Doggy Day Care in Markesan

About: Hello! My name is Sadie. I’m a board certified behavior analyst who works with children on the Autism Spectrum. I have a soft spot in my heart for all animals- I was that child that stepped over ants to avoid squishing them. I grew up with a Springer Spaniel, cats, and a rabbit (: I currently have 3 cats, Nimi, Gizmo, Figarro, and a dog named Perci. Additionally, I have experience caring for ferrets, goats, sheep, and fish. I’ll treat your animals as my own, and show them endless love and care. I’m super excited to meet you and your animals! I currently work full time M-F, but do make my own schedule. I see a lot of my clients either before or after work. I also have weekends off! Meet and greets are important to me for boarding to ensure it’s a good fit for your dog. However, I understand if it is not feasible. I have a dog and 3 cats who are free to roam the house and are allowed on furniture. My dog sleeps with me so yours is more than welcome to join the snuggle party! I also have a daughter (3 years old) who loves her animals, so your fur baby will get lots of love from all of us.

“Emily’s care was absolutely amazing! Her communication is spectacular and she sends many updates. Under her care, I could tell she treated our pup just like one of her own. We will definitely be back!!”

About: Hello I have been taking care of all sorts of pets since I was very young! I have experience with potty training, crate training, walking, and lots of play time. I also can give any puppers bath if need be. I also have experience with cats and many other small animals. I am free all week as I stay home with my 4 kiddos. I have 2 young kids that are 2 and 3 years old and my other 2 are 9 and 12. I always make sure that my pets and anyone else's pets are fed at a certain time, made sure they get their walks and exercise, but also make sure they get their cuddle time as well. I also make sure that they have water on hand at all times.

About: Hi I'm Matt. I'm a big animal lover, and have been in the animal field for 15yrs working with all different types of wildlife. Have experience in giving vaccines(IM or SQ), oral meds, and basic care. I have since moved onto a new adventure in lawncare. I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with a German Shepherd, a purebred Samoyed, and a tabby cat. Currently, I have 2 beagle-shepherd mixes, Hunter and Holmes, who are 2 of the sweetest boys you will meet. We are often outdoors taking our daily walk, hiking local state parks, camping, or just working in the yard. I have always loved being around animals, especially dogs, and find that having them brings such happiness to life. The boys and I are together daily. I currently work typically Mondays thru Fridays sometimes varied or longer hours. However, we always make time to go for a walk daily, and on the weekends typically are out exploring. Hunter gets meds twice a day in a pill supplement as well as I trim their nails and baths occasionally. I currently rent a duplex that has a fenced backyard, and also have a spare bedroom and wire kennel if needed. Typically my dogs free roam during the day, and are good to be alone overnight or up to 10hrs which can allow me to spend time with your furry friend.

“Kota was great with our pup Amelia. We hadn’t ever had anyone else watch her and kota definitely put my mind at ease by sending lots of pictures and updates. We aren’t from the area but if we are ever back we would definitely have her watch Amelia again. Also love that she has a fully fenced yard, huge plus and add more peace of mind.”

“Emma was great, she went above & beyond to make sure Indagos stay was great! She's so good with him. I'm so thankful she likes him & Indago liked her. I was worried being a blue healer with lots of energy. Only God could provide such a great dog sitter for him. 💛🐕💛”

About: Big-dog experience, lots of love to give! I’m great at reading dogs, meeting their needs, and keeping them happy, exercised, and cared for. Can’t wait to hang with your pup! Since I’m home full-time with my dogs, I have open availability for walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits. I am available 7 days a week. I have occasional obligations I need to attend, as well as a few personal upcoming vacations. I treat every pup like my own! I make sure they’re safe when I arrive and leave, feeling happy and relaxed during the visit, and all set until their parents get home. I follow routines closely and always go at your dog’s pace so they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: I have taken care of many of my friends pets since I was 12 which includes staying overnight at their homes when they are gone for weeks. I do long and short care sitting for pets. I love to spend time with pets and making sure they get the care they deserve. I am currently not working right now but will have a part time job soon. I will talk with the owners and work out a good schedule that will work best for all. Growing up we have used an invisible fence and radio collars to keep our dogs in our yard. We made sure to check in on them periodically while they were outside. While I'm taking care of my friends pets, I would play inside and outside with them, go on walks with them, and make sure they get the best care.

About: As someone who loves both dogs and cats, I understand that every animal has a unique personality. I know that some pets want nonstop playtime while others prefer quiet companionship. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable and respected, helping reduce stress while their owners are away. From energetic dogs to cuddly cats and senior pets needing extra attention, I provide personalized care for every animal I meet. 🐾❤️ I’m currently working part time as a server at a restaurant and the shift are very short 4-5 hours. I only work a fees shifts a week so I can be there for your pets a majority of the day!! I have a 1 bedroom apartment but it’s always clean, and there’s plenty of room! I do have a cat of my own so I would prefer to watch your pet at your home!

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and cats, I currently share my home with two cats and a senior pup. I’ve also raised chickens, quail, canaries, and cockatiels, and I’m always eager to learn about new animals. Whether it’s walks, feedings, or gentle care, I’m committed to providing love and attention. Although, Cat and kitten cuddles are my kryptonite! I am a part time working mom to a 7 year old and my availability is flexible. Walks in the summer time or evening will likely include my son. I am here to help! I am able to ensure that your pet is safe, cuddled and cared for. I can walk often when I’m close proximity to my home, am able to take certain pets in at my house and can help to crate your animals while at work or away if they are used to being crate trained. I am comfortable administering cat meds and some dog medications, of course dependent on your animal and also on how we vibe with each other energy.

“Hilary and her family is super nice and communicative. My dog had fun playing in their big yard. Will be back for more! Thanks”

“April was so helpful in providing day care for our collie, Cassie, while we were in town for vacation. She was flexible and willing to work around our schedule. We were able to take our kids to a water park, and Cassie had a fun play date and trip to the dog park. All of us came home exhausted and happy, ready for the next leg of our journey. Thanks April!”
