Dog Boarding in Nichols, NY

“During the introduction meeting Carolina and her family were all so welcoming and kind and Carolina was obviously on point professionally so I was completely comfortable with leaving Onyx with them. The appointment went very smoothly and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog-sitter.”

“At first we were nervous to leave our dog Brutus, because he has never ever been away from us! After the meet & greet with Steve we knew he would be the perfect match for what we were looking for. Brutus had a great time, we received emails & photo updates, & we are very comfortable with his care... He came home exhausted from all the fun he had! We will highly recommend Steve to our friends, & would definitely use him in the future! Thanks DogVacay for helping us find Steve & Patty!”

About: Aside from my own pets over the years, I’ve also provided care and comfort to pets of family and friends. Whether in my home or yours, I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I know how hard it is to find a safe place for our fur babies when we have to travel. Our pittie mutt, Hank, can’t wait to meet your pups! I recently retired after 36 years of teaching and have lots of free time to care for your fur babies. We have a large fenced in deck (and pool for our swimmers). Our 12 acres are not fenced but are cleared for easy walks, on or off lead as desired. Our home sits well off the main road. We’re not opposed to taking pups for rides in our side by side. House trained dogs have freedom in our home. We’re suckers who allow pets on furniture and provide all the love and cuddles needed to make them comfortable. We have plenty of room for crates if your pup is more comfortable in one. In your home, I will follow your house rules. Depending on location, I can come and visit or stay overnight. I can bring mail and packages in for you and take care of your plants. 🪴

“Janet is the best sitter ever! She loves my little diva and treats her like her own fur-baby. She is so sweet and kind, so caring and truly enjoys what she does. I will 100% use Janet whenever I'm out of town, because I know my little doggie will be well-cared for, and let's just say it, truly spoilt - which I love! Janet is the best!”

“We highly recommend Amy! Amy was very welcoming and listened to my concerns at drop off. We were able to relax and enjoy our visit with family knowing that our girls were being so well cared for. We got pictures and updates daily and could see that the girls were having a good time. We will definitely contact Amy next time we come out this way.”

“Luann clearly has a deep love and passion for what she does. She embraced my nutty dog with open arms. Her home is neat and clean and rivals some commercial facilities as she has two separate fenced in outdoor spaces. She sent regular updates on my guy. We have been home a while and my pup keeps going to the door. I think he wants to go back! I highly recommend her!”

“Bee was a very nice and welcoming dog sitter! She has a very friendly dog, a huge beautiful yard and home that was perfect for my Mastiff to play in. She took notes on my feeding routines, sent pics during the stay and responds quickly to messages for any questions or concerns. She has a great connection with dogs that made my dog feel right at home and I'd definitely use her service in the future.”
