Doggy Day Care in Athens

“I highly recommend Shume! She took awesome care of Mallory during day care and has been great working with my work schedule since I work 12 hour shifts.”

“Today was my dogs 1st day and she had a great time! Ms. Donna made me feel comfortable leaving my baby with her. My anxiety was up being my 1st time away from my dog.. and apparently LILO’s anxiety was up too but Ms. Donna was patient with both of us.. I loved the energy there and know she LOVES her dogs and what she does! Thank you so much for taking care of my baby and all the helpful information you gave me as well!”

“It was our dogs’ first time to spend the day with Kira, and I do believe they had a great time! One fell asleep within minutes of leaving her house and the other could barely keep her eyes open on the ride home. Kira is so calm, sweet, and attentive with the dogs, and you can tell she truly has a heart for animals. I had no concerns leaving my pups with her. And her home is so clean and organized! How she does it, I don’t know! I am very much looking forward to my dogs spending more time with her in the near future.”

“I wish I could use Amber over and over again! I live in Indiana and came to Alabama for a quick visit. Amber was accommodating to the difficulty that comes with timing when traveling. She is so kind and warm. She made me feel so reassured about dropping off my two boys and it looks like three of them had a blast. If I lived nearby she would 100% be my go to for all my trips. LOVED her!!!!”

“We know Bailey is always in great hands with Colleen and her loving family! So caring and definitely prompt to respond! Thanks for being amazing!”

“Stephanie was great with our little dog. Very responsive to his needs. He had a great time playing at her house and loved her yard. She was very flexible with our schedule which was so helpful. I would definitely bring him back to her house if we are ever in the Huntsville area again.”

Mary K.

“Hope was great! She sent several updates during the day and made sure my dog was comfortable. She was also very flexible and was able to book us last minute. I’ll definitely be using her again!”

About: My husband and I both adore animals and have grown up with multiple dogs from a young age. They are a part of the family and we wouldn’t want it any other way. I have also been a pet sitter for friends throughout the years. We are happy to have our own sweet pup now and she would be thrilled to share her home with some new friends! Joey is a mini golden-doodle that has been socialized well with people and dogs of all sizes. We have a very spacious fenced in backyard that is perfect for running laps and fetching favorite toys, as well as a walkable neighborhood for a change of scenery. I am an online graduate student in speech language pathology, and will be at home with them for most of the day so they can roam the house and have multiple breaks outside. We understand the process of finding a trusted pet sitter, and all of the feelings that come a long when leaving them with someone new. We really want to provide a service that will give you peace of mind while you are away. This will include timely communication, daily photo updates, and open conversation about any special care needs for your dog. It is important to us that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved when they come to visit! We like to arrange a meet and greet prior to your dog’s stay to ensure that it’s a good fit for everyone.

“Auburn and her beautiful daughter took my baby, Mocha, on a last-minute request, and they were wonderful! Kind people, clean home, and I know they took care of my sweet pea🌸. Thank you, Rover, for having wonderful people like Auburn on your team! I will be back♥️ and thank you!!”

“Ben is one of the best dog sitters Lamby’s met! He was available last minute and even helped us with transport as we only had our RV and finding a pet friendly taxi in town was challenging. Lamb Chop almost wanted to stay with Ben he had such a good day, and he was perfectly tuckered out and content after a fun time.”

“Wendy took on my two small senior dogs last minute for day care! I’ve never left my dogs with anyone other than my parents, so I was nervous but once I met her and saw where they’d stay, I felt at ease. Her backyard is fully secured as well! . Also, her dog butter is the cutest thang ever 😍. She kept me updated and my dogs felt at home there. I will definitely use her again!”

Jaymie N.

