The Dog House In Dobbs Ferry

12/31/2023

I’m so grateful and appreciative of the owners who have entrusted their special 4 legged children into my care. Thank you for sharing them with me and thank you to the pups for supplying me with unlimited amounts of dopamine and oxytocin throughout the year. Hoping for something just like this in 2024!!!

If your dog has never boarded before I highly recommend finding a place now and begin to adjust your dog to a new environment in advance of your trip.

As a vet tech, I would never take my dog to the dog park or any large daycare center! Instead provide your dog with a more controlled environment and professional supervision.
I offer doggie play dates, daycare and over night boarding. All dogs have been carefully screened and are fully vaccinated. I keep numbers low for safety and introduce new dogs through a series of short visits at your dog’s pace.
I provide a cozy at-home setting with a fully fenced in yard with plenty of room to roam and do zoomies!
I have over 20 years experience working with animals. I worked as a LVT for 7 years and have been working with dogs exclusively for the past 12 years.
For more info call 914-536-5669 and ask for Michelle Rivera, LVT

Summer☀️ is almost here & the time is right to …Get your Dog used to boarding!!!

I’m Michelle! A licensed veterinary technician that provides daycare and overnight boarding from my home. I’ve been a licensed vet tech since 2007 and have a total of 18 years experiencing working professionally with animals. 12 of which I’ve dedicated solely to providing a safe and loving space for dogs to board.

Dogs are pack animals and separation is abnormal to them. Hence why they follow you everywhere…even to the bathroom! 🚽 🐕 🤦‍♀️
Being separated from the pack can cause stress, anxiety, depression and physical illness when not properly adjusted to a new environment.

Through my years of experience, I’ve found that not all dogs are ready to board last minute. A more sensitive dog may require more time to adjust than other social butterPups. It’s always a good idea to find a place that suits your dogs needs well in advance of your trip.

Call or text to schedule a free consultation today!

Typical morning. Flash sure loves his 1st and 2nd breakfast. He gets Cheerios before his actual meal. This is certainly one way I love to spoil all of my four legged guests. Home away from home 🏡❤️. While you vacation your pup can have his own dog-cation. 🐶 🥰 I am also a veterinary technician capable of caring after senior dogs, diabetics, ect..

At home setting style boarding. I created this service for dogs that are too sensitive to be placed in a kennel. In my care I try to simulate their normal routine and allow them the same comforts that would normally receive while at home. Please call to inquire about rates and vaccination requirements.

Say Hi to Maggio!!! He’s one of our frequent flyers. Maggio is a rescue and sadly has a history of abuse. Maggio is great with other dogs but is not so trusting of humans. It took a while to get him to trust me but as you can see in the photos it was well worth the time and patience to get a loving lick from this guy!
