Doggy Day Care Kathleen

About: I’m a responsible, loving, and attentive pet caretaker who treats every animal like my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet cuddle time, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. With experience and genuine love for animals, I’m committed to giving them the attention and affection they deserve while you're away. I also provide you with updates through texts with pictures! I am a stay at home mom with a furbaby of our own, and I have complete open availability for overnight stays and play dates! "We have a large fenced in backyard that offers plenty of space for play and relaxation, nestled in a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac. Our friendly 2 yr old Golden Retriever, Lucy, loves to play fetch and welcomes new friends with a wagging tail. Pets are treated like family in our home-they're welcome on our oversized sectional. Fresh water is always available, along with treats (with your permission), and a variety of toys to keep them entertained and happy

“Being our first time little our little pups for the first time, we were quite nervous and worried about leaving them for the day in a new environment. We were very quickly put as easy with Karla's amazing, calm and caring nature and obvious genuine love of animals. Our dogs took to her straight away and not only were ok for the day, but had an associate blast with Karla and her little Coco. She sent us updates, photos and videos that made us feel beyond at ease, but so happy that our little ones were having a great time! ☺️ We are delighted to have Karla as an amazing person to look after our pooches at times we need to be away in the future as we know they will have the best care and it actually be an enjoyable, fun adventure for them! Cannot recommend and thank Karla enough for her brilliant care and genuine love and gift she has for animals ☺️?”

“Patricia was awesome! She was so loving and caring to our “Nervous Nellie”, Cinder, a cocker spaniel with issues. Patricia communicated throughout the day with messages and pics. It was a wonderful experience and we would certainly give her 6 stars if we could.”

Patty G.

“From the moment we dropped off our pup, I felt completely at ease. My dog was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She sent regular updates with photos and messages, which meant the world to me and gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. I will definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”

“Maria took excellent care of Archie while dog sitting at her home. She provided regular updates, which gave me peace of mind, and it was clear Archie was not only happy during his stay but also excited to go back the next day! I'm very pleased with her service and will definitely be booking her again to look after Archie.”

“Megan was more than accommodating! She agreed to meet with me prior to Zoey’s day of daycare, and I was immediately out at ease. I knew Zoey would be in the best hands, and she absolutely was! Megan has a big yard for Zoey to run around and play, and Megan was great about sending pictures throughout the day. I would highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a home away from home for their fur baby. I will absolutely be booking with Megan again!”

About: I am almost done with my CVA, which has given me hands-on experience with animal care and a strong understanding of animal behavior, basic health needs, and how to recognize when a pet may be stressed, uncomfortable, or need extra attention. I’m very attentive to routines like feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific care instructions you have for your pet. I also volunteered at a horse rescue for 6 years, which has helped me become even more patient and comfortable working with animals that all have different personalities and needs. Whether your pet is a playful puppy who needs consistency and extra energy or an older pet who needs a gentler approach, I’m confident in providing calm, dependable care and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I currently attend CVA school Monday through Thursday from 6-10 PM, and because it’s a veterinary program, I’m able to bring new animals with me every day if that’s something an owner is comfortable with. This allows me to spend even more time with your pet and keep them with me throughout the day. Outside of school, I’m available the rest of the day and can realistically spend most, if not all, of my time with your pet. I also care for my own animals every day, including my dogs, cat, and reptiles—a snake, bearded dragon, turtle, and leopard gecko—so feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, cleaning cages, and keeping their spaces clean are all part of my normal routine. My entire day is basically centered around animals between school and caring for my own pets, so pet sitting fits very naturally into my life. I care for pets with a lot of attention, and fun! I usually feed my pets at the same time every day and follow a schedule, but I keep it flexible so it works for each pet’s needs. I give dry food and simple medications like NexGard but, I also have experience handling special diets and other medications.     Playtime happens whenever pets seem bored or want to go outside. I have lots of toys, treats, and fun activities inside, and I enjoy running with dogs outside or taking them on car rides. I also do some basic training for fun, though I’m not a professional trainer.   I keep spaces clean and comfortable, cages and tanks are cleaned regularly, puppy pads are replaced, and everything is wiped down with disinfectant as needed. Pets have their own quiet areas, toys, and treats to feel calm and safe. I’m very observant of their behavior, so I can notice when something feels off.    Pets aren’t left alone for long, except when I’m at school for a few hours. I’m used to managing multiple pets at once by keeping a close eye on everyone and giving each animal their own space when needed. My home is very clean, and I constantly sweep, mop, and vacuum.    Overall, I make sure pets are happy, safe, and comfortable, and I treat them as part of my family giving lots of love, attention, and care every day.

“Angie is the sweetest and truly loves all the fur babies as her own! I am very pleased with doggy day care our sweet mini poodle received! Angie sent several videos which put my heart at ease while I was away. Highly recommend 👍🏼”

“Melinda was truly amazing! I needed a last minute pet sitter and she responded quick. She was incredibly kind and flexible. She shared photo updates of my pup throughout the day, and he looked like he was having a great time, it was awesome he got to interact with other friendly dogs too. I felt comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. I highly highly recommend Melinda to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“We will miss Maria so much now that we’ve moved away. She was the most special person, and our dogs absolutely adored here. Bruno and Bailey will miss you so much Maria. We hope to see you again soon!”
