Doggy Day Care Downtown

About: I’m the definition of a “dog person” — we’ve had several of our own, and we’ve been a boarding stop for friends and family for years. I’m not working full-time right now, so I have plenty of time to exercise your fur-friend, or just drop in for a visit! If you have any specific questions or concerns, I’d be happy to answer them! I’m not working full-time at the moment, so I’m available any day, at any time! Plenty of time for long walks or drop-ins, whatever your pet needs. Whatever you and your pet are comfortable with! I’ve dealt with tiny dogs and huge dogs, seniors and young puppies — they’re all special to me.

“Linett is the absolute best 10/10 service!!!! We cannot thank you enough for caring for our pup Fenway. Your flexibility, consistent communication, and attention to Fen definitely put us at ease. We appreciate you, and Fen absolutely LOVES you lol. We will be booking again”

“Latrice was available last minute on Christmas eve/Christmas morning of all days. Was literally a lifesaver that she was available last minute on a holiday. My puppy was happy as could be when I picked him up and I could tell he was well taken care of. :) I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Big milestone for Gus this week—his very first stay with Isabella, and it couldn’t have gone better. 🐾 About a month ago, we did a meet-and-greet so they could get acquainted, and today was the perfect chance for them to spend more time together and strengthen that bond before our trip next week. It means so much knowing he’s becoming comfortable, confident, and happy in her care. Isabella has such a calm, gentle presence, and Gus settled in almost immediately. Even though it was just a day visit, she sent texts and photos throughout the day, which gave us such peace of mind. The best part? Gus had such a wonderful time that he didn’t even want to go home. 💛 That’s the kind of reassurance every dog parent hopes for!”

About: I understand different energy levels, personalities, and routines, and I’m especially patient, attentive, and loving. I treat every dog as if they’re my own — with care, structure, and lots of affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and work schedule. I have the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m reliable, punctual, and communicative, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I create a calm, safe environment, follow all instructions carefully, and treat every pet like my own with love, supervision, and consistent updates. I got you!

About: New here 👋🏾 and I'm really looking forward to caring for your fur babies. I've always had pets for as long as I can remember. I love animals, especially dogs. I WFH so i'm available all day to your pet. I have a puppy of my own, he will really enjoy having friends around! I work from home, so i'm able for multiple potty breaks and 15 minute lunch time walks with your pet. Some evenings I have a workout class that I like to attend, so it'd be great if your pet is used to being in a cage. There is a dog park and a recreational park near me. My puppy and I frequent both and i'm happy to bring your fur baby along with me if that is something that they like!

“Ana was great! She was very responsive and accommodating with scheduling. I so appreciated all the photos and updates she provided throughout the day, it was easy to tell my pup was having a wonderful time!”

About: I've been around animals since I was a little kid. Grew up on my grandparents' farm taking care of dogs, bunnies, pigs, sheep, cows, you name it. That's where my love for them started. I've trained every dog I've ever owned myself — from a big Rottweiler to a tiny Chihuahua-pug mix, and now my German Shepherd that I raised from a puppy. I'm good at reading their body language, teaching manners, and fixing leash reactivity so walks are actually enjoyable. Been walking dogs for friends and family for years and house-sat a bunch of times. I'll treat your pets like my own — give them the love and attention they deserve, keep them well-behaved, and make sure you have total peace of mind while you're gone. Your dog will be spoiled, safe, and happy with me. I recently transitioned to full-time pet care, so I'm home all day, every day; weekdays and weekends. That means your dog gets my full attention, whether they're at my place or yours. I take them for potty breaks, longer walks, and plenty of playtime to keep them happy and never bored. In my home, the dog always gets my full attention. I'll make sure they feel safe and comfortable, keep them entertained with playtime, and work on training. I love watching them go from not knowing a command to nailing a solid sit, heel, or place. Of course I'll handle all the basics too, feeding exactly how you tell me, potty breaks on schedule, and making sure they're never stressed or bored. Whether it's at my place or yours, I'll treat your dog like my own and give them the attention they need.

“Leo had the best time! And it’s always so reassuring when your pup gets excited to see someone again!! Highly recommend”

About: I have been taking care of my dog for 6 years and have experience dogsitting for over 10years. My dog loves to have a friend over and we love to make their stay as amazing as we can. As a dog owner, I want to provide the relief that your dog is well taken care of of while you are away 😊 I currently work from home. Your dog would get plenty of walks throughout the day as well as playtime with my dog. I also have a small courtyard they can access for potty breaks and smell breaks. I have a very small fenced in courtyard for potty breaks and just hanging out outside. I take my dog on walks multiple times a day and we have an afternoon/evening playtime session. My dog Charlie, is a gentle giant and loves guests.

“Rachel did a great job watching Rebel for the day. He looked very comfortable in the picture and she was flexible with drop off and pick up.”

About: I’ve been a dedicated pet owner for years and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’ve cared for my cat, Willow, for the past three years and previously owned a dog for several years, giving me experience with pets of different personalities, routines, and needs. As a physician, I’m naturally detail-oriented, dependable, and calm under pressure…qualities I bring to pet care as well. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Always a text away I’m currently studying for my board exams, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend most of my day at home for the next two months. I enjoy having animals around while I study and naturally take frequent breaks to play, provide enrichment, refresh water, clean litter boxes, or take dogs out for walks and potty breaks. This routine allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and consistent care throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space for your pet to relax and feel at ease. While my cat, Willow, is friendly and does well with other animals, I keep her in a separate room during boarding to ensure every pet has their own space and to help them settle in without added stress. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little. I just got back from taking care of my parents 8 week old puppy for two weeks and 10 year old Cavapoo. I work remote and have good flexibility so will able to take care of the dog and take it for walks during the work day! I live in an apartment but I go for about 4 walks a day but can change my schedule depending on what the dog needs :) no other pets and a clean apartment.

“Ryan is awesome!! He has watched my 2 large golden doodles for a long weekend, and for daycare and both experiences have been seamless! Ryan’s responds almost instantaneously and is always available in a pinch. He makes pick up and drop off super easy and send lots of updates! My dogs have a blast playing in his backyard.”

About: I grew up with dogs both big and small- from a rescue Beagle, to a Yorkie, and now my family’s 2 year old Anatolian Shepherd before moving from Maryland to Charlotte. I also grew up with 2 cats, Sumo and Shelby, so I have experience with both furry friends! I work remote, so I have a very flexible schedule. I also started more recently volunteering at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Shelter. I’d love to take care of your pet! 🐾❤️ I currently work remote 9am-5pm Monday-Friday, so I have the flexibility to be with and care for your pet throughout the day. My evenings are pretty relaxed, so I can even give your pet all of the love once I’m done with work for the day! I am also available on the weekends to do the same. I live in an apartment with 2 other women right across the street from a large park for your dog to play! I’m also not too far from the rail trail, so if your dog is friendly with other dogs I can even take them to the trail for some exercise. In my clients’ homes, I will be sure to follow any instructions to make sure you and your pet are comfortable!
