Doggy Day Care in Columbia Heights

“Lincoln had such a great time with Nathan and his family. He came home very tired and slept the rest of the evening. He went for a walk and played with the kids. As a young dog it was great exposure for him. I would definitely take him back next time I need a sitter. Thanks Nathan.”

“Eddie had a wonderful time at Pam's house. He loves to play and with seconds of meeting each other, he was playing with Pam's dog. He had a very full day, we appreciated receiving pictures and videos throughout the day. This was our fiest experience with day care, and Pam and her family were wonderful!”

“Korina was so patient with my shy puppy and handled multiple accidents with great understanding. I received videos and pictures through the day and felt very comfortable with my dog being at Korina’s house.”

“Emily was great with Astrid from the moment she greated us outside. She kept me up to date on the fun Astrid was having with the other dogs with videos and photos. Great communication throughout the day, and Astrid definitely got to use up some energy. Wonderful experience, would definitely rebook services again in the future.”

About: Pets are like family to me. I will make sure that your pet is safe, loved, and has fun while you are away. They may even learn a new trick or two! I love cats and will provide a discounted rate for anyone who needs to board their cat with me! I currently work from home so I can spend all day with your fur baby. Since I do work from home, I can give your pet lots of walks and play time but they must be able to handle being alone when I am in a meeting. I can accept boardings for cats and dogs between 9am and 6pm. Same day bookings are only available for previous clients. I have a dog park within 3 minutes of my home. Your dog will enjoy playing there everyday. I also have a cat that loves other animals! I have lots of entertainment for a cat as well so they won’t be bored!

“Good communication, easy drop off, and very thankful for the flexibility! My dog, Ebo, was well taken care of and enjoyed his days there”

About: My family has always had pets, and we will be sure to treat your baby with the same love and care we give our own! I currently have 3 small senior dogs with my Husband, all of which we have owned since before we were married. They get along well with other dogs their size so if your baby is social they would love to meet our Jojo, Ryder, and Cocoa. Apart from the 3 dogs I currently owned, I was heavily involved in raising my 2 now passed childhood dogs from puppies to seniors, and have experienced with everything from puppy potty training to senior care, behavior management and more. I work from home most days and will be able to keep a good eye on your pet throughout the day. My Husband also works from home often, so most of the time if I have to personally step out, there will still be an adult in the house. On the off chance no one is home, we shall be sure to crate your baby (as we do with our own) while we are gone for no more than 4-5 hours at most. If your pet must be supervised we will make sure to arrange out plans to accommodate their needs We have baby gates at both stairways to ensure our pets don't wander off into mischief. If your pet has mobility issues, fear not as we will happily carry them up and down the stairs to have their time outside. We have a nice large, fully fenced backyard for your pet to roam and play in (supervised of course). Pets are allowed on furniture in our house and we have multiple dog beds and blankets for your pet to snuggle up in around the house. If I need to leave the house for any reason, I also have installed 2 pet cameras to check on them while I am out. Though I take up to 2 dogs at a time, I only book one household at a time, so your pets will only be interacting my own pets during their stay. I also typically propose a meet up beforehand to make sure our pets and yours get along before their stay

About: I’ve taken care of many different pets my whole life, I grew up with many different pets in my family. I currently have a well trained pet of my own, my friends and family come to me when they are in need of a sitter. I’m currently a part time college student, so I only go to class on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, with my remaining time out of school, I have plenty of time to play and hangout with pets! I do not have a fully fenced yard but I do have a gated area on the side of my house. The gated area is big enough for dogs to run and play! I also have a small dog of my own to keep other dogs entertained!

About: I love taking care of these little ones at my home, they are like family to me, they are loved and well taken care of. For as long as I can remember, I have always been surrounded by animals and I have loved them. My grandmother was a great influence in teaching me to love them, take care of them and interpret their body language. I started taking care of pets in elementary school; when our neighbors went on vacation, I took care of their cat and their fish. As a child, I have had many beloved pets, including cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, parakeets, lizards, hamsters and a mouse. Currently, I have a cat that used to be wild called Ociris that appears with me in the profile photo Dog walks, Daily visits, Bathroom breaks, Overnight pet care, 24-hour care , Dog parks, excursions, Pet taxi, Kitten care, and Weekly pet care for travel.

About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life. We had 2 dogs and 2 cats when I was growing up. I've been walking dogs since I was little. And I know all the dogs in my neighborhood on a first name basis. I work from home and generally have plenty of time throughout the day for walks and cuddles. I do go into the office once a week, usually on Wednesdays. I have a big backyard that's mostly fenced in (each of my surrounding neighbors have fences). There's plenty of room throughout my entire house for your little baby to make themselves at home

“A+. Gold Stars. Amazing! Leslie was a perfect fit for watching our dog. We were fairly new to Rover and Leslie helped calm our nerves by arranging a meet and greet, sharing photos during the stay, and keeping our dog entertained - she was so tired when we brought her home. If you're new to Rover or a super protective dog mom (like me), I highly recommend contacting and booking with Leslie. I cannot highlight enough the positive experience we had with her.”

“Jayne did a great job watching our 4 month old puppy, who can be a bit of a handful! She was easy to communicate with and very professional. Would definitely recommend her!”

About: I'm a theatre teacher and dog lover and with school out for the summer, I have some extra time and energy to spend it keeping your furry family member happy, safe, and loved while you're away! As an educator, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility to pet care. Whether it’s energetic walks, relaxing cuddle time, or sticking to special routines, I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique personality and needs. You can count on me for: 🎭 Daily walks, playtime, and enrichment 🐾 Drop-ins, house sitting, or overnight care 🦴 Feeding, meds, and updates with adorable photos 🏠 Respectful, tidy care of your home during visits I co-parent a sweet rescue Pitanese named Atlas, but he will not be present in my home when your dog(s) come to stay. I will only care for one dog family in my home at a time (up to 2 dogs.) As a devoted dog parent, I know how important it is to trust someone with your family member(s), and I’d be honored to provide a reliable, loving presence while you’re away. Let’s connect—I can’t wait to meet your furry family! I will be off from my teaching job throughout much of the summer, so will have a very flexible schedule to spend with your pet(s)! I live in the bottom unit of a duplex home and have full access to a fully fenced in yard. My upstairs neighbor has a dog, but doesn't use the yard with his dog and exits through a separate entrance. I'm a gardener, so your dog will always be supervised while playing in the yard. We live near trails and a park, so there is plenty of opportunity for enrichment on walks as well. I allow my dog on the sofa, but if this is not a habit you want your dog to pick up, I will follow those instructions. I have past experience giving oral medication, caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs in recovery from an injury.

About: I live in a house with fenced yard. There is plenty of room for dogs and people to run around. I have had my GSD since he was 8 weeks old. Now he is 8.5 yrs old (11/22). I also have a Frenchie which is owned by my gf. We all live together as one happy family. Both of our dogs get along with others, they have multiple social interactions (dog parks, lake walks, breweries, dog meetups… ). They like other dogs as well. We have no other pets , we do have random squirrels who randomly say hi through the window and get out kids excited 😆. I work from home and also get help from my girlfriend. I am home most of the day and will hang out with them. I am also free on most weekends. I have fenced in yard and large rooms/play areas they can hang out. They are allowed to go anywhere in the house, if they well behaved and don’t snore they are even allowed to sleep on the bed.

“My 4-year-old anxious baby had a peaceful and relaxing time with Taylor! She is not only professional but genuinely warm and friendly. Her understanding of dog behaviors is also exceptional. I highly recommend her, and we hope to see her regularly. Thanks, Taylor!”
