Doggy Day Care Normandy Village

“Kristall was so kind to take our 10 week old pup after a very last minute request. Our pup joined us only 4 days before we realized we needed a sitter for about 5 hours. And I forgot to make a request until the night before. Kristall was friendly, sweet, and immediately good with our pup. She obviously loves dogs. When we picked up our pup, he was happy and looking good. He enjoyed the yard and the love. Kristall was flexible with our a bit uncertain return time, too. I recommend Kristall highly and plan to request her again.”

“Beverly was amazing. She responded straightaway to take my girl so we could go to Cumberland Island for the day. Tinker came home happy and tired. Thanks Beverly! This was my first time using Rover and it was amazing.”

“They are amazing! Very flexible with the schedule and they take very good care of my puppy! Even giving a bath here and there and working with him on learning how to behave! She is my babysitter”

Kristina B.

“Carole is overall a wonderful person. Loved interacting with her and she was also great with our puppy. My puppy is not an angel all the time since she is still learning, but Carole had great patience and understanding with her. Played with her plenty of time that she came home exhausted and slept past her dinner time. I highly recommend her if you had any doubts and your cherished baby will be in great hands.”

Samantha G.

“Hutch had a great time and Gwendolyn was great in sending pics and updates !”

Terri I.

“My fur baby is very clingy and I was initially hesitant after a negative experience at a local boarding business. However, she adapted well to Chyna and I plan to use her services in the future.”

Karen B.

“I was looking for day care very last minute and Sheena was so kind to be available for us. My pup had a great experience and brought a nice doggy bag home. Highly recommend!!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, and taken care of them in full for my family, friends and neighbors. I love four legged furry friends; giving them walks, playing with them and making them feel comfortable. I have always adopted rescue dogs so have a good sense of how to take care of apprehensive dogs, as well as hyperactive or dogs that need more attention and a patient trainer. I have amateur experience training dogs and have learned tips from my sister who is an experienced dog trainer and dog walker. I have chickens at home and have cared for furry, scaled and feathered friends in the past, I love them all. I am patient and loving when it comes to taking care of animals and hope you will consider me to take care of your best friend(s)! My partner and I have recently lost our best furry friend and I would love a reason to get outside more often with my favorite animal (dogs!) or any animal at all. I currently work full time but am off on Sundays/Mondays as well as evenings. My job allows me to leave midday as needed. If I can plan ahead with a care schedule, I have no issue fitting walks/care as needed. I personally have always had free range dogs, but have experience with free ranging as well as crated dogs. I am comfortable working with contained pets as well; chickens, other birds, snakes, tarantulas etc.

About: Hi! My name is Jasmine, and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was surrounded by both large dogs and cats, which helped me become comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Over the years, I’ve also cared for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors, providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I am a responsible, dependable, and compassionate caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. My experience growing up with big dogs taught me how to confidently handle larger breeds, while living with and caring for cats has helped me understand the importance of patience and respecting each pet’s unique personality. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet, along with regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾💕 As I work toward my goal of becoming a nail technician, I have the flexibility to provide attentive and dependable pet care. I’ve always loved animals, and pet sitting is a rewarding way for me to spend my time while building my career. I make it a priority to keep pets on their regular routines and give them plenty of attention, companionship, and care. I provide loving, reliable care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home, hosting them overnight in my home, stopping by for drop-in visits, or taking them on walks, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. For boarding and overnight stays in my home, pets will have a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. My apartment community includes a dog park and a dog washing station, which are great amenities for active dogs. I also have two cats, so any pets staying with me should be comfortable around cats. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, medications (if needed), and lots of affection. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the care they deserve. I treat every pet like family and strive to make their time with me a positive experience.

“We are so unbelievably grateful for Stephanie. This morning we were dropping our dog off at another persons house for a rover stay over, and it was not a good fit. We had limited time to find a new sitter as we had a wedding to get to. Stephanie responded immediately and took excellent care of our sweet pup. Truly so grateful for her ❤️ thank you for making us feel so comfortable.”

