Doggy Day Care in East Massapequa

About: Hi! I'm Lauren :) As a school teacher, responsibility, patience, and safety are naturally built into everything I do, so you can rest assured your pup is in highly capable hands with me. I recently lost my beloved dog and absolute best friend, Charlie, and pet sitting has become my favorite way to channel all that leftover love into spoiling, pampering, and protecting other people's furry family members. I am a new homeowner, which means your dog will get to enjoy a spacious, fully fenced-in backyard that is perfect for safe outdoor playtime, fetch, and afternoon zoomies. Since I am on summer break, my schedule is completely wide open for boarding, housesitting, or check-ins and drop-ins to let your pup out. I know how tough it is to be away from your pets, so I make it a priority to send picture updates throughout the day so you always have total peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a high-energy or calm play space, I cannot wait to welcome them into my new home! I am a teacher, which means I am available all summer long. If your pet needs care in the mornings, evenings, or nights, whatever your schedule needs, I am there! I have a house with a spacious, fenced-in yard. I do not have other pets, so I would love to share my yard with some furry friends. Your pet will be my main focus, receiving lots of love and attention!

About: I love spending time with dogs, I prioritize going above and beyond to ensure your fur baby feels comfortable and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent updates with photos and videos throughout the day to keep you informed about your pet’s activities and well-being. I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding and/or for just a fun day care at anytime. I maintain a flexible schedule to maintain your pet’s needs. With a fenced in yard, I can provide regular exercise to help your pet stay fit, strong and keep those tails wagging. In my home your pet will have a safe and cozy place to stay.

About: Hi, I’m Taylor! 🐶🐾 Animals have always held a special place in my heart — I’m a lifelong pet lover and experienced caregiver with a deep understanding of how important our furry family members truly are. I’ve spent years caring for pets of all kinds, from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra TLC. Whether I’m going on long walks, playing fetch in the yard, or just relaxing with a pup who loves a good belly rub, I genuinely enjoy every moment spent with animals. I believe pets thrive with love, consistency, and a calm, patient approach — and that’s exactly what I bring to every visit. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether you’re heading out for a day or a longer trip, you can count on me to provide attentive, loving care and regular updates so you feel at ease. I’d love to get to know you and your pet — let’s set up a meet and greet! I am currently not working and home raising my 2.5 year old son and my 1.5 year old pup! My son is in activities throughout the week but they don’t take up too much time. I would only be gone for about 2 hours a day MAX! I have a 6 foot fenced in yard with a large leveled patio and grass for your furbaby to enjoy sunbathing, playing in the snow, running and playing. I currently have a 1.5 year old female puppy named Roxy! She is an ANGEL!! She gets along with every dog. She is about 35 pounds, fully grown. I also have a 2.5 year old son who calls Roxy his “sissy”. He, like his mother is a huge animal (of all kinds) lover. I do have a small crate and an extra large crate from my previous dogs. The small crate can hold up to about a 20 pound dog where the large crate can hold up to about a 100 pound dog. I am willing to discuss whatever it is that your fur baby needs because I know they are all different and require different things!

“Sarah is an exceptional caregiver for our pup Leela! She was so thorough when we dropped Leela off and made sure every single area that Leela would be in was shown to us. There is tremendous care and intention that Sarah puts into her services and it shows. Leela was at ease being with her, and we will be dropping Leela off to hang out with Sarah, her children, and her pup every time we are in Long Island. Her daughter also drew leela two beautiful drawings and one can tell your pup will be treated like family. She is also very attentive and well versed in caring for a puppy’s needs.”

About: Hello! I am a young active working professional. I work from home during the week and am home weekends. I love my Siberian Husky, Pi, and my shorthair Border Collie, Jinx. We like to play catch and go to the dog parks together. Both of my dogs are up to date on vaccines. They love medium to big dogs and not as good with small dogs. Pi loves to cuddle and Jinx can play all day! They are really friendly and sweet. We have pillows and couches laying around and a fenced yard with lots of fetching balls that they can play in. Our house is spacious and we have people home around most of the day. We would love to host other dogs for companionship. I'm working full time from home and control my own working schedule so I will have plenty of time to play with your dog! My two dogs and I typically go outside and play three times during the day. I have a big fenced yard for my dogs (and yours!) with a garden where they can roam around. I also have a little doggie pool in the summer. Our two dogs really like to play outside! We have a small kid who loves dogs and so are looking to host dogs that are friendly with kids.

About: I have own several different animals. As well as work for petco for 3 years. I had a Doberman growing up. I work with the animals shelter to take care of the puppies at my petco. We would walk them and feed them give water. Change their wee wee pads if needed and most of all show them love and play with them I’m currently working as Direct support professional Sunday - Thursday 3pm-11pm my off days are usually Friday and Saturday. So be available for pet care on those days and can do mornings before work on general weekdays. If in client house I will listen and respect any rules for the animals or care guide for the animals. If pet care is at my home or area. I would walk the dog in my neighborhood or near by parks.

About: Attentiveness, love and kindness. I give them the care they deserve not just need. I have had animals 25 years. I need animals as much as they need us. I am available to give injections and medications as our current cat has diabetes. I work from home so I am available the majority of the day besides errands. I also have cared for a senior yellow lab for the last several years before he went over the rainbow bridge. I’ve had cats my whole adult life while Most of our friends and family have dogs. I really enjoy watching my sisters poodle and cavalier mix. I have also care for my mother in laws dog who was over 100 pounds. Growing up with a shitzue im very familiar with small and large breeds with many different temperaments . I work from home so I am easily available and love the company . I love walking so long walks and potty breaks are easily do able . We will be with the pet most the day besides errands. I would never accept a job If i wasn't home the majority of the day for that animal. I have a fenced in yard, an alarm system and are aware of dogs signals and needs to be able to build trust with them to make sure they are comfortable. With having two children as well my first priority is always safety. I would also be able to send pictures of your pet while you are away so you can see their daily activity as well. If facetime is a request I can accommodate that as well.

About: I grew up in a house full of pets and have volunteered at various pet rescues. Now, 51 years later, through every chapter of my life, milestones, joys, and losses, there has always been a pet by my side. I can’t imagine a home without the sound of paws, the comfort of companionship, or the simple, grounding presence of an animal. I work full time from home and am happy to be flexible to any schedule. This works particularly well for pets that are used to a routine. My pets include a Labrador Retriever named "Jax" who is 6 years old. Jax likes to run about in our fenced yard. I also have 3 cats named "Beau", "Shadow" and "Oliver" who remain indoor. All of my babies are rescues.

“I can’t thank Michelle enough for the amazing job she did watching my 6-month-old pitbull! My pup is super high energy and was a bit nervous at first, but Michelle made her feel right at home. She was so patient, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. I really appreciated the updates and pictures she sent throughout the visit—it gave me so much peace of mind. I’m especially grateful that she was able to help on such short notice. I highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
