Doggy Day Care in Lakeview, Bakersfield, CA

About: I have always loved dogs, my parents said I couldn't get a dog until I could prove that I could take care of them so I did just that. Since then I have always had dogs. I love them all, I especially love the giant friendly ones. I am great with all different types of temperaments (the shy ones, nervous ones, and wild ones). I have 2 large breed dogs and 1 little dog. One of them is none other then the crazy Belgian Malinois. I always love to get my dogs as puppies and with that comes all the fun of training. I have trained my dogs fetching, walking on a leash, potty training, bite sleeve training. I also have cared for senior dogs as well as puppies. I am currently at home full time, so I can have plenty of time to watch your pups and play with them. Lots of cuddling time. I have a fenced in back yard as well as fenced in court yard where we can play. I have 2 large dogs to keep them company as well. I have an extra room to provide a dog some space if needed. And I have 2 large crates if crating is needed. I do have 2 cats but if your dogs aren't cat friendly my house is set up for my cat side and dog side. So everyone can coexist peacefully with no fear.

“Highly recommend her! My family and I always worry on who we leave our dog with, we try to look for the best person that can fit oreo. She was very nice and did send me many photos of him while on his stay. My family and I know when our dog feels sacred of the person, and when she sended us photos our dog looked happy and relaxed. And especially her doggos who are also very nice. I know for sure my dog enjoyed his stayed there!”

About: I am a Fear Free certified veterinary technician of 13 years who grew up in the show dog world (AKC) before getting into rescue as an adult. Throughout my long-lived animal career I have participated in puppy/kitten/basic obedience training, behavioral rehabilitation, dog sport training, senior care, care for animals with extreme medical needs, and owned/operated a group play doggie daycare. My jobs, hobbies, and passions are all centered around animals and I can't wait to bring that passion to you! I am home full-time, and available for puppies and animals with heavy needs. I have a fairly set schedule for all of the pets in my care, and that level of routine provides comfort to even the most nervous of pups. I am the only Fear Free pet carer in Bakersfield! I provide comforting classical music as well as calming pheromones in the sleeping spaces to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I have a fenced yard and never leave dogs together unsupervised. I do not provide an environment suitable for animals with a history of dog aggression. Small dogs I can be more flexible with, as their attitude usually comes from a place of fear and that is something I can work with for the little guys.

“Liliana was a great dog sitter for our pug. She was responsive, sent updates, had a warm and inviting home and was super easy to work with. Would highly recommend!”

“Nena is very warm, friendly and accommodating. I requested in a panic and she was there to meet me and give my pup great care. She sent pictures to put my mind at ease knowing my pup was in great hands. Thank You!”

About: I’ve always had a natural love for animals — growing up, there was never a time I didn’t have a furry friend by my side. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, from playful puppies to sweet senior cats. My experience working in an animal shelter taught me so much about animal behavior, health, and the importance of gentle, patient care. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, or daily check-ins, I treat every pet I care for like my own. I have a cat of my own who’s been with me for 8 wonderful years, so I understand how much pets mean to their families. My flexible schedule allows me to care for my sweet boy and other fur-babies as well. I have a spacious house with plenty of room to play and a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor time. My kids absolutely love animals and are gentle and respectful with every pet they meet.

“It was my first time ever using Rover. I was a bit skeptical but Jess took care of me and Beau. Answered all my questions and concerns prior to meet up. Jess was flexible with our time and date. When I dropped Beau off I had forgotten a water bowl and Jess had extra supplies for all my pups needs. During beaus time with Jess I got as many updates as requested and there was very clear communication and a timely response which help kill off the anxiety of leaving my pup! When I came for pick up Beau was so happy go lucky! Definitely huge shout out to Jess for taking care of my pup and keeping him company and happy!”

About: I grew up living with different types of pets and have a degree in animal science. I have also fostered and volunteered at animal shelters I'm currently unemployed, so I'll have plenty of time to play and care for your pups. I'm available any time on weekdays and some weekends I have a fenced yard, space and friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. If needed I have crates for your pups to use

“Joshua took care of our dog Cleo like his own! Loved the frequent updates and that she made two new doggy friends and had an absolute amazing time with him. Joshua is a true dog lover and made it so easy to leave our pup in his hands. Will absolutely call him again, thank you!”

“Veronica is really kind and gentle to my dog that is extremely anxious and whiny. The rover card was updated and photos were uploaded as well. And it was a bit chilly and she gave my dog a nice sweater to go home with.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life. I mostly grew up around German Shepards and miniature Dobermans. I have two dogs of my own named Milo and Bear. I adopted Milo when he was a little less than a year from the pound. I got Bear just 6 months later from someone who couldn’t keep him. I love dogs and want to help take care of your pets! I am a stay at home mom and I also work from home. Working from home gives me flexibility to be able to be there for your pets. In my home or your home your pets safety and well being is my top priority. I will treat your pets with the same love l treat mine with. I believe pictures and videos are important to provide to show you how your pet is doing. I also send updates about your pets like what they’ve been up to and if I have concerns I definitely would let you know. I do live in a one bedroom apartment but I have a front yard I can take your dogs out for fresh air and to use the bathroom.
