Doggy Day Care in Columbia

“Haley, I thank you and your family for welcoming Molly for a safe, fun day while I was away! Haley’s home doggie daycare was a wonderful experience for my dog. Haley provides a comfortable home environment, a great backyard, lots of playtime and interaction with other dogs and members of her family. Thanks again!”

“Alicen is the best gift for my dog. In the past, my dog has not had good experiences with some dogs but Alicen knows how to introduce dogs and also bring a calm confidence to the environment. I am so grateful to have found her. My pup came home happy and calm too.”

“Due to a medical emergency, I had only 12 hours to schedule a first time visit. Donna was very understanding and affordable. I wasn't impressed by the neighborhood-until I saw her spacious yard. My beagle played the day away and slept the whole evening. Would happily use again.”

“Fawn absolutely LOVES going to Christine's. Her dog, Daisy and Fawn are good buddies. A big plus s that Christine plays with Fawn. Fawn loves balls and Christine mixes up the variety of balls. I swear, when Fawn goes inn Christine's house and finds all the toys she has set up for the day's play, Fawn turns back and looks at me with the biggest, wide eyes and SMILE, I have ever seen on a dog. I recommend Christine if you are looking for a great care giver for your little dog.”

“My dog has been getting daycare services with Ximena for about 3 weeks now and I couldn't be happier. Ximena is literally the most lovely and kind person I have ever met. She treats my dog as if she's one of her own. Ximena and her family are truly lovely people who genuinely love dogs. They always go above and beyond during my dogs visits, take tons of photos and give consistent updates. They cater to my dog and take such good care of her. I'm so happy that I found Ximena and I have no plans of ever taking her anywhere else.”

“Caleb accepted our last minute booking and was very accommodating. We had a really early drop off and a late pickup and they had no issue with that. Curry had a great time with their family. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs daycare services!”

Krizia A.

“Louie gets so excited to go to Catlyn's and play all day. He is tired when I pick him up and they say a tired dog is a happy dog. Thanks Catlyn!”

Kristine S.

“Great experience and Hailey seemed very happy!”

About: My home is a dog lover's dream — two friendly dogs already live here and are always ready to make new friends. We have a fully fenced backyard, loads of indestructible toys (thanks, BarkBox!), and an open-door policy between inside and out, so your pup can roam, play, and lounge whenever they please. I work from home full-time, which means your dog is never left alone — I'm always here. Dogs are welcome on the furniture, in the bed, wherever they're happiest. This is their vacation too. Whether your dog needs a playmate, a cozy couch to nap on, or both, they'll feel right at home. Pet care is genuinely woven into my day, not something I have to carve out time for. Since I work from home full-time, I'm always present — whether that's taking a mid-morning break to play in the backyard, keeping an eye on the pack while I'm at my desk, or just being available if anyone needs a cuddle or a quick romp outside. My own two dogs set the rhythm of the day — morning energy bursts, afternoon lounging, outdoor time whenever the mood strikes. Guest dogs just fold right into that routine. There's always someone to play with, always a sunny spot to nap in, and always a human nearby. My home is set up to be as dog-friendly as possible. The backyard is fully fenced, so dogs have safe, free access to outdoor space all day long — no leash required for backyard time. Inside, they're treated like family: furniture is fair game, the bed is open, and there are plenty of indestructible toys to keep them entertained. With two resident dogs already in the mix, guest dogs are never bored or lonely. There's always a playmate available, and I'm always nearby since I work from home full-time. I keep a close eye on group dynamics to make sure everyone is comfortable and playing nicely. I aim to keep routines as close to what your dog is used to as possible — feeding schedules, rest time, outdoor play — so the transition feels easy and low-stress for them. My goal is simple: your dog goes home happy, tired, and already looking forward to their next visit.

