Doggy Day Care in Johannesburg

“Karen and her family are absolutely wonderful! She gives us such piece of mind with her knowledge and experience with dogs. I’m an anxious dog mom and I have never once questioned the high quality of care she provides. Wonderful as always - she is our top choice of sitter!”

About: I’ve had pets in my life since I was a child. When married and had kids, we’ve always had dogs and have cared for our dogs in every aspect, walking, bathing, grooming, vet care, etc. Currently we don’t have a pet, but our house is a perfect set up to take care of yours. Currently we are retired. We would have plenty of time to go for walks, play and relax. Our dogs in the past have used our very convenient doggy door into a fenced area for potty breaks. Your dog will be treated like one of our own, getting lots of love and attention during the day and can sleep overnight in a doggy bed or crate whichever is preferred.

“Sandy is the best person to care for your dog while you’re away. She takes the time to find out about your dog before she takes care of them. It’s obvious that she truly loves caring for dogs. I know my little guy will miss all of the love she gave him in my absence. Lisa L.”

“This was the first time we used Rover. We left Gunner for a daycare day to start. Carolyn and Kristopher were great with Gunner. Carolyn wrote down all the details of Gunner’s normal routine and his particular needs. He came home very tired which was a win. We will be using them again in February for a longer stay. So thankful we found such wonderful people to leave him with.”

“Orlando and Nicki were very responsive and accommodating. They were welcoming and hospitable. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with them and they took very good care of our pet.”

“Amanda watched my dog on a few hours notice for our wedding, and it was such a relief that he was in good care! She was so flexible and easygoing and our dog definitely had a blast!”

About: My husband and I have owned 4 “rescued” dogs and one purebred during our 18 years together. We loved them all unconditionally and enjoyed all the time we had with them. We each had dogs in our prior 30 years of childhood and raising children. They were all amazing pets and we loved them as family. We had great friends who were able to take care of our dogs when we needed to go away and we are so thankful for that. I was never able to consider putting one in a kennel. We enjoy travel and cannot commit to year round, long-term pet ownership/care. Becoming a pet sitter is the best way to fill that huge void of having our own dogs. I dont miss an opportunity to say hello to a dog passing by on the sidewalk, admire from a distance as we’re waiting at a stoplight or any public place. Caring for your special fur-baby will be my privilege. My motivation is purely related to having dogs around to love and care for. I cannot wait to love, care for and protect your special family member! I will be glad to share pictures and updates with you to put you at ease while you are away. We know how important it is when you entrust your family member to others. For first time stays and especially long term stays, we would welcome an initial visit to meet your special family member and let you see the surroundings where your pet will be cared for. NOTE: I am very sorry to note that I have allergies so we can only accept hypoallergenic dogs for care in our home. So sorry, we love them all, but I am unable to care for other breeds in our home. I work from home Monday-Friday. I am an early riser on the weekends as well. My husband and I are available all days of the week to care for dogs. We love to have dogs on our lap or at our side. We cannot wait to meet yours and care for yours. I do not have any pets in the home and we will lovingly be with your pet at all times, including while we take them outside for a walk or potty breaks. I want to hear all about your pets daily activities and things that are important to you and your dog in their daily living. We understand the importance of dietary needs specific to each animal and will absolutely honor your requests specific to daily food plans and treats.

About: We just lost our beloved Pitbull of 10 years in December. While not ready to own a new dog, I would love to be around them! I’m very active and would love to take your dog for a nice long walk and give them all the pets and snuggles needed! I’m currently a stay at home mom and have a lot of time during the day to hang with your pet! I am typically home all day. We live on 5 acres but do not have a fence. Our dog was trained to stay in the yard. We have a long tie out for dogs if they do not stay in the yard.

“Jennifer was a great host and very helpful. We would definately recommend her.”

About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life and am grateful for the companionship they bring. I can provide a safe and loving environment while you are away. I am also familiar with special needs dogs, puppies and seniors. I work from home and am available to help care for your beloved pets while you are away. I also own a small dog and a cat, so I take frequent trips outside for exercise and bathroom breaks. I have a fenced yard and go on daily walks. I love dogs and will spend time watching over your dog in a safe and nurturing environment. I also have a small dog that would enjoy making friends if your dog would enjoy that.

“Our dog Aggie had a great time with Julie! When we booked, she asked if Aggie would be ok having another dog around. We said Yes and the two Cockapoos had a wonderful day together. We appreciated Julie being willing to take on a second dog since we were asking last minute.”

“Krista is SIMPLY THE BEST (yes, hear Tina Turner belting this out in your head 😄)! Our dog, Finn, loves her so much and has a great time with her three sweet dogs every time he goes to her place. Krista is incredibly kind and attentive, and we always appreciate the adorable photos of Finn she sends!”

“Kea and her daughter Hailey did a fabulous job with my 10 week old puppy. It allowed us a family night out without worry! I will definitely book with them again.”

About: I have experience in feeding, grooming, walking, administering medication, and ensuring a safe environment for dogs since childhood. This began with my family dogs, which taught me the importance of love and patience with our furry family members, and this mentality has continued into my adult life with my own pups. I can’t wait to have pawsome adventures with your pet 😊 I am a stay at home momma so I have a lot of availability and flexibility all week long for boarding, daycare, check ins, etc. I have a yard with 3 friendly fur babies of my own to keep your pet company! I also have endless tough chewer toys to keep your pup’s tail wagging!

About: Hi everyone, Sherry here.. wife, mom, grandma, dog and cat mom. I have room in my heart and home to care for your precious furry one! Home is my happy place; with husband Greg, dog Daisy, and cats Merv and Stella. I work from home and have the ability to let dogs out regularly. We have a 4.5 acres property, a 40'x40'x6' fenced area, and a large climate controlled pole barn to play in when it's too hot/cold, outside. We live in a quiet neighborhood for leashed walks. Working from home allows me to let the dogs out as needed. We have quiet times where pups can rest and I can get a few things done, then back outside to play. We love leisurely walks, playing tug, cooling off in the sprinkler, and playing fetch. When its too hot we have frozen engagement toys, and a cool pole barn for some play time. In winter months the pole barn is heated for more play time. ***If you will be away for several days and have cats, too, I'm not able to board kitties, but I am willing to visit them, feed, water, and clean their litter boxes, for an extra fee. I need to figure out how to list this in the app.

“She responded immediately to our last-minute request to take our dog for the day. She let us know what to expect and how she would feed Aggie. She was willing to keep her even longer than I requested, since we weren't sure when we would be back. She even offered to walk her out to the car under an umbrella during the storm! Aggie came back to us happy and tired out. I'm so glad we booked with Elizabeth W!”

“Rachel has been watching my 5 month old wheaten terrier puppy a few times a week and he LOVES her. He is so happy and excited to see her which is a clear indicator that he gets lots of love and attention when he’s with her! She is super communicative and always keeps me up to date with photos throughout the day, as well as with general status/progress notes [and without me having to ask, which has really alleviated any additional stress that might come with leaving your fur baby!]. I have an unpredictable schedule and she has also been very flexible and accommodating with last minute requests and changes. Highly recommend - so grateful I found her!
