Doggy Day Care in Osceola

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years my own, my family’s, and friends’. I’ve walked and cared for rescues, puppies, seniors, and dogs with big personalities. I currently have a well-behaved rescue dog and previously had a Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix and a Siberian Husky, so I’m confident with both large and small breeds. I’ve also cared for multiple family members’ and friends’ dogs in my home or theirs, including Samoyeds, Chiweenies, Pomskys, Great Pyrenees, Pitbull mixes and more. I understand dogs deeply, and I know how to help them feel comfortable, cared for, and at home whether I’m walking them, house-sitting, or boarding them with me. I’m currently not working and have a very open schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I walk my own rescue dog Jax every day, and I genuinely enjoy being outside and staying active. I’ve been looking for meaningful ways to fill my time, and caring for animals is something I love and find personally rewarding. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and can be flexible with timing. I also plan to take a short maternity leave starting late December, but I’m fully available until then and I’ll be back soon after! Your pet’s comfort and safety come first in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard, and my own dog, Jax, is a friendly and submissive rescue who gets along well with all other dogs. My home is pet-friendly, clean, and calm, and I can easily accommodate crate-trained dogs or follow your pup’s specific routine. I also have extensive experience house-sitting and caring for dogs in their own environment, which I know can be comforting for some pets. Whether at my home or yours, I create a space where pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I love keeping dogs active and engaged! For pups who enjoy walks, I take them on fun neighborhood strolls, and if they’re staying at my home, they can enjoy playtime in my fully fenced backyard. I also tailor activities based on the dog’s personality whether it’s fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys, or just cozy snuggles on the couch. I’m all about making sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! And I’ll be sure to send you photos and updates on your pups throughout the day :)

About: Pet care has always been second nature to me! I grew up surrounded by animals—three cats, a bunny, a duck, and even fish! As an adult, I’ve cared for my own cat and two sweet pups, and though they’re no longer with me, the love I have for animals has never faded. Now, I’m a single mom of three amazing kids and share custody 50/50. On my kid-free weeks, I’d love to open my heart and home to your furry family members. I know how much pets mean to us, and I promise to treat yours with the same love and care I’d give my own. Whether it’s snuggles, walks, or playtime—I’m here for it! With my own pets, I did personalized dog training, and cared for my senior cat. As a work-from-home, self-employed single mom with 50/50 custody, my schedule is both flexible and predictable. On the weeks I don’t have my kids, I have extra space in my day—and in my heart—to care for pets. Since I work from home, I’m able to give animals consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day, whether that means walks, playtime, feedings, or just being a calm presence. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I genuinely look forward to it! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. In my apartment, pets get a calm, cozy environment with plenty of love, attention, and enrichment. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for getting energy out and enjoying fresh air. I also keep my space clean, pet-friendly, and clutter-free—no current pets other than a quiet little betta fish! When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful, reliable, and attentive to your routine. I know every pet is unique, and I’ll follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home—even when you’re not.

“Our dog was instantly at home the moment he met Kathie. We had never left him with anyone before and this turned out to be a great experience. Now we know we can go away overnight and our dog will be right at home at Kathie’s house!”

“McKenzie was awesome with Teddy!! Her backyard was perfect for dogs to play shaded from hot weather fenced in and Teddy had a buddy to hang out with her dog. Walked Teddy which is also a plus air conditioning in her house l was very happy with the care given to my dog & you can tell McKenzie is wonderful with animals!!”

“Thank you Joyce for watching Jax at the last minute. Joyce treated my dog like her own. Jax got along well with her dogs and was comfortable being there. I will definitely have Jax over again.”

About: I’ve always had animals in my life—dogs, cats, bunnies, a hamster, frogs… and one unforgettable roommate with ferrets. These days, it’s just me, my dog Tillie, and two backyard chickens, Lucy and Caroline (they run a tight ship). I work from home, so your dog will have company all day—whether they want to nap by my desk, play in the yard, or soak up some love. My partner doesn’t work from home, but when he’s here, he’s everyone’s favorite ball-thrower and treat-giver. Your pup will be treated like part of the family—chicken supervision included. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which means your dog won’t be left alone for long, if at all. They’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day—walks, playtime, snuggles, and whatever else makes them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I have a fenced yard, a sweet dog named Tillie, and two backyard chickens. We keep a calm, safe environment for everyone—your dog will be cared for like family.

“Keri & Kerry were great! I am thankful to have found such a terrific place for my dog to stay and play. I had total peace-of-mind while my Golden was in their care. (And, their Golden, Beau, was a fun, well-mannered, bonus!).”

“Harlie and her husband were amazing with Reyna! I really appreciate their communication and flexibility. I will definitely be booking them to watch Reyna again in the future!”

