Doggy Day Care in Colfax

“Just like before, Jenna and Shane took great care of Gus. They were very accommodating for us on a last minute booking. He was happy when we picked him up and seemed like he played all day with their pups. We will continue to book them for future stays!”

About: We absolutely love spending time outdoors with dogs. Every weekend, we set out to discover a new dog park or walking trail where they can run, play, and enjoy nature. It’s our favorite way to combine fresh air, exercise, and happy wagging tails! I have plenty of time to dedicate to the dogs because I work from home, which allows me to be with them throughout the day. I make sure they get enough attention, playtime, and walks. My husband is also home every evening after work, so the dogs are never left alone for long periods. On weekends, we love spending quality time together at home, relaxing, playing in the dog park, or going for long walks as a family. It’s important to us that the dogs always feel included and cared for. We often go for walks with our dog, who really enjoys both the walks and the cuddles. Having a dog has brought so much joy to our daily life, and we love spending time outdoors with him as much as we enjoy relaxing at home."

About: ⸻ Welcome to Mini Stays of North Carolina — where your furry family member gets VIP treatment every single day. As a dedicated dog lover and full-time dog mom, I know exactly how important it is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. At our cozy Winston-Salem setup, we offer limited, private suites so every dog gets real attention — not a warehouse full of barking chaos. Each suite includes soft bedding, fresh water, and a secure, comfortable crate for dogs who prefer their own space. Your pet won’t just be watched… they’ll be looked after. We keep things personal here. That means one-on-one care, customized routines, and outings tailored to your dog’s energy and personality. Whether it’s a chill nature walk, a ball-throw marathon, or a quiet day inside snuggled up, your dog’s day is built around what makes them happiest. And yes — you’ll get plenty of photos and updates so you never feel disconnected. We follow your dog’s schedule — early mornings, late nights, special diets, meds — whatever they need to stay comfortable and confident. We even plan dog-friendly holiday activities and enrichment days to keep tails moving and moods high. Book a meet-and-greet so we can learn what makes your dog unique and create the perfect stay for them. Mini Stays of North Carolina is where comfort, safety, and real love come together… and where your dog’s stay truly feels like a vacation. Pet care is literally built into my daily lifestyle as a full-time dog mom. I’m up around 8:00 AM, and from that moment on, my day revolves around keeping every pet in my home happy, safe, and engaged. That includes feeding, exercise, structured playtime, grooming needs, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I make sure each dog gets what they need—whether that’s walks, training touch-ups, mental stimulation, or just being held and cuddled. I also plan regular outings like park trips and dog-friendly adventures to keep them stimulated and social. Caring for pets isn’t a side gig for me—it’s part of my daily rhythm and something I genuinely love. Your dog fits right into that routine and gets treated like family from the moment they arrive. In my home: • I maintain a clean, pet-safe space with secure rooms, gates, and supervised access at all times. • Dogs are never left unattended around food, doors, or other pets. • I follow your dog’s feeding, potty, and sleep schedule so their routine stays familiar. • All outside time is leashed or in a controlled area, and I monitor every moment. • Crates/suites are available for dogs who prefer their own comfort space. In your home: • I respect your space and follow your instructions exactly as given. • Your dog’s normal routine is maintained to reduce stress. • I double-check all doors, gates, and safety items before leaving. • I send regular photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet as if they’re my own, with patience, structure, and the kind of attention that builds trust and keeps them safe. My goal is always the same: a calm environment, a happy dog, and total peace of mind for you.

About: With over 14 years of experience caring for dogs—whether my own or those of friends, family, and neighbors—I’ve developed a deep love and understanding for pets of all ages and personalities. From energetic puppies learning their first commands to senior dogs needing medication and extra TLC, I tailor each visit to meet your pet’s unique needs. While dogs are my specialty, I also care for cats and other animals—each with the same level of love and attention. I love cuddles and giving your pet the amount of love they deserve every visit! As a professional photographer, I also love capturing your pet’s personality through my lens. Every first-time booking (that is 3+ nights and more than 4 drop in visits) includes a complimentary professional photo of your pet as a special keepsake—because they deserve the spotlight, too! I’m here to provide peace of mind, reliable care, and a little extra joy for both you and your furry (or scaly!) friend. I am a photographer and stay-at-home-mom so I have plenty of time to walk, feed, and spend time with your baby! Most days I am available between 8:15 AM - 2 PM, and then again from 3:30-7 PM. Please reach out if you have a different time needed and we can chat! Sometimes I do have to bring my 6 year old along for drop in visits so please consider that when booking. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I have a fully fenced yard that provides a safe space for them to run and play. I'm happy to crate them if needed, take them on walks, and even sleep in the same room to help them feel secure. I spend all my free time with the pets in my care, making sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well-loved. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them with the same respect, patience, and affection I give my own animals.

“Tom took great care of our fur baby. He was quick to send pictures and keep me updated. I would 100% recommend him and will definitely use him again.”

About: I've taken care of friends, neighbors, family's pets since I was 10 years old. I absolutely adore the innocence of animals and the fun and joy they bring into our lives. It would be my pleasure to spoil yours while you are away! I'm currently a full time mom to my little girl, and my husband also works at home. We will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and ensure they are well taken care of while with us. We love going on neighborhood walks and have a large fenced in backyard that our dog loves to play in. He thinks it would be even better with a playmate! In the evenings, my husband really enjoys working with ours to ensure he is top notch with all his tricks. We crate trained him as a pup, so would have no problem keeping yours in a crate while staying in our home, if that is what your pet is used to.

“Sarah was so great with our pup and schedule. We contacted her with late notice and she was so accommodating! Aspen even came home sleepy, which is not an easy feat! We’ll definitely book with her again if we’re in town”

About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I've raised them from playful puppies to loyal seniors, so I understand what each stage of life requires. I've always been surrounded by dogs and have looked after pets for friends and family over the years. I know how important it is to give them comfort, consistency, and love while their owners are away, and I treat every dog as if they were my own!🩷Belly rubs included of course!☺️ I am currently a full time online student so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your furry, loving friend whenever needed. I can perfectly fit them into my routine and adjust as necessary!☺️ Although I don't have a fenced yard, my neighborhood is big with lots of green space to take walks and play. While inside the house, they are free to roam around and cuddle or be crated if needed. If your pup is staying the night, I can ensure they will be comfortable all night long and will be well taken care of.🫶🏻

“Meghan was awesome! My puppy was well cared for and got all of her energy out during the day. Meghan was also very responsive and sent updates and pictures throughout the day.”

Tyler D.

“We really like Danielle! Our dogs have stayed with her several times now, and every visit just gets better. Marshmallow has always been a little on the timid side, but she’s been so much less scared and noticeably more comfortable with Danielle than she ever was at her old sitter’s house. It’s such a relief knowing our pups are happy and relaxed. We couldn’t recommend her enough! 🐾💛”

“Erik was wonderful! Super flexible on pickup and drop off. Squini had a ball with Dog and Kira and came home super happy. Erik even gave Squini an exit bath because they had such a good time in the yard :)”
