Doggy Day Care in Byron

About: With over 25 years of experience in caring for dogs and horses, I approach pet sitting with an understanding of animal behavior and a compassionate approach. Whether your furry friend is a playful pup or an anxious companion, I use positive reinforcement techniques to create a safe and nurturing environment. I have a friendly 4-year-old golden retriever, Lily, who gets along wonderfully with other dogs, providing a perfect playmate for your pup. I regularly care for friends and family's pets, and have watched dogs recovering from surgeries and in need of medication. Our spacious 2.5-acre property offers plenty of room for dogs to roam, explore, and enjoy playtime in a safe setting. From daily walks to playing fetch in the yard, your pets will be in loving hands. Having used Rover to book pet care for my dog, Lily, I understand that leaving your dog can be nerve-wracking. Let me provide the peace of mind you deserve while you're away, knowing your beloved dog is receiving top-notch care! Working from home allows me to spend time with your dog throughout the day and attend to them as much as needed. I walk every day and am happy to take your pup along with me if they love walks too! With 2.5 acres and a super friendly, welcoming golden retriever, Lily, I'd love to welcome your dog into our home. We want your dog(s) to cozy in and feel at home, and welcome them sleeping in our room or in their crate, however they are most comfortable.

About: I have been around animals my entire life and currently own a dachshund, golden doodle, 4 goats & 24 chickens. I work from home most of the week so I am flexible to give you pet all of the cuddles while you are away. I love giving my dogs the chance to meet new friends. I am comfortable around any size dog and have plenty of experience. Feel free to contact me and consider my services. I am currently working part time at home and part time at work. I also have the flexibility to stay home with your pet if necessary. I have 6 acres of property for your baby to explore but can keep on a leash if more comfortable roaming with me. If your baby is most comfortable in a crate or snuggling in bed either is fine with me.

About: I've had dogs my whole life and have personally trained my own dogs very well. I love dogs and am a great person to look after anyone's pet. I work at home on the computer. So I have time to take care of my dogs as well as others. I'm outside playing with my dogs all the time. I have 20 acres of land that is super safe for dogs. I have a fenced in area with a pool dogs are welcome to and fenced in grass backyard area that I keep open so dogs can go in and out for food/water and bathroom. I have few miles of custom made walking trails safe for dogs. All really safe and far from roads in the middle of the neighborhood block. All dogs have a lot of fun at my house. I have tons of room in my house. My front yard is incredibly spacious and has an electric pavilion that I keep food and water for dogs at in the daytime.

While our yard isn’t fully fenced, I do have a secure, gated outdoor area where dogs can safely play and stretch their legs under my supervision. With my nursing background, I’m comfortable providing both oral and injectable medications, and I take pride in making sure every pet’s health and safety come first.

About: I grew up and still live on a farm. I have kept dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, etc. throughout my life. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. I work from home and know how frustrating it can be to worry about your pets while on vacation. I will send photos and videos of your fur family while you're away so you can stay in touch while you're away. My preference is to care for your fur family in a comfortable environment, their normal home. I am happy to host your fur family in my home, but I already have 2 small dogs, so I think they would be more comfortable if I came to them.

“I know Fred loved it there and loved Ziggy. Taking him home he had no stress. He had a wonderful time, and wanted to go back today. I had to look at pout face today! Thank you for taking good care of him! We will be back.. Julie Richards”

About: I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have taken care of and raised 5 litters of puppies from birth alongside their mother. I weined them from their mother's milk and administered their first round of shots. At about 8 weeks of age they went off to their new homes. Ive dealt with hernias on dogs, dogs with heartworm, shedding, long nails. You name it. I am self employed so my schedule is flexible. I also have a landscape maintenance business that I schedule morning and afternoon hours for. I request that arrangements be made at least 24 hours ahead of requested date. I have a black lab who loves friends. Humans and dogs. I am able to crate animals if need be and folllow any special diets your dog may need. Plenty of toys here also.

“Julie was absolutely wonderful. Best of all: she provided a loving environment for my dogs.”
