Doggy Day Care in Gililland, Tempe, AZ

About: I have a fully enclosed back yard! I’ve cared for everything from wild zoomies to slow moving seniors. I’ve lived with four at once and loved every minute. Whether your pup wants playtime or chill time, I’m all about love, patience, and pets. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so your pup gets plenty of attention and breaks. I talk to dogs throughout the day like they’re my coworkers and yes, I expect them to answer. In My Home: Your dog receives: couch access, silly voices, snack breaks, and lots of love. I work from home, so there’s always time for 💩 breaks, play and cuddles. Bonus: I like to send silly photo updates.

“Alicia was so sweet! She welcomed boba into her home and took great care of him. She even made a little ornament with a Polaroid of boba for us.”

About: I took first aid for cats and dogs at the American Red Cross.I have had dogs for numerous years and taken care of some who weren't mine. Bobby was a sweetheart who I picked up on a highway. He was estimated to be 14 years old. I called AC and found his owner. He relinquished Bobby to me and, poor guy, developed cancer a few years later. Very hard. If the heat isn't too bad, we normally go for walks and spend time outside. There is a large grassy area and dog park across the street. I have large dog crates if anyone needs alone time. Also if dogs and cats need to be separate, they can go in other rooms.

“AMAZING. She sent me so many photos of my pretty pup, and she had a blast with her friendly dogs! Definitely recommend and definitely will be going through her again!”

About: I have 40+ years of loving, nurturing and training pets, including dogs, cats, horses, birds, ferrets, reptiles. I’ve had several training workshops for horses which has amplified the quality of interaction and communication with all my pets. Animals have always been drawn to me as I to them and has always been a major component that enriches my life. You can trust that I will love your pet unconditionally and give them the attention and focus you would give them. I currently work from home which allows me the flexibility to modify my schedule based on your fur baby’s needs for walking and care routines. Each client and fur baby has their own schedule and unique needs and so I tailor my service based on each situation so as to keep their life as consistent and normal as possible while you are away.

About: Hi! I’m Cassy, modern day Snow White who’d love to care for your fur babies! I’ve had family dogs my whole life. I got my “very own” dog for the first time when I was 15, and that sweet lady lived until I was 30. Taking care of her in her senior years was one of my greatest gifts. I have tons of experience training dogs/puppies and cats/kittens. Currently I own 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, and also care for a feral cat colony in my neighborhood. I am very patient, caring and compassionate with animals, and which helps to deal with even the most difficult personality types. While here, we will maintain your animals current feeding, walking and play schedule, and give them all the love and attention they need. I work full time from home, and am only gone for a few hours on weekdays to do school carpool and errands. On the weekends we are generally home, with the exception of family dinner on Saturday evenings and church on Sunday mornings. I have a fenced in patio with grass, and also have an unfenced front yard where dogs can go potty on leash. All visitors will have their own kennel and will be kenneled for meal time, and any time I leave home to prevent safety concerns. There is constant supervision when animals are not kenneled. Walk times can vary during summer depending on summer temps to ensure paw safety, and if you have dog shoes we highly encourage you to bring them.

About: I've fostered many family dogs for over the years. Not only do we play but they enjoy our conversations. They certainly don't lack for attention. I'm a retired teacher and former pet owner. I'm available 7 days a week from 7am to 6pm. Outside of occasional errands I am home. I currently do not have any pets so I will be your pets sole companion. Once inside the gate your dog will be totally safe in my fenced yard

About: I may not have years of professional experience, but I’ve gained valuable hands-on care from raising and loving my own dogs. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, grooming, and giving plenty of affection, I understand the responsibility and patience it takes to keep pets happy and healthy. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’ll give your dog the same love, attention, and care that I give my own. Whether it’s keeping up with energetic pups or making sure older dogs are comfortable and cared for, I’m here to help your pet feel safe and loved while you’re away. I work a regular 8–4 schedule, which leaves my evenings and nights free for pet care. That makes me a great fit for evening walks, playtime, feeding, or even overnight sitting. Since I’m home after work, I can give your pet plenty of attention, exercise, and care when they need it most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in my gated home with a big yard, giving dogs plenty of secure space to play, explore, and relax. I maintain a clean, calm environment and always supervise pets to ensure they’re happy and safe. You can trust that your furry friend will feel right at home while in my care.

About: Hi, I’m Sara, and I’m happy to welcome your doggy as a member of our family! We only board one pet at a time, making our home ideal for dogs who are best when they are the only pet in the home. I work from home which allows me the flexibility to create time for caring for pets including taking them out for walks or jogs (if they’re up for it) along the trails nearby. I will follow individual pet care instructions, if provided but if not our daily routine consists of a morning routine walk and feeding time, one to two more short walks in the afternoon, second feeding and a walk in the evening. Depending on their energy levels we’ll include indoor play/fetch time. But if they’re happy to just sit and relax, we like to do that too :) When boarding your pet, I follow all care instructions you provide. Including feeding times, and oral medications if needed. I only care for 1 dog at a time, making it a suitable home for doggies who prefer their own company and not being around other pets. My apartment home is spacious. The community is pet-friendly and we have a fitness/biking trail just in our backyard. I live 3 miles from Phoenix Sky Harbor making it convenient for drop-off/ pickup.

“I felt super comfortable leaving Topo with Krystal. She was super welcoming and understanding that he can, at times, be a bit timid and defensive. He came back to me in a great mood!”

About: Hey I'm Tomika. I'm a Social Worker who works in the mental health field. Traveling & pet care are my self-care due to having a stressful career. Taking care of animals is a great stress reliever for me. I will make sure your loved one is socialized, loved on & stimulated while you are away. They will receive lots of exercise, hugs, and treats if thats okay! I have been around animals my entire life. There was once a time when all 4 people in our home had a dog! Every animal has their own personality that needs to be catered to. I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I'm free Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays however I can also be with them on the weekdays due to working from home. Pets have received additional love during covid considering so many people are able to work from home now. My teenage son also loves animal and he's a big help to me. I can care for your pets in my home free range or in a crate. I can care for dogs, fish, birds and small animals. I understand how stressful & emotional it can be leaving your loved one especially if it's the 1st time. We live in a condo however there is a dog park here and various walking trails. I have various dog toys around because the dogs love to run through the condo, play with each other & go out on the patio.

About: Hello my name is Abby! I have two of my own dogs a Great Dane and a shitzu poodle, so I am experienced with all sizes. I love dogs and have experience with puppies up to senior care including medicine giving as well.

I have a fenced in back yard and accessible area for them to play at the dog park in the area. I ensure that any gates are closed and that bathroom breaks a frequent and accessible.

Really enjoy knowing pets are being treated properly and really happy I have the opportunity to give them a safe place away from home!
