Doggy Day Care in Alum Creek

About: I’ve owned dogs, cats, ferrets, rats, hamsters and I’ve help treat horses. I love all animals and always willing to learn more about each animal. I have mainly open availability, so I can give as many potty breaks and road trips to McDonald’s, I have a very friendly female dog who’s super happy to meet any animal and person and ready to play with anyone I have an open yard, and an option for a fenced in area. I can do anything a client needs me to do and achieve more. We spoil all animals in our home and others and give them all the love and affection.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—growing up on a farm and later living in apartments. We’ve always had multiple dogs at once, and I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds, including Yorkies, Beagles, Pit Bulls, Shepherds, Hounds, English Bulldogs, Great Danes, and more. No matter the size or breed, I have hands-on experience with them all! My brother breeds mini Labradoodles and raises them kennel-free, so all the puppies and mamas live inside the home. I’ve helped care for his dogs often—everything from newborn puppy care to managing females in heat, intact males, and keeping dogs safely separated when needed. Currently, I have a 5-month-old daughter and an XL Bully named Tadder. He’s not fixed, but he’s incredibly sweet and gentle, especially around my baby. Tadder gets along great with female dogs and smaller males. He’s crate trained, and we also have two separate areas in the house to keep him safely apart if you have a female in heat or a larger male dog. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my daily life naturally revolves around being a caregiver. Our big dog has a routine that includes a morning, midday, and evening walk. His favorite spot is the laundry room, where he has his own couch and crate—that’s usually where he sleeps and relaxes. During the day, it’s just me, the dog, and the baby at home until around 5 or 6 PM. I’m definitely the snuggler in the house, while my fiancé takes over playtime when he gets home! When a pet is in my home, I do my best to make their stay feel as close to their home routine as possible. I think of it like caring for someone’s child—I want to respect and follow your rules to meet your pet’s specific needs. While I may not be able to fully replicate a fenced yard if you have one at home, we do have a runner for safe outdoor time and go on plenty of walks to keep them active and happy. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll follow any instructions you leave and will keep you updated regularly. Even if I’m just stopping by for a visit or a walk, I like to spend a little extra time with your pet to help ease any anxiety they might feel with someone new around.

“Brenda was willing to care for Sparky on short notice, for which we were extremely grateful. Her home is very pet friendly and it’s obvious how much she loves animals. Sparky had a wonderful time! We will definitely have Brenda care for Sparky the next time we are in the area.”

“Watson had a great time. This was his first time away from us. He was so tired from playing he had to be carried into the house. Candace gave great updates and we are so grateful that we found her and know we have a special place to take our pup when needed.”

“I will definitely be calling Patricia again! As a first time Rover user, she was really great. She ended up being within walking distance from our home. Love the pictures she sent to let me know how our Queenie was doing. She took her on walks and was very understanding of Queenie's preferences.”

About: As an animal lover, I have always enjoyed spending time with dogs & cats. My experience with animal sitting/walking goes back to when I was only 10 years old. Growing up with pets, I instantly connected with every animal I had. At such a young age, it was clear to me that I would be caring for animals for the rest of my life. Over the years I have cared for several animals, including volunteering at local animal shelters. I have been personally house sitting and walking animals for the last five years, and it has been nothing short of a great experience. I have a love and passion for this job, and I make sure to take care of any animal like it is my own!

“Olivia was very sweet and accommodating! I had to make a lot of time changes because my day wasn’t going as planned. She was happy to take care of my dog longer than anticipated. Will definitely recommend!”

About: I have a cat, and used to take care of 2 Yorkies and a larger breed. I have a side yard so they won't have to walk around the neighborhood. I work remote, so if I'm taking care of a pet that is my new focus. Making sure they are comfortable, otherwise occupied, or giving them active engagement. My home has a fenced in yard for dog walking, and a first floor with a kitchen as their main area to relax. The home can be set up to align with a specific pets needs.

“Jill provided 2 days of daycare for our terrier, Johnny. She took special care as he is recovering from leg surgery! He loved walking in the nearby park. We would recommend Jill or re-book her next time we need a sitter.”
