Doggy Day Care Downtown

“Claire was patient and kind with our younger rescue dog, Quince, who can get stressed in new environments. Our senior dog, Duncan, seemed to do great. We appreciated the pictures of their day and were happy they were comfortable enough to settle in for a snooze. Their home seemed warm and inviting with plenty of comfy spaces to cuddle up. Claire had some good insight for future visits, and we hope to be able to have our boys in her care in the near future.”

“Annie had a great day with Joshua, Jennifer and company! She made friends with new humans, dogs and cats, and I managed to catch up on several things at home. Annie will go back again next week. I feel quite secure about her care there and she was happy and relaxed when I picked her up.”

“Denise is so great with Biscuit. Biscuit is always excited and happy when we drop her off. I know she is well cared for. I appreciate the pictures and reports Denise sends us.”

“Really great care for my very active boy. They incorporated rest times which was important to me since he can't self moderate activity and will play until he hurts himself if allowed.”

“Rogue had an amazing time at his first daycare with Valerie! Her home is truly a dog’s paradise, she’s put so much care into making it fun and safe for pups. As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit anxious, but Valerie eased my worries by answering all my questions and sending thoughtful updates and pictures throughout the day. Rogue came home happy, tired, and completely at ease. It seemed like he didn’t want to leave! We fully trust Valerie and will definitely be booking with her again for daycare and overnight stays. 😊”

“Ying is absolutely fantastic! He took great care of our dog, making sure he had lots of exercise and affection and treats! He sent lots of videos and pictures during the day so we knew he was in good hands. We are very picky about who we trust with our dog and Ying is top notch! We have already booked another day with him. Thank you, Ying!”

About: Hi there! My journey in professional animal care began early, shadowing my mother in her animal behavior and care business. I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of species—including dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, cattle, goats, and rabbits—which shaped my understanding of how to meet animals where they are: emotionally, behaviorally, and physically. While I am not a licensed dog trainer, I’ve spent much of my life developing a thoughtful, intuitive approach to animal care. My professional background includes extensive training in wildlife handling and care techniques. During college, I volunteered at the Cascades Raptor Center in Eugene, assisting with the daily care and rehabilitation of birds of prey. Over the years, I’ve also provided pet care for friends and family, building trust through reliability, compassion, and a deep respect for each animal’s unique needs. Now, I’m excited to offer my experience and dedication to the local community. I’m Fear Free Certified for dogs, and while I’m not certified for cats or other animals, I apply many of the same principles across species: 🧘‍♀️ Creating low-stress environments 🐾 Respecting boundaries and body language 🛏️ Offering comfort, routine, and enrichment 🐕‍🦺 Using gentle handling and positive reinforcement In 2024, I worked with shelter animals at Greenhill Humane Society, where I received extensive behavioral training and advanced to independently care for dogs and support enrichment for cats. That experience helped me develop a deep understanding of animal behavior, stress signals, and how to build trust with pets from all backgrounds. What I offer: 🐶🐱 Drop-in visits, walks, feeding, litter care & medication support 🧶 Enrichment activities tailored to your pet’s personality 📸 Daily updates with photos and notes 🐾 Experience with seniors, shy pets, and those with special needs Whether your pet is playful, reserved, or somewhere in between, I bring calm energy, reliable care, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. Thank you for considering me — as someone who has also used Rover for my own pets, I know it can be daunting to find the perfect fit for your furbabies. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, a drop-in visit, or extended overnight care, I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs without the constraints of a traditional 9–5 job. Because I’m home-based, I can offer: 🐕 Timely potty breaks and walks 🐈 Calm, low-stress drop-ins for cats and small pets 🐾 Flexible scheduling for last-minute requests Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or more involved care, I’m able to integrate it seamlessly into my day, ensuring they get the attention and comfort they deserve. I currently do not offer in-home boarding, but I provide personalized care in your pet’s own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it's a quick drop-in, a longer visit, or multiple check-ins throughout the day, I tailor each session to your pet’s routine and emotional needs. Because I work from home, my schedule is flexible—I can accommodate midday visits, early mornings, or evening care depending on your pet’s habits. I focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience by respecting their space, reading their body language, and offering enrichment that suits their personality. Your pet gets: 🐾 Familiar surroundings and routines 🧘‍♀️ Low-stress care with gentle handling 🐕 Walks, playtime, feeding & medication support 📸 Updates so you stay connected I treat every visit as a chance to build trust and make your pet’s day better. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I’m here to meet them where they are.

“Rosa is great. Brody loved it there. Would definitely leave him there again.”

“Hoppy is a bit of a handful and is always up to something, he seems to enjoy the small groups of dogs Michelly places him with and he comes home tired, so I know he's been playing all day. I highly recommend.”

“I couldn't ask for a better sitter for my dog Juniper. She felt right at home in Jamie's house and with her family. They gave her lots of attention throughout the day and even took her to hang out with the neighbors' dogs. Jamie sent me updates and lots of pictures throughout the day and that really helped to ease my anxiety while at work. 10/10 would recommend to everyone for dog sitting and I will definitely be bringing Juniper back to Jamie in the future!!!”

