Doggy Day Care in Dogwood Acres

“Greg and his daughter, Angela did a great job with our 6 month old Golden-doodle. She was definitely worn out when we got home so obviously had good exercise.”

“Can I give six stars?? Evie and Fritz provided the exact care we were looking for. Great spaces for playing and cuddling, steady stream of attention, and pure love for dogs. When our pup got too distracted to eat dinner, they sat with her to make sure she was fully fed. Highly recommend and cannot wait to book with them again!”

“Heather was able to accept my request for day care for my dog very quickly or last minute. My pup was happy and tired at the end of the day. I would recommend going to heather for day care!”

About: With a lifelong passion for dogs, I currently have four of my own and bring years of hands-on experience caring for special and medical needs pups. As a former dedicated foster, I’m confident handling a variety of personalities and care routines, while happily welcoming all dogs. Dogs enjoy plenty of activity (or not!) with access to a large, fenced yard and walks in a beautiful, walkable neighborhood. My dogs are relaxed, friendly, and adjust well to new companions. I’m best suited for dogs who are housebroken and have good home manners. No matter if you’re looking for daycare, overnight boarding, social time, or longer-term care, this is a warm and reliable spot for your pup. ***I do require a meet and greet at my house prior to a stay. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, allowing me to be home throughout the day. I’m always home in the evenings and maintain a structured routine for feeding and medication needs. Daily walks are part of our routine with one of my dogs and are available for visiting pups as well, weather permitting. We almost always have soothing music on to keep a very chill vibe! A safe, comfortable stay with plenty of space to relax and explore. My home features a large, fully fenced backyard and a screened-in porch perfect for lounging and watching neighborhood activity (and local wildlife!). I prioritize safety by crating or gating dogs when I’m away briefly, and I’m rarely gone for more than a couple of hours. While I’m home, pets enjoy free roam and can settle in wherever they’re most comfortable—including bedtime. My own dogs are very relaxed but social and engaged. We’re a great fit for dogs who enjoy low to moderate activity and interaction but are also able to settle down and relax or play on their own. For everyone’s comfort and safety, visiting pups should be friendly, well-behaved, and non-aggressive.

“Adrian is amazing! My pup loves going there; it’s very evident that Adrian takes great care of her and I feel relieved during the work day knowing that she is in excellent hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I am an experienced, attentive, and responsible pet care-giver providing peace-of-mind and a calm environment where your fur-baby can relax while you are away for work or travel. I grew up loving and caring for every kind of pet you can imagine and I have 18 years experience caring for cats. I also have 10 years experience caring for a cockatiel and I love parrots. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I can host pets in my home and can also visit your home for pet care during weekend days and in the evening. I live in a townhome neighborhood with lots of room to walk and a green space in the back. I work at a computer and take regular breaks to move around and check on my cat and other pets that I am hosting. I usually sit on the floor while I work so dog friends and other cuddly pets can sit near me if they want and get pets and attention any time. My space is clean and calm with room for pets to move around freely or rest on a comfy couch or pet bed.

“My pup Hazel is so happy to see Denise! Denise is clearly a real dog-lover. She is also easy to communicate with and flexible about making plans.”

About: I have extensive experience working with pups (and pet parents) who struggle with separation anxiety as well as long term periods of care for your furry little guys! My first memories as a kid are playing with my family's chocolate lab and I've been an absolute dog lover ever since. I spent 2 years as a Petsmart dog washer during my undergrad and learned valuable dog handling skills that would make me an excellent dog washer. I do tend to spoil dogs with love and affection and would absolutely pamper them. I am a physics grad student who does research remotely and I primarily work from home. I have a fluid schedule and can adjust my time to fit your schedule. I live in an apartment with no other pets and have a large open area for leashed walks and potty time. I am a skilled dog handler and am able to ensure your pup will get enough exercise in a safe and controlled environment. I maintain a tidy home and don't leave things out for dogs to chew on or destroy and will keep the same level of cleanliness in your home.

“Julie is super kind and friendly, great with Zuko, and very flexible. Zuko loves going there. House is kept clean and her dog is very well behaved and chill/gets along with other dogs.”

About: I am an attorney by trade currently at home with my six-month-old baby. I have a five year old pit mix and have sat for dogs and cats for years. I’d love to host your pet at my home for the day or night! I am currently awaiting assignment from my office, so I’m not working much and am extremely flexible during the day! I have a car and can get anywhere in the Chapel Hill/Carrboro area. I am a dog owner myself and I trust my pup with Rover sitters when I leave her, so I know how important it is to know your fur baby is in safe hands!!

“Glinda enjoyed her visit with Jessica, hanging out in peaceful surroundings with other dogs, and a cat! and taking nice walks. Jessica was great at sending photos and letting me know how Glinda was doing, and Glinda certainly looked relaxed and happy and will definitely stay with Jessica again.”

“Ashley took care of our Dobby in the most amazing way we could ever imagine. She understood what’s need for the pup beforehand , and was very informed. She kept us informed on how he is doing without even us having to ask for it. She even helped us to load and unload Dobby’s things in the car. She was amazing! I highly highly recommended her and I am so confident that she would take care of any dog like her own as she loves doing it.”

About: Hi! I'm a full time stay at home mom of two kids and a pet parent of two furry family members, Togo (our beloved dog) and Ninja our cat. Animals are a huge part of our everyday life and I know how important it is to find someone reliable and caring to look after your pet because I want the same level of care for my own. I've always loved animals and caring for them has naturally become part of my everyday life. Along with several years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, I volunteer with local dog shelters where I've successfully completed different training programs in dog behavior, safe handling and basic obedience. I'm comfortable working with dogs of all sizes including rescue dogs who may need extra patience and love. Since I'm home full time your pet gets lots of attention throughout the day, frequently potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of love. I stick closely to routines, follow your instructions and pay attention to body language so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I love sending photos updates and messages so you can see how things are going while you're away. My goal is simple: give your pet loving, reliable care and treat them like part of our family. I'm currently a stay home mom of two kids (10 and 13) and our two furry best friends Togo and Ninja. I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and give them the attention they need. I have a big fenced yard and a gentle, funny and loving dog, Togo and our cat Ninja who likes to sleep all day long!

About: Very friendly towards both dogs and dog owners, flexible with different dog breeds, sizes, and conditions. Comfortable with commutation and offering the best possible service 👏 Pet care fits into my schedule almost the entire day by implementing pet care, walking, spending time, and also feeding dogs that I am currently looking after. I’ve been raised in a dog family my entire life and I’m more than knowledgeable with looking after animals including cats and dogs.

“I had to leave my dog for a long day this weekend and I’m so grateful this worked out. They were great at knowing how to be mindful of introducing my dog to the new space and to their pups, they were great with communication and my dog was well taken care of and happy, so I’m happy! Thanks! ???”

“My 5 month old Samoyed puppy (Everest) had a great time with Dean. It looked like he was in a resort having fun throughout his one week stay. Initially we were worried leaving him for boarding as he is a 5 month puppy and this was his first boarding experience. But Dean took great care of him, sent videos and pictures on a daily basis and even trained him to be more disciplined. I'm sure Everest is looking for his next play time at Dean's dog resort.”
