Doggy Day Care Bostwick

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I’m very attentive pet lover I enjoy spending time with animals, will play with, walk, feed, and care for your dog as if he or she is my own. I have dog sat for many friends and family members. Even got offered pets because of how well they seen me take care animals. I Have experience administering medicine, giving baths, nursing dogs back to health, training, and more. I’m very energetic and playful and will make sure your pet gets the proper exercise and burn off all that extra energy. I volunteer at the local animal shelter taking dogs on bow wow break out and fostering. I have 2 dogs stormy and koda. Stormy just turned a year old and koda is 6 months old very playful and loves other animals. We go on long walks in the park and on nearby trails. They love car rides and pup cups from Jermiah’s. I have two 4 year old cats Chloe, and Oliver that have their own room and kept separate from other animals when needed. I work from home overnight and I home school my 7 year old daughter so I’m home majority of the time outside of running errands. Morning feeding happen between 6 and 8am followed by yard play and then nap time. Pm feeding are usually between 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm followed by a little time to burn off steam or a walk before bedtime. I do let pets out to use the bathroom every 2 to 4 hours. Bowls and crates are washed and kept clean daily along with vacuuming the floors. Loving and caring for your pet as if it’s my own, long walks, supervised play time, separate feedings, time to decompress, pets will always be leashed or in a secure enclosed area. Pets are allowed on furniture. I will keep pet owners updated with pictures and videos throughout visit. Calls and text anytime day or night are welcome.

“I highly recommend Lisa. It's always difficult to find someone to take care of pets last minute during the holidays. She responded quickly and welcomed my Suki with a lot of love. Thank you Lisa”

About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life from cats to goffin cockatoo!! I really love animals they are so unique and have such a personality! I'm a mom of four I work a part time job during school hours. Two out of my four children are in school, I have a very flexible schedule, I can pretty much accommodate any needs for your animals. My oldest child does school at home so she’s also available during the day when I am at work for potty breaks and companionship, etc.. I have a fenced in yard, my home nice and cozy. My oldest daughter loves to have any of our doggy guests sleep in her bed with her she loves to cuddle them!!

“Nelli and her daughter were very great with taking care of Buddy. The love and care they gave Buddy speak volumes. Buddy was going through a "scared of being around people" stage, but around Nelli and her daughter, he warmed up instantly and really enjoyed being around them. Buddy was in good hands during the two times I had to drop him off with Nelli. She is someone I can trust and feel comfortable leaving my young puppy with. I will be using her services in the future, and highly recommended her to anyone who needs someone to dog sit, walk the dog, or board. If there were 10 stars, that's what I would give her!”

“They took good care of my boy everyone hit it off right from the start Max and their dog Rockey were instant buds. When I picked him up I could tell by Max's affection toward Rachel and her husband they are sweet dog lovers this was a playdate but have them booked for watching him when we go on vacation”

“Katherine and her family took such great care of Chili on such short notice! She was very communicative, sent tons of photos and updates, and was all around very pleasant to work with. I’d definitely use her and her family again while in St. Augustine.”

About: Hi Everyone, My name is Penny and thank you for considering me as your Pet Caregiver. I have had pets (mostly dogs) in my life since a very young child. The unconditional love they provide always makes my heart smile and I will always care for your fur babies as if they are my own :) I have spent the last 20 years caring for my own 4 very special dogs and unfortunately it came time for them to cross the rainbow bridge due to age. I miss caring for them and would love to now spend my time assisting you in caring for your Fur Baby. I have had the pleasure of caring for my neighbors animals (including chickens) while they have traveled and can provide references upon request. I look forward to meeting with you and your beloved pets 🐾 I am currently a caretaker for an elderly post surgical neighbor and have a lot of free time most days. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog or cat when you are unable to be at home for them :) I am trustworthy and reliable to take care of your precious fur babies on my down time. I will follow all of your instructions and give them all the love they need while you are away.

“Our mini golden doodle, Cooper, just loved his play date at Nancy’s home! She provided pictures, updates, and her responses were quick. We definitely would schedule another playtime in the future. 10 stars for sure!”

“I cannot express in words properly how absolutely wonderful Natalie was with our big goofy hound. Natalie put all of our anxieties at ease with her gentle nature and patience. Our pup seemed to look forward to his second day with her and had zero separation anxiety!!! Thank you Natalie for taking such great care of our fur baby!!!!!!!!”

“This is Louie’s second visit with Sarah. He was SO excited when we pulled up, his entire tail and lower half of his body was wagging and he was incredibly eager to go inside and play with the other dogs. And that is Louie’s review, which I believe would go something like this: “Mom, when can I go back and play?? Please??””

