Doggy Day Care in Decatur

About: Growing up in the country we had horses, cats, dogs, hamsters, rats… I always knew I wanted to work with animals, specifically pets. I’m thrilled to have the time and opportunity to fulfill that dream and watch as my children develop their own love for animals. I have been raising puppies for years and have been blessed to learn much of my training methods from a gifted service and therapy dog trainer from Bergin University. I do not offer professional training as a service but am happy to work with pets as I am able. Since I am a stay at home mom my availability is very flexible! We down a lot of time at home 🏡 My kids will not allow an animal in our home to get lonely and are always enthusiastic to meet new animal friends! We’re conscious of animal body language, respect animals’ signals & practice good manners. I am a breeder so when I have females in season I cannot have intact males on site. This is only for a short period a couple times/year I have a fenced in yard with my own dogs (2 Goldens, and a Cavalier…and a 🐢) our basement has a dog door. The basement has a separate area as well if for any reason your pet should need to be separated. I have plenty of crate space and crates of various sizes as well if your dog prefers or needs to be crated.

About: I have been a pet owner most of my life, dogs, cats, fish, and more. I have many friends that have trusted me to take care of their pets. I love spoiling animals. If you met my baby, you would know how spoiled she is. I do work 3 to 4 days a week however I will make sure your pets are very well taken care of. You can reach out at any time to see how they are doing. I have a dog and two cats. I currently live in an apartment so I would most likely come to you. I have taken care of a dog at my apartment and when I took him out I took out on a lease.

“Absolutely fantastic! This was our first time hiring a sitter for our pooch and Ally made the process smooth and comfortable. Her home and family is super pet friendly and they have a genuine love for animals. We will definitely book with Ally again!!!”

About: I've been dog sitting since I was a teen. I love dogs, my Hans is my first Baby. I run about 4 miles a day. And I walk with my daughter, Adelaj who loves dogs, about 2 times a day. Safe area, plenty of room to run and play. Your fur baby will spend all day with me, my little girl, and our 4 year old, ultra sweet border collie, Hans. If needed, we have a dog crate for sleeping in, but your dog is welcome to sleep in whatever arrangement he or she is used to. I prefer to host dogs at my home, but I can come to you too, so long as it's not too far away. I hope to see you soon!

About: I’ve had many cats and dogs over the years. My Chocolate Lab, Holly, was 16 years old when she passed away a few years ago. I raised her from a puppy all the way through her senior years. I’ve recently retired so my schedule is fully open to for pet sitting. I am looking forward to having some cats and dogs in the house again. I have a fenced in backyard. Half of the yard is concrete pad with a covered pool, and the other half is grass. I also have a gazebo that gives a good amount of shade for animals to relax under.

About: I have had dogs since I was 10 and have done a lot of volunteer work at shelters. I love pets and am a consistant teacher I am not currently working outside the home so can put my immediate attention to your pets. I am very flexable as to days and times: Your home or mine. I do have a fenced in yard and my dog loves company outside or inside. I dont mind working on training. I do not mind crated animals.

“Harriet is an amazing pet sitter! She was kind, responsible, and clearly loves animals. Our puppy was happy and relaxed when we got home. She kept me updated and followed all instructions perfectly. I’d definitely trust her again! Thank you.”

About: Dogs, cats and horses have been a passion of mine my whole life. I use all kinds of animals to help stressed out and traumatized kids. I've been called on time and time again to rescue pets in need. My pets are all well cared for, and I treat others' pets as if they were my own. I live on a 3 acre lot with a large fenced in yard. I have a doggy door so dogs can choose to come and go as they please. My dogs are friendly and easy going around other pets. We love to go to the dog park as well as go on walks every day! It would be an honor to care for your pet! Most of the time, I'm either home or close to home. Much of my work us at my home. The parts of my job that are away from the house come in short segments and rarely longer than 3 hours at a time. My dogs like to run errands with me whenever it's safe and possible. Your pet would be welcome to join us if he/she wants. I have a large fenced in yard and a 3 acre horse pasture around our house. Right now I have 2 older dogs and another dog a little less than a year. They are great with other pets. They would live to keep your fur baby company, or, if you prefer it, I can keep him/her in a crate. My dogs sit on the furniture and sleep with me if they want. Your pet would be welcome to make himself at home. I work a lot from home, and a few hours away from home so I have plenty of time to love and care for your fur baby! I strive to follow the wishes of the owner. I have enough experience to know that the dogs are relaxed when we are relaxed, so we keep things pretty chill around the house. I will accompany your dog outside to be sure he/she is safe.

