Doggy Day Care Hamilton

About: Hi! I’m a work-from-home mom of three amazing boys, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals wasn’t just a hobby — it was a way of life. I’ve owned pets my entire life and have also fostered many dogs over the years, so my boys have grown up learning how to properly handle, respect, and love animals. We recently lost our sweet dog last year and are taking a little break from owning one, but our home feels happiest with paws around. Dog sitting allows us to share that love while giving your pup the attention and care they deserve. Because I work from home full time, your dog will rarely be alone and will get plenty of supervision, affection, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large single-family home with lots of space to relax. There’s a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, as well as a spacious front yard — but please know your dog will never be outside unsupervised. In our home, dogs are family. They’re welcome on the couch and even in the bed for snuggles at night if that’s what they’re used to. My boys love giving extra attention, playtime, and belly rubs — always guided by what your dog is comfortable with. Our family truly adores and respects animals, and we will care for your dog as if they were our own — with patience, structure, affection, and lots of love. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home full time. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and regular potty breaks as often as needed. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. We go on at least one walk every day, and I’m happy to adjust the length or pace depending on your dog’s age and energy level. In addition to walks, I incorporate outdoor time, playtime, and plenty of affection into the day. Because I’m already on a steady home schedule, it’s easy for me to maintain feeding times, medication schedules, and any specific routines your dog is used to. When pets stay in my home, they become part of our daily routine and are treated like family. Because I work from home full time, I’m able to provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Dogs have access to our large fenced backyard (always supervised) and enjoy at least one daily walk, along with playtime and snuggles. They’re welcome on the couch and even in bed if that’s what they’re used to. I stick closely to each dog’s normal feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is always the same: to provide safe, loving, reliable care so both you and your pet feel completely at ease.

“Maki is so kind, she agreed to watch Gin on late notice. Gin definitely had fun and Maki’s! Maki was great at communicating and sending pics of Gin throughout the day! Definitely recommend!”

About: Hi all! I am interested in doing some petsitting to find some dog friends for my pup. I am not a full-time dog sitter, however, I'd like to find some more dogs that my dog will play with & hopefully build some puppy friendships. I live in Leesburg and WFH. I work from home & my dog is cage free all day. We usually do a longer walk in the mornings (between 6-7am) and play outside when it's cooler, then a short walk around lunch time, and another walk around sunset. Bedtime is around 9:30 in our house. Ideally I'd like to find other low-medium energy dogs that play well with my dog and can be trusted to free roam/play around my townhouse while I work. We go out for lunch time play around the neighborhood so good leash manners is a must.

“Very welcoming of Augustus into their home. Treated him like their own and he looked like he had a great time. Will use again.”

About: My kids (13-19) and I can offer a safe, happy home, companionship and plenty of play time to your furry friend(s) while you're away! Being semi-retired allows me to dedicate more time to caring for pets. I frequently assist friends and family with pet care when they travel. My life basically revolves around my 3 teenagers, volunteering and bike riding when possible. Your pet will always have company in our home, with plenty of walks and playtime. My children, especially my daughters, love and enjoy their companionship.

“Erin took great care of my dog Rosie! Erin has watched my dog at her home and done a check in at my house. Both visits went perfectly. Rosie gets super excited when she sees Erin and I love the photos she sends. I would highly recommend Erin!”

“Barbara was polite, thoughtful, and kind. She texted to let us know how he was doing about halfway through the appointment, and she shared a cute picture. I would definitely book with her again and certainly recommend her!”

“Cheryl was very kind and gracious with my beagle, Milton. She is conveniently located within the downtown Leesburg area and has a perfect yard for letting your dog out throughout a daycare visit. Milton seemed to enjoy his stay and I'll absolutely book again when I need someone to watch him while I'm in the area. Thank you!!”

