Doggy Day Care Edgewood-Kirkwood

“Our sweet Golden loves Hope so much! She was amazing for Daycare services during our kitchen renovation, and now we take him once a week just so he can get some extra love during long work weeks! We highly recommend Hope and we know that our doggie is well taken care of and loved whenever he is there!”

Latoya P.

“So happy with the entire experience. Sarah immediately made me and my doggies feel comfortable with our visit! Can’t wait to have them back! Thank you!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats (often at the same time) since I was old enough to hold the leash and walk with one of my childhood family pups Hershey on my own. My spouse (Paroma) and I have fostered and rescued dogs and cats of all ages and sizes -- from rambunctious puppies and kittens to senior fospice (foster hospice) cats and dogs -- since 2018. We currently have a Pitty-mix (Mako) our long-legged Jack Russell terrier/Chihuahua/Corgi (Boris) and a sweet orange cat named Cathulu (or Cat, for short). Our animal care philosophy is simple: when your animal is with us, I (we) ensure they know they're loved, well-fed, and have plenty of play time, walks, and/or good company, no matter where they are. I am currently available for full time dog/cat sitting (our house boarding or in your house overnights), in-house/apartment visits, walks, play time, or anything besides certified training and grooming. I am available all seven calendar days in the week. I have a fenced yard, two sweet dogs and a cat to keep your creature company. If your dog or cat prefers their own space, I will absolutely ensure they have it in our home. When we schedule an appointment, I will gladly schedule a complimentary "meet and greet" for your pet(s) and I to get to know each other. During our "meet and greet," I'll ask you all of the questions related to your lovely pet's care. No "special need" or "quirk" will surprise me, so please feel free to share anything and everything with me as we meet and greet. I would be honored to take care of your sweet pet. They're family: they deserved to be treated like it.

“Alannah H is absolutely wonderful with my fur child Yana. She treats Yana as if she is her own. I constantly get photos and communications regarding Yana. It is a relief to know that I found someone that I can just and someone that treats my fur child as if she was her own. Thank you Alannah!”

About: Hello! I grew up in New Jersey and have called Georgia home for the last 8 years. As early as I can remember, I’ve loved being around animals of all shapes and sizes. I bond easily with most animals because I am a kind, calm, and confident person. My friends call it a nurturing spirit because countless times I have been to a gathering or party and someone's pet decided that I was their new best friend. When I started living on my own in Atlanta, I decided it was time to adopt my first pets as an adult. I adopted two seniors who still had so much love to share. Their names were Brittanica (the cat) and Roberta (the dog). Both were diagnosed with chronic illnesses that required IV fluids and maintenance medications that had to be given on particular schedules. With advice from their care team, I made sure that each interaction for treatment was a positive experience. Sometimes I pulled out all the stops with treats, bundling them in a blanket, and setting up a soothing environment. If your pet requires such treatments, written notes would be appreciated so I can reference the process as much as possible. My current pets are younger than my first two and keep me on my toes! We have a lot of fluffy fun as Stellaluna is a sweetheart, longhaired domestic cat and Sir Waddles Von Wigglebutt is a very friendly, laid back corgi. We have a good routine where the first thing we do when we wake up is pre-breakfast cuddle time! There have been times where we’ve needed to be flexible and eat breakfast first though. My day-to-day is structured so that I can get steps in with Waddles and I can set up enrichment activities for his working dog nature. Often you’ll see us with the Atlanta Corgi group so he can be a social butterfly. If the weather isn’t great or I have a deadline to meet at work, he’ll stay home and do puzzles. Other hobbies that fit in my schedule include playing DND or board games, doing dog training classes with Waddles, and watching TV with Stella. When it comes to taking care of your pets, I will make sure that we keep to the routine they’re most familiar with too! We’ll do videos and pics as much as we can during the visit. My goal with each visit is that your pet is treated well and feels like they’re getting their own vacation even though they’ll be missing you. I work in the film industry in post production and I work remotely from home. I will have plenty of time to play and check on your furry friend for scheduled appointments. When I do not have an active contract, I enjoy taking longer walks and playing with your pet extra with your pet. To guarantee more than 30 minutes of play time, please book my 60 min visits. Safety is a top priority when I am taking care of animals. Regardless of how well trained a pet is, they are animals and are unpredictable at times. For that reason, when walking your dog, I will make sure that it is on leash unless we are in your fenced yard. If your dog is staying over with me, a crate is necessary so they have their own space where they’re safe when I’m not home. I do have a cat so if your dog is not cat friendly, we will not be able to work together. I believe in strong communication and transparency. While with your fuzzy friend, I will send you updates and photos through the app!

“Corrin was THE BEST!! So friendly and had so much room in the front yard and back yard for the pups to roam and play. My dog was exhausted when she got home!”

About: Hi, I’m Ricardo. I grew up with dogs and had my own for 22 years, so this is second nature to me. I take one family at a time, so your dog gets the whole house, the fenced yard, and all my attention. Siblings welcome, they stay together. I have no dog of my own, so there’s no resident pup to compete with, and no crates or kennel noise either. Send me your routine, food, meds, potty schedule, and I’ll keep it. Photos and a real update every day. Happy to meet first. I work from home, so your dog isn’t alone all day. Mornings start with a walk before I log on, then they hang around with me while I work, with yard breaks through the day. Another real walk in the evening, dinner on your dog’s normal schedule, and bed wherever they’re most comfortable. Weekends are slower with more yard time. I only accept dates I know I’m home for, so if I take your booking, I’m here. My place is a normal house with a securely fenced backyard, and I walk the fence line and check the gate before every stay. Dogs stay inside with me, not in a garage or a crate, unless yours prefers a crate and you bring it. I host one family at a time, so there are no strange dogs in the mix and no group play to manage. I’ll make sure I have details on feeding, meds, vet info, and anything that sets your dog off. Leash on any time we leave the yard. If something seems off, you hear from me right away, and I’ll get to your vet or the nearest emergency clinic if it can’t wait. I ask that dogs are current on vaccines and flea prevention.

