Doggy Day Care • Mar 15, 2026

Azu and her sweet family did an excellent job caring for my pup for a full 12-hour day while I was at a local conference. I did not worry about her one bit! Priceless.

Very impressed! My doggie left happy and exhausted from a great day of playing! I appreciated the photo updates and the goodie bag at the end, very thoughtful. Will definitely be coming back. ❤️

I really appreciated Azu taking care of my pups. I loved the personal attention she provided to them. I loved getting pictures from her showing me how the pups were doing. My pups will be back for dog care when I have to be out of town.

Safety, trust & environment

Lodging: At our home, your pets experience the best of both worlds. The fully fenced front yard with a majestic California Pepper Tree, provides a cool, shaded space for play and potty breaks. Meanwhile, the securely enclosed backyard is primarily paved for allergy-sensitive pups. Rest easy knowing that dogs are never left unsupervised during outdoor time in either yard. Indoors, our puppy-proofed home boasts numerous doggy beds that are washed daily and replaced monthly for sanitation and quality purposes. All furry guests are welcome on furniture for cuddle time, unless instructed otherwise by their owners. Your pet's comfort and adherence to their normal routines are our top priorities!

Pets

A typical day

Your furry friend's typical day at Critters: We kick off our days early, maximizing the fun during their stay! Meals are served separately to ensure each pet enjoys their dining experience, accommodating all diet types. With a focus on age-appropriate and breed-specific activities, we prioritize mental stimulation and enrichment that are all-inclusive. Balancing activity with rest, we incorporate nap time into the day. I supply all necessary materials for these activities and adhere to the owner's structure for any diet restrictions. Scheduled supervised outdoor time every 2-3 hours includes potty breaks, play sessions, and sensory activities. Weather permitting, we extend socialization and training routines for an enriching experience.
