Doggy Day Care In Downer Woods

“Kim is amazing! We always have her watch our dachshund Wendi whenever we go out of town or have an event to go to. She is so responsive and such a kind person! When she’s watching our dog, we know our dog is in great hands.Our dog always comes home happy and sleepy after hanging out with Kim and her dog! Thank you!!”

“Alexandrea took great care of my 12 week old puppy Driggs. 😊 She sent me lots of photos of Driggs and kept me updated on how he was doing. She also watched him back to back last minute and I appreciated her willingness to do so! I will definitely be using her again and totally recommend her!”

“My dog Nala loves going to daycare with Dane. He is very flexible and does a great job taking care of Nala. She also really enjoys hanging out with his dogs and having a yard to hang out in for the day. Would recommend Dane 10/10.”

“If we could give her 10 stars we would! She made our visit to Milwaukee so much easier. We were nervous leaving Otis while we enjoyed our day out. Michelle assured us he would be fine playing with the other dogs and she was right! She sent pictures of Otis playing and you could tell he was happy and having fun. He also slept very well that night! We appreciate her watching Otis. We couldn’t be more happier of how his care was!”

About: Welcome to my profile! I grew up with a wide variety of pets, so I truly understand how each one has their own unique personality. I know how deserving of love every animal is, and I will do everything in my power to make your pets happy. I treat your pets as my own, while also understanding the need to accommodate to every pet's individual quirks and needs. I recently lost one of my pups to cancer, and because of this, I am really yearning for some more furry friends to meet. Maybe your pet can be my next friend! I recently lost my job, so I currently have a very open schedule! I do have a couple of established clients outside of Rover, but my schedule is still very flexible. I live in a condo-style apartment, so although I do not have a yard, I go on many walks each day- whether around my neighborhood or by driving to a park or beach. I also live just down the street from a dog park, for pups who enjoy socialization and time off-leash. Additionally, I have a patio space for pups who enjoy hanging out al fresco when the weather allows. My own pup is a bit of an escape artist, so I am extra careful with doors, gates, and secure leashing practices. I am also aware of how curious dogs can be, so in my home you can be sure of a safe environment where there are no dangers within a dog's reach (or jump). Not only do I treat your pets with love and respect, but I treat your home with the same care. You can be sure I will keep things neat and tidy, and always make an effort to leave a space cleaner than I found it. No matter the service or location, every animal deserves to feel safe, cared for, and loved. I assure you that I put all my energy into caring for your pets, and I will always treat them as I do my own.

“Our 1-year old chocolate lab Charlie LOVED hanging at Auria’s home! She sent me a pic during the day (so nice ??) & when I picked him up he was in the happiest mood! Will definitely use her again!”

“Drew and Rue are awesome hosts! Luna and Rue became fast friends and they spent a lot of time playing and running around. Drew was kind enough to send pics and video to this nervous fur mom. He also asked if she had any particular routines to follow which was so appreciated. Luna has been good and tired out today so I could get some work done after I picked her up! Highly recommend Drew and Rue, we will be regular clients of theirs moving forward.”

“Amy was great with my pup. She took time with us for meet and greet which was reassuring and helpful. Stayed in touch and sent pics while my pup was with her—highly reccomend.”

“Aidan was amazing with our last second booking and went so far above and beyond! Will definitely send our dog here again next time we’re in the area!”

“Maria provided an early update, as this was Winston’s first time visit with her. A fenced in yard and observing the dogs playing together was noted by me. She asked questions regarding Winston’s care. Communication was good as far as what happened during his day (feeding, etc) and Winston’s came home happy and tired.”

