Doggy Day Care in Hartville

“Excellent service. Zach and his daughter were great with my dog Rex! Great setup with a tall fence and Rex loved playing with their dogs.This was a same day booking and they were able to accommodate us last minute and also the following day. I had only left my dog one day at a kennel his whole life so was nervous and within minutes knew I had made the correct choice with Zach and his home!”

About: Hii!! I’m Julia and I absolutely love animals. I grew up with dogs and spent a lot of time caring for stray cats, so being around animals has always come naturally to me. I regularly dog sit for my parents, friends, and neighbors, whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while their humans are away. I’d love to be a part of your pet’s routine and give them all the love and attention they deserve! Pictured are a couple pets I regularly look after. 🐾💛 I grew up with dogs, cared for stray cats, and these days I regularly dog sit for my parents, friends, and neighbors. I'm currently on summer break and would love to spend time with some furry walking companions! Whether it’s strolls around the neighborhood, playtime, or just being a cozy buddy, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and loved. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for both cats and dogs, and I make sure each pet feels safe and comfortable in my care. For dogs, I take them outside regularly for walks, fresh air, and playtime. I keep their routines consistent, whether it’s feeding, medication, or quiet time. For cats, I create a cozy, low-stress environment with room for litter boxes, toys, and hiding spots if they need them. I also keep plenty of space for any supplies you provide, and I always treat your pets like they’re my own — with lots of love, patience, and attention.

“Kelli has been watching my Australian Shepard for nearly a month now on a weekly basis for doggie daycare. She does a wonderful job playing, walking, and caring for my Ruby. She manages Rubys high energy and chaotic personality. Kelli is a great experienced sitter and I would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: I have 12years of experience taking care of dogs, both large and small, including senior dogs. Our home has two beds neither has a box nor a frame so even if they need to jump on and off, it won't cause any harm to their bodies. I am currently not working, so I am available to take care of the pets throughout the day, both on weekdays and weekends. Even if I have to go out, my husband has plenty of experience in taking care of the puppy. He works on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, but can work from home at other times have an 12-year-old dog. She is spayed and typically very friendly. I only board friendly dogs weighing less than 40 pounds, so you don't have to worry about any potential dangers. I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment, and I only board a maximum of two dogs at a time. There is a spacious grassy area outside the apartment for dog walks.

“Paula and Bill were amazing hosts for Otto! He had a great time there and loved playing with their own pup as well. We would definitely work with them again!”

“Suzanne was fantastic with our pup! She shared several pictures throughout the day and her doggos wore out my high energy canine. I hope we're able to get them together again soon!”

About: My name is Holly. I have 1 chihuahua. I am an animal lover! I grew up on a farm, so I am familiar with care of many types of animals. I have never not had a dog in my life. I have a flexible schedue, own my own home, work remotely full-time , and am very dependable. When house sitting, i do prefer stays less than 4 days, but willing to consider longer stays. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your furry loved ones! Why I love dog sitting I have had at least 1 dog my whole life. I've had breeds ranging from Chihuahuas, to Boxers, to Bull Terriers. Dogs are a blessing and I love having them in my life. I will administer pills and liquid drops, but not shots. I work remotely, so I am fully available to your pet. I have a 15 year old chihuahua who is very chill. No children or anyone else in the house, so if your dog or cat needs a relaxing stay, I can provide that.

“Thanks! Lucia and Iris had a great time”

