Doggy Day Care Anchor Mill

About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.

“Angel did a wonderful job with our boy Gunther! She sent picture and video updates and always responded quickly when we contacted her. Gunther had the best time at her place. We could not have asked for a better person to look after our fur baby!”

About: I have fostered over 250 amazing dogs, mostly seniors and special needs, so I have experience with most any medical or behavioral care. I have had dogs ages newborn to 16+ in my care, so I have experience with all the life stages. I have experience training dogs of all sizes, from 5 pounds to 150 pounds. I believe that my calming presence around animals set me apart to earn their trust. I am home nearly 24/7 and spend most of that with my personal pets or farm animals, so being with your pet would just be added into my routine. I have a fenced in yard. While my small inside dogs are very friendly, I am comfortable with separating if needed using crates or gates. My inside dogs are 10 pounds and under. Pets have access to all areas of my home, with supervision.

About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher who teaches culinary arts. At home, I have a golden retriever, Saffron and a Labradoodle, Leo. I live on 2 1/2 acres, one of which is fenced in and perfect for furry friends to run and play! I am a teacher and gone from 7 am to 3:30 pm, but my parents live next door and watch my animals when I am away. Growing up, my brother had a service dog who was part Great Dane and part Black Lab. He became part of the family! I think that’s what started my love for animals. Since college, I’ve had at least one pet. While in Culinary school, I worked long hours. For Christmas, I got my cat, Basil. She was at the door with a “meow” at the end of long days in the kitchen. When I began my career as a culinary teacher, I bought my first house with a back yard and almost immediately added my girls, Sage and Sketch to the household! I work full time as a high school teacher. but live next door to my parents who watch over my pets. They love them as if they were their own! I have an acre, fenced in back yard. My dogs love the country, running and playing in the back yard! They are house dogs, but love the chance to run as much as possible.

“My baby ??went to Crystals home for the day yesterday. I have never left her with snyone other then family. I was so nervous and worried how she would be. She cries and shakes when I leave her …. I thought WHAT is she going to do all day? Will she be nervous and upset all day? …WELL….she never cried nor shaked….she was relaxed and had a great day!!! She shocked me …in a unbelievably HAPPY PROUD WAY!!! When I came to pick her up …yes she was excited to see me and then ran off. Now today for the 1st time I’m thinking gosh I wish Bailey?? could go over there again today…she had so much fun!!! Thank you Crystal?”

About: I have grown up around my own dogs along with the neighborhood pets. This is where most of my experience comes from. If anyone ever went out of town they would entrust our family to dog sit and I would always want to be the one to actually care for the pets by walking, feeding and bathing them. More recently I’ve watched over my friends, neighbors and coworkers pets. I love all dogs and I have never met a dog that doesnt warm up to me! Playing games with them to keep an active mind is also a fun thing I like to do. Activities can go from a high energy to just wanting a human to sit by them and give them good boy pets. My ultimate goal is to provide your loved pets a comfortable atmosphere! I work from home and have a flexible work day so I am able to step away at anytime to take a pup for a walk or just drop by to ensure they’re okay! I will care for your pet in the way you want me to in your home! Being away from your pup can sometimes cause them a bit of anxiety to sticking to the same routine tends to work out best.

“Amanda is wonderful, Bruno enjoys going to her house. Communication is easy and Amanda is so flexible with my unpredictable work schedule. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve raised dogs my entire life and cannot think of a better companion. I’m a former dog trainer, former volunteer at a veterinary clinic, and I’ve been pet sitting dogs, cats, livestock, chickens, reptiles, birds, and more for over 15 years. I worked and managed a PetSmart Pet Care department for 7 years. I currently work a M-F job remotely. I will watch all breeds, no exclusions. If you have a puppy, I’ll be happy to keep up with your training commands and routines. I believe that you should feel no stress about leaving your pet behind. I’ll even send you photos and videos! I’m available for boarding every day of the week. I work remotely from home Monday thru Friday. For drop-in appts, I’m only available Saturdays and Sundays. For boarding clients, I have a brand new, secure fenced in yard. Our neighborhood is quiet and perfect for walks. For drop-in clients, I can only visit Saturdays and Sundays due to my work schedule.

