Doggy Day Care in Gulf Gate Estates

“I cannot say enough about my experience with Beth and her husband and their home, little dog and cats. I felt so at ease around their kindness. The best part is that my dog was more vibrant and playful after two days with them. They were keen to follow instructions and just be a loving presence for Zushi. That’s what we needed most! I will be booking with them again. And highly recommend them.”

“Jennifer is a very friendly dog lover, she took great care of my dog Cali while we visited Siesta Key. Jennifer was accommodating with my sometimes unpredictable schedule and kept me updated on how Cali was enjoying her day with Jennifer. I will definitely request Jennifer for our future visits to Sarasota.”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and truly understand how much they mean to a family. We’ve always had a family dog, our last one passed in 2020 after 16 years of love. I’m experienced with caring for dogs of all ages and personalities — from playful puppies to sweet seniors — and will treat your pet like part of my own family. I make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my regular routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a one-year-old, and we both love going on walks and spending time outdoors. Having pets around adds even more joy to our day! Your furry friend will get plenty of attention, love, and fresh air while in our care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I only watch up to two dogs at a time, which allows me to give each pup plenty of one-on-one attention. Our home is clean, pet-friendly, and has a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore under my constant supervision. Inside, they’ll enjoy a cozy, loving environment — just like home!

About: 🐶 🐾 Hi friends! My name is Melissa, and I absolutely love spending time with dogs. I’ve been taking care of dogs for years — from playful little pups to gentle big dogs who just need some extra love and patience. I specialize in caring for small dogs in my home, where they’ll get plenty of attention, snuggles, and comfort — just like part of the family. For larger dogs, I’m happy to care for them right in their own home, where they feel safest and most at ease. I have experience with elderly and sick dogs, and I’m comfortable giving medications and following any special routines they need. Every dog I care for gets love, patience, and respect — because they all deserve to feel happy and secure. 💕 Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or just someone to give your pup some extra attention, I’d love to help. 📞 Send me a message if you’d like to chat or set up a meet-and-greet. I’d love to meet you and your pup. I am registered nurse currently working part time. I am able to come home and tend to your animal on my breaks on the days I am working. I get up early to take your pet on a nice walk, weather permitting. We will go out frequently during the day for fresh air and potty breaks. I am a homebody so your pet will rarely be alone. I am also available to watch your fur baby at your home. I can care for cat or dog in your home but I can only board small dogs in my home. I have a large fenced in yard. I have an enclosed lanai with a cat/dog door for access in and out if they just want to go out and get fresh air in the safety of the enclosure. I am all about safety and will never leave your furry when out in the back playing in the kiddy pool or playing with toys. I invite you to give me as many instructions as you like and call me as much as you like while I am caring for your baby. I have a very clean home that is air-conditioned and cool in the summer and toasty and warm in the winter. All animals are allowed on the furniture and will have cozy places to rest when we are not having fun, or going on walks.

“Tiffany was so amazing! We were visiting from out of town and needed someone to watch our dog for just a few hours so we could enjoy the beach. She responded right away saying she would be happy to take our dog for the day. Her property was so beautiful with a large fenced in area. Tiffany also text us updates throughout the day letting us know how he was doing. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be taking our dog back next time we visit. Thank you, Tiffany!”

“Christal did a great job wearing my pup out! She took her for a walk at the park and to lunch. Loved how many pictures were sent! Will definitely be rebooking in future”

“Marcy is beyond wonderful! She’s so caring and I can tell Porter has a good time while he stays with her and her dog Charlie. He comes home completely I can’t seem to keep him awake which is amazing because he’s just a 3 month old puppy and is typically a wild child in the afternoons! Marcy was so kind to take him on at a late request and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my little man. She made me feel so comfortable immediately! If I could give her more than five stars I would! She is so kind and I can guarantee she’d treat anyone’s pup like the special little fur ball they are :)”

About: My mini schnauzer of 15 years recently passed, so I would love to give other pups my attention and care. I take care of my neighbor’s golden retriever, my other neighbor’s Labrador when I would babysit their kids, and my old roommate’s pittbull mix. I will make sure I have plenty of time to play and care for with pups! I am available during the evenings on weekdays and weekends as well, depending on availability. I also paint custom doggie portraits as holiday gifts. I can stay with your furry babies at home if you would like. I am more than willing to walk, feed, and give all the snuggles to your loving pet.

“My dogs went for day care for 4 days and I had a great experience. Really smooth communication and the dogs came back calm and happy every day. They had a fun time playing with Andrew’s dog and they all got along. I will continue to book daycare with Andrew!”

About: Hi, I am Nick, I’m a dedicated pet care professional with years of hands-on experience working with dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments. As a kid, I worked at a Labrador retriever kennel, where I learned the basics of caring for all stages of life from puppy to adult. At home growing up, we trained guide Brittanys who were loyal and playful family dogs and a staple in my life. In college, I adopted a redbone coonhound who familiarized myself with building and maintaining a daily structure and routine as well as tending to his needs for enrichment and stimulation. Over the years, I’ve cared for many different breeds as well as plenty of cats with big personalities. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their routines consistent. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or giving medication, I make sure every animal gets the attention and respect they deserve. My goal is simple: treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their companions are in good hands. Oh and lots of pictures :) I can accommodate your schedule through out the week and am completely flexible as I work from home with only one part time shift 10-2pm on Saturdays. I keep leashes secure, check gates and doors before walks, and maintain calm energy to help animals feel safe. You’ll receive clear updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s an older cat or a high energy retriever, I prioritize their safety and happiness first.

About: I am very reliable, professional and trust worthy. I have had pets for well over 20 years and love animal. I will treat your pet as if it were my own. I work from home so I am here all day with your pets. I am very flexible and available days and nights seven days a week. Your pet will not be lonely in my home! I have three very friendly Havanese for them to play with. I also have a fenced in backyard for playtime. All animals that I am boarding or are here for day care must be current on shots, flea/tick and heart medicine. If you have any special requests like your pet being separated from others please let me know.

“Delia and her husband are great! They have become family to Lucy dog and I. They take care of Lucy at a moments notice. If I could give her 10 🌟 I would.”
