Doggy Day Care Joseph Barry

“Our pup had a great time with Natalia and her family. She was so happy she didnt want to leave and was so tired from playing all day. Highly recommend, we will definitely rebook with her!”

“Tara took great care of our dog Marvin—this was the second time they’ve watched him, and both experiences have been excellent. They were responsive, reliable, and clearly have a natural way with animals. Marvin was happy and relaxed when we picked him up and excited to return for his second stay, which says a lot. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Tara again and highly recommend them as a sitter.”

About: I’m not just a dog sitter—I’m a calming, comforting presence your pup can rely on. With patience, affection, and a natural ability to put dogs at ease, I create an stress-free, loving environment that feels like home. Ps. I own a 6 months old mini Aussie. He’s 15 pounds and very playful and friendly with other dogs ◡̈ I currently work from home with flexible hours so I have plenty of time to spare. My daily routine allows me to manage being available and home to take care of the pups I provide a safe, calm, and dependable environment where pets feel completely secure. I prioritize consistency, gentle handling, and close attention to each pet’s needs, creating a trustworthy space where they can relax, feel understood, and thrive while you’re away.

About: Hi, my name is Brandon and I am a first year Masters student studying Biomedical Engineering. Animals have been a part of my life since my earliest memories. I've raised birds, turtles, snakes, iguanas, hamsters, cats and of course dogs. Whether your pup needs hours of fetch and park adventures or gentle walks and medication management, I adapt to their unique needs, diets, and energy level. I work from home and between myself and my girlfriend, it is rare for me to leave my pet alone for more than 1 hr. I have easy access to numerous parks within walking distance including Belle Isle. Your pet will not be starved for attention. My goal is to make your dog’s time with me feel like a happy stay-cation. Expect daily walks, individualized attention, plenty of rest when needed, and regular photo updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands With years of experience across all breeds and temperaments, I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new. I'm here to make that experience stress-free for both you and your dog, providing the reliable, communicative, and loving care they deserve. I welcome questions, meet-and-greets, and will always aim to make you and your pet feel comfortable and confident. Working from home affords me the time and flexibility to give my high maintenance corgi the attention she deserves. She’s rarely alone for more than one hour at a time. The first and most important step in caring for a new dog is to establish trust. As an experienced caregiver, I've learned that patience and compassion form the foundation of developing that all-important bond. Sixx is a great help in this endeavor as she is a very friendly dog and loves making new playmates. My place is fitted with webcams so you can check in on your pet and let them hear your voice. If your dog is crate-trained and finds it easier to adapt to a new environment through this method, I have one that can accommodate most sizes.

“Karen was a great help with Luna when I unexpectedly had to leave the dog home alone for a VERY long day. She came over to give her cuddle and pee breaks and a trip to Barkside, Luna’s home away from home. 💕 Even went the extra mile to clean up a little dog mess. Thanks!!!!!”

“Jessica was amazing with our new puppy! She was able to accommodate us on short notice, which we really appreciated. She walked him, fed him, played with him, and even introduced him to other little puppies so he could socialize. She greeted me warmly and treated both of us with such kindness. Our pup came home happy and tired from all the fun. We will definitely be coming back!”

“David Rafael and his wife were wonderful with my boy. They were very tentative and kept me posted all day. Leo is slow to taking but I can tell they became FAST friends. He was gracious with Leo in every capacity. He was easy going about pickup and drop off times. I'll absolutely be booking with him again!”
