Doggy Day Care in Amarillo

About: I’ve spent the past 3 years working full-time as a professional dog trainer, helping dogs of all breeds and personalities build confidence and structure. I’m also a certified Master Canine Training and Behavior Specialist through Starmark Academy. I’m experienced with everything from energetic puppies to nervous or reactive dogs, always focusing on calm, positive experiences. Your dog will get patience, structure, and genuine care while they stay with me — whether we’re training, walking, or just relaxing together. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands dogs and treats them like family, I’d love to care for yours. Pet care is a core part of my daily life. I currently work full-time as a professional dog trainer with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Starting in November, I’ll be transitioning to work from home, so caring for dogs will continue to be my main focus throughout the day—just as it is now. When dogs stay with me, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and confident. I maintain a calm and structured environment with plenty of exercise, enrichment, and rest so they feel secure and relaxed. I have two well-socialized dogs who get along with most dogs and are also accustomed to the crate-and-rotate method when needed. This allows every dog to have their own space and ensures a safe, low-stress environment for everyone. Each dog receives care that fits their personality, whether that means extra attention, quiet time, or more activity to burn energy. I keep routines consistent with what they are used to at home, including feeding times, walks, and training cues. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with respect and provide the same level of patience, consistency, and love. My goal is always to make every dog feel happy, understood, and cared for while their family is away.

“Maria took such great care of Suki. She’s been a bit nervous since our move and can get anxious when she’s alone at my apartment, but she was very comfortable and did so well. She’s very kind and communicative. When I picked Suki up, she was calm and happy instead of her usual big reaction, which really showed how safe and comfortable she felt. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Samara treated my Stormi Blu like the princess she is. She was great at communicating and I loved all the pictures. I will never use anyone else.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets most of my life. I have taken care of many pets for friends and family. I know our pets are family. I currently work from home so any dogs that have separation anxiety or do not like to be left alone are welcome. I have adequate time to spend with my pets as well as yours. I have a fully fenced in yard, and a doggy door so your pet would be able to go outside as they need. I am able to crate your dog. I do currently have 1 dog and 2 cats that a very friendly and great with other dogs. But I can do a crate and rotate system if that makes your dog more comfortable.

“Candace is a life saver! She accepted my last minute request for my brand new puppy, and instantly put me at ease. She took such great care of my pup, and kept me up to date! She left detailed notes about my pups stay. Will be using Candace again!”

“Carolyn was very nice and sent me pictures of my dog while enjoying her stay with her. I would feel very comfortable with her watching my precious dog in the future.”

“Kaidyn and her family are amazing! Kaidyn was excellent at providing updates along with photos and a video. Our pup and Bailey were great friends and had plenty of play time to wear him out. He got to take naps on their furniture and cuddle up with their blankets too. Our pup has been to several Rover stays throughout the US (as we are full time RV’ers) and Kaidyn is one we would definitely return to if ever in the area again!”

About: I’ve cared and watched over many different breeds of pets. I am a fond advocate of good animal care and strongly against abuse and neglect of any kind. I’m not biased to only dogs, but love animals of every kind. I’m currently working part time and also attend school, but I am not tied down to a 9-5 so I can generally work around things if need be. I have great time management and work well maintaining a schedule/routine. In my home: I will make sure they are well fed as instructed and get plenty of fresh air and socializing with me. In client’s home: I am great at following directions however the client would like or asks of.

About: I have loved taking care of animals my whole life, no cat or dog has ever disagreed with me. I love all kinds of animals and everything they bring. I am currently just focusing on animals and want them in my life every day always looking for something new. Making pets happy makes me happy I will always be watching over animals and making sure they are safe and everything around them is safe. I will protect and keep safe.

“As responsible pet owners, we are very selective about who takes care of our Havanese, Hannah. We have found Ashley to be a safe place of love and focused attention to Hannah's needs in our absence. When we pick Hannah up, she smiles like a joy filled child who just experienced the best play date available. We highly recommend Ashley!”

About: My 15 years as a dog owner has taught me they are family too. I will treat your dog, cat, or any other animal as if they were my family. I have always known to be good with dogs because of my kindness, patience, and neck massages. I will care for babies, the elderly, and large breeds. I have returned to college as a full-time student and drive for Lyft part-time. So, I have plenty of time to watch, visit, or board. My home is spacious, with a fenced-backed yard.

When they come to my house they will be extra taken care of using love and affection.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a young child. The families I have taken care of relied on me to take care of their loved ones and make sure they are given the correct and proper care that they need. My normal tasks are walking, feeding, giving baths when needed, and of course playtime. I am currently working full-time. I have days off during the week and also get a one-hour lunch break during my work weeks. My schedule is very flexible and can make certain accommodations. My apartment has a fenced-in yard where the dogs can roam around freely. I do not currently have any pets so your animals will have my undivided attention.

“Clarissa is great! Blue goes for daycare every Monday and Wednesday and loves playing with the other dogs and always comes home tired! Clarissa responds back quickly and is very accommodating! Will be continuing with doggy daycare!”