About: Hi there, Just a young professional who loves dogs of all sizes!! I have raised liters of puppies and work with many rescues as a foster and am learning behavior and advanced training. Additionally, I am experienced with dogs who need specialized medical care as I recently had a pet who had many medical needs for two years including administering shots, care for digestive problems, etc. Your dog will receive a lot of attention and love. They will get daily walks in the morning and evenings and outdoor time in my fenced yard as well. If they are larger and more active I would love to run with them. Reach out with any questions or special requests! I can definitely accommodate various needs given my extensive experience with dogs!!! I’m currently working from home every day but have the option to go into work as I wish. I have time throughout the day to walk dogs or watch them during daycare. My evenings are also open as well so I enjoy spending time with animals. The dogs that are in my care are always monitored even when in my fenced backyard. I have a small dog who I have always had to watch and had a senior who recently passed that needed extra attention. I love to play with dogs whether it’s fetch (yes my Pom plays fetch LOL) or just going on a run or walk with larger dogs! Every dog has unique needs based on their age, personality and breed so I like to take all of this into account!

“Mikalanne is so kind and professional. They took our Cavapoo for the weekend and provided helpful updates and excellent care. Highly recommend.”

About: I have lifelong experience with animals, having pets all my life and working various animal care jobs. I worked at a doggy daycare for two years in high school, where I gained hands-on experience managing dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. That role helped me become confident in reading dog behavior, maintaining safe play environments, and providing attentive care throughout the day. Growing up, my family fostered puppies frequently, so I’m comfortable with young dogs and understand the patience, structure, and consistency they need. I’ve also had dogs and cats my entire life and have pet-sat for neighbors and family friends for years, caring for both energetic pets and older animals who need a gentler, more attentive approach. I recently graduated from UW–Madison and moved away from home, and I truly miss being around animals. Pet sitting isn’t just a job for me—it's something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. I’m very caring, responsible, and dedicated, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my days around the pets I’m caring for. I often work from home, so I’m able to provide consistent supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I’m typically not away from home for more than four to six hours at a time, and I’m intentional about making sure pets get regular care, playtime, and affection. Because of my flexible schedule, I can adapt to your pet’s specific needs—whether that’s extra exercise, medication timing, or just lots of cuddles and company.

“Jill was able to accommodate our request rather last minute and was communicative throughout. She gave our senior dog a wonderful day of companionship; we know she was well cared for and left very happy.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. Live near Grant Park for great dog walks, fenced in yard. I have an elderly greyhound who vibes best with other calm dogs. I work remotely and am home throughout the day. Happy to care for your dog for boarding or doggy day care - calm home setup for dogs. I have a fully fenced in yard that dogs love to run around, a close walk to Grant Park for getting outside, and I’m home throughout the day for continuous care.

“I was anxious to find a new daycare for my pup Dexter when I moved to the area. I’m so thankful that we found Mrs Monique, who welcomed Dexter into her home and eased all of my worries. I received updates which reassured me that Dexter was being well taken care of while I was away at work. By the second day, Dexter was so excited to be back at Mrs Monique’s house he walked right inside without a second glance. Could not recommend Monique’s doggy daycare enough.”

About: Hi there! We are lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience and two sweet pit bulls of my own. Our home is shared with my playful and loving 3-year-old boy and my silly, affectionate 1-year-old girl, who both love making new friends. We've spent many years in responsible dog breeding, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, socialization, and individual needs. Whether your pup is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, We are confident and comfortable caring for all personalities, ages, and breeds. With me, your pets will be treated like part of the family — plenty of love, attention, structure, and fun. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive environment where every dog feels at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! --- If you want, I can also tailor it to a specific service (boarding, drop-ins, walks, etc.) or adjust the tone to be more professional, playful, or concise. I offer flexible scheduling for pet boarding thanks to my role with a property management company, which allows me to be home often and adjust my availability as needed. This flexibility helps me give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout their stay. For everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly require all pets to have their own crate during their stay. Crates provide a secure, familiar space for your dog to rest and relax, especially during downtime or when we briefly step out. Their safety and well-being are always our top priority. Also provide your pet with their favorite food/treats for their stay. We are also able to provide that for an additional fee.