“My Maggie enjoyed her stay very much! I’m so pleased she behaved. Also I truly appreciated getting updates as it helped with my separation anxiety. I believe she’s really looking forward to her next visit as when I was preparing for a dr appt she when and found her lease to be ready to go. I truly appreciated your time with her Nancy and Maggie”

About: I’ve always loved Animals! I’ve had a dog since I was 7. I’ve never met an animal that didn’t get along with me. I always felt like they gravitate towards me! I also currently have two dogs, who are my world! I am a stay at home mom, who also works retail part time! With my dogs we play and cuddle whenever I can! I also walk my doggies 3 times a day, depending on the weather! So my schedule is flexible to take care of your fur babies! I will walk your dog as much as I’m instructed or as needed! I do have a large kennel if they have to go in or one isn’t brought from home! As long as you tell me your dogs schedule (if they don’t have one , that is fine!) we should be fine!

“Great communication and my puppy had a blast!! Loved the photos and the checks in throughout the day. Will definitely book again for daycare needs!”

Gabrielle S.

“Anna & Alexander were AMAZING ! They were super reassuring and calmed our worries about our pups never staying at someone else’s house before. They made sure that our dogs were comfortable and had a great time. Definitely will be using again!”

About: Hello there! I have 2 dogs, several chickens, quail, and a bunch of bees — and they’re all my babies. 🐶🐔🐝 I work from home in the heart of Athens, so I have a pretty flexible schedule for drop-ins, walks, and snuggles. I’m a fast and effective communicator and LOVE sending pics and videos of your babies while you’re away so you always know they’re SAFE and HAPPY! 📸💛 My only weakness? Too many pet cuddles sometimes give me a little back ache — but I wouldn’t trade the love for anything! 🥰 Looking forward to loving on your fur babies like one of my own! I work fully remote and can break away to take care of your best friend relatively easily. If there are any delays in attending to your pet, I will always communicate effectively. Overcommunication is better than undercommunication in my experience. I have several personal references I am happy to provide who have used my services. Upon request, I have opened my home to overnight stays- I have a fenced in yard with double secure containment and two extremely friendly dogs who grew up with lots and lots of play dates

About: We have been caring for dogs, cats, donkeys, goats, and pigs for well over 10 years. We have recently moved to Athens and bring with us that experience to offer to you! We have helped birth and raised numerous dogs, numerous cats from birth, to include bottle feeding both dogs and cats. I have worked at horse ranch as well. My wife and I have grown up around and cared for animals all of our life. I currently work full time and I'm home by 5pm, but my wife is a stay at home mother, so someone will always be available for potty breaks, feeding, watering or play time! We are able to do drop in visits, boarding as well as dog sitting! We currently have 4 very friendly dogs that get along great with any animal we have had over or around, so plenty of friends for your pup to play with! We also have a large fenced in yard, and a shop with concrete flooring for shelter if needed.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life & currently have 2 dogs of my own. I love to take them out to play, walk, and make fun activities that will engage their senses. I stay home full time so I am able to give full attention to all the pets that stay with me! I work from home so I am able to be with the pets at all times. I take dogs with me for walks on lunch breaks and after work. They are always free to come in and out of the house as they please since we have a large fenced in yard. I have a large fenced in back yard where all animals love to roam and play. I walk the dogs around the neighborhood with sidewalks twice daily. There are bells on the back door so the animals can let me know when they need to go out. They are welcome to roam the house, sit on the furniture, or on my lap! Yep… even the large dogs who think they are small. All sized dogs and cats are welcome here!

“My Milly Willow had a wonderful time with with Amanda and her family. She was great with communication and keeping me updated. I know Milly played a lot because she slept all night which I’m so thankful! Such a sweet family that loves animals as much as I do and that’s just what we needed.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 years old to make extra summer money! I’ve always enjoyed caring for fur babies & caring for your furry best friend like they are my own. I work from home, and I am in school only 2 days a week half the day (until 12pm), so I have a lot of free time to make sure your baby is loved and played with. I have a fenced in yard, and a high energy GSP so I make sure I take her for long walks. I spend a lot of time with her outside playing fetch and throwing her beloved tennis ball! I don’t mind pets on the couch and furniture.
