Doggy Day Care in Bel Alton

About: Hi! I am Sarah. I am a mom, business owner, and dog lover living in 7 acres in La Plata. I offer in home boarding and care in a peaceful, low stress environment where your animals can relax, explore, and feel at home. I am currently working on installing a fence, so for now I can do leash walks to keep everyone safe, or supervised play for small puppies since we are acres from the road. If you’re looking for personalized care, space, and a more relaxed environment, I’d love to care for your dog. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and I prioritize safety at all times. Dogs get plenty of supervised outdoor time and a comfortable, clean space inside to decompress. I care for pets in home as if they’re part of the family. I can follow each dogs routines, which includes feeding schedule, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions that you provide.

About: Growing up, my mom has always had at least 6 cats in the house and 2 dogs since i was the age of 10. I learned from my mom and sister to help take care of our pets and how to take care of them. My friends and acquaintances know how loving my family is of animals so I was always the one they called if they needed pet care. I’ve fostered cats and dogs ( when I don’t want them for myself); I’ve gone to friends houses to care for their pets; I’ve kept pets at my home for friends; I’ve trained many kitties and puppies; I’ve seen the most of it. Let me know what you and your fur babies need so we can figure out a plan! As of now I’m currently available 24/7. I am looking to find a more stable job soon, which will be part time. I can always see if I can work my schedule around yours as well, so let me know! I have a fenced in yard which is great for dogs to run around freely and 2 friendly dogs who do great with other pets and people! I have 6 cats, 2 of which are indoor and 4 of which are indoor and outdoor cats. I do have a room where I can isolate any pets that don’t do well with other animals and if you wish for me to keep them in a crate at any time, I can make that happen! I’m experienced in walking dogs and cats; the harnesses, leashes and all! I can bathe any doggies that might get dirty from an outside adventure if I have your permission and of course if I’m in your home, I’ll be sure to clean up any messes. Potty training isn’t a problem for me and accidents happen! If you have any preferred products you’d like me to use for clean up, let me know! If you feel there’s anything I’ve missed just contact me for further details. (:

“We had a great experience with Roderick and his family. Since our dog is still pretty new to us, we were a little unsure how he’d do, but he warmed up to them so quickly. It was clear he was comfortable and well cared for the whole time. Roderick and his family were kind, welcoming, and treated him like one of their own. We’d definitely book with them again and highly recommend them!”

About: My husband and I are blessed to have a totally fenced in home with over three acres. I decided to use this blessing to bless dogs to come and run and play. Dogs were meant to run and roam not be tied up. I so enjoy being outdoors and being around dogs. I have always had dogs even growing up with my family. My father had a heart for animals and I believe that is where my love has come from. I have three dogs of my own and each one has a very special spirit about them. In my spare time, I enjoy going to the rescues and shelters walking the dogs there. I also take rescue puppies into our home and foster them until they are adopted into a loving family. My husband and I work together and we have plenty of time to give special attention to your fur baby. We believe in exercising your pet whether by means of walking, playing with their favorite toy, sitting on the porch just hanging out and also then giving the proper rest as needed. My yard is fenced in for protected play time. While inside your pet will be allowed to be a part of household for special time and then I have a separate area where your pet will be allowed to have quite time and rest in a crate or in a area without a crate as needed.

“First daycare experience with Emmanuel and my puppy had a time. Nori was in the company of other dogs which she loves. Lots of space inside and out to run and play. She was returned to me good and tired. We are looking forward to our boarding stay.”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them. Caring for pets comes naturally to me, and I make sure every dog feels happy, safe, and loved while their family is away. I have the flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. I can easily fit in walks, playtime, or drop-in visits around my work schedule to make sure your dog gets lots of love and attention. have a fenced yard, so dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely. I always make sure they’re comfortable, supervised, and surrounded by a calm, loving environment.
