Dog Boarding in Troy

“Michelle is an amazing and caring dog sitter. She worked with me as my dates changed which helped me a great deal. She's also well knowledgeable about dog's behavior. I will hire her again for my dog, Josie.”

“Great experience for our first time boarding our dog. Kennels are clean. Owners are flexible with drop off and pick up arrangements. She sent videos so that I could see that my pup was happy and doing well. My dog came back happy and healthy with no issues adjusting back to being home. Highly recommend!”

“Our dog loves Christine! We love getting regular updates on how he is doing through his stay, and he’s excited to go stay with her family when we can’t bring him along.”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my strong experience working with dogs and puppies of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with pets belonging to family and friends, which helped me build a solid foundation of hands-on experience with dogs in everyday home environments. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need while learning routines like potty training, crate training, leash walking, and basic commands. I also enjoy helping reinforce positive behaviors through structure, repetition, and lots of encouragement. For adult dogs, I adapt easily to their personality—whether they are high-energy and need plenty of exercise or more relaxed and prefer a calm routine. I also have experience with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, and behavioral cues, so they feel secure and understood while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my availability in the afternoons and evenings. Since I work part time, I have ample time during the day to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy spending my evenings going on walks, which would make it easy and consistent for me to provide daily exercise and outdoor time. I also look forward to using my free time for play, feeding, and bonding activities that help build trust and comfort with pets. In my home or a client’s home, I provide pet care with consistency, attentiveness, and respect for the animal’s routine and comfort level. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication instructions if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. I make sure pets always have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean, safe environment. I prioritize daily exercise and enrichment through walks, playtime, and interaction suited to the pet’s age, energy level, and personality. I also focus on building trust through calm, patient handling and positive attention. In a client’s home, I am mindful of maintaining the space exactly as instructed, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand the importance of routine, so I do my best to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for the pet while their owner is away. Overall, my approach is to care for each pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and responsible care tailored to their individual needs

“We’re so happy we have you to watch Bucky! And he seems like he LOVES being there. We’re still so shocked that he actually cuddles with other dogs and your cat!”

“Paige was excellent and Sadie seemed to enjoy her stay. I received consistent updates, photos, and responses. I would recommend Paige and will use them as my preferred sitter going forward.”

“Jordan was wonderful about a last minute date change which totally saved the day. Her whole family seemed happy to have our pup join them and their dog was really chill about having a guest as well. She was very responsive to texts and our dog seemed happy and rested at the end, which is never the case with kennels. Will definitely use again.”

“Ashlee is AMAZING! She took such great care of my fur babies. One of my dogs is quite timid, but she warmed up to Ashlee immediately! She also was so understanding that one of my dogs still has accidents from time to time. She wasn’t fazed at all by that. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my fur babies were safe and taken care of! Will definitely be using Ashlee again! Absolutely the perfect dog sitter!”

Katrina M.

“Ashleigh & Bill were very accommodating and took excellent care of my dog. They sent updates everyday and had impeccably customer service. If i have to go out of town again i know the number one place to leave me dog. Thanks so much”

“Angel is great with our dogs! She is very accommodating, shares updates (with photos too) throughout their stay, and you can tell she loves what she does.”

About: I have owned dogs, cats, horses, chickens, cows, fish and birds. I love animals and I currently have none! I believe in treating a pet with the same respect that I want to be treated. I am very patient and understanding of various personality traits and needs. I am a full time teacher so I am available outside of the teaching time and during my breaks and days off! I am very flexible. I have the week of Thanksgiving off work, plus 2 1/2 weeks at Christmas and I have weekends, evenings and early morning available. If you need the pet to stay at my house, that's no problem, either. I have a fenced in yard and pet-friendly furniture. I treat pets like humans, I have a fenced in yard and I give lots of attention. I can go for walks if needed and I have pet friendly furniture. I can also come to your house, too. I am open to whatever works for you and your pet.

“Bill was great, we felt very comfortable leaving our dog with him for the week. He was able to give our dog his medication, took him on daily walks, and gave him lots of love and attention!”

Ashley L.

“Angela made our Gabby feel at home. She sent us pictures while we were on Vaca. The pictures made us feel so good we had Angela watch her. Thanks Angela!”

Dean N.

“Daisy and her family are wonderful! They just loved on Sadie like their own. I think Sadie suffered a little withdrawal from playing with the other dogs for a week when she came home. She missed her buddies and her home away from home. A week later she is going back for another overnight stay!”

Annetta W.

“Really nice people and the dogs were well taken care of”

Carl D.

“Lisa was amazing. I received daily updates with pictures, which calmed my nerves since Bailey never said with anyone but family. I will definitely use her again and will recommend her to anybody that needs a dog sitter”

Gary P.

“Hatsuki took great care of our dog Chloe! She sent frequent updates and pictures about how Chloe was doing. At the end of the visit Hatsuki provided me with an extensive summary about Chloe's stay. I felt completely comfortable leaving Chloe with her and highly recommend her.”

Bernice D.

“Goldie, being a rescue, is a really anxious and apprehensive dog. Lydia was awesome with her, she has the expertise (being a foster for a rescue) to make the dog feel comfortable and safe. Goldie was really spoiled in her stay, we also ran into a delay in our trip and Lydia was awesome and understanding. I totally recommend her for sitting your dog!!”

Mariana C.

“Kyri was an excellent dog sitter for Clover! She responded promptly to messages, including my late request for booking, and provided updates and pics of Clover while I was away. She was very accommodating for my senior blind dog and gave her medication (my dog is also diabetic and requires insulin). It was easy to coordinate pick-up and drop-off times. I did not worry about Clover's well being while I was away. I will definitely book with Kyri again!”

Natalie M.

“Casey is fantastic. She did an excellent job with Chewy. We appreciate the care and attention he received and her willingness to accommodate our last-minute travel arrangements.”
