Doggy Day Care in Canelo

About: I have owned and cared for many, many dogs over the years (also cats, a bird, fish, hamsters, turtles). I LOVE animals! I have cared for a very sick dog while her owner was out of the country. No one wants that to happen but I am dedicated to the care of all animals as if they were my own children. I understand each animals unique personality and needs. I love hiking and walking and there are no better companions than dogs. My first priority is keeping your pet safe, second is their happiness! I understand that having their owners away can be stressful so they need lots of love and exercise. I won't be walking multiple dogs so that I can give enough attention to each individual dog. I am retired and am available at home all day. I can come to your home to walk or check in on your animals any time. I have a fenced yard for your dog to play in and to be safe. I never leave the dogs in the yard unsupervised. My own dog will keep yours company.

“Samantha was great with my pup. I got multiple videos of her playing and having a good time with Samantha's dog and looking as happy as I could be. When it was time for the pup to come home, after she got her initial excitement of seeing us again out she napped for 4 hours straight a snoring like a lumberjack”

About: Hi! Available for (much of) Santa Cruz and Cochise Counties, including Ft Huachuca. I grew up on a farm, worked at a vet clinic, and have always had animals and pets when my life permitted. I have a passion for our furry "family members" as well as learning all different types of animal behavior. Dogs, cats, horses, cows, donkeys, fish, and even took care of a camel a time or two. My professional and athletic life has taken me around the world, and frankly, caring for pets of family, friends and neighbors throughout the years has still always been a most gratifying highlight! I have the patience and energy to match dogs of all temperaments, so let me know how I can support you and your family! If my profile is visible, it means I have plenty of time to help out with your furry family members, be it pet-sitting, walking, or just checking in on them. I have a highly-flexible schedule and a vehicle large enough to crate/transport if needed. As far as housesitting, depending on the proximity, would be flexible on either daily check-in and/or possibly overnights. Please reach out in advance to discuss. I live on a large ranch but do prefer to keep them leashed when walking (until I know they heel well AND to keep YOU more confident). I'm flexible on this based on consults with you. They would sleep indoors, and if you prefer, I could easily crate as well. Non-smoking home. You can bet I'll treat them as my own!

“I work nights and I book super last minute but Jackie always accommodates and is there to help out! My dog loves going with Jackie. She took him to the park and he comes happy and healthy! Thank you!!”

“Christine and her husband were incredible. Very friendly people and took great care of my boys for the day. Ensured they got plenty of time outside to play and sent me pictures to put my mind at ease. Will definitely use them again!”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was young. I professionally dog sat regularly for 3 individuals over a period of 5 years. I have volunteer experience with medical fostering for animals with the county pet shelters. I am in Tucson again, my home town. I work as a full time high school teacher during the day. Monday-Friday I'm available after 4:30 pm and Saturdays and Sundays are flexible. For drop-ins and walks I will make sure your animal is safe and given lots of attention under my care. I'm a trust worthy person who has experience caring for animals in my home and clients homes. Please reach out to me for dog walks, drop-ins or possibly dog/cat sitting at your house (as currently I am unable to host animals at my residence).

“Christianna is awesome. She greeted us with the other pups secured so Matilda would not be overwhelmed and gave her a doggie massage to get to know her. She introduced Matilda to the other pups slowly and provided me lots of pictures and updates. My favorite was a video of Matilda playing with her new friends! She made the whole doggy daycare easy for both me and Matilda.”

About: I’ve had all sorts of animals all my life. We have always had dogs since I can remember. All different breeds and all different sizes, from chihuahua to Great Dane. I’ve worked at stables, dog sat outside of rover in the past, and have 4 rescue babies of my own! I also have 2 horses. I am currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to make sure I give every animal the attention and love they need. For in home boarding there is always someone home unless we go out as a family. I have a fenced in yard and 3 of my own dogs. We encourage in home animals if boarding. I’m willing to walk, or play outside at your house if doing drop ins.

“Ivy and Matt are great! Very accommodating and responsive! Muffin had a great time at their place with Gracie. Will definitely use them again for future visits in Houston.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 5 years old, I’ve also been the one friends and family call to care for their pets while they’re away. I have so much love for animals that watching them is a privilege and not just a job :) I’m currently a preschool teacher, but I have lots of veterinary experience! I’ve spent time working for a mobile veterinarian, as well as two other animal hospitals here in town. With that being said, your fur baby would be in great hands :) I work day shift- Monday through Friday- so I can let your pup out in the morning, before I go to work, on my lunch break, and then again before bed. I’m off every weekend so I’m available at all times those days. Animals are like family to me, so I am always petting, cuddling and playing with them. They will get all the attention they could ask for :)

