Doggy Day Care Laurel Hill Valley

“My pup came back happy and tired. She loved having a yard and other dogs to hang out with. She was going to Lucky Dog but hated it so im glad I found something she likes. I appreciate them letting me drop her off early. I will definitely use them again!”

About: Hi there! My journey in professional animal care began early, shadowing my mother in her animal behavior and care business. I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of species—including dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, cattle, goats, and rabbits—which shaped my understanding of how to meet animals where they are: emotionally, behaviorally, and physically. While I am not a licensed dog trainer, I’ve spent much of my life developing a thoughtful, intuitive approach to animal care. My professional background includes extensive training in wildlife handling and care techniques. During college, I volunteered at the Cascades Raptor Center in Eugene, assisting with the daily care and rehabilitation of birds of prey. Over the years, I’ve also provided pet care for friends and family, building trust through reliability, compassion, and a deep respect for each animal’s unique needs. Now, I’m excited to offer my experience and dedication to the local community. I’m Fear Free Certified for dogs, and while I’m not certified for cats or other animals, I apply many of the same principles across species: 🧘‍♀️ Creating low-stress environments 🐾 Respecting boundaries and body language 🛏️ Offering comfort, routine, and enrichment 🐕‍🦺 Using gentle handling and positive reinforcement In 2024, I worked with shelter animals at Greenhill Humane Society, where I received extensive behavioral training and advanced to independently care for dogs and support enrichment for cats. That experience helped me develop a deep understanding of animal behavior, stress signals, and how to build trust with pets from all backgrounds. What I offer: 🐶🐱 Drop-in visits, walks, feeding, litter care & medication support 🧶 Enrichment activities tailored to your pet’s personality 📸 Daily updates with photos and notes 🐾 Experience with seniors, shy pets, and those with special needs Whether your pet is playful, reserved, or somewhere in between, I bring calm energy, reliable care, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. Thank you for considering me — as someone who has also used Rover for my own pets, I know it can be daunting to find the perfect fit for your furbabies. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, a drop-in visit, or extended overnight care, I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs without the constraints of a traditional 9–5 job. Because I’m home-based, I can offer: 🐕 Timely potty breaks and walks 🐈 Calm, low-stress drop-ins for cats and small pets 🐾 Flexible scheduling for last-minute requests Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or more involved care, I’m able to integrate it seamlessly into my day, ensuring they get the attention and comfort they deserve. I currently do not offer in-home boarding, but I provide personalized care in your pet’s own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it's a quick drop-in, a longer visit, or multiple check-ins throughout the day, I tailor each session to your pet’s routine and emotional needs. Because I work from home, my schedule is flexible—I can accommodate midday visits, early mornings, or evening care depending on your pet’s habits. I focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience by respecting their space, reading their body language, and offering enrichment that suits their personality. Your pet gets: 🐾 Familiar surroundings and routines 🧘‍♀️ Low-stress care with gentle handling 🐕 Walks, playtime, feeding & medication support 📸 Updates so you stay connected I treat every visit as a chance to build trust and make your pet’s day better. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I’m here to meet them where they are.

“Super friendly, loving and responsible doggy daycare for our 1- year old Berner! Ruby loved playing with the other dogs. She comes home content and happy. She will definitely want to come back to visit Valerie and her daughter Sara.”

“We were nervous to leave our dog with strangers as we had never left her before. They were very attentive and introduced her to the other dogs and made sure She was comfortable before we left her. We would definitely leave her with Jennifer and Josh again!”

Tara C.

“I couldn't ask for a better sitter for my dog Juniper. She felt right at home in Jamie's house and with her family. They gave her lots of attention throughout the day and even took her to hang out with the neighbors' dogs. Jamie sent me updates and lots of pictures throughout the day and that really helped to ease my anxiety while at work. 10/10 would recommend to everyone for dog sitting and I will definitely be bringing Juniper back to Jamie in the future!!!”

“Ying is absolutely fantastic! He took great care of our dog, making sure he had lots of exercise and affection and treats! He sent lots of videos and pictures during the day so we knew he was in good hands. We are very picky about who we trust with our dog and Ying is top notch! We have already booked another day with him. Thank you, Ying!”

