Doggy Day Care in Mount Hermon

“Sandy really loved her time with Denise and Quarky. She tried to run back into Denise's house as we were putting her in the car, so we'll definitely have to book again, the next time we're in Santa Cruz. Denise was easy to communicate with and drop-off/pick-up was a breeze.”

“Sommer was amazing! It was a last minute booking and she was comfortable meeting us and helping us make our dog more comfortable with her. She even took her to the dog park and took tons of pics. Would highly highly recommend her! Thank you again :)”

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner. I can care for a variety of pups from young and energetic to senior pups. I love to take my own dogs on my adventures throughout the Santa Cruz mountains from casual walks to long adventure runs and so I can accommodate whatever your dog needs. I also like to spend time training and practicing commands because dogs also like to be engaged mentally along with the physical. Of course love and affection through cuddles is always guaranteed and unlimited. I have lots of experienced with many different dog personalities and can accommodate them accordingly to make sure they are well cared for. I have a very flexible schedule that is mostly already based around my own pups so I am very much able to accommodate yours as well! I have availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets throughout the day and evening. I already incorporate activities like dog walking and trail running into my daily routine which means I can offer active dogs a great adventure while also being available for quiet cuddle and consistent care for all pets. In my home, I treat every guest like family. My home is a safe, dog-friendly environment with a fenced yard where they can play safely. We'll follow their regular feeding schedule and I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise with daily walks, running for high-energy dogs, and lots of mental stimulation. In the evenings, it's all about cuddles and relaxation on the couch, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priority is to maintain their familiar routine. I'll adhere strictly to their feeding schedule, walking routine, and any specific commands they know. My goal is to be a calm and reliable presence, providing consistent care and affection in their own environment. I'll also ensure your home is kept clean and secure, leaving it just as I found it.

“Nancy definitely receives a 6 star review! Loved Nancy and her pups at the meet and greet before I dropped my puppy. I received pictures of my puppy, Hali'a, throughout the day which gave me piece of mind that she was happy. When I picked her up after 12 hours, Hali'a was pretty tired . A pooped puppy is a good puppy. We will definitely be seeing Nancy again❣️”

“I am over the moon about Daisy's full-day stay with Shannon and her family! I knew that Daisy had a great day because she fell fast asleep on the way home, and while she was happy to see me at pick-up, I could also tell she really liked her hosts. She went back and forth greeting me and going back to Shannon or her husband to get her head scratched; there was big tail wagging going on there! Shannon is certainly knowledgeable and experienced in caring for dogs, responsible, kept my pup safe, and supported Daisy's quirks and needs. She and her family followed my requests and instructions perfectly. Shannon sent pictures, which my husband and I so appreciated, and was responsive and clear in all her communications. She was flexible when I requested a time change for drop off and was fine when I wanted to come a bit earlier than scheduled for pick up. Daisy will be very excited, and I will be very happy & confident leaving her again with Shannon ~ I highly recommend her to care for your pet! You get her and her wonderful family!”

“Mariah took such good care of my pup! She had great communication and sent so many cute pictures throughout the day. Wrangler came home happy and tired in the best way I would definitely trust her watching him again (:”

“Roxy loves going to stay with Marina and Alec. They have the most amazing “dog park” in amongst the redwoods where Roxy plays with the other dogs and loves her best life. She gets lots of love, care and attention and it’s clear when we collect her that she’s really bonded. I can’t recommend Marina and Alec highly enough!”

About: Hi All! Thank you so much for thinking of me for your pet care needs! About Me :~) I absolutely love dogs! And I enjoy seeing the delight of pet-parents as I connect with and love up their furbabies like family. I have experience with various breeds including Border Collies, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Goldens, Labs, Terriers, and love caring for them all. I have some puppy training experience and am happy to continue with the training routines you are currently working on. I also love caring for older dogs and am comfortable administering medicine. I enjoy being active, going for walks, throwing the ball, and supporting their needs. I will communicate with you regularly while you are away. Please feel free to talk to me about any questions or concerns you have. Look forward to talking more! I have a flexible schedule and usually go to my office for about 4 hours per day, so have time go check in on the pets. I am conscientious about caring for my client’s home and leave them clean. I stick to their schedules and spend plenty of time playing with and pampering them. I tend to be out of the house for a few hours on MWF, though have a generally flexible schedule and can support your pet's needs. I keep the rules you have set in place with your animals around what they are and aren’t allowed to do, and care for your house like my own.

About: I’ve owned pets for 30+ years and have a great deal of experience caring for a variety of animals. I have cared for my own animals and friends and families pets as well. I’ve been a dog lover as long as I can remember and have owned dogs my whole life. This is actually the first time that I have been without a dog and would love to care for others to fill that void.

I would love to build this into my schedule and am excited about the opportunity! I have a fenced yard and safe home for animals. I don’t currently have any pets but two little ones who would love to play and hang out with your animals! Dogs must be good with small children to hang out at my home.
