Doggy Day Care Lake Nona Estates

About: I have 18 years of experience caring for pets and truly love what I do. I previously worked at the PetSmart Hotel, where I handled boarding, playtime, and daily routines for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I also have experience as a pet groomer, so I’m comfortable with baths, brushing, and making pets feel their best. From energetic puppies to older, mellow dogs, I know how to make each pet feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every animal like family and create a calm, fun, and positive environment they’ll enjoy coming back to. Pet care is my full-time job, so your furry friend will receive constant attention, love, and personalized care throughout the day. I’m available 7 days a week, including for overnight stays for boarding. Whether your pup needs early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I’ll be there to make sure they feel safe and happy. Your pet will never be left alone for long and will enjoy a calm, consistent, and loving home environment — day and night. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel right at home. I live in a spacious apartment with a private patio, plus we have access to a secure, on-site dog park with fresh water available at all times, and a dog spa for relaxing baths when needed. Pets in my care are never left unsupervised for long, and I follow any feeding, walking, and playtime routines you provide. I always do slow, supervised introductions if there are other pets around, and I take the time to get to know each animal’s personality and preferences. You’ll receive regular photo updates, and I’m always available for check-ins or quick messages to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Michele was the perfect dog sitter for my Flynn. We dropped Flynn off so we could spend the day at the beach, so we weren't exactly sure what time we would be back. She was very understanding and had great communication with us the whole day. I could tell Flynn had a great time with Michele and her pup, and we will deficiently reach out to her next time!”

About: We are a young, loving couple with a passion for caring for pets. My husband grew up with dogs and cats, while I always dreamed of having a dog and finally got my first pup 10 years ago. Now, our family includes Moose, our sweet toy poodle, and three adorable guinea pigs. We prioritize the health and well-being of our pets. My husband even built a large custom cage to give our guinea pigs plenty of space and comfort. Moose, who completed three obedience classes as a puppy, is gentle, loving, and well-behaved. We both work from home, so we spend a lot of time with our pets and have a lot of experience administering oral medication and caring for dogs with special needs. After moving from Pennsylvania to Florida three months ago, Moose has missed his old friends, so we’re excited to help him make new ones. Our neighborhood features a nice dog park, walking trails, and sidewalks, and we also have a small fenced yard for safe outdoor play. We’ll pamper your pup just as we do with our own pets. We can’t wait to meet you, and Moose is ready to make new friends! We both work from home, but we do have meetings during the day. Therefore, we prefer drop-off and pick-up times to be outside of regular work hours. Our schedules are generally flexible, we just appreciate a little heads-up in advance! To ensure safety, we have dog gates, a fenced yard, and multiple home cameras to monitor the pets if we need to step out briefly. We typically provide our dog with potty breaks every 4 hours and take him on daily walks. Additionally, we ask clients to fill out a short form before daycare or boarding so we can tailor our care to their pet’s routine.

“John was great. I know it was not easy with a young puppy but he was so really good. Excellent communication and care. Will definitely book again.”

“Jesse & Kelly, Thank you sooooo soo much for watching our sweet boy while we got to have some family vacay time at Universal Studios. You both were so very accommodating and very flexible to letting us maximize our time. Our doggo had an absolute blast and always came back with a big American Bully smile on his face. We are so grateful that he was able to enjoy himself too and get some playtime in with other dog friends. Our family vacay in Orlando was a great success and we’re blessed you got to help with our furry friend. Thanks! -Voss Family”

About: I’m a 32-year-old professional with a flexible schedule. I’ve been a lifelong pet lover and have had pets for most of my life. Right now, I share my home with a cat I adopted while living in Philadelphia. Ask me anything! I work remotely from my apartment and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available most of the time. I just need a couple of hours’ notice to plan my day around it, but overall, I’m very flexible! I live in a spacious and comfortable apartment with my cat. While we don’t have a fenced garden, there’s a nearby trail where I go for a walk every morning.

About: My family has always been huge dog lovers. We have a fenced in yard (a privacy fence) and two dogs of our own. Our dogs would love to keep your pet(s) company. We would be available anytime of the day for drop off and pick up. I work from home so I am home the majority of the day. I have a large fenced in backyard for the dogs to run and potty in. We would try to accommodate most requests and we would offer a loving, safe and playful environment. I would try to be as accommodating as possible to the schedule that you request and the dog is use to. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me and ask. I live in a very nice neighborhood so we love taking our dog on walks around it, and would love to add yours to that! We also run outside with our dogs a lot, play in the back yard with toys, play fetch, and so much more! I care for pets by creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. In my home, I provide plenty of attention, regular walks, and playtime, as well as a cozy space for them to relax. It is important that your pet be up to date on vaccines and flea/tick medication to ensure the safety of all animals in my care. Their well-being and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Carly and her family always take such good care of our boy! Very communicative and easy going. Can’t wait for our pug to stay with her again!”

