Doggy Day Care in Nevada City

“Louisa was absolutely wonderful! On our trip up to Ashland, we were hit with wildfires in the neighboring area and the air quality was horrible. Our original arrangements for our dog fell through and I didn't feel comfortable leaving my dog alone in a kennel outdoors for a couple of hours at our air bnb, but thankfully there was Louisa. My dog can be a bit anxious around other dogs she doesn't know. She growled a bit at Louisa's puppy when we arrived for our meet and greet and I was worried that behavior may continue. Louisa was very reassuring and kept us posted on our dogs behavior and well being. She sent photos through out the day and I was so happy to have someone so trusting & responsive take care of our dog while we were out of town. Thank you so much Louisa!”

“What a great environment for my dog. The backyard is a dog's dream, especially if your pup likes to run. Yolanda was very accommodating when I was delayed and kept me informed of how Beau was doing during his stay. I would highly recommend Yolanda and her Doggy Day Care.”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I run a 501(c)(3) dog rescue, regularly transport dogs, care for puppies, seniors, and special-needs dogs, administer medications, work on basic training, leash manners, and provide structured, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule because animals are already a central part of my daily life. I work from home and plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, medications, enrichment, and individualized care. This flexibility allows me to be reliable, responsive, and fully present for each pet. I have 2 600+ feet plus areas for dogs to run and play. We have a building for them to sleep cozy, clean and safe.

About: I love being with older and disabled animals. I have my experience from working in Animal Shelters for about 2 years, doggie daycares, pet crematories and also petsitting for different companies and myself over 20 yrs. I am a full time traveling pet/housesitter with my 14 yr old pup. I have owned many animals throughout my life and have experience with meds, subQ fluids, end of life, aggressive dogs/cats and finicky pets. I'll treat your babies as if they were mine! I can also share many reviews from other platforms upon request. I am always available to help you out with your fur babies anytime! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. Everyday, any time I will follow all directions given in writing on how to care best for your sweet baby. I can do walks, playtime, exercise, training, massage and reiki and anything else needed!

About: Offering a safe home away from home, compassionate care, and peace of mind for pet owners is something that all pet sitters should be offering. I go far beyond this standard providing both care and training. Since I was a child, dogs and cats have gravitated toward me and I've always enjoyed their companionship; you can almost always find me with at least one dogs around. It's never been an unruly mass of teeth and paws though; I've always taken the time to teach my furry friends to walk on leash, to have immediate recall, to be polite in kitchen, and to use their voices kindly. I do the same with every animal that I am given care of, gently coaching them to be civil, furry companions while showering them with love. I am currently working from home and set my own schedule. I have a set daily morning and evening walk which your pup(s) will join. During the day, you pup(s) will have company of two dogs, three cats and plenty of pets from me. On weekends we go on adventure hikes. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company during the day. I have crates, leashes, grooming tools and home made dog beds for all pet care needs.

About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life. I'm recently retired from a long career as a professional equestrian and horse trainer, and I'm excited to begin this journey of offering pet care services to the community! I have experience with all types and ages of pets ... from very young to very senior. I have experience administering medications, giving injections, and basic first aid. My lifestyle is active, and I'm happy to provide whatever exercise that your pet needs, whether that is a long trail hike, or simply walks around the neighborhood. And lots of love and snuggles of course :) I also have extensive horse experience, and limited experience with other livestock, and I'm happy to provide services for those animals as well. I currently work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, which allows me to work around whatever your pet care needs are. I have a reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle, so I can get to some of the further out Nevada County destinations no problem. I pride myself on being punctual, organized and reliable, and you can rest assured that your pet(s) and home will receive attentive and loving care. I am happy to take care of any additional tasks that you might need around your home while you're away (checking mail, taking out trash, watering plants/garden, etc. )

“Deborah took great care of our dog, Wallace. She was very professional and extremely flexible. We loved all the photos she sent us too!”

“Katya provided a safe, comfortable, happy play stay for our 20-month-old golden retriever. Mattie loved playing with Dewi and Mishka! Katya's calm demeanor put our girl at ease right away. You can tell that she is a dog lover who understands how to take charge while still having fun. Definitely will use her services in the future!”

About: We are lifetime pet parents and understand the need of pet owners to find a safe and caring place for their pet when they are away. We will provide a secure and caring home for your pet when you can’t be home, and we will treat your pet with respect and always be gentle and kind to ease any anxieties they may have while you are away. We live with our 11 year old Jack Russell Terrier Niko. We have a double fenced property, 2 acres in size where dogs can run and play supervised at all times. we are both retired and home all day. We’d love to speak with you about your needs and expectations and hope to provide you with peace of mind while you entrust the care of your fur-baby to us. We welcome small & medium sized dogs who are well behaved and house trained. We would need to do a test sleepover with any dog to be boarded with us to make sure they have no separation anxiety, barking or house training issues. Unfortunately we can not take certain dog breeds due to our homeowners insurance since we do not kennel any of the dogs that stay with us. We are dedicated to providing a calm and caring place for your pet in our home and on our secure property. We are open for business every day of the week. Your pet will have access to our home and can be on our living room furniture if they choose. We will let them into the smaller fenced area directly behind the home anytime they want and we will take them out to the larger 2 acre fenced property and walk or play with them often throughout the day. They will sleep inside at night. We will feed them twice a day at the same time for all dogs with food that you provide and have fresh water available to them at all times.

