Doggy Day Care in Falling Waters

“Jaclyn always does a great job taking care of Charlie. Provides an update mid-day and sometimes sends him home with a surprise! We love knowing that he loves to visit her home.”

Shannon H.

“I plan on requesting daycare from Charlie again. The pick yard and dogs to play with is a plus. I'm confident that Sadie will be as well cared for as she was. Charlie was flexible when I had to change my schedule”

“Wonderful. Dave not only took care of my dog but helped me by picking Junior up and dropping him off. Junior was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Dave to help you with doggy day care or longer stays if needed.”

“Lejune & Mike were amazing. Our puppies came home so happy and worn out from all of the playing. I was nervous about dropping them off however Lejune eased my worries! She was very thorough with her questions regarding how to care for our babies. They will definitely be going back.”

“Sheryl was fantastic with Ladybug! I didn't worry for a second, she is such a warm and welcoming person. Ladybug had three days of doggie daycare and when I dropped her off, it was clear that Ladybug enjoyed her time at Sheryl's house.”

About: I wholeheartedly appreciate integrity, transparency, and respect - trusting someone with your family is not something to take lightly in today's world! Here’s a quick rundown on me to help YOU decide if/how I'm a good a fit for your fur family! I spent 5 yrs on the United States Humane Society’s animal rescue team & district leader programs (experience with a variety of topical and intramuscular medications, ages, sizes and temperaments, Dog First Aid/CPR certified, catered to special needs, coordinated canine engagement and enrichment, it was an incredible chapter of my life!). I’ve also spent 5 yrs as volunteer Fire/EMS and then started a holistic nutrition & natural health practice, which all together has given me the experience & afforded me more time with one of the things I cherish most: DOGS. They’re the most selfless animals I’ve loved learning how to communicate with and being there to love if/when you can’t. I’m 31 yo with 2 dogs of our own and love making them feel like family! I’d love to help take care of your fur babies while you’re away! My hope is you can rest easy knowing your pet and home are in loving, knowledgeable hands while you’re away. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME - SAFETY: I’ve learned to never get complacent & reasonably prioritize situational awareness for your pets like I would my own family (strangers, locking doors, choking hazards, health emergencies, etc). LOVE: dogs make our days so much better and I love to fill their day(s) with the joy, laughter, and belly rubs they deserve! INTEGRITY: I say what I mean and I do what I say! Trust & transparency are hard bridges to build back once burnt so with clear expectations set, your dog(s) will be cared for exactly the way you ask them to be no matter how simple or complex their routine may be (with lots of photos/videos along the way!). WHAT I’D LOVE FROM YOU - COMMUNICATION: every dog is different with unique needs so please never hesitate to promptly specify what your dog(s) need more/less of! OBEDIENCE: I never expect perfect obedience!! But I do believe manners are important. I've been (unintentionally) injured, seen dogs damage property, and believe setting boundaries (lovingly) is important if we want to coexist! With the HSUS, I was taught how to train basic obedience using Pavlovian pairing/classical conditioning techniques (ex: rewarding for what’s acceptable, creating opportunities to praise, replacing minimal physical correction with verbal correction for desired outcome, etc) and witnessed all breeds learn better behaviors with consistent guidelines. However I only offer training and will never praise or correct behavior unless asked. Otherwise, the only behavior I'll stop is any behavior that harms your pet(s), people, or property. Services: 🏠 DAYCARE/OVERNIGHT: a fun way for me to supervise your pup while they socialize and play at home away from home! We’re grateful to have hvac, a fenced yard, clean carbon filtered water, and plenty of antlers to share. We love welcoming 1 dog to stay (and snuggle) with us and our crew (2 female dogs, 1 toddler) where they’ll get greeted with belly rubs over coffee and talked to like family throughout the day! Plenty of yard to roam, a dedicated den to make their own (toys, beds, blankets, etc), and way more opportunity to go potty/exert energy than 2-3 drop-ins. You pack the food and maybe their favorite treats, I’ll make sure they feel right at home with daily pictures/videos throughout the stay! Daycare: $60/daily | Overnight: $70/daily Availability: Monday-Sunday 🦮 DROP-INS/DOG WALKS: they’re essentially the same service (same price!)! In theory, “drop-ins” are potty breaks/playtime for dogs with fenced in yards, large open properties, dogs who spend most of their time inside, or need more than a walk… while “dog walks” are leashed walks around your neighborhood. In my book, they both include lots of belly rubs, playtime, poop pickup, cleaned dog bowls/fresh water, meals & meds, and tons of time outdoors. 1-3 dogs $25 | 3+ dogs $30 Availability: Monday-Sunday HOUSESITTING: I no longer offer “overnight” housesitting but I do as many visits as you’d like, so your pups still enjoy steady company in the comfort of home sweet home. Always includes walks or potty breaks daily, meals & meds, playtime & exercise, lots of cuddles for dogs who’d rather snuggle than play, and light tidying up (clean dog bowls, poop pickup, quick sweep) so you come home to your space the way you left it. See drop-in/dog walk pricing. CAT CARE: more than willing to help with cat care for clients already paying for dog care (no cat-only services). Includes meals & meds, snuggles, playtime, and cat litter. On average its only an extra $5-15 total (depending on duration of stay). A note on distance/radius: please keep in mind Rover takes 20% of my rate, so in order to make a profit after gas and Rover fees, I only offer dog walks within a certain radius. Please touch base with any Qs! I'd love to help! WARNING: malicious inquiries have definitely come through so we'll schedule a free 20-30 minutes together beforehand! $20 OFF for first time clients when you use Danika 20 at rover.com/sit/danikalauren $20 OFF when you refer a neighbor/friend who books any service. Rover asks, “describe a typical visit.” A worn out dog is a happy dog! Walking is such a great opportunity to train & reinforce commands together too. But potty breaks, a game of fetch, tug, toys that release treats, ropes, stuffed animals, a local park, or snugglin on the couch can be just as interactive! I also know the stress that comes with living in various types of locations: our own dogs have lived on a busy road and a wide open farm. While I'm so proud of how obedient they've been off leash all these years, I know recall takes time to train so I’m more than willing to entertain your dog(s) on leash or in your yard. I understand they're domesticated animals that depend on us to supervise them! The least intimidating introductions, positive body language, smiles, belly rubs, and sticking to routines you've already built for them to make them feel as comfortable as possible!

