“Derek was great with our Bruce! He is very knowledgeable about puppies and dogs of all breeds. Bruce had a great time at doggy daycare under the care of Derek. Derek was very kind to send updates and pictures and he also summarized each day of Bruce’s stay. He definitely made me feel at ease by asking questions about Bruce’s daily routine and habits. In addition, the tips I received from Derek are invaluable. We will definitely continue to use Derek for future daycare needs.”
“Jasleen took our last minute day care booking graciously and promptly. She saved our day. She is so nice and accommodating to us and our dogs’ need. She treated our pets like family. Which is everything I could ask for when I’m unable to take care of them myself and have to leave them under someone else’s care. The photos and videos we received while we were away are much appreciated! We are thankful to Jasleen and will not hesitate to trust her with our pets whenever we are in town.”
About: I love dogs and owning 2 has inspired me to work with more. I am a graduate of Animal Behavior College where I earned my certification as a Dog Trainer. Animal Behavior College (ABC) is approved by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education and is an internationally recognized institution. My year long commitment to this program has provided me with a formal education in canine obedience training and a professional understanding of canine behavior. My certification and skills will ensure your dog is in good hands. I am available 7 days a week because I own 2 dogs of my own and I also work from home. Availability may vary during holidays. For boarding and daycare clients must be crate trained to ensure the safety of everyone. Facilities include an outdoor run that is turfed and equipped with showers to keep clean and a misting fan system for hot days, along with an assortment of chew toys and snacks and elevated beds. All clients sleep indoors in an air conditioned room.
“Krystle was great since the beginning! She took us the same hour we searched for her on a Sunday. Krystle updated us with pictures and nice comments about our dog. We saw that she has a LOT of experience with dogs. Our 10yr old Golden Retriever came back happy! We would come back and recommend her to any of our friends.”
“Very late on my review but Farin took such good careof my Rosie! We took a day trip out of town and every time I told my husband at this time I will check in Farin already updated me few minutes before on how she was and sent pictures I loved it! I had to drop off Rosie early morning and she was up and ready to take her! Rosie seemed very comfortable and got along great with her pets. Thank you Farin! Appreciate you taking care of her the whole day! Definitely would go back to her and recommend for others to choose Farin for your next doggy day care!”
About: I was raised on a ranch with numerous pets, including many dogs from a young age. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience in training puppies and caring for senior dogs. I have a genuine passion for puppy training and continuously seek out new methods to effectively teach them. Additionally, I am well-versed in giving medication to dogs when they require it. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom with a 1-year-old while also attending school. Most of the care happens throughout the day alongside my normal responsibilities at home. I make time for feeding, letting the pet outside or going on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get attention and exercise. Since I am home most of the day, I am able to monitor their needs and keep a consistent schedule. I usually plan pet care around my child’s routine and my schoolwork, such as feeding in the morning and evening and taking care of walks or playtime during breaks or nap times. Being home gives me the flexibility to balance caring for both my child and my pet while staying organized with school responsibilities. I have a secure, fenced patio and two friendly dogs to keep your pups company. If necessary, I can separate them. My dogs and I take daily walks, and we would be thrilled to have your furry friend join us. Visits to the dog park are also on the agenda if it's an activity your pup enjoys!
“Kara was great with Scoobert. He has a lot of separation anxiety since he was recently adopted by us. Kara communicated with us and asked for ways to help him feel more comfortable with her. She kept us updated and sent photos. We appreciate her attentiveness.”
“I really enjoyed working with Iris & Robert. Iris was extremely communicative, flexible, and had a nice/clean environment for my puppy. I felt my puppy got a lot of attention and was treated like family. I could tell she was very excited to go to Iris' home in the morning and did not want to leave when I picked her up, which was a very good sign to me. I will definitely be returning for my next doggy daycare needs!”
