Doggy Day Care Arlington Hills

“This family is amazing at what they do. They are quick to respond to your booking request and they have accommodated me on several occasions when my schedule has changed. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter while I’m in Florida for the holidays. They send soooo many pictures and videos. It’s wonderful!”

I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always feel at ease while you’re away 💗 I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m home most of the day and able to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and supervision. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, and any special routines your pet needs. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for. My home is non smoking and pet free, creating a calm space. I’m very attentive and patient, and I’ll always keep you updated so you feel at ease 💗

About: I have had the joy of having dogs and cats as my companions my entire life! Including 2 painted turtles and fish. I've always had a love for animals and nature. I absolutely enjoy meeting new pet friends of all kinds. I have been pet sitting here in Jacksonville for 3 years now and have had the pleasure of caring for parrots, fish, cats, and dogs. A client of mine has a cat that needs medication as well as my own dog with allergies. I've done pet sitting for my own veterinarian's small farm with ducks, chickens, mini ponies, and mini donkey's as well. I now basic training as my own dog attended puppy classes at the K9 Obedience Club of Jacksonville. In my younger years, I worked in a veterinarian clinic for 2 years. I took a different path and started a career in the medical field in a sleep lab and am now getting back to what I truly love. Pet care! Either way, I have a nurturing nature and will treat your pets just like my own! I am a stay-at-home mom currently. I pick my daughter up from school weekly and am unavailable from 1pm-2:30pm due to the commute. Otherwise, I'm available to care for or play with your pet any other time during the week. I am available anytime on the weekends. I have a large fenced in yard with two friendly dogs for your pets to play with. I crate my own dogs and can do the same for yours if need be. I give my own dog medication for her allergies and can do the same for your own. I never leave outdoor play unattended as I do have a pool. If feeding time is needed, I separate all so as to not cause issues. I give lots of love and attention!

“Emma was great. Consistent communication and very accommodating. I was running a bit behind with pick up and she’s was quick to reassure me. I can tell Ellie had a blast with her and their dog Patrick. Highly recommend her care.”

“Wonderful person!”

“Excellent!!! Fozzie's behavior when I picked him up spoke for the great time he had. Fozzie said hi to me in usual happy fashion, yet did not want to leave. Normally, Fozzie is ready to leave wherever he is and doesn't speak to me. He actually ignores me until we get into the car. Her big brown lab was a sweet heart and her cats let Fozzie sniff them, too. Adriana, welcomed me all the way inside her home. The living room was set up for a place for pets to lay & relax; there were multiple cushions on the floor. Her back yard is fenced with ample room for running & playing, with a good size pool for pup swimming. When I came in to pick him up, she didn't rush me out. I bonded with the big guy with lots of rubbing & scratching; Fozzie wasn't his usual jealous self, getting between me and the pet I was petting. This was a very unique experience; it was great. Anytime we are in Jacksonville, FL, I know where Fozzie is going.”

“Yekaterina and her family are amazing! They watched my 8 week old puppy whitney for several days and treated her like family. She sent videos and cute pictures throughout the day and the kids played with my pup and were so good to her. My puppy loved it at their house! 🩷💕”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I got my very first puppy at six years old. From that moment on, I wasn’t just “around” dogs, I grew up learning how to understand them, love them, and communicate with them. What truly makes me different from other sitters is that I care for dogs emotionally just as much as I do physically. Your dog won’t just be fed, walked, or watched, they will be loved, seen, and heard. To me, dogs aren’t “just animals.” They are family members with feelings, personalities, and needs. I make it my priority to make every dog feel safe, appreciated, and understood, giving them the attention, affection, and companionship they deserve. My goal is for your pup to not only be cared for, but to have an experience they’ll remember, one filled with joy, comfort, and connection. Over the years, I’ve trained all my own dogs and even worked with professional trainers so I could learn the right techniques and bring them home. I’ve gained hands-on experience with: • Potty training • Door manners & boundaries • Feeding routines & food discipline • Socializing with other dogs I’m fully committed to the well-being of every dog I look after, and I genuinely look forward to meeting new pups and adding more furry friends to my life. When your dog is with me, they’re treated like my own , with patience, structure, safety, and endless love. I’m currently home from college for the entire summer and pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I have plenty of free time and no other jobs or major commitments while I’m here. I spend most of my time at home with my family, so I’m available throughout the day to give your dog the attention, love, and care they need. Any small activities I have during the day usually last only 1–2 hours, and I’m very flexible and great with communication. I make sure to plan around my bookings so your pup’s routine always comes first. Your dog will have someone who is present, reliable, and fully available to care for them. When I care for a pet, I don’t see them as “just a dog.” I see them as a member of the family, just like I would treat a younger sibling. That mindset guides everything I do. In the morning, feeding them is my first priority, just as I’d make sure any family member eats. I also make sure they get outside for bathroom breaks right away, because their comfort always comes first. I genuinely enjoy being outside, no matter the weather, and I love taking dogs on walks. Fresh air and movement are a gift, so I make sure each pup gets regular walks, bathroom breaks, and plenty of time outdoors. When a dog signals that they need to go out, whether they walk to the door, ring a bell, or give me a look, I don’t make them wait. I respond right away. I keep each dog’s routine consistent, especially feeding times and potty schedules, because structure helps them feel safe. When we’re out walking, I sometimes take different routes so they can experience new sights and smells. I never walk dogs off-leash outside of fenced areas for safety reasons, both for the dog and others around us. At home, I like to include dogs in what I’m doing throughout the day. I don’t believe in locking them away unless absolutely necessary. If I’m cleaning, folding clothes, or moving around the house, I let them follow me so they feel involved, loved, and part of my world. I also have a secure patio play space where dogs can run around freely while staying safe. My goal is always to make every dog feel cared for, seen, safe, and appreciated, like they are truly part of the family while they’re with me.

“Wonderful sitter! She soothed every anxiety I possibly could have had with my dog and went above and beyond with care. Thank you so much again??”

“Kaitland is so amazing. She’s responsive, so gentle, and her communications is always on point. We baby our 10-year old frenchie, and Kailand and her daughters are the most amazing and trusted pals we could have had asked for. 10/10 - would definitely book again”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds and sizes ever since I was a kid, my neighbors used to have me take care of their dogs while out of town and etc. I have raised 2 puppies up in the past 9 months. I have experience breeding dogs. I love to take long walks with dogs and take them in car rides with me! I’m currently working from home so I have plenty of time and space to play with your pups! I am available all day every day! I don’t have a fenced yard although I have plenty of time to walk with or without the leash with your pups. I have a french bulldog to keep your pup or pups company! I can crate your dog in needed or preferred. Plenty of dog toys around the house and plenty of dog beds! Dogs are allowed on both the couch and bed!

“Bella loves going to Megan’s and playing with the other dogs. I know she’s had fun because she is so tired that she doesn’t beg for her nightly walk.”