“Stephanie was such an attentive caretaker! Thanks for all the pictures by the way. Hazel loved it at your place, with all the toys and the pool, and places to play. It was very good for her to make friends and play with your dog Ellie as well! Thanks for being such a great dog sitter.”

Marshall J A.

“We knew the minute Heidi met us at the door for our Meet and Greet with Tux, our 13-year old Bichon-Poodle, that we had found the perfect sitter. Tux felt right at home wagging his tail at her kids and Moochie, her Golden Retriever. He sniffed around, as all dogs do, and made his way outside to explore in their fenced-in backyard. We had total peace of mind leaving Tux in her care. She updated us throughout the day with pictures of the kids snuggling and playing with him. We will look no where else when we need someone to care for Tux. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to find the sweetest caregiver for your beloved pets.”

About: since I was a child I have had the fortune to live with cats and dogs, currently with my family, we have in our native country a herd of 10 rescued animals, this has taught us how to handle different processes of adaptation and meet diferet needs. For me and my family each of the animals are a fundamental part of our family, always loved and treated with respect. This love for animals has led me to care for them professionally for over 15 years. giving me experience in caring for puppies, elderly animals and animals with special needs. My husband and I have very flexible schedules, usually there is always someone at home to take care of our guests. Our cat Gordo is an incredible host, he loves to play and share his large collection of toys and treats. Our apartment is adapted for our cat and guests to have a safe and fun time. We have a good-sized cat tree and a two hammocks in the window at a safe height. The climbing places are not too high and are easily accessible. The plants we have at home are not toxic, however, they are out of reach. Our windows have exterior screens, but we don't usually open them all at the same time.

“First off, Nadia is the sweetest! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and by speaking with her you learn she has our dog’s best interest at heart. We wanted daycare on days we both worked overnight and Nadia is very flexible. This was Daisy first ever day/time away from us and we woke up to so many updates and pictures….not sure how we got so lucky.”

“Rosa did an excellent job taking care of my boy, she took him outside on plenty of walks, fed him the exact right amount, and sent me pictures throughout the day! I would highly recommend her to anybody who needs care for their pet.”

About: I have been raised around and with animals my entire life. From horses and birds all the way to reptiles, dogs and cats! That produced a deep love and passion for all animals! I care for them as my own! I would love the chance to love and care for yours :). I am currently a college student online, resulting in a completely open schedule! I am available for overnight boarding, day boarding, and drop in visits! I have two completely loving pups who are great with other dogs! They go on long walks and park visits every day! This would be great in providing another form of comfort, and a sense of joy to your fur baby!

About: As a work-from-home father, my flexible schedule accommodates needy pups or cats requiring frequent visits or overnight care. I currently have 2 small dogs and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. If you live in this area, I'm here for you! I also run (slowly) so if you have a dog that wants to run off energy for a few miles, I'm in! I work from home with minimal meetings (about 5 hours/week.) so I can make frequent visits during the day or even take my computer over to your place if you have good wi-fi! I have a fenced-in backyard of about 3/4 an acre. My two small dogs are friendly and we are glad to introduce them if this interests you and your dog. Our dogs have free run of the house and sleep on the bed.

“Tux has always been anxious when left behind, but did very well with Emily all day. She was very attentive to his needs and he got along well with her other daycare pup. She sent numerous pictures and answered my texts right away when I checked in on him. She asked permission to take him on a short ride in her car, which I granted since he loves car rides and hates being left behind. I will definitely book with her again. Thanks, Emily, for taking such great care of our boy.”
