Doggy Day Care Magnolia

About: I’ve been caring for pets and house sitting since I was a kid, with over 15 years of hands-on experience including formal pet care and training. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and if I hadn’t ended up in tech, I probably would’ve become a vet! I work from home full-time, so your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced backyard, which is perfect for safe playtime during boarding stays. I have experience with pets of all ages and needs — from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a calm, cozy environment. I live with my fiancé and our 2-year-old mini doodle, Bear. He’s about 15 lbs of pure sweetness and loves other dogs, but he’s also very good at giving space to pups who prefer a quieter vibe. If you’re considering boarding, I always want to make sure you’re fully comfortable with him sharing the home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority! Work from home, daily care with a wide open schedule! Always happy to go on daily walks and keep your pet company throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard and a sweet little doodle to keep your pet company. I also work from my computer, so quick to respond to messages and happy to send photos of your pet’s visit!

“We are so grateful to have found Felix! We asked him to help get our high-energy puppy used to in-home daycare, and he has gone above and beyond from day one. ​Before starting, Felix provided a detailed, thoughtful plan of how he intended to introduce Loki to his routine, which immediately put our minds at ease. After each session, he follows up with thorough feedback on how it went. He even takes the extra time to share practical tips and exercises we can practice at home to help Loki feel more comfortable in new environments. ​Loki is a work in progress, but Felix has been incredibly patient and genuinely willing to work with him to help him get the support he needs. We couldn't ask for a more attentive or dedicated dog sitter!”

“Lupine had another great visit with Natalia. She’s currently sleeping on my lap bc she was all tuckered out! She probably wishes she was there every day!”

“Brooke has taken care of our dog Yakko a few times now. She is super responsive, sends pictures regularly and Yakko always comes back happy (and tired!). We are happy we found her and thankful we can trust her our dog while we are at work or out of town. ”

About: I got my first pup when I turned 11 and have cared for them ever since, going on 14 years of owning a pet. Both dogs and cats! I enjoy interacting with pets and making them feel special on walkies or just hanging out with them. I currently run a small business so I am able to set my own hours and attend to other things such as walking or caring for your pet. I have a fenced in yard and three fur children in my household. Two dogs and a cat. I can also crate if needed for your pet.

“Tiffany was such a wonderful sitter for my pup! She was very sweet with him and sent pictures along the way. I could tell my pup had a great time once I picked him up.”

About: I am comfortable with any dog, no matter the breed, age, activity level, or behavior! If your pup is dog friendly come join us for daycare! I offer pack walks with my pup as well as solo walks! I have experience with senior dogs as well as puppies and various behaviors/temperments! I have volunteered with shelter dogs in the past as well as experience working in daycare facilities and grooming salons! I currently am working as a junior groomer and typically am home all day during my days off unless I have something planned! During daycare we spend lots of time playing and going on adventures! I have all the time and attention to give to the pups! I treat every dog like they are my own! I believe every dog deserves the most respect! I give the dogs the highest level of my attention! I make sure to keep pet parents updated with lots of check ins and cute pictures of their pup! :)

“My dog developed separation anxiety after our recent move, and he’s not always comfortable being watched by people, but he is so comfortable with Jill and Jacob! He is well cared for and gets really excited to see them when I drop him off now.”

About: Recently retired and petless at the moment, although I have almost always had a dog. I enjoy getting to know the personalities and needs of dogs and participating in their daily care needs, whether walking for exercise or potty breaks, socializing at home or the park, or ensuring they are fed and cared for when you aren’t available. I live in Belltown, so I’m available in adjacent neighborhoods of LQA, SLU, or downtown areas. Recently retired so finding ways to contribute after my career in education and academic administration. I’m active and in my late 50s with a flexible schedule. Happy to chat or negotiate for ongoing clients. I am committed to protecting, caring for, and understanding your pet and I value being entrusted with the care of this member of your family.
