Doggy Day Care Thurso

“Ginger just came back from her first visit with Jessica and Dozer. Jessica was great at making Ginger feel safe and secure in this new environment and giving her some love and cuddles. Jessica sent me a bunch of pictures which was awesome and reassuring to me. Dozer (her big dog) was also great at giving Ginger the space she needed when we first got there. I will definitely bring Ginger back to Jessica’s!”

“Taylor did such an amazing job. My puppy is exhausted from daycare. Taylor took Bernie out for walks and gave me updates when asked. She also helped Bernie meet his first cat and enjoyed his type. Will sure be using Taylor in the future.”

About: My Aussie, Ava, is 5 years old and knows ~60+ commands. When looking after dogs that belong to friends/family they are treated the same as my Ava; that goes for training, obedience, walks, you name it! If there's a trick you want your dog to learn, I will do my best to help! I Love all animals although I am a dog person, through and through. My two cats, Polo & Pan, are incredible and loved equally. Can't wait to play fetch with your dog or scratch your cat behind the ears :) I'm off work for the time being, love animals and most of all, love being outside in nature breathing in the sweet fresh air! That being said, I am available all day Monday to Friday and most weekends. We can chat schedule and have a consistent time table My animals are my children. They receive the same love and care any human family member would be entitled to. I love them, treat them with respect, train them with enthusiasm and cuddle them each and every day. Animals are awesome, no!?

“Maverick had a great day at the farm. Pictures showed his tail wagging and happy. I think it’s a place he will enjoy from time to time! We will be back.”

About: Salut 😊 Les animaux ont toujours eu une grande place dans ma vie et j’adore prendre soin d’eux comme s’ils faisaient partie de la famille. Je suis une personne douce, calme et attentive, et je prends le temps de m’adapter à la personnalité et aux besoins de chaque animal. Que ce soit pour une promenade, une visite à domicile ou une garde, votre compagnon recevra beaucoup d’attention, d’affection et de patience. Je comprends aussi que ce n’est pas toujours facile de laisser son animal à quelqu’un d’autre, donc j’envoie volontiers des nouvelles et des photos pour vous rassurer pendant votre absence 😊 Je suis à l’aise avec : * les chiens énergiques * les animaux timides ou anxieux * les chats * les routines et consignes particulières * les demandes de dernière minute selon mes disponibilités Mon objectif est que votre animal se sente en sécurité, aimé et confortable pendant votre absence ❤️ Je cherche à bâtir ma clientèle, donc mes tarifs sont actuellement plus avantageux 😊 Au plaisir de rencontrer votre compagnon ! 🐾 Prendre soin des animaux fait déjà partie de mon quotidien. J’aime intégrer les promenades, les visites et les moments de jeu dans ma routine, et je prends le temps de m’adapter aux besoins de chaque animal. Que ce soit pour une courte visite ou une garde plus longue, je m’assure qu’ils reçoivent de l’attention, de l’affection et une présence rassurante. Je prends soin des animaux avec beaucoup d’attention, de douceur et en respectant leurs habitudes. Chez les propriétaires, je m’assure de suivre les consignes données (nourriture, promenades, jeux, médicaments si nécessaire) afin que l’animal reste dans sa routine et se sente en sécurité dans son environnement. Lors des promenades, je m’adapte au rythme du chien et je veille à ce qu’il dépense son énergie de façon sécuritaire et agréable. Pour les visites à domicile, je prends aussi le temps de donner de l’affection, de jouer avec l’animal et de vérifier qu’il va bien avant de repartir. Si l’animal est accueilli chez moi, je lui offre un environnement calme, sécuritaire et confortable, avec des moments de jeu, des promenades régulières et beaucoup de présence afin qu’il se sente comme à la maison.

About: With a lifetime of experience around large dogs, I’m confident caring for breeds of all sizes and temperaments. I prioritize safety, routine, exercise, and personalized attention so you can feel completely at ease while away. Doggy daycare/dog walking fits really naturally into my routine because I already have dedicated days off during the week and love staying active. I work full time, but on my available days I’m home and able to give dogs lots of attention, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. Your pet will get lots of attention, walks, playtime, and love. I stick to their routine so they feel comfortable, but I also make sure they’re getting plenty of stimulation and not just sitting around bored. At my place, they’ve got a safe, relaxed space to hang out and settle in like they belong there. In a client’s home, I keep things consistent so they feel secure in their own environment.

“Erin was awesome! She tired our pup out really well and everything went really good! She sent lots of updates and photos and I’m sure our puppy got way more activity then he usually does! Will definetly use again!”

About: Being a mom to my border collie/aussie shepherd for almost 5 years showed me how pure a pet’s love is, and it made me want to look for more opportunities to spend time with pets. I currently volunteer at Penny Lane Animal Sanctuary, where I help take care of animals that come from situations of abuse and neglect. It is hard, rewarding work and I get to spend some time with cows, goats, sheep’s (and more!) while I am at it. I love taking care of animals and getting to know their quirks and unique personality. With a pretty high-energy dog that requires long walks, lots of exercise and mental stimulation, I can help you taking care of your pet, if you are struggling to find the time or the energy, or if you are going on vacation. I am available for walks, drop ins, house sitting, boarding or daycare. Send me a note if you’d like to schedule a meet and greet! 🐶 My schedule is pretty flexible. Whether it’s during the weekend, in the afternoon, evening, or a lunch drop in, my schedule is flexible enough to accommodate that. If you have an emergency event and need to leave the house, I can make myself available!

“Caroline est très gentille, on voit qu’elle adore les chiens, Baloo à apprécié ce premier séjour chez Caroline, il y en aura d’autres. Merci!”

“Our pup Nova has seperarion anxiety and it's been difficult for us to leave her anywhere for more than one day. We've tried other pet sitters and kennels and it would always break our hearts to see how stressed she would get. We're so fortunate to have found Debbie and Greg. We had a few trial daycare stays before a longer trip in the Fall and while Nova was initially nervous she was able to settle into their home after the first stay. I can't express enough how relieved we are to have found people that Nova feels comfortable with. We can finally go on vacation without having to stress. Debbie and Greg have a calmness about them that helps Nova deal with her anxiety of being without us. They have a calm home environment and a nice backyard that Nova enjoys during her stays. I would highly recommend especially for pup parents that may have a pup with some separation anxiety. Debbie and Greg are great for Nova and we'll be able to go on vacation knowing she's comfortable and being well cared for.”

“My Lili was warmly welcomed and cared for at Eric's place. I am grateful to have met such kind people, and their dog Guiness is very sweet! Lili looks forward to spending time with her new "friends" soon.”

“Millie spent her first day with Mellissa and it went so well! She was given so much attention and loving and enjoyed playing and co-existing with the gentle giant Jasper. Mellissa sent me several updates, photos and videos throughout the day to reassure us that all was well. Thank you so much Mellissa!”
