Doggy Day Care Central

“Sloane is the BEST!! Her updates are detailed with lots of photos, and as an anxious dog mom, I really appreciate that! Cooper has such a great time with her and always comes home tired from all the fun. 10/10, cannot recommend more!”

“I was so thankful Arden could make time for my last minute request. She was so communicative and tried hard to give river his walks but he wasn’t having it that day. She didn’t give up easily on him and tried again later, she was very kind about everything and I would try using her again when River is in better spirits.”

Robyn M.

“Archer had a fantastic day with Brittany! She kept me updated on how he was doing, took him to the dog park, sent pics, was very responsive. Would definitely use again.”

Jordan G.

“Karissa and her kids were amazing with my Brinkley! Super sweet and communicative. Followed instructions and administered meds my pup needed. Will definitely be my go-to sitter in Raleigh!!”

River B.

“Our pup had amazing time and got along great with Otis!! I would highly recommend Natalie for doggie daycare and plan to reach out in the future when we need someone to watch our pup!!”

Kelsey T.

“We’re so grateful we found Isabel to care for our Luna! Our dog, who’s usually slow to warm up, felt right at home immediately. The updates and photos gave us so much peace of mind—it’s clear she truly loves and cares for every dog like her own. We’re looking forward to Luna’s first overnight stay and an already booked longer visit with Isabel. Highly recommend!”

Dranilda F.

“Re’Anna was so kind and understanding. She was able to accept my last minute booking for doggy day care. Rambo had such a good time. Her kids were really good with him too! Definitely will be booking with her when I’m in the area again!!!”

Kelva R.

“Dawn is a great dog sitter. She took lots of photos, and her dog Rice was a wonderful host too! She took care of Ruby and Toasty for the day in her home as a "trial run" to make sure all 3 dogs were compatible so we will definitely be using her in the future for extended stays. Highly recommend.”

About: I grew up with labs and retrievers but now live alone with my 2 cats (who are pretty much used to dogs, but still wary of them). I watch peoples dogs and foster with Saving Grace when I can so have experience with a wide range of dogs. I am an engineer but am taking time off from that job. One favorite thing to do with a dog I watch is taking them to my building’s fenced in private dog walk and playing fetch! I have a large dog crate if that is better for sitting/boarding but only if that is part of their normal routine. Pets are allowed on the furniture (also if normal) and since I have pets already, I have extra water around the apartment. Since I’m used to hosting dogs, I’m good at “cat proofing” the apartment and my unit has a good layout to separate the cats and the visiting pet if needed. I choose how to take out any dog based on their personality: dog walk at my apartment building, walks, local dog park, hikes, etc. I also have plenty of dog toys.

About: I love animals and can connect with dogs and cats of different temperaments. My main experience is with cats: feeding, litter box care, socialization, and play. I also have practical dog experience walking dogs belonging to my sister and my friends and staying with them for some periods - no issues, the dogs were friendly and well-behaved. I am adaptable to various temperaments, closely follow owners’ instructions on routine and care, and prioritise safety and the pet’s well-being. I work only with healthy, routine animals and do not provide medical care. I’m available for cats and dogs care with flexible scheduling. I can do drop-in visits on weekdays and weekends, including mornings and evenings. I’m consistent with routines and can do 1–2 visits per day depending on your needs. I also accept occasional cat and dog boarding in my home when my schedule allows. Message me with your preferred times and your pet’s routine. I follow your instructions carefully for feeding, fresh water, walking, litter box care, and playtime. I’m calm with shy pets and respect their boundaries. I keep keys secure, double-check doors and windows, and send photo updates after each visit. For boarding, I provide a quiet, clean space with a dedicated litter area and regular updates to keep you informed.

“I’m so glad I found Daniela! You can tell that she is very kind, good natured and really cares for dogs. It was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous, but it worked out perfectly! She was very reassuring and communicated with me throughout Priss’ stay.”

“My pup likes Evelyn more than me!!”

Andrew B.

“Sena has been great to work with, and his Corgi, Zuko, is the perfect playmate for my dog!”

Josh F.

“She made Annie feel right at home and she was excited to go the next time. Well definitely consider Mary Molly the next time we need daycare!”

Manon F.

“Adrian was so great! I needed a last-minute sitter for a couple days and she was able to take care of my boy no problem. I got a lot of updates and pictures on what ghibli was up to, and he got tons of exercise and got along well with her dog. She even accommodated me when I was running a little behind and had to pick Ghibli up a little later than usual. Highly recommended !”

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember—they’ve always been part of my life. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to more laid-back or shy dogs. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, and everyday care, and I really enjoy spending time with them. Friends and family trust me to look after their pets because they know I’m reliable and genuinely care. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day. I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, or just keeping them company and making sure they’re not alone. I live in a pet-friendly 2 bed, 2 bath apartment with a spacious and bright living area where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. There’s a greenway right downstairs and Dix Park nearby, which makes it very convenient for safe and enjoyable walks. I always keep a clean, calm environment and pay close attention to each pet’s needs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Julie was so sweet and caring to not only Lily but me as well. She’s really great with communication, sending multiple updates throughout the day and answering very quickly. I know Lily was well taken care of. Thank you Julie :)”

“What a great experience with Martine and her husband. They obviously made Bryce feel welcomed in their home … as by the second day he went straight to her front door and didn’t look back while I was leaving. Also want to “shout out” her willingness to be a bit flexible with the schedule … (I was meeting a friend locally and wanted to be able to enjoy Raleigh for dinner (which was awesome at The Plate). This pet sitting experience enhanced my visit to Raleigh !!!”

“Karissa and Robert took such great care of Sherman for his first week at day care. He enjoyed his time so much and they made his new environment so comforting and easy. Thank you both so much, can’t wait for Sherman to go back to have a great time again this week.”