Ian W.

“Jennifer and Josh have sat my dog multiple times now and I couldn't be happier. My dog had some separation anxiety and trust issues, but he now loves being there after only a few sessions. Jennifer and Josh are really great!”

Austin R.

“I’ve never been more pleased with a Rover booking! She ensured that both I and my pup, June felt comfortable and safe. Cierra even dealt with an upset tummy my pup unexpectedly had. Would recommend to anyone!!”

Madison L.

“We had to make a couple of changes to the times and dates of our dog sitting sessions. Diane was extremely accommodating and did a really nice job of spending some one on one time with our dog, who can get a little anxious when we leave him. Thank you Diane.”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 18. Ive worked at multiple doggy day cares and training. I dont have any pets myself so your animal will have my full attention. I also take care of cats. I grew up with a ton in my family home. Im currently unemployed, I have been aboard. Im taking my time to find a job that involves pets. So my attention will be fully on your pet. I can care for your pets in whatever way you possible require. I have all the free time in the world to make sure your pet is taken care of.

“What a great experience. We needed a last minute day care and based on reviews we chose Sabrina and Derrick. They were thorough asking questions to be sure Skippy was a good fit. Their yard is perfect for dog play and the dogs are also allowed inside. They are obviously experienced with dogs and they are really kind, gentle people. I highly recommend them. Skippy was very relaxed and came back happy.”

“Had a very nice meet and greet with Ruthie and Ollie. My pooch seem very comfortable in her home, he absolutely loved the backyard. Ruthie is very conscientious and attentive to Valdez’s needs. Highly recommend.”

About: I worked in Veterinary medicine as a CVT for 15 years. I’m now in real estate so I have the experience but am able to work from home and spend hours with animals that need special care & medications (whether orally, injectable or topically). I am comfortable with most farm animals as well. My rates are based off of pets that need that extra care/ medications etc. Depending on their needs (or ease of care) my rates can be flexible! Just ask and we can discuss your/your pets needs to figure it out I am available for walks or drop ins most days but for boarding (my house or yours), I am available Wednesdays and Thursdays and every other weekend. Because I can work from home your animals don’t have to be lonely while you’re away! I am active, healthy and smoke free. I love walking dogs, running them at the park, playing chase or tug a war or whatever shenanigans your pet loves. I’ve raised goats, chickens and pigs and have some experience with cows and horses. I have helped with reptiles and birds too.. As having worked in day practice and emergency medicine I have a wide knowledge and experiences with various medical needs, diseases and behaviors. I pay close attention to body language and want to make your time away as stress free and reassured as possible. I am happy to help with house needs during the stay as well such as watering plants, getting the mail, taking out the trash, etc.

About: I’m constantly around animals. I’m wanting to become a veterinarian technician once I get into collage. I was raised having animals. I don’t recall any animals not liking me. I’m a very genuine person. I am very caring when it comes to animals. I’m a huge animal lover also very active when it comes to walks. I’ll make sure ur animals are well cared for. And your house. I was raised a hard worker and very responsible. I promise I will not let you down if you hire me. I hope I can show you how much care I will give for ur animals and I won’t let you down! I am not working right now, so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals! I am free every day. I am available anytime. I will make sure they have everything they need to survive with, food, water, toys, and treats if they need. I can put them in their kennel if need be, and make sure they are well taken care of with lots of love.

“Cassie was a wonderful host for my pup! Mahogany got along with Tilly like an old friend, and Cassie sent me pictures, videos, and updates consistently throughout the day. Their house is basically across the street from one of Hog’s favorite dog parks and he got to spend a bunch of time there! He was happy and tired after a day full of adventure! Highly recommended!”

About: I provide reliable, structured, and genuinely attentive care — not just “watching” your dog, but actively engaging with them to keep them happy, calm, and fulfilled while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including large breeds and high-energy pups, and I tailor care based on each dog’s personality and needs. Whether that means long walks, structured play, mental stimulation, or just a calm presence for anxious dogs, I adjust to what helps them feel safest. I have experience reinforcing basic training (sit, stay, and cool tricks), and maintaining routines. I’m especially patient with puppies who are still learning and senior dogs who may need a slower pace and extra attention. What sets me apart is communication and consistency — you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your dog is doing. If you want picture or messaged every 5 minutes I can do that! I treat every dog like they’re my own, with safety, structure, and affection as my top priorities. I work remotely so I can work from anywhere, anytime. My job is also very flexible so I can always give your pet the attention they need at any time. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I keep a clean, organized, and pet-safe environment free of hazards, and I closely supervise all pets. I never leave dogs unattended in situations that could put them at risk, and I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, medications, crate use, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and maintain your dog’s normal routine to reduce stress. I ensure doors and gates are securely closed, use leashes on walks at all times, and remain alert to surroundings for safety. Communication is key — I provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and give your pet a safe, positive experience every time.
