Doggy Day Care in Friday Harbor

“Kelsey was fantastic. Great communication leading up to the drop off and our pup had a great time with her dogs. Would happily book again with them the next time we are in town!”

“I had a last minute change to my booking, and Nicole was an absolute life saver! I couldn’t be more thankful for the flexibility. My dog was super happy and tired when I picked her up! I recommend this booking!!”

“Chelsey is AMAZING. We had a last minute trip come up and we were not able to take our dogs with us. I contacted Chelsey to watch my dogs for the day and she was more than happy to! She sent us pictures throughout the day and kept us updated on how our dogs were doing. She communicated great with us when we had to pick up our dogs a little later than expected and was very accommodating. I felt so bad we changed the time of our pickup, but she seriously put us at ease about it. Our dogs were so tired when we picked them up and fell asleep as soon as we got in the car. I would definitely book with her again! She’s fantastic!”

“Rachel was wonderful! It was our first time using Rover and we had a 100% satisfaction experience. We met with Rachel in advance of our booking, she was very responsive to our question and quick to respond every time we communicated. She introduced our 8 month old Toller to chickens, horses and cats with great success. A kind and calm sitter, we’d highly recommend her to others. Thanks for everything Rachel!”

About: *Senior dogs only*. Due to the age of my dogs I can only take low energy senior dogs. My fees reflect this. Leave your dog with me for a stress free vacation. I have a hybrid work schedule which allows me to work from home 3days/week offering flexibility in the days. I have a fully fenced yard that offers endless amounts of roaming. As a pet parent of 11 years I understand the stress that can come with leaving your dogs and all their nuances with a stranger. I will listen to all your concerns, and care for your fur babies as my own. I have a lot of experience administering medications. I have a pet stroller on standby. I am extremely knowledgeable of dog behavioural. I work from home 3 days/week offering my choice and can take breaks whenever I need for walks or bathroom breaks. I go to bed around 10pm and wake up when the dogs wake up around 7:30am. Please note that for doggie daycare I am not available for drop off before 8am. You can consider my boarding option and drop off the night before as an alternative :) I live in a one-level, single family home (no stairs) with a huge fully fenced yard. There are no gaps under the fence, and the fence is solid wood (no planks) which helps reduce visibility for reactive dogs. My partners 5.5 year old boy lives with me us part time from Saturday at 7pm until Tuesday at 7am. If your dog is here outside of those days, it is a child free home. He is good with dogs and understands boundaries. Note: I allow two dogs for boarding or daycare from Rover bookings at a time. My price for a puppy is just below double of an adult as they require more of my attention and training limiting the amount of bookings I can take in a day.

“Melissa took great care of our little Luna! This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous to leave our heart and soul with someone we didn’t know but Melissa was very reassuring and communicative to ease our worries and sent lots of pictures and updates! We would definitely use her again and recommend to anyone else looking for good care for their pup. :)”

Monita S.

“I felt very lucky to find a sitter that would take my pup and Tannis (and her patient family) spent quality time with my girl. Her location was perfect for me, I picked up a very happy puppy, and I could not feel more confident leaving my sweet girl in her care. Thank you Tannis!”

Alison B.

“Emilie and Morgan watched my little while I attended an event in Victoria while in town for a few days. He came home exhausted and i could feel the love they gave him while he stayed at their placez with lots of updates and pictures. I couldn't recommend them enough. Thanks so much guys!”

Scott T.

“Thank you for hosting Freya for a few hours! She came back to us a happy dog after an evening of fun with Kaori and her dog. Will definitely book again when we’re back on the island.”

Jeannine A.

“Sandeep was fantastic as a sitter! We reached out last minute and even had to adjust our drop off time. Sandeep was very welcoming, and Theo was well taken care of! It was seamless, and Theo came back to us just as if he was at a friend’s place. Highly recommend Sandeep as a sitter!”

Amba Singh & A.

“Neil was very accommodating and understanding. He sent us regular updates with photos on what was happening to our puppy all through the day. When we were delayed by one hour of the original pick up schedule, he didn't give a fuss and was patient with us. Thank you Neil, see you next time.”

Maria O.

“We don’t usually board our pups while traveling, but Nick and Rebecca had such great reviews that we booked a day with them for our girls while we enjoyed some island adventures that are not dog friendly. Very happy with our stay. Nick said our girls were relaxed and well behaved, so I know they felt at home with him. I appreciated the pictures and update, even during their brief stay. Would absolutely recommend Nick, Rebecca, Anna their sweet senior golden for excellent dog care!”

Jessica D.

“Angela always takes such good care of my girl, Remy, when I leave her for doggy daycare! She sends pics throughout the day so I can see what they’ve been up to, and Remy always comes home tired and happy. Remy can be anxious around new people but now she gets soooo excited to see Angela! Definitely recommend :)”

About: Hello! My name is Sarah Rose, and animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for pets since I had my first cat at three years old, and my current little Yorkie is the absolute love of my life. I’ve also shared my home and cared for a senior dog who had diabetes, cataracts, and became blind, so I’m very experienced and comfortable with senior dog care, administering medications, and managing all the routines and special attention that come with supporting aging pets. From 2014 to 2021, I was deeply involved in the dog rescue and rehabilitation community in Mexico, working hands-on with both cats and dogs of all personalities and backgrounds. I gained extensive experience in dog training, especially with larger breeds and more challenging cases, learning how to read canine body language and create safe, supportive environments for every animal. I know pets are family, and my approach is always to care for your pet as if they were my own: with warmth, attentiveness, and respect for their unique needs and routines. Whether your companion is a playful puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior needing medication and extra patience, you can trust me to provide responsible, compassionate care. I would love to meet your furry family member and help you feel at ease whenever you’re away. Please reach out if you have any questions or special instructions - I’m more than happy to accommodate all personalities, quirks, and care routines! As someone who works from home, I have a very flexible schedule and am almost always available to provide care and attention for your pets throughout the day. Taking my own dog for walks is truly the highlight of my day, and I love incorporating outdoor time and play into my routine. Because I’m home most of the time, I can offer plenty of companionship, regular check-ins, and a calm, reassuring presence for pets who need a little extra comfort or attention. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, day-care, or overnight care, I can easily adapt my day to fit your pet’s needs, ensuring they’re happy, safe, and well cared for no matter what. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of cozy spaces, regular supervision, and lots of love. I maintain a clean, secure space - removing any hazards and making sure pets are never left unattended outdoors. My own dog is gentle and well-socialized, and I always take the time to introduce pets slowly and ensure everyone feels safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines and instructions closely, respecting your space and your pet’s unique needs. I keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I am attentive to details, mindful of doors, gates, and feeding routines, and always prioritize gentle handling and positive reinforcement. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet as family: with patience, respect, and genuine care.

“Kathryn was great. She was really understanding and flexible with our new dog. Her calm and friendly manner made leaving him for the first time easier. Thanks.”

“Marta was a wonderful sitter for our pup Pretzel! My boyfriend and I needed to board him for a few hours while we went out to dinner to celebrate our anniversary. We felt like Pretzel was in great hands! Marta is incredibly responsive and transparent, which gave us confidence while booking. She also provided a detailed summary and numerous photos of pretzel’s adventures during his stay. We highly recommend booking Marta for your pet sitting needs!”

Rachel S.

“Chris and Amy were great with Leo he seemed happy and exhausted when he came home. They were good at communication, sent lots of photos and asked good questions. They were very tolerant of our high energy puppy! Thanks!”
