Alan S. (Yuki’s dad)
“Alexis is amazing!! She absolutely loves dogs (and cats). Our dog, Yuki, had a great time at her house. She has a very large back yard and plenty of toys. She is very attentive sending many updates, pictures, and videos; and provides a lot of attention to our ‘needy’ dog. I highly recommend Alexis, she is the best by far.”
Karen S. (Archie’s mom)
“Alexis was great! I knew from our first meeting that not only was this her passion, but it is her calling. When my pup Archie and I went for the meet and greet she slowly introduced each dog in her care to Archie. She sent updates during his stay to let me know how he was adjusting to his new friends. I picked him up clean, fed, and ready for a nap! He has so much fun. We will definitely be repeat clients. Highly recommended! Thank you Alexis!”
Taylor G. (Gus’ mom)
“Alexis was amazing! She responds so quickly and is very organized with everything. My dog had so much fun with the other dogs that he didn't even realize I was gone. I like the personable experience that he gets at her home and the fenced in yard is perfect for letting the dogs play outside. She pays attention to each dog's needs and makes sure they're all getting along. She also provides video and photo updates to reassure you that your dog is doing great. I highly recommend!!”
Dawn B. (Maxwell’s mom)
“I am above and beyond pleased with the care Alexis gave my 15 year old dog. He stayed for the night on Thanksgiving. She sent us pictures and gave us updates. When we went to pick him up he came to say hello and then trotted off to the living room like he owned the place. Normally on the skittish side, he became very comfortable very quickly. We will actually be booking her again in December for our week long getaway. Highly recommend. She is now our go to and we don’t have to worry about his well being at all. Thank you Alexis!”
Tamer (Muffin’s dad)
“Alexis is the best dog sitter we had, she took care of Muffin as one of her own pets, she bathed her and took the best pictures of her. It was like a spa for my dog”
Kevin F. (Remi’s dad)
“Alexis took great care of my one-year-old Remi. We met up prior to the booking and she seems to really understand how to provide good pet care. She’s very friendly, flexible and easy to work with. Thanks again Alexis, Remi was a potato when he got home and even cried a little in the car after leaving his new friends!”
Karima B. (Felix’s mom)
“Alexis was great with both Felix and the family. Always patient with unexpected issues like having to switch the schedule last minute, homesickness from our dog, and more. We are so happy we found her in time.”
Arianna M. (Zeba’s mom) Zeba unfortunately has passed on and not listed in clients
“This woman goes above and beyond to help make sure your pets are feeling right at home! She went so far as to help take my dog to the vet and set alarms for each hour she had to give medication to her and my poor doggo was on two different kinds twice a day and at different hours. If you want someone to treat your pet just like her own, then this is the one for you. You will not regret ever leaving your dog with her and her dogs are the absolute sweetest and get along with everyone ☺️”
Eric G. (Billie’s dad)
“Bark and Breakfast, I can’t say enough how awesome my dogs experiences have been. Alexis has incredible knowledge and care for her animals. From day to overnight visits. The animals have full range of the house, which is fantastic, never locked up in a cage. Always goes out of her way to make the customer happy from humans to animals. would highly recommend.”
Susan M. (Eamon and Rian’s mom)
“She took such great care of my terriers. She sent pictures of them which was reassuring that they were having a good time. Highly recommended”
Illya W. (Tez’s dad) - Tez is Margot’s biological father
“I actually connected with Alexis through her love for pets, we where friends for awhile but really came close when my dog got pregnant with her puppies. Alexis was looking for a dog right at the time mine was having them. I just remember her being so anxious and texting me everyday about them and when she could take one. She was coming over a lot to build her relationship with Margot and ultimately took her home forever! She loves my dog to death and takes him whenever she wants. I rarely even let my dog swim and get back in my car unprepared, but her on the other hand she doesn't mind one bit and she has a beautiful BMW just shows you the love she has for animals in general not just her own. Everything she does for the most part revolves around her pets and i'm very glad to have her around and involved with me and my dog. Having someone around to care and love for your dog when you cant as much is so humbling and I thank her for that always!”
Brittany M. (Kyro’s mom)
“Alexis is an educated loving pet caregiver. When I called Alexis worried about my husky having a tick she came over right away and helped remove it. She’s super energetic and loves animals. Alexis takes her own dogs on hikes almost everyday and is enthusiastic for others to join. My pup was a rescue and was bullied by other dogs and her animals were welcoming to my husky and played amazing together. I highly recommended Alexis!!!”
Michael C. (Stella’s dad)
“Alexis was amazing! She truly devotes her full self to making sure all the dogs she watches are loved and cared for during their stay. She kept me updated with pictures during the entire time and communicated well. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog who will really go the extra mile.”
