Doggy Day Care In Lafayette Square

“Damica is trustworthy and excellent with my pup. Kya has come home tired and happy from daycare both times I have picked her up, which is exactly what I wanted! Damica is quick to respond and provides updated videos/photos throughout the day so I can see what Kya is up to. Will definitely rehire.”

“I’m so grateful for Laura and her family. She was incredibly flexible from start to finish, and my dog is completely worn out—in the best way! Laura gave her all the attention I couldn’t, and I couldn’t be more thankful.”

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since the age of 10. I've had multiple dogs and including senior dogs with special needs. I volunteer with an assistance dog training program, Duo Dogs, here in St. Louis. I have experience grooming dogs including my own and would be happy to brush and potentially bathe your dog, if desired. I currently have a 6-year- old female Pekingese former breeder who never lived in a house to adoption. She is super a sweet and excellent with other dogs. I am available for pet sitting and doggy daycare Monday through Friday. I work from home on Monday and Friday and off work on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. On Saturday and Sunday I work in the office from 3:00 p.m. until 11:30, so if your dog is able to be left alone for 9 hours then Saturday and Sunday could be available. I have a fenced patio and two small dogs. I can accommodate any size well-behaved dog that is friendly with other dogs. I can accommodate crates as well and I can crate my dogs if needed. I live in the city proper and walk my dogs to do their business and can do the same for yours individually or they can potty in the raised garden bed in the patio. Typically my dogs have their crates with the doors open so they can come and go at their leisure. I do have hardwood floors and some area rugs but have other mats I can put down if your dog needs more traction.

“Jessica was very communicative and understanding. My dog had a great time and is looking forward to going back!”

“Laura made sure to keep me updated throughout the day and was so patient with my girl Boston. It’s always nerve wracking leaving your puppy with someone else especially with her visual impairment! Laura was reassuring, kind, and made sure Boston was comfortable, happy, and safe!! Highly recommend and I cannot wait for Boston to go back and hangout🥰”

About: I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone new, and I don’t take that lightly. I provide regular updates, follow your pet’s routine closely, and make sure they feel safe, exercised, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ve had hands-on experience caring for animals most of my life, including feeding, walking, bathing, and administering medication. I grew up caring for our family dog and have also worked with puppies, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for both dogs and other pets. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for you and as comfortable and consistent as possible for your pet. I’d love to meet you and your babies soon! I am currently looking to do Rover full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule for new clients and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. I’m known for sending lots of updates and being very attentive, even in unexpected situations. I am aware that every pet is different and may have unique needs for me to attend to. Having two of my own dogs at home, I understand how to maintain a safe and happy environment for your pets. I’m very attentive to pet safety, including diet, environment, and any specific needs your pet may have.

About: Hi, I’m Nana! I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, but my heart truly belongs to the little ones. For 16 wonderful years, I was the proud parent of a sweet Pomeranian. After she recently passed, her brother became the only dog in our home. We realized how much we missed the energy of a multi-dog household, which is why I’ve decided to open our home to sitting small dogs like yours. My life revolves around my 13 year old Pomeranian, Danny, who is the heart of my home. Having a senior dog has taught me everything about specialized care (gentle handling, medication schedules and providing a calm, patient environment for dogs who need a little extra love). I specialize exclusively in small dog care. I know that little ones have big personalities but also unique needs. My home is a safe haven where your pup won't be overwhelmed by big dogs or high-energy chaos. I’d love to watch your fur-babies! I frequently work from home, so your dog will have constant companionship and a consistent routine. My schedule is built around the needs of my 13 year old Pomeranian, meaning regular potty breaks in our fenced yard, timely feedings, and treat time are already part of my daily flow. Your pup will be supervised throughout the workday and treated like family. Safety is my top priority, especially for small breeds. I never leave guest dogs unattended outside. Because I’m fully aware of how curious they are (mine is constantly rooting for bugs), I am hyper vigilant about small-dog hazards.

“Nicole and tim sent great pictures in the video. They agreed to help out very last minute. And had an adorable house and yard for josie to hang out in.”

“Sarah was amazing! Super responsive, accommodating, and kind. Even sent us photos of our dog throughout the day! Will definitely be returning.”

