Doggy Day Care in Ellijay

“Max enjoyed his time with Lena. She was very attentive to him and provided him with great care during his visit. This was his first time away from his family, so her kindness was very important. Max made a new friend with Lena's Yorkie, Freddie. Lena sent us a very nice photo of the two new friends. We will definitely contact Lena for future visits to that area. Thank you very much, Lena!”

About: Hi, I’m Maggie! I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I have lived on a farm surrounded by dogs, horses, and cats, which gave me years of hands on experience caring for animals of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. After losing my beloved German Shepherd, I began fostering others through rescues. A journey that’s been both healing and incredibly rewarding. It’s deepened my understanding of different temperaments, training needs, and the importance of patience, structure, and gentle consistency. Whether I’m boarding, house sitting, or stopping in for a visit, I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where every pet feels safe and cared for like family. I treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I am currently working almost full time. I can spend evenings with your dog. I am usually gone around 6-8 hours a day at most. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I would only take outside on leash. I have a cat. I can keep the cat separated if needed.

“Yuwadee is absolutely fantastic! My dog Athena absolutely LOVED spending the day with Yuwadee while I was at work and living with my parents. She has a big yard for dogs to run around in and plenty of space to go for walks! My dog Athena would be exhausted at the end of the day from playing and be very excited to go back! I would 100% recommend her, especially if you need someone to care for your fur baby for an 8+ hour day or overnights.”

“Took very good care of my baby. Freya came home happy and very wore out. She received a lot of attention and a lot of play time. Lynn took her to dog park. I will use Lynn again and will refer her to anyone.”

About: I have experience caring for all kinds of animals - dogs, cats, and even a chameleon! I live on a farm with my own two dogs, two cats, two cows, and a bunch of chickens. I would love to help take care of your fur babies! I do have some experience administering medication to cats and dogs. If your pet has special needs please let me know how to best care for them! I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I do have two school-age children who are home when school is out. We can chat about your needs and find what works best! For boarding at my home - I have separate front and back fenced yards for safety. My dogs are crate trained and can be kept separate from your animal(s) if needed. For visits in your home or for dog walking, your pets are my main priority. You can rest assured that I will care for your babies and your home as my own.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have always had pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I’m comfortable with dogs of any size. I have 2 dogs of my own. I’m available for visits and walks in the evenings in May. I’ll have week day and weekend availability in June and July. After July, I’ll be available mostly on weekends. I will follow any rules and routines you have set for your pet when visiting and walking your fur baby. I will make sure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured before leaving. I’m happy to send photos of pets if requested.

“Monika is a friendly and caring person that took care of our fur baby just like she was her own. She sent video updates of our pup throughout the day so we could enjoy our day away without worrying about how things were going.”

“Cooper loves daycare with Reyna and her family! Their large fenced-in yard gives him plenty of space to run and play with their sweet puppy, Maple. He loved being part of their family for the day! Reyna sent me great pictures of him zooming around the yard and relaxing near the boys while they worked on school. He came home happy, tired, and ready for a nap! We’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Superior experience! ..and communication. Plenty of area to explore and run, much better than a dog park, and typical kennel daycare/boarding. Rhett was pooped out! Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve always had dogs at home, up to three at once! Most all raised and trained from puppy stages. I had a disabled dog recently who lost usage of her back legs and was incompetent. She required lots of help and being carried around but was a sweetheart. Currently I have eight geckos as well as two snakes, a skink, two cats (mostly outdoor) and one dog. My dogs name is Luna, she’s almost two years old, deaf and mentally special but as friendly as can be! (Several rooms for separation of my dog if needed as well as my crate. So far she gets along well with others) My current weekly routine is as follows: Monday: Feed Cats and Dog x2, feed and mist geckos Tuesday: Feed cats and dog x2 Wednesday: Feed cats and dogs x2, feed and mist geckos, feed skink, feed hognose Thursday: Feed cats and dog x2 Friday: Feed cats and dog x2, feed and most geckos Saturday: Feed cats and dog x2, feed skink Sunday: Feed cats and dog x2 Feed and mist geckos Saturday I go out about every hour and a half for potty breaks. I do not have a fence but I have a large pasture as well as lots of leads. I’m willing to walk for hours with your pet on a leash! I have one friendly pup to keep yours company and I have a spare room. I have the ability to crate my dog and space for a crate for yours if provided. We go out after every food and water break, get lots of cuddles and extra play time!

