Doggy Day Care in Detroit Shoreway, Cleveland, OH

“Monica sand her family did such a great job of taking care of my puppy. I have never boarded her before and felt so comfortable knowing she was in a loving home instead of locked in a cage at a kennel.”

Services description: 1) Pet sitting at the client’s home: I stay at your home full time at night and most of the day (with the exception of a couple departures if any, but never more than 3 hours). I don’t raid your fridge or bar and treat your home with respect. I walk, play, feed, clean up after your pets. We cuddle and sleep together at night and they get lots of love. I leave the house exactly the way you left it, no surprises:) I provide uninterrupted routine for your babies and treat them like my own. You find your pets happy and relaxed. Up to 3 walks 20-30 min each a day are included. 2) House drop ins: I feel this service is more for cats who don’t need to be walked. I come in, clean up any accidents, feed the pet, administer medication if needed, play, give cuddles and make sure I leave water bowl full. 3) Pet walk: I come in, take the pet out for a walk. We work on our manners, leash training, etc. For the high energy pups we can jog together. For high energy dogs I suggest upgrading to 50 min. I try to improve dog training every time we hang out together and build on what we learned. I leave with water bowl full unless instructed otherwise. If dog needs to be crated, I can also do that before leaving. 4) Boarding: I own a 3 level home and your fur baby would reside on the living room/kitchen floor. It has front door entrance, covered patio, plenty of cozy room to roam around, access to water bowl and food bowls during feeding time. If your pet is dog friendly, I will introduce my cute dogs (Mini Bernedoodle and mini Dachshund) to him so they play. If not - no worries, my dogs will be kept in a different living level with another exit door, so they don’t trouble each other. I have a fully fenced in yard (with no escape cracks even for smallest dogs) and provide walks/potty breaks every 2-3 hours. You are welcome to bring in anything you wish, and a crate if you want your dog crated at night, for example. If you prefer not to crate - during boarding I will be sleeping on the couch in the living room so they will be safe and are welcome to sleep with me. We treat them as family! See photos in the end of the gallery for pictures of where your fur baby will stay - example with our recent guest 8 month old Chandler whom my dogs adored. We have a cat who grew up around my dogs and is very dog friendly but usually minds her own business. My kids are 13 and 15 and very responsible and animal loving. I truly love animals of all kinds. Always had a pet in my family. Been responsibly taking care of dogs since I was 14 - my cocker spaniel, childhood dog whom I even was able to cut hair and groom:) All my dogs live/lived a very long life - 15-22 years. Through my life I have adopted German shepherd (when he was 8, and took care of him through severe hip dysplasia until he was 15 and vet recommended putting him to sleep), adopted Toy fox terrier at age 6 who was abused and bit me several times but I never abandoned him and he lived until 22 - last 4 years deaf, blind, but still was full of life and always wanted to cuddle. I saved and nursed a baby squirrel until it was grown enough to take to wild life center. I fed it kitten milk from a tiny bottle :) I raised a puppy who is now 3, and another who is now 1, so I have patience and experience with the little ones. I have extensive experience administering medicines to pets - shots, oral, etc. Taking care of seniors, dogs with double hernia, dogs with mobile difficulties (I can help their hind legs with a towel so they can walk), doggie diapers - you name it. I am not a little bit squirmish because I truly love animals and they love me back. With larger breeds I am very confident and can take care of the ones who are leash reactive or not very well trained. A bit about myself: moved here with my family from L.A. and proud home owner in Lakewood. Freelance fashion photographer since 2004. I used to ride horses and am very fit and strong. I run marathons and hike up mountains. I am thrilled to take your dogs out as much as they would like. I drive reliable hutch back car and can fit up to 2 large Shepherds in to run in the metropark should you have multiple large friends:) Oh, and when watching pets in your home I would absolutely love if they want to cuddle in bed with me:))) But won’t force them:)) Overall I raised also two kids, have a great family, and I am currently 45. I have been scaling down my work travels so I would love to help you when you need me. Hoping to get many repeat clients! Feel free to reach out with any questions! Freelance fashion photographer, I started dog care business as a passion project as I love pets and as an extra motivation to step away from laptop and get those hikes in. When not traveling for fashion shoots, I work on the laptop from home and my schedule is very flexible. I can adjust to the schedule you prefer, so it’s easiest on your pets and you. I have used Rover before for my own pets when traveling so I can anticipate what questions to ask. Ideally I would provide uninterrupted routine and lots of attention, exercise, cuddles and games.