About: What sets me apart from many sitters is my lifelong experience with animals and my ability to genuinely connect with them quickly — especially pets who may be anxious, shy, older, highly attached to their owners, or simply used to lots of companionship and attention. Over the years, I’ve helped care for foster litters of puppies and kittens requiring around-the-clock feeding, monitoring, and weight tracking alongside my best friend, who is a veterinarian. I also have veterinary technician and shelter experience, along with hands-on experience caring for senior pets, administering medications, reinforcing basic puppy training, and supporting animals with special routines, anxieties, or medical needs. I’m currently working with one of my own dogs in service dog training, and I’m also a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) who previously worked with pre-K children with autism using Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. Both experiences have strengthened my understanding of behavioral reinforcement, nonverbal communication, patience, routine, trust-building, and adapting to different personalities and emotional needs. In many ways, both children and animals communicate heavily through energy, body language, consistency, and feeling emotionally safe, and I’ve found those skills help me connect especially well with animals of all temperaments. I’m also an avid walker and love spending time outdoors, taking long walks through the beautiful Riverside and Avondale neighborhoods, local parks, and nearby green spaces — especially when the weather cools down a bit. For more active dogs, I genuinely enjoy playtime, walks, fetch, and engagement throughout the day, while calmer pets usually find me just as happy to provide cuddles, companionship, and a peaceful environment. Because I operate my design company remotely and on my own schedule, I’m often able to spend extended time in the home providing companionship, supervision, structure, affection, and a calming presence throughout the day and overnight — not just quick drop-ins. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and creating an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away. Because I own and operate my own boutique design firm, my schedule is highly flexible and allows me to work remotely from anywhere with a reliable internet connection. I’m also involved in tween mentorship and creative consulting, both of which I manage on my own schedule, making it easy for me to prioritize the needs and routines of the pets in my care. I’m naturally both an early riser and a night owl, so I’m available for early morning feedings and walks, late-night potty breaks, overnight companionship, medication schedules, and pets who simply feel more secure having someone nearby throughout the day and evening. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy the companionship, structure, and calm presence animals bring. Whether I’m working quietly from my laptop while keeping your pet company, taking breaks for walks and playtime, or providing attentive overnight care, I’m able to give pets far more presence and consistency than many traditional sitters with rigid work schedules. Safety, trust, and creating a calm environment are extremely important to me, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I have two friendly small dogs and cats of my own, so pets staying in my home should be comfortable around other animals and able to coexist peacefully. Our pets are very much part of the family and are welcome on furniture and beds, so I aim to create a relaxed, loving, home-like environment rather than a kennel atmosphere. I understand that every pet has different comfort levels, routines, and boundaries, and I take introductions, feeding, supervision, and transitions seriously to help everyone feel safe and comfortable. If a pet prefers to be crated or separated at times, I’m happy to accommodate those needs as well. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m highly respectful of routines, security, cleanliness, and household expectations. As a longtime homeowner and business owner myself, I understand the level of trust involved when someone gives access to both their beloved pets and their home. I’m conscientious about alarms, locked doors, medications, feeding schedules, potty routines, cleanliness, and communication. Because I work remotely from home in the Avondale area, I’m also able to provide a high level of flexibility, supervision, companionship, and overnight presence for pets who are used to having someone nearby throughout the day.

About: I’ve been a lover of dogs & cats since I was a kid. Animals always gravitate towards me. I’ve had pets since I was about 15 years old. I have nothing but time to give to all pets. Your baby will get all the cuddles & butt scratches they can handle! I’m not working at the moment so I have all the time in the world to give to your furry babies! I’m able to do drop in visits/walks at your home. I can also do boarding at my home. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for your baby to run around & play. The house is big enough to keep all the babies separate just in case there are any temperament issues.

“Makenzie was willing to work with me on my short notice and responded promptly. She is a perfect babysitter and I wound recommend her services to anyone who wants a loving home for their fur baby.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all varieties for as long as I can remember . My heart will always have a special love for the big dogs I will say. I currently have a friendly 3 year old Shepard mix at home with me, so please keep that in mind when booking with me. He does love to play and your dogs will enjoy running around the fully fenced in back yard with him. I do have experience with puppy training as well. One of my favorite things is being able to teach a dog a new trick . I’ve got a huge heart for animals and would love to help give someone the peace of mind that their fur babies are being well taken care of while out of town . I currently work from home M-F so it makes boarding super easy for me logistic wise. I am available for all other services I would need to travel for after 4pm. Weekends I have free availability . I have a fully fenced in yard for the pups to all run around in and burn off energy. I do crate my animals when I’m leaving my house for extended periods of time to avoid accidents. I have an extra medium size crate already at my house, anything larger I would need yours for the duration of stay. If your dog is leash trained I live in a good neighborhood and enjoy taking mine on at least one daily walk . Play time is essential in my house and if your dog is simply a cuddle bug that’s always top tier in my book.

About: Hi! I'm Kelsey! I have had dogs all my life and have worked with them in all types of situations. I have volunteered with rescue groups, helped at kennels, and I worked at Pet Paradise Resort for two years. I'm an actress and am also a dog trainer. I have trained dogs to be in stage productions! I have experience with senior dogs and administering all types of medications (including insulin shots). I also used to have a dog with epilepsy so I am familiar with all types of situations. I also have a great eye for analyzing dog behavior and can usually tell immediately if there is something wrong with them. I once saved a dogs life at Pet Paradise by recognizing there was something wrong with her and got her to the vet ASAP! Please don't hesitate to let me spoil your baby/babies!
