Doggy Day Care in Hookerton

“It was so comforting to leave my puppy in the care of someone who is so clearly a dog person! She was patient with my timid pup and was kind enough to update me with photos on how the daycare visit was going. We’re already booked for another stay!”

“A last minute need for daycare turned into a fantastic 2 days where I will always use Summer for any future times my doggos need love, attention, and fun!”

Angena L.

“Ashley was very prompt in her responses. I apps her mindfulness of COVID and met me in the yard instead of her home. I loved the pictures of Rosie she sent me; it was very reassuring. I would definitely recommend Ashley for future services.”

Tonya M.

“Rachel is so wonderful. My puppy was happy when I picked her after daycare and slept really well from all of the playtime she had despite spending some time in the crate at my request. Rachel was very accommodating and helpful in keeping our routine and rules and was flexible when I needed to add an extra day last minute. I will most definitely book with her again and would trust her with my puppy any time without any reservation.”

About: I’ve had pets all my life. They love me and I love them. All my animals are basically my children, I’ll choose them over everyone else. Animals have always been my world , so precious. I’m always available for the fur babies. I do work but it’s our slow season so I’m home more than anything right now. They can come to me or I can go to them. As long as I get those babies , I don’t care where we are. If you want to bring your fur babies kennel , I have no problem using it. Other than that , I have no problem with animals being on the furniture and such.

“Seth and Ashley are wonderful! They have been taking care of my puppy (12 weeks old) while I go to work twice a week. They're attentive and patient, help me reinforce my training, and my pup loves getting to hang out with them. Definitely recommend them!”

About: 🐶 About Me: Hi, I’m Heather—an experienced, nurturing pet professional who has been surrounded by animals since before I could walk. From dogs and cats to birds, bunnies, and even rescued wildlife, I’ve dedicated my life to loving and caring for animals of all kinds. Before relocating to North Carolina, I was a star sitter in Boston, MA, where I built long-term relationships with many repeat clients who entrusted me with their beloved pets time and time again. My background in both teaching and animal care fuels my approach: structured, empathetic, and full of joy! I’ve worked with animals in all life stages, and I’m highly experienced in: • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Caring for seniors, puppies, and animals with special needs • Training dogs through behavioral challenges including leash reactivity, food aggression, and fear-based behaviors At home, I share my life with Gherkin, my brilliant 4-year-old Belgian Sheepdog who has completed Basic Obedience, Canine Good Citizen, and two levels of Scent Training, and Gunnar, a sweet Miniature Australian Shepherd who is currently mastering his obedience basics. Whether you need: • Boarding • In-Home Sitting • Drop-In Visits • Dog Walking …your pet will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m incredibly detail-oriented, quick to notice subtle changes in behavior or health, and I always strive to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and comforting as possible. Whether your companion is energetic and playful or shy and needing gentle care, I adjust my approach to meet their needs. I’ve also lived and worked around a wide variety of animals, including: 🐾 Bunnies, chinchillas, guinea pigs 🕊️ Birds 🐿️ Rehabilitated wildlife 🐕 Dogs with training or behavioral needs You can trust that your pet is in calm, capable, and loving hands with me. 📅 Availability As a Special Education Teacher, my school year has ended and I currently have open availability for pet care bookings. This includes weekdays, weekends, and holidays throughout the summer. My availability may shift slightly as I explore new professional opportunities, but I will always keep my calendar accurate and up to date. I remain committed to making time for both new and returning clients whenever possible. 🏠 How I Care for Pets in My Home and in Yours Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, you can expect attentive, personalized, and respectful care every step of the way. In My Home: I have a cozy home with a large yard—perfect for safe outdoor time and quick potty breaks. It is partially fenced. So, outdoor time will either occur on walks or on longlines. While the yard is large, I know most pets love a change of scenery, so we also enjoy leisurely walks, when appropriate, adventures to local parks H. Boyd isn't far) or dog parks. I always follow the owner’s preferences for activity level, routines, and socialization. Your pet will get plenty of affection, structured care, and attention—just like one of my own. In Your Home: When house sitting, I pride myself on being the most respectful guest you could ask for. I keep things tidy, follow all instructions to the letter, and am so focused on caring for your pet that your home may be cleaner than when you left it. I understand that your pet feels safest in their own space, so I work to maintain a calm, consistent environment while you’re away. Whether it’s watering plants, bringing in the mail, or keeping to a special feeding or medication schedule, I’ve got it covered. To be clear, as a house sitter, I do not stay overnight because I have my own dogs, but I stay as long as needed to ensure your furbabies are cared for (as mine can go for a long time). If you happen to book a house sitting when I don't have any other animals boarding, it is possible for me to stay overnight. I work out all the communication prior to your departure and stay in communication as much or as little as you request while you are away. Ultimately, I take my cues from you and your pet’s needs—always prioritizing comfort, safety, and peace of mind.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12. It all started when my mom’s friend couldn’t find the time to make sure her pup was happy. So she relied on me to make sure that her pup was happy. I love animals, I have my own and I make sure they get whatever it is they need even if it’s just cuddles. I am a college student, who is home for the summer and looking to earn some extra money. I currently do not have a job. I treat all pets with genuine love, gratitude, and affection. I will provide a comfortable and safe environment as well as the right amount of exercise.

