Doggy Day Care in Second Avenue, Albany, NY

“Mark & Sylva were great hosts for my dog when we needed a few hours of care while my son toured a nearby college. They were welcoming and kind and did a great job with her. I'd happily book again if we're in Troy in the future. Thank you!”

“Cheryle is great! She sent pictures during the day which made us feel very comfortable that our dog was nice and relaxed and enjoys being with Cheryle and her dog. Her house is set up very nice and the backyard too. I would highly recommend Cheryle!”

“We wanted our pup to get more socializing during the day while we are at work and Maegan turned out to be perfect. She is very responsive, flexible with our drop off and pick up times, and very trustworthy. Her and her family are also very kind and sweet and they make a great home for our pup to enjoy during the day. They have a dog of their own and she watches other dogs on occasion as well and everyone gets along great because of Maegan. We can’t thank her enough for how she cares for our dog.”

“Accommodated a last minute booking. Great communication. Home well suited for dogs and dog-focused. Roxy seemed quite happy when we picked her up.”

“I feel like my dog took a vacation. He was happy from the moment I dropped him off with Stephanie. He cc was happy, had so much fun and Stephanie made sure to share pics and videos with me all throughout the day. So thankful I found her.”

“Logan is a great pet sitter! He's very knowledgeable, friendly, and provides a home-like environment while allowing for space and downtime amongst the few other dogs he may have at that time.. He is accommodating to your pet's individual needs and personality which is comforting when you've got a dog that is slow to warm up! We've used him for daycare and plan to board with him as well! Thanks, Logan 🤗”

“Ripley had a wonderful day with Kristine and Flynn! My girl (and myself) has some anxiety quirks, but between Kristine and her husband being such genuine pet loving people, and how great Flynn is with other dogs, it was truly a wonderful experience. Ripley was happy and pooped when she came home! We look forward to our next daycare and sleepover. Thank you so much again, Kristine!”

I am carful and safe walking dogs as i have had to walk three dogs together growing up with all three in the house.

“Emily is one of the most caring and responsible people you will ever meet. She loved and took care of my pup as if it were her own and I never worried a minute with having my dog in her care - and my pup looked forward to visits from Aunt Emily! Sadly we no longer live in the same city so I can't count on her dog-sitting anymore, but my loss is your gain!”

“She was attentive and sent pictures of the walk and playing with both doggies”

“Cache is top tier! Everytime Yugi even gets near her place he runs to the door and can't wait to hangout. I would reco her to anyone!”

About: Ever since I was four years old I had my first puppy. I loved her with everything I had, I believe that love me and my family gave her made her have such a long life. She was a Pomeranian and chiwawa mix, she was said to live till 6 she lived till 15. I have also rescued each of my pets so I understand how to handle and gain trust from anxiety and scared dogs. I also have experience with puppies so I expect to have to clean messes and I am fine with that. I am 100% a dog person. I want dogs to be living their best lives and give them as much love as they give us. I handle stressful and intense situations well, I am good under pressure. I love all dogs little chiwawas to huge great danes, no pup phases me. I am also felxible! I currently work from home which makes dog care easily in my schedule. I have a dog in my apartment named Elton and I go by his schedule. We go on both a walk and to the park everyday. In home I like to keep my dog busy with toys and running around. When he needs outside time I will bring him on walks or to the park. I know of both a park with no dogs for those who prefer alone time and parks with kind dogs for those who like to play.

“Stephanie was awesome! She took our dog, Waylon, for a few hours and hike we visited family, and I would definitely drop him off with her again if we’re in town. She made us feel very comfortable and she took great care of him. Thank you!”
