Doggy Day Care in Martins Additions

“Joanna and Gilbert took very good care of Snowy. They were very mindful of his feeding and walking schedule. Joanna was also very prompt with communication which I really appreciate.”

“Our puppy Cody had an amazing day at Stephanie and Shaun’s today, and I would recommend them very highly to anyone who needs boarding or sitting services. Cody got to run around and play in a beautiful yard with their family and dogs. He was very well looked after. Stephanie and Shaun were very responsive and communicative, lots of pics and updates. They saved the day by taking a same day booking request for a last minute trip. I will book them again!”

“These are 2 really nice people. The area where the dogs are allowed to go was very clean. They have easy access to the outdoors. My 2 somewhat anxious dogs came out happy and unstressed. Will definitely continue to use their services.”

About: We provide a warm, family-centered care. Your dog won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our home. We have a spacious yard for playtime, and our two young daughters are true dog lovers who enjoy keeping pups happy and entertained. We have a big fenced backyard and live near several green areas and love going on long walks, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time and attention. Losing our sweet fur baby, Sancho, has left a hole in our hearts, but it’s also deepened our love and understanding of just how special every dog is. His memory will inspire us to be the most caring, patient, and devoted dog sitters—because every pup deserves the kind of love we shared with him. In our home, your pet will be safe, active, and loved like one of our own. We usually take care of dogs on weekends or during holidays when we’re off work. This allows us to give each dog our full attention and make sure they get plenty of care, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. We like to keep dogs outdoors as much as the weather allows, either playing in our fenced backyard or going on long walks. During the day, they’re part of our family routine—getting plenty of attention and exercise. At night, we usually crate them to ensure they’re safe and comfortable while they sleep.

“Verde had a wonderful time with Rene. When we pulled up the next day she couldn’t wait to get out of the car and greet them. They kept me well updated. We’re definitely using them again.”

“Brianne and her husband took great care of Birdie! We dropped her off for daycare on Saturday. They were extremely responsive and ensured a smooth transition for both drop off and pick up. Birdie came home happy and exhausted! They definitely made sure she was exercised and cared for.”

“Juliet was very accommodating to my work schedule. She kept me informed with pictures and how Remi was doing throughout the day. She is caring, kind and sweet and will make sure your pup is taken great care of.”

“Your dog will be in great hands. I can’t recommend Johanna enough. I don’t usually leave my dog with people he doesn’t know so I was quite nervous, but she made us both feel very at ease! Johanna even played classical music for him. Amazing dog sitter!”

“Michael was fantastic with our dog, Charlie! Very responsive and provided updates throughout the day. Look forward to having Michael watch Charlie again soon!”

“My dog was happy when I came back! Everything was great and finding Shantell's house was super easy. We were just visiting DC but when we return we will likely message her again!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 7 years old, starting with my very first pet, a West Highland Terrier. Since then, I have gained years of experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I have worked with playful puppies, gentle seniors, and everything in between. These days, I spend a lot of time with my dog niece, a German Shepherd, so I am very comfortable with larger breeds and understand the energy and attention they require. What sets me apart is the natural connection I build with animals. I treat every dog as if they were my own. This includes assisting with crate training or simply being a calm and loving presence while you are away. I am reliable, patient, and always make sure pet parents feel informed and reassured through regular updates and personalized care for each dog’s unique personality. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to watch, walk, and care for pets throughout the day. Whether your dog needs regular walks, playtime, or simply some company, I can fit their needs into my daily and weekly routine to ensure they feel happy and well cared for while you are away. I provide care both in my home and at my clients’ homes, depending on what works best. I live alone with no kids or other animals, so your pet will have my full, undivided attention and a calm, quiet environment for their best comfort. At my place, I have a dedicated pet spa where I can give dogs relaxing baths and pampering. There is also a nice, safe walking area nearby where pets can enjoy exercise and fresh air. Whether your dog needs a soothing bath, a good walk, or just some quality time, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved.

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Galen. Our dog Harvey got along well with their dog Ginger and he was well tuckered out after a full day spent here! Could not reccomend more highly, we will be coming back again!”

About: Sage is a small Boxweiler (Boxer X Rottweiler) She’s a love bug and I’m excited to have her in my life. — I’ve raised my dog Blossom from the time she was 8 weeks only till 6/18/2024 so I have puppy experience. She was 15 years old and a MinPin. I lived with my best friend for 7 years and helped care for his dog Chester (8 y/o Shepard/Chow). I absolutely love dogs. I’m autistic and find I really connect with dogs of all sorts. I’m home all day for the time being until I can find a job so I can give frequent breaks and afford lots of attention for play etc. I ensure that the space is free from human food items within reach of dogs unless I’m am actively consuming something. I don’t give table food/human food to dogs except for blueberries. Since blossom was a senior dog she had stairs to help her get on the bed. She had her own bed and kennel as well. I expect and appreciate you providing a kennel that comfortably allows them to chill in for 4-6 hours if possible.

“Cynthia was a wonderful host and Charlie had a fantastic day playing with her dog Larry! We will definitely return”

“Fitz came home from her daycare stay with Amanda and Andrew so happy and ready for a nap! Amanda has been so easy to communicate with, and hosted us for a brief meet and greet before Fitz’s first stay. She asked lots of great questions about how to keep Fitz safe and happy, and drop-off/pick-up were a breeze. We so appreciate the peace of mind knowing our little girl is being treated like family. Amanda also sent pictures during the day so we could see our pup living her best life. We (and especially Fitz) can’t wait until next time!”

“Our puppy Fiona had a great stay with Chad, and Chad was super obliging and communicative when we had to adjust our second visit at the last minute. Thank you!”

“Frankie has started to care for my senior fur babies. It is really hard for Leah to separate from me, but Frankie made her feel very comfortable. I will be traveling in a few weeks and the test run with Frankie was amazing. My fur babies Luke and Leah have always traveled with me and I am looking forward to them staying with her. Frankie is one of the best people in the world to take care of your pet and I am glad that I found her.”

“Matias took such good care of my pup. He communicated very well, sending photos, and played with Carter. Matias is kind and gentle and has a lot of experience caring for dogs. I highly recommend him and will rebook with him.”

“First time using Rover and I was hesitant, but Dana exceeded my expectations! She suggested a meet and greet at her house and not only is she warm and personable, but she has the perfect backyard to play in. Klay's first week with Dana was a success! He was sad to part with her at the end of day 1 and knew her name by day 2 ?. What I appreciate most is that she's extremely reliable, professional, and has a genuine love of dogs. Thank you Dana for being responsive to every text and always giving me a good report at the end of every visit. We highly recommend Dana and have already rebooked with her! 5 paws rating ??????”
