Safe, Reliable, and Caring!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was 10. From raising, taking care of, and training our own dogs and cats, to watching the fur babies of friends and neighbors, I have experience with not only raising, but also professionally breeding purebred Bengals. I mostly owned and cared for medium to large sized dogs, from Chinese Shar-Pei’s, Pitbulls, Cane Corso, Doberman, to Olde English Bulldogge. I love animals, and treat them as if they were my own children. We usually take our animals everywhere we go, but sometimes you just have to board them, so I also know how it is trying to find a safe place to board them and worrying about your fur-baby while you are gone and have to board them. You can rest assured your baby will be well cared for while they’re waiting for you to come back and you will be updated as little or as much as you like with how they’re doing if you wish.

If you're searching for the ultimate haven for your furry friend, look no further than Doggy Day Care! As a dedicated dog parent, I can attest that this establishment goes above and beyond in providing top-notch care for our beloved four-legged companions. From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted with warmth and enthusiasm, not just from the friendly staff but also from the excited wagging tails of the resident doggos. The atmosphere is vibrant yet soothing, creating an environment where pups can thrive both socially and emotionally. As a busy pet parent, peace of mind is priceless, and Doggy Day Care delivers on that front in spades. With regular updates and photos provided throughout the day, I never have to worry about how my furry companion is faring. It's incredibly reassuring to know that while I'm away, my pup is not only safe and secure but also having the time of their life, making new friends and enjoying enriching activities. In summary, Doggy Day Care isn't just a place to leave your dog for the day—it's a home away from home, where your furry friend is treated like family. With its exceptional facilities, dedicated staff, and unwavering commitment to the well-being of every dog in its care, Doggy Day Care sets the gold standard for canine daycare experiences. Highly, pawsitively recommended!

Julie was absolutely amazing with our sweet boy! She was so attentive and sent us updates and pictures as often as we wanted and was always so quick to respond! I can’t say enough good things about her!

I can’t say enough positive things about Julia! I highly recommend! She watched my two dogs for 7 days and was seriously amazing! She met with me prior to the stay, sent photos and updates daily during the stay, and was really accommodating with my dog’s needs. Her communication is amazingly wonderful. I have no doubt she cared for my dogs well and with love!

Safety, trust & environment

Our dogs are a part of our family and enjoy living the farm life, yet staying clean. We have two friendly dogs to keep your fur-babies company, and I can crate yours if needed. We don’t have a fenced yard, but we do have enough room to walk your dogs outside on a leash to make sure they get plenty of exercise and potty breaks. I love animals and am very responsible, caring, and respectful of your home and privacy, as well as your animals. I strive to treat your home and animals as I would like mine treated (which is with highest respect).

Information Julia R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog or cat is up to date on their shots, and if your dog or cat has any behaviors or extra needs so I can provide the best service and care for them.

A typical day

I know every owner is different, and some people might enjoy different levels of care for their pet whether it’s to just have their dog or cat be minimally taken care of with just the basics like food, ample water, and potty breaks, while others might want more, so I enjoy being able to cater to the personality of your dog and your preferences for how you would like them to be cared for. Whether it’s just enjoying spending time together inside or out, or stimulating them with playtime, or the new sights and smells of our neighborhood, while keeping them safe.

I work from home most days, so your animals would be well taken care of and looked after, with ample potty breaks, treats (unless you specify you would prefer they don’t get any), toys, and play time.
