Doggy Day Care in Lorane

“Another great visit for Ruger with Tessa and Tyler and their family! Ruger has such a great time with them and Duke. It’s wonderful to have such caring people to leave him with. I feel so fortunate to have found them.”

“Michelly was WONDERFUL!! Sophie has separation anxiety having been glued to me during the pandemic. She was calm and patient with Sophie....they had fun being with the other dogs and with her 7 month old!!! It was relaxing for Sophie. Great place with a perfect backyard! You can tell Michelly LOVES dogs. So happy to find a good, knowledgeable, reliable doggy day care sitter! Thanks Michelly!”

“Rogue had an amazing time at his first daycare with Valerie! Her home is truly a dog’s paradise, she’s put so much care into making it fun and safe for pups. As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit anxious, but Valerie eased my worries by answering all my questions and sending thoughtful updates and pictures throughout the day. Rogue came home happy, tired, and completely at ease. It seemed like he didn’t want to leave! We fully trust Valerie and will definitely be booking with her again for daycare and overnight stays. 😊”

“Joshua was amazing with my baby dog! She had so much fun hanging out and playing with them today! Will definitely use them again in the future! Would definitely recommend them to anyone! The communication was incredible throughout the day with pictures and keeping me updated!”

About: Growing up with pets, I learned at a very young age, that our family dog did not like being ridden like a horse! While I've been around dogs all my life, most of my experience has been acquired during my adult years. I (Laura) am a freelancing Designer, and my husband (Lawrence) is a retired Registered Nurse. Together we have many years of experience raising our own family dogs: First we had a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, then two Yorkshire Terrier's, and currently a Pomeranian mix... ...We also raised a couple of boys, and their motley-menagerie of creatures. I think my heart doubled in size, when I realized I could combine two of my favorite passion's; hanging out with furry little Lapdogs, and creating miniature fashion's for Sport! I also really enjoy doing 'Street' photography of doggies and their humans. Dogs bring us so much joy, we just love making a fuss over them! We live near Downtown Cottage Grove, in one of it's walkable historic neighborhoods. Ours is a child-free home, offering 'Boarding' and 'Daycare' services--hosting only small lap-size dogs up to 18 lbs. Additionally, we also do 'Drop-in' visits in 'your' home for small and medium size dogs. Our fully-fenced backyard features a variety of tree's and flower gardens, with lots of room to romp and play. It's complete with a covered patio that provides protection from rain or sun year around. Most importantly, we want you to feel worry-free, while we keep your doggie safe and happy! We are available full-time to provide pet care. Occasionally, I freelance from home--where I make and sell custom-fit dog wear, including alterations on existing doggie wearables. My husband is retired, so we have very flexible schedules to accommodate and host our Lapdog friends. We can host up to three Lapdogs per day/night. We also can do 'drop-in' visits to your home, for both small and medium size dogs. Well, around here, it's safety first! We host only Lap-size dogs up to 18 lbs. (Also, we only take small breed puppies.) Ours is a child-free home, with a fully-fenced backyard. We can host up to three dogs per day/night. I always sleep in the same room with our visiting doggies--either on our comfy sofas, or our king sized bed. My husband is a retired Registered Nurse. Please be mindful that visiting dogs need to be current with vaccines, flea & tick prevention, and an identity tag. We also have zoned heating and air conditioning throughout our house. There's several doggie-beds, toys, and crate (if requested) or feel free to provide your own. Also, we want to know about anything you think would be helpful in making your Doggie's visit a successful stay. We offer lots of love, cuddles, and belly rubs!

“Our dog was very well taken care of while she was with Joel and Crystal. We were in town for a track meet, and it was perfect to be able to drop her off and pick her up after! We would do this again with Joel and Crystal for sure!!”

“Eliana was amazing! Watched our pup in a pinch and made sure she stayed safe. I loved all the updates and I know our girl enjoyed all the pets and treats! Would definitely recommend Eliana!”

“Denise was amazing. Coffee gets anxiety being away from me and she was able to calm him down and he even jumped up in her lap for a nap by the middle of the day.”

