Information Ana M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your loved one has any special needs such as medications, allergies or disabilities. Our environment is safe but we understand that it is not for everyone. All the dogs we have are usually high energy dogs and they all love to play and socialize. We do have separate play areas to separate dogs based on their energy levels. If you have a senior dog please consider finding a sitter that only accepts one dog at a time.

A typical day

Whether you’re looking for a safe place for your pup to hone their social skills, or a trusted environment for your furry friend to spend the day while you’re at work, our doggy daycare groups provide a positive and stimulating environment for your best friend to socialize with the rest of the pack. Our structured play groups provide a healthy outlet for exercise that will leave your dog happy and tired at the end of the day.

Fun all day long! Full time at home

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Ana Mann and I have always been an animal lover. Growing up, my father and I rescued over 70 stray dogs in my native country of Brazil. With over 20 years of experience rescuing dogs, I am extremely comfortable working with dogs of all sizes and breeds. In 2019, my husband and I converted our 2 acre property into a fully operating daycare and boarding facility. My passion for dogs is at the heart of the work we do here at our home. Our mission is to create a safe and welcoming home away from home for your pup to play and stay. Our Day Camp Schedule We have a super fun and busy schedule at our day camp! Our day starts at 6am when the first daycare dogs arrive in the morning. Everyone is outside playing until 7am. From 7-8am we feed breakfast to all pups that are boarding with us. From 8am until 12:30pm, all daycare and boarding dogs are outside playing and having an absolute blast! We provide a lunch break between 12:30 and 2pm. It’s a nice break from the heat and a chance for the dogs to rest a bit. From 2 pm on everyone is outside socializing, swimming, playing, running, fetching etc. It’s a non stop doggie party in the afternoon between myself, my staff, my family, and all of our loving dogs. :) Dinner is served between 5-6pm. After dinner we have one final play session while watching the sunset. Final play session usually ends around 8pm. All daycares go home before 7:30pm. All boarders have a final walk at 10pm. That sums up our incredibly fun day camp here on our property! We do use XL crates while feeding the dogs so they can each have their own personal space while munching down on their favorite meals. The Facility Our outdoor facility has six fully-fenced and turfed outdoor dog parks, all equipped with security cameras, double gates, and brand new fencing. Our indoor facility provides a relaxing oasis for your pup. We have classical music playing gently at all times, and all pets have access to our outdoor parks through doggie doors. Your dog will have a blast all day fetching balls and frisbees. If your dog is a swimmer, we offer supervised play time in our screened-in pool. Thank you for reading my profile! I look forward to meeting you and your dog!

I have to go to a graduation in Gainesville, Florida as well as one in Lakeland, Florida. I had two pets with me and when I made it to Gainesville, I realize that the sitter that I was gonna use was not gonna be available so I immediately called Rover and got in touch with Anna. She is amazing. Her facility is top notch my dogs were very happy and when they came home, the place is clean. The people are great. They sent me pictures. They kept in touch with me and let me know that my animals were doing well. I highly suggest them if I could give this place at 10 I would.

Highly recommend! Everyone was nice and accommodating. Our fur baby is part of our family and I felt comfortable leaving him in excellent care!

Excellent experience for me. Accommodating and very quick responses to my questions. My little angel had such a good time and this is the only place I’ll ever use to watch my dog!
