Dog Boarding in Watervliet

My doggies had the best time at Clara’s! I have pretty anxious dogs, one being more hesitant with strangers than the other and they fit right in. I know it’s thanks to the accommodations and great care Clara has set. Highest of recommendations and will continue to bring my dogs back for as long as she’ll have us!

Brad and his family did an excellent job taking care of Birdie for almost 2 weeks. I never had to worry, got lots of pictures, and my pup was happy when I arrived.

I cannot say enough positive things about Madison! We are so grateful we found her to watch our pup Mowgli. Madison is a true dog lover and provides the absolutely best care for each and every dog. She went above and beyond to give Mowgli the 1:1 attention and care he needed and helped instill confidence in our puppy around her own dogs. She was very attentive and communicative and we could tell Mowgli was extremely happy and relaxed in her care. I cannot recommend Madison enough!!

Amber and family took great care of Chloe. Our pup seemed happy to be part of their family for the 11 days we were gone. Amber kept us updated daily with photos. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing our fur baby was well cared for.

Was able to watch my dogs on very short notice and kept us updated with photos throughout the day. My dogs aren’t easy but they did a great job.

Jeremiah boarded our dog and cat for just over a week and they came home happy and well cared for! We would definitely trust them with him again.

Alydia did a great job with my dog! He was well taken care of and Alydia kept me posted with how he was doing.

Our dog had a other great stay with Julie! She always takes such good care of our boy. We never have to worry when we leave him in Julie's care.

Bash had his first long stay at Lucy’s and she communicated every day with updates and pictures. He came home tired but relaxed which shows he was comfortable with her all week!

Amanda made the last-minute booking process so easy! She explained how she introduces her dogs and other dogs she may be watching to minimize any potential for conflict, which really put my mind at ease. The way her house is set up she uses different levels, rooms, and gates to keep dogs separated if needed. Greta was nervous to be dropped off, and seemed anxious in the first couple (totally unprompted!!) photo updates, as this was her first time in a Rover stay, but by the end of the night, Amanda sent me a little video of her playing in the (fenced) backyard. As others have mentioned, the photo/ video updates that Amanda automatically sends really helped me to know she was doing ok, and helped me to enjoy my evening. I texted Amanda when I was a couple minutes away, and she had Greta pottied, leashed, and basically at the driveway for an extremely efficient pickup. She was a nice person also, which made it easy to trust her with Greta.

Olivia (and Sara and Xara!) were great - lowkey, friendly, excellent communicators, and experienced. We felt totally at ease leaving Scout in their care! Thanks again :)

Highly recommend booking with Leandra. She was absolutely wonderful with our special needs dog who had never been cared for by anyone outside of family. We had such peace of mind during our wedding week knowing our pup was in great hands. It was quite apparent that she is an animal lover. She was great at communicating, giving updates, and sending photos. Would absolutely book with her again in the future.

Jenny is a dog whisperer! I have Covid dog with anxiety and she took care of him for the first of many times! “Trust” is the only word I can write that sums her all up for me. And Jonas (her dog) is the sweetest teacher!

Vanya was absolutely amazing with my dog! She and her family knew how to handle my (usually) timid dog and brought out the best of my pup! She sent so many pictures and updates which made me feel very relaxed and reassured knowing my dog was in good care 24/7. Will definitely be booking with Vanya again for both of my dogs!

Danielle was wonderful and so kind with my fur baby. Her property is lovely and appreciate how thorough she is with dog care. Truly a wealth of knowledge with dog car/precautions and I'm thankful I found her.

Kevin was great! He sent updates with pictures to help us feel at ease during our dog’s stay. We’re super thankful for his kindness and will recommend to friends & book again!
