Doggy Day Care in Lakeland South

“Every time I drop the boys off they are so excited as soon as we pull up. They always have the best time, and Sara takes the cutest pictures and videos of the boys. Forever their favorite place to go when they aren't at home!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies for over 12 years. It started when I was young, helping family and friends with their pets, and naturally grew into fostering both puppies and adult dogs. Today, I live with a ragdoll cat, two mini schnauzer doggies, and regularly foster dogs. My 2 senior cats that I grew up with currently live with my mom. Every dog or puppy I foster and have in my home learns routines and tricks based on their needs. I’ve helped with leash training, crate and potty training, managing toy reactivity, and teaching commands like sit, shake, and touch. My pets get plenty of playtime, structure, and love and yours will too. I’m careful with pet introductions and always prioritize comfort and safety. I understand every animal is different and will listen closely to your concerns to provide personalized care. I also love sending regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I work from home, and I am pretty flexible on ensuring the care needed for your pet. I have a lot of time to spoil your pets! I have a fully fenced yard, and monitor pets when they are outside. I introduce pets slowly with positive association and ensure each pet is comfortable. I also have a fence to separate pets indoors if needed. When caring for friends/family's pets, I always ensure pets do not bolt out the door both when coming inside and leaving. When walking a pup, I always ensure their harness/collar is on correctly and have high reward treats/toys to ensure focus stays on me if there are distractions. I never overwhelm an animal and understand they take time to warm up, especially when it is my first time meeting them.

“Booked for three days, and everything went fantastic, She took great care of my dog and kept me updated. My dog was walked on a consistent schedule, fed on time and got plenty of attention. I could tell she takes the job seriously, I appreciate the photos and quick check in through out the day. Her place is beautiful and my dog seems to be happy. I will definitely book Minji again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring.”

“She is wonderful! Takes great care of our 9 week old puppy, and is very considerate of the fact that he is not fully vaccinated so she keeps him separate from other dogs. She is awesome!”

“Marla is very responsive and attentive, sent pictures and updates throughout the day. My pup enjoyed her spacious yard and had so much fun playing with Boo. I will be booking again!”

“Our Australian Labradoodle loves her time with Odalys! We have her set for weekly doggy day care. She is so happy at drop off and exhausted at pick up. The best of both worlds. We feel like she is treated as part of their family and are especially grateful for the superb care of our pup! Highly recommend!”

“Francena is a loving, caring, and knowledgeable provider! She treats my senior Bichon like her own. She took prompt care of him when he was anxious (which he always is now that he is senior). She kept me posted and was very patient with his senior habits! She really knows dogs with all her experience in showing, breeding, grooming, and vet industries. I'm so happy to have found her!❤️”

“Polly was sidelined due to a leg injury for the last few months and missed her regular daycare visits with Milo & Marisol. Yesterday was her first day back and it did not disappoint! Milo and Polly picked up right where they left off, and Marisol made sure Polly didn’t overdo it or risk re-injury. I am so very grateful for Marisol’s care and diligence. We’re looking forward to our next visit!”

“Shay and her husband did a great job with Wrigley! He got play time with their dogs, and Shay gave slow introductions for Wrigley and her pets to make sure they would be comfortable together (they were!). Wrigley was a happy pup when he left.”

About: We don’t currently have pets of our own, but my experience with animals spans their entire lifetime. I raised both a Shih Tzu-Poodle mix and a Tibetan Terrier from puppies into their senior years. They were truly part of our family, and after losing them, I’m not emotionally ready to adopt again. Pet sitting feels like the perfect win-win your pets will be showered with love, attention, and care, while also bringing that special furry companionship back into our home. I’m experienced in daily pet care, including brushing and coat maintenance. Since both of our dogs had coats that matted easily, daily brushing and regular grooming were essential, and I personally maintained and trimmed their coats myself. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve pet sat for friends and family during vacations, often caring for their pets for weeks at a time. I also worked as a nanny for several years, where I regularly cared for a German Shepherd who became one of my favorites. We took daily walks to the park, and I helped maintain his coat, especially during shedding season. My love for animals began growing up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and frequent litters of puppies and kittens. Being able to witness and help care for animals from such a young age gave me a deep appreciation for them and taught me patience, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will always care for them as if they were part of my own family. My schedule is very flexible, I work from home in the evenings, the timing is perfect for winding down, they can relax in my office while I work or in our living room or room. In my home: Safety is my top priority. I have a large, fully fenced backyard, that connect directly to our lower living area allowing for secure and easy access for potty breaks. For variety i can take them around our neighborhood for walks and can utilize a large park at a nearby school for additional play time. Pet not good on walks, NO PROBLEM: Having owned a Tibetan Terrier who was incredibly loving with family and children, but reactive to other dogs on walks I deeply understand that every dog is different. If a pet is anxious or not good on walks, we can stay withing our private back yard. In the clients home: I follow the owners established routines and instructions to keep the pet safe and comfortable in their familiar environment, including tailored neighborhood walks.

“Couldn’t be happier with our pup’s stay with Keri. She was super friendly, accommodating, and responsive, and sent cute pictures during the day. She took great care of Tank and he came back tired and happy.”
