Doggy Day Care Freeman

About: I’ve been around working dogs most of my life, breeding and raising high-drive dogs and learning how to properly handle different personalities and temperaments. I’ve worked with trainers across the country and have experience with obedience, structure, play, confidence building, and understanding dogs on more than just a basic level. Whether it’s a high-energy working dog or a laid-back family pet, I focus on making dogs feel comfortable, exercised, and cared for like they’re my own. I work with dogs full-time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, structure, and hands-on care throughout the day — not just quick check-ins. I have crates available in multiple sizes, four outdoor runs, and a fully fenced yard to give dogs plenty of safe space and exercise. I also have a very social, well-mannered dog that can interact and play with client dogs if wanted. If preferred, I can also easily keep dogs completely separate thanks to how my setup is designed — whatever makes the owner most comfortable.

“Kourtney and her husband were the perfect first daycare for my puppy. Kourtney was attentive to all of my requests and my puppies schedule. She even spent time training Minnow during her lunch. She went above and beyond to teach her leash walking as well! I really appreciated the way they treated my puppy and how friendly they were to me. Kourtney was thorough with updates and report cards. We had a great experience.”

About: While I’m new to caring for others’ dogs, I’m an experienced dog owner. I’ll provide the same attentive, loving care I expect for my own. I work from home from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., so morning drop-offs must be before 7:00 a.m. This gives your dog plenty of time to settle in, get comfortable, and enjoy at least 45 minutes of playtime before I start my workday. Exceptions can be made in certain circumstances. I am off on weekends. My work schedule allows me plenty of flexibility for potty breaks, attention, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. Because I do work from home, dogs staying with me should also be comfortable relaxing independently while I’m in meetings or focused on work. They’ll never be short on attention—they just need to be happy hanging out while I get some work done too! Your dog’s safety is my top priority. My home provides a calm, comfortable environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. I only accept small, potty-trained dogs with no history of aggression or resource guarding to help keep everyone safe and comfortable. I have a fully fenced yard for potty breaks, fresh air, and supervised playtime. Dogs are never left outside unattended—I will always be outside with them. I also closely supervise interactions between dogs, especially during meals, treats, and playtime. Since I work from home, I’m here throughout the day to provide regular potty breaks, attention, and supervision. My goal is for you to feel confident that your dog is safe, secure, and well cared for while staying in my home.

“Stella really seems to enjoy her stays with you guys!! Great pictures 🐾🩷🏈”

About: Ive been doing Rover now for almost 2 years and it has brought me so much joy and new friends! I worked a summer at kc zoo and it was the most fun job I have ever had. I've had dogs and cats my whole life. Also around horses from my uncle. I have adopted all of my animals from shelters. I love my dogs and cats like they are family. I have a teenage son I have to keep out of petco or any other animal place otherwise he wants to bring all the animals home, joking but not completely untrue. It's how we ended up with our Kitty Maisey. We even took care of the class's bearded dragon over spring break during Covid. He will come along on visits if available as he is the animal whisperer and wants to be a vet. Our 2 dogs are Dottie (our adopted covid pointer mix pup who is the sweetest girl and loves to have visitors to play with), and Marley who is our very sweet, laid back senior dog. Both our pups were rescues. Marley is afraid of thunderstorms and fireworks so we sre familliar with giving medications and making dogs feel safe and comfortable. Dottie is allergic to something during the late summer and September month and takes medicine for that allergy at that time. We believe in treats but only rawhide free and dental bones. Please bring your own food and treats and let me know if you prefer not to share our treats. We also have 2 cats that are used to dogs and in fact think that each dog is their mommy since we got them as kittens and have an attachment to their respective dog mommy. You will even find cats and dogs snuggling together on the bed. Or Moose playing with Dottie in his tunnel. I have had animals with special needs from a diabetic cat that I gave insulin injections to treating animals with special needs. I live right down the street from a great dog park here in belton. We would love to take any new friends to visit. Please let me know if you prefer them not to go to the dog park and we can stay here and play. We have a fenced back yard but one side is only 4 ft. I work from home as a director so I have a very flexible schedule. My son does play competitive soccer so sometimes weekends have us at soccer field for about 2 hours. I have a fenced yard 3 sides are 6 foot privacy and one has a 4 foot chain link. I follow my client's care directions in their homes.

“I appreciate how well Chantelle took care of my sweet pup Blue! She left continuous updates on him and I will be forever grateful for her service.”

About: It all started with my childhood dog Maxine that broke the mold and created my love for animals. We are a big pet loving family that enjoys all animals big and small. Our backyard is entirely fenced in and the back fence line is 6+ feet high and the sides are chain link. It's about 1/3 of an acre in size. We also have a small sized dog run for those that need or prefer less space. It's a great place for dogs to explore and have the zoomies. We want to provide the best service we can. We will respond to your messages promptly, will send photos each day. We're flexible with picku-up and drop-off schedules. In the past oldest daughter and I volunteered at the Lawrence Humane Society for a year. Our family has fostered over 13+ animals in the past. We've had the pleasure of caring for everything from dwarf frogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, Madagascar cockroaches, fish, and of course our favorite cats and dogs. Our big family of animal lovers would love to care for your pet. I work from home each week. This gives me ample availability to care for your pet. My husband is also available multiple days a week and our two high schoolers are usually home in the evenings each day to give extra snuggles to your pet. We have a fenced in backyard and an additional small dog run for smaller dogs. We can feed your pet in a separate room if needed.

