Doggy Day Care in Florence

About: Welcome to Your Pup's Second Home Hi there! I’m Gunja, and I’d love to welcome your furry family member into our home. Here, every pup gets the love, attention, and care they truly deserve because I know how hard it is to leave your baby in someone else’s hands. We have a large, private half-acre backyard that’s perfect for dogs who love to run, sniff around, and just be dogs. Whether your pup is a sprinter or a sniffer, there’s plenty of room to explore, play, and get some fresh air. It’s a safe, enclosed space where they can roam freely while I keep a close eye on them. One of the biggest things that sets my care apart. I’m home all day, every day. Your dog won’t spend long hours alone or in a crate waiting for someone to come check in. They’ll have my full, undivided attention from morning to night. Think of it as a vacation for your pup, with a devoted human who’s always around to play, cuddle, or just sit together. Medication & Special Needs: I’m fully comfortable administering oral medications, supplements, and following specific care routines. If your dog has dietary restrictions, health conditions, or a particular schedule they thrive on, I’ll follow it to the letter. Every dog is different, and I take those differences seriously. I also have a special place in my heart for senior dogs. Older pups need a little extra patience, and gentleness. Slow walks, cozy resting spots, careful monitoring is top priority here. Your senior baby is in good hands here. Our sweet Maltese, Milo, is the friendliest little guy you’ll ever meet. He loves playing with other dogs and has a way of making every new visitor feel right at home almost instantly. What You Can Expect • 📸 Regular photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing • Consistent feeding and routine based on your schedule, not mine • A calm, quiet home environment. No chaos, no stress • Lots of cuddles, belly rubs, and genuine affection • Open communication with you throughout the entire stay 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 I truly believe that dogs aren’t just pets. They’re family. Trusting someone with your dog is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly. Whether it’s a weekend stay or a longer visit, your pup will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them! Being a stay-at-home-dog mom helps so much. Being able to spend all my time with my little pup is so fulfilling. I have all my time to devote to your little furry child and keep them happy and safe while they're away from home and their warmth. We have a pretty comfortable house with no restrictions for your pup. There is a massive backyard that they can have a great time getting their exercise or simply getting their tan on. Of course, they will get their regular walks and any enrichment activity they'd get at home. Milo (our pup) and I, are homebodies for the most part. We're always home to give 100% of our time and care to your pup

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t live without them. My specialty is caring for senior (7+yrs old) dogs but I love all ages. I’m currently retired and very flexible with scheduling. I have volunteered regularly at a senior dog sanctuary for 4 years to onboard and train new volunteers. I have a fenced yard and only one small dog friendly Yorkie in residence. I used to work for a Christian ministry so very trustworthy.

“I could tell Odie was very comfortable and loved being at Susan’s for doggy day care after the first day. He was happy at pick up and the next day he jumped out the car when I dropped him off. Susan takes great care of Odie and I know he gets lots of loving and exercise! Naps in the car on the way home. Will definitely book with Susan again.”

“She was very kind and accommodating with both pick up and drop off. She also gave very good photos texted to us during our pup's stay that me and my wife loved. I wish I could rate her higher I would definitely be using her services again the next time I need my pup looked after.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs for friends and family, including walks, feeding, and playtime. As a mom, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I keep you updated, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your pet gets the best care every time. As a full-time student and stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy getting outside. I’d love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs and cats I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.

“Trey was so great with my fur baby! I contacted him on short notice and he responded quickly. Great communication throughout the day. My girl had a blast with Trey and the other dogs....will definitely call him again.”

