Doggy Day Care in Lake Alfred

“Highly recommended her. I know my dog has a good time when she gets excited to see her (he doesn’t with most people) and then he doesn’t want to leave.”

Shannon B.

“Our first time at daycare was great. I got updates and pictures/videos through the day and June had an incredible time. He came home very happy and all tired out. We will schedule again! Thank you!”

Karinne K.

“Eyran provided A+ service. He was very good to our dog Sofia and sent us photos throughout the day. He is kind, a great communicator and offered a very flexible schedule. We definitely plan on booking again when our travels take us to the area!”

“Jenn helped us as we traveled to Tampa for the weekend with our dog and need last minute dog day care with late hours. My husband and I were most appreciative of the service she povided and the interaction Winter was able to have with the othe dogs. Thank you again, Jenn!”

“Hailey took *amazing* care of Zeus while I was away! From the start, communication was excellent—very responsive, friendly, and clearly experienced with pets. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos; it gave me so much peace of mind knowing Zeus was in such good hands. When I got back, Zeus was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Hailey treated him like family, and that means the world to me. I highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful sitter. Zeus can’t wait to see her again!”

“WALLE popped right out the door at the end of his daycare.. then ran back to give a "hug" to Roderic.. my heart melted a little.. seems like he had a great visit”

Susanne S.

“Ashley is the kindest person that treats your “baby/babies” just like they are her “baby/babies”. She is reliable and makes all of my fears disappear. Makes work easier knowing my boy is well taken care of.”

Tara W.

“I am SO glad I found April and her family through Dog VayCay. We took a day trip to Universal Islands of Adventure and I know my dog would be so much happier staying at a nice home with friendly family for the day rather than at boarding facility. Lucy was happy and kindly look after. Thank you for taking such good care of her! Highly recommend !!!”

Christina G.

“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.

“Annette is amazing! She really loves dogs. Her set up for dogs is phenomenal. My dog loved her from the start. She sent pictures through out the day. She let me know how he did when I picked him up as well. I won’t hesitate to take my precious dog back to her. She’s very professional as well. She relieved all of my fears about using a dog sitter.”

God’s Favorite D.

“Nilka did a great job taking care of our baby. She provided us with many updates throughout the day, which it meant a lot to us.”

Johana T.

“Kiaramarie was an absolute doll! I would definitely recommend and use her again!!!!!! She sent me many photos and updates throughout the day to let me know our labradoodle “Hotah” was comfortable and happy. Thank you! We were relaxed while sightseeing knowing he was being well taken care of and snuggled.”

April K.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received during their stay at Erika’s home! She went above and beyond to make sure my girl felt comfortable, even sending updates with photos and videos. It was such a relief to see my Chi playing, getting exercise, and playing fetch! The space was clean, well-maintained, and equipped for dogs of all sizes. My girl came home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Erika for doggy daycare. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves what they do and will treat your furry friend like family.”

“Such a nice family. They took such good care of our Pepper, sent photos of her having a good time and lots of snuggles. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”

About: I am a huge animal lover who has experience with animals from dogs and cats, to snakes, spiders, rodents, ruminants, and livestock. I have lived on farms and in suburbs, so I am capable of adapting to your needs and providing excellent care of your pets at all times. I have raised puppies and kittens and baby rodents as well, so the youngest creatures are safe in my care. I have multiple verbal references available if requested. Many of my clients have had poor experiences in the past. They come to me and then stay with me because I offer: + Peace of mind with multiple check-ins and responsive communication + Single-family care to ensure YOUR pets are my only responsibility; I am not a boarding kennel with dozens of other pets to look after + Pictures pictures pictures! At least once a day you'll get multiple photos of your babies + Your pets won't be locked up all day - I work from home on my own schedule so it can fit in around their care duties, and I don't drive to go gallivanting all day + I clean up after myself AND your pets! + Senior animal experience and medication administration + Pet Sitters International member with pet first aid and CPCR training + I LOVE your pets as if they are my own; they get all the same attention you would want to give them Please find me on social media: EKG Petsitting on most platforms. I'm currently working from home and have one teenage child who tends to herself, so I have plenty of time to attend to your pets in a day. I can adapt to various schedules as a previous shift worker so that your pet is cared for on YOUR schedule, and mine fills in the gaps. I have one dog and one cat of my own at the moment, and both are very good with other animals, so if your dog is staying in my home they do not have to be crated or contained in a room unless they are known to be aggressive or destructive. Please note: I cannot have dogs over 30 pounds for boarding, but I do offer house-sitting services for dogs of all sizes. I DO have a fenced yard, but it is cement throughout and not a place to potty. If your pet needs to potty they will be walked either behind the yard (for aggressive dogs) or within our gated community. Cats have access to an entirely separate room with their own litter box. In your own home, I can provide any walking in the neighborhood, take dogs into the yard, hang out and play with your pets. I can provide walks up to 20 minutes; longer walks are not currently available. Camera monitoring is fully acceptable in your home outside of private areas (such as the bedroom I am using and the bathroom).

About: I am a dog-mom to a 12 year old Great Pyrenees /Mastiff and a grand to 3 more pups, an 8 year Border Collie mix, a 6 year old Australian Shepherd, and a 3 yo pit mix. My prior dog lived 14 years before crossing the rainbow bridge. I am an empty nester, so my pup, Lance, is like a child to me. Lance joins my husband and me on most of our adventures. I have a background in caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. My experience includes walking, exercising, feeding, and bathing dogs. I will always carry “doggie bags” and clean up after your pet while on walks or outside. I am also comfortable administering oral and topical medications as well as transporting your pet to and from vet appointments or the dog park, if needed. My belly rubs are the best!! I am currently semi-retired in the cardiology field, and I am a PT caregiver for my in-laws . Although my schedule varies, I am available most days during the week. I am looking to occupy my extra time with something I enjoy, and what better way to do it than nurturing your pet while you are away! I will come to your home to walk, feed, medicate, bathe, and play with your dog based on an agreed upon schedule. Overnight stays and house sitting services at your home are available on a limited basis. My mid sized SUV is large enough to accommodate your pet to and from appointments, as needed. My goal is to provide a safe and loving environment for your pet and make the time away from you more comfortable. Don’t worry…I will send you lots of pictures of your pup!

