Doggy Day Care in Givens Hot Springs

About: I’ve cared for and trained dogs my entire life and grew up on a farm caring for many different animals. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them, understanding their needs, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I work from home and am home most of the day, except for the occasional in-person meeting. Since I’m already caring for my toddler and our dog, your pet will fit naturally into our daily routine and won’t be left alone for long stretches I provide attentive, in-home care focused on safety, routine, and companionship. In my home, pets have access to a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, regular play and exercise, and a calm household environment. I follow each pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible and am happy to accommodate specific care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.

About: I have cared for animals since my childhood. I believe in learning through play and movement. I am a big supporter of positive reinforcement and positive behavior practices. I love to have fun and spoil my dog and cat and I would do the same with yours. I believe in having fun and in positive interaction. I am an energetic person and can keep up even with the most active dogs lol It would be an honor and a privilege to serve you, and I would be very grateful for the opportunity to spend time, spoil, and take care of your baby lol I am looking forward meeting you soon and cannot wait to build an amazing relationship with you and your pet. Take care always, Tereza

“Rich and his family are so flexible with watching our dogs. They take such good care of them and always communicate well with us. Our dogs get so excited when we pull up to Rich’s house. We are so thankful to have a safe and fun place for the dogs to go while we are away! Thank you Rich 😊”

About: We have two high energy dogs that require regular exercise so I understand how hard it is to find a sitter who can meet that need. While your best friend is with us they can expect to get an off leash, 3-5 mile adventure every other day. I am trained and comfortable with an e collar but if your dog does not have good recall, no worries, I always carry a long line. Our home is best suited for medium to large dogs. I am a stay at home mom with 2 large dogs of my own. My dogs need regular off leash walks so you can expect your dog to get out plenty while with us. I have a large, fenced in yard. If I have to leave the house without the dogs I have spare kennels and a furbo dog camera to keep an eye on everyone.

“Bre was great with Maple! She had so much fun and was worn out when we picked her up. Bre kept us updated throughout the day on how Maple was doing and sent pics. Highly recommend her!”

“Even-keeled and easygoing, Emily was a good choice! She cared for my golden retriever for the day and my mind was at ease, knowing she’d be watched well, played with and fed by someone who knew what they were doing. Even when I had to make MULTIPLE last minute time changes in the schedule, Emily took it like a champ and without complaint! My golden seemed her normal dorky self after her stay!”

“What a great experience for both me and Blu! I contacted Dave hours before needing an all-day sitter and he graciously accepted. Blu had a great time and I received pictures during the day of all the fun she was having! Will definitely use this sitter again!”

About: We're a family affair: my sister Rachel, my son, and I all help with bookings. Beyond a basic love for dogs we are also experienced with furry fosters. We have housed all types, breeds, ages, abilities of dogs/puppies for days, weeks or months at a time depending on their individual needs. Our dogs are part of the family and welcome others into the pack well. Between the three of us, someone is almost always home and available to provide individual play time, lap time, TLC, and whatever else is needed. Dogs are excellent judges of character and would know right away when meeting us that we're gentle souls with a deep love for pups of all kinds. I'm currently a full-time student and available for overnights, weekend stays, or evening check-ins. My sister works a flexible schedule and is home most days. We can come to you or your fur babies can come to us, whatever makes them most comfortable. Our dogs are part of the family and welcome to be close to us on the couch or in bed. They are friendly and welcoming to new furry friends. We have also crate trained previous pets and understand that method as well. We are flexible and will respect your wishes. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to play with pups 🐶 and havre lots of support/backup help with Rachel and Gabriel when needed. I have lots of space and ways to provide opportunities for your pup to socialize with mine or separate them for some downtime as needed with 3 levels, gates and crates. We discuss your pup's needs and develop a customized plan for each stay to support your wishes.

“Amazing doggy daycare!”

About: I have enjoyed and cared for dogs all my life and spent many years participating in Agility training and trials with my Blue Heeler/GS Pointer. I have raised puppies and tended to them throughout their long lives. I am a sucker for a white-faced senior dog! I met my husband over 30 years ago when he was a veterinarian and I was a veterinary technician. If your pet needs medication I am happy administer it for you. I am retired and I have many free days and nights for pet sitting and dog walking. I am flexible and happy to accommodate your schedule. Your dog is welcome in our home and on our furniture, and will be treated as one of our own. I have solid fencing on 3 sides of my backyard, with a metal fence on one side. (4 feet high with 3 3/4 inches between the vertical rails.) I will supervise your dog in the yard or take them outside on a long lead, as needed. I appreciate clear instructions on how you would like your pet cared for, and I will follow them respectfully. Does your dog have a favorite toy? Are there specific training guides you would like reinforced? Do they prefer to play alone or with other dogs? Just let me know what they need and I will be happy to accommodate them whether at your home or mine.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have looked for ways to have more in my life. I’ve fostered for shelters before because I care deeply about animals and love having them in my home. I have puppy sat often for friends and neighbors and would love to look after your animal! I work from home, so I have plenty of time to give attention to and play with your animals! I’m always open to having more animals in my home. I have a large, fenced in back yard and a friendly, fixed golden retriever to play with your pup! He hasn’t met a dog he doesn’t love yet. We also have a space for him to go if he needs.

“Kylee is great! She communicates well and took great care of our puppy. He gets so excited to go to her house and play with her and Benji!”

About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my entire life — from dogs and cats to smaller pets like birds. Animals have always been a huge part of my world, and I can’t imagine life without them. I enjoy training my own dog and use positive reinforcement to help build trust and good habits. I’m comfortable working with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from energetic puppies to calm seniors — and I always tailor care to meet their individual needs. I have a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor play, exercise, and potty breaks. I’m also experienced with administering medication (oral, topical, or drops) and following special routines, feeding schedules, or dietary needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every animal like family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care — just like they would at home. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send photo or video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Hi! I’m Michelle — a lifelong animal lover who works from home, so I’m with my dog (and yours!) all day. I love spending time outdoors hiking, paddleboarding, and going on walks. I also attend dog training classes a few times a week, which helps me stay in tune with canine behavior and care. Your pets will get plenty of attention, love, and company while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I work from home full-time, so pets in my care are never left alone for long periods. My dog stays in my office with me during the day, and your dog is welcome to join us — or enjoy their own quiet space if they prefer. I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and respectful of every pet owner’s home and routine. I follow all care instructions closely to ensure consistency, safety, and peace of mind. My reputation and your trust mean a great deal to me, and I’m committed to providing the same level of care I would want for my own dog.

“Very easy to work with and she did everything to make our little one comfortable being at the sitters the first time. Truly wish she was in our area (we were traveling for this event) because we would absolutely use her again.”