About: I have a soft spot in my heart for rescues and special needs pets. I have two dogs, Darling (an 11 year old terrier mix with special needs) and August (a 2 year old very active service dog), and three rabbits, Nanny, Nobby, and Midna. I am experienced in administering medication, providing stimulation and play, caring for pets with special needs, caring for senior pets, maintaining service dog training, and exercising high-energy dogs. I’m active and love to be outdoors, and you can often find me on a hike or walk with a pup in tow! I’m also happy house sitting and just snuggling on the couch with pets of all kinds! I work a hybrid schedule and live on the near west side. Ready to care for your pet and give them love, attention, and exercise while you’re away from home! My schedule is flexible. I can come by to walk, play, feed, and exercise your pet as needed and keep them on a daily schedule. I’m available for overnights and house sitting as well.

About: I have a high-energy dog that has prepared me in all aspects of pet care! I am well-versed in on- and off-leash exercise and have plenty of ideas for indoor enrichment activities. Having raised my own dog from 6 weeks old, I’m familiar with all of the accidents that can happen when pets are home alone. I’ve also cared for elderly and medically-complex dogs. I work remotely during the school year and have summers off. My work is in pacific time, giving me plenty of time in the morning to take your pet on a walk, play outside, or just keep them company. Of course, when I’m off in the summer, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets! I am open to the safety, trust, and environment guidelines set by each pet owner. As the owner of a needy dog, I understand that each family has different preferences for keeping their home and pets safe!

“Malik provided doggy daycare for Max’s first visit with him. It was a short period so not much to speak of, but I would book with Malik again.”

“Sarah was amazing with my Boston Terrier, and her Frenchie Tobi was adorable and friendly. We dropped Sadie off for the day to visit the Rock Hall and she had a great day. Sarah’s home was very clean with an outdoor space for playing and potty breaks. I would absolutely use Sarah again for pet sitting and I highly recommend her!”

“Thanks Joe!!! You are just amazing with Reagan and so appreciate you. Ring able to take her on short notice. We trust you completely with our furry kids and home!”

About: Through years of dog training, fostering, volunteering, and working at a dog daycare, I have interacted with and handled hundreds of dogs in my life. I own Beegan K9, a dog care services company that emphasizes lower volume than other local competitors. My 4000 square-foot facility located at 2080 West 110th street serves as a dog daycare and boarding facility. We take a maximum of 4 boarding clients at a time. I am at my facility every weekday from 6am until 6pm. Throughout the morning I handle my daily facility intake and study dog training courses. In the afternoons, we run small, highly-supervised playgroups. Members of my community trust me to take care of their dogs and I take that responsibility very seriously. Before Beegan K9, I had house sat and fostered dogs for around seven years. I also have three dogs of my own. Working with dogs is an integral part of my life and I take their care very seriously.

“Maria was great! She was really friendly and our dog enjoyed his stay playing with her pups in the backyard. She sent pictures throughout the day also and kept us updated on our dog. Would highly recommend booking with her.”

“I am so happy that we found Katie to care for our two dogs, whether that’s a drop in visit or daycare. She has been willing to go the extra mile to work with us on using the ecollar for our dog, which is not something I would trust just anyone to do. I know my dogs had a blast being there for daycare, coming home happy & exhausted. She does a fantastic job caring for our crazy pups & communicating with us. I feel comfortable knowing she’s spending some time with them on my long work days. Highly recommend!!”

“Sage watched our elderly family dog while we were in Cleveland managing numerous appointments at the Cleveland clinic. She created a comfortable space for our 18 year old dog, sent lots of cute pictures and seemed to really care about her well being. Sage was extra flexible with our changing schedule, and it was a comfort to know that Maggie was being well taken care of during our stressful time. She is compassionate, reliable, and easy to get a hold of. When we are back in Cleveland we hope to have her watch Maggie again. I’d recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have taken care of my friends dogs for a few years including walking, feeding, and playing. My dog is very friendly and would love to befriend your dog! I work from home so I would be available all day with your dog and mine I am available for boarding on weekdays early morning until about 7pm depending on the day and your needs too. I typically feed and walk my dog twice a day and she gets an extra walk during lunch time. I set aside play time twice a day too and my dog has a bin of toys she can share! My dog is very friendly and would love the company. If you need to bring a crate for your dog that is fine too. Let me know what you’re needing!