Anthony (Nina’s dad)
“I’ve had the pleasure of having Alexis watch my dog, Nina, and I can confidently say that she is an outstanding dog sitter. From the start, Alexis made an effort to get to know Nina and her routines, preferences which really put me at ease. Alexis is extremely reliable and punctual, always showing up exactly when agreed upon, and she’s consistently flexible if my plans change last-minute. I always receive timely updates, including photos and videos, which makes me feel connected to my dog even when I’m away. It’s clear from the updates that Nina loves spending time with Alexis. What truly sets Alexis apart is her genuine care for my dog’s well-being. I’ve noticed that my dog seems even more relaxed and happy when I return home, which speaks to the level of care Alexis provides. I wholeheartedly recommend Alexis to anyone in need of a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy dog sitter. I always feel confident that my dog is in great hands when she’s around.”
Michael A. (Isabelle’s dad)
“Had a great experience! Alexis was a great communicator and even sent pictures and videos of my chorki Isabelle on a daily basis while I was out of town. Would highly recommend and use again.”
Derek (Summer’s dad)
“Outstanding service and she’s wonderful with my dog. Sending me updates with pictures throughout her stay makes me confident she is being well cared for!”

Sarina B. (Rex’s mom)
“Thank you for taking care of our baby, Rex.”
Cordilla E. (Ubba’s mom)
“Alexis is the best dog sitter you could hope for. She is so good with our dog and he is always happy when he’s there. She is also a very good communicator always sending updates, pictures, etc. I love that she is an option for us!”
Ethan L. (Roman’s dad)
“Alexis is absolutely the best for dog boarding and daycare in the Binghamton area. She always goes above and beyond and has shown incredible care and patience with my dog from the first day we met her. She is very responsive and will always send pictures/videos throughout the stay. There is nothing like the peace of mind from knowing that I am leaving my dog with someone who truly cares.”
Jonathan M. (Bubz’s dad)
“My dog Bubz, an older chocolate lab, has stayed with Alexis overnight on several occasions and it’s been smooth sailing each time! Alexis gives constant communication and is helpful with the fact that Bubz doesn’t do great with stairs anymore (hips!) and gets joint medicine with his food. Will continue to rely on Alexis for great dog sitting in the future!”
Michele F. (Jackson’s mom)
“Highly recommend! The love and care Alexis gives each and every pup/dog she cares for shows. Very accommodating to the needs of your pet. You won’t be disappointed she cares for them like they are her own. Thank you!”
Monika (Beau’s mom)
“Alexis is great! I appreciate that she sends picture updates, the dogs are in a cozy home environment with a large yard to run in, and that she does meet and greets first with new clients, ensuring all of the dogs are safe. My special needs (deaf) pup loves her.”
Erin W. (Murphy and Chapman’s mom)
“Lexi is awesome!! My dogs had an absolutely amazing night at her house and came home totally exhausted. Thank you so much again for watching them, they had an incredible time! They are both totally knocked out. They had so much fun with Margot and can’t wait to see her again! Alexis sent me lots of pictures and videos during their stay. Would definitely recommend and will be using her again for sure!!”
Brad M. (Robbie’s dad)
“Alexis has been an extremely good caretaker of my dog Robbie, and I highly recommend her to any person needing a good person to take care of their dog. Her house is nice and clean. She sends photos every day to show that our dog is doing well. I trust her very much.”
Phyllis G. (Sebastian’s mom)
“Alexis was wonderful with Sebby. She sent pictures of him with the other dogs and fed him lunch. I definitely will use Alexis again, and I'd be happy to recommend Alexis to anyone. Sebby had a wonderful time with Alexis and the pups. He was nice and tired for the rest of the night!”
Rachel R. (Reggie and Zola’s mom)
“My two dogs go to bark and breakfast regularly for daycare and also overnights when we go on vacations. We have been doing this for about a year and it’s been going great for us. Alexis does an awesome job and takes excellent care of my dogs. I always know my dogs are safe and well taken care of when they are there and the dogs love being there. There are always lots of other dogs there to play with and run around in her nice backyard. Highly recommend for anyone who works outside the home and wants peace of mind knowing that their dogs are getting plenty of exercise and play during the day.”
Catherine D. (Bailey and Charlie’s mom)
“Alexis takes such good care of our 2 girls!!! It is obvious that she adores dogs. She treats our dogs as if they are her own and sends pics and videos to us when we are away! We are so glad we found her!!!”
Jeremy P. (Lola and Elway’s dad)
“Alexis is the second sitter we have tried. We had our dogs meet her two dogs just to make sure everyone got along. Her dogs were great with our two. She has a beautiful home with a ton of dog toys and treats. The large fenced in yard is also great for our dogs to run around. We will definitely look to use her again.”