About: We love photography & Halloween! I am Always Petting someone’s Pet. I used to rescue & rehome dogs. I’m a sucker for anything that has 4 legs! Well, all animals really! My poor husband is always getting suckered into saving something! We actually specialize with anxiety & handicapped animals! We rescued an elderly Staffordshire Bull Terrier with dementia. She Passed 7/11/26. I have a very flexible schedule. I live in an 3 bedroom home, with a back yard. we love having pets overnight as long as they don’t chew, scratch, bark or whine in excess! I have Tile floors so some accidents are ok! I don’t use cages, unless you prefer them. When I care for pets in my home I start by laying comfortable beds anywhere and everywhere they feel comfortable sleeping. We enjoy walking and hiking if they do too. We live next to a park! We play ball a lot! We have a very calm environment & we just love cuddles & fur babies! We include them in EVERYTHING. At the moment, my full time job is caring for animals. I board full time. It’s my passion. Anything your animal needs, I’ll do it. I care for pets almost daily. In the summer the teenagers come and cuddle and play, to help. I offer any service needed. I love special needs & elderly animals the most. I have had the privilege to usher elderly animals off, whilst giving them the best last day they could have. Helping families heal. I have many reoccurring clients. I love all pets, like they are my own.
About: I’m super reliable my schedule is very flexible, affordable, and very much welcoming! I’ve always had a passion for animals since a little girl. I grew up with 2 dogs and 1 cat that I loved the most. I cannot wait to meet all your fur babies! I work a full time job currently working from home. So I thought this would be a big opportunity for me to do what I love and that’s being with my fur baby. Can’t wait meet all these fur babies and just be willing to help others.

About: I have had dogs throughout my entire life and I have dog sat for friends and family several times. I love dogs and love caring for them. I am available for dog sitting during the day and overnight boarding Monday- Friday and weekends. I am able to be home all the time I have a fenced yard with grass, I have a large playpen available to use if needed and keep them in one area of the house
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, including dogs, birds, and cats. So I’m very comfortable caring for a variety of pets and understanding their different needs. While most of my experience comes from caring for my own animals and fostering animals from Fresno Humane, I’ve also pet sat for family friends during vacations, making sure their pets are fed, safe, and given attention and care while they’re away. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care, I treat every pet like my own. I’m patient, attentive, and always willing to follow specific instructions, whether that’s routines, special care, or just giving extra love. I’m also very reliable and communicative, so you can always trust me, give feedback, ask for updates, and know your pet is in good hands. I recently moved back from college and currently have a very open and flexible schedule. Since I’m looking for a reliable, long-term job, pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I’m available most days and times to help out whenever needed. I’m dependable, easy to reach, and can adjust my schedule to make sure your pets are consistently cared for. I believe pets are most comfortable and secure in their own home environment, so I primarily focus on caring for them in the client’s home where they can stay in their normal routine and surroundings. This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling safe while their owners are away. If needed, I am also able to care for pets in my home. While my space is smaller and does not include a yard, it is clean, organized, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for comfort, play, and attention. I make sure they get lots of care, cuddles, and supervision. I also spend a lot of time outdoors myself, so if appropriate and safe for the pet, I can take them outside for fresh air and activity. No matter the setting, my priority is always safety, trust, and making sure each pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved.
“Everly and I were immediately impressed with meeting Megan. We both felt so comfortable right away. I love getting the pictures of the day they had together. Megan is very nice and such a blessing..I could tell right away that everly had a great time. Thank you so much!”
“Could not recommend highly enough. My fiancee and I are very picky when it comes to who looks after our dogs and hadn't been able to find a suitable boarder for over 2 years since moving to the area. I wish we would've found Angela sooner. We feel very comfortable knowing that our dogs are in the best hands possible and that their boarding/daycare surroundings are very similar to those they have in our own home. The dogs loved having a massive yard, tons of toys, and other dogs to play with. They were thoroughly worn out at the end of the day. Would highly recommend.”

Our dog Karma had a very nice playdate with Jennifer and her dog Daisy. Karma and Daisy became fast friends. It couldn't have gone smoother. I could see that Karma seemed at home as soon as we brought her to Jennifer's. Jennifer's home is clean and safe. She sent me photos and updates. My husband is a worry wort and now his mind is at ease leaving Karma. We would never hesitate to recommend her.