About: Hello! **Repeat Clients get specialized Discount** I am an avid animal lover. I got my first pet when I was 3 years old. It was a kitten named Nicky. He taught me a lot of responsibility and showed me a lot of love. A few years later my my mom added several dogs to the family - miniature Schnauzers, Standard Schnauzer, and a Beagle mix Having these animals in my life has given me great experience and also taught me unconditional love. My previous dog helped me get through the rough days when I lost my mom to cancer. I have learned to care for seniors, animals requiring medication (orally) and how to work with young animals especially puppies. In your employ my top priority will be your pets happiness. Working for you is my only employment and my focus will be on your dog or cat only. They will get my undivided attention and I hope to spoil them like crazy. Since I have dealt with several puppies I can even try to bring some training tips to your dog if needed. Personally, I do still have my pup Julius but he lives with family out in the country loving his best life in open fields He is 12 now, He is my furry angel in he was my little protector. It is so true that not all angels have wings. I would have kept him but I could not afford all of the vet bills when you take care of a pet properly, luckily I have a family member I love so much that was able to provide that. I love spoiling dogs of course with the doggy parental guidelines, this includes specific food regiments and pills. I hope that I will get to meet you and your fur babies soon! I have a very go with the flow attitude, I make any animal I care for #1. I dont work full time, so time for pet care is very important to me. Whatever routine the family has I stick to for consistency. I do have other activities I do but they are always scheduled around my work as a pet care provider. 🙂 In my home I create a safe environment. I'm very aware of other animals around to keep your dogs safety number one priority. Unfortunately in this world people at their dogs off leash and that can be a problem. I have no problem following any regimented food or medication delivered to the animals. Also if I'm in a client's home I would treat it with respect and basically make it look like nothing has changed except your dog has gotten top-notch care. If there's anything specific in the requiring overnight boarding I am more than happy to oblige with that.

“Merriam did a wonderful job watching over our puppy for several days while we worked, before he was able to go to a doggie daycare. She was so sweet to our boy Louie and very communicative before, during and after daycare. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs, gave helpful suggestions, and overall just made us feel comfortable leaving our little puppy for the day. Louie loved spending days with Merriam! I would definitely recommend Merriam to others and would love to use her services in the future! Thanks Merriam!”

“Beth was amazing! We met beforehand to make sure our pups got along and she was so kind and accommodating! She sent pictures to keep me updated and filled out the Rover cards everyday to let me know how it went! Will definitely be using her again!”

“Evelyn and her family were amazing! We’ve never boarded our dogs before and we were anxious about it. However, we needn’t have worried. She sent messages, pictures, and they were constantly cuddled. They came back safe and sound. She was beyond accommodating and we would not hesitate to bring them back! Thank you, Evelyn!”

About: I've been fostering the last few years and have experience with all sizes and types of dogs. I'm great with puppies and seniors. Our daily routine is consistent and calm. I love getting out for walks and spending a some time in the backyard a few times a day. I work from home and can provide potty breaks as needed. If I have to be out it will be between 1 and 4 hours. We have a good routine at our house of getting out for a walk or backyard sniff session every morning and evening. I work from home, have a fenced in yard and a very calm home environment. I have a 35 lb dog, Charlie who sleeps all day. We live in a quiet neighborhood that's great for walks. If I go out it's usually about 1 or 2 hours and rarely up to 4 hours. If I have more than one dog, I never leave them in the same space while I'm gone... or when feeding. I'm a small human :) 5 ft tall so while I'm happy to take larger dogs they do need to be leash trained for their safety and mine. Puppies need to be crate trained for their safety too.

“My pup Addie went to Kelly's home for a doggy day care. Kelly immediately made her feel right at home. Kelly & her husband took extra time and care playing a lot with Addie and lots of cuddles and also took extra precaution as it was so hot outside. Addie is looking forward to the next 6 days with Kelly. I was updated with pics and could see how much fun Addie was having. We are leaving our pup in great hands. Mary Ann A”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of him. He loves hanging out with you. It's funny because we will tell him where he's going in the morning and he gets so excited!”

“Gina is awesome. She took my dog Zeus in very short notice and made my stressful situation peaceful. She is a dog lover no doubt and has a great yard and home that is perfect . She sent me pictures and video updates daily and Zeus had the absolute time of his life playing with her 3 adorable dogs . Each time I bring him to her home he gets so exited as we pull up. He knows he’s going to have the best day with his friends! I feel so blessed to have found Gina for my baby Zeus. Only the best for him and Gina is that!”

“Christine was great to watch Chloe for an evening while we went out. We liked being able to do a meet and greet prior. Appreciated the secure backyard. It was comforting to know our girl was in good hands while we were gone.”
