Doggy Day Care in Lafayette

“Cathe took very good care of my pet, she is very affectionate and patient with him, now I won't think twice about it, she is the best 🐶”

“I’ve known Casey for almost a decade, and one of the things I admire most about her is her dedication and love for her pets. She not only cares for her animals, she has integrated them into her everyday life and considers them part of her family. I know that she will treat any animal with the same kindness and consideration that she extends to her own pets.”

“Christine and her husband are extremely trustworthy and loving pet owners and caretakers! Christine took very good care of my dog, showered her with love, pets, and kisses! I highly recommend this loving couple for your pet care needs!”

About: As a professional dog trainer, I have a deep understanding of canine body language and behavior, allowing me to tailor your dog’s stay to their unique personality and needs. Whether they love playtime, prefer quiet snuggles, or need extra structure, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Every dog is different, and I customize my care to what works best for them! I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. My life revolves around dogs 24/7, with most of my work consisting of Zoom meetings and training sessions. If I do leave, it’s only for 1-2 hours max—but even then, I have a live video camera set up so I can keep an eye on your pup. It even lets me talk to them and dispense treats! Whether they need playtime, enrichment, or a cozy spot to relax, they’ll always have the care and attention they deserve. When your dog stays with me, they become part of the family! I provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to their unique needs. Whether they love to play, relax, or enjoy the outdoors, I adjust their stay to what makes them happiest. In my home, your pup will enjoy: • Dog-Friendly Lake Access – I live on a dog-friendly lake, and during the warmer months, I can even take your pup swimming if that’s something they enjoy! • Constant Companionship – I work from home, so they’re rarely alone. • Live Video Monitoring – If I step out for a short time (1-2 hours max), I have a camera that lets me check in, talk to them, and even give treats. • Crate-Free Environment – Your dog can enjoy their stay without the need for a crate, as I have a dog-proofed home that keeps them safe while preventing them from getting into anything they shouldn’t. • Personalized Care – I understand canine body language and behavior, ensuring their routine fits their personality and comfort level. • Daily Enrichment – Playtime, mental stimulation, and structured activities to keep them engaged. • Cozy & Safe Environment – Whether they prefer a quiet nap spot or an active day, I create a space where they feel at home. Every dog is different, and I make sure their stay is as stress-free and enjoyable as possible!

“Liam is a fantastic caretaker - Frannie came back rested and content. He is clearly a gentle soul who loves dogs. Highly recommend for dogs with separation anxiety”

“Nina was super accommodating with drop off /late pickup and very prompt in communication. Nina’s place is in close proximity to mountain creek resort and will certainly consider next time around.”

“Chris has been amazing with our Dog he was kind and flexible!”

“Julia was absolutely phenomenal with my puppy. She kept me updated with pictures throughout the day and took her out as needed. I would absolutely book her again! Thank you!”

About: I grew up with family dogs throughout my childhood and couldn’t get enough animal love so I pursued a career in veterinary medicine. I’ve been pet sitting on and off since I was in high school and decided to make a little more time in my life to share my love with other people’s fur babies. My boyfriend and I currently have two border collie mixes named Oliver and Bandit, and two cats named Smudge and Jinx. I’m finally in a position that provides me with a great work/life balance with a 3 day work week and a commute under 40 minutes. I work 12+ hour shifts at an ER/Specialty veterinary hospital Sun-Tues and I bring my dogs to work on those days if my boyfriend won’t be home. I’m almost always available for any pet sitting needs Wednesday through Saturday. We just moved to the area on a quiet street and have a partially fenced yard. I can take dogs for low intensity hikes, walks around the neighborhood, or let them run around out back for exercise. If you have any special requests for overnight care I will do my absolute best to accommodate.

“I always choose Aleja for my dog Casper as I trust her cause when I see my dog so happy when I pick him up and the way she handles him is so well. She always sends me his pictures and text me time to time. I definitely recommend everyone to try her with her pets she's amazing in what she does. 👍”

About: Your dog becomes part of my household, which already includes a Border Collie and Jack Russel. I would not crate any dog unless absolutely required for short periods. Therefore I need to meet the dogs before commitment to ensure they are friendly and fit in for a visit. I am running my own farm business and is at home almost all the time, taking care of animals is my day-to-day activity. I only take in 1 or 2 animals at a time and already spend a lot of time walking and playing with my own dogs, adding 1-2 additional is part of the daily activities. I have 2 dogs already, they are never crated (since initial house training). I would not expect to crate any visiting dog either, unless there are specific circumstances raised by owner or if dog is destructive in the house when running free. I am the only carer for visiting dogs. While there are other people in household, I will be the sole carer and only person signing up with Rover.

About: Hello, My name is Natalie I’m 29, no kids but I am married! I have 3 fur babies myself a Rhodesian ridgeback 100lbs, a male pitbull 45lbs and a baby girl pitbull about 40lbs. All of my dogs are reactive for one reason or another so I have EXTENSIVE experience handling a dog that might not be the best around other dogs. I will ensure that every action that I take I would do confidently with my own dogs. Aside from dogs I have owned cats for years and also own two birds! I’m located in Hopatcong and am always available! Please contact me with any and all questions I know picking a dog sitter etc is hard! I work part time currently and am mostly available at all times! I have owned and worked with many dogs through out my life so I know nothing can be perfectly timed! I own 3 dogs so when it comes to caring for them I’m paranoid! I ensure that nothing is on the floor to be chewed. The dogs go out when needed at minimum 4 times a day. Lots of play in between outside and walks! I will ensure that any dog I care for will be treated as family as I would want for my dogs!

