Doggy Day Care in Riparius

“Brandy was excellent. She was able to accommodate a last minute pet sitting and communicated often updates on Dakota. She was so sweet and Dakota had a great time. 10/10”

“Shari made our dog feel right at home! We couldnt have asked for a better caregiver for Hendrix! He met plenty of other dogs, went swimming, walking and had a great time. Shari sent us pictures of his advernures throughout the day and you could tell how he happy he was. Best dog sitter ever!!! Highly recommend!!!”

About: I love all animals!!! I really enjoy coming to your house and playing with your precious babies. I have cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds, turtles, and yes even snakes. I’ve even experienced breeding and nurturing 11 golden retrievers (3 adults and 8 puppies) at one time. I will come to your house to LOVE, feed, water, play, brush, walk, talk to, and even car rides with your beautiful pets. I’ve also been known to mop, water your plants, retrieve your mail, and take your garbage to the street. On numerous occasions, I’ve taken on jobs in Massachusetts and Vermont as mini vacations! I have a bubbly and friendly personality that animals respond well too! Reasonable rates, flexible hours, and many satisfied customers! I am retired from the county, which allows me to provide full time care to all my fury friends! I travel distances to watch your babies and occasionally welcome your pet to stay at my house. My goal is to watch pups in their own environment. It’s always difficult when Mom and Dad go away, but they are definitely less stressed if they get to stay home. This way they can feel safe and comfortable in their own surroundings

About: I have been an animal lover since I was a young child (when I found out where meat came from at age 4, I became a vegetarian… if that tells you anything!) I was an adoring dog owner until 2023 when my beloved Oak (picture above) went over the rainbow bridge. I haven’t gotten another pup yet, but I love spending time with others’ companions in the meantime while I wait to meet my next soul dog! I am very attentive and encourage owners to give me detailed instructions on feeding, medications, behavioral tendencies, and any little important idiosyncrasies; I know what it’s like to leave your baby with someone else, and building trust alongside solid communication is incredibly important. I’m excited to start this new side quest and meet some new friends (furry ones and human ones alike)! I work from home! So I have flexibility and am good with short notice. Having a pup around brightens my day. It feels like they help me as much as I help them! I live in a pet-friendly building in a walkable part of downtown Glens Falls where we can frolic (leashed of course) to our hearts’ content! I’m right around the corner from the dog park if your pup likes to play with others, if not, we can stroll to Crandall or around town. I will always follow your lead and stick to your pets’ preferred routine. I like to ask questions, send updates/photos, and ensure your pup is feeling at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and have helped care for them from puppy to senior. I’ve been caring for my cats for the last 3 years. I have a deep love for animals and often care for strays when I can. I’m familiar with feeding, walking, and giving medication, and I’m reliable and attentive with every pet. I don’t start my next semester of college until September, so I’m very free and flexible throughout the summer. I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care right now and can work around different schedules. Once school starts, I still plan to keep pet care in my routine with good availability outside of classes. I have a safe and calm environment for pets in my home. I have one small dog and two small cats, but they can easily be kept in separate areas if needed. I have a decent backyard for outdoor time, and my neighborhood has sidewalks, so walking dogs is easy and safe. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and care for them like I would my own.