Mikaela B. (Petey’s mom)
“Alexis is absolutely phenomenal! She really goes above and beyond for the pets in her care! She was kind and patient with my older dachshund, Petey, despite his anxiety. I am always very weary when it comes to care for my senior dachshund, but have no worries when he is at Bark and Breakfast. I feel 1000x better going on trips. Alexis provided many updates and photos throughout Petey’s stays which definitely made me feel at ease. He also is a very anxious dog in general, and Alexis went above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable. In all, Alexis is very attentive and her love and care for animals shines through!”
Mandie B. (Bella and Bently’s mom)
“Alexis is nothing shy of the dog whisper. She and her home are both so welcoming; along with her very own fur-babies. She is attentive, energetic, and very professional. She accommodated mine and my dogs needs to the fullest !”
Molly C. (Max’s mom)
“We booked last minute with Alexis and she made the experience absolutely wonderful! She went over and beyond for Max and sent tons of pictures/videos from our stay. Next time we are in the area, we will definitely be using her again. She treated Max as her own and made me feel so comfortable leaving him. She even gives you a cute picture of your pet from their stay to take home!”
Everett V. (Thelma’s dad)
“Thelma had a great time on her stay with Alexis. She enjoyed playing with her dog Margot and meeting her cats. It was apparent that Alexis makes it a priority to give her pets and guests attention and keeps them busy and happy which I really appreciate. She also sent regular texts and pictures which I also appreciated. I will definitely reach out to Alexis again when have a need to board Thelma.”
Courtney Y. (Blanche’s mom)
“I can’t say enough good things about Alexis!! I was hesitant to bring Blanche to a new place but I quickly found out she was in the best hands! I cannot recommend you enough!! We hope to see you and Margot again soon before my contract ends!!”
Joe N. (Toby’s dad)
“Alexis did such a great job boarding our ‘little’ Toby (110lb Bernese Mountain Dog). Socializing with the other dogs was such an added treat for him because he rarely gets to interact with other dogs. Alexis did a great job with updates, was quick to respond to texts, and was very accommodating. We’ve already booked Toby’s next stay with many more in the future to be sure!!!”
Cristale M. (Robbie’s mom)
“Thank you for taking such good care of Robbie. He wined the whole way home. Made me cry.”
Mark R. (Piper and Laci’s dad)
“Great job. Had a lot of dogs that weekend and my two had a blast! Easy to work with.”
Tom P. (Cookie’s dad)
“Alexis was so great and professional to help us manage our pup that means the world to us. Thank you Alexis!!”
Paul M. (Rhea’s dad)
“I have personally used Alexis to care for my pups. Very reliable, very reasonable rates and always kept the lines of communication open. You can just tell she loves (and caring for)animals.”
Shannon W. (Henry’s mom)
“Alexis’s Doggy Daycare is hands down the best! As a frequent traveler with my Sheepadoodle Henry, I’ve experienced various daycare options, but Alexis’s stands out. Henry was at her daycare for months, and he thrived there. Alexis goes the extra mile, providing a pool and a ball pit for the pups. She keeps me updated on how he’s doing throughout the day. She even sends picture and videos. Boarding with her was seamless too. Highly recommend her for top-notch care and fun-filled days for furry friends!”
Savannah N. (Brahms’ mom)
“Alexis is absolutely amazing! She is extremely patient with my high energy golden retriever and is open and honest. Her home is so dog friendly and the backyard is super safe and clean! I would highly recommend 10/10”
Ashley K. (Xena and Echo’s mom)
“Alexis is a great resource! She did a pre-appointment visit to ensure she was fully prepared and met my dogs prior to the first scheduled walk. Her updates were thorough, and she has a flexible schedule. We will be a repeat customer!”
Dominick D. (Calligen’s dad)
“An amazing place for your dog! You can tell she genuinely cares for your animal. Keeps you updated and sends pictures! Highly recommend!”
Terry B. (Lizzo’s dad)
“Last minute booking. Excellent communication, dog friendly home. Lots of pics and videos sent. Lizzi came home, ate, and crashed. Lizzo will definitely be back.”
Julie T. (Norman and Chloe’s mom)
“We have two dogs, a very large and sloppy basset hound, and a shitzu lasa mix that is a very picky eater and is very selective with who she likes.
They have stayed with Alexis more than once and they both absolutely love her.
Our basset hound requires a lot of attention and work because he has skin issues, and Alexis very patiently wipes his neck down constantly. He was also not feeling great the last time he stayed there, and she was very concerned and was conveying everything to us along with pictures. Him not feeling well had nothing to do with staying with her, it had to do with his chronic skin issues.
She also managed to get our other dog to eat, and to snuggle with her, which is unheard of.
Alexis is very caring and wonderful with our dogs and I have no hesitation to recommend her to anyone I talk to.
