Dog Boarding in Saint Albans

Hello! My name is Marty. I am retired and am at home most of every day. My husband, Brian (also retired), and I have always had pets and are animal lovers. We have one dog and one cat of our own. We are also keeping our son’s German Shepherd until March 2020 while he’s deployed with the military. Ace is excellent with other dogs (cats - not so much).

Requirements for your pet:

- must get along with cats

- be spayed/neutered

- up to date on vaccines

- current with flea treatment

Our home has a large yard (partially fenced) which is ideal for animals. Rest assured that if your pet is not in the fenced area, he/she will be leashed to potty or for walks.

If you choose to leave your pet with us, it will be treated like our own. We will keep their same daily routine. If he/she sleeps in your bed, he will sleep in our bed as well. We will make your pet feel right at home

Drop off no earlier than 7 AM and pick up no later than 7 PM.

A meet 'n greet is required.

Toffy is a 6 year old English Springer Spaniel. He had the sweetest personality and loves to meet new friends. He has greeted each friend here with open paws. If the friend is active and enjoys playing then Toffy will play but if the friend doesn't seem interested in playing then Toffy seems to have a sense to just chill and hang. Toffy loves to meet and greet people. He thinks everyone is a friend and he doesn't know a stanger.

We live in a two story home. Toffy has full roam of the house. If a friend is visiting then we generally make sure the bedrooms and bathroom doors are closed.

Toffy is a food hound and loves to eat. I think he would eat all day if I let him. So we have to keep the trashcan behind a closed door and all counters clear of food. This will help protect any friends staying with him, especially those counter surfers. I know Toffy becomes a ninja when I'm not looking and any food is left on the counter. Haha

We have a sunroom that leads out inti a fenced in backyard.

If your furbaby is used to being crated, we have a large crate here that you are more than welcome to borrow for the stay or you can bring yours along. When Toffy was young we crate trained him then slowly weaned him off the crate.

We try and keep the house clean. So we ask that your furbaby be house trained. Accidents are acceptable and understandable in any new environment and are easily cleaned up.

Thanks for checking into a stay with Toffy.

Hello! My name is Katy, and I absolutely love animals of all kinds. I’ve had dogs, cats, hamsters, rats, horses, and other various animals for my entire life, and have pet sit for multiple families with dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, horses, donkeys, cows, and even pigs of various ages, sizes, and health concerns. I’m comfortable giving medicine, helping with basic training, and just generally treating your baby as part of the family. I currently work as a veterinary assistant, and although this keeps me busy, my schedule changes often and I only work 4 days a week. I could keep your fur baby almost any night, and would love to take them on walks. I would love to get to know your pet and give them a home away from home!

I have had dogs for years. I worked for Guiding Eyes for the Blind, a guide dog organization for 10 years caring for over 500 puppies a year and fostering breeders. My knowledge of dog training and caring is extensive. I have taken classes in dog first aid and CPR. Your dog will have the best care with me. I enjoy their company and love all sizes and breeds. My house is dog friendly with a fenced in back yard. I can also offer dog walking in a quiet neighborhood, dog training, and nail clipping. I have a mini Jack Russell born in Ireland. He is 9 years old and loves all dogs of every size. He would be a great playmate for your dog.

I love dogs and think everyone needs at least one! I work during the day but would love to help care for your fur baby on lunch breaks, in the evenings, or on weekends. If you need boarding at my place they will have socialization with my two dogs, a fenced yard, and daily walks (weather permitting). If your pup is not a fan of being social I can set up a separate room for him/her in a bedroom or the family room. But I'm sure they will enjoy lounging with my dogs on my bed or patrolling the neighborhood from the front deck/window. I have multiple dog beds/pillows available for the choosing. But if your dog needs a crate or cage, you will need to provide one.

Hi! My name is Lexi, and I love animals of all kinds. I currently work in customer service doing tech support at a call center, but during my off time I love to spend time with animals. I have experience owning or caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, chinchillas, donkeys, cows, and even pigs. I’m comfortable giving medicine or caring for pets with special needs. I’m generally available to take care of your babies all day Wednesday or Thursday, and after 5:00 PM Friday through Tuesday. I can also make special arrangements if needed. I want to make the process as easy as possible for you! I promise I will take care of and love your pet as if they were my own!

I am a pet parent myself and currently work for Blue Buffalo engaging and connecting with parents. Animals are my passion. I have one dog and 3 cats in my home. I only ask that your pup loves my cats as much as my dog does. I am flexible and very easy to work with.

As a pet parent I understand the accountability it takes to be in this industry and the importance of reassuring the pet parent that their babies are well taken care of while they are away. It’s likely I will keep you updated via text with pictures of your babies as I love to photograph as well.

Feel free to ask questions as it is important that the owner of his/her pet staying with me is comfortable and reassured of the visit. I can provide excellent references and have an excellent track record and work history. I am also registered on Care.

When caring for your pet I will treat them as my own. I also can board cats too.

Nothing is more important than having fun and energetic companionship for the fur babies! I have been an animal lover my entire life (having dogs, cats, rabbits- you name it!) and their companionship can not be matched. Equally important is the companionship we can give. Playtime, snuggles, adventures and yummy healthy treats await! I live close to several parks with great walking trails and have a nice front yard for plays. Being outside is super important to me so we will definitely be burning that energy while you’re at work! As a mama, I know how important it is to know your little one is safe. We will send you pictures and updates throughout the day so you know your furry loved one is doing great and having a blast!

Save $20.00 off your first booking. Go to (https://www.rover.com/sit/) then Type in code (JEREMW73529). I have cared for dogs and cats for the past 25 years, from 2 lbs to 125lbs. I am a US military veteran, I love my family (pets included) and I love my country. I have extensive knowledge/experience administering medication, both oral and IM. I have been employed as a nurse for the past 8 years, and worked some interesting shifts/hours. My wife and I recently made a decision to extend our family, and was blessed with a baby girl. There were a couple health concerns, and that motivated our decision for me to spend less time on shift work, and more time with our daughter. Thus prompting me to seek alternative ways to balance time with family, and financial obligations. In short, it has led me to your loved pet here on Rover.com. It would be a true blessing to spend the much needed time with my daughter, and an honor to care for your family’s beloved pet. I do think of my pets as members of our family. Please rest assured knowing your pets will be treated with love and compassion. I do not smoke, drink alcohol or do any type of recreational drugs. I don't t think you should have to worry about your pets wellbeing while you are away. Thank you for taking the time to read my page, and I hope you have a blessed day.

I grew up with animals and have had pets for the last 22 years, both cats and dogs. Our home is currently pet-free, but my kids and i pet-sit our neighbors, and other family members, animals from time to time. We also volunteer at local shelters regularly. We lost both our elderly dogs this year, and enjoy the company of pets that pet-sitting and volunteering bring us, as a family.

We are a homeschooling family so we are available throughout the week, day and night. We do travel occasionally for field trips and family events, so we will be available on an "as-needed" basis, for your overnight and vacation needs.

There are five of us in the home; my husband and I, and our three children, ages 11-17. We have a four bedroom, two bath home with a chain-link fenced back yard. It is well shaded with a deck and patio. We hike local trails weekly, as weather allows, and have a wonderful neighborhood with a park and pond. We have a dog park in our city and in the neighboring one as well.