About: Hello, my name is Lynn P. I am a mother with 2 dogs. I have a 7-year-old jack Russell terrier his name is Max. And I also have a 3-year-old Doberman name is Apollo. They're both very calm and loved and well behaved and loves to meet new friends to hang out with. Apollo and Max sure knows how to welcome new dogs in the house they're both very gentle and playful at the same time. I work from home most of my time through the week. So, they will get lots of attention throughout the days. I usually take the boys out 3x a day to stretch out their legs and burn off some energy. Don't worry your dogs will get the same love as my own dogs. I will care for your pets and make sure they are comfortable and safe. They will get more attention than my own dog probably. Just kidding. Not only you will gain my trust with your family dog, but your dog will also make new friends. Currently working from home most of the time of the week. I am open for new guest to join the club. I have two dogs myself and my daughter loves keeping them entertain. I have a balcony where they can go out to sunbathe both my dogs love doing that during the afternoon. But they don’t use it to pee or poop it’s only for relaxing if they want fresh air. I also take the boys out in the morning and afternoon and one last walk before bedtime. My boys get 2 meals a day along with their vitamins. And after a nice walk they will be reward for dog dental treat.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for quite a while! It started with trick training which turned into completely 6 months at a dog training school and earning a certificate in canine training and behavioral specialist. I am confident in handling and caring for the most difficult pups! From nervous and anxious dogs to high energy working dogs, I am willing to create a safe and effective boarding/care experience for them. My whole life revolves around my dogs so your pups will be loved and cared for during their stay. I have a schedule that allows me to fit any pet care needs. My dogs get tons of outside times, walks, and potty breaks throughout the day so whatever plan your pup needs we can accommodate! I am flexible on creating a system that works best for you pets. I can house dogs that are not good in crates and well as dogs that need to be crated. I have pet cameras throughout the home so I can keep watch at all times! We can come up with a system that works best for you pets! Whether that be multiple walks per day or a special feeding plan!

“They took such great care of my pup! Doggo loved them”

“Nicole was very good. Our girls had fun as we saw from the pictures and videos. Very much appreciated the last minute accomodations! We would definitely use Nicole again!”

“I was very lucky to find Katrina, who sat for my dog on very short notice. I even needed a couple extra hours, and she graciously kept her for longer than agreed upon, which I am very grateful for! She responded very quickly to all communications including initial sitting request, and seems like a very nice and straightforward person... she gave me every reason to highly recommend! My dog was very calm and relaxed when I picked her up as well.”

About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!

“Billy was great with our dog. Was awesome with updating us how he was doing during his stay. we appreciate him being an amazing sitter for our baby! And also not to mention going beyond with caring for Dolemite. We will definitely be going back to him when we come back through Texas. Love Billy and also Dolemite made a life time friend with Billy”

About: I have always had pets in my life, mostly dogs. Life would be too lonely without a furry friend to cuddle. I have taken care of our dogs, cats, hamsters, and guinea pigs over the many years. We homeschool so our schedule is quite flexible and we spend lots of time at home or on hikes in the area. Sunday and Tuesday mornings we often have commitments but aren't gone more than 4 hours total. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog. We have one cat as well who is nervous around our dog so she stays behind a closed door in our master suite. My kids also have a guinea pig which stays in a cage in their room and your dog won't have access to. We have tile floors and pup friendly furniture.

“Erin was very accommodating with my schedule, her place is spacious, dog friendly & comfortable. She took great care of my dog and kept me informed.”

Rebecca O.

“Great experience with Siva. It was our first time leave Jerry alone and Siva handled him very carefully. Even though Jerry was a mess for the first couple hours since he is a puppy, he was handled very expertly. It also helped that Siva had two other older dogs who helped calm Jerry down and were there to play with him. Would definitely recommend to book with him.”

About: I've been a dog mom to multiple pups over the years. Plenty of time spoiling them and taking them out on adventures. Sadie and I love hiking and kayaking, or just strolling through the neighborhood. I currently work from home and make my own schedule, so I can easily adjust it to your needs. This leaves plenty of room to hang with my sweet dog and hopefully yours as well. I have a fenced yard and a sweet shorkie that would love play time with your sweet dog. I can keep them separated or allow them to play depending on your comfort level.

“Noodles had so much fun playing at Josh’s house! Communication was great and I always felt super comfortable. Loved getting the report card of how she did with lots more pics!”