About: I’ve had pets since I can remember. Currently I have three dogs (beagles) . Growing up in Montana I was constantly raising litters of kittens that I found outside my home, I would nurse them back to health until they were old enough to find good homes. I started house sitting for friends and family since I was 14 years old. Once I was 18 I started working as a kennel assistant then worked my way up to assisting in emergency care and spent 8 years total as a veterinary technician. I’m not only passionate about taking care of fur babies and making them as comfortable as can be but I also know what to do if an emergency situation were to arise. If a pet needs any extra care like medications, fluids, etc. I am more than qualified for the job. My partner and I both work from home and will be available throughout the day to take care of any needs your pet may have. I always treat every animal that I watch as if they were my own and I always respect every clients wishes with what care their pet will receive while they are away. I always make sure to send lots of pictures and give extra love.

About: Hi! I am the probably the biggest animal lover you will ever meet. Need help caring for your beloved family member? I would love to watch your pets when you can’t be there. I’ve been taking care of animals since I could walk. I have been volunteering at animal shelter since 2018. Almost all of my animals are rescues so I am aware of how to treat animals with problems. Whether that be special needs or behavioral differences, I know how to properly care for those animals. I take into account not just what an animal needs, but their wants and personal preferences. Each of my 10 dogs have widely different personalities and needs. I am able to handle animals that are weary of strangers. I know that they just need a trusted person who gives them the patience and love they need to get comfortable. I understand that what one animal may need, another may need something different. I will not treat your pets just like an animal, I will treat them like the family member they are. Pet care fits into my daily schedule. I do online community college so I am free daily. I am trying to gain experience for my future career in a veterinary field. I do not do this job for money but it certainly helps pay for my schooling. I am willing to help take care of your pets to a schedule that fits you and your pets needs best! To care for your pets in your home I will ensure that no hazardous items are able to be chewed or swallowed by your pet. I will observe the animal’s play time intently. I will follow your animal outside when it is time for potty breaks to ensure that they do not eat anything that can harm them. I will provide excellent observations of your animals so you can come back to them happy and healthy.

About: I just love helping people out and I love animals. I’ll do whatever is needed for your baby an help in any way I can. I’m free all the time. Your needs fit into my routine however you need.. I’m here for you and to be there when you need it. I take my pets on multiple walks and love on them 24/7. They get everything they need and more. Very friendly animals, get along with everyone.

About: Hello, I'm Sheryl Lynn, I own a home here in the area that is perfect for dog owners who enjoy walking their dogs in a safe gated community with pet friendly likeminded neighbors. In the past, I’ve always had a house full of dogs... mostly very spoiled spaniels who required a lot of attention, exercise, ear cleaning and grooming. That changed after our youngest of the last pack crossed the rainbow bridge, I took 4 years to grieve to take some vacation time with my better half. Missing all the pitter patter of paws through the house, I found pet sitting for friends and family gave me some much-needed puppy love. I have a lot of experience dealing with dogs at all stages of life from whelping, puppyhood, the very energetic, those who are deaf, blind or have medical issues such as ear infections, seizers, Cushing’s disease etc. to the elderly dog who may need a little more patience and understanding for issues that come along with age. I have taken in dogs who have had major surgery to aid in their recovery where the owner was not able to, expecting mommas and I also have experience with service dogs and the house rules that apply to them, especially during their training period. I own my own business and work from home, so most recently decided to adopt a little 12lb spaniel mix I fell in love with. As I have learned over the years, once you have one pup, what's one more in our daily routine! However instead of adopting more to leave travel options open, I opted to pet sit again, as our little guy loves to socialize. There is nothing better than being surrounded by dogs who love life! Your pet(s) will always have someone to interact with and play with throughout the day. Pups that need to go out a lot are welcome, even in the middle of the night, as I already have one with a tiny bladder. Although I live in a clean and organized home for my own sanity, it is very pet friendly as I had to puppy proof my home. Also have 2 guest rooms all set up for our pet guests should you/they prefer them to sleep in a crate or need a quiet space, and/or they can enjoy the run of the house if you/they choose to. In addition, have a privately fenced pet friendly backyard they can enjoy, which I always accompany them 100% of the time they are outside. I always crate pets if I must run out but never gone more than 2 hours at a time, if at all. If you are comfortable with me walking your dog… I do so every morning and evening within our tree line street gated community. Most pups will love all the squirrels and places to sniff and leave pee-mail. Perfer your pets to stay in their own environment? I do offer drop bys 1 to 4 times a day. Overnight pet sitting in your home can be arranged as well as house sitting too. I have 30 years experience in property management managing high end single family homes as a licensed real estate broker who owns multiple brokerages and offices through out Central Florida. Your home is in good hands should you need extra tasks completed while you are away. If you are anything like I am, I have a hard time leaving my pet(s) with anyone worrying about this and that… so I’m more than happy to provide concierge services that meet your pet’s needs, along with video calls and/or photo updates during their visit with us. I treat every animal as my own and guarantee they will feel very loved and entertained during their stay. Please reach out if you have questions and/or would like to meet.
