Doggy Day Care in Fort Valley

About: I’ve had pets my whole life! I’m experienced with cats (including neonatal kittens), dogs, amphibians, reptiles, rodents, lagomorphs, arthropods and freshwater fish. Whether your dog is high energy or a couch potato, I am happy and able to meet their unique needs! I’m a full time stay at home mom to two dogs, a hamster, a blue tongue skink and even a human child. I am always available to tend to your pets needs. I can accommodate any requests surrounding caring for your pet in your home. If you’d prefer to bring them to me, they will be given around the clock care and attention with frequent updates. If your pet is not dog-friendly, they will be kept in their own separate room away from my dogs. If they are dog friendly, they are welcome to play with the whole family!

About: I have 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals and have worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Families, friends, and neighbors consistently trust me to provide dependable and attentive care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining structured daily routines. In addition to dogs and cats, I am also comfortable caring for reptiles and other small animals. I understand the importance of proper habitat maintenance, feeding schedules, and careful handling to ensure their health and safety. I have experience with puppies, high-energy dogs, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or reassurance. I prioritize consistency, safety, and clear communication, and I always provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. Every pet in my care is treated with respect, attentiveness, and genuine love. I have open availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including boarding, drop-ins, and extended stays. I am available weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I can adjust to your pet’s established routine to ensure consistency and comfort. My priority is providing dependable care and being accessible when my clients need support. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard as well as a secure outdoor fenced playpen area to allow for safe exercise and supervised outdoor time. Inside the home, pets are monitored closely and kept in a clean, structured environment. I am able to crate if requested and will always follow your specific instructions regarding routines, feeding, and supervision. I focus on creating a calm, secure, and stress-free environment so your pet feels comfortable and cared for at all times.

“Valerie to the rescue again! Excellent sitter, super flexible and great communication. We were on our way for a quick trip to Atlanta and decided to check the fair on our way and Valerie was able to help us with our dog. Second time he has stayed with her and her family when we come to Georgia. Thank you Valerie!”

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, loving animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve had dogs my entire life—they’ve never been “just pets,” but true members of the family. Creating a safe, loving, and happy environment for them brings me so much joy. I’m home during the day, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. It would truly be our pleasure to welcome your furry family member into our home and treat them like one of our own while you’re away. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give your pet consistent attention, plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love. I enjoy a peaceful home environment, which makes it easy to provide a calm, comforting space for pets to feel safe and relaxed. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or giving a little extra TLC, I’m able to be fully present and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is closely supervised to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. Inside, my home is a calm and welcoming environment where animals are truly treated like part of the family. I have one large, friendly dog who enjoys the company of other pets and helps create a playful atmosphere. I provide care where your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and personalized care in a safe and cozy setting.

“Lindsey did an amazing job with my two labradors! I was very nervous about needing to leave them with a stranger for several days and did not want them left in a cage all day. Lindsey communicated closely with me and sent pictures of the dogs and her family interacting a several times a day. The day care was for three days and the pups were very excited to see Lindsey. I will have them stay with Lindsey again as future travel needs arise.”

About: Hello! I am the owner and operator of Mindful Mutts LLC, a dog training business that serves Middle Georgia. In addition to my dog training services, I also routinely offer the pet care services listed below. For more information on our training programs please visit: MINDFULMUTTSDOGTRAINING . COM SERVICES AVAILABLE: Subject to Change + DAY CARE; Your pet spends the day in my home but returns home with you for the evening. + BOARDING; Your pet lives in my home with me while you are away. They get all the benefits of boarding at a facility, but with a personalized touch in the comfort of a home and the experience of a professional dog trainer. * The following services may be offered on a case-by-case basis. Please contact for more information. + DOG WALKING; 30 or 60 minutes + DROP IN VISITS; 30 or 60 minutes (Typically booked for 1-2 visits daily, great option for cats!) IMPORTANT: All pets MUST be up to date on their required vaccinations. Proof of vaccination should be provided prior to service administration. All boarding/daycare pets should be able to sleep in either a crate, or pen. ♡ PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ME ABOUT DOG TRAINING 🐶 ♡ 🐾 ABOUT MY SERVICES + DAYCARE & BOARDING A great way to enrich your pet's life while you are away at work or on a trip. You may either drop your pet off or request transportation to and from my home ($0.75/mile). Get ready to set your dog up for a fun, structured and safe stay full of socializing, relaxing, playing and more! Prior to your pet's first day with me, we typically schedule a meet and greet/evaluation. This allows me to asses what types of dogs yours will best get along with, if any, while also gathering information on how best prepare my home for their stay. Each visit is catered to your pet's individual needs. One of the main benefits my daycare/boarding program is the expertise and flexibility I bring to the table. Private daycare allows me to manage pets that may not normally be suited for your regular daycare or boarding facilities. These reasons can include behavioral issues, anxiety, medical conditions, exercise requirements, etc., many of which I am equipped to handle. You can expect play groups to be strategically picked to best benefit your dog. Activities can include puzzle toys, nose games, mental enrichment, fetch, flirt pole play, and much more. All pups will take breaks that allow them to decompress in-between playtimes. This is esential for maintaining the mental and physical wellbeing of your dog. For this reason, your pet should be able to rest safely in either an enclosed space, large pen, or crate. At night, and meal times, this also allows for your pet to be safely contained or in case I run any short errands. A BLURB ABOUT ME: I am the owner of Mindful Mutts LLC, a dog training business that offers group classes at Pet Supplies Plus in Macon, Private Lessons, Day Training and Boarding and Training. After spending many years learning from and mentoring under several other trainers, I found my passion in building, strengthening, and repairing the relationships between man and canine. Previously, I have worked in veterinary clinics, pet stores, and boarding facilities gaining valuable experience and knowledge in the animal industry. In addition to dog training, I am currently working towards completing my Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering. Lastly, but not least, I am the proud mother of a beautiful little girl who absolutely lights up my life. As for your pets, I have experience housing and caring for all sorts of fuzzy and nonfuzzy friends. I currently own 3 lovely dogs across a range of ages and a mischievous male cat. I have previously owned fish, amphibians, ferrets, rats, bunnies, and several other species. That being said, while this IS a dog oriented service app, I do often welcome the needs of other animals as well.

About: I have had a couple of dogs in my lifetime and have realized that I love animals as if they were my own children. I can’t wait to watch your babies! I am currently a stay at home mom to my disabled son and daughter so I have plenty of time on my hands. I would love to fit your pets into my everyday life. I have a fenced in decent sized yard so there will be plenty of room for your babies to roam around instead of having to be on a leash. I do not kennel dogs in my home. They have free roam of my house.
