Doggy Day Care in Ocean Gate

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets at every stage of life. I’ve taken care of puppies who need patience, structure, and reinforcement of basic training, energetic adult dogs who thrive on activity and routine, and senior dogs who require a gentler pace, medication awareness, and extra attentiveness. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s specific needs, whether that means reinforcing potty training, maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic medications, or simply providing calm companionship. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I work fully remote from home and have flexibility in setting my schedule. This allows me to plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and any specific care needs your pet may have. I’m home throughout the day, so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches and can receive consistent attention, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Because I structure my work independently, I can easily adjust my schedule to maintain your pet’s normal routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening wind-down time. It’s important to me that pets feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for, not just supervised.

“Corrine and her family were so welcoming to Jenny! Jenny is still a puppy and needs a lot of attention and Corrine was able to provide that for our little girl. She’s great, and I highly recommend! Corrine provided us with pictures and updates throughout the day. Jenny will be seeing Corrine and her family again ?”

“Want to say I was extremely pleased with Brody's first day with Patty and her sweet gentle dog Tucker. Brody usually reacts with extreme anxiety when he encounters new people or situations. I had discussed this with Patty prior to dropping him off. As soon as she opened the door I was pretty sure that Brody would adjust easily. Patty was friendly and talked to Brody in comforting way. Tucker also greeted us with his gentle non threatening manner. Aside from a few anxious minutes when we first walked in Brody seem right at home. Patty sent me several pictures throughout the day that reassured me that I had definately made the right choice when choosing the care giver for my dog. It was clear to me that Brody was having a blast playing in the fenced in yard. Later in the day I received pictures of Brody sleeping with his head in Patty's lap. Loved this! I knew that my dog had learned to trust her within a short period of time and was perfectly content. Thank you Patty for being so kind and loving to my Puppy Boy. Very positive experience! Would love to have Patty take care of Brody again.”

About: Hello! My name is Matt, and I’m a devoted dog owner and caretaker with a passion for providing a safe and loving environment for your furry friends. I have two adorable pups of my own—an affectionate 13-year-old toy poodle (the boss) and an energetic 5-year-old doodle. They are both well-socialized and love making new friends, so your dog will feel right at home in our household! I work from home full-time, so I’m always available to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. My home is equipped with a secure, fenced backyard where your dog can run, play, and explore in a safe environment. I understand that every dog is unique and has their own needs and routines. I’m committed to ensuring that your pet feels comfortable and happy while they’re with me. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or just lounging around, I’m here to provide the care and companionship your dog deserves. I look forward to meeting your furry friends and giving them a delightful experience while you are away! I work from home full-time which allows me ample time to care for your pup, including playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. Both of my pups are very friendly and love making new friends. I have a fenced yard, and two pups to keep your pet company. Both of my dogs are crate trained. I can provide a crate if need be for sleeping accommodations

“Danielle kept our girl Trixie for the day while we hosted a bbq for 65 people. Trixie is an escape artist if someone leaves the door or gate open more than 2 seconds so we knew we needed to send her to camp for the day. Danielle sent us a video of Trixie having a blast with the other dogs. Danielle was even flexible enough to deliver Trixie back to our home (same town) as a last minute request. We will definitely use her again. Thanks for pooping my girl out, she slept like a log that night.”

About: My passion in life is spending time with dogs! Whether it’s swimming, hiking, or a simple stroll, I’m an active and caring pet owner who truly enjoys taking care of furry friends. For social pups, my dog Theo—who is fully up to date on vaccinations—would love to join for a play session. Or, if your pet prefers a solo outing, we can keep it to a relaxing walk tailored to their needs. With the season in full swing, let me take care of your dog so you can enjoy peace of mind, knowing they’re in loving hands! Caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine! As an active dog owner, I incorporate walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures into my schedule. Whether it’s a morning stroll, an afternoon hike, or an evening cuddle session, I make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I provide a secure and loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and happy. Whether on a walk or during playtime, I ensure they are always supervised, cared for, and treated like family.

About: I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and spend quality time with their pets. I also grew up caring for my own dog, Max, a Boston Terrier, which gave me a strong understanding of daily routines, exercise needs, and the importance of providing a loving, structured environment. I’m a very active person and enjoy keeping pets engaged with walks, playtime, and outdoor activity, always tailored to their energy level and needs. What sets me apart is my patience and genuine love for animals—I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a student with the summer off, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, and extended stays. I enjoy staying active and going on walks, and I’m always happy to include your dog in my daily routine for exercise and enrichment. I provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment for every pet in my care. At my home, I have a spacious yard for supervised outdoor time. Since it is not fenced, pets are always kept on a leash to ensure their safety. I also enjoy going on walks and keeping pets active with play and engagement. I have a very friendly dog who can offer companionship if your pet is comfortable around other dogs, but I always prioritize each pet’s needs and can easily keep them separate if preferred. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walking, and any special care. I aim to create a calm, familiar, and stress-free environment so your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I have always been a lover of animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guniea pigs, and hamsters. Every single animal I’ve had has been given the love they deserve. Giving them all their play time, I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around in and play fetch. If pets need their own space, I can accommodate that. If you need me to take extra time out for them I can offer that as well! I’m here to help! I am a hairstylist by trade for 27 years and love what I do, I work part time to be home more with my children. Being a hairstylist, I love helping my clients look and feel good. That being said, I figured I can help people in other ways as well and being that I love animals, why not help people with their pets by taking care of them! I take my dog on daily walks, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays but those are the days I work in the salon, but my husband takes our dog out. She also will go to my mother's house in the summer to swim with us as she absolutely loves the pool! Being that I am home most of the week, watching dogs fits well into my schedule. I will treat other people's pets as if they were my own. As long as they are potty trained, I will allow them to walk freely in my home, I have a huge fenced in yard for them to run and play. As long as the weather is beautiful out, I will take them on walks as well with my family! Myself and my family will treat your pets as if they were ours! We will show them love the entire time they are with us!

About: I have had dogs since I was a teenager and now care for my one senior dog and one mid aged dog as well . I am currently a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to give your pet all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for play and two loving older dogs of my own who love to relax, sun bathe on the deck and sleep all day. We also love to spend time at night cuddling with our guys on the couch!
