Top rated Lyons doggy day care sitters

“I appreciate how kind and understanding Yuliia is even with last minute changes. Haku is always so impatient to see his favorite sitter! She takes good care of him and was a big help in his recovery. I can’t recommend her enough!”


“Rhae was very responsive, kept me updated during my dogs' stay, my dogs seemed happy! She took the time to walk them a few times while they were there just for the day. Very easy to work with, definitely recommend.”


“Karen is the best! Haku is so happy to see her every time. I really appreciated how flexible and understanding she was even with unexpected changes to my work schedule. Wonderful person, we are so excited to see her again soon!”


“Dez and wife were great. I felt really good after the initial meet n greet. When I went to drop of Frankie, I felt at ease when Frankie immediately started to pull towards Dezmond's house and happily went with him when I handed him the leash. Frankie has severe separation anxiety, but when we got to Dezmond's Frankie could not care less that I was leaving! It felt good to see how happy and comfortable Frankie was to be there. Dezmond was very communicative and kept me updated throughout the day. Frankie had a great time during his stay, loved playing with Dezmond's dogs and didn't want to leave! He left a tired, happy boy. I would recommend Dezmond and his wife again and also look forward to having Frankie have future visits with them too!”


“Even though she was sick, Kayla took great care of my 9 week old puppy today. She was great about keeping me informed, sharing photos and videos. I was impressed how much knowledge she demonstrated and shared about puppy behavior, my dog’s breed characteristics and nutrition, I feel confident leaving my puppet with Kayla will help her socialization tremendously!”

About: I’ve been dog-sitting and house-sitting for clients locally for the past 15 years. I’m an avid animal advocate and treat others pets like my own. In my spare time as a health coach, I enjoy researching pet wellness and nutrition. My clients know when they go out of town that their pet is in good hands. My current schedule and availability for pet-sitting is open, as I complete additional training for health coaching. I also work remote but have flexibility on the weekdays and I’m open on weekends. I provide care for your pets based off the directions and specifications provided. All pets are completely unique and have different needs and levels of care. I enjoy providing extra attention and play to dogs/cats who have anxiety. This can get overlooked when families are busy in their routines, and is so important for pet wellness. I have many friends who have pets with “behavioral issues,” that end up being alleviated with some extra attention, love and play.
