Doggy Day Care in Jacobs Corner

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve had my own dogs for many years and grew up around dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. In addition, I did dog sitting for neighbors and families for several years when I was younger, helping with walking, feeding, and daily care. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs that need patience and clear routines, including leash training and behavioral challenges. Dogs are family members to me, and I always treat them with love, structure, and respect. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable in my care. I’m very flexible and spend a lot of time at home. I work partly from home and partly in the office, but my schedule allows me to adapt easily to a dog’s needs. Dogs are rarely left alone, and I can adjust my routine to provide plenty of attention, walks, and companionship. Dogs in my care are treated like family. They are allowed to relax freely in my home, including on the couch. I live with two small dogs, so it’s important that visiting dogs are friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I do not accept aggressive dogs to ensure a safe and peaceful environment for everyone.

“Good communication with Julissa to set up Tuck's stay, and then throughout the day.”

“Laura was wonderful and made sure my Goomba was very well taken care of and attended to, taking him on multiple walks and socializing him when they could. Sent me updates that made me feel at ease for this was my first time using this service. I’m glad my pup had the best time with her, I will definitely be back :)”

About: I treat every pet like family and my own, giving patient, loving care. I’m experienced with puppies, adults, seniors, and pets who need extra attention, comfort, and reassurance. I recently graduated college with my nursing degree, and while I’m waiting to take my state licensing exam, pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I’ve grown up caring for family members’ pets, and pet sitting is something I truly enjoy and feel comfortable doing. I’m able to be flexible, attentive, and fully present with each pet’s needs during this time. I care for pets by following their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding on schedule, and medication if needed. I keep a clean, calm environment and always prioritize safety, comfort, and individual needs, whether that means energetic play or quiet companionship.

“Gaby is the best person for the job! She's interested in dog training, has everything my dog needs, and goes above and beyond to care for her. Also playtime with her dog is the best! I always get Echo back smelling like fall candles and tired out in a good way.”

About: I have a lifetime of animal care and knowledge to offer and am an experienced ICU/ER vet tech so am available for special needs cases as well. I have worked with exotics and farm animals as well as dogs and cats. I also offer nail trims, bathing, ear cleaning and medication administration at additional charges. I have experience with hard to work with animals and have experience with dog training and special interest in animal behavior. I have a fairly open availability right now, as I am attending college online. I am available to stay overnight and come with great recommendations. I know pet CPR, and am well trained to care for geriatric or diabetic animals. I wouldn’t want to spend my days with anyone but your little guys!

About: Besides caring for my own dog for nearly 13 years, including nearly a year of hospice care, I also have experience volunteering at animal sanctuaries and cat-sitting for roommates and neighbors. I consider companion animals to be family members, and the care I provide reflects that belief. I work from home, and my schedule is flexible, so I’m easily able to accommodate anything an animal in my care needs. I can provide multiple walks, feedings, and potty breaks a day, whether at your house or mine. Because I work remotely, I’m able to keep your dog or cat company all day. I have a fenced backyard, though it’s small, and I live near a dog park. I have a small crate and a larger soft-sided kennel that can be used if that’s something that makes your dog feel more comfortable; otherwise, pets are free to roam and are welcomed on furniture. I have steps to help smaller or senior dogs get on the couch, and there’s a dog bed in every room of my house.

“Kalin was great! She was so courteous and accommodating to watch Tippy on such short notice, even without a meet and greet. She took great care of him, was very responsive, and kept me updated throughout his stay. Highly recommend!”

“This was our first experience using the service. Jiajie provided excellent care and regular updates. She was knowledgable and gave us good suggestions.”

About: I have been around pets ever since I can remember and probably had around 10 in my life so far. I’ll be attentive, caring and sweet with your little friends, bringing them the comfort and calm they need when you’re not home ❤️ I’m currently a student at UC Davis with a part-time job, so I will be available for pet sitting every other day normally after 12pm (noon) I can easily find a space in your home where the pet feels more at comfort and I’ll act quickly and proactively when I notice something is needed.

About: I’ve always had family pets and have a dog of my own now. I will follow your pets schedule and always make sure they have water and get lots of love and care. I am home Friday-Sunday and can go home for lunch Wednesday and Thursday. And I can drop in frequently on days that I am available. I love my dog and she’s one of the family. I don’t want her to be alone long and would care for your pets like my own. I have a fenced yard. Dogs are allowed on the furniture.

“Emma was great with our pups! She watched them while we attended a full day commitment of graduation and dinner. She was caring and communicative, and we're so appreciative. Thank you, Emma!”

Shannon L.

“Alayna agreed to watch my pooch last minute while I attended a conference. She was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. Henry had a fantastic time and was exhausted when I got him back, which was perfect for the ride home. I will definitely reach out again if I’m in Davis and need pet care!”