“It's my seconding time having Ruthie to watch my dobie Ranger. I'm so thankful for Ruthie. She is so sweet and responsible. Ranger came home tired from all the plays and walks....and he got all the love from Ruthie and Olly :)”

“Journey is the perfect sitter for our reactive baby. I could immediately tell she has lots of experience and is comfortable with even fearful dogs like ours. The thing about Journey that I am most appreciative of is that she has Fear Free certification. She showed in all her communication with me that she understood Guinness’s needs through his body language and was respectful of his boundaries (however long they lasted, apparently he got pretty cuddly!). I will definitely be bringing Guinness back for boarding, daycare, and probably grooming too. I can’t express how grateful I am to imagine being able to board Guinness and therefore travel again! Thank you, Journey!”

About: I’m constantly around animals. I’m wanting to become a veterinarian technician once I get into collage. I was raised having animals. I don’t recall any animals not liking me. I’m a very genuine person. I am very caring when it comes to animals. I’m a huge animal lover also very active when it comes to walks. I’ll make sure ur animals are well cared for. And your house. I was raised a hard worker and very responsible. I promise I will not let you down if you hire me. I hope I can show you how much care I will give for ur animals and I won’t let you down! I am not working right now, so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals! I am free every day. I am available anytime. I will make sure they have everything they need to survive with, food, water, toys, and treats if they need. I can put them in their kennel if need be, and make sure they are well taken care of with lots of love.

“Maple Bacon had the most wonderful stay with Mattea and her pups! I was nervous to leave Maple somewhere new but she sent soo many updates to reassure me. Maple can't wait to stay with her again!”

“Rosa is great. Brody loved it there. Would definitely leave him there again.”

About: I am definitely the person that gravitates towards the fur babies at social gatherings. I experience with my own dogs and cats, AND petsit for friends. I have two dogs and a cat currently. I'm happy to host your dog as long as they're non-aggressive and non marking around other animals. I'm currently working part-time, but have a lot of availability for watching your pets. I will be at work Tuesday from 9-1 and Wednesday evenings. I love hosting friends and family, and your pets are the same! I make sure they understand their surroundings and have the basic needs met, water, food, bathrooms, AND fun.

“Cassie was a wonderful host for my pup! Mahogany got along with Tilly like an old friend, and Cassie sent me pictures, videos, and updates consistently throughout the day. Their house is basically across the street from one of Hog’s favorite dog parks and he got to spend a bunch of time there! He was happy and tired after a day full of adventure! Highly recommended!”

About: Growing up, I've always taken care of at least 3 pups/cats at any given time and have been raised to treat them like siblings rather than just animals. I've done almost everything in pet care you could think of including grooming, bathing, feeding, boarding, staying over for long hauls, etc. And if given the opportunity I would love to care for your pets as if they were my own, creating a good experience for them while also easing your mind during your travels or workdays. I am off 4 days out of the week so during those times I can be completely committed to your pet! The days I do work I am able to leave to take out pets multiple times during my shifts, so rest easy, they will not be alone for too long. I am a very mailable person and can bend/adjust to you and your pets needs; just let me know beforehand :) In my home, I do own cats and they are okay with dogs and cats. If I am needed to stay over at the client's house, I will follow all house rules set and will to not deter from your usual schedule with the pets lives (same walking times/routes, play times, etc.) Each watch/play date is different so whatever is most advantageous to the client's interest along with the pets comfortability and happiness is what I will do :)

“Mari and Steve provided a wonderful experience from beginning to end. They took extra care to make our dog and us feel at ease, communication was quick, and our dog left daycare happy and well loved!”

About: I provide reliable, structured, and genuinely attentive care — not just “watching” your dog, but actively engaging with them to keep them happy, calm, and fulfilled while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including large breeds and high-energy pups, and I tailor care based on each dog’s personality and needs. Whether that means long walks, structured play, mental stimulation, or just a calm presence for anxious dogs, I adjust to what helps them feel safest. I have experience reinforcing basic training (sit, stay, and cool tricks), and maintaining routines. I’m especially patient with puppies who are still learning and senior dogs who may need a slower pace and extra attention. What sets me apart is communication and consistency — you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your dog is doing. If you want picture or messaged every 5 minutes I can do that! I treat every dog like they’re my own, with safety, structure, and affection as my top priorities. I work remotely so I can work from anywhere, anytime. My job is also very flexible so I can always give your pet the attention they need at any time. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I keep a clean, organized, and pet-safe environment free of hazards, and I closely supervise all pets. I never leave dogs unattended in situations that could put them at risk, and I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, medications, crate use, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and maintain your dog’s normal routine to reduce stress. I ensure doors and gates are securely closed, use leashes on walks at all times, and remain alert to surroundings for safety. Communication is key — I provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and give your pet a safe, positive experience every time.