“Iliana was amazing with my puppy! He made a bunch of new friends and was having fun in her ball pit and backyard! She sent me so many videos and pictures of him while she was dog sitting for the day. She is the best and I will definitely be booking again! ❤️❤️”

“Janki was great for my dog Sapphire’s day care! She sent lots of updates during the day and I could tell she got a lot of energy out by how sleepy she was! 😊 Thank you Janki!”

About: I started pet sitting in 2023! Prior to that, I have experience in taking care of animals since I was 7 years old. Half of my clients are senior dogs, so I have experience with the different special needs senior dogs might have! Besides that, I keep you updated with your fur babies with daily picture and videos. I have had bad experiences with pet sitters before, so I became one to make sure I would treat your pets the way I wanted mine to be treated! I work part-time, only twice a week. Because of that I have plenty of time to take care of your furry family. Besides that, I live with my family that also helps me take care of your pet so they are never alone at the house. I have a little Italian greyhound, so I am used to high energy dogs. I have a fenced yard and I take the dogs for a neighborhood walk at least once a day. I live with my family, so the pets are never home alone. I provide multiple potty breaks a day! Also, I have a great dog park in my neighborhood, which I take socialized and high energy dogs to!

About: Why Choose Me? • Safety First: With a background in nursing studies, I am naturally detail-oriented and vigilant about health. I keep a close eye on hydration and signs of heat exhaustion. • Professional & Punctual: My leadership experience means I value your time. I follow instructions to the letter and provide consistent, reliable service. • Aesthetic Updates: You’ll receive bright, high-quality photo updates of our adventures, so you can see exactly how much fun your best friend is having! I’m not just a dog walker; I’m a dedicated partner for your pup’s specific needs! My background in leadership and my personal passion for fitness mean I bring a level of discipline, stamina, and reliability that sets me apart in the Lake Nona community. For the High-Energy Athletes: If you have a husky, shepherd, or a young pup with energy to burn, I’m your go-to. My weight training background means I’m a confident and strong handler for powerful breeds that need a brisk, heart-pumping workout rather than just a slow stroll. I have the physical stamina to keep up with the most active dogs. For the Calm & Senior Companions: I also have a huge soft spot for the 'slow-moseyers' and senior dogs. I understand that for many pups, a walk is more about the 'sniff-and-see' than the speed. I am incredibly patient with calmer dogs who need a gentle pace, frequent shade breaks (especially in this Florida heat), and a little extra time to explore their surroundings at their own comfort level. Whether your dog needs a 5K run or a 5-minute sniff around the block, I’m here to make it the best part of their day I am currently a pre-nursing student therefore when I am not studying, I am able to care for your furry friends Monday Mornings, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday throughout the day. I am a HUGE doggy lover , I believe dogs are a man’s best friend and deserve the upmost love and attention. I personally have an English bulldog named Capone, he is 5 years old and I make sure when I am not spoiling him I am keeping track of his health, and making sure he is happy in his home. Every dog is and will be treated like family to me. I will take care of your furry friend like I care for my mom, sister, and partner.

“Makenzy as so helpful and kept me updated on Rocky ! It was so nice to get pictures and know that he was behaving !”

About: Since I was young I have always wanted a dog, seven years ago my son brought the first dog to a family. A pitbull terrier. I have learned that pitbulls and feared breeds aren’t scary as long as they’re raised with love and care. Our pitbull terrier has grown to be nothing by a sweet ball of fur <3 now that I do not have him in my care any longer I miss having a furball under my care. I have also traveled plenty in my life to see and interact with other animals and learn just the small basics while I was around. I fully believe dogs should be treated just how cats were treated by ancient Egyptians. I’m currently a full time college student who takes most classes online that are fully paid with my scholarship so I have more then enough time to spend and care for your dogs🥰 I have a large fenced yard that allows for your pets to run around safely, and for smaller dogs I have smaller grates towards the bottom so they do not escape or get themselves stuck between the fences. I will make sure your dogs are under constant supervision, both in and out of the house. They will not be allowed in the kitchen for their safety and if necessary will be put in their own crate while I cook so they do not eat anything that is spilled.

“Olga was great! She sent me updates, pictures, and videos all day while we were away from our pups. It was so good to see them happy and thriving. I didn't have to worry at all.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and recently started doing boarding full time from home. I have experience with puppies, high energy dogs, senior dogs, anxious dogs, and multi dog households. My own Golden Retriever, Chloe, is very social and used to having guests around. Dogs here are treated like family with lots of playtime, outdoor access, personalized care, and regular photo updates for parents. I do pet care full time, so your dog will rarely be left alone. My schedule is very flexible and built around the dogs staying with me. I’m available for boarding and daycare, including extended stays and last minute bookings when possible. Dogs get lots of outdoor time, playtime, cuddles, and regular updates throughout the day. Dogs here are free roaming and treated like family. I have a fenced yard with a doggy door, so they can go in and out whenever they want depending on how they feel, whether they want to relax in the AC, sunbathe outside, play, or nap. I don’t keep dogs confined to one area. I adapt to each dog’s routine, energy level, sleeping habits, and feeding schedule. My Golden Retriever, Chloe, is very friendly and used to having dog guests around. I also send regular photo and video updates throughout the stay.
