Doggy Day Care in McDade

“Amber was above and beyond! Josh our little guy felt like home right away and received a lot of love and attention - and lots of play with the other doggies!”

Henrique M.

“Hope provides A+++ service, care and compassion for my big guy Ghost a 115lb 2.5 year-old German Shepard/Husky mix. As my regularly scheduled doggy daycare sitter, I would describe Hope as incredibly caring, attentive, responsive, and fair. She makes me as a dog owner as well as my dog Ghost incredibly comfortable. Since attending regularly scheduled doggy daycare with her on the days I work my shifts (I’m nurse, RN), Ghost’s overall state of mind and resulting behavior has dramatically improved overall. When he comes home after his stay with Hope, he is dramatically more calm, content and relaxed. Improvements in behavior, mood, and overall well-being which I attribute to the care Hope provides for my dog. All in all, I can’t be more thankful to have found Hope to take care of my dog and best friend.”

About: Hi, I’m Gracie a devoted dog mom, passionate animal lover, and experienced volunteer who believes pets deserve the same love and attention as family. Although I didn’t grow up with animals, my heart for them has grown immensely over the past few years. My journey began when I adopted my Yorkie, Mocha.. a energetic, sweet little companion who changed everything. Caring for Mocha over the last year and a half taught me responsibility, patience, and the daily joy that pets bring. My love for animals didn’t stop at home. I began volunteering at local animal shelters and fostering dogs and cats of all kinds. Through fostering, I’ve cared for animals ranging from 1-day emergency placements to 2-week stays, giving them love, structure, and comfort while they wait for their home. This experience helped me build confidence with different breeds and personalities.. shy pets, energetic ones, and everything in between. Here’s what I bring to your pet’s care: •First-hand experience with daily routines like feeding, walking, crate training, and administering simple med •Calm and patient care for both dogs and cats •A clean, safe, and cozy environment with lots of love •A flexible part-time schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive care •A compassionate heart that treats every pet like my own At this time, I’m accepting small dog breeds and cats for pet sitting, drop-in visits, or short-term care. Whether you’re going away for the weekend or just need help during the day, I’d love to meet your furry friend and give them the love and attention they deserve. Let me know how I can help. I work part-time, and I have a flexible schedule. My off days are Friday -Monday. So I will be at home full time on my off days. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time, and a gentle, friendly dog who love having company. Whether your pet prefers playtime or their own space, I can adjust accordingly. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed and always maintain a clean, calm, and loving environment.

About: I have been a dog mama for over 15 years to 2 of the best girls. Both have passed now and while we would love to add another fur baby to our family, we are taking a break while raising our two tiny humans! Our most recent fur baby just passed 2 months ago, and we are looking to love on your sweet babies to bring some of that joy back into our home! We are very familiar with special skin care, medication, special diet needs, and separation anxiety! I'm a stay at home mom, so they will have lots of play and attention, walks around the neighborhood, especially to the local duck pond, as well as plenty of potty breaks! I'm a stay at home mom, so I'm available all day to take your fur babies for walks, let out for potty breaks, and get lots of play and attention! I have two kiddos who love dogs and love to play! I also have a good sized fenced in yard for running and potty breaks! I can provide a kennel if needed! My home is peaceful, and fully outfitted with security!

“Amanda is an amazing dog sitter that I highly, highly recommend. She is not only responsive, prompt and flexible, but she is also kind and loving. Truly authentic and has a heart of gold. My husky/german sheppard mix Ghost has not only been taken care of while at her house, but he has been truly loved and cared for. I can’t recommend Amanda enough for any pet service you may be looking for.”

About: I have a deep love and special connection with animals of all kinds, that started with the dogs and cats of my childhood. I will make friends with your pets quickly, and always ensure their utmost happiness.I am keen on attention to details and perseverance in the face of challenges. I am currently picking up gig work while in between industries. I have reliable transportation and a very open schedule. I am available to work consistently in Bastrop, Travis, and Caldwell counties. I can do shorter term work in Bexar and Hays counties. I am happy to maintain the comfortable and perfect situation you already have set up for your pets. I am careful to follow all rules you have in place.

About: I have owned cats, dogs, rabbits and chickens since I was a child. I love animals and also love caring for them. Will treat your pet like my own family pets. I work from home which allows me to spend more time loving on and caring for your fur babies. No children, one dog at home. Your pupper will have access to a fully fenced in back yard. I own a teenager spaniel and understand the importance of daily grooming - will brush, bathe, and clean ears and other "hot" spots as needed or desired. Will gladly take multiple walks throughout the day and have one on one play sessions.

About: I grew up with pets and they’ve always been part of my life. I’ve had hamsters, mice, chickens, bunnies, ducks, birds, fish, turtles, guinea pigs and of course dogs and cats. I’m definitely a dog lover, and as an adult I have gained plenty of experience pet sitting and caring for dogs, specially small breeds. I cared for my older baby (Shih-Tzu) with medical needs for many years, and in the process learned a lot about dog care and how to tell when they aren’t feeling well or something is going on. I’ve cared for dogs of friends and family who have full confidence and trust that their babies will be loved, taken care of and even spoiled when they’re under my watch. I’m currently in the process of changing career paths, and have flexibility to do boarding, drop-in visits and house sitting on most weekends and potentially some week days. The house will be dog proofed. I’m aware of things dogs can eat that will make them sick or could be damaging for their health, so those foods/items will be unreachable for dogs. They will have a good sized backyard to go out for potty breaks and play. My community has very nice and safe walking trails for dogs that need walks. If/as requested dogs can be crated but they won’t be crated otherwise. I love cuddling with my dogs so I allow them on the bed and occasionally on living room furniture. They sleep on my bed unless requested to sleep in their own bed.

“Jennifer and John were great day help for Mylo as we makes the arrangements last minute. They were very quick to respond and help. Their rates are very reasonable and Mylo was at home instantly with the family. You know a loving home when you encounter people Jennifer and John! Thanks, Till next time I will are in town. Tim @ Julie & Mylo”

I am happy to stop by, clean up, let them out and feed during visits.

“I cannot say enough good things about Sara and Cole. Today was Ellie’s first day of daycare ever. She had a blast i received pictures, videos, and texts throughout the day. Nervous Mom and Dad were quickly put at ease when we saw how much fun Ellie was having and how much Sara was enjoying watching our our baby dog. Needless to say, Ellie will be a repeat visitor Thank you, Sara!”

I also have a dog and indoor/outdoor cat and have trained them to get along and perform jobs.I I am a work from home entrepreneur with 1 acre who also works with a local farm on 20 acres, so there is always plenty of space and time to take care of animals. I have a half acre fenced yard with a standard 4' fence so as long as your doggo isn't tiny or able to jump fences they'll be able to stay outside longer if they like.
