Dog carers in Geneva and surrounds
Hi all, having just arrived with 2 border collies we now need to look into what we do with them whilst we are away on holidays etc. Does anyone have any ideas or experience of boarding kennels and/or dog sitters or equivalent. The 2 in question are coming up 3 and need exercised every day. Any ideas would be gratefully received as my previous posts on the forum in that last couple of days in regards to buying kennels was just fantastic. Cheers Jeff

Hi Catherine - no I didn't but if you look under Pets in the glocals Guides and find Animaux Passions Services then try them. I have just taken our 2 for the trial night and I was very impressed with the treatment they received - so much so that we are boarding them there for a week over Xmas. The rates I felt were very reasonable and much on a par with Australia . Hope this helps. Jeff

hi,


I would love to walk your dog. I have owned dogs my whole life. I know I can give your dog the love and attention it deserves! I love pets. I am more than willing to walk, feed.I am looking for a family that needs help with their pets whether it be for an hour or a week, I'm open to any job!  I also have always had cats! If you are looking for someone to help out please send me an email! I do overnights and weekends. I am available for regular visits/walks, and/or one-time (away for vacation, etc.)


I live in my house le Genevois français. I have all the conditions for keeping pets. I can keep an animal in my house, or do you want me to take care of pets.


I watched a neighbour of animals in the past, while their owners go on vacation.


I am flexible about dates, please contact me.

I'm looking at the Stillwagon site and can't find any information about rates or boarding. Can you share the usual boarding fees you are charged?

Hi Catherine


The rates I am paying at APS 74 are 39 Euros per day (for 2 dogs) (out of holiday periods) or 49 Euros (in holiday periods).


Although the kennel is a bit of a pain to get to, I consider it worth it as after the trial night the dogs were very happy as were the owners of the kennels. The prices are very much on a par on what we paid in Australia - in fact I think it is probably better as it is a more intimate size and the owners appear really caring and love what they do.


 


Hope this helps


Jeff

Dear Jeff,


 


Slightly off the topic - we are bringing our dog with us to Geneva from Australia. Just wondering how your dogs were with the long journey. We are going through a professional pet moving company but any tips or thoughts would be appreciated! Our dog is just over three years old and she is a Keeshond.

Karina,
I resurrected Jack's old thread several months ago, but it might be a good idea to start a new topic on your query so people can respond that might not be looking at this one.
Let me know when you start the topic, and I can share re moving my labrador over a few months ago. Kind regards,
Catherine

Hi Karina


Our 2 survived the trip really well. They arrived full of beans and were as pleased to see us as we them !!


We to used a professional pet transport company (Pet Carriers International) and we were extrememly happy with their organisation and communications. Their transport crates were 1st class as well.Due to logisitcs we had to board them with these guys for 2 weeks before they left so whether that had anything to do with how easy it was I am not sure. I also think that if all your paperwork is up to scratch and properly completed it also makes it so much easier at this end as well - we were advised when and where they were arriving and just went out to cargo area at airport and awaited the excited yelps !!


All in all our worries were all for nought - they are now very happy Genevoise !!


Hope this helps

There are listings of recommended dog walkers and kennels in the Handbook: The Know-it-All Guide to Geneva, Vaud and Neighbouring France.


You can buy one at Payot, English Bookshops, Gymboree, Moms-in-Vaud Events, etc.

Dear Jeff,


Thank you for your reply. We all arrived safely and after a lot of waiting around (there was some confusion and misplacement of our dog's papers) we finally got to see her and et her free from the freight cage! She was very tired after the big trip from Melbourne but she seems to be back to her usual self now.