About: I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals—growing up with pets, fostering rescues, and eventually turning that passion into a career I truly love. I’ve worked in both professional boarding facilities and from my own home, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs—including the anxious, the rowdy, and the reactive. My background in training means I don’t get flustered when “dogs are dogging”—I know how to handle situations calmly, safely, and with care. What makes this more than just a job to me is the connection. I love my clients—both two-legged and four—as if they were friends and family. I take pride in the dirty work, the hard work, and the heart work, because there’s nothing else I’d rather do. I always aim to provide the kind of care I’d want for my own pets: professional, reliable, and full of love. This isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am. Each day starts with potty breaks—puppies and dogs with bladder or health issues go first, followed by the rest. Morning feedings come next, and then the day’s activities vary depending on the group. I rotate between walks, training sessions, grooming, structured play, and relaxing time in my fenced-in yard while I work outside. Dogs are crated anytime I leave the house and again overnight for safety and routine (crate training is something I can help with if needed). I maintain a consistent potty schedule every 2–4 hours and can administer any type of medication as directed. This is what I do every day—and I take pride in keeping things safe, clean, calm, and enjoyable for every dog who stays with me. My background as a professional dog trainer gives me a strong foundation in dog behavior, body language, and pack dynamics. I didn’t have to learn everything the hard way—I’ve had over a year of hands-on mentorship with some of the top trainers in the area, and I continue to seek their guidance and sharpen my skills. That experience allows me to manage dogs safely and confidently, even in challenging situations. In my home, every dog is respected for who they are. I don’t let emotional attachment cloud my judgment—I honor the animal side of every dog and prioritize safety, structure, and calm energy. I’ve become obsessed with learning to speak their language, and that obsession shows in how I read behavior, prevent conflict, and create a peaceful environment. Dogs are always crated when unsupervised and at night, and I keep a consistent routine of potty breaks, feeding, medication, enrichment, and rest. Group sizes stay small so I can maintain control and meet each dog’s individual needs. This is a safe, secure, and respectful space for dogs to relax, reset, and be understood.

About: I have two dogs of my own. Both are very friendly and get along with other dogs. They have been to the dog park multiple times. I am home most weekends, evenings, and throughout the day on weekdays. I will treat your dogs like my own. I have flexible rates if you need me to watch more than 1 of your dogs. I have flexible rates if you need them watched for an extended amount of time. I have a son who has been raised with dogs since birth so he will treat them well and is not afraid of dogs at all. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to helping care for your fur baby. I am available mornings, evenings, and weekends. I also have flexibility to leave work for an extended lunch. I have the flexibility needed to care for your pets. I have friendly pets who are used to other animals. I am happy to accommodate your pets schedule and make this as smooth as possible.

About: I have been a lab parent for 30 years and have trained, walked and had many many dog sleepovers. I love dogs and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I am retired and have plenty of time to walk, play and care for your dog. We have a large yard to play chuckit too. I have a very large yard to play with your dog. I can easily crate your dog too if you prefer. I have walked and sat for many other dogs

About: Your pet is treated as my own and a family member. Your fur baby is not crated unless you request that and provide the crate. Your pet gets to go outside and run and play several times a day. I go out and encourage playing and running for exercise. When the weather permits, we walk through the field and explore along the canal, a stroll along the towpath or a trip to the dog park. If your pet is older and doesn't want to play or explore, that's ok. I have plenty of shaded areas for them to just lounge and take a snooze while I sit with them and read. I would love to share your fur babies with you. Must provide proof of all shot records (including Kennel Cough vaccine). I encourage an hour play date (prior to the sitting) to make sure that your fur baby is going to be a good match with our family.

About: As a dog mom of 2 German Shorthair Pointers. These dogs have high energy and need lots of attention so I keep my energy up and stay active with them such as lots of play time and walks. Dogs are my world and I do everything to keep a smile on their face and their tails wagging :) I currently work as a part time hairstylist on the weekends but have full availability through the week Monday-Friday. If given enough notice for weekend dog sitting I can make it work I have two fur babies of my own that are very friendly and love to play inside and outside! They have their own bedroom and I offer beds and crates. I have lots of toys, extra leashes for walks and have extra cables to let them play outside. I even make homemade doggy ice cream for treats on hot sunny days! :)

About: With 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I have developed a strong understanding of their unique needs, personalities, and health requirements. I have successfully managed feeding schedules, grooming routines, and administered medications when necessary. My experience also includes providing companionship and stimulating playtime to ensure both physical and mental well-being. I am skilled in recognizing signs of illness or discomfort, and I am quick to respond to any medical or emergency situations. Growing up with multiple dogs, cats and horses, I understand the importance of creating a safe and comfortable environment. In my family, pets ARE family and at holiday gatherings pets frequently outnumber people! Whether it’s walking or cuddling, I am committed to making your pet feel as loved as all of ours! I am working as a nursing assistant whenever I pick up. I have plenty of time take care of animals, either to babysit them or just a visit. I live on an acre lot on a quiet, dead end street. Woods in the back and trails behind that to walk on for miles. I have a friendly 12 year old dog who loves to keep company to other pups.

“Rachael is fantastic! She is super sweet and reliable and great with our little anxious Theo. He was so relaxed the entire day! She is punctual and quick to respond. 10/10 would recommend!”