About: I’ve been obsessed with dogs as long as I could remember. My college graduation gift to myself was my princess, Effie a cane corso. Now that she’s gone, I have to send my love somewhere else! Giant breeds have always been my love, but my 4lb yorkie holds place in my heart too. I worked at doggy daycare previously and volunteered at the APL for about a year. If I could save all the dogs I would. It’s what I’m doing this side gig for, to buy a house with property so I can rescue another dog. I’ve housesat and dogsat for all my friends and family since I was 16. No furbaby goes unloved just because you need to leave the house. This is what I’m great at. I work remotely from my laptop so I can go wherever you need me as long as wifi can be provided. Then I can love your pet all day long while answering emails. If you want me to board your pup that works too. Meet & greets include dog-to-dog introductions and supervised play in our backyard. Owners can observe from our office overlooking the yard, which helps keep the dogs relaxed—especially our human-selective pup. I have experience walking my own 120lb mastiff. She has pretty good leash manners however when that stray cat comes by, rest assured I can hold her back. Therefore you know I can handle most dogs. I also have worked with many different kind of crates so if a dog needs to be put back when I leave your home I am able to do that. I also am very good at following instructions if any medicine is needed to be given. Following pet parent instructions was pertinent when I worked with the doggy daycare as some pets stayed over while parents were out of town.

“Abby is the best! Mickey loved his stay and feels right at home. Abby is warm and caring and treats Mickey like he is her own. She sent pictures and provided updates. Mickey especially likes playtime in the yard. Abby is fantastic and we will definitely use her again.”

About: After house/dog sitting for a few years now, I’m equipped to care any kind of dog! I am responsible, reliable and experienced in dog care. I’m a pediatric speech-language pathologist who is currently looking to care for pets around the Cleveland area🩷 My work schedule is 9-5 during the week, however my weekends are completely open! I’m very active and I love spending time outside. I live in an apartment in Battery Park, right across the street from Edgewater Beach. I’d love to take dogs out for walks around the park. I do my best to make sure the dogs I watch feel comfortable and build trusting relationships.

About: Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, senior pets, and small or exotic animals, and I adapt care to each pet’s unique needs and routine. I’m happy to assist with medications, mobility support, special diets, and extra care for seniors. While I don’t offer training, I do reinforce existing routines and prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency at all times. • Lifelong experience with many types of animals • Senior pet care & special needs support • Medication administration (as instructed) • Calm, patient, and reliable care • Follows detailed routines and instructions I have a very flexible schedule and prioritize providing attentive, reliable care. I bartend part-time 1–2 evenings per week (typically 3–11 PM), but I plan my schedule thoughtfully around bookings. For reservations made three weeks or more in advance, I’m happy to request time off whenever possible to fully dedicate my availability to your pet. Clear communication and consistency are very important to me, and I always aim to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions and maintain a calm, attentive approach at all times. In your home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking to their normal routines and environment. In my home, pets receive close supervision, a clean and relaxed space, and individualized care. For boarding, I have two friendly, well-socialized cats who are fully up to date on all vaccinations and veterinary care. I always ensure safe, respectful interactions and prioritize a low-stress environment—especially for senior pets or animals who need extra support. I also provide clear communication and regular updates for peace of mind.

“Coming in from out of town I needed a dog sitter for the day to enjoy the sights. Having never met Terrie I was a bit worried but after meeting her and seeing her very clean house and secure backyard all my worries were gone. The dogs were taken care of in a professional way and we had a great day with the family.”

Sheila D.

“Mary is so kind and truly loves animals. She was so kind and patient with my little puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day to ease my anxiety of leaving my dog for the first time. She also is very flexible in her schedule which is exactly what I was looking for. Excited to have Mary watch her again!”

About: I am my friends and family go to dog sitter & walker! I am new to the app and so excited to start drop ins, walks, overnight stays and more! Dogs bring me so much joy & I know how much joy walking brings them! 🥰 I currently work fully remote and have a flexible job so am able to take your doggies out for a walk or break if needed! I love being with animals and spending time just hanging out if they are left being alone. I also enjoy walking dogs as well as playing fetch with them.

About: My husband and I own a very sweet, playful Great Dane/mastiff and a pure bred English Mastiff. We have experience with all kinds of dogs and other animals. We have a large finished upstairs where our dog loves to run and play. We have a large backyard that is fully fenced/gated. We walk daily (in nice weather). We have fun toys to play with and a whole room for your dog to sleep in (instead of a cage) but if your dog prefers a cage we have a huge one he can sleep in (or you can bring your own). I stay home so your pet will have plenty of company! We have three young girls who absolutely love playing with dogs. They are gentle and dogs always love them.