“Esmeralda offered the perfect day care experience for our little morkie, Molly. We were visiting in the Blue Ridge area and had activities planned for two days that would not allow us to bring our pet along. Esmeralda's home was a peaceful retreat in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Our little morkie gets overwhelmed and stressed at boarding facilities. But she was happy and playful when I picked her up each day. Esmeralda sent updates and photos both days and was genuinely happy to see Molly each morning. We will definitely use Esmeralda again when we travel to the Blue Ridge area. We highly recommend her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. My family had 3 growing up, so I would love your trust in taking care of your fur babies! I currently am a dental hygienist, I wake up early take my dog for a walk, come home on breaks and let my dog on a walk. I like to take my dog hiking as well on the weekends! I take my dog on plenty of walks and have him on a feeding schedule. He gets plenty of attention and toys. He likes to go hiking or anywhere I go.

“Thanks for taking good care of Honey Bee.”

“Lauren was great and easy to talk to. She gave us updates throughout the day on our dog. Her set up was great and her dogs were friendly with ours. I highly recommend her anytime you need a sitter for your pup!”

About: I am an animal lover. I have pets of my own of all kinds. My kids love animals. I can give medication as I had a pet with seizures. Only dogs, will not give medicine to cats. I do have three kids. Ages 4 year old , 6 year and a 8 year old. All were raised around animals no issues. No allergies. I do have cats in home that have their own room so can easily be separated, I own two dogs but they are outside fenced in dogs. Will not interact with any animal I watch. We are looking forward to loving on your fur babies !! I am a full time mom so my schedule is very flexible. I do not have a “paying job” besides side work. I do DoorDash as well but i can set my own times! I can easily crate dogs if needed. They are more then welcomed to roam my house as well. Outside potty will be on a leash as I live close to a road.

About: My family and I have had two Huskies, one Ridgeback Mix, & a Lab/Shar Pei mix. We now currently have two, rambunctious Boston Terriers. If there’s one thing I’ve learned with these two is that family runs in fur too. The ability to provide all animals the same loving care their human family gives them, is a reflection of my own love & care for my own furry family. As I’ve discovered a deep interest in botany & herbology, I’ve applied it while baking them homemade-allergy free dog cookies! In terms of experience with pet sitting, I have had experience pet sitting for my neighbor's: two dogs, reptiles, and beta fish. I’ve also watched some cute kittens that have captured my heart, over the years. Not to mention, I have joined two friends with their pet/house sitting job adventures. On each of those occasions, I felt drawn to take more opportunities like this for myself as well.

About: Your dog will enjoy their very own private indoor kennel, complete with a cozy bed and a TV for entertainment! We even have a special door leading to their fenced-in outdoor area, so they can roam and play whenever they want. Plus, to keep you in the loop, we send updates throughout the day so you can relax, knowing your furry friend is having a great time! Your pet will have the freedom to come and go as they please through their own doggy door, which leads to a private front porch enclosed by a secure six-foot fence. This safe outdoor space allows your dog to explore and enjoy the fresh air while keeping them protected. The covered porch provides an ideal spot for your furry friend to relax and soak up the sun, making it a perfect retreat for cozy naps throughout the day. Your dog will love having their own special area to lounge and bask in the warmth! Pet owners are responsible for providing their pets with the appropriate food and any necessary medications to ensure their health and well-being. Our kennels prioritize safety above all else, which is why each dog is housed in a secure space surrounded by a privacy fence. This separation prevents any mingling between dogs, creating a calm environment that protects their individual comfort and safety, as well as the safety of our caring family. We take every precaution to create a secure and nurturing environment for all dogs in our care.
