Doggy Day Care Koolman

“Ruben was wonderful with Milo! He was very accommodating, reliable, and always quick to respond. He kept me updated while Milo was with him and sent pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Milo was doing well and being taken care of. What really stood out to me was how comfortable Milo became with Ruben. After only a short time, Milo started recognizing Ruben’s car when he pulled up and would willingly and happily go with him. Milo definitely lets me know when he doesn’t want to go somewhere, so seeing him excited and comfortable going with Ruben told me everything I needed to know. I could tell he was loved, comfortable, and very well cared for. Ruben also really helped me out by being dependable and accommodating when I needed him. I truly appreciate the care he gave Milo and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet. We will definitely be using Ruben again! 🐾❤️”

“I highly recommend Michael to anyone that wants someone that will spend quality time with your pup(s) while you are away. This was my first time to use Rover for Marly & Charmin, and I’m so glad I found Michael!! I signed up hoping to find someone that would show them lots of attention when I’m out of town. I am that dog mom that has as much separation anxiety, as my dogs usually do when I leave them. When I left them at Michael’s, I knew they had already made a new friend. Michael sent me several pics through the stay and it was obvious that both pups had already made themselves right at home. This was the first time in 10 years, I felt completely comfortable that they were ok while I was away. When I arrived to pick them up, they were not anxious to leave and kept going back to Michael to be petted. Michael will be my go-to person from now on for doggy day care or boarding when I’m away from home.”

About: I've had pets my entire life. I have experience with dogs, cats, snakes, lizards and other small animals. I can administer medicine to friendly animals, and cleanliness, kindness and communication are my priorities. I am currently a full-time online graduate student and am therefore usually very flexible. My daily routine involves taking my child to and from school and sports. For in-home boarding, I have a fenced yard and a separate indoor/outdoor space for my own kitties to remain separate from your pet. Small dogs can enjoy hanging with me and/or playing outside during the day. I'm always up for lap cuddles! I prefer to crate the dog during night-time hours, from about 10pm until 6:30am.

About: I have Had so many dogs since i was Little but was sad when i had To give them away and hope to take care of as many dogs as possible i love To cook special treats for dogs to make them stay healthy and just having that one on one time with dogs and bonding is an amazing feeling. I have had 6 dogs at once and it was pretty easy for me to handle especially if they are trained most dogs just need love and that is exactly what I’m willing to give i promise There will be no complaints

About: My mother is a veterinarian and I have worked at her clinic for most of my life. So, I know how to work with many different breeds and ages of dogs. In addition to that, I genuinely enjoy being around animals and ensuring that they are taken care of! I’m currently interning during the week but my schedule is very flexible. I am available for boarding or pet care Monday through Sunday at all times! I have a fenced in yard with one other small dog. If your dog does not like other dogs, he is crate trained and we also have available crates at my house.

“Courtney is great! She sent so many pictures and text updates. I could tell Comet had a great time when I picked him up! Will definitely return!”

“Awesome daycare. For an only child puppy, she gets to visit with so many other dogs. Was very helpful in working with my hours at work, I work 12 hour shifts. Was great communication in planning drop offs and pick ups. Just overall a very awesome stay for her, would highly recommend for anyone who has needs for their doggos!”

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had animals and especially dogs and cats. I am a retired nurse and have gone from caring for people to caring for pets. I will love and care for your babies while you are away. I am a retired nurse who has a lot of free time. I have friends who are pet/house sitters. I love animals and I have kept and cared for family and friends pets while owners were away. Never worry about your pets again when you need to be away. I have a golden retriever that has a super sweet disposition and he had been around other pets and plays well with others. I will only care for 1 pet at a time unless pets come from same family.

“Ileana is awesome! My 6 month old puppy is very timid, but Ileana and her dog "Chrissy" won her over the first day. Winnie is now always very excited to go back!”

About: Former veterinary technician and practice manager of 10 years, I have obtained a large amount of experience with multiple species and needs of animals. I’ve spent a lot of time pet sitting, working with rescues / fosters, and giving my own furry crew love & care. My husband and I relocated with the USCG down to Mobile in 2023 and since then I’ve been spending my free time working at HopHounds dog park downtown, as well as, volunteering with a few local rescues. With my experience and overwhelming big heart for animals, I promise to ensure that your pet feels right at home and gets the love and attention they deserve while you're away. My husband and I have recently relocated back Typically, I work only a few days per week with the ability to take time off when needed for fur baby care! I can fit house sitting, boarding, and drop in's into my daily routine easily to ensure that the times you feel your pet needs care the most, happen on schedule. I'm available most weekends and holidays, as well as, early mornings and late evening care. My booking settings do advise a 3 day notice-but please feel free to reach out with anything last minute and I will do my best to help! I offer pet transportation and grooming in addition to boarding/drop in services. This includes but is not limited to nail trims, bathing, and basic hair/fur trimming, Please let me know any questions you have regarding either. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood with lots of areas to walk and play, as well as, having a home with a large fenced in backyard, screened porch with fans, and toys galore! My husband and I have three, very social, doggos who love visitors. However, if your pet feels anxious around others, I do have 4 bedrooms available to provide them their own space and security. I am always happy to provide a meet & greet beforehand. If you're interested in boarding services and would also like to schedule a meet & greet with my fur kids-please let me know! Boarding can be stressful for pets-especially meeting new friends. I'm happy to help make that process easier in any way I can.

“Lindsey was awesome. She welcome Sheba like she was part of the family. Knowing that Sheba is happy and safe, is always my number one priority and with Lindsey, she is. I will definitely be using Lindsey again.”
