Doggy Day Care in Beach Ridge

“Jenn & Brian have become our go-to sitters, they are consistently wonderful! Life savers! The only time Luna pulls on her leash is when she realizes we pulled up to Jenn & Brian's place 😊 She is always so happy to be there!”

About: . As cliché as it sounds , dogs are my life! I am passionate about the way they communicate. I highly enjoyed back when I volunteered at a foster rescue agency in Charlotte, NC. This opportunity polished my skill of handling myself in high pressure and high energy situations when it comes to dogs and cats. Working for Rover, growing up with dogs, and volunteering was another rewarding pet experience I had which gives you basic but hands on independent experience with clients and there furry loved ones. Rover is actually my main job. It’s enough to support yourself as well as I love the schedule flexibility. I am home most of the time and if I do leave it’s usually just to the grocery store or maybe to dinner. I love being home and watching TV or doing some type of new art. I’m studying to attend Animal Behavior College so I can train PTSD Service dogs and maybe even help socialize shelter pups. As I said I am home most of the time minus the normal grocery store run or what have you. They will get frequent potty breaks as well as a nighttime long walk to wind down so shall they stay overnight. If they have any problem areas,I like to dedicate a small slot of time to enrichment aka knowing as training time. Great way to help me practice as well as help any areas a part might need to work on… Not that they’re not perfect as is 😇. I’m a single mom who has my son by myself full-time however, please don’t think that will interrupt the level of care or undivided attention that your pup will have! My son loves animals he absolutely gets so excited whenever I have a client! Due to being a single mother, I am home full-time, and Rover as I said as my main job. Although I don’t even look at it as a job I seriously love what I do. Whenever I do have a client, I like to adapt to whatever your pups schedule is! I don’t mind getting up as early as 6 AM if that’s what they’re used to. I found that it’s better to keep them on the schedule that they have at home as it helps them acclimate to being away from home. I love my clients and I’m very signature with each one. I like to tailor my service based on the clients needs. For instance, if they are an anxious client with separation anxiety, I will sleep in the living room with them so they do not feel alone. I even like to do little blanket forts with my son and the client and that gives them a little den to feel safe in. If they don’t mind being in the bedroom they are more than welcome in there. I give each client free roam of my home. Whether you choose your home or mine, I will focus solely on making sure your fur baby is not only cared for, but stays entertained as well as meet all of their needs accurately and on time. What’s more is that my home is a calm, peaceful, spacious 4 bedroom with a good size backyard. In the backyard, I have a stake leash tie out so your pup can be secured since it’s not fully fenced in but they also will have about a 20 foot diameter to roam around and feel free. I never leave any client unattended out there however just for safety precautions. In my home, I have plenty of guest items in case you forget anything such as toys, food/water bowls, beds, even doggie sweaters in three different sizes for the colder months and doggy boots in two sizes in case it’s muddy/rainy! I offer meet and greets before the sitting so you and your fur baby can get comfortable and acclimated with myself and my home and I can then address any concerns and answer any questions you may have. During the meet and greet I will also ask YOU a few short yet detailed questions to make sure I take the utmost care of your fur baby while you’re away be it in your home or mine! Some of the questions include specific feeding times, vet & ICE information, favorite, toys, and games, and discuss any behavior issues or anxieties and how I can best comfort them! All pups get to go home with a thank you card and a new toy whether it’s a rope, ball, or squeaker depending on what their favorite is! As you’ll see, it’s an option to take care of your pup in your home if you’re more comfortable with that. When you book housesitting, this includes of course, first and foremost, taking care of your fur baby just the way I would at my house but also includes watering any plants, bringing in any packages or mail, and though it’s not specified through Rover, I like to go above and beyond, so I don’t mind doing any laundry or lighthouse cleaning. I assure you when you arrive home your home will be in the same if not better condition then you left it!

“Carol is truly a dog lover! It is great that she took our last minute booking as we came in to town to sightsee. Our girl was very well taken care of giving us some free time!”

“Erica was absolutely wonderful. She made sure Millie had plenty of activities to do like walks, play mats, and treats. Pick up went seamlessly and she is very responsive and flexible. I appreciate her taking care of my dog!”

“Beverly was great at communication and coordinating drop off/pick up, and helping to ensure that our dog adapt quickly to her place. We appreciate it! Thank you.”

“Laura was great! Very responsive and flexible and I got picture updates throughout the day. My dog had a blast!”

“Erica watched Dubbs, Cocker Spaniel for 5 days while we took a little trip. We must say she was fantastic as far as having us over for a meet and greet right away and best of all were daily updates and pictures. We know Dubbs had a great time and will be sure to get in touch when we take our next trip whether just an overnight or many days. Thank you Erica.”

“Our dog’s separation anxiety had us worried about any dog-sitter’s ability to properly watch over him, but Alex really came to our rescue. He did a great job of keeping in contact and gave us confidence that our dog was going to be in safe hands while we were away. I definitely recommend his services and will be reaching out to Alex again in the future!!”

“Our dog had a great visit. The caregiver was friendly and loved our dog from the moment we arrived. The house had a fenced area where the dogs played. Very happy with the care that was given.”

“Mary and Adam were great! Very flexible and easy to communicate with ahead of arrival and Cooper has a wonderful time playing. We would recommend them to anyone and we appreciate the care!!!!”

“Our pup Avocado had a blast with Beth’s three dogs, each of whom was an excellent host. Beth was responsive and caring, and exceptionally kind and understanding when Avocado had tummy issues due to the fact that he (unbeknownst to us at the time) ate some food that disagreed with him before we dropped him off.”

“Mary was amazing. We have a dog with dementia. She was so good with him. We didn't worry for a minute as we went off to explore beautiful Niagra Falls. She was really flexible with time and was gracious enough to pick up and deliver our dogs. I highly recommend her.”

“Sydney has petsat for my dog Patches on multiple occassions. She is great and made sure my dog got her pills, was fed, and walked at the appropriate times. She does her job well!”

“Dasha is a pet lover. And is admirable in the way she cares for all animals. Responsible and caring for all those and everything around her.”

“We are so happy to have found Sarah with her beautiful dog and cat as George's doggie sitter! Our dog George had a great time playing with Sarah's dog and both dogs even went on a walk together! George is only 7 months old and is still a puppy, but Sarah made him comfortable and keep him busy. I highly recommend Sarah, she clearly loves animals and wants the best for them. We have already booked a weekend stay at her home.💜🐾”

“My sister has watched over my two cats and my Dog several times. She is very affectionate towards Dogs and Cats. She has also done this for her neighbors countless times. Dogs and cats tend to live my sister as they recognize how affectionate she is and that they will be safe with her. Roslyn is also ver generous with hugs, kisses, and petting of the animals. She takes this responsibility seriously and is extremely reliable. She is also attentive to any special needs the pets have.”

“David and Cathy were brilliant when it came to watching Ruby for two days. They really helped in putting my mind at ease and seeing they had a loving home and a companion for my pup to play with only furthered this notion. They were flexible and worked around my schedule allowing me to make last minute changes and I certainly intend to utilize their services again in the future.”