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is the level of care, attentiveness, and protection I provide to every dog as if they were my own. I have experience working with young puppies who need patience, structure, and consistency with basic training and routines, as well as senior dogs who require gentle handling, medication management, and close monitoring. Safety is always my top priority I am highly observant on walks, mindful of surroundings, and proactive in preventing any potential risks. I understand canine body language, which helps me anticipate needs and avoid stressful situations. Whether it’s reinforcing positive behaviors, sticking to a detailed feeding schedule, or providing calm companionship for anxious pets, I create a secure and loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and protected. Owners can trust that their pets are not only cared for, but truly looked after with responsibility, awareness, and genuine affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially as an incoming medical student with a flexible study schedule. While my classes are structured, I have built-in breaks throughout the day that allow me to step away, reset, and give pets the attention they need. Studying also provides flexibility, since I can organize my time around walks, feeding schedules, play sessions, and check-ins. I value balance and know how important movement and fresh air are, so taking a dog out for a walk or spending time engaging with them fits seamlessly into my day. When I’m studying, pets stay in a safe, calm environment where they can relax comfortably nearby. Being in a rigorous academic program has strengthened my time management skills, responsibility, and attentiveness — qualities that directly translate into providing reliable, consistent, and safe care for every dog I look after. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm, and secure environment with constant supervision, scheduled walks, and plenty of attention. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, exercise, and rest to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all provided instructions, respect the space, and keep pets on their normal schedule to ensure stability. I’m attentive to behavior changes, mindful of surroundings on walks, and proactive about preventing any safety risks, so owners can feel confident their pets are protected and well cared for.

About: i’ve been around dogs my whole life and cats too, so being with animals just comes naturally to me. i have two cats and a dog of my own, so i’m used to different personalities, energy levels, and routines every day. i’m a huge animal lover in general—not just pets, but everything from little beetles to deer and anything in between 😂 i’ve always had a soft spot for animals. i pay attention to how they act and what they need, whether they’re super playful or more shy. i make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting the attention they need while you’re away. i treat every pet like they’re mine, and i know how big of a deal it is to trust someone with your animals. i’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and i’ll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well taken care of—no stress on your end. my days usually start around 8–9am depending on when my cats wake me up for breakfast lol. my dog zuko is more of a couch potato, but when he needs to go out he definitely lets me know. i work from home and my schedule is super flexible, so i’m not stuck at a desk and can move around freely throughout the day. that means i’m able to give pets a lot of attention, take breaks for walks, and adjust my day around their needs. once i’m up, i take zuko out for his first bathroom break, then we come back in for breakfast. after that i’ll relax a bit, clean up, and then we head back out for a good walk or sometimes the park. after that we come back, he gets a treat, and the rest of the day is pretty go with the flow—lots of attention, check-ins, and making sure everyone’s comfortable and taken care of. i make sure pets are always in a safe, clean, and calm environment. i live in a loft that gets a lot of natural sunlight, and my pets love it—they’re usually sunbathing and relaxing most of the day, which creates a really peaceful vibe. i pay close attention to behavior and routines so pets feel comfortable, especially in a new space or with a new person. i’m also very mindful about things like doors, food safety, and keeping anything harmful out of reach. i follow your instructions closely so your pet stays on their normal routine as much as possible. since i work from home and have a flexible schedule, your pet won’t be left alone or ignored—they’ll get consistent attention, care, and a relaxed environment. i’ll also keep you updated so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands.

“Dogs seemed calm and happy when we picked them up. Jordan was super nice, easy communication, and had a calm energy about him that the dogs responded positively too.”

“Keena provided amazing day care for my dog, Jasper. I could tell he how much he liked her right away. Jasper joined Keena and her family for a day full of fun activities. Keena shared so many wonderful photos. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her services again.”

R M.

“My pup is always so excited and happy to spend time at Isa’s. She really cares for my baby as if she were her own. I know she’s had a great day when I pick her up, happy and tired from a full day with Isa and some of her furry friends. It’s really nice to be able to rely on Isa for daycare and boarding. I highly recommend her!”
