Doggy Day Care in Ivoryton

“As always, Gunner's best friend Lauren spoiling him with love, treats, and fun at daycare. He's always so happy and tired when he comes home. Plus we got a little gift, which was totally unexpected and super thoughtful.”

“Joe and his wife were very friendly. They watched Shiloh for about 5 hours while we visited with friends in the area. At pick up, we could tell Shiloh enjoyed her visit and playtime with the family's dog.”

“MaryJo took our dog in at the last minute after another cancelation. Cody had the opportunity to spend time with her young son and baby and arrived home tired and happy”

“Thanks for getting some energy out of Echo while we work.”

“Samantha is a wonderful pet owner, as she has taken care of pets her whole life. I've seen nothing but love from her when she's around animals. She's not only a great person around animals, but people as well! You'll be happy to have her around!”

About: Hi, I enjoy all ages of dogs and cats. I have had many, many dogs and cats growing up raising them from newborn puppies or kittens all the way into their senior years. I am well experienced in training puppies, playing with active cats/dogs and caring for sick or aged pets as well. I have also volunteered for many rescue organizations, most recently Meriden Humane Society. The joy animals bring me, far surpasses any other career I've had throughout the years. I currently am transitioning into part-time retirement of running my own HVAC company and I would like to start doing what I enjoy more; caring for animals(and plants!). I currently have a very active, under one, golden retriever and a 6 year old golden retriever. We love to go outside and throw the ball, play in the wading pool, or let the dogs play together in the backyard.

About: My partner and I LOVE dogs of all kind. We have had our Reggie for 5 years now. Reggie is now 14 years old. We have an unfenced backyard but I will always have the dog on a leash at all times. I will also be bringing the dogs for a walk at least once a day. Dogs are welcome throughout the house. Dogs who stay overnight will be able to sleep on our bed or even on dog beds we have. Your dog will feel completely at home whether it is at my house or yours! I am currently on summer break so I am at home all day everyday. I will be with your dogs all day and will have plenty of time to let your dog out and explore. I will ensure that your dog is getting the necessary care needed whether that is health or safety. I will make sure that your dog is best cared during my visit or the entire time at my house.

“Chandra took great care of our dog. We will definitely use Chandra’s help again.”

About: IG @lauralovesyourdog We love animals! Energetic young humans and 6 year old pug will play with your dog until we collapse! We have a large unfenced yard with lots of sniffing and exploring space. The yard is regularly treated by Tick Ranger (organic and pet-safe tick spraying). Our space for overnight is a large room- crated or uncrated, or are welcome to sleep in the human bed of their choice. Dogs are welcome throughout the first floor during the day. Your dog will feel completely at home at my house or yours! We walk, play and hug. Grooming services unavailable. Unfortunately we can not take pit bulls, pit bull mixes, or border terriers. I am also a caring and experienced cat owner/ caretaker! We have 3 cats of our own (our 17 year old angel Maddy went to the Heaviside Layer June 2021💙) and will care for your cat in your home or ours. Dependable loving care always! And if that wasn’t enough I am also very comfortable feeding/ handling and caring for small reptiles including snakes. We have had our Herman’s tortoise Shelly Clarkson for 2 years and love her to death! Available most days- flexible schedule and I keep my Rover calendar updated. About me: 42 year old single mom, works occasionally as a stage manager and at The Place in Guilford. We hope to care for your furry family soon! *Please note I do have 2 kids (ages 9 and 5). Both kids are very aware and cautious in how to approach new animals but if your dog is not 100% comfortable with kids we are not the sitters for you. Thank you! I build my schedule around my clients. We like to keep a predictable routine for our guests. I am home most of the day most days! We have a partially fenced yard and all guests stay leashed and well supervised while out! Our pug Winston loves to play and snuggle with our guests. My other part- time jobs are seasonal so I am home and available most days November through May. When my seasonal jobs are active I still am able to take 2-3 clients visits a day around them! I am very good with animals and have very very rarely met one that wasn’t interested in being my friend. All of my repeat clients are always very happy to see me! 🥰 I am always cautious and respectful of your pets’ space and yours and always will leave your house cleaner than I found it! I go above and beyond to make sure your pets’ routine is disturbed as little as possible while you are gone and I make sure they are given extra affection (if they want it!) I will not hesitate to obtain emergency care (with your permission) if your pet needs it.

“Eautha took good care of my 2 year old dog Frankie while we were busy for the day. Her dogs and Frankie seemed to get along, and Frankie seemed healthy and happy when we got her back. We got periodic updates and Eautha kept her out of trouble!”

“Great individual that was very caring of my pup. He taught me a very valuable lesson when walking my dog. Walks are WAY better now. Thanks again Roger.”

“Great experience! Nicolette is amazing. I felt totally at ease leaving my little pup with her. She is confident while being relaxed and warm. Her experience shines through how she welcomed and provided a safe and fun time for my little fur buddy.”

“Thanks to Sarah - Spunky had a perfectly balanced (fun w/ balanced meals & relaxing) day today!”

“We call Jillian everytime we need a house sitter! She's very punctual and responsible, great with our pets (dogs and cats) too, definitely give her a call.”

“Tara and her husband watched my pug for a few hours while we hosted an engagement party at our house. They were sooo kind and kept me updated with cute photos the whole time. Their dog was so sweet and friendly. I would 100% trust them to watch June again — can’t recommend them enough! 😊”

About: I have been surrounded by animals all of my life including birds, snakes, cats and most notably dogs. My first dog was an eccentric Rottweiler that I had for 12 years so I have experience with big dogs with big personalities. I currently am a mommy to a lively 2-year old German Shepard mix named Micky that I’ve had since he was 4 months old so I am also experienced in the puppy phase. We love going outside, walking trails or even cuddling up to a good movie. We can’t wait to meet your dog and treat him like a member of the family! I am currently free weekends with an open availability and most evenings on the weekdays. Please feel free to send me a message to see if I can meet your scheduling needs! I have a friendly dog if your pup likes company. I can also crate your pup if requested and take them to potty as needed!

“We loved having Heidi watch our pups! She was professional and caring! Sent us photos and when my pups returned I can tell they had the best time based on how tired they were! We will gladly be using her again!”

“I have watched Amanda handle both dogs and cats. She is sensitive with both, warm and caring, but can also be firm if(particularly a big dog) needs that. Cats seem to sense something in her pheromones as they just melt to her. I watched her work her 150lb Newfoundland in our agility class and she was very consistent and caring with him. I think you would find her a special and more than responsible person with essentially any animal.”

“Carley Van Buiten is one of the most conscientious girls I know. She takes every job she’s given very seriously. On top of that she has kind and loving heart Her empathy abounds and she is understanding to what others need especially her furry friends. She has two dogs and four cats and is an Intercal part of caring for them. She’s responsible for feeding them, cleaning up after them, playing with them and giving them attention. She has an especially good relationship with her larger dog who has become very attached to her and she to him. Sometimes I think she knows what he is thinking. I would highly recommend Carley for dog sitting.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life personal and professionally from walks to curling up on the couch I am open to helping however I can.