About: My family has had cats ever since I was 12, I also rescued a goldendoodle 8 years ago and he has been my best friend ever since. I love all types of animals, and have experience with rabbits, horses, guinea pigs, and hamsters as well. I have been pet sitting and dog walking as a vet student for over a year now. I am a veterinary student in my clinical rotation years. I live in a duplex, meaning I have my own house with no roommates. It is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath. I can pet sit from your house if you have multiple pets and are gone for days or pet sit from my own place if you have just a cat or a smaller dog. I live in a duplex at the moment by myself without any pets, but I pet sit for friends a lot, driving over to their places to let the dogs out/walk them, feed the cats/dogs/fish and clean the litter boxes, make sure the water bowls are filled, etc.

“My dog went to doggy daycare at Kaila’s house & had a great time playing with her dog. She was easy to communicate with.”

About: I love all animals, but most especially dogs. We had a Springer Spaniel named Tucker for nearly 15 years. I can give your fur baby a safe, loving, clean home while you are away. I can administer oral medications if needed. I provide companionship all day as I work from home, We have lots of experience with high energy dogs but also love calm temperaments as well. I have trained my own dogs throughout the years and I'm open to any schedules or training techniques you would like to continue while you are away. Dog must be goo with children, non-reactive, and potty trained. If you think we will be a good fit please reach out! I'm happy to answer any questions and look forward to hearing from you. I work full time from home as an Audiologist doing telehealth, Monday through Friday 8:00-4:30. I have several breaks and a lunch during the day for walks or playing in the backyard. We are a family with small children who will be in the home. Schedule would vary based on day of week or weekend stay, I offer a safe, loving environment for your fur baby. We have a very large, fenced backyard for exercise. If your dog likes to be crated, I have a large crate, so you don't have to bring yours for extended stays if your pet is comfortable with that. We have no pets of our own, so your dog will get all the cuddles and love during their stay. If you would like to schedule a meet and greet please let me know! If you have any questions that are not listed here please reach out!

“My first experience with Rover was supposed to be with a veteran wife and mother of two. Instead it was with a man in a house with blacked out windows and probably a healthy dose of Benadryl for my dog. Mercifully my second experience was with Elliot and was absolutely perfect! He invited me into his home, introduced me to his partner and sent me daily updates with photos. I didn’t even know this was an option! I will absolutely recommend him to everyone and use his services again. I can’t thank you enough for taking care of my dog!”

Laura C.

“Alexis is always flexible and has helped me out last minute multiple times. She is very nice and has a calm demeanor. Her dog Scout is very friendly and energetic and gets my dog to play, which, as a single doggo child, is really needed!”

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, so caring for dogs, cats, and other pets has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, I’ve raised and trained dogs from puppyhood to their senior years, and I understand the different needs at every stage. What sets me apart is the blend of lifelong experience, patience, and genuine love for animals. I know how to handle high-energy pups who need extra playtime, provide gentle care for senior pets, and create a safe, comfortable environment for every dog in between. With two friendly dogs of my own, a Vizsla and a Wirehaired Griffon, your pup will have both human and canine companionship during their stay. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be home often, which means I can check in on your pup or cat throughout the day and give them plenty of attention. I'll make sure your pets have companionship, consistency, and comfort while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, rest, and feel at ease. With two friendly dogs and a Persian cat, your pet will have companionship, but I also know how to manage introductions and keep everyone safe and comfortable. We also have the ability to keep our pets on a separate floor of the home.

About: Hey there! I have been working as a veterinary technician for 10+ years and have reduced to part-time since I started working towards my doctorate in veterinary medicine. As I work towards my degree, I look forward to spending my free time taking care of some new furry faces! As I have mentioned, I have numerous years of experience professionally working with and caring for a variety of animals (dogs, cats, pocket pets and birds). I am comfortable administering medications, including subcutaneous medications (such as insulin and fluids). I have a lot of experience caring for a range of breeds, stages of life and temperaments of cats and dogs alike to understand their individual needs. I am also Pet CPR & First Aid certified. Please let me know how I can help! I am always open to questions and to scheduling a Meet & Greet so that I can meet you and your lovely fur children prior to any stay/visit! :) I am currently in school and only working part-time, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I have more availability on the weekends, but can definitely offer services during the week as needed! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs at home that enjoy playing with other dogs at daycare. If staying at your home, I’ll follow any instructions you may have to keep up with your pets daily routine to make the adjust for them seamless while you’re away!