About: I currently own 3 Golden Retrievers with my significant other. Over the years we have also had a Lab Golden mix and an Australian Shepherd. I volunteer for a nonprofit Retriever rescue and have fostered many dogs through the organization, and for the past 8 yrs I have served as a Medical Intake Manager for the rescue. I absolutely love dogs and treat all dogs like they were my own. Our home sits on 1.25 acres which includes about 1/4 acres of fenced woods with trails, our own private wooded dog park! We also have a medium sized fenced backyard with grass. Our 3 dogs are super dog friendly and love to play. We have a 2 & 6 yrs old spayed female Goldens and a 5 yr old neutered male Golden. We live in a quiet neighborhood on a dead end street with lots of private roads for dog walks. I have a very flexible work from home job and am always here to attend to your pups needs. The dog would get lots of attention throughout the day and be able to play and have lots of fun here! We have a fenced medium sized backyard, and our back woods are fenced as well which is accessible by a separate gate. I have XL wire crates on hand and can crate if needed. Super experienced dog owner from my previous fostering experiences.

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors dogs for over 15 years while they are out of town. Not every dog is the same or needs the same amount of care. I work from home so my schedule is really flexible. I can make most requests work for your needs. Being patient with older dogs is not a problem! I have a fully fenced yard. Case by case basis for dogs taken in my home- send me a message and we can figure something out.

“Ingrid watched our pup for the day and was amazing. She was flexible with our drop off/pickup time changes and sent us updates and photos. We will definitely book with her again!”

About: **Meet and Greet Required for all New Clients** I am certified graduate from Animal Behavior College with over 15 years of experience caring and training dogs. I own Awakening Companionship, a positive reinforcement training business. Having worked professionally and personally with a variety of dog ages, breeds and personalities, I understand the importance of personalized pet care! I currently work from home as a graphic designer, except for one or two days a week subbing at SBL School District or when I see dog training clients. I do have two cats and three senior dogs, so staying close to home for their needs would align with any pet I am caring for. I have a fully fenced shady back yard, two loving kids and three sleepy senior dogs to keep your fur baby company during their stay. There is ample space to play, train and explore! Exercise and mental play are important to a happy pet, so whether at your house or mine, we make sure to pack in the fun!

“Anna was so kind, professional, and supportive. My dog has separation anxiety and she handled him extremely well. She took pictures and videos, sent updates, and gave a recap of what they did while he was either her. 10/10!! If we are in the area again we’ll definitely be choosing Anna.”

About: I have been working with/training dogs & training horses for over 20 years now. Working with animals is always something that has come natural to me & I can't imagine doing anything else. I currently have the most amazing 2 year old Belgium Malinois/GSD. (River) She has taught me so much about life this last year. She's made me a better trainer & continues to push & challenge me to learn more each day. I also have a 1 year old male Cane Corso (Mountain). I've known him since birth & River has been helping me raise him since he was 9 weeks old. He's been the perfect addition to our pack. I started training dogs when I was 13 & I realized I had a natural gift for it. My neighbors growing up would ask me to watch their dog or walk their dogs & I even trained a few of my neighbors dogs. Which is the first time I began to realize this was something I was not only good at but that I LOVED to do. I spent years studying & learning about how dogs learn, behave & interact with each other. I wanted to understand them more. (Their pack instincts & such) All of this research has helped me understand how to teach many different kinds of dogs in all kinds of areas. Training dogs is what I do for a living right now & i work with my own dogs every day and keep them well trained, behaved and ready for any dog friends to come visit. I'm available pretty much 7 days a week. (Give or take) Caring for pets is just something I've always done & I can't imagine myself doing anything else. I have a HUGE fully fenced in back yard. I have an 12 year old amazing boxer/lab who helped train & teach my Malinois how to be a good canine citizen & now they are both continuing to teach my Corso how to be a canine gentleman. So now I have some amazing dogs who do a really good job of welcoming any dog into their home and making them feel right at home.

About: I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies still learning the ropes to senior dogs who need a gentler pace and a little extra patience. I’m confident handling everything from crate training and potty schedules to administering medication and creating a calm, structured environment for older pets. Beyond experience, one of the biggest perks I offer is our 2-acre fully fenced yard. It gives dogs the freedom to run, sniff, and play safely. Whether that means high-energy zoomies or a peaceful stroll in the fresh air. It’s like their own private dog park, without the stress of crowded spaces or unpredictable environments. I keep routines consistent, provide updates during your time away, and go the extra mile to make sure each dog feels loved and understood. Whether your pup needs structure, play, comfort, or a little of everything, I’ve got it covered. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work from home, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. With 2 fenced acres, outdoor time is a daily routine, and I’m always nearby to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. In my home, pets are treated like family. I stick to their usual routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, or crate training. They have full access to our 2-acre fenced yard for safe playtime and plenty of space to explore. Inside, they’ll have cozy spots to relax, structured downtime, and lots of love and attention throughout the day.

About: I have a very genuine love for animals but extremely with dogs, my family always says “ you’re gonna be the one to have 35 dogs” I have experience with all breeds and all ages. I’m a very trustworthy and honest person when it comes down to it, as a doggy mama who is very protective to her babies I would want that, so I completely understand! I’m currently doing online school, my hopes are to become an EMT! With school being full time I will have all the time to be with your furry friend, give all the snuggles when away from you! My house has a big back yard which is fenced, so they can play safely outside! All safety hazards will be up and away, so your furry friend doesn’t get into anything that can be harmful! They will have their own spot with some toys in case they get a little anxious without you, but they can also get up on the bed if they feel more comfortable with me:)
