Doggy Day Care Moscow

About: I have three decades of dog knowledge, appreciation and love. In addition to my four legged family of rescue dogs, I have fostered 170+ dogs of all sizes, ages and needs. I have a great deal of experience with dogs in transition, which allows me provide a compassionate, structured, enriching, understanding and safe environment. I have done many classes with my own dog family, so they are a well behaved and comforting presence to new visitors. I live in the beautiful driftless countryside with two acres of fenced yard and plenty of room to run and play. I have a flexible schedule so the dogs enjoy a lot of one on one time and frequent opportunities for potty breaks. The household is generally quiet and calm. Dogs who need extra exercise or activity are welcome to join on our walks and hikes, with your permission. There is usually someone in the pack who will want to either play or snuggle - depending on your dog's unique disposition and desires. I am able to take young to senior dogs and am open to all activity levels. I can manage some special needs, medical needs and behaviors if you reach out in advance to see if I can provide the fit your dog needs. (Because we are a multi-dog household I can only take dog-social dogs. Hope you can understand. :-) ) If your four legged family member would like some fresh country air and responsible care while you are away - please reach out! The household wakes up when the old beagle does and we all go to bed when the pack lies down for the night. Life here very much revolves around the dogs! I have a flexible schedule, so most days someone is home for frequent potty breaks. Dogs have their choice of spending time outside, when it is nice; or relaxing on a sofa, a dog bed - or our bed. In the warm months I put a doggie pool out for the water loving family. The house is surrounded by a two acre fenced yard with long grass, paths, trees and a garden which allows them plenty of space to roam, play, smell and explore. I always accompany small dogs or new dogs at all times when they go outside. Once middle to large sized dogs show that they are comfortable with the other dogs and the environment, I will let them in and out at their discretion. Small dogs always go outside with a person, for safety. Dogs who need slow introductions can have one of the spare bedrooms to themselves for as much time as they need. The household has a huge amount of experience with dog introductions and I never make assumptions about dogs getting along until I have observed and accompanied them in meeting the other dogs in the household. My personal dogs have been introduced to other dogs hundreds of times and are reliable and trained. I have had many dogs who arrive very fearful or anxioius and I have knowledge of how to use comforting body language and voice to lend them support as they adjust. I am aware of how to apply and appropriately use a double harness-leash system for flight risk dogs. And I am willing to sleep with an anxious dog in a separate bedroom, if that is what is what they need to be able to relax and feel safe and at home.

About: Former full-time human medical provider of 18 years; now available for pup sitting. Takes frequent walks with the neighborhood dog pack. Owner of one special dog named Tennessee. I’m free to organize my schedule between pet sitting, my personal business, pursuing new adventures in the pet industry, hobbies, and full time job in health IT, which is 50% remote. I like routine. I think pets appreciate kibble and potty breaks on a familiar schedule. I will honor your wishes for care, play, walks, and socializing.

About: We will care for your dog like our own! Since our wonderful dog Stella passed we are looking to add more positive dog energy to our home. I am experienced with senior care; giving medications and supporting older dogs. I also have 4 years experience with dog walking and welcome energetic dogs. Both my husband and I work from home and will keep your dog company and make sure all needs are met. We have two children, ages 8 and 10, who have been raised to love and respect dogs and other animals. We only sit dogs from one household at a time so you can rely on individualized, attentive care. We have a fenced backyard and one friendly dog, Izzy. We will be your dog’s home away from home, with lots of exercise, cuddling, and fun.

About: I've cared for cats and dogs my own as well as other owners, for the last 20-plus years I also have experience with other kinds of animals. I protect animals fiercely and I am extremely receptive of detail and specifics that any pet owner may have for me. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.

“Lorelei was so great with our dog!! She has the perfect set up to allow the dogs to run around and play while also being able to always have eyes on them! She kept me updated with pictures and videos. She was very lenient with our pick up time! I would recommend Lorelei for your next sit!! We will 100% be using her again!! 😊”

About: I have taken care of dogs from all age groups. Whether a senior dog who needs frequent bathroom breaks or a puppy who wants lots of attention and reinforcement, I love all of them. Besides, being a tennis player means I gotta put my unlimited supply of balls to use:) I work from home three days a week. If our furry guest prefers lots of attention or frequent bathroom breaks, it would be a perfect match. I only take in one dog a time. There won’t be other pets at home. There’s a dog run in my apartment complex. I also live within walking distance of a dog park.

About: I have over two years of experience with dog walking and dog sitting, along with professional experience working at a dog grooming facility and dog hotel. I was responsible for caring for dogs staying at the hotel, making sure they were safe, comfortable, and well cared for during their stay. I’m also a dog owner myself! I have three dogs: Liah, a Shih Tzu, and Lilo and Lady, two Australian Labradoodles. Having three dogs with different personalities has given me plenty of experience with different needs, energy levels, and routines. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I make sure every dog gets the time and attention they need. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work with each owner’s schedule and their dog’s normal routine. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my priority. From my experience working at a dog hotel, I understand the importance of following each dog’s routine, feeding instructions, and individual needs. In a client’s home, I’ll respect their space and follow all instructions carefully while making sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“Eric and Rachel took such good care of my little girl! They helped her feel comfortable and provided great pictures and updates throughout the day. So grateful for their compassion and caring personalities!”

About: I grew up on a horse farm. I always had dogs for most of my life . Except when I lived in an apartment for a short time where I could not have one. My sister and I use to have fake dog shows as kids. It was so much fun. Now I have 2 loveable doggies of my own that i adopted . They love our fenced in backyard and my daughter and I walk them every day as a team.When Taylor was a toddler we would go out and visit grandma and aunt / sister and give chino her dog lots of love and walks. Also in the last 5 years my late moms dog rosie who was also adopted. Dogs are great.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, so I understand the different needs of every animal. From energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a bit more care and attention, I know how to adapt. Whether it's providing daily walks, offering training, or simply offering companionship, I ensure every pet feels comfortable and loved. I believe in treating each pet as an individual, providing the right care for their unique personality, and making sure they feel safe and happy in your absence. As a student, my schedule is very flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I don’t have classes on Mondays or Fridays, and during the week I have breaks between classes—perfect for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. I also spend most evenings and nights at home, which makes boarding a great fit for me. I love having animals around and giving them the time, attention, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure the space is safe, calm, and comfortable. For dogs, I can easily crate them if needed and always keep a leash on hand for safety during walks and potty breaks. I follow their routine closely to help them feel at home. For cats, I have plenty of toys and love spending time playing, feeding, and giving them the quiet companionship they enjoy during visits.
