Doggy Day Care in Gum Spring

“Our pup has been seen back since he was a little baby. I really appreciate that he can have multiple dogs at once and be so thoughtful about pairing up dogs that will play well/safely together. Zach notices the sweet little things that we love about our baby, and it means a lot that he cares enough to notice Pax’s changes as he grows up. Pax is ecstatic when we pull up to Zach’s house, comes home tired from a day full of fun. Thank you for being there for us, especially for our last-minute requests like today!”

About: Over the past couple of years, I’ve had the joy of caring for family and friends dogs when needed, giving their dogs a loving home away from home. I work from home so I have flexibility of time and a lot of love to give to your furry friend! Available for boarding any day of the week. My fenced-in back yard offers a safe environment for fresh air, fun, and exercise. Dogs allowed on furniture. I have a two year old lab who loves other dogs! I can also crate if needed.

About: I’m a stay at home mom with three dog crazy kiddos! I’ve always had dogs my entire life, and spent part of my young adulthood working as a vet tech. I have experience walking dogs for my neighbors growing up and taking care of friends’ critters. I’m home most of the day so your pup will get plenty of attention and opportunity for exercise and play time. My family and I love hanging out at home in our backyard when weather is nice and spending time with our animal crew. Nowadays, I live on three acres with my family including a little schnauzer and a flock of chickens. Your pup will be able to go on long walks and adventures as our neighborhood has lots of trail options! My kids are in school most of the day, and are very responsible and good with all animals. Your pup will get lots of socialization and love with us. Your fur baby will be in good hands with us!

About: I’ve had dogs and other various animals since I was a child. My first job in high school was at a pet boarding facility. While working there my love for animals grew. Ive pet sitted on and off since I left the kennel. I married a man who shared that love and we have 5 furbabies of our own! I’m currently a stay at home mom. I have a kindergartner, a 1 year old and 5 adult dogs. I spend my days taking care of my kids and dogs but wouldn’t have it any other way! My kids love playing with animals. If you choose us, we have all the time in the world to love on your babies! I have a few acres of land with a large fenced in back yard. Lots of room to run and play with our own dogs!

About: I have been a dog lover since I was a kid. I have been taking care of dogs from the past 20 years. In my coarse of dog care, I have dealt with dogs ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I have also gotten the opportunity to take care of injured and disabled dogs making me proficient in handling dogs with any behavior. ✨ A Real Home: No kennels. Just couches, sunny spots, and a peaceful house with a secure yard for stretching their legs. ✨ Family, Not Clients: Your pup gets all the love, gentle talk, and belly rubs they're used to. We send you happy photo updates so you can truly relax. ✨ Your Routine, Honored: I keep their normal schedule—meal times, walk times, and all the little quirks that make them them. ✨ Peace of Mind for You: The greatest gift I give isn't just to your dog, but to you: the ability to enjoy your time away, knowing they are safe, happy, and cherished. Because they deserve a vacation, too. I’m a home maker taking care of my two kids going to school. I see dogs as my way to happiness while I’m at home alone. Most of my house chores are done by the time kids leave to school and I would like to spend time on something I’m passionate about and hence I choose pet sitting. I myself have a GSD who is 6 years old and very pet friendly. He loves to make new friends and he is neutered.😉 I have a temperature controlled garage completely converted to a dog play area to provide a spacious and fenced zone. In addition we have front yard and backyard for occasional outdoor plays. I take dogs for a dog walk every 4 hrs and if owners prefer, I will take them to a dog park daily. I provide attention, love and care by ensuring proper nutrition, daily exercise, and regular grooming to keep them happy and secure.

“Ashli has been a blessing in disguise for us! We’re so glad to have found her on Rover! Our little dog Boba loooooooves playing with Ashli’s puppies Rocky and Fozzy. We had the best meet and greet experience we’ve had so far on Rover. Ashli and her puppers spent plenty of time with us and she even went to the extent of showing us her home and talked through how Boba would be situated. Ashli has been amazing at sending updates while we’re away and genuinely cares for Boba’s wellbeing. We’ve struck gold with finding friends for Boba and us and will continue to seek her help and services as long as possible! Thank you Ashli!!”

“Exceptional communication. Has sweet kids that play with the dog. Flexible. Sends lots of pictures. Open to feedback and gives feedback with kindness. Hayden’s place is our pup’s #1 choice. Thank you for being the incredible person you are, Hayden.”

“Denise was absolutely awesome. One of the best Rover day cares we have experienced. Would definitely recommend her and if in the area would ask her to stay with our dogs again.”

Nancy G.

“Vannessa is very reliable and sweet! My puppy loves her. She sends pics/vids throughout the day. Its a bonus that she lives 5mins from me. Grateful to have found her as I wasn’t expecting to get Ace so soon. So thank you very much for all you do, it is more than appreciated!”

About: I grew up with dogs, my grandmother used to show and breed rough collies in the 80's. Now I breed rough collies myself. I am an animal lover. I currently have dogs, cats, goats, chickens, ducks, geese, and 2 Emu's. I have a large fenced in yard, and guarantee your dog will have more fun here than they will at a boarding kennel or doggy day care. All chickens, ducks, and geese are in pens. Emu's are free range, and new dogs are closely supervised around them. Entire house has hardwood floors, is vacuumed daily, and mopped weekly or as needed. All dogs are on simparica trio, and I don't have any issues with fleas. I'm available for drop in visits any day of the week. I work from home for a small fence company, so I am free to schedule any time needed for your pets/animals. For boarding, I'm home almost all day. If I have errands or an appointment, the earliest I normally leave is 9 a.m. and get back home by 2 p.m. I prefer to have instructions for feeding, watering, etc written down so I can make sure all the animals are taken care of properly. I can also meet in person ahead of time to discuss where feed and watering supplies are kept. Boarding dogs-I'd prefer boarding dogs to be in the crate while I'm not home for safety concerns, they can run and play as long as they'd like when I'm home.

“Zadie enjoyed her day stay at Andreea's today. The shady back yard was a perfect exercise spot in this hot, muggy Richmond weather. Andreea let me know via message that Zadie wasn't so interested in her food, which she made up for when she returned home! Guess she was having too much fun interacting with Andreea's two pups to think about eating. Smooth booking, arrival and departure.”

Karen W S.

“Sheri was great! She kept in contact all day and sent pics of my little dude having a blast. If I’m ever back in Phoenix, I’ll absolutely call her again.”

About: Raised to love both cats and dogs, I’ve often looked after pets of all kinds for friends, family, and neighbors 😊 (As a teen, I once raised a litter of seven kittens from birth and found loving homes for them all! And I once babysat a friend’s hedgehog for a month while she was studying abroad.) My husband and I recently lost our beloved GSP to lymphoma, so I welcome the opportunity to look after sweet local doggos ❤️🐾 I work from home and enjoy long walks! I’m currently between gigs (just finished my PhD and am seeking a full-time position), so my schedule is super flexible right now! Plus, I always make a point of taking at least one good walk a day rain or shine ☀️😊🌧️ We just got a brand new fence for our backyard, so it’s perfect for both potty breaks and sprinties 😊 We also have a large crate and dog bed (w/ clean blankies!) suitable for most any sized dog, so if you board with us, your doggo will be comfy cozy 🐶 I’m also an experienced house/pet sitter, so I’m prepared to meet whatever needs you might have if I’m booked for a house call 👍
