Doggy Day Care in Elon

“My mini poodle has separation anxiety and Sarah and her husband took great of him. I could tell by the picture of him he was relaxed and felt safe. I can't wait to use Sarah again and recommend that others do the same if you are seeking a warm and kind environment for your babies!”

Kendra C.

“Our experience with Kenan was just what we needed. We have a highly anxious rescue boy with severe separation anxiety, yet we knew from the moment we met Kenan that our dog was in good hands. Kenan greeted Hank (our dog) by sitting on the ground and allowing Hank to see that he was safe. Kenan also took Hank and his new friend, Paco (another dog) on a long walk on their beautiful farm, and knew when it was time to provide some down time. Hank came home happy and exhausted, and he will undoubtedly be returning to the farm!”

“Loki's been such a happy little dude since starting daycare with Monica and Freddy! They send photos and updates throughout the day and are extremely communicative the whole time. I couldn't be more grateful!”

Skylar B.

“Vanessa allowed my puppy to feel right at home during his week long stay. She took many pictures and is very knowledgable and responsive.”

Kyle H.

“I just want to say how amazing the customer service is. I’ve booked with Grace about three times now — the most recent being an unexpected emergency that she supported me through by watching my puppy for few hours, in spite of being fully booked. Please book with her if you’re considering it! She has always been extremely sweet to my little puppy!”

India J.

“Thanks Debbie for taking really great care of my sweetie! With him having separation anxiety I appreciate the pictures and special attention to make him feel comfortable.”

Kendra C.

“Erin is very responsive, flexible about timing for drop-off and pick-up and I can tell she loves doggies! She stayed in contact with me throughout Milly's stay to let me know how she was doing! Large fenced in back yard for the pups to run and play! When I picked Milly up, I could tell she had a great time (even slept the three hours home)! I will definitely be using Erin in the future when we travel to Elon to visit my daughter and would recommend her to others staying in the area! Thank again Erin!!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my active lifestyle, genuine love for dogs, and commitment to their well-being. Whether your pup needs a relaxed walk or an energy-burning run, I tailor each outing to their unique needs. I don’t just show up—I show up with energy, care, and attention. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved every step of the way. I work remotely with a flexible work schedule. I’m available Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Sundays. Evenings walks/care are easiest to work into my schedule, but with one day notice, I’m also happy to do mornings and afternoons. I live in a neighborhood with tons of side-walk walking spaces and plenty of neighborhood kids who love giving pets as well. I’m cognizant of hot pavement for dog walks in the summer months.

About: I am not just a pet sitter I am a dog lover with years of experience and a true passion for animals. For the past 15 years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and spent 6 of those years as a dedicated dog owner and breeder. I’ve worked with everything from playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs, and I know how to make each one feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Our home is clean, calm, and smoke-free, and it’s filled with the kind of energy dogs love. My twin teenage boys are gentle, active, and amazing with animals and love to assist me as I supervise. They enjoy walking, playing, and cuddling with our dog guests, and they’ve grown up knowing how to treat animals with kindness and respect. I also offer crate-free care and light bathing upon request. I have experience with disabled dogs and older pups who need a little extra patience and care. Whether it’s giving meds, helping with mobility, or just making sure your dog feels at home, we pay attention to every detail. I believe every dog is unique and here to meet them where they are whether that means outdoor play, quiet snuggles, or sticking to a specific routine. When your dog stays with me, you can count on love, safety, and regular updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I truly treat your pup like one of my own. Pet care is part of my everyday life. Your dog will get constant love, playtime, and companionship in our clean, non-smoking, crate-free options available. I follow your pup’s routine, provide lots of cuddles, and send regular photo and video updates. Just a heads up most dogs miss me when they leave, and I miss them too! When a dog stays in our home, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and non-smoking environment with plenty of love, attention, and structure. Your dog will have access to cozy indoor spaces and supervised outdoor time for fresh air, play, and potty breaks. I stick closely to your pet’s routine mealtimes, walks, play, and rest so they feel secure and settled. Whether your dog enjoys a game of fetch, lounging on a soft blanket, or taking calm strolls around the neighborhood, I meet them where they are. Our twin teenage boys are always happy to help and bring gentle energy and fun. We give lots of cuddles, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. We also offer crate-free care unless otherwise requested, and are happy to accommodate special diets, medications, or mobility needs. You can expect frequent updates, photos, and open communication while your pet is in our care. We know how important it is to feel connected and confident while you’re away.

