Doggy Day Care in Richland

“I was visiting from out of state and only had a couple of days of notice but they were able to help. My 100lb Labrador was happier about going each day. I received regular photo and video updates of DJ socializing with other dogs and children. It appeared she had plenty to do and was definitely sleepy after. The whole family is very nice. Thank you!”

“Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our dog Obi. She was easy to communicate with and gave good feedback on how Obi was doing. She was also flexible with the drop off and pick up times. Obi loved being over there and had a wonderful time playing in her fenced yard with her dogs. I would strongly recommend Amanda and will definitely request her again.”

About: I’ve had several pets and worked with livestock over the years. Pepper was our family pet, a Border Collie I trained as a puppy. I cared for Murdoc, a 50lb German Shepherd mix, into his senior years. In 2017, I rescued Circe, a pint-sized black cat, and in 2021, Joey, my sweet senior beagle boy. I feel like I’ve done it all: thorns in the paw, administering meds, emergencies, play time, treat time, training, long walks, car rides, cleaning messes, and more! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I do venture out sometimes, but keep it to four hours maximum. I'm more of a night owl, so I prefer drop-offs after 10am and can accommodate pickups as late as 1:30am. If you need to arrange a drop-off earlier than 10am, need to book without two weeks notice, or I’m unavailable at the start or end of your booking, feel free to message me—I'm happy to see if we can work something out. I only book one dog at a time through Rover. However, I may also be caring for additional dogs through my LLC. If you're booking with me for the first time on Rover, please note that there may be other dogs in my home, other than my own, during your pet’s stay. These dogs are not new to my home—they’re regulars who have been properly vetted and are low- to medium-energy. Your pet is my priority ✨ I am attentive to details, so when a new furry friend comes over, I keep a close watch on how they're adjusting to their new temporary environment. I'm excellent at picking up on even the smallest signs they give off and base my care accordingly to ensure they're feeling comfy right from the start. I have a dog and cat at home and will care for your pet as though it were part of the fam! I have advanced education in communication, so I strive to be transparent about what is going on with your pet, and I expect the same from you before booking. Every pet has quirks, whether your pup needs lots of cuddles or some space to chill, I make it my mission to ensure your pup feels safe, happy, and like they're on vacation during their stay!

About: I had a black lab for eight wonderful years, caring for her and ensuring her happiness until she passed away a couple of years ago. Since then, I’ve gained experience walking and pet-sitting for friends' pets, providing them with love, attention, and exercise. As a flight student at WMU graduating this fall, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of free time. Balancing my studies and part-time work allows me to dedicate my days to pet care. I’m eager to help others by walking their dogs or pet-sitting, ensuring pets receive the attention and exercise they need while I enjoy spending time with them. I live in an apartment and I don’t own any pets . I’m more than happy to stay at the client’s home or make frequent visits to care for their pets, depending on their preferences. I’ve taken care of friends' pets at their homes without any issues, ensuring they receive the attention and love they need. I pride myself on being trustworthy and responsible, and I'm eager to help with all aspects of dog care.

“Stephanie is great! My dog can be a little shy in new situations, but she was so excited to get dropped off each day and came home tired and happy.”

“Kathy accomodated a short notice request with a very early drop off time. Our pup was tired when she got home which tells us she was busy and had fun. We will definitely return to Kathy!”

Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or concern you may have about myself. I am working remotely and able to fit any fur baby into my flexible schedule.

“My separation anxiety-prone husky was in wonderful hands with Heidi and her family. She sent me tons of photos of my baby snuggling on the couch, playing with her beagles, and getting snuggles from the kids. My pup went to her two days in a row and seemed totally content to be dropped off the next day. I couldn't ask for anything more!”

Allyson C.

“Sarah was so great with our boy. He came home exhausted and happy! She was so helpful when we were looking for a last minute sitter and sent updates while we were gone. We would definitely book with her again!”

Macy P.

“Was a last minute booking and she was able to watch Mason for us and took great care of him. Would definitely use her again!”

About: I've cared for all breeds and sizes of cats, dogs and various other creatures in my life since I was a child. I am trauma informed, science backed, and consent based in everything I do. I am force free/fear free. I don’t use any aversives with any animal. I follow the most up to date animal science and firmly believe that through positive reinforcement and giving animals agency to opt in or out of most situations is the best way to be in relationship with them. I have been caring for animals professionally since 2019, and am very passionate about animal care and am excited to get to know you and your fur babes! My first love was a husky mix named Dutchess. I was a rough and tumble three-year-old and she looked like a furry loaf of bread with rolled up newspapers for legs, who never let me out of her sight until the day she crossed over the rainbow bridge. And thus began my love affair with pretty much all animals. Each pet has their own unique personality and style. I adapt to your pet's needs and wants. If they want cuddles, if they want space, if they want to run around in the back yard and play catch or tug-o-war then that is what we are going to do! My aim is to make them and you, happy with the stellar care they are being given. Animals have always been an integral part of my life, and I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to love and care for them and provide for my own family as well. <3 Animal care and companionship is my life. I work with animals multiple times a day everyday of the week to ensure they get all the enrichment, exercise, attention, and love they want and need. Trusting me with your home and pets is a big deal. Rest assured I will communicate regularly with pictures, videos and text updates throughout our stay together so you can feel at ease with the care of your fur babies.

About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by all types of animals. Growing up with my cats and dogs, i’ve learned the ways that a pet can provide you with more love and friendship than some people ever could. I would do anything for mine the way that i would for someone else’s bundle of joy. i love nurturing animals in any way that they need to see them happy. i’m currently working 3 days a week at Bronson Hospital. my schedule varies and any day that i am not scheduled to work, i will be free to help in any way i can! i can easily feed, water, crate, provide medications if needed and anything else your fur baby requires. While i do not have the space to bring animals to my home, i can easily make the needed trips to take care of any pets in your home and treat it with the same care of my own.

“She took great care of Beasley on short notice, and was flexible to what we needed! Beasley had a great day and came home tired after getting all her energy out.”
