Doggy Day Care Aukerman

“Just wonderful! Stephanie made us feel so comfortable leaving our new dog for the day! We are first time dog owners and our dog has separation anxiety so we were worried about leaving him with someone else for the first time. Stephanie is so kind and welcoming and VERY good with dogs! She sent us pictures and updates throughout the day so we knew our dog was having a good time and getting along with the other pups. We will be bringing him back soon!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them isn't just a job—it's my passion. I have experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, cats, fish, birds, rabbits, small animals, and even some farm animals. My parents bred AKC Golden Retrievers, which gave me hands-on experience raising and caring for puppies from a young age. I also have experience caring for senior pets who require extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I'm a proud mom to an amazing 11-year-old son who loves animals just as much as I do. We also have a 35-pound Mini Goldendoodle named Scooby-Doo, who brings so much joy to our family and inspired the name of my pet care business. I'm comfortable administering medications and following each pet's individual routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. During house sitting visits, I'm also happy to help with light household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail and packages, taking out the trash, and keeping an eye on your home. I believe every pet deserves exceptional care, love, and respect. Just as importantly, I believe great pet care is built on trust, communication, and reliability. My goal is to build lasting relationships with pet parents by providing dependable, compassionate care and treating every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I'm excited to share that I've officially made pet care my full-time career! I recently left my full-time job to focus on growing Scooby Doo Animal Care because caring for animals is truly my passion! 🥰 I'm a proud mom to an amazing 11-year-old son and a male Mini Goldendoodle named Scooby-Doo. I've been caring for animals since I was young and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, cats, small animals, and farm animals. My parents bred AKC Golden Retrievers, giving me hands-on puppy experience, and I'm also comfortable administering medications and caring for senior pets with special needs. Now that pet care is my full-time focus, I have much more open availability! If you're looking for dependable, compassionate, and experienced care for your pets, I'd love the opportunity to help. Thank you for supporting my small business! I provide the best care to the animals I care for from playing with them with their favorite toys, taking animals for walks or giving them attention and cuddles.

“I am very pleased with our experience! Kristi did a fantastic job on updating me throughout the day and my pup loves her! Highly recommend!!”

“First time using River and we picked Marie to watch our pup he's usually a bit anxious to be left somewhere strange but he did great. She was great at sending pictures and videos of his stay. He was worn out but appeared to have had a good stay.”

Kathy P.

“Tiffany was amazing!! My dog gets a little nervous when left at daycares but Tiffany made him feel right at home. The updates showed that he was relaxed and happy right away. Not only did Tiffany do a great job in taking care of him, she was also one of the most communicative daycares I've come across. You can really tell how experienced she is and how much she loves animals”

“Jessica was fantastic! She accepted our last-minute booking, responded quickly, and made sure our dogs were comfortable and happy with hers. Highly recommend!”

“Tom, Tolley and the whole family are awesome. They take great care of my dog, Max. He really enjoys his time with them and I enjoy all the pictures. Thanks, guys!”

“Amanda and her kids took such great care of Bear. I know he’s a handful because he’s still a puppy, and it was the first time he was around kids. I’m so grateful!”

“Our family loves sending our beagle to Swetha! We were in a pinch and needed to find day care for our pup with separation anxiety and a bit of a rascal side. We sent a list of dates and she replied immediately and said she could accommodate all of them. Pros: 1. Communication - She messages you throughout the day with pictures and videos, and sends a daily report. 2. Pet care - At the meet and greet, you discuss everything your pet needs including meal times, medicines, bathroom breaks, behaviors, etc. She works hard to ensure your pet receives the best care. Our dog is not left alone and gets plenty of attention which he loves. 3. Exercise - She takes our dog outside for bathroom breaks and walks. He also gets plenty of exercise playing with her dog and any other dogs in her care. Our pup comes home tuckered out! Cons: 1. Your dog may not want to leave! I would rate more than 5 stars if possible. She is very friendly, caring, communicative, and accommodating. If you want your dog to be in a safe and loving environment with attentive care, you should book with Swetha!”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for children and managing a busy household, which has given me strong skills in supervision, structure, and maintaining a calm, safe environment skills that translate directly to dog care. I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and behaviors, including high-energy dogs and those who need extra patience or consistency. In my home, dogs are never left unsupervised for long periods. I follow feeding schedules closely, maintain consistent routines, and pay close attention to behavior and body language to keep everyone safe and comfortable. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel secure, especially in a new environment, and I work to make the transition as smooth as possible. I have experience handling multiple responsibilities at once, which means your dog will be cared for in a structured, attentive environment not a chaotic or unpredictable one. Safety, supervision, and communication with owners are always my top priorities. I care for every dog like they're one of my own. My home isn't run on a strict schedule instead, dogs become part of our daily routine. We start our mornings by getting up and heading outside to play, and on weekends we spend lots of time outdoors enjoying the yard. During the week, I work from home, so the dogs hang out with me inside and get plenty of attention throughout the day. They have opportunities to go outside whenever they need to, and I make a point to get everyone out at least once every hour. My goal is to provide a relaxed, loving environment where dogs feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. My home is set up to be safe, structured, and comfortable for dogs of different temperaments. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and two friendly dogs who are used to being around others. I closely supervise all interactions and can separate or crate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays safe. I follow each dog’s routine carefully and pay attention to behavior and body language to prevent issues before they start. Owners can expect regular updates and a calm, well managed environment.

“Anita provided great care for our Lucy. Very chill environment with lots of attention and care. Highly recommend.”

“Catherine and Sean are very accommodating with sudden changes in my schedule. She sends regular updates and pictures about how my puppy is doing. She ensures my pup is mentally and physically stimulated. Weretlucky to use their services!”

“Monika watched my puppy all summer when I went to work. She was so great and patient with him, especially on days he was a handful. Dunkin loved spending his day with her and her family and was always excited upon arrival. I couldn’t recommend someone more to care for your pup!”

About: Happy dogs make me happy. I work for an animal health care company, where I help others care for their animals. So, I spend forty hours a week talking about animals, biological for animals, pain meds for animals, and treats for animals. Before I go to sleep each night, I pray for my customers and their animals. The first thing I do each morning is thank God for my dogs, then I kiss their noses. By the way, that's what I do when we go to bed each night. I raised two wonderful sons from the ages of three and four years old, by myself. They are caring men and have inherited my love for animals. They learned by example. Both are pet owners and compassionate human beings.

“Looks good, thanks for the walking and taking great care of my baby”

About: I have been around dogs and cats almost my whole life. I have dropped in to feed my grandmas dogs and my aunts dogs plenty of times. Right now I am looking to have this as my full time job because I love feeding and taking care of animals. When i am around them it makes me happy! I live in a apartment on the 7th floor so it would be kinda difficult to bring other animals here and I also have a cat that doesn't like other animals. I can take care of animals at my mothers house with no problems.