“My dog Marlee as timid as she is, went right in the front door. Before I left she was wagging her tail, shortly after meeting the other pups. It was great knowing Marlee was in a good home environment and the large fenced in back yard option. Although they had construction going on, I felt like Marlee had plenty space to roam. If I’m ever back in this area again I would definitely trust them with my Marlee again.”

“This is the first time Amina babysat my shepherd-husky, Lily. She took excellent care of her! She even carried her down the stairs because Lily had only walked downstairs once before. She sent pictures including one with her and Lily. Lily looked very happy. Amina was great on keeping me updated on how Lily was doing. I will definitely use Amina again!!!”

About: I'm your purr-fect pet sitter, dedicated to caring for both your little and big fur babies! Pet sitting is a passion of mine that I thoroughly enjoy and love. Each pet brings its own unique personality into my life, and I cherish the bond that forms, like gaining a new bestie with every visit! Throughout college, I supported myself by pet sitting for coworkers and friends, treating each furry baby with the same love and attention I would give to a child. You can trust that your beloved pets will be in excellent hands under my care! I'm open to caring for all dogs and cats, catering to their individual needs and preferences. Whether they love car rides, walk, play with chew toys, or snuggle up for some quality time, I'm here to provide the care and companionship they deserve. Let's make every moment together a tail-wagging, purr-fectly delightful experience! I currently work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule to care for your fur baby when needed. I go for walks throughout the day during my lunch and 15-minute breaks. I live in a safe apartment complex that has a designated area for your pet to run and play. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule and ensure clean, fresh water is always available. IF grooming needs are needed, I love to offer paw-spa days :) Most importantly, spending quality time, offering love, attention, and affection is my favorite part of having a furry friend! Whether in your home or my home, I provide attentive and responsible care tailored to the specific needs of your pet and the situation!

About: Hey my name is Stephanie I have grownup around all types of animal and I love all types of animals. I know how to take good care of dogs and cat as I grew up watching and learning from my mom how worked at a animals shelter. I am willing to work out time that are need. At the moment I’m in college but my time is flexible. I’ve been working for McDonald’s for I’m looking for a new job with a better atmosphere so I’m making some extra money by helping people with there animals. Like I said I am in college but my time is flexible since I’m an online student. I don’t mind working out whatever u need. I follow any instructions given to me and keep an eye out for anything that may be problems. I have given my animals med and other clients.

