Doggy Day Care Midway

“Nancy was most accommodating! Beautiful country. Visiting from out of town and wanted a place where my German Shepherd could socialize and play with other dogs to get wore out for the journey home the next day. Large fenced yard. She even let my 116 lb dog inside for a visit. I would DEFINITELY trust her with my baby again!”

“I was visiting family in the area, and I left my 40 lb female husky with Kimberly for the day. My husky gets anxious in new environments and loves to be outside. Kimberly helped her get acquainted with the new surroundings and took her for SO many walks! When I picked my husky up at the end of the day, she was very happy and very tired! I would definitely contact again and recommend Kimberly. I felt very comfortable, she was very communicative & clearly cared about my husky having a good day too!”

About: I really try to make pets feel at home. I’ve cared for anxious pups and cats, and seniors, before, so I’m extra tuned in to their comfort and what helps them settle. I pay attention to the little things — their pace, their quirks, what makes them relax — and adjust to whatever they need. I’m patient, gentle, and I do my best to make every pet feel safe and comfortable while they’re with me. Because I work from home and keep a flexible schedule, pet care fits easily into my day. I am a dog-mom myself and my little one, Louie, loves having friends over! I’m able to offer regular potty breaks, play sessions, and lots of companionship. I maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — meals, walks, training cues, and downtime — so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, calm, and comfortable environment with plenty of room to explore. I have a large fenced‑in yard, which gives dogs space to play, sniff, and stretch their legs while staying secure. I keep a steady routine with regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and quiet rest. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule, training cues, and comfort needs so their stay feels familiar and stress‑free. Whether a dog loves active play or prefers gentle companionship, I adjust the pace to match their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their normal routines exactly as you describe them. I respect your space, your rules, and your pet’s established habits. I make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and reassurance while you’re away. My goal is always the same in any setting: help your pet feel safe, understood, and loved.

About: I have over 10 years of experience working with my own and others' dogs, including 5 years of professional experience at a doggy daycare and a local rescue. I've cared for dogs of every age, breed, and temperament — including dogs other sitters have called aggressive. My own reactive lab/weimaraner mix taught me to read body language and keep dogs comfortable in any situation, and I'm now a professional dog trainer. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, your dog's routine gets followed exactly and they're treated like my own. Open and flexible mornings, evenings, and weekends, holidays all work. Recurring drop ins, walks and overnight stays welcome. Last minute requests okay with quick confirmation. I will help to maintain the boundaries you have set for your household and I am comfortable working with all different pets. If there is a specific routine you have set up for your house I will abide by it.

I’m very trustworthy and will treat your dog as if they’re my own. Since I live in an apartment i’m happy to take your dog on walks frequently if they’re staying overnight with me and will give them absolutely all my attention!

About: As a dog owner and foster, I have experience caring for senior dogs, nervous rescues, and multiple dogs at once. I prioritize individualized care, patience, and creating a stress-free environment. I work from home full-time, giving me the flexibility to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship so pets feel safe and comfortable. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I follow their established routine for meals, walks, exercise, and rest. I provide attentive care, patience, and an stress-free environment while making sure owners stay updated. I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and three senior dogs who are calm and friendly companions.

About: Hi there! I'm so excited to meet you and your furry family members! Animals have always been my greatest passion, and I've been fortunate enough to turn that passion into a career filled with some pretty incredible experiences! With a bachelor's degree in Equine Science and a master's degree in Marine Biology and Conservation, I've dedicated much of my education and professional life to understanding, caring for, and working alongside animals of all shapes and sizes. My professional background includes working as a veterinary technician, zoological specialist at Busch Gardens, marine mammal biologist, and dolphin trainer. Throughout these roles, I've gained extensive hands-on experience in animal husbandry, behavioral observation, training, enrichment, and providing individualized care. I've had the privilege of working with animals ranging from horses and household pets to dolphins, giraffes, and other exotic species! My veterinary background has also given me valuable experience recognizing changes in animal behavior, understanding health and wellness needs, and remaining calm and attentive in situations requiring extra care. But beyond my degrees and professional experience, I'm simply someone who absolutely adores animals. I understand that pets aren't just pets—they're family. And trusting someone else with a member of your family is a big deal! Whether your pet is joining me for boarding, heading out for a walk, or enjoying a drop-in visit, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. Whether you have an energetic pup who loves adventures, a senior dog who prefers a slower pace, or a shy pet who needs a little extra patience, I'm happy to tailor my care to what makes them happiest. You can also expect plenty of updates and pictures while your pet is in my care, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your best friend is having a wonderful time! From dolphins and giraffes to dogs and cats, caring for animals has never been just a job to me. It's what I love most! I can't wait to meet your four-legged family members! 🐾❤️ I’m currently working from home and I am a part time student getting my doctorate in animal sciences. I have fairly open availability as much of my work and school work right now is all in house. For boarding I have open availability. For walks I can do anything after 12pm. For drop ins again ai can do anything after 12pm. Pet care is the upmost importance to me, and we can customize the schedule to what your pet needs! My apartment has a dog park attached to it so we can go outside and run and play! My neighbor has a large amount of sidewalks and grass that makes for great walks and sniffing time. I have a cat in the house that adores dogs and other cats and just wants to cuddle all the time, all of her stuff is raised so dogs can’t get into it. I want your pets to be happy and feel safe so if they need a crate or need anything else specific to them let me know and we will work it out!!

