Doggy Day Care in Rensselaer

“This was our first time to use Rover, and we hit the jackpot with Patty! We were traveling, and her home was close to the event we were attending. When we warned her that our pup is very vocal in new situations, she joked that our pup would be welcomed by her sweet pups with equal enthusiasm. She was right and completely amused with the "party". Later we received photos of all the dogs just lounging around her home after they finished their initial greeting. Patty is just a natural with dogs, and we will definitely call her if we ever need care for our pup while we are visiting in her area. We wish she was closer to our home - this would be a fun day out for our pup on a more frequent basis.”

About: My husband and I have been dog owners for many years. We recently lost our Yorkie, Sage, at age 12 to cancer. We decided to not get another dog at this time, but would love to be a pet sitter for your precious pup. Both my husband and I are retired and have regular availability. One of us is home at most times. We would require to meet your pup before the stay to ensure good compatibility. We would walk your dog on a leash. Our yard is large, but not fenced. Easy access for potty breaks. We will have open access to our home unless crating is your preference.

“Very accommodating on such short notice! Sent plenty of pictures of our precious Charlie boy during his daycare stay to let us know he was doing ok! Our dog seemed really comfortable and calm in her care! We will use her again in the future!”
