Doggy Day Care Near East

About: I adopted a hound mix from the shelter who was so afraid of the world and has become the most well-adjusted, friendly boy in the world! I also adopted a stray dog in December who has already grown leaps and bounds! I would love to pet sit/dog walk for you and love taking dogs to their own private sniff spots when they spend numerous days with me :) I am pet-sitting full time, so I have all the time to focus on caring for pets :) I am willing to come to your home anytime of day or pet sit in my home, 7 days a week. I have two friendly dogs at home and can watch your pet at home. Otherwise, I am more than happy to pet sit at your home! Dogs stay on leash unless we are at a fenced sniffspot, as approved by owner :)

“Super kind and kept me updated all day! Baker had so much fun playing with all the other dogs, would recommend!”

About: I’ll make sure they get an opportunity to enjoy themselves when you’re not available, and I’ll make sure their needs are met. You book me, you can trust your pet is taken care of. Flexible schedule. Available weekends upon special request. M-F, 9am to 10am, 12pm to 1pm, 4pm to 5pm are only times available as of right now I have a fenced yard, and two crates available. I prefer to understand the animal and client’s normal routine and proactively plan a meet and greet so the animal becomes familiar with me before further interactions.

“This was the first time for our Richmond! Lauren is super communicative and just getting pictures of Richmond put us at ease. We could tell he enjoyed himself. So awesome!”

“Simon was great! My baby had so much fun with him. He replied super quickly and agreed to take care of her on short notice. He also sent pictures, which was a huge relief for me and gave me peace of mind knowing she was happy. When I went to pick her up, she didn’t even want to leave! On the second day of daycare, she jumped out of the car and didn’t even look back. I’ll definitely book with him again!”

“Mary was very accommodating on such short notice. I was informed by messages, pics and videos throughout day. Dogs were happy. Everything went real well. Glad there is a trusted pet lover that can lend a hand.”

“My dog LOVES Shanelle and her dog, Ray. He goes 2x a week and is SO excited when I drop him off and exhausted when I pick him up after work. Shanelle sends me constant pictures and videos while I’m at work and I feel so comfortable/ relieved knowing he is there enjoying his day. Highly recommend 🐾”

About: Hi! I am a pet owner and enthusiast. Since I am a professor, I work from home and have a lot of free time in summers and holidays to hang out with your wonderful dog. I love getting to know a pet’s wants, anticipate their anxieties, and most importantly play! My work requires me to be on-site part time, so I am quite flexible for overnight stays, extra long walks, and boarding at my place with my sheltie Flora. I have a two bedroom apartment with my sweet, spayed sheltie Flora who loves to play and take naps. I am quite active so I would be happy to take your dog on long epic walks.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since 2015, but I’ve had pets all my life. I truly treat every animal like family. Caring for my pitbull for 13 years and my cat for 8 years, immediately after that, I understand deep, loyal love. What sets me apart is my calm, intuitive energy. Pets feel safe, seen, and comforted in my care. I’m currently in the slow season with my company and have lots of time to dedicate to taking care of your fur babies. I have 2-4 hours of time I may have to work a day but the rest is becoming besties with your bestie. ☺️ I have a fenced in yard and no existing pets. Your fur baby will feel nice and safe like they are on vacation too with lots of love and attention.

“Sydney was a huge lifesaver when I needed someone to watch my dog while in town for a few days. She was awesome with my dog Atlas, who’s usually pretty skeptical of new people, and he loved playing with her dog Honey”

Kaitlin S.

“This was my first time ever having a dog sitter and Michelle made it such an easy and great experience. Michelle provided lots of pictures and videos and made sure my Aussie got plenty of attention and exercise. I highly recommend Michelle and would definitely leave my dog with her again.”

“Sean is the best! He always comes through when l need him to watch my baby and he has even helped me out when I forget dogfood. Sean is very flexible and is understanding with my last minute schedule changes as well. Sean really does treat us like family and my Oso loves him!”

About: I care for ONE pet family at a time, giving your fur kiddos undivided attention! I work from home and have a secure, fenced in yard. My goal is for your pet to feel safe and loved while you’re away. A mutual stress relief, hanging with your pet is the best part of my day! I work from home full time, and provide frequent potty and sunshine breaks. I am available between 745am - 830pm for pickups and drop offs. My home is designed with pets in mind — safe, calm, and full of love. I live in a clean, cozy space where cats and pups can explore, nap, and get comfy. I’m mindful of every detail, from secure doors and windows to quiet corners for shy or senior pets. My own two friendly cats are used to sharing their space and love making new friends, but I can easily provide separation if your pet prefers solo time. I follow feeding and medication schedules carefully and keep a close eye on every guest’s comfort and well-being. You can expect regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and cared for as if they were my own.

“Katie was extremely professional and we knew our fur baby was in good hands. We only needed day care for a quick trip in town but she's the first person we'll call if we have needs in Columbus again. Highly recommend!”

About: Being a senior makes me old school, like being exactly on time or a bit early. I subscribe to the Dog Whisperer tenet of being ALPHA and pack leader to dogs in my care. A dog in a pack is a happy dog. I only use positive reinforcement. Ex.: dog pulling on the leash can be fixed by changing directions every 4 steps to the left, walking in a square, this encourages the dog to slow down and watch his human. Dog hair is a welcome addition to a life well lived, that's why my dogs get furniture and bed privileges. One fact about my dogs i pay attention to is how many sips of water they take. On a very hot day I've seen 30-40. This helps me know easily how my pet is feeling so I can react accordingly. Maybe time to put the soft Frisbee away! I'm fully retired, and rise early, so morning walks are easy. Breakfast is next, and 1hr later another walk outside. I like to prep a bag to take to the park. My fav is Schiller Park in German Village. I don't own a pet currently, I've had some health issues that are now resolved. Having been an owner twice in my life has given me many many experiences so I am flexible.

About: From my experience growing up on a farm to caring for two dogs and a cat as a young professional, I've developed quite a bit of pet care knowledge and skills. I've cared for puppies and kittens and adult dogs and cat through good times and hard times. Over the years, I've learned a lot and I'm happy to use that experience to care for your's as well. My wife and I both work from home during the week so we have plenty of time for pet care. When our dog Frank was around, we would often go on walks with him and my daughter and visit local parks. Unfortunately, we don't have time to care for puppies or kittens at this stage in life but adult dogs and cats are welcome. We live in downtown Columbus in a single family home with a large fenced yard. We're surrounded by lots of sidewalks and live within walking distance to several parks. In our home, we have a large soft crate for dogs and small crates for cats, if needed. We expect all pets to be potty/house trained and dogs to sleep in a crate overnight. We don't allow dogs on furniture or in beds, but they're welcome throughout the home. Our cat, Cleo, roams the house but will often stay on the 2nd floor when new pet friends stay over. She has been great with new cats and dogs, often warming up to them after a day or two. We also have a 2.5 year old daughter who is home most of the week. She's great with cats and dogs and we expect any pets that stay with us to be comfortable with children.

“Latisha is an incredible sitter and went above and beyond in a way that I can’t even begin to mention in a tiny review on this website. I am forever grateful to have found her to watch my baby boy.”