“John was excellent! I ended up reaching out to him last minute due to a schedule change, and he was very kind and accommodating. Throughout the day, John sent multiple pictures and updates, and he even spoiled him with some homemade food! Our a little guy had such a great time. Will definitely be bringing him back!”

About: Hi I’m Raquel ! I’ve been in a home of pet lovers and care takers my whole life! My mom is a dog groomer and I’ve handled and cuddled all dogs and cats of all sizes & have watched & learned to care for every ones extended families (fur babies)! With a small old dog of my own I’ve been able to experience a full spectrum of dog parenting and would love to take care of your pets so you can rest and relax knowing they’re in good hands :) I teach yoga a few hours a week and enjoy getting steps in and hanging with dog friends in the between, this let’s me continue my yoga gig and do something else I love too! I try to stay as close as I can to the routine of the animal and what’s “normal” for them and comforting them while owners are away. And maybe a few extra treats ;) near our home is a dog park + plenty of space to roam for in-home pet visits as well!

“We needed a last minute day camp for our Jack Russel. She responded back right away. This was his first stay away from home. She sent pictures and messages. We are so grateful for her care!”

About: I have had multiple dogs my entire life, & multiple cats. I currently have a mini Australian Shepherd at home & a grey cat! My golden retriever husky recently passed, but I have lots of experience with puppies & hyper dogs! I just have classes at UK, so lots of free time outside of class time! I am free on weekends & love to care for pets & love going on walks with dogs:) I have lots of training experience, & have even raised my own puppy & kitten from a very young age. I am also a very clean & organized person.

About: I truly love spending time with animals and treat every pet like they're my own. I'm patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, lots of playtime, or just wants someone to cuddle with, I'm happy to provide the care they're most comfortable with. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions to make sure your pet stays happy, healthy, and safe while you're away! I am currently home full time and am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! My house has a large back yard that’s perfect for dogs to play and run around in! It’s not fenced in but I’m very active and am happy to run around with your dog on a leash! We have one dog at our house who is smaller, but gets along and plays with other dogs very well. My dog gets excited and barks when he sees other dogs, but will calm down after a couple of minutes. My family and I are all pet lovers and they have had a lot of experience with pets as well. I also go on run and walks daily and would be happy to take your dog or pet along with me!

About: I have been caring for animals since I was a small child, growing up on a farm with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, goats, sheep, and ducks. I currently share three rescue dogs with my partner, who all love meeting new dog friends! I was a small animal vet tech for several years, and am very comfortable administering medications, including insulin, as well as reading dog behavior and body language to ensure safety. I can confidently manage play time and I’m willing to step in if someone looks like they need a break. We have a fully-fenced, secure backyard, with 6-ft privacy fencing and plenty of room to run! My partner and I both work from home, so dogs are rarely left unattended. Two of our dogs are crate-trained (our senior boy does not get crated). My partner and I both work from home to accommodate our dogs. The dogs are rarely left unattended, unless we are going somewhere together. We set aside time to play with our dogs and take them for walks and hikes. I have a fully-fenced backyard secured with 6 ft privacy fencing. I am confident in reading dog body language and behavior and have no problem stepping in to allow breaks in play time. Our dogs are very friendly with others and are fully vaccinated, and we welcome other vaccinated dogs with regular disinfection between client pups.

“Sable had another wonderful, exciting, yet relaxing time with Jason, Brooke, their entire family, and their dog Toby. Thank you, Rover.com, and a special thanks to Jason and Brooke for your loving care of Sable. God bless you all!”
