Doggy Day Care in Avery

“Our pup loved his time with Elysa!! She kept us updated throughout the day and took excellent care of our baby. She really went about and beyond for him! Definitely gave us peace of mind being away from him.”

About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life and they bring me so much happiness and joy. I am a second grade teacher and my class sponsors a dog continuously at our local shelter. We also invite those dogs to come in 2 to 3 times per school year . All of the animals that i own are rescue animals. I try to promote spaying and neutering animals to my second graders and to others when the opportunity arises. My husband and I and our children Are and have always been responsible pet owners. We are asked frequently to take care of friends and family pets when they are out of town. I am very good with cats and dogs alike and enjoy spending much of my time with them.

About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my whole life :) Growing up I mostly had Shih Tzus, Chihuahuas, German Shepherds, Labradors, and other mixed breeds. I spent my summers in high school volunteering at an animal shelter that housed both dogs and cats. I also have experience with farm animals such as chickens and horses. I have even taken care of a pet squirrel, a pet snake, a tortoise, bearded dragons, bunnies, birds, and llamas. I am comfortable administering medication if needed and have injected fluids and given insulin and B12 shots to dogs and cats. I am also a professional animal trainer and have experience training puppies and adult dogs on general obedience, walking on a leash, etc., and I have worked with dogs who have a history of aggressive or destructive behaviors. My schedule changes from week to week. I work a remote job and make my own schedule, so it is easy to fit pet care into my daily routine and be flexible. I also travel frequently and love doing housesits or walks while I’m away from home. Please update your pet’s care info on the app or leave written instructions and have an emergency contact. Your pet's safety and happiness is my #1 priority!

“Sean has been a great sitter! Prompt communication and is easy and flexible with my working hours. For a new puppy mom and first time user to the Rover app, it was super easy and trusted Sean to take care of my little guy, he even got some training and socializing with other people and dogs in! Will continue to use Rover + Sean when needed!”

About: Friends refer to my home as the petting zoo! A pet friendly location a safe distance from any major roads. The closest neighbor is National Forest, as such, my own animal friends are usually freely scattered throughout the property. I have always respectfully penned the goats upon request while I host guests. As clearly stated by our references, I am an experienced animal keeper. We are that family who will set in the floor to converse with pets while visiting. Together our family has raised an exhausting list of species, worms, bees, beetles, dogs, cats, snakes, tarantulas, bunnies, ducks, turkeys, chickens, peacocks, goats, fish, huge Oscar fish, squirrels, rats, snais, guineapigs, cattle, frogs, tortoises, name one, we have possibly managed one! My 3 children range from age 14 up. There are no little ones or any untrained kids here to hurt or annoy your dogs, but she will surely love and spoil them! We have recently had an old kitty to pass, as you can see in photos this kitty has always stayed by her side while she practiced piano, shared a chair with her when she did school, waited at the bathroom door for her, sat at her feet while she was in time out and beside the tub while she bathed. My oldest daughter manages animal welfare in a prominent pet store. While working she is trusted with transporting their animals to the vet. Anything I haven't yet learned; she is only a phone call away! I have always had dogs, either working, playing, or just cuddlers, I have raised, trained, or sat many breeds! This is an animal home; you can feel the atmosphere as soon as you pull up. I reside on a mountain, All dogs will be leashed while taking potty breaks and outdoor play time. This is a mini farm. I gladly offer overnight, and consecutive day stays. If you're not interested in having me spoil your babies, I may not a favorable choice. The back yard is fenced to ensure your dog can be separated from the rest of the animals if one is concerned with such. They can enjoy the company of the others without full contact. Indoor only is also a respected option. All dogs will be leashed while taking potty breaks. I work at home, therefore I have plenty of time for scratches, snuggles and play! I do require a meet and greet before agreeing. o sit. *Day Care hours are 6:30 am-7:30 pm. Each pet will be allotted up to 8 hours. Pick ups and drop off times must be scheduled. *While house sitting, for my safety, and liability purposes, I will not set while others are staying or visiting the home. I am thoroughly background checked through Rover. Please list all animals in the home in your profile. *Drop ins- Please list all animals in your home in your profile. Example, I can not in good conscience agree to feed, walk, or give an outside break to one pup while the other pets remain unfed or without a potty break. - Please make sure keys or codes work properly before leaving, as Rover will still bill the pet owner for my services in such cases. *Boarding- Check list •Food •Leash •Collar/Harness •Meds •Pets will be crated at bed time.

About: Growing up I have always had pets and still do! I have always had a love for animals! I can't wait to love on your fur babies! I am a stay at home momma of two little boys. I pretty much have open availability when it comes to caring for your fur babies! I have two little boys, age 8 and 6, who love pets! I also have two dogs, Shadow and Raven, who LOVE to play with other dogs! We do have a fenced in back yard as well for the dogs to be able to run around and play!

About: My first pet was a black lab when I was 5 years old. Ever since then, I’ve owned a few kinds of animals. My first sitting/boarding experience was when I was 18. I took care of two Rottweilers and one chocolate lab for a year until my friend got her own place. I have two black labs here at home. A male named Jefe (Boss) and a female named Lovey. They're sweethearts and have been great with every dog they’ve come across. Your dogs will be well taken care of. Puppies, elderly, and every doggo in between! Typically, I’m only available afternoons, evenings, and weekends, but my schedule is open right now. I’m home every day of the week doing homework and attending my online classes :) Your pet will be staying in my home (minimal furniture and very few things to knock over) or in my fenced-in backyard. My neighborhood has sidewalks that I like to stroll on, and we have two parks nearby. The only other person living with me is my girlfriend, and I have two black labs with their own indoor living space. My dogs can be kept in their room and outdoors if your visit requires it. :)

“Christy was very sweet. She was prompt for our meeting at the designated drop off and pickup. I was very pleased with my first experience using Rover.com.”