We love having her watch our babies.”
Dawn R. (Winston’s mom)
“Alexis Rick and I would like to thank you for taking such good care of Winston while we were on vacation. I know he enjoyed being there and it was good for him to interact with other dogs. We brought him home, we have to admit I believe he is a little lonely. Margot and he formed a bond I believe, and he is missing her. We will let you know when we will need a sitter again. <3”
Peanut P. (Bella’s Dad)
“Found her on such short notice, was super friendly and professional. Got pictures and video during my pups stay. Definitely would recommend and will definitely contact Alexis if I ever need a sitter.”
Heather B. (Jasmine’s mom)
“Alexis was very welcoming and she made sure our dog would be comfortable staying with her. She spent some time with us at a meet and greet which was really helpful.”
Jeanine L. (Hans’ mom)
“Alexis is simply the best and I am so relieved to have found her. My mini dachshund, Hans, becomes anxious whenever I leave to go on a trip, but since he has been going to bark and breakfast he is very calm and relaxed when he comes home. Hans has made many new friends, especially Margot! Alexis treats every dog as if they were her own. She also keeps me updated and sends lots of pictures and videos, which is so appreciated. I can enjoy my time away because I know Hans is safe and well cared for. Alexis is flexible and very easy to work with. I highly recommend!”
Ryan O. (Krypto’s dad)
“Alexis took very good care of my dog, Krypto, and was always accommodating to my hectic work schedule. Another big plus is that she always send great pictures of the dogs while they’re under her care!”
Mark P. (Josey’s dad)
“Last Summer my wife and I were looking for a good place to board our dog while attending an upcoming out of town wedding. Following a thorough online search, we found a posting for Bark and Breakfast. We scheduled a visit with Alexis so she could meet our dog, Josey, and for the opportunity to see the environment where our dog would be spending a few days while we were away. We were immediately impressed with the home and surroundings where Alexis lived, including a large fenced in yard in a nice Endwell neighborhood. We were very pleased with her instant outward affection toward our dog and her relaxed behavior. We were delighted to see that this dog boarding environment was more like home and devoid of the usual cages that you see at most kennels.
Alexis has become our choice for all of our pet boarding needs. She is kind, compassionate, caring, and knowledgeable. We have used the boarding services at Bark and Breakfast several times now and we are so pleased with Alexis and her care of our beloved pet. She even sends text messages while we are away, including photos of our dog. We highly recommend Alexis for a different boarding experience compared to traditional kennels.”
Lynn T. (Lily’s mom)
“Lily and I are so lucky we found Alexis! She is very knowledgeable, asking questions before you can think of them and offering helpful tips. She’s attentive and caring with all of her dogs and excellent at keeping you informed. She even sent me reminders about Lily's medication. After Lily’s first visit, we weren’t sure she would be able to return because she was frightened of the other dogs and had extreme separation anxiety —I’m writing about my big 2 1/2 year old German Shepherd! Three visits later, Lily is playing with her new furry friends and looking to Alexis as her second mom. I would highly recommend Alexis. She makes you feel at ease knowing your pupper is in such good hands.”
John S. (Luca’s dad)
“Great place to leave your dog when you’re leaving town and can’t take them with you. Alexis is a caring and thoughtful person who looks after your pet with love and care. She takes the time to send you pics and video of your pet throughout their stay. Multiple accommodations available. Definitely recommend.”
JoAnne K. (Mia’s mom)
“Mia has gone to Alexis several times. She makes it a like your home atmosphere. Mia is timid and Alexis had her on a walk and playing with her dog Margo and other dogs. Great environment. I highly recommend taking your dog here.”
Kara N. (Rigby’s mom)
“I recently had the pleasure of using Bark and Breakfast for my first time boarding, very nervous dog and I couldn't be more impressed and pleased with the service. The care provided was exceptional; Alexis demonstrated an incredible level of patience and kindness that truly made a difference for my dog. She shows a genuine love for her animals especially with my pet’s specific needs. The communication throughout the process was outstanding, keeping me updated and reassured. I highly recommend Bark and Breakfast.”
Beth M. (LaKota, Violet, and Lola’s mom)
“I am extremely selective about who takes care of my four-legged babies, and I am so happy to have found Alexis. My three Labs adore her, and I have peace of mind when I’m away knowing that they are in the best hands. Alexis is very caring and knowledgeable, and the pictures and updates she sends from each visit are amazing! I highly recommend Bark and Breakfast.”
Edyta D. (Rex’s mom)
“Alexis is amazing! My German Shepherd loves going to her and playing with all the dogs. She has a home style daycare which I love. She always send pictures, videos and updates you all the time. I highly recommend her services.”
Bob J. (Brandi’s dad)