About: I've been working with dogs since childhood - my parents raised Pekingese & Dobermans. Even at 8 years old, I helped mama dogs birth their pups. My schoolmates thought it was gross, most adults thought it was weird, but I thought it was super cool to be a part of bringing life into the world through adorable little squeaking pups. Even though we were very ethical & loving with our pups, many backyard breeders are not, so I no longer agree with that. But as an adult, I fell in love with rescues & adopted a few over the years. Then I decided I wanted to be more involved with Rescues. So... I became a Foster Parent, assisted Black Dog Rescue, & was an integral part of Cooper's Companions Animal Rescue in Colorado before moving to NC. I usually ended up fostering unadoptable dogs & working with them extensively until they became adoptable. Then followed up with their new pet parents to help ensure success & making it stick. My specialty is working with fearful dogs, teaching pet owners how to get the behavior they want from their pet, leash training, & training dogs to walk on a treadmill. We have 2 little dogs who had a big 'sister' for many years, so all size dogs are welcome; Both of our pups are super dog-friendly. One of them loves to play with other dogs, and the other will play sometimes, but can be a bit of a snob. We want all dogs to enjoy staying with us, but... we won't tolerate a 'truly' aggressive dog in our home. My dogs don't attack other dogs, so should either of my dogs be attacked or if a human is bitten, the offender will be separated & crated inside, or placed in our separately fenced kennel area outside (only if you prefer) for the remainder of their stay. Any issues will be discussed with the dog owner to establish their preference in this regard. Otherwise, we'll shower your fur baby with love & attention so you won't have to worry about them when you're away. Please note: ***We will only board dogs which are spayed or neutered.*** If they are not spayed/neutered, we will be happy to do drop in or house-sitting care, but we will not be able to host in our own home. P.S. Rover says my response rate is 50%, but that's only because when I've been looking for a sitter for my own dogs and someone tells me in a message that they are unavailable, I don't usually respond. I just keep looking for an available sitter, so the software assumes I have a low response rate. 🙄 I work from home, so I'm almost always available unless we're on vacation or if in the event that I have to go on a business trip. We have a fenced in yard for your pup to play in. The previous home owners put in a separate fenced kennel, so that's an available option in case you prefer your dog to be separated. It's unusual, but some people do prefer that. We almost never use it, though.

About: I’ve watched after many dogs, cats, and even bunnies of all ages since I was 12. While neighbors would go on vacation, they would rely on me to go over to their houses at least 3 times a day. I have three dogs myself and have been on ROVER for over a year. Usually my dad will come with me for meet and greets/first visits. Having three dogs myself, pet care is a big part of my daily routine! I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give plenty of time and attention to your dog(s). Walks, playtime, and making sure everyone is comfortable are priorities for me every stay. My family has a fenced-in side yard where dogs can safely play, and I also have three dogs of my own who love meeting new friends. If needed, I have multiple large kennels for crating to keep everything safe and organized. I make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for while they’re here!

About: My name is Erin and I've been In the dog industry for over 18 years. I'm a Certified professional dog trainer and also pet first aid and CPR certified. I currently own my own company training. I graduated from National K9 school for Dog trainers in 2016 and have done internships across the country. I've had dogs my entire life but really got involved with them after having cancer when I was 13, during that time I couldn't be around humans because of how lowered my immune system was, so I spend alot of time with therapy dogs. In a way, dogs saved my life and kept my spirits up during a very hard time in my life, and now I plan to dedicate my time to making every dog I come across happy! I personally have 2 dogs. My oldest is an Australian shepherd mix named Dodge who is almost 11, And Rebel is a Belgian Malinois who just turned 8! My whole life is dogs and has been for as long as I can remember. I have a very active dog myself and I know what a challenge it can be sometimes. I'm canine CPR and first aid certified with many refrences both personal and professional. Dogs are never left unattended and are usually double leashed when possible.

About: I prioritize every dog’s well-being above all else. With hands-on experience in puppy training—from basic commands to leash manners—and a knack for offering gentle, attentive care to seniors, I’m ready to handle every pup’s unique needs. Whether they’re bursting with energy or need a little extra TLC in their golden years, I ensure consistent routines, engaging activities, and plenty of love and affection. I incorporate pet care into my daily and weekly routines, always with my friendly Goldendoodle Marty by my side! We schedule consistent walks, feedings, and play sessions to keep him active, happy, and well-cared for and I will do the same for your pups as well. I offer flexible care options—either in my safe, pet-friendly home or in yours. At my place, dogs can enjoy a spacious yard and fun playtime with my friendly Goldendoodle, Marty or solo. When I visit a client’s home, I stick to your pet’s usual routine, ensuring minimal disruption and plenty of one-on-one attention.

“Sierra was great with Copper and very communicative. We are so glad our little guy got to spend the day with her and her girls. We highly recommend booking with Sierra for a guaranteed happy pup!”
