Doggy Day Care Bear Poplar

About: Hi, I’m Mary! I’ve been providing pet care through Rover since late 2017 and have nearly 9 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. Over the years, I’ve worked with pets of all ages, personalities, and routines, and I take pride in being reliable, communicative, and easy to work with. I understand that every pet is different. Some want to play fetch for an hour, some prefer a leisurely walk, and some cats would rather supervise me from across the room. My goal is always the same: to make your pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors and pets that require medication. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick potty break, taking your dog for a walk, or spending the day with your pup in daycare, I provide dependable care and plenty of attention. Communication is a big priority for me. You’ll receive detailed Rover cards, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work hard to earn both your trust and theirs. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, daycare services, and cat drop-in visits throughout the week. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I pride myself on being reliable, responsive, and punctual. Whether you need ongoing care or help while you’re traveling, I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule and keep your pets happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your instructions carefully, pay close attention to each pet’s routine, and provide regular updates throughout my visits. Building trust with both pets and owners is extremely important to me, and I strive to provide the same level of care I would want for my own animals.

“Ellie the terrier always loves visiting with her Miss Carrie.”

“Kathy is so sweet & very attentive with my dog. She's also great at communication, which I've found to be a rare occurrence on Rover. She cares for other dogs while keeping mine, but I would never know if she hadn't told me! She sends pics throughout the day & promptly updates time cards. She's so compassionate & truly cares for my fur baby's wellbeing. I highly recommend Kathy!”

Mindy H.

“My Winston absolutely loves it at Kim’s house! He just struts right in like he owns the place. Her pups couldn’t be any sweeter & we feel so lucky we found her . Thanks Rover for making this so easy.”

Kathleen L.

“If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Rachel was fantastic with me needing to book Cricket within days while being a new client and even being able to do a meet and greet the day I booked! Her flexibility was great. I gave her the run about cricket and her being dog reactive and Rachel ensured me that she would make sure Cricket would not interact with other dogs. When I picked her up Rachel was ready with her and gave me an entire summary of how cricket did and how she adjusted to a new environment. She even gave us a referral to a trainer to help with her reactivity! It was a success and we will be returning!”

Hannah D.

“Papito loves spending time with Lawrence and Gabby. They have calm, positive energy and he always comes back happy. He's pretty headstrong and very high energy and it always feels like Lawrence and Gabby truly enjoy and appreciate him, which makes it easy not to worry about leaving him for a night or weekend. Plus they always send great artistic-quality pics of his time with them. We feel lucky to have found them.”

Jill B.

“Nancy was absolutely wonderful! She graciously accepted my VERY last minute booking request, was easy to communicate/coordinate with, and a breeze for drop off and pick up. She was just what Mandy needed as we train her separation anxiety. I loved the pictures she sent of their time together. Was very nice to know my pup was in safe, loving hands! And her backyard looks like a dog’s paradise which was perfect for Mandy’s addiction to ball throwing!!”

Samantha P.

“Jasmine took wonderful care of our dog during several daytime visits. She is highly knowledgeable about dogs, especially those with separation anxiety, and she knows exactly how to handle sensitive situations with calm confidence. Her communication is clear, consistent, and straightforward. She was also extremely accommodating, making sure we felt comfortable and reassured every step of the way. It was clear that our dog was in capable, caring hands. I highly recommend her for both pet sitting and training.”

Gilles G.

“Amazing taking care of Pumpkin! We needed last minute care as we were heading to Carigan farms to swim but they don’t take dogs. Definitely recommend!”

About: Experienced with energetic and strong willed dogs. Experienced with structured care, consistent routines, and happy dogs :) Will love your pup like they’re my own Caring for pets is already a big part of my everyday life. My routine revolves around making sure my dog is walked, fed, and given plenty of attention throughout the day. Feel free to message me about availability! I typically am available whenever you need!! I have a very friendly and energetic Husky in my home who loves staying active. We go on walks around the neighborhood about every 2 hours for potty breaks, as well as mental and physical stimulation. We also occasionally enjoy car rides to the dog park for extra fun and exercise. Since my yard is unfenced, I have a secure outdoor lead available. If your dog enjoys spending time outside like mine, I’d be happy to accommodate that upon request. For safety and comfort, I also have a crate available and can crate your dog or mine as needed.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I currently own a large dog and am responsible for all aspects of his daily care, including feeding, walking, basic training, grooming, and monitoring his health and behavior. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs as well as calmer or more sensitive ones. I have experience managing leash pulling, reinforcing basic commands, and creating a calm, safe environment both indoors and outdoors. I always prioritize safety, routine, and positive reinforcement. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, body language, and comfort level, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, patient, and proactive when it comes to communication and care. I'm currently working from home. So I have plenty of time to play with your dog. I'm available for boarding and day care on weekends and weekday. I have yard and a friendly Bernese Mountain Dog to keep your fur baby company. I will keep the floor clean so that the dogs have enough space to play.

“Took great care of my dog like he was one of hers! Sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend!”

Cole M.

“Lynann and her husband are great to work with. I appreciate her explaining thoroughly her process of what the daycare looks like at her home how it all works and like the required things that our dogs needed like crate training and being OK with cats. I especially liked that we got to do the meet and greet so our dogs got to meet her dog and that they got along really great. I just felt like it was very organized and when we did do our trial day she sent so many updates that were so detailed and it just made me feel really good about the entire situation. So we will definitely be booking with them again.”

About: I have a love for pets, whether it be my own or others. I will gladly treat your beloved family member with love, care and compassion. I have experience with various breeds and temperaments. Whether I am in your home pet sitting or out for the casual walk around the block, I will be attentive to needs and wants. I will get down on their level play with them or just join them on the couch while they nap in my lap. My enjoyment comes from petting, loving and making my contribution to happy, healthy pets. A satisfied customer is one who can trust the care I provide, and know that I will always provide 110 percent. I look forward to the opportunity to serve the pets in my community.

About: I have been a dog mom for over 12 years. I absolutely love dogs and will care for yours just as I do my own and provide your dog a happy home away from home. Our home is pet friendly- we have a doggie door and a fenced in yard. We allow dogs on our furniture. We can take walks around the neighborhood or walk to a private community dog park about a half mile away, if you like. Please reach out for a meet and greet or let us know if you need any additional information. I look forward to meeting and taking care of your dog! I am currently working from home full time, so would be able to take your dog outside frequently. If I already have a booking for that day, I will reach out to the owner to ensure there are no questions or concerns before booking another dog. I do have a 2 dog limit to ensure all dogs get along well. My home is dog friendly. Our back door leads to a fully fenced in yard. Please let me know if you’d like pictures or additional information.

“We had just arrived in the area and soon learned that we needed some help with our fur baby. My son and daughter-in-law suggested we try the “Rover” app and that’s where we found Karen. She invited us over for and meet and greet and Tucker immediately started checking out his surroundings. Leaving a pet with someone you’ve only met once is scary, but Karen’s sweet smile and kindness made us feel at ease. Tucker loved being at Karen’s and we’ve already booked our next daycare day! A+ in our mind!”

“Debora was absolutely amazing! She sent photos and little updates to let me know that Bourbon was doing great throughout the day. Bourbon had such a great time he passed out when he got home. I would 100% recommend Debora and her beautiful home to anyone looking for a little help with their fur baby.”

“Stacey was fantastic!! She sent lovely photographs of my dog having a blast playing outside! She was very organized with pick-ups and drop-offs and I would absolutely trust her with my dog any time.”