“Samma was very accommodating & clearly loves dogs & knows what she's doing. My dog is a very energetic & very large puppy, so he's a handful, but she was great about sending updates, & giving me a report when I picked him up, I'll definitely use her service again in the future.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have watched for many family and friends over the years, and have found so much joy with having a home full of dogs. I have a 9 year old golden retriever named Whiskey that I’ve had since he was 9 weeks old. We enjoy going for long walks on the beltline and old fourth ward park every day. I currently work full time from home and make my own meeting schedule and I have weekends off and tailor my current schedule around my own dog. I live in a very active community on the Atlanta beltline. The property is fenced and everyone is friendly. Providing overnight and longer stays as well as daycare during the day.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs forever. There has not been a full year in my life where I didn’t have a family dog or a dog of my own. We recently lost our pit mix to a tumor and our sr husky mix could use come company. I am home every day and have the ability to take care of your dog while you’re away I have a large fenced backyard that will allow your dog to be out and active. Large fenced yard with plenty of space for your dog to run around. I do have 1 senior dog who’s a little less mobile than he used to be.

“Laura did a great job taking care of our pups. They seemed like they had a great time, and we would definitely have her watch them again in the future.”

About: I grew up with a sweet dachshund and have been a dog-lover ever since! Andrew and I both work from home full time, and that makes us the go-to pet sitter for neighbors and friends. We’ve had experience with both active dogs and those that might need a little more care and patience. We love having a new friend around to keep us company! We both work fully remote jobs and therefore can give your fur-baby all the attention they may need! We always aim to go out at least 4 times a day, but can adhere to your pet’s specific schedule. We offer flexible boarding availability throughout the week and weekends. For any weekend bookings, we do ask that your pet be comfortable being alone for at least a couple of hours since there may be instances where we will be out of the house running errands. While we don’t currently have any pets of our own, our pet-friendly apartment will cater to your furry friend’s comfort. We live on the Beltline making it the perfect setting for long walks or quick potty breaks. We’re more than happy to accommodate your pet’s needs, whether it is crating them or something else.

About: I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to provide the same level of care and attention I would want for my own pets. I've cared for many dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, which helps me understand when a pet wants to play, needs space, or is feeling anxious. Whether your pet is outgoing or shy, my goal is to build trust, keep them comfortable, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I work from home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, which means plenty of attention for your pet. My Border Collie loves having furry guests, and they’ll enjoy frequent potty breaks in the shared backyard, daily walks, and playtime at the community dog park located right behind my unit. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with close supervision throughout the day. I follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Brooke was amazing! She took such good care of my dog and cared for him so so well. I can’t wait to use her again in the future! I highly recommend booking her!”

About: New to Rover, but not to dogs! I have 14 years of experience caring for dogs: from raising my beloved Pinscher Coco to years of dog sitting and boarding dogs of all breeds and sizes. Sadly, I recently had to say goodbye to my baby and I’d love to share that same care, attention and love I gave her with your dog. ❤️🌈 I’m European and offer what I like to call a “European-style dog-sitting experience”: • One dog at a time. I only accept one dog (or dogs from the same household) at a time, so your dog gets my full attention and is cared for as if they were my own. • Plenty of proper walks. Two lengthy walks of at least 1hr each per day, usually in the park or on the Beltline, plus regular potty breaks. I will NOT go to dog parks until I know your dog very well- your pets safety always comes first. (Of course, everything is adjusted to your dog’s age, health and energy level) • Mental enrichment. Brain-stimulation toys, snuffle mats, treat puzzles, lick mats, playtime and other activities based on what your dog enjoys. • I work from home. I’ll be with your dog throughout their stay, with plenty of company, attention, cuddles, playtime and supervision. • Peace of mind for you. You’ll receive regular photos and updates throughout their stay, so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. • Just bring your dog! I provide everything needed for a comfortable stay: a spacious kennel, food & water bowls, toys, enrichment activities and treats, plus basic kibble if ever needed in a pinch. You’re of course always welcome to bring their favorite bed or toys from home; I just ask that you provide their usual food to keep their routine and diet consistent. I pride myself on offering a true dog retreat. Fair warning: your dog might not want to come home! 🐾😂 I work from home and am home about 90% of the time, which means your dog will have plenty of company, walks, playtime and attention throughout the day. I do occasionally step out for errands, groceries or a workout class. During those times, as well as overnight, your dog will be safely kenneled. For this reason, I can only accept dogs who are fully crate-trained and comfortable settling in their crate. I take this job incredibly serious. I know that for many of us, our dogs aren’t “just pets” - they’re family and often quite literally our babies 🐶❤️ I am First Aid/CPR certified and own a dog first aid kit. After every boarding visit I thoroughly clean and sanitize the space and toys with non-toxic cleaning supplies. Your pups safety, comfort and happiness always come first!

“I loveeeeeeeddd Josh! I was so nervous to leave my dog with someone other than family but Josh quickly became family for Saint. He sent constant updates with pictures and videos of Saint playing with friends and running around the yard. It helped me stay calm during the stay. I can't wait to send him back over there with his new friends. Thank you again so much Josh!”

“Monica was excellent!!! She sent pics and videos daily to put our mind at ease. Our dog was very comfortable with her. I will definitely use her again!”
