Dog Boarding & Residential Training
The Wizard of Dogs by Aishani Mathur
I board and train dogs in my own home, not a kennel, giving them a family setting and slow, positive training for anxiety or behavior issues.

About Dog Boarding & Residential Training
Home, Not a Kennel
When your dog stays with me, they're not just a guest - they're part of the family. My home in Gurgaon is shared with my husband and our own three dogs. No cages, no kennels. Dogs nap on sofas, cuddle on beds (only if you’re cool with it!), and roll around on the lawn. If your pup loves a real home dog boarding experience, they'll fit right in.
Which Stay Fits Your Dog?
I offer:
- Home Boarding: For pups who need a comfy holiday while you travel. They join my pack, follow a chill daily routine, and get lots of walks, play, and naps. They learn to socialise with resident dogs in a safe, managed way.
- Board & Train: For dogs who need help with anxiety, fear, or reactivity. We go slow at first – decompression walks, letting them sniff and settle. No rushing, no pressure. Kya jaldi hai? (What’s the hurry?)
My Approach
Training is all force-free and positive. I use mat training to give dogs their own safe space, always reward with a simple shabash (well done), and never push them to do more than they’re ready for. I stay alert for medical issues because sometimes, behavior is pain talking.
Real Stories
Dogs like Loochi (food aggression) and Bambi (extreme fear) have come a long way here, thanks to patience, trust, and lots of treats. I believe there are no ‘bad’ dogs – just dogs telling us what they need.

My Story
Hey, I'm Aishani. Gurgaon is home, with my husband and our three dogs (sometimes four, if Noddy feels up for it). Dogs are my world, literally quit my corporate job for them. Ezra’s touchy side taught me a lot about giving space and consent—sometimes he forgets, but we figure it out, no drama. Raw meat? Not my favourite, veggie life, but I manage. Every walk, every day, keeps me learning. Yoga and nature keep me sane.
