Doggy Day Care Carleton

“With my first puppy I quickly became worried i'd never be able to take a vacation. George eased my own separation anxiety and I was comfortable taking my first day trip away from my 8 month old puppy knowing she was safe and cared for.”

About: I've had dogs my whole life. Currently, we have 4 dogs. I've had great experiences with Rover and would like to provide the same care we have received. I have been around all ages of dogs - my children (10 years old and 11 years old) absolutely love animals. From puppies to senior care, we will make sure your fur-baby has a comfortable, playful stay! I am currently staying at home with the kids and homeschooling. Someone will be home unless we run to the store. We are very consistent taking our dogs out with a fenced in yard. I have a fenced in yard - animals are allowed on furniture. We don't crate our animals but we are able to if that is your baby's routine.

“Katie was great with our small old dog! She sent several pictures and updates and was clearly very gentle and caring and attentive. We'll definitely be using her again!”

“Novah had a great day with Rachel and Michael and Ember! Novah loved running in their very large fenced in yard. Rachel went out of her way to make sure everything went smoothly. And Michael spent a long time with Novah outside playing with her and working on training activities. I highly recommend Rachel if you want a fun and safe place for your dog for day care! Thank you Rachel and Michael! Novah is excited to see you all again soon!”

“Paula was very welcoming and warm to Bella. She has a great big yard and her dog Satchmo is a sweetie! Thanks for keeping an eye on our fur baby!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. As a kid, we always had at least 3 dogs! As an adult, I adopted my own dog, a miniature daschund, who lived to be 16.5 years old, and I also had a cocker spaniel, who lived to be 12 years old. So I have plenty of experience with elderly dogs. I now have aa 5 year old Labrador retriever. He has so much energy, loves to walk and play in the yard, and would LOVE to meet your furry friend. My days are open to help you with your pet care needs! May days are wide open to help you with your pet care needs! I do daily walks with my own dog and work on training with him whenever I can. And we love to play fetch! I have a fenced yard for the dogs to run and play. I have a baby pool for the hot days, my dog loves water! I also have plenty of toys to play with.

“Sydney was great with my dogs. It was the first time I had left them with a sitter. I will be using Sydney again.”

“Samantha was amazing! My husband and I took Maru to Michigan and needed someone to watch her while we attended an event. Maru spent two days with Samantha’s family, and we picked her up at nights. Our puppy is almost 6 months old and hadn’t been around many people or dogs, but Samantha and her family gave her outstanding care and great socialization. Maru came back to us happy and loved. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone who wants their dog to be safe, happy, and well-socialized while they’re away.”

About: Hi! My name is Dom, and caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, including two small dogs, two large dogs, and a cat, so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, energy level, and unique needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone patient and dependable nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and updates so you can have peace of mind. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your furry family member. I look forward to meeting you and giving your pet the care, love, and attention they deserve! My husband and I both work from home. We are available to host pets through our the week, starting at 7am through true evening. We are able to accommodate special schedules. We have a fenced in property and separate home for any pets. Our 2 dogs will be able to keep your pet company and we are able to crate dogs.

“Phoebe had a great visit with Kaeden! It was her first daycare experience. Kaeden communicated well, answered all of my questions, and provides lots of photos. The backyard area is very secure. We will be back!”

I am close to a nature trail for great walks and nice dog accepted parks. I can do dogs nails, bathing and brushing as far as grooming goes. If you have any special request not listed I am flexible. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members. Thanks!

“Anthony was great. We did a meet and greet and when I dropped her off the day, he sent me lots of pictures to reassure me Tilly was content and safe. He took her for walks and spoiled her. I plan to use him again. 5 stars.”

About: Hi! I’m TJ (they/he) Since joining Rover in 2022, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, multi-pet households, and even a bearded dragon. I also have two cats of my own and regularly care for 3 dogs and 4 cats during the week, so pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. Through my experience, I’ve developed a thoughtful and adaptable approach to caring for pets with different personalities, comfort levels, and energy levels. Whether that means keeping up with feeding routines, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box care, playtime, treats, or helping a pet settle down and feel comfortable, I always try to adjust my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience with overnight stays and caring for both dogs and cats in the same home. I pay close attention to behavior and routine, keep the environment clean and low-stress, and communicate with owners if anything comes up so I can care for their pets the way they prefer. I do work late nights most of the week, but I strive to keep my schedule as flexible as possible :) I approach every booking with the same care and dedication I’d want for my own pets, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Please note that while my legal name appears on my profile, I prefer to go by TJ. I’m excited to meet your pets and provide them with personalized, dependable care! I always make sure to spend as much time with my pets as possible and take care of their needs to let them know they are loved:) I have two cats of my own, so I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and secure in their environment. Caring for them is part of my everyday routine, from feeding and fresh water to litter box care, attention, and making sure they feel at ease in their space. I’ve also been regularly caring for 3 dogs and 4 cats during the week since July 2025, so I understand the importance of following each pet’s routine carefully and providing dependable, attentive care while their owners are away.

“Megan and Milo were great hosts to my Bentley for a few hours. We had great communication throughout the visit and Bentley came home happy and sleepy. Definitely will be booking again. Thank you!”

“Lydia is always amazing with our dog and he comes home happy and healthy! They are our go-to pet sitters whenever we need someone to watch our pup.”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was born and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently do not have any dogs as my sweet boy crossed the rainbow bridge in July 2026. I have experience with dogs of different ages, personalities, energy levels, temperaments and needs; from playful puppies to loving seniors who need a little extra patience, comfort and attention. I don't believe in simply "watching" a dog. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and at home while their family is away. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give each dog. I am attentive to their routines, personalities, body language and little quirks. Your dog won't just be another booking to me. They will be a guest in my home and treated like one of my own. I work from home and so I am here to provide attention and not just put them in a crate. Dogs will have free roam, unless requested to be in a crate from their family. I also only book one family at a time. I believe dogs do best when they receive plenty of individual attention so I keep my environment comfortable and just want to make their routine and stay feel as normal and comfortable as possible. I will offer photos, videos and updates so you can relax and know your pup is happy and doing well! I have cared for dogs through all stages of life, including senior care. I am comfortable with medications, routines, and keeping a close eye on changes in behavior or well-being and giving older dogs the extra TLC they may need. One of the most meaningful parts of my experience was caring for my own dog, Bear. When he was diagnosed with kidney disease, I was initially told that because he was almost 14, he may only have about six months. I devoted myself to his care and learned everything I could about CKD. I ultimately helped reverse his disease from stage 3 to stage 1 and he lived to be 16 1/2 . Caring for him taught me just how important patience, attentiveness, consistency and advocating for your pet can be. After a lifetime of having dogs by my side, I am not quite ready for another dog of my own yet, but I miss having a dog to care for and the joy they bring. Rover feels like the perfect way for me provide the kind of loving, attentive care I would want for my own without making it a full time commitment just yet. I would love to meet your pup and give them a wonderful home away from home while you're away! I currently work from home and can take breaks throughout the day, so your pup will get the care they need! I’m able to provide plenty of potty breaks, playtime, attention, and companionship throughout the day, so they won’t be left alone for long periods of time and my office door is always open! I have a fenced yard where your pup can safely play and get outside. I provide a calm, loving environment and will follow your pet’s routine, feeding instructions, and any special needs. I can also easily crate your dog if needed and will always make their safety and comfort a priority. Your dog will be treated like family, and can free roam in my home, but I will also respect the routine and rules you have established at home.
