Doggy Day Care Howell

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who understands how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pet. I currently have my own active Dalmatian, so daily walks, exercise, routines, and plenty of attention are already a big part of my life. I’ve also started building recurring Rover relationships and have experience with regular weekday walks and drop-in care. I’m comfortable following specific routines, handling energetic dogs, and adjusting walks or visits based on each dog’s personality and needs. I’m reliable, active, communicative, and treat every dog like I’d want someone to treat my own. I’m especially happy to work with repeat clients and become a familiar, trusted part of your dog’s routine. I work from home and would love to give my dalmatian, Bennie Mae, a walk with a new friend! Also, my schedule is very flexible. We have a dog-proof home with plenty of space to run and play. Nearby park with room to roam outside. Wonderful neighborhood to go on walks.

About: - I've grown up with three dogs and have trained all of them from their puppy ages - I can help administer medication whether it's in pill or liquid form - I can help take care pets with illness that need more attention and special care I'm currently working from home Tuesdays - Fridays and have the space to watch your fur baby while you're out. I know from personal experience how hard it can be to leave your pet at home all day so I would like to help others feel comfortable about leaving their pet to go to work or vacation! As for a pet friendly environment, I have a fenced in dog park at my apartment complex that I can take your fur baby to. There are also long walking trails near me I can take them on. One thing to mention is that I have a small Maltipoo male with me that I've raised since he was a puppy, and he's so friendly with all dogs. Your dog will have a play mate or if you'd rather your pet be separate from other animals, arrangements can be made to accommodate you and your pet!

About: I have experience sitting for dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies and even fish. At one household I cared for two senior labs, five cats, one bunny, and a fish. Aside from this, I’ve watched small dogs as well. A terrier and miniature Doberman for my grandparents, as well as their parakeet. I grew up with several fish in our family fish tank, a medium-sized dog, and three hamsters. I have pet sat for a few other friends who had larger dogs and even worked with a therapy dog at one of my previous jobs. I was always the kid handing out flyers to pet sit in my neighborhood and now I'd love to do it professionally. I am currently working part-time 3 days a week. The other four days I am entirely available to visit or care for your fur babies. If you’re boarding with me on one of the days I’ll be at work, they will still be well taken care of by my pet-loving husband who works from home! It will all depend on your needs! I will care for your pet how you instruct me to. I promise to love them as if they were my own, you can rely on me!

About: I've had and helped care for many different animals since I was a child including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and chickens. We have 2 little boys in our home as well as a laid back newfoundland dog and 2 cats. Can administer medicine if needed and will try every trick in the book if needed to make it happen. I work part time from home so I will be home almost 24/7 besides the occasional errands. Animals can be with me as much as they would like. Dogs can be taken out and walked as often as needed. Animals can be allowed the run of the house or we also have a seperate downstairs area when some alone time is preferred or needed. Cats can be enclosed in a large quiet room with a tall gate if they prefer with seperate litter box. Crates are available for use upon request.

“Wonderful set up. Can tell our pup had a ton of fun! Thank you for taking such good care of him. You made drop off and pick up so easy. We will definitely be back!”

“Margret is incredibly responsive and took phenomenal care of Griffin! We’ll be back — I definitely recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!”

“So very nice! This was an unplanned trip for a family emergency. I was so lucky that Catherine was available last minute. She was very flexible regarding my needs to visit someone in hospital. My dog was very happy at her home. It was a relief to know he was being taken care of so well. Highly recommend.”

“Debra was great! Her space for dogs is wonderful and she was communicative about plans and what we needed to bring. I really appreciated her being willing to have our puppy, Milo over!”

About: I have 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including puppies and seniors! Over the years, I’ve cared for pets belonging to family, friends, neighbors, and my own private clients, as well as working professionally with a pet-sitting company. Through these experiences, I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs with all kinds of personalities, routines, and individual needs. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and understand that they may need extra patience, gentleness, and attention. Whether that means taking a slower walk, enjoying some fresh air in a stroller, administering medication, or simply keeping them company, I’m always happy to accommodate their needs. As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pup. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, and preferences so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Your fur babies will always be treated with the same love, patience, and care I give my own!!! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life! Along with pet sitting, I also babysit part-time, which allows me to maintain a fairly flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. As a dog mom myself, I'm already used to planning my days around walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love and attention! I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I do my best to accommodate each pet's needs and maintain their normal routine, so they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their family is away. I always make sure I have the time and availability to give every pet the attention and care they deserve! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I want you to feel confident knowing they're in loving hands. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where they feel like part of the family. Although I don't have a fenced-in yard, I make up for it with multiple walks throughout the day, plenty of fresh air, playtime, and lots of love and attention! Dogs are always kept on a leash when outside to ensure their safety. I also have a dog of my own, Theo, who can stay with my family during stays if needed. When caring for pet in their own homes, I always respect their space and do my best to maintain their usual routines. Whether that's following specific feeding instructions, taking their favorite walking route, or simply give them a little extra reassurance, I want them to feel as comfortable and secure as possible. I also love sending pictures and updates throughout our time together! I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy, safe, and being well care for while you're away. My goal is to give every pet the same love, patience, and kindness I would want for my own!

“Nicholas has been very flexible and accommodating with our weekly day care schedule. Our 6 month old puppy, bruce, also loves hanging out with AJ and the other dogs! Highly Recommend!”

“Great experience. Laura was waiting for Bryce and greeted him immediately. She sent pictures within an hour and I could tell he was behaving as always. Very comforting. And topper I sent a message when we would be there for pickup and she had him watching at the front door. Nice transition. I’m hopeful to use her frequently while I’m in town.”

About: I’ve always had a dog or cat in my home! Growing up we always had a Golden Retriever :) My most recent dogs were two senior Chihuahua sisters I adopted and one Olde English Bulldog. They have all crossed the rainbow bridge and though I’m not ready to get another pet, I miss having them in my life. One of my seniors had diabetes so I’m trained at administering insulin as well. I’m a stay at home mom of two little boys I share with their dad, though when I have dogs stay with me they stay with their father. For boarding, I live in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of other dogs and great sidewalks for strolls or power walks if needed. I enjoy going for daily long walks myself would love the company. For walks at your home, I never skimp on time outside or if weather doesn’t permit, extra fun and love inside.

About: I’ve been caring for loving animals since I was 11, and over the years, family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk and look after their pets with consistent compassion, patience, and genuine affection. I’m currently working part-time so I’m home throughout the week. I’m available to pet sit, dog walk or provide a midday potty break. Mostly during the week however my schedule is flexible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, provide gentle companionship, keep their environment clean and comfortable, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their family is away.

“My little Chihuahua enjoyed another fun stay with Beth today. Her two dogs are great playmates for my pup and her large securely fenced back yard is perfect for running and playing. Rudy is always happy to go stay at Beth’s house!”