About: I've always been a dog person. I take care all of my family and friends dogs when they leave town. Familiar with dog training and nutrition. I work remotely and have freedom to walk, feed, and pay attention to your dogs as needed. I love dogs and enjoy helping them feel at ease. Pets can cuddle on ample dog beds and couches. I lost my dog a few years back and I just kept all her stuff set up. Your dogs will have free reign of backyard and house as long as they are well behaved.

About: I grew up with dogs and I’ve always had dogs in my adult life. I have approx 14 years experience fostering all ages and all breeds of dogs for the animal shelter and various dog rescues. I also provided basic obedience training during their stay with me. I have a lot of experience keeping dogs separated due to reactivity and I can manage rotations safely. Most of the dogs I’ve fostered were bully breeds. I have a lot of personal experience with Boxers and French Bulldogs. My dogs get fed twice a day and get to lounge around on the couch when I’m home! We spend time outside running around the large yard! I prefer to board crate trained, well behaved, dog-friendly dogs. If your dog is young and still working on training, please let me know as I should be able to assist with continued basic obedience practice while boarding. I have a lot of training experience!

“Adrienne did a great job watching our two puppies! She was easy to communicate with and worked with us when we had car trouble and couldn’t pick them up when scheduled. Highly recommend!”

“A huge thank you to J and T for making our pups feel welcome! It’s obvious that they really love animals. We dropped our dogs off for an afternoon of play and they had a blast! We received many pictures throughout the day of them playing and relaxing with other dogs. It’s great knowing our dogs are in good hands!”

“KJ was exhausted when he came home and looked like he had a fun day! Michelle is great at communication and you can tell she loves what she does!”

About: I have been pet sitting for over 15 years. I am a true dog lover with 3 dogs of my own. I am also a dog foster! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I am a stay at home mom with 3 dogs of my own. Your pup will never be alone for more than 4 hours at a time and most days no more than 30 minutes! I have a fenced yard, 3 pup play mates and endless love to give. Your pup will be part of the family while they are in my care.

About: My name is Isabella, a stay-at-home mom of three who has always been surrounded by animals. Growing up in Colombia, I began caring for pets at the age of 15, starting with my family, friends, and neighbors. My love for animals led me to work with nonprofit organizations for years. Now that I’m in the USA, I’m excited to bring my experience and passion for animals to you and your pets. I have a dog, a cat, and a ferret at home, so I understand how much pets mean to a family. I’m committed to providing each pet with the best care possible and treating them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting your furry family members! As a stay-at-home mom, pet care is naturally woven into my daily routine. My availability is completely open and flexible, always depending on your needs! Living on two acres of country land, I provide pets with a spacious and safe environment. I have crates (if needed) and a play pen to ensure their comfort and security. Pets receive regular meals, fresh water, and plenty of playtime in a nurturing and relaxed setting.

About: With over two decades of experience in canine care, I've cultivated a deep understanding of dog handling and care that empowers me to make a positive impact. Starting as a 10-year-old caring for neighbor's dogs with twice-daily walks, I've consistently demonstrated reliability and dedication. Growing up with Golden Retrievers and now sharing my life with a standard size Goldendoodle named Penny, has not only strengthened my love for animals but also taught my children the value of compassion. My family, including my husband, two children, and I, along with Penny, are committed to providing your dog with constant companionship, attentive care, and a nurturing environment. Having trained dogs in basic commands and upheld the highest standards of pet care, I'm confident in my ability to unlock the full potential of your dog and provide exceptional care. Hi my name is Katie. As a full-time homemaker, my schedule allows for seamless integration of pet care responsibilities. Given my consistent presence at home, managing a routine that includes our current pets - a goldendoodle and a turtle - along with caring for our two children, is quite manageable. Consequently, incorporating additional pets would not significantly impact our existing schedule. I have a spacious yard of nearly an acre, which is not fenced. However, I am happy to walk your dog on a leash if required. My own goldendoodle and two children will ensure your dog has a fun time, and we have a variety of toys available. Additionally, if your dog requires solitude, we can provide a quiet space. During summertime we will have doggy pool available for your pup to cool off in.

“Sarah has been so nice! She is responsive to messages and kind. Maya had a great first day of care today, and I’m so grateful!”