About: Hello — my name is Christopher and I am currently stationed here at Fort Benning. I’ve been around animals my entire life, and honestly, if this army thing doesn’t work out, I’d love to be a Vet. I’m always the “go-to” person to watch after family/friends animals — they love it here! I’m currently working from 0900 to 1500 everyday . I am waiting to leave to my follow on assignment, which will be around March. My wife works from home, so she will be there every hour of the day! I have an open house for your animals. My house is four bedrooms, and the area outside is the perfect area for a dogs dream

About: I’m a caring and dependable sitter who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I’m patient, attentive, and quick to pick up on each pet’s unique needs and personality. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for by sticking closely to their usual routine. You can count on me to provide regular updates and photos, so you always have peace of mind while you’re away! I currently stay at home and work part-time online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to provide consistent attention, walks, and care throughout the day while easily following your pet’s routine. I try to keep things as normal and comfortable as possible for your pet. I stick to their routine, give them attention, and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m also very respectful in people’s homes and keep everything clean. I just want your pet to feel good and you to not have to worry.

“I was a little nervous at first about leaving my dogs with anyone, but as soon as I met Anna, I knew they were in good hands. She kept me updated with pics and letting me know how they were doing the whole time I was gone. I had a much better time not having to worry about them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter.”

I’m 30 years old and have grown up with multiple dogs and cats my whole life. I have a lot of experience in caring for dogs and cats alike. I know dogs need frequent potty breaks and to be played with. None of that will be an issue for me! I have 3 dogs and 2 cats and live with my fiancée. I have 2 stunning Pitbulls a beautiful Rottweiler and 2 beautiful tabby cats. All of whom get along and love each other. There is no doubt in my mind that my animals will love yours and play with them just as much as they do each other :) I work from home so I’m available 24/7 to watch your pets here and let them out as frequently as needed. There is also a large back yard to play in. Big or small I’ll watch them all! I have a large and spacious back yard with tall fencing so there is plenty of space for your dogs to play In . Since I work from home, ensuring my pets and your pets get frequent attention and care and have the ability to go outside whenever they want. I keep close eyes on all pets when sitting, I ensure everyone is getting along and playing nice. I will play with them snuggle with them and give them lots of treats and praise.

“Gladys was awesome and polite! When picked up, Momo was happy and tired (good for me) and I'm glad the "Gladys" home welcomed her as they did. I appreciate all she did and hope to book her again in the future!”

About: I have experience with dog training, including basic obedience and some service-related training, which helps me reinforce good habits and provide structure. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I’ve cared for other dogs in the past and have my own fur baby, so I understand the level of trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I’m experienced with puppies who need consistency and training, as well as senior dogs who may need extra patience and gentle care. I focus on personalized, attentive care—making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m available Sunday through Saturday and can be flexible with scheduling. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, so I’m able to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, and playtime throughout the day. On weekends, I spend extra time with my dog going to parks or hiking, and I love including pets in safe, fun outdoor activities. I always come prepared with plenty of water, treats, and outdoor toys to keep pets happy, active, and comfortable! I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet. My apartment complex has a medium-sized dog park, plus there’s a larger community park nearby for extra exercise and enrichment. I stick closely to each pet’s routine—feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I always supervise outdoor time and keep spaces clean and comfortable so your pet feels secure and at home.

“Malissa took wonderful care of our two doxies! They were so excited to go to her house every morning. She sent so many adorable pictures throughout their stay and we will definitely consider booking her again!”

“Jack and Bruno were happy to explore the fenced yard at Laura’s home, they hardly noticed that we left. Del took them for a walk, which they love them Laura shared a picture of them laying on the couch with her. Great people, we will go back again!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience raising and caring for dogs from the very beginning of their lives. As an AKC puppy breeder, I’ve worked closely with litters from birth through their transition into new homes, which has given me a deep understanding of puppy behavior, early training, and proper care routines. I’m confident working with young puppies, including crate training, potty training, feeding schedules, and helping them feel safe and secure. I also have experience providing emotional support–focused care, as my own dog is an ESA, so I’m very attentive to each pet’s emotional needs, not just their physical care. Beyond puppies, I provide patient, gentle care for dogs of all ages, including seniors who may need a slower pace, extra comfort, or medication support. I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel loved, safe, and relaxed while you’re away. What really makes my care different is the level of attention and connection I give. I don’t just “watch” pets—I build trust with them, understand their routines, and create a calm, nurturing environment so they feel completely at home. I am currently a stay at home mom to a two year old. So I have plenty of flexibility to make sure everyone keeps their routines. I have a fenced area, as well as 4 acres of property for the animals to play on. I also have large crates if the animals are crate trained.