About: Hi, I’m Tori! Services I offer: • CAT Boarding ONLY - NO DOGS (My Home) • House Sitting (Overnight Care) • Drop Ins • Dog Walking • Doggy Daycare I just graduated from JMU and am offering pet sitting services while I am in grad school for radiation oncology! I specialize in caring for both cats and dogs of all breeds and ages. Why you should book with me :) • Fast communication and reliable updates • Flexible schedule • Daily photo and message updates • Experience with medication administration • Skilled with shy, anxious, and senior pets • Multi-pet household experience • Fostered 20+ cats and kittens • Volunteered at an animal shelter and cat café for 3 years • Farm animal experience While I’m relatively new to Rover, I’ve spent years caring for animals both personally and professionally, including working for a pet sitting company during my breaks from school. I’ll make sure your pets receive the attention, love, and consistency they deserve while you’re away! A little more about me: The past 3 years at college, I have volunteered at an animal shelter and cat cafe! I’ve fostered 20 cats and kittens! From administering medications to helping shy kitties come out of their shells, I’m proud to say they’ve all found loving homes! I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life and have also had birds, guinea pigs, fish. I’m very comfortable with pets who need extra care and patience. In addition to dogs and cats, I have extensive experience with horses and barn animals. I grew up riding horses competitively and have worked with goats, chickens, donkeys, and other farm animals. If you have additional barnyard friends, I’m happy to help care for them too! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your pets! I’m on summer/winter break which means I’m able to take care of your furry friends! I am extremely active and when I’m not pet sitting I’m usually at the gym getting some more exercise! As a pet sitter, my top priority when taking care of your pet is safety and high quality care. This includes monitoring their health, and overall well-being. Maintaining a pet-friendly environment, keeping an eye out for any irregular behavior, and making sure your pet is happy and healthy are my goals when taking care of your fur babies! I make sure all animals are cared for to my best ability and to be very quiet and extra gentle to one’s that are more shy or timid. I stay with the pets usually for 30 minutes unless stated otherwise to ensure that they are getting the love and attention they deserve.

About: I’m a mom with lots of patience and genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities, including helping anxious or stressed dogs feel safe, calm, and happy during boarding. I’ve cared for many of my neighbors’ pets, and they always love coming back. I’ll treat your pet like family and be their next best friend while you’re away! I have a 16 year old miniature Shih Tzu who means the world to me! I’ve also rescued several dogs and cats. I spent about three years volunteering with the SPCA Texas. To me, dogs are little angels, and I treat every one of them with love, patience, and gentle care. I’m home full time, so your pet will never be left alone or unsupervised. I know boarding can feel stressful for pets, so I make sure they get lots of love, attention, and a calm environment where they can feel safe and comfortable. I live with my daughter, who also loves animals. We don’t have kids in the home, and we respect every pet’s space and personality. Our home is clean, peaceful, and very pet friendly, dogs are welcome on the couch and bed if that’s what makes them feel at home. Everything is cleaned thoroughly after each stay. I only accept one boarding family at a time, so your pet gets my full attention, personalized care, and a quiet space without being overwhelmed. We also have a yard. My own pet is fully vaccinated. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved, like they’re staying at 5 star home away from home. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your dog’s needs. I’m home 24/7, so your pet will always have company, care, and supervision. We usually start the day early with a nice morning walk, followed by breakfast and lots of attention. If treats are allowed, I love giving a little morning treat, such a fun way to start their day. In the afternoon we go for another walk, and I spend time playing based on what your dog enjoys most, whether that’s fetch, toys, or just relaxing nearby with company and cuddles. In the evening, we do another nice walk followed by dinner and wind down time. Throughout the day, they will have potty breaks in our yard I provide loving and patient care for every dog, whether in my home or yours. I’m retired, so I have full focus during my work.

“Sancho may be a spoiled little Frenchie, but he met his match with this amazing sitter! She treated him like royalty, even hand-feeding him when he decided his food bowl was beneath him. 🐾 I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who loves your dog like their own (and has the patience of a saint), she’s the one!”

About: For years, I've walked the fields and trails along the Potomac River with a furry companion - most recently with Flannery, my family's Great Pyrenees who loved romping in Virginia Bluebell flowers and sinking her paws into mud. Animals have always been a part of my life. I've mucked stalls, herded ewes and lambs, evaded headbutting rams, cuddled pigs, milked goats, trimmed hooves, and named a farm dynasty of cats and kittens names like "Nefertiti" and "Isosceles" (after Egyptian royalty and geometry terms). Animals and their personalities are a source of endless interest for me. “If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans.” ~James Herriot I have a flexible work schedule at home and welcome an excuse to enjoy fresh air and exercise together with your pet. I'm available for daycare and dog-walking every day except for Sunday mornings. Your dog can stay indoor in my apartment or outdoor in the fenced-in yard, as needed. I live in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for walking. If additional space is needed for running and walking in the open countryside, I am also happy to take your dog on a "field trip" to my family's little farm.

“Colleen is caring for my 16 week yorkie puppy Tibbers. She is everything her bio and reviews have already said and more. A very experienced dog handler that puts you at total ease with her approach, feedback and overall LOVE of animals. Our family and puppy are lucky to have found her as it truly makes you feel like you're giving your dog a vacation instead of boarding. She has a property that dogs dream about, trained dogs of her own that teach as well as play and with her new/repeat customers your dog will be exposed to socialization but with very careful supervision. Would highly recommend and will continue to both board and do daycare with Colleen.”
