Doggy Day Care in North Sarasota

“SO MANY GOOD THINGS I COULD SAY!!! My boyfriend and I look at our two dogs, Hope (almost 2) and Zeus (3 months), like they are children. Our girl Hope can be an escape artist at times and is very active, so we have a collar for her with gps and tracking of her steps. With that being said, in the past I have not re-used some people off rover because Hope simply would not move the entire time!!! At Donnas, Hope and Zeus both ran and ran (after all I could tell). And had an absolute blast. Her yard is fenced in so no dog could get out, even our little lunatics. She knows so much about dogs I have never felt so confident with leaving our babies with someone before. Hope and Zeus will be back!! Truly a gem!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. As both a lifelong animal lover and a parent, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a safe, loving environment. I’m experienced with puppies who need extra training and guidance, as well as senior pets who may require a gentler approach and special care. I take the time to follow each pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of exercise and affection, and keep pet parents updated so they feel at ease while away. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays until 12:00 PM, and on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Please reach out if you have any questions! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I make sure they’re comfortable, follow their usual routines, and always have fresh food and water. I also give them daily exercise and lots of affection.

“Thank you Audrey and Carson!! I know Mia had the best day (she’s currently out cold on the couch) It was a super last minute reservation and they were more than accommodating and answered very quickly. Thank you too!”

“Natasha did amazing with my dog Jax! She has a huge fenced in yard and a friendly dog Ladybird that Jax was able to play with. She was flexible with pickup / drop off times, responsive with communication, and so caring with Jax. I never once worried about him while he was in her care. Natasha is also very friendly. Will definitely bring Jax to her house whenever I need day care or boarding in the future! Highly recommend :)”

“I cannot say enough about my experience with Beth and her husband and their home, little dog and cats. I felt so at ease around their kindness. The best part is that my dog was more vibrant and playful after two days with them. They were keen to follow instructions and just be a loving presence for Zushi. That’s what we needed most! I will be booking with them again. And highly recommend them.”

“We had the best experience using Thelma and Gary to care for our two furry children. While visiting FL for 6 weeks, we left them for daycare about a dozen times. Thelma was very attentive to our dog's needs. We always left for the day feeling confident that they were safe and well cared for. The house is immaculate. There is a nice outdoor space for the dogs. In addition to walks, she will often take them to the park for more exercise. My girls were happy and tired at the end of the day. I highly recommend Thelma & Gary, and plan to use them again when I return for my next FL visit.”
