Relaxing Home Away From Home <3

Pet care experience

My name is Alison and I've been boarding dogs professionally for over 15 years. My experience, knowledge & love for animal care spans two decades. My husband Jason is also an animal lover and works from home. I've always had a love for animals but found my calling working at a pet care facility in Brooklyn after college. From great danes to chihuahuas, I've cared for a wide range of dogs. My responsibilities included taking the dogs on group walks, giving baths, transporting them to and from the facility, doing drop-in visits and training new employees. After learning and honing my skills there I started my own company, The Pawkeepsie Canine Club LLC! We offer dog boarding and daycare in our home, but we are currently at capacity for daycare. A meet & greet or a trial session of daycare is required for all new clients. We ask that your dog have a moderate to low energy level as we like to keep a fun but also relaxing environment for the dogs that stay with us. That's what makes our comfy at-home setting unique & sets us apart from conventional boarding facilities or daycare centers which can be chaotic and stressful for some dogs. Unlike many other sitters, we only care for up to 3 dogs at a time. So you can be sure that they're getting the same level of care that they would get at home ❤️

Thank you very much. We had an amazing experience! I felt confident that Dottie is in good hands and we received regular updates and pictures which was really nice. The space she was in was very pet friendly, clean, and welcoming. Alison & Jason are trustworthy and a great care givers.

Thank you! We were able to enjoy our day out without worrying about Sophie. Everything was great. (I can't believe you even washed her food bowl - thank you!!)

Alison and Jason took excellent care of Mischa while I was away. Mischa had hurt her paw just prior to my leaving and still needed special care which Alison and Jason provided. They sent me daily updates and pictures. Mischa was very well cared for and enjoyed her stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Our home is a safe & calm space for your dog to feel comfy while you're away. We own a spacious two bedroom house in the town of Poughkeepsie. Our yard is fully fenced with 6 ft privacy fencing. We've got lots of dog beds, toys and pet gates. We always keep a neat and clean environment for the pups, and allow them on our couch or bed if they like while they stay with us. We want them to feel at home here! We normally take about 4-5 potty breaks per day, so the dogs can get exercise or play fetch and lots of chances to do their business. We ask that your dog be fully potty trained. While we know that accidents happen, if your pup has repeated accidents we will have to apply an additional charge for the cost of cleaning supplies and/or doggy diapers if needed. You’ll always get photos, videos and regular updates of your dog while they're here. I'm available via phone or text and try to be as flexible as I can to help meet your pet's needs. I will always treat your fur babies just as I would my own. With lots of love and patience!

Information Alison & Jason A. would like to know about your pet

All dogs must be up to date on vaccinations and heartworm/flea/tick prevention treatments. I would like to learn about your dog's normal routine, potty schedule & feeding instructions. Any favorite toys, treats or activities they enjoy. Also if they have any behavioral tendencies, medical issues or allergies I would like to know beforehand to keep them as happy and safe as I can. Be sure to supply us with a leash, a collar with tags and if using a harness please make sure it fits securely.

A typical day

One of my favorite clients, Lola, loves to cuddle and take slow paced walks. She has dental issues, so I brush her teeth. Then she gets a dental chew treat. Your pet will get the same treatment as Lola, completely catered to their needs. I don't mind administering meds or giving some extra care if they need it. Maybe your dog is more playful? We'll have lots of play sessions in the backyard, which is fully fenced, or go for long walks. Every dog is unique, so we will tailor our care plan based on your dog's specific needs & personality.
