Doggy Day Care in Durham

“Ashley did an excellent job taking great care of our dog. Thanks to her we were able to take our kids to the children's museum which is close by. I could tell our dog was in caring hands. I recommend her highly!”

“I’m so grateful I found Karen to watch my puppy Wesley while I’m away for a work trip! She’s very kind and flexible. Wesley had a trial run today before I leave on my trip. I feel relieved to know my fur baby will be in good hands. Thank you Karen!!!”

“Christina was great with our 6 month old puppy and has 2 adorable dogs that our puppy played with. Responsive and reliable and sent check-ins while we were away. Definitely recommend!”

“Josh and Nicole were awesome- we were so nervous about leaving our new dog while we went away for over a week, but they made it so easy. They spoiled her just like we would have, sent us constant updates, and kept up with her medications with no issue. They took great care of our cats in our home at the same time as well. Definitely recommend.”

“Julie helped me out last minute watching my puppy with less than 24 hours notice. She welcomed me into her home and showed me around. She asked about what treats were okay, which was really appreciated since Theo is only 4 months. She sent me a ton of pictures that showed how welcome and happy my puppy was to be with her. He had a great time and I know he'd be happy to return.”

“Paco has gone to Jessica and Noah’s home twice. We are in town, and don’t want Paco to stay alone in a strange place. He has done well staying with them, and we appreciate their good care, and giving him his medicine. We are happy to have them to go to. Highly recommended.”

“Riley had a great time with Shantelle! He was so laid back and happy after their day together I know he was well taken care of, look forward to many more playdays. Terry Miltner”

“I had a fantastic experience with Danielle and Timothy at Percy's daycare! From the moment they picked him up in the morning, everything went smoothly. They are incredibly kind and attentive, making sure Percy feels comfortable and happy throughout the day. It's clear they truly care about the dogs they look after, and their professionalism is top-notch. I highly recommend their services to any pet owner who wants peace of mind. Danielle is a great communicator and sent pictures and videos of Percy playing with her lovely dog Piper. Thanks, Danielle and Timothy, for taking such great care of Percy!”

“Thora has been a dog owner for over 20 years and a dog lover for even longer. Thora loves to be outdoors as much as her pups and enjoys walks in the woods and beach! Thora is a caring, loving person who cares for people and pets in the same manner. Thora has been involved in my dogs lives for a very long time, I trust Thora to give them the love, attention and walks they need when I go away.”

“Not only is Betsy responsible and reliable, she is also incredibly kind to both animals and humans. Her communication is timely and clear, and I fully trust her to be in my home. There are not many humans I would feel comfortable with taking care of my best girl, but she is certainly one of them!”

“Nicole took great care of my dog during a daycare, and she has a safe and awesome yard. It’s always hard leaving your best friend with a new sitter, but I could tell that my dog had a great day and we will definitely come back to Nicole’s for future daycare and boarding!”

“I love Izzy! I have been her hair stylist for the last 5 years, always love getting to spend time with her. When I got my first pup she offered to walk her during my long days at work. She is always on time, gives a thorough walk and will even go the extra mile to dry her off before bringing her back. 10/10 would recommend :)”

“Erin is a great dog sitter! My dog absolutely loves her. She takes my dog, Lilly walking/ hiking in the woods. She has toys and chewy toys for the dogs as well. Erin is very responsible and reliable, so you can be sure she will show up and do a great job when she has committed. Your dogs are in great hands when Erin is watching them!!”

“Piper had an awesome day with Sheila and Dakota!! She loved playtime and her walks and we loved getting photos of her day! Sheila is a great dog sitter, very attentive and had Piper's best interests in mind. Her communications were very clear and prompt. We definitely plan to use her again and would recommend her without any hesitation. Thank you so much!!”

“Drew has taken care of my 2 rescue dogs a number of times. She walks them when needed and they just love to see her arrive at my house. She has kept them overnight and kept me informed with messages and pictures which gave me piece of mind. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets.”

“I can not recommend Gary and his wife enough. They were absolutely wonderful and a breath of fresh air. My boy is my absolute world and we both have a little separation anxiety. Gary was very patient, understanding, and worked so well to make him feel safe and secure while in their care. They were very responsive and provided daily updates. Our boy was very happy and had a great time. I’m so happy to have found someone that I trust him with. We will 100% use Gary again.”

About: Without exception, the dog park is always one of the best parts of my day. I've had three dogs of my own, and have been around countless other dogs, most of whom instantly become my new best friends. We just gravitate to each other, hence the fuzzy friend whisperer nickname. I have a playful, loving attitude toward every dog I meet. I am also sensitive to dogs who need a little more patience and space to ease into trusting me and respect the boundaries that they need to do that. My training style with my own dogs is focused on positive reinforcement rather than punishment. This approach translates to other dogs as well, unless their owners request differently. Your dog will be in caring, responsible hands with me. They will be loved. I'm self employed and work mostly from home so my schedule is quite flexible. When house sitting, I won't leave your dog alone for more than 5 hours and will likely just bring them home with me during the day where they'll receive more regular attention throughout the day. I live on a small farm but also live near a road, so your dog will always be safely on a leash when we go outside for potty breaks. I have a very friendly 11 year old 55lb labradoodle named Huck to keep your baby company in the rare cases that I'm not at home. House sitting situations will only work if your animals are friendly with other dogs and you're ok with me bringing my own dog with me to stay. I may bring them home with me during the day, where they'll get more regular attention throughout the day (unless they'd be happier staying at home and snoozing). I have a "squirrel observatory" (bird feeder) right near my workspace so your dog will not only be supervised most of the time but also entertained.

“Ariele was great with Harvey, they had a fun day!”

“Erin was great. Prompt communication and very reliable. Highly recommend!”

“Riley thoroughly enjoys his stay with Molly on every occasion. Molly has great communication skills and loves to send pictures of Riley’s favorite moments.”