About: My 7-year old Aussie, Romeo, was my pride and joy and I understand how much it means to have someone care for your baby the way you would! I have had dogs and cats my whole life so I have plenty of experience with them as well as dog sitting experience for many years. My first Christmas without my Romeo I was so nervous to leave him with someone I didn't know but I knew there was no way I could leave him at some kennel no matter how good the ratings. That's when I found Rover and the most wonderful dog sitter for him! My comfort and relief in knowing that he was going to be comfortable and cared for in someone's home while I was gone meant the world to me. That's why I decided to join Rover, to help comfort someone else in my situation! I promise to give your babies as much love and affection as they can handle! We now have a Heeler, 3 kitties, and 2 human babies. 😋 ****************************************************************** Because I have small children, I do ask that we do a meet & greet before booking any new clients. I want to be sure that everyone feels safe and comfortable! ****************************************************************** If you are looking for care for your puppy (under 1 year) or for an XL dog (>100lbs), please contact me! I have in my details that I do not accept these dogs as a general rule, but I can accept either on a case-by-case basis. (Is the pup house trained? Is the big dog high energy or mellow? Etc.) I am happy to answer any questions or concerns that you might have, feel free to contact me! I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I am currently a full-time stay at home mom so I have lots of time to love on your babies and allow them as many breaks as they need :) We do not have a fenced yard, but we do get outside a lot! I will happily take your pup out for potty breaks on a leash as often as they need, and they will get two walks per day (unless you have instructed otherwise) We have a dog that loves to play, but he's definitely capable of giving space to dogs who need it. My goal is to make sure your baby is completely comfortable and happy!

“Angel and his mother did a great job looking after our dog. On the second day, she ran into their house with her tail wagging so our dog sure loved them! They are super responsive to messages and very accommodating.”

About: I have taken care of big, medium and small dogs! Breeds like: Pitt bulls, chihuahuas, german Shepards, Huskies, Pomeranian, Labs, Cane Corsos. Family and friends can trust me with their pets. I am available Monday - Saturday any times. I am very organized and responsible. I do not work so I will have a lot of free time. I have one friendly dog! 90 lbs. He plays fetch outside with us and hangs around in the garage. We have a small and XL crate that we use for him when company is here but they are mainly put up and easy to take out. I allow dogs anywhere in our home except for my son’s room since he has small toys there. They are free to get on the couch or lay wherever they like. We live right by a trail that is 2 miles and I am able to provide walks for dogs that are in daycare.

About: I was always that kid that would bring home any stray. I’m home during the day so I can give your pet lots of attention. I don’t work outside the home so I have plenty of time to give your pet lots of attention. I have a Labradoodle that could play with your pup. I have a fenced in yard where they can play outside safely. If your dog needs to be created, I have a crate available to use

“Lauren was an awesome sitter. It was clear that Tru had an awesome time with her and her dog, Orla. I really appreciated the photo and video updates she sent during the day care.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, this started my love for all animals. There’s no animal I wouldn’t be excited to meet! I have 6 myself ( 2 dogs, 1 cat, 2 rabbits, 1 bearded dragon ). I do not work so I will be able to keep a constant eye on your babies. I can let them outside multiple times a day to potty/play. I’m very respectful of the owners rules for their pets. I only give them the food/treats their owner provided and I keep a close eye on them the whole time.

“Our shy girl Shady will be back for our next trip away. Lots of photos that we loved to have for peace of mind and a great meet and greet before and review after. Thank you Elsy.”