About: I grew up around dogs of all sizes and breeds, and have always, always loved dogs! I volunteered at the SPCA for 2 years: walking and caring for dogs in the adoption centers. I work at home, so I have ultimate flexibility during work weeks and weekends. I am happy to take dogs on as many walks/runs/breaks as needed. I am in good shape, and I can handle larger and more energetic breeds. My neighborhood is dog-friendly with plenty of streets and dirt trails to the lake to walk or run on. Dogs are of course allowed inside and can hang out with me all day. I have experience working with dogs with medical conditions and disabilities. Our house is currently dog-free so I have extra time to give your dog(s) extra love.

“Cooper told me he had a good day. 😊”

“Danielle is so great with our little Chi mix, Margeaux. She treats her & loves her as if she were a member of her own family. Sends photo updates daily and is flexible with dtop-off and pick-up times. My puppy always leaves her home having had lots of exercise and attention. It's so nice to be able to go to work knowing my furry little one will be happy and kept safe for the day. I highly recommend her! :)”

About: I have been doing Rover for over a year now and have helped a number of happy clients. I am active and can run higher energy, working dogs. I am based in the Sacramento area. My availability varies based on my work schedule so the best way to schedule is to message me. Your dog(s) will get plenty of attention and care while I am either sitting, walking or seeing them for a drop-in visit. I can take your dog on adventures such as hikes, trips to the dog park or on long runs if your dog needs extra exercise. While sitting, you will be assured your dog will get plenty of love, pets and opportunities to play. I look forward to the chance to of spend some quality time with your dog.

“Awesome! Leslie was great, super quick in responses and I felt very comfortable leaving Speck in her care. Would definitely use her again when I am in the area!”

About: I’ve always had pets and cared/trained from puppies to disabled elders who need medication. I even produce a local dog parade annually. Must love dogs! I have a flexible schedule making it easy to accommodate others. I have reliable transportation for getting to homes and am in excellent health so no excuse…. I live on 24 acres, some fenced. My cats are indoor/outdoor and are trained to come in at night. They are literbox trained. My dogs stay in the house when we leave and get regular vet care. At your home: caution opening doors, assure leashes attached properly, and yard secure, administer meds according to vet orders. Feed per owner directions (you have them sing for dinner, I will too), refresh water, photograph/video each encounter to share with owner at visit, clean up pet messes, sit on floor and play, make sure home is securely locked when leaving

About: As a cattle dog owner, I'd like to think I have a special set of skills for crazy babies. I have always had rescues and fosters in my home. I have been fortunate to work with foster pets from the Caribbean and Mexico as well, each of these often came with health issues. I have experience with pregnant dogs and cats as well! If you are interested in having your pet stay over, know I have two very friendly dogs. They have both experienced having guests and foster pets in the house as well. Tolerant and obedient. I have multiple rooms and baby gates for separation and quiet time. In general, I am a very active and outdoorsy person! So i am happy to take the pets out to the trails or the lake! I live on 10 quiet acres with a fenced yard. There is ample space to play outside or be kept safe and warm inside. I am fortunate to work from home. I have the ability to provide care all day and night for your pet! I walk each morning and evening and have the option to take your pet out for a walk or a play on the property in both fenced and unfenced areas. I have an older dog who is very arthritic so I am used to caring for the elderly animals as well. Pets in my home have their own room if needed. I have plenty of space for crates. I have a large gated deck and live on 10 acres on a quiet road. My own pets walk daily with me along my road which works well for easy elder dog walks as it is shady even in the summer. It also can provide great training ground as there is little traffic. For the high energy babies, we can play fetch or take to the trails nearby. I have always had rescue pitties so I am comfortable with big cuddly babies. I adopted a cattle dog pup who had clinical anxiety which has taught me how to care for highly intelligent, high energy dogs as well. Treats, love, and confidence makes for a happy dog!

About: I've taken care of all different breeds of dogs my entire life. As well as personalities. Whether they're shedders, have an anxious attachment, are seniors, babies, aggressive/reactive dogs.. they all need love. And I'm here to help! I'm 100% available for your needs. I've been helping with animals my entire life, but I am new to the area. So I am fully available and looking for new opportunities! I worked 5 years for a family walking their dog an hour and a half every morning. They traveled during the summers and he would stay at my place and go on a ton of adventures with me! Whether it was beach trips, hikes, dog parks, sleepovers with friends and family.. he always tagged along! I’m happy to find a similar situation in Northern California. I am available full-time! I'm adaptable and am happy to accommodate to your needs. I know animal parents also have their preferences when it comes to how their babies are treated, so I'm here to do whatever it takes to make everyone comfortable.