“Jen and Josh are wonderful to work with - dog lovers, very knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. They have an excellent set-up for a fun, safe "day camp" for dogs with different natures - active, chill, aloof, garrulous! Our little tugger is a playing machine, and initially presents as intense, so I wasn't sure if he'd fit in. Before taking us on, Jen and Josh met with us in person at their location, and on day 1, I felt that they were observing him carefully, based on Jen's updates. When visit #2 rolled around, as soon as we got to the front entrance where Jen was waiting, I became non-existent and the tugger embarked on a great day! I'm truly grateful to have found this setting- the tugger benefits greatly from the socializing and activity, and it happens in a secure place with attentive and caring humans!”

“Hannah is amazing! She made my clingy and anxious chihuahua feel comfortable and right at home. ? I’m very particular about who I leave him with and she is friendly and answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. I received photos and updates during his stay! So glad I found her! Thank you!”

“This was my first time leaving my pup with someone new, so naturally I was a little nervous—but they totally put my mind at ease! They were super attentive with my little spoiled brat (and I say that with love 😄). He was always wagging his butt and happy to go back, which says it all. I really appreciated how they noticed he was picky with food—he wouldn’t eat there, but they still checked in and made sure I knew. He had plenty of playtime and always came home happy and tired, which is a win in my book! I didn’t want him going on walks because of his reactivity to cars, and they totally respected that—he got plenty of backyard play instead. Bonus points for being flexible with my chaotic work schedule. Highly recommend! 🐾”

“Heather loves our pup like he was her own! Our pup is showered with love, attention and gets 2 walks while at Heathers house for doggy day care! I appreciate she’s been very accommodating to any rules/ behavior things we’ve been focusing on and continues to reinforce what we’re working on. I feel so comfortable leaving our pup in Heather’s loving care and I’m so thankful we found her!”

“Morgan did amazing with our two pups while we went and visited Channel Islands for the day. She is so sweet and took such great care of our babies. I would absolutely recommend her! She has a lovely home and is such a sweetheart.”

About: I usually take myself for a walk in the morning and afternoon, let me take your precious pooch along with me! Big dogs have always been a large part of my life. I grew up with a Newfoundland Retriever mutt and my most recent dog was a lab mix. I spend my Sundays at college walking dogs at the local humane society. I am comfortable with all breeds and have experience with dogs that have health issues. I currently work from home Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays with lots of weekend availability. I would love to take your dog for a walk in both the morning and afternoon! I am extremely gentle with every dog I encounter, but know how to assert myself as the alpha when walking them. I had to go through special training through the Humane Society to walk dogs from all types of backgrounds.

“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!!!”

“We had to make a couple of changes to the times and dates of our dog sitting sessions. Diane was extremely accommodating and did a really nice job of spending some one on one time with our dog, who can get a little anxious when we leave him. Thank you Diane.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child, growing up with bird dogs and haven’t been without a pup of my own my entire life. I’m a stay at home, homeschooling mom that can accommodate any schedule of care. Available week days and weekends to care for your dog in my home. I have a large fenced yard and 2 dogs of my own to keep your dog company. I live less than a block away from a large park, and can offer multiple walks daily, lots of cuddles and attention.

“Blu loved staying at Cassie's and playing with her dog Digby. Cassie was flexible, a great communicator and sent us lots of cute pics. Will definitely ask her to watch Blu again!”

“It is impossible to say enough wonderful things about Talitha (Tilly). Our staffy/husky/shepherd boy is our world and we are very picky about his care. He was in excellent hands with Tilly. She is so caring and loving. She sent us pictures of his walks and him lazing around at her house looking very cozy. We knew he felt at ease and so did we. And when a work trip delayed travel plans, she worked with us to provide last minute care as well. We will absolutely be using her in the future. She is an absolute delight (and our boy agrees!)”

About: Animals are everything to me, I treat each like my own, with protection, love, and care. I take care of your animals and make sure your home is clean before you come back. I am able to stay the day, or night. I fear no animal. We play, hangout, and have memories together. You pet will be in the best care possible when I am around. When you leave your dog will never feel alone, will never be alone. By the time I leave your furry friend will miss me. I have many references, many people that have me come back when they leave. I am experienced in all care with a big range of animals. I DO HAVE A DAUGHTER WHO WILL JOIN ME. SHE IS 2 YEARS OLD.
