Doggy Day Care Tay Valley

“Another great visit for Jackson with Nicole. He was happy to see her and had a fun play day with her family and other guests staying for doggy day care. He was not stressed and was very content when we picked him up. Thanks Nicole for taking such good care of Jackson.”

About: Dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, you name it! I have a decade of experience and care for your pet. With love and compassion I am happy to help. I have a very flexible schedule to meet your pets needs. Weekend, week day, or holiday availability. Pets need love and care 365 days a year! I am happy to follow your pets routine and make sure they are happy and safe while in my care. I understand that they will miss you and will do my best to make sure they enjoy our time together.

About: I've had dogs for the last 20 years, usually with four in the house at a time. We've had a Shih-tzu, three Jack-Shih-tzus, a Great Pyrenees, and now a solo Maltie-Poo named Dozer. Every dog I meet is a new friend, and I have to admit that I knew the names of all the dogs in my last neighborhood, and like maybe three of the owners names. Happy to walk active dogs that need long walks. For doggy day care and boarding we have to restrict it to small dogs because our own small dog is picky about which larger dogs he likes. Other animals: I've also taken care of farm animals. Dairy cows and calves, and feeding chickens and putting them in for the night. I've kept both freshwater and marine tanks and can check up on your fish or your reef while you're away. No worrying about your niece or nephew dumping a whole container of bug bites into the tank while you're gone and causing an ammonia spike. I've also kept constrictors and colubrids (but not currently), crested geckos, and dart frogs, and am familiar with the husbandry of each. I have a flexible schedule and am in between writing contracts at the moment so have lots of time available for scheduling check-ins and walks for local puppers. I can check-on and feed pets as needed, dispense necessary meds, walk them from your home, or load them in the car and take them to the Cataraqui Trail for longer walks / more active dogs.

“Daisy had another fun play day with Keyser. Nicole and Eddie give Daisy lots of attention and love which she thrives on. She came home one happy and tired pup :)”

About: Your pets deserve a place where they can feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely loved while you’re away—and that’s exactly what I provide. As a lifelong dog lover, devoted dog mama, and cat enthusiast, I offer a warm, welcoming, smoke-freehome where every furry guest is treated like family. Our home features cozy indoor spaces and a spacious yard perfect for playtime, sunbathing, or quiet exploration.
Because I work remotely, I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys cuddling, playing, or simply having a calm presence nearby, they’ll always feel supported and never alone. I also offer dog walking services, daytime care, and even 24-hour care when needed, giving you complete peace of mind no matter your schedule.
I’m passionate about nature and love walking forest paths and scenic trails, offering dogs enriching outdoor adventures tailored to their personality and pace. From energetic hikes to slow, sniff-filled strolls, every outing is meant to make them happy, fulfilled, and connected to the outdoors.
Your pet will also enjoy the gentle friendship of my sweet dog, Bella, who loves having company. And they’ll be welcomed with open arms by my two kids, both over the age of 10, who are devoted animal lovers. My son dreams of becoming a veterinarian, following in the footsteps of his grandfather—my dad—who was a vet.
With a nurturing family environment, plenty of space, constant companionship, and a deep love for animals, your pet will feel comfortable, cherished, and truly at home. 🐾 I currently work remotely running a coaching business as well as teaching fitness classes digitally. I have time to dedicate to spending good quality time with animals! Our home is on 8 acres surrounded by forest - we spend a lot of time trail walking - I like to do a minimum of 5km when I go for a walk, but I cater to the dogs needs first and foremost! In winter I love to cut trails while snowshoeing- my girl Bella loves to come with me and explore!

About: I'm 22, I've had animals my entire existence including reptiles. I live on 4 acres of mostly fenced in yard for your babies to run around. I'm flexible on anything you need for your babies. (And I can babysit your reptiles) I currently have no job but I'm looking for a part-time so I can continue to focus on meeting all sorts of new animals that need somewhere to snooze and play. I have a mostly fenced yard, three doggos that are super friendly to everything. I have experience with vet medicine and crate training. I have LOTS of safe dog toys that need to be played with.

About: *PLEASE NOTE THAT MY AVAILABILITY & CLIENT LIST IS NOW CLOSED FOR 2023. For additional updates. Hello! My name is Allie. I've owned four rescued huskies. I currently have two young rescued huskies and two cats! I walk, groom, feed, and train my animals. I have fostered two dogs, one which was a palliative case. I am comfortable giving medication and other medical care (ie: ear cleaning). I have been paid to board two dogs by a private client and had them as clients for a year. With the dog rescue I volunteer with, I have provided transport for dogs ranging in personality. I work full time from home, Monday - Friday. With my own dogs, they receive 4 walks per day (2 hours total), along with 30 mins of playtime. We visit a private fenced dog park. I spend most of my free time with my dogs. I am also heavily involved with an Ottawa based dog rescue. I transport dogs, have fostered, and do short term dog sitting for fosters. My dogs are fitted with a harness and I use a waist belt to walk them. No dropped leashes! Unless you have a preference, for safety, your dog would be double leashed - one waist belt and one slip lead. I have double front doors, helping to prevent any escaped dogs. I own two huskies so am very familiar with escape artists. Any toys or bones given (strictly only with request or permission from owner) will only be with the dog when supervised (helps to prevent obstructions & other possible injuries) I have a completely fenced backyard. However, your dog would still be supervised while outside. We will not meet other dogs while walking unless you would like your dog to. Proper communication will be used with other dog owners and off leash dogs will not be allowed to approach. This keeps all parties safe and comfortable.

About: With 200 acres of open space, your dog can explore on or off leash, follow wildlife trails, and relax on the porch for sunset views. I’m a full‑time mom and homemaker, and a serious dog lover at heart. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve completed years of training with both puppies and adult dogs. I treat every pup like family while still respecting their canine nature and what they need to thrive.

About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.

About: A loving home away from home where experienced care, small groups, country adventures, cuddles, and personalized attention make every dog feel like family. 🐾❤️message,call or text I currently work from home so I am flexible and available.