About: Care for 30-60 pounds doggies. My dogs are senior dogs , mellowed, very easy going. May not be a good fit for a young puppy younger then 2. At this time I am only able to accept doodles due to my work. I work with food, bake all kinds of pastries and breads. Only non shedding pups at this time as I cannot have any hair around my kitchen. I am home most of the time so potty breaks can be as often as needed. My pets are my children. When asked how many kids do I have I say 4. Two human babies and 2 animal babies. My pups are very gentle with my children and I would like to continue with such puppies/ guests. I have been around dogs all of my life. Grew up in Poland with family who had farms and all kinds of animals. Dogs were always around. Playing with them was part of growing up and having fun. Now I have 2 sheepadoodles (Lilly and Bella) who are wonderful companions. They are big, furry, loving addition to my family. Cannot imagine living without them. My 4 legged babies can get me smiling on a bad day. I care about them as much I as do about my human children. They absolutely love humans, and get along with other dogs.. I am home almost all the time so your dogs will not feel lonely. Also doggies are allowed to run freely , there are no cages. Our yard is fenced and pretty big with toys to play with. I would like to take dogs between 30-60 pounds. just because mine are 50 and 70 pounds and by my experience they do play better. I take only 1 guest pup at the time so the experience is more personal. Also that helps me to keep all of them safe .... there are 4 cameras in our house so I can have an eye on my furry babies even when I am grocery shopping or running errands. Safety and love is what I like to share. I had taken a break from Bording due to personal issues. When pregnant with second child someone smashed into my car. Don’t remember anything. Woke up in a hospital couple of days later. High risk pregnancy. My daughter is 6 now and I decided to resume taking a doggie companion. It is very important I only have gentle dogs guests. Especially Gentle with children around. Thank you for understanding. I am stay home mom. If I go out it won’t be longer than 3 -4 hours most of the Time. I have been stay home mom for 10 years now. I have a fenced yard and 2 doggies to keep your pup company. If I step out it is for couple of hours only. I have 4 cameras in my home to check on them as often as I want to.

About: My husband and I love animals and both were raised around them our whole childhoods. We have four kiddos who were also raised around dogs. We have a border collie who absolutely loves playing with other pups. We’d love to help watch your dog while you go out of town! We take our dog for morning, afternoon, and evening walks. We also love to throw the ball for him in our fenced backyard. If this sounds like a good fit for your pup, we’d love to help! My husband works full time from home but gets a good amount of breaks. I am a stay at home mom so I’m able to play with our dog and any animals we’d be watching often. My husband and I both love to take our dog for walks and throw the ball for him. We’d love for your dog (s) to join! I have a fenced yard and the sweetest border collie that will keep your pup company! I have all the time in the world (along with my kiddos) to give your dog(s) lots of love!

“Love Amelia and her entire sweet family. She took amazing care of our little chihuahua who is very nervous about being away from home. The updates and photos left me very confident and happy that I chose Amelia. She is wonderful and I hope Sophie can stay with her in the future!”

About: As a dedicated pet parent to my dog, Bagel, and two cats, I understand firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. With years of experience navigating multiple PCS moves, I’ve become skilled at helping animals adjust to new environments and routines. I bring that same patience, love, and reliability to every pet I care for—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply providing comfort while you're away. I treat every pet like my own and ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s not just a task, it’s a lifestyle! As a cat parent myself, I'm used to feeding schedules, litter box duty, playtime, and the occasional 3 a.m. zoomies. I structure my days around the needs of the pets I care for, making sure they get the attention, consistency, and love they deserve. Whether it’s stopping by for a visit, giving meds, or just being a calming presence, I always make time for quality care and connection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep things calm, consistent, and just like you left them. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether it’s scheduled walks and playtime for dogs, or quiet companionship and litter box duty for cats. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, and giving each pet the individual attention they need to feel safe and happy. I always treat your home with respect and your pets like family—whether that means tug-of-war in the yard, a slow stroll with a senior pup, or a cozy cuddle session with a shy kitty.

About: Hi! My name is Kira, and I am beginning to pet sit again after a few years off. I have had pets my entire life and began pet sitting regularly about 7 years ago. I love animals and love being able to spend time with them and help them feel comfortable. I would love to have repeat clients to help your pets feel like they have a home away from home. We have a large home and outdoor space to accommodate multiple pets. You can let me know your preference of whether you’d like them kept separate or allowed to play with and interact with others. You can also let me know you prefer for them to have a room, roam, or be kept in their crate. Please reach out with any questions! I always have open communication with my families. I’m a SAHM, so my schedule revolves around my kiddos and the pets we’re caring for! My children are still young, so we spend a lot of our time at home. They LOVE dogs, so your pups will get tons of extra love and attention when staying at our home. I can ensure your pet gets as much attention as necessary to ensure a comfortable pet sitting experience. I’m happy to meet your pet before jumping into their care. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with whoever you’re leaving your pet with. Please let me know if you’d like to meet at my house, have me come to yours, or elsewhere to ensure I’m a good fit for your furry family members.
