Doggy Day Care in Selkirk

“Cheryle is great! She sent pictures during the day which made us feel very comfortable that our dog was nice and relaxed and enjoys being with Cheryle and her dog. Her house is set up very nice and the backyard too. I would highly recommend Cheryle!”

“We wanted our pup to get more socializing during the day while we are at work and Maegan turned out to be perfect. She is very responsive, flexible with our drop off and pick up times, and very trustworthy. Her and her family are also very kind and sweet and they make a great home for our pup to enjoy during the day. They have a dog of their own and she watches other dogs on occasion as well and everyone gets along great because of Maegan. We can’t thank her enough for how she cares for our dog.”

“Emily was so professional and loving with our best buddy Ebbet. He can be shy and nervous, and Emily was incredibly patient and thoughtful giving Ebbet time and space to acclimate to a new person. She went above and beyond and we are so grateful. Ebbet loved her, and he is choosy with his love 💗”

About: Freedom is my actual birth name (preferred btw) So here at Freedom Cares 🫶🏼 I believe all animals have their own unique level of care needs. I grew up with a variety of furry friends from a very young age. I remember being 3 and hiding in my Nanas room with Kittens and snuggling them trying to feed them with my (dolls play baby bottle) and. My experience with animals Includes dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, donkeys, ducks, turtles, cows, fish and more. Animals are always drawn to my calming energy, regardless of where I am. Farm, fair, friends house, walks, etc. I Firmly believe my Biological mom named me Freedom for a reason. I am a private caregiver to those with disabilities. Therefore my schedule is quite flexible. I can do drop inns, boarding, overnights, walks and more. Some of my clients even enjoy pet therapy. As long as the pet owner is up to that. 😊 As a kid I had many animals and experience with farm life. Including 4H training for dogs. I most recently have experience at a dog daycare. Where we practiced techniques from The Dog Guru. More importantly each animal/client/prospect is different. Therefore, I will follow the clients/animals routine. Whether the animals need long walks and extra attention. Or just a quick drop in and some fresh water. Or extra lovings while their owner is away. Your animal/animals will surely be taken care of.

“My dog had a great time on a last minute daycare visit with Logan, and was happy and tired coming home. Logan was extremely flexible and friendly and had a good setup for dogs to free roam in and out of the house into a fenced backyard. Will absolutely book again!”

“Serhii and Olesia were amazing hosts! One of my doggies is a bit more anxious and they handle him without any issues. They returned so happy that I felt that they would have loved to stay longer with them. Thank you again Serhii and Olesia <3”

“Our Marcie came home nice and tired, and didn't seem stressed at all. Mikayla has other pets that are friendly and sociable, so we are of course happy to have our dog have the opportunity to play and socialize with them.”

Both dogs are friendly and love making new friends. Our dogs are not crated, but they are house-trained. Our 2 cats and 2 dogs get along well.

About: I’ve only been dog sitting for a few years but I make sure to treat them well. I’ve been teaching this stubborn 2 years old dog new commands and he’s learning well, I can try to train your dog new commands too. I still have school to go to but in the afternoon noons I’m free most of the time like starting at 3 pm. Taking walks on my own is a regular thing I do so taking your dog is no problem. I don’t have a crate at my home so if you’re fine with your dog not being in a crate then great. Dogs are allow to roam around whenever they like.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly understand their needs! I’ve trained my personal service animal, fostered pups in need, and already dog-sit for wonderful owners in the North Park community. Plus, I work from home, so your dog will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Whether they need playtime, training reinforcement, or just a cozy cuddle, I’ll make sure they feel right at home! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! Since I work from home full-time, your pup will have plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for weekend boarding and can accommodate weekday care after 12 PM—unless we’ve planned and confirmed a schedule that works best for your dog’s specific needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel loved and comfortable! 🐾 Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a loving, structured environment tailored to their needs. My dog, Luca, is a great companion and will help keep your pup company. We have a routine of three walks a day, ensuring plenty of exercise and outdoor time. I also provide mental enrichment activities, assist with crate training, and even reinforce sign language for dogs—a valuable skill that benefits all pups, especially as they age and may experience hearing loss. Your dog will be in great hands, getting the care, attention, and training they need to thrive! 🐾

About: Hello! My name is Catherine, and I’m passionate about caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. Growing up with Newfoundlands, I’ve developed a deep love for big dogs and have enjoyed training them in water activities. My experience extends beyond just my personal pets; I’ve worked in kennels and as a petsitter for family, friends and neighbors where I gained valuable skills in dog care and rehabilitation, particularly with dogs facing challenges like fear-based aggression. Currently, I share my home with three dogs: two energetic Boxers and a fun-loving Chihuahua/Pug mix. I appreciate the unique personalities and needs of both big and small dogs! One of my dogs is a certified therapy dog, which has brought as much joy to him as his new friends. In addition to dogs, I have a deep love for cats (although my partner is allergic, so I'd love to come over and play with yours!). I have cat-sat before and would love to take care of your kitty. I have experience caring for various animals as a farmhand, including ducks, chickens, and sheep. This diverse background has equipped me with the skills to manage different temperaments and needs in pets. I also have experience with dogs that have special needs, including my deaf dog, senior dogs, and others that have required extra patience and understanding. I believe every pet deserves the best care tailored to their individual needs. My philosophy is that whatever decision is right for your pet is also the right one for you as an owner. I regularly pet sit for family, friends, and neighbors, providing companionship, playtime, and cuddles. I’m great at managing mealtimes and administering medication, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and safe while you’re away. Whether it’s playing fetch, going for walks, or simply relaxing on the couch, I aim to create a nurturing environment that your pets will love. Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I look forward to potentially welcoming them into my home! Let’s connect and discuss how I can provide the best care for your furry (or feathered, or scaled) family member! I currently work full-time from home but with a flexible schedule. I am completely free on weekends. Due to my flexible schedule, I can be available for pet care during the day with enough advance notice (generally one week). Otherwise I am available every day before 8pm, after 5pm, and available on weekends and ESPECIALLY holidays! I will care for your pets in the manner that is the most familiar and comfortable for both you and them - this will always be a discussion prior to our first appointment. I am comfortable with crates, harnesses of all sorts (including gentle leaders), prong collars (but NOT metal chain collars!), slip leads, treat dispensing (everyone's favorite, of course!), clicker training, muzzles, electronic collars (which I am trained on and have been using for 12+ years, especially with our deaf dog), I will respect room and house boundaries (for both myself and your pet), litterbox cleaning, I will wash their bowls daily and as needed, play-based training and rewards, brushing, grooming/bathing as needed, etc.

“Amanda was fabulous!! I’m so happy we found someone relatively last minute to look after our pup while out at a padres game/dinner (we’re from out of town). We would use her again if we were locals!!”