About: My entire life has been endless pet care experience! I have lived with cats and dogs of all shapes, sizes, temperments, and ages. Currently living with my own two dogs and a cat, I understand the need for a trustworthy care taker for my babies. I care about the wellbeing of animals so much, I plan on going to vet school! There is no animal that is too much for me! I can do drop in vists through out the day as I have a few hours scattered through the day between classes and practice. If you needed longer daily walks, I could take your pet out in the morning and leave them tired for the day! I could also provide short boarding services to a dog or cat that is friendly with other animals. My own animals have been around various other animals and are well trained so as long as your pet is friendly they would get along great! Every animal is different and require diffreent treatment. I approach all animals and enviorments with understanding and patience, allowing the animal to communicate their needs in any given senario. I can adjust to various enviorments based on the animal's temperment and the owner's preferences!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and I currently have a sweet boy now who loves to cuddle with other furry friends. You pets happiness is top priority. As a full-time remote worker, I'm home all day to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just having someone nearby, your furry friend will never feel alone. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority! I have a spacious backyard where your pet can enjoy some fresh air and sunshine. While it's not fenced, rest assured — I’ll be outside with them at all times to ensure their safety during potty breaks or sunbathing sessions.

“I highly recommend Molly. She did an excellent job.”

About: I will love your dog as if it were my own. I have 2 springer spaniels that love to play. I can give special care for a dog that needs meds or has a special diet. I have had fur babies in the past that require special attention. I work a full time job out of my home so taking in dogs during the week is super easy as I’m home all day everyday. We have underground fencing otherwise your dog will go on a tie out. We have 2 entrances that can accommodate. I can also take crate trained dogs. If you don’t want to bring your kennel we have one to use as well.

About: I know how to adapt to each animal’s unique personality and routine. What sets me apart is the trust I build not only with pets but with their people. I provide daily updates, adorable photos, and peace of mind while you're away. Whether it's administering medication, going for long walks, or simply offering some extra love and belly rubs, I treat every pet like my own. This isn’t just a job, it's a loving passion! Pet care fits into my week really naturally. I'm in school with an easy schedule, so I’ve got the time that makes it easy to fit in morning walks, afternoon visits, or whatever your pet needs. Whether it’s dropping in to feed and play, going for a walk, or just keeping them company, I plan my day around making sure they’re happy and well cared for. Honestly, spending time with animals is the best part of my day—it never feels like a chore!! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at the client’s, I always try to make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible. In my home, I keep things calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to play and relax. I stick to their normal routines as much as I can—meals, walks, and bedtime, so it feels familiar to them. When I’m at a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own, making sure their pet gets lots of attention, exercise, and love. I follow any instructions closely and always leave the place just as I found it, if not better!

About: I have been a life long dog lover and equestrian. I have been with my horse Quincy for going on 13 years now and my dogs Daisy, for 6, and Olive, for 2. I would love to help your fur baby play all day! Most of my pet sitting experience is with larger dogs and I enjoy taking them on walks or just relaxing at home. I usually stick to a every three hour schedule for walking but will absolutely adjust to the needs of your pet. I am punctual and very attentive to the needs of your pet. I request pretty specific instruction so that I can give your dog the very best experience possible! I am comfortable in administering medications or sitting more than one of your pups at once! I do have a large yard that is currently not fenced in, but the area I live in has great paved sidewalks! I am very flexible right now and can make any schedule work! However I am instructed to care for them really. Some pups snooze all day. Some have shorts bursts of energy. Some will play outside for an hour then come in and play more. The level of care is entirely dependent on the pets personality and medical needs.
