Doggy Day Care in Empire

“Did a trial run for our Yorkie, Max, with Amy today and I think he had a good time. He didn't look stressed coming home. We will definitely bring Max back for future boarding and day care. Thank you Amy for taking care of Max.”

About: I used to dog sit/cat sit and house sit for my sister constantly when I lived in North Dakota. I also had two wiener dogs growing up and have always been around animals. I had two pet rats for 3 years also and now have had a dog of my own for 3 and a half years. Hi, my name is Lex, and I work as a PE paraprofessional for Ceres Unified School District. During the school year, I work with students and enjoy being active, patient, and dependable. Since I have summers off, I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I understand how important it is for pet owners to know their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering routines, or simply providing companionship, I will make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and comfort levels, and I always strive to maintain those routines as closely as possible. Safety is my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences, feeding schedule, exercise requirements, and any special instructions provided by their owner. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and energy levels, and I believe in using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention while in my care.

“I felt at ease leaving my little baby girl with margarita! She sent me photos and kept her calm!”

“We are grateful that we have been able to depend on Allison to help with caring for our pup while we work and when we are out of town. She is very flexible when our travel times have had to change. We have a pandemic rescue that has bouts of anxiety. We appreciate that she is patient and loving with him and understands his behavior. We highly recommend her as a sitter.”

About: I have had pets all my life, caring for pregnant mama cats and dogs, as well as their babies. I own 2 small dogs myself who are very friendly and calm. I am flexible to whatever you need and require. I work part time as a substitute teacher. I choose the days I want to work, so I can be available to you majority of the time with 24 hours notice. I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. I have a fenced in yard, with space to run around in the back yard. I will likely keep your pet indoors most of the time, and can take them out for walks, the dog park and outside in the backyard to run and play.

“Jennifer and her family were fantastic! Our girl Nova had a blast running around with her dog and kids. We will be using her again in the next couple weeks as well!”

“My elderly dog Charlie spent the day with Steven and had a wonderful time. Steven took excellent care of Charlie, gave him treats, and made sure all of his needs were met. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in kind and caring hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I provide safe, reliable, and loving care for your dog like they’re my own. With over 15 years of experience, I’ve worked with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs. I’ve also rescued dogs and helped find them loving homes, giving me real hands-on experience with different temperaments and behaviors. Your dog will be in a calm, clean, and structured environment with: • A fenced yard for safe play • Daily walks and exercise • Lots of attention, love, and supervision • Experience with potty training and leash training I also have knowledge from veterinary assistant training, so I’m comfortable with medications and special care if needed. I understand how important your pet is to you, so I always keep communication open with updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is simple: To make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently an Esthetician that works from home so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pups. Plus my children and I take walks twice a day in my neighborhood. I have a fence in yard and a min dachshund to play with your furry friend. Can crate dog if needed. Dogs are allowed in my house if they are well behaved.

“Poa and her daughter were wonderful with my service dog Grady! This was my first time leaving my boy. I was relieved to see him relaxed and at ease when I picked him up. I will definitely use POA in the future and highly recommend her to all!”

About: I have had dogs of my own since I was in high school (10+ years). I have pet sat for family and friends multiple times throughout the years (both cats & dogs). I currently work from home full time so I have a very flexible schedule that would allow me to be around your loved one at all hours of the day. I have a big backyard (10,500 sqft) that is fenced all around. Your dog(s) will have ample space to run around and be free. I do not have pets of my own yet because I travel out of the country 3-6 months out of the year!

About: A genuine pet care experience focuses on heartfelt connections, understanding your pet’s unique needs, and offering loving, attentive care that feels like home for your furry companion. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to adjust my schedule and take care of your fur babies when it’s most convenient for you. We can easily coordinate on times and dates that work best. :) At home, I’d ensure pets get nutritious food, daily playtime, a clean environment and plenty of love / attention to keep them happy and healthy.

“Morgan did an amazing job watching my puppy! She kept me updated the whole time with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy was very spoiled, she even came home with the cutest bandana and a handwritten thank you note, which was such a thoughtful touch. Morgan truly went above and beyond, and it shows how much she genuinely cares. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: As a sitter/walker I combine reliability, hands-on experience, and a genuine commitment to each dog’s/cat’s individual needs. I have experience training puppies, including reinforcing basic commands, leash manners, crate training, and consistent routines that support positive behavior development. I have also worked with senior dogs and understand the additional patience, attentiveness, and comfort focused care they require. I am comfortable administering medication and following detailed care instructions to ensure pets stay healthy and safe. As a college student working part-time, I bring strong time management skills, responsibility, and dedication to every booking, treating each pet with the same level of care and consistency I would expect for my own. I am a student at Westmont College located in Montecito, CA but currently on summer break. I have a very flexible schedule and would love to fill that time enjoying time and taking care of your animals! My pets are very cared for, they are treated like family because they are. You can trust that I will give every and any animal on my care the utmost respect and love, and I will always let owners know if I notice anything out of the ordinary.

About: I’ve been a nanny and pet owner for over 15 years. Animals are a central part of my life and I’m constantly seeking ways to support the greater community. I raised a pure bread Doberman that was ACG certified. We went to the best trainers in California for 7 years. I’m a nurturer by nature and am eager to shift the perspective and community of bullied breeds. I’m currently transitioning and looking for my next full time corporate career. I’ve been a talent leader in tech for the past 8 years - taking a pause and getting into some work that fulfills me. We live in the country in Modesto with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. We’ve always had well trained animals in the house, but also love for them to feel a part of the family. We give them the best food, best care and of course the best cuddles. We’ve worked with rescues, less able animals and strict disciplined ones. We cater to whatever the animal needs most.

“Grace is fantastic with our Kona! We highly recommend her!”

“Jori was a great dog sitter for our pup. She was responsive and sent updates of our dog playing with hers. I would highly recommend her to care for your dogs and will reach out again when we need our dog to be watched.”

About: Hello! My name is Patricia and I love dogs! I have a 6-year-old Corgi, and when dogs stay at my house, they are treated as my own. We have a big fenced-in backyard, complete with a dog agility course! We love to go on walks in our neighborhood and on the Virginia Trail. Sometimes we will stop at Yogurt Mill for a pup-yo! I also have plenty of treat puzzle toys to keep your dog entertained and mentally stimulated throughout the day. I only watch dogs from one family at a time, so you know your pup will be getting lots of attention from me. REQUIREMENTS: In order to stay with us, your dog must be crate trained and must be able to demonstrate some basic obedience commands (for example: sit-stay, down-stay, place, on-leash heel, and recall). I currently work from home, so I will be home most of the day with your pup! If your dog is staying with me for a weekend, there is a good chance we will take them to a park or on a short hike. I have a fully fenced in yard and air conditioning indoors for hot days. I always provide plenty of fresh ice water, and I will always keep your pup on a leash when going for walks outside the backyard.
