Doggy Day Care in Gateway

About: Having pets myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your beloved companions. I remember taking my own dogs to kennels and feeling as if they spent most of their time waiting for me to return. When I discovered Rover, I loved the idea that pet parents could find a caring, home-based alternative—either at a sitter’s home or in their own familiar environment. As a Rover sitter, I care for pets and homes exactly as I hope someone would care for mine. I have an established clientele of pups I care for in my home (since 2019) and have recently begun to enjoy in-home sitting as well, bringing the same dedication and attention to detail your pet deserves in their own home. I am a very clean person, respectful of your space, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, always seeking detailed instructions to ensure your pet’s needs and routines are thoroughly met. I’m also excited to share that I am now offering dog walking services and drop-in visits, providing pups with daily exercise, stimulation, and companionship—perfect for busy pet parents who want their dogs to stay happy and healthy even on their busiest days. I work full-time 100% remote so I have the flexibility to care for your pets while I am working. I do like to head home for a few hours a day if house sitting to be with my family. My husband cares for our pups who are visiting and our own, if I'm away. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment where they can follow their usual routines, including feeding, exercise, and playtime, while ensuring they have access to fresh water and cozy resting spots. In a client’s home, I maintain the pet’s familiar surroundings, adhere closely to the owner’s instructions on diet, medication, and daily habits, and give regular updates to ensure peace of mind. Whether at my place or the client’s, I prioritize the pet’s well-being, safety, and happiness by giving them attentive, loving care tailored to their needs.

“Coltrane spent his first day with Sarah & Darren and they took great care of him. It is obvious that they are dog lovers and enjoy hanging out and playing. Coltrane had so much fun, he didn't necessarily even want to leave when we picked him up. We have a couple of boarding stays booked with Sarah & Darren in the near future and I feel good about leaving Coltrane with them for these stays. I know he will be well taken care of and have lots of fun. Thank you Sarah & Darren!”

“My pup had an absolutely wonderful stay for 4 days, she came home super happy and tired out each day. They were extremely accommodating and available on short notice. 10/10 would rebook”

“David and Laura have been 5 star dog sitters while we have been out of town. This time, David and Laura were 5 star doggie daycare for our pup. We so appreciate all they do for our pup and all they do to keep us updated with photos and videos.”

“Lego had a great time at Brooke & Nathan's house. Our regular sitter was not available and I was so glad to find Brooke & Nathan's profile. It is obvious that they LOVE dogs. Lego can be a little shy and nervous at new places but Brooke and Nathan made sure he was comfortable, they took their time introducing Lego to their dogs. Lego had a blast playing with his new friends. It was nice to receive the visit card at the end of the day - this is the first time a sitter did that for us.”

“Tim and Beth were so helpful with very short notice. Our dog Fritz had a blast with their two dogs and came home happy and tired from playing in the backyard. We will certainly call on them again, should our calendar require it. I would definitely recommend them. Your dog will have a great time and come home smiling.”

About: Responsible and reliable family available for walks, drop ins and/or boarding in our home. We have two mini goldendoodles and two kids who are involved in the care, so your dog gets a full family experience. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, as we would be happy to help! We work from home, meaning flexible schedules for walks/drop in visits. When staying with us, your pet will not be alone longer than 3 hours at a time. For drop-in visits and walks at your home, we tailor the visit based on your fur baby's routine and your preferences. You will receive a detailed update after every visit. For boarding guests, we welcome 1 guest dog at a time, so your pup gets our full attention. Our home has a fully fenced yard with room to run and play. We keep active schedules that include daily walks and playtime with our pups, and your dog will never be left alone for more than 3 hours. (likely less) We do ask that boarding guests be friendly with kids and other dogs, current on vaccines, and healthy at the time of their stay. We want every visit to feel like their home away from home.

About: What sets me apart is the amount of time and attention your pet gets. Since I work from home, your dog isn’t left alone for long stretches. They get consistent supervision, interaction, and care throughout the day. I’m great at adapting to each dog’s needs, whether that’s high energy play, sticking to a strict routine, or giving extra patience and comfort to shy or anxious pets. As a remote worker, I’m home most of the day and able to give pets consistent care and attention. I have a flexible schedule, which means more walks, more playtime, and less time your pet is left alone. I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I stick closely to their usual routine,feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions you provide. Since I work from home, they get lots of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed in a calm environment.

“Toph enjoyed another stay and was well-cared for. She was happy to visit again and play with Trooper and Ronin. Deanna sent lots of updates and made an effort to keep Toph comfortable and engaged.”

About: I have had dogs the majority of my life and absolutely adore them. They bring so much unconditional love to our lives that it is impossible not to love them! I currently work from home so I am always here for your dog(s) during the day. My schedule at work is designed to allow me to take dogs out every two hours if they aren't sure of or can't use a dog door. I will get all viable information from the pawrent so I know exactly what is needed for the pet such as feedings, walks, medications, training or other things.
