Doggy Day Care Birch Bay

“My dog Murphy has stayed with Anastasia a few times. My husband and I have hectic work schedules and we appreciate the attention Anastasia gives Murphy. Murphy goes on several walks and we get lots of picture on how he’s doing through out the day. Murphy comes home tired and happy after daycare! Thank Anastasia ❤️”

About: I’ve loved and lived with dogs and cats my entire life and can’t imagine a home without animals. As a longtime healthcare professional and nurse, caregiving comes naturally to me, and I’m attentive to the subtle changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and comfort that can tell us how an animal is doing. I’m comfortable with senior pets, special needs, and medications, but most of all, I simply love being with animals, whether walking a dog, cuddling on the couch, or patiently earning a cat’s trust. I know how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else’s care, and I will care for yours with the same warmth, attentiveness, and affection I give my own. I have a flexible work schedule, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care a natural part of my daily routine. I enjoy being outdoors and walking, as well as having quieter time at home, so I can easily accommodate walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and plenty of cuddles. My flexibility also allows me to be attentive to each pet’s usual routine rather than expecting them to adapt to mine. Creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment is very important to me, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours. As a healthcare professional, I naturally pay close attention to safety, routines, medications, changes in behavior, and the environment around me. I respect each pet’s unique personality and boundaries, allowing them time to feel comfortable and build trust at their own pace. I’m also very respectful of other people’s homes and will care for your space, and most importantly your beloved pets, with the same attentiveness and care I would want for my

“Leslie took great care of my Nikki. She has never been at daycare and loved it very much especially the homecooked meal that Leslie prepares for her dogs. What a great place . I will bring Nikki back to Leslie anytime and highly recommend her.”

“It was our first time leaving Darby with anyone other than family but our worries were unfounded. Minerva was amazing, Darby had so much fun and was so well taken care of in Minerva's home. We will certainly continue to have Minerva help us out!”

“Daisy had amazing time for her first day without family!! Shabnam has officially become her second family! We were unsure how she reacts in a new place and if she comes back with low energy or anxiety! She loved her time with Shabnam! She truly care about Daisy’s comfort and happiness! Her space is calming and full of joy and entertainment! Thank you Shabnam!! 🐾💕”

About: Ive worked in a variety of pet care settings over the last 12+ years. Ive worked at vet clinics, police training kennels, pet sitting companies, have been a pet grooming assistant, have done dog training, and run my own pet sitting business for a few years as well. I have worked with a wide variety of dogs (big, small, old, young), and cats with a variety of special needs, I have cared for horses, small animals (rats, bunnies, chickens), goats, and several species of reptiles, and a cockatiel once. I am thorough, communicative, and am able to give a quality pet care or pet adventure experience. My availability changes per day and week based on appointments. My schedule is semi-flexible depending on the needs of your fur-kiddos and the service(s) provided. I offer in-home pet sitting, pet care, as well as can take dogs into my own home. In my own home there is a dog and several cats, so your dog(s) would need to be cat and dog friendly. Your dog will have friends to play with and cuddle with and a fenced yard to roam around with chickens, goats, and ducks in the back (typically fenced off separately).

“James was great! We had to book last minute and he was happy to help. Xhiggy came back exhausted. His backyard is great and he also took X for a beach walk. Very attentive for our Girl. Thank you James.”

Thanks Heather!”

About: I grew up surrounded by both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. From an early age, I learned to appreciate their individual personalities, respect their boundaries, and recognize when they need attention, space, exercise, or simply some quiet time. While living in South Korea, I volunteered extensively with Dasom Rescue( in Seoul, Non-Profit Organization), caring for rescued dogs from a wide range of backgrounds and with many different personalities. I also volunteered as a flight companion volunteer, helping approximately 20 rescued dogs travel from South Korea to their new families in the United States and Canada. Today, I have two dogs of my own, rescued dog from Kill Shelter in Korea, whom I truly consider part of my family. I’m attentive to their daily routines, including walks, feeding, dental care, brushing, and supplements. As a dog mom myself, I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your babies. Our dogs are family, and choosing the right person to care for them isn’t something we take lightly. That’s why I want you to feel comfortable knowing that your dog will be treated with the same care, attention, and love that I would want for my own. ✔️ I’m home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I don’t have another job that takes me away from home. which means I can spend plenty of time with the dogs in my care and give them lots of attention throughout the day. ✔️ I also live right next to a beautiful park, so it’s easy to take dogs out for regular walks, fresh air, and potty breaks. Dogs are always kept safely leashed and supervised while we’re outside. 🐾. I can also adjust my routine to match your dog’s usual schedule as closely as possible, so they can feel comfortable and at home during their stay. 🐾❤️ ✔️I only care for one dog at a time, or a maximum of two, so , I can give each dog plenty of individual attention. ✔️ your dog does not have to share their space with a resident dog. If your dog prefers to be alone, my two dogs will stay with their dad at another house, so I can provide your dog with a peaceful, comfortable, and fully separate home environment during their stay. I’m especially careful to always know where the dogs are and to maintain a safe environment. I make sure there’s nothing within reach that they could accidentally eat or get into, and I always make sure their harnesses and leashes are secure. ✔️As a dog owner, I understand how important cleanliness is to your pet’s health and comfort. I maintain a clean, fresh, and welcoming environment, with sanitized floors, fresh bedding, and a comfortable space for every dog in my care. ✔️Dogs are always leashed and supervised outside, even for quick potty breaks. Our home is quiet and surrounded by nature, and I can provide a separate space for dogs who prefer some quiet time or need to be on their own. I’ll carefully follow your dog’s usual routine and any special instructions you provide to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾

“Thank you for taking such good care of Gus. It was a great comfort to know that he was well cared for while I had to attend all day meetings.”

About: As an only child, my pets were the closest things I had to siblings. I grew up with Rottweilers and pugs, and siamese cats! I do have a soft spot for these breeds (and know all about the pug care: wrinkle cleaning, ear cleaning, breathing difficulties, etc). My pets were sometimes treated better than I was, which I now have a deep appreciation for. Animals are a gift to us- they deserve to be treated as such! I am a stay at home mom, so I am available any hour of the day Monday to Sunday! I am flexible and willing to work my schedule around you and your pets. Growing up, my dogs were my babies. I believe pets need to be given lots of love, affection, and attention. We are eager and excited to welcome your pet into our home! We will welcome them with love, care and cuddles. I live with my family, who all love animals. My husband Evan, and our two boys (7yrs. & 1 yr.).

“Rachael is the best of the best! She was so helpful and accommodating while I dealt with a family emergency. Colin LOVED staying with her and her family and came home happy and exhausted each day. Rachael is a rare find and I am so grateful to have found her.”

“I had a fantastic experience with Alex as Rune’s dog sitter. Rune had a great time playing with her dogs, and she has a lovely space that’s perfect for hosting. Alex was extremely responsive, communicative, and took great photos throughout. Overall, I felt very reassured and happy having Rune stay with her.”
