Doggy Day Care North

“Amazing! Ivy was fantastic!! Needed a last-minute sitter and couldn't have lucked out better. Got the most adorable pics and updates. Will book again!!”

“Debra is a wonderful sitter! She is flexible with times and days of drop-offs and she is a great communicator. Theo loves going over there to play with his friends, play fetch, and run around in her yard!”

“Dawn is a great dog sitter. She took lots of photos, and her dog Rice was a wonderful host too! She took care of Ruby and Toasty for the day in her home as a "trial run" to make sure all 3 dogs were compatible so we will definitely be using her in the future for extended stays. Highly recommend.”

About: Hello! I graduated from NC State and currently work in technology so I'm frequently working from home and can be there for your bff. I've been taking care of dogs (and cats) for 10+ years and 10/10 humans rate me as a good sitter. I currently don't have a dog or any pets at all as my work frequently requires me to travel so I'll be using this opportunity to fill that void. I like to stay active and am a frequent visitor of our local parks and green ways, I love to travel and see new places and curling up on the couch with a good cup of tea. I would be so delighted to hang out with your loved one while you are away!

“Paige was extremely caring and kind to our doggo Buttercup. She took extra care to make sure she felt safe in her home and get her walks, treats, and even cuddle time. Paige regularly updated us on the status of Buttercup and took the cutest pictures, too! Highly recommend Paige for your dog-sitting needs!!”

“Lauren was so awesome with our 5 month old pup!! It was our first time putting her in doggy day care so as first time dog parents we were nervous but our dog took right to her and seemed to have the time of her life running around the backyard and playing with the other dogs. We felt comfortable leaving her there and Lauren was awesome with communication from start to finish and sent us pictures and updates during the day. Highly recommend Lauren!!”

Becca J.

“What a great experience with Martine and her husband. They obviously made Bryce feel welcomed in their home … as by the second day he went straight to her front door and didn’t look back while I was leaving. Also want to “shout out” her willingness to be a bit flexible with the schedule … (I was meeting a friend locally and wanted to be able to enjoy Raleigh for dinner (which was awesome at The Plate). This pet sitting experience enhanced my visit to Raleigh !!!”

Kathy M.

“Olga has taken wonderful care of Maple!”

Shelby S.

“Teddy had a great time at Melissa’s! He came home very tired and she sent lots of videos and pix of Teddy running around with her dogs in the fenced in backyard. I would definitely take Teddy back to them in the future.”

Kristina B.

“Isabella and her family took great care of our pup while we were out of town. She kept us up to date on daily activities with pictures and videos. I highly recommend Isabella and her pet services.”

Christian S.

“Sloane is the BEST!! Her updates are detailed with lots of photos, and as an anxious dog mom, I really appreciate that! Cooper has such a great time with her and always comes home tired from all the fun. 10/10, cannot recommend more!”

Palak P.

“It was the first time we left our dog, so were a little worried but Kim kept us posted about Teddy's stay there. She sent us pictures, our dog looked very happy. We will strongly recommend her and will use her service again.”

Maria I.

“Lily came in clutch last minute as I was planning my proposal! Thank you for watching my babies! 10/10 recommend.”

Najai P.

“Shelly did a great job caring for June Bug, especially when we needed someone to care for her last minute. Very responsive when we reached out! Would definitely book with her again!”

About: I have had dogs, cats and other small animals most of my life. I take care of my friends and family pets for extended amounts of time. I am able to give oral medication, injections and lots of belly rubs! I have fostered many dogs and that is how I adopted my most recent dog Lucy. 🐶 I am spending much of my time home. Your pup will get lots of love and attention from me and my girl Lucy throughout the day. I do not have a fenced yard. I live in the woods next to a nature preserve, so there are no other dogs nearby to chase. I NEVER take a dog off leash in my yard!!! I have a very large deck with railings that will prevent a dog from escaping. If the weather is nice, the dogs will sometimes hang out on the deck. There is a large area in the basement to play fetch and horseplay. My dog is crate trained and will stay in her crate when I leave the home. I prefer to have all dogs in a crate when I am not home to prevent an accidental peeing or pooping accident. The dogs typically sleep on the floor on a dog bed in my bedroom at night or in a crate, if that is what you prefer.

About: I have grown up with dogs (all English springer spaniels) and love them so much! They hold a special place in my heart. Due to my season of life, I’m not quiet ready to own one myself but would love to help you take the best care of yours. I have dog-sat many times over the years, am very disciplined and organized and will always play with your pup! I am recently a stay at home mom so have great flexibility through the week! Previously worked full time as an Occupational Therapist in a hospital setting. I have a fenced in back yard and walkable neighborhood with a nearby park and accessible sidewalks. I will be home during the pets visit.

“Andrew was fantastic with my anxious pup! He provided updates and made my dog feel right at home. Highly recommend.”

Courtney C.

“This was our first time using Arden, and we could tell right away that she’s wonderful with dogs — especially with Rooney! We were well informed with updates and photos throughout the day, and it was clear Rooney was happy, safe, and well cared for. Arden took her on walks and let her relax on the gated back porch, which she loved. We’ll definitely book with Arden again!”

About: I have been a pet parent for 11 years and I’m looking to find some small, furry playmates for my sweet golden retriever to hang out with during the day. I’m a service connected Veteran and I’m home most of the time. I would be home with your dog the whole time of course. I’m very attentive and cautious and being a dog mom myself I understand how scary it can be to leave your dog with someone else. I am a bit of a helicopter parent with my boy and will be with your baby as well. If I’m available, I’m happy to help. If not I will let you know. I only take drop ins the day of or a day in advance due to my health. I have a large living space with multiple rooms. I am able to keep the dogs in my main living space easily so they can be observed the whole time they are with me. They must be good on the leash for potty breaks because my yard isn’t fenced but I’m very cautious when walking my boy and can take your dog out separately so they have my full attention.

About: We’re an active, dog-loving couple who miss having a furry friend around - so we put all that energy into the pups we host. We raised a golden retriever for over 12 years, through eight different homes, which taught us how to stay flexible and make any space feel like home for a dog. We’ve also cared for the fur-babies of our friends and family over the years, so medium and large breeds are totally our comfort zone. Carleigh works from home every day, and John is home four days a week, meaning your dog gets tons of attention, playtime, and company. We’re not ready for a new pup of our own yet, but we love having short-term four-legged guests to spoil. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because one of us is almost always home, so your dog will get tons of attention, supervision, and company throughout each day. We love taking breaks to go on walks, play outside, or just hang out with a furry friend while we work. Since we’re already active and outside often, adding a dog to our routine is fun and effortless. We treat every dog like a temporary member of the family. Our home is clean, calm, and set up to be dog-friendly, especially for medium and large breeds. We pay close attention to routines, instructions, and any quirks or preferences your dog has. We’re big on communication - you’ll get updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. Whether it’s play time, relaxing, or sticking to their normal schedule, we make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for from the moment they arrive.
