Doggy Day Care in Howard

“Polly stayed with Tyila and her family for doggy day care and it was a wonderful experience. My pup enjoyed the attention of the children and also got to play with their pups. A win-win all the way around. Thanks so much. Already sent my next booking.”

“Polly had her first visit with Ms. Debbie and it was a success. Communication was awesome. Drop off and pick up was super easy. Received an update and photo of my pup during the visit. Just an all around great experience. Highly recommended.”

About: I have over 15 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, Pit Bulls, Australian Cattle Dogs (Blue Heelers), Bull Terriers, Cane Corsos, and Boston Terriers. I am comfortable with large, powerful breeds as well as small companion dogs. In addition to caring for family pets and dogs belonging to friends and neighbors, I was entrusted with the care of the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team (3ABCT), 1st Armored Division Bulldog Mascot while Soldiers were away for training. This experience required reliability, consistency, and attention to the dog’s daily needs and well-being. As a military veteran, I understand the importance of responsibility, trust, and clear communication. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, exercise, playtime, and ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need throughout the day. With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, providing a safe, structured, and loving environment has become second nature to me. As a military veteran, I value consistency, reliability, and attention to detail. Whether caring for my own pets or those entrusted to me, I make sure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, supervision, and routine care. I enjoy spending time outdoors, which makes daily walks and active play a natural part of my lifestyle. Pet care is not an interruption to my routine, it is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and two friendly, well socialized dogs who can provide companionship if your dog enjoys interacting with others. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and routines. Pets in my care are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. If your dog prefers their own space, I can easily separate or crate them when needed to ensure a safe, stress free environment for everyone.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. I provide a loving, patient environment where every animal feels safe, happy, and well-cared-for, ensuring their routines, exercise, and comfort are a top priority. As a homeschool family, we’re home throughout the day, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Our flexible schedule allows us to include walks, feeding, and cuddle time naturally in our daily rhythm—your pet becomes part of our family’s routine. We have two dogs, Balto and Bayleigh. They are friendly and love meeting new friends. We live on 25 acres, and have cultivated a friendly environment for dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. 😊

About: I’ve had pets my whole life! I’m experienced with cats (including neonatal kittens), dogs, amphibians, reptiles, rodents, lagomorphs, arthropods and freshwater fish. Whether your dog is high energy or a couch potato, I am happy and able to meet their unique needs! I’m a full time stay at home mom to two dogs, a hamster, a blue tongue skink and even a human child. I am always available to tend to your pets needs. I can accommodate any requests surrounding caring for your pet in your home. If you’d prefer to bring them to me, they will be given around the clock care and attention with frequent updates. If your pet is not dog-friendly, they will be kept in their own separate room away from my dogs. If they are dog friendly, they are welcome to play with the whole family!

About: I have experience with a variety of pet sitting jobs, and in my previous Home Health Care work, part of my responsibilities included caring for clients’ pets. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, providing daily care, attention, and love to animals while they wait for their forever homes. Currently, I’m working toward a trainer certificate to further enhance my skills and provide the best care and guidance for pets. I have an amazing and flexible job working from home, so I’m able to provide care fairly easily in between my calls for work. I am usually at home and am dedicated to providing company and the best care needed for your pet individually. I also respect my clients pets and I do not board other clients animals at the same time. I do one family in my home at a time because you never know how a pet could interact with another person’s pet in a negative way. Regardless of what your needs are, please don’t hesitate to ask me! We can work together to create a plan that’s easy for both you and your pet. I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routine, and preferences so that I can provide care that feels just like home. Their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.

About: Your baby will have my sole attention as I only board one dog at a time, unless other pets are from the same family. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, puppies and older. I have given senior care to all of my wonderful dogs in my past. Currently, I have no pets. I have worked with House Sitters America for years. I spent two weeks in Albuquerque, NM, taking care of two big dogs in the pet owners’ home. The owners left on vacation and hired me to take care of their pets and home while they were gone. I have also spent two weeks twice in Cheyenne, WY, taking care of two small dogs while the parents were away. They hired me in the winter, then again in the summer. I have hired Rover sitters for many years, all over the United States - from Washington State to Maine, to Texas, and to Georgia, as I traveled, and I know what I appreciated from each sitter and will give you the same care and services. I am retired so have plenty of time to take care of your beautiful pets. I love dogs and they will feel right at home with me. I have a spacious, fenced-in yard where they can run freely - always under my supervision. I also have a small fenced, grassy, doggy area with a doggy door on the side of my house. I will spend most of my time with your pet. They entertain me as much as I entertain them.

About: I have 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals and have worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Families, friends, and neighbors consistently trust me to provide dependable and attentive care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining structured daily routines. In addition to dogs and cats, I am also comfortable caring for reptiles and other small animals. I understand the importance of proper habitat maintenance, feeding schedules, and careful handling to ensure their health and safety. I have experience with puppies, high-energy dogs, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or reassurance. I prioritize consistency, safety, and clear communication, and I always provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. Every pet in my care is treated with respect, attentiveness, and genuine love. I have open availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including boarding, drop-ins, and extended stays. I am available weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I can adjust to your pet’s established routine to ensure consistency and comfort. My priority is providing dependable care and being accessible when my clients need support. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard as well as a secure outdoor fenced playpen area to allow for safe exercise and supervised outdoor time. Inside the home, pets are monitored closely and kept in a clean, structured environment. I am able to crate if requested and will always follow your specific instructions regarding routines, feeding, and supervision. I focus on creating a calm, secure, and stress-free environment so your pet feels comfortable and cared for at all times.

“Well my mom didn't complain to me and she actually left her dog so I think this was a success story for Mt mom and her dog. I booked this appointment as a trial and everything was great. Looking forward to having my moms dog visit again soon.”