About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals, starting with owning pets throughout my childhood until the age of 12. While I haven’t had pets of my own since then, I’ve gained valuable experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages for family and friends. From small breeds like dachshunds to larger ones like pit bulls and rottweilers, I’ve cared for a variety of personalities and needs. I’m familiar with the energy and attention required for puppies and young dogs, providing plenty of physical activity and stimulation. Recently, I cared for an elderly dog who needed daily medication and extra safety precautions around stairs due to mobility challenges. I own a home with a large backyard, perfect for dogs to explore, play, and run to their hearts’ content. I also have experience walking dogs and ensuring they get the exercise they need. I can provide all essentials while I care for your dog, including a bed, toys, food and water bowls, and even a leash if needed. I do not supply food, snacks, or collar/harness due to each dog's unique needs. If your dog requires crating, the crate will need to be provided with instructions and practice of the process and routine your dog has for crating. My goal is to offer your pet a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they feel right at home. I prioritize the safety and comfort of every dog in my care. To ensure a calm and secure environment, I only board one dog or a set of dogs from the same family at a time. This policy helps me provide individualized attention and prevents potential stress or conflicts between unfamiliar dogs. If you have multiple dogs from the same household who are already accustomed to each other, I’ll gladly accommodate them together. As a business owner who works entirely from home, I have the flexibility to provide dedicated, around-the-clock care for your dog. My adaptable schedule allows me to take walks, play, feed, and handle any other pet care duties as needed throughout the day. Your dog will never be left unattended for long, ensuring they receive the attention, love, and care they deserve at all times. I care for pets in my home by providing a safe and engaging environment tailored to their needs. I own a half-acre property, perfect for walks and playtime, but as it’s not fenced, I ensure your dog’s safety by keeping them on a leash while outdoors. This allows them to enjoy the space while staying secure. If your dog requires crating, I ask that you provide the crate along with clear instructions and details about their unique crating routine. I’ll follow your dog’s established process to ensure they feel comfortable and maintain their routine while in my care. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your dog feels right at home. I do not have any other animals in my home, and do not board/ care for multiple dogs at a time.

“This was our first time using Rover and Kathleen was a life saver. We needed a pet sitter last minute after Petsmart cancelled our reservation a day before our trip. Kathleen responded quickly to our last minute request and helped accommodate us. She sent us so many pictures during the sitting assuring us our “first born” was safe and hanging out with her new friends. Our 12 year old Shorkie is very attached to us and normally shuts down around strangers but she seemed extremely comfortable and excited to hang out with Kathleen and her family. Thank you again so much!”

“Christina is the most honorable, self motivated, perfectionist I have met, she has taken care of several of my animals including dogs cats and reptiles, plants and even a child. She is meticulous with detail. Christina is an organized individual with aspirations to better what could be better. With passion Christina takes initiative to be efficient with what her tasks are and to go above and beyond what the goals were, she always goes further. She can organize/clean the most clustered dysfunctional space with ease, organizing things you gave up keeping together already and make it functional again.”

“I net Gabrielle several months ago. She is amazing with my Belgian Malanois, a breed that is known for being unfriendly. She careful with my pup, and always handles her carefully. She places the dogs in crates fit to her vehicle for safe transport. It's always a pleasure sign business with Gabrielle, and she also gives my dog an amazing bath before bringing her home. My pup seems very happy with Gabrielle and I think that she will be an amazing asset to Rover. Carla M. Harris”

“I have known Siobhan for many years and her passion for dogs has always been evident. Recently, she was kind enough to offer her services to watch our 1 year-old very active black Lab mix while we attended our daughter's wedding in another state. I felt more secure leaving our pup in her hands rather than risking a stay at a kennel. Siobhan was thoughtful enough to send us updates and a few pictures to let us know that our pup was happy and content in her care. That certainly put us at ease and was a kind gesture. We could see that our pup was receiving lots of one-on-one attention from the photos and that he felt safe in his environment. She also went out of her way to handle special requests that we had and handled everything without incident. I highly recommend her.”

“Jaylene took great care of my boy and kept me updated while he was there. This was super last minute and I'm thrilled that I found someone nearby! Will definitely recommend to pet parents I know. Porkchop made some friends and he will be returning soon!”

“Sebastian did a wonderful job with Cadence on her first visit. She can be a bit of a Velcro dog with my husband and I, and during her stay there she didn’t cry when I left. She settled in, got along great with his doodle Leo and even ate her lunch and treats. Sebastian is very professional and attentive, and kept us up to date with many pictures and videos. I will definitely book again and would highly recommend to anyone who’s looking for someone that will take great care and attention with their doggo. Thank you!”

“Stephanie took care of my cat for a week, and I couldn't be happier with her help. From the first day, she made sure my kitty felt comfortable and safe. Every day, she sent me updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Additionally, her affection and enjoyment to play with her. My cat was happy and well cared for. I would definitely trust Stephanie to take care of my cat again!”
