Doggy Day Care in Laquin

About: I have been around animals and have helped care for them since I was around 10 years old. I grew up with cats and now as an adult I have three dogs. In my free time I volunteer with a local rescue, and I have fostered through the rescue or on my own taken in, vetted, then found homes for over two dozen animals combined. I was raised with so much love and empathy for all animals that I care for them as if they were my pets. I had a rover account a few years ago, but I deleted my account when I decided to legally change my name. So while I have experience being a sitter on rover, I unfortunately have no way to show my previous reviews. It would be my honor to care for your pets in whatever form needed, whether it’s boarding, drop in, walks, or daycare. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! My rates are to account for rover fees. I also require a meet and greet for any dogs that would be in my home to make sure they’d get along with my dogs. We can discuss rates further during meet and greets if you’d like. I am a stay at home dad with my 5 year old child that I homeschool, so I am available all the time. I do have occasional appointments or events, but none of it takes up much of my time. It is very easy for me to be home and tending to animals whenever needed. I have a small fenced area for bathroom breaks, but the rest of my property (half an acre) is not fenced in. My own dogs are allowed off leash because they are trained, but for safety I would not allow rover dogs off leash in the non fenced portion of the yard.

“Repeat customer. My dog is apprehensive to non-family. Matt came out to greet us. She remembered him. My dog’s tails started wagging and she went right over to him. Jess soon came to the top of step and my dog went over to say hi to her and went right in the house. She didn’t even look back to me. They both have a calm demeanor that my apprehensive dog can sense and she obviously feels at home with them. Grateful to have people like this in the Valley.”

“Joseph S. was kind enough to to take my dog Maggie in on very short notice when I had a family emergency. Her took her on a hike, gave her a bath. I warned him she was clingy and Maggie didn't disappoint as she followed him everywhere. She was happy to see me when I arrived but I think she wanted to hang there for some more fun and adventure. Thanks Joseph, you helped me out of a tight situation and I would definitely recommend your service to others.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet parent currently sharing my home with 3 cats, 2 dogs, a bunny, and a chinchilla. My family lovingly calls me the cat whisperer—but the truth is, animals of all kinds seem to feel at ease around me. With a lifetime of caring for pets, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to look after your furry (or fluffy!) family members. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or special care routines, I provide the same love and attention I give my own pets. I’m here to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and loved. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch—I'd love to meet your pets! I work from home and have a pretty flexible work schedule so your dog will be able to go outside multiple times a day, or whenever it needs to! While I have a large, open yard, it is unfenced—so for everyone’s safety, all visiting dogs are supervised at all times and never left outside unattended. My own two dogs are crate trained, and I use crates or safe indoor spaces as needed to ensure a calm and secure environment for every pet in my care. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities!

“Caroline was dependable and kind. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup with her when we came in from out of town for a concert.”

About: Animal lover since I was little. I have always rescue my dogs and I have also fostered and volunteered w getting dogs safely off death row. I believe in treating every pup like it was my own. I’m a hair stylist and have decent control over my schedule and summers are slower so I have the time to put into this !! Both…I prefer my home just out of convenience but don’t mind sitting that doesn’t involve sleep overs. I get home sick lol. !!! !!! !! I do work part time. I am mostly home but when I’m not my boyfriend is who always helps me w the pets ! They will have constant love and care. I like to be given daily instructions that I would follow to the T. Aside from that a lot of walks and snuggles. I want to make the pet feel as comfortable w me as possible !

About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have 4 dogs and 2 cats. I have dog sat for friends and family in the past. I am currently a stay at home mom to an infant and a teenager. Baby would be with me so please no dogs that hate children. I walk your dogs at least once a day, unless otherwise instructed not to or if the weather is unsafe. I will provide them with lots of cuddles and pets. Currently a stay at home mom in a new state so I have a lot of time to spend with your fur babies. My husband is home a lot also to help out with walks We don’t have a fenced yard yet (hopefully soon!). But we go out for multiple potty breaks a day. We have room for a crate if needed. We also have an outdoor kennel area that the dogs can be tied up in if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of numerous types of dogs for friends and family since I was 13. I trained my puppy and love playing with dogs of all ages. I currently work from home, which allows me to give your pets the attention they need during the day! I’m at home full time Monday-Friday and am available on weekends. My dogs are uncrated and allowed to be outside in my unfenced yard, though I usually go out with them. For peace of mind, I’ll take your pets out on a leash or a runner. In your home, I can do whatever you’d normally do.
