Doggy Day Care Shannondale

“Barbara was polite, thoughtful, and kind. She texted to let us know how he was doing about halfway through the appointment, and she shared a cute picture. I would definitely book with her again and certainly recommend her!”

“Abby and her husband were great hosts! Awesome communication and everything was made easy and smooth for a last minute request. Their dogs Maple Syrup and Moose were such good puppy hosts and played well with our dog. We received plentiful videos and pictures of the fun!”

About: Hi, I’m Tess! I live in Charles Town, WV with my two-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Louie, and two cats, Tatiana and Rudy — so your pet is walking into a home that already loves animals. I take a slow, easy approach to dog care. I let dogs sniff, wander, and just be themselves, whether we’re doing a neighborhood walk, a quick potty break, or a longer trail outing. Every walk is just two dogs at most, so your pup gets real time and attention. I always send photo updates along the way so you can see how they’re doing. I welcome dogs of all sizes who are friendly with other dogs, cats, and people. For boarding, I have a large fenced backyard and keep things small and relaxed — more like a home than a kennel. I also offer occasional house sitting for dogs who are happiest in their own space. I’d love to meet your pup! Feel free to reach out to check availability or set up a meet-and-greet. Fridays are my day off, so walks are unhurried and get my full attention. For boarding, I'm home all weekend, so any dog staying with me has someone around rather than sitting alone in an empty house. Dogs staying with me have access to a large fenced backyard and are never left alone outside. Inside, I keep a calm, low-stimulation environment. My Cavalier Louie lives here full time, so any boarding dog will be introduced to him gradually and supervised until I'm confident they're comfortable together. I do a meet and greet with Louie before confirming any boarding stay. For house sitting, I follow the owner's routine as closely as possible so the dog's environment feels as normal as it can while they're away. Photo updates are sent throughout any service.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can't imagine life without them. I currently have two dogs and three cats, and I've been caring for pets for as long as I can remember. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy while always being supervised. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, loved, and secure while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply relaxing, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of one-on-one attention, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I can accommodate your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you're away. Whether it's a weekend stay, daytime care, or drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet gets the love and attention they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I have a large, fully fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor play, along with two friendly dogs and three cats who are accustomed to being around other animals. Every pet is introduced carefully, and if your pet is more comfortable having their own space, I'm happy to keep them separated. I'll follow your pet's feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any special requests exactly as you provide them. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, happy, and treated like family. I know how hard it is to leave your pet, so I make it a priority to send updates, photos, and videos so you always know how they're doing.

“Sarah was an excellent sitter. She watched Ranger on short notice and was flexible on the drop off and pick up time. Her dog Moana was a sweet friend for Ranger.”

About: I have a deep passion for animals and a keen eye for understanding their non-verbal cues. By focusing on the small details and reading their body language, I ensure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and stress-free. Im a stay at home mom. I take my aon to school at 7:20, i would be available directly after that until 1:30 or 2 depending on where you live. Then Im available from 3-7. Every morning I feel my dogs and then walk them around our property. Then, I feed the kitty who is usually meowing loudly at me. Then, I scoop her box. She likes it if I scoop her box several times a day. The dogs are fed twice a day, and walked several times. My Dad or I will walk our younger dog Molly around the neighborhood or on the Appalachian trail. Dinner for the dogs is at 7pm and "last pee" is before bedtime (usually 10).

“Charity was super responsive and sent pictures of Jax right away! My schedule was a bit in flux and Charity was very understanding and willing to work with me. Jax came home happy and tuckered out from a day of playing!”

About: Ive grown up around animals my entire life. Since i can remember my family has had a pet dog. We have also had two cats since i was about 10 years old. . I love dogs and cats so much and i would take great care of yours. Im a college student looking to make a little extra money this summer so if you are too busy or just need a little bit of help im your guy!! I currently have a part-time job but im thinking of quitting that job, so i will have tons of free time to take care of any pets. I have a fenced in yard with two very playful pups. There is also tons of toys scattered throughout the house for the pups to play with. Dogs are allowed on all couches and beds. I also have two cats who are nice but also just mind their own business.

About: Through my own dog owning I’ve learned how to keep the peace between many animals. My family loves to bring all our dogs together so my home facilitates pet care. I care for my pets daily and your pet will join our routine and receive care through their entire stay. Interactive activities provided. Sun-Thr available. Fri-Sun case by case basis. I have three dogs, one elderly small dog and two energetic very friendly medium sized dogs. The small one is kept separate and has scheduled potty times. The two others roam free and have scheduled feeding times and activities that your pet can join! My home has a doggy door so outside will be accessible at all times, I have a fenced in yard. If not potty trained, pet will follow my elderly dogs potty routine. Reactive dogs will be kept separate. Please inform of all your pets needs and habits.

About: I've cared for dogs for 12 years now. I've had 3 dogs of my own, with plenty of time walking, watching, and loving other dogs of all shapes and sizes. Book with me today to give your fur baby a fun-filled experience! I am available on weekdays for walls or drop-in visits during your work day. This can be a recurring schedule or just whenever needed! Last minute requests welcome but may not always be honored. I have experience with dogs of all temperaments. I understand that every dog (just like us) is different and requires specialized care. No cats, please. Severe allergies.

“Always willing to help, and my dog always comes back happy and well played and healthy. I feel at peace knowing my dog is with her when I am at work.”

“Gabby was an awesome Dog Sitter. I could tell from the moment she met my dogs that she was going to be a great sitter. She sent me pictures throughout their day to keep me updated. Would definitely recommend.”

About: Hi! I’m a work-from-home mom of three amazing boys, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals wasn’t just a hobby — it was a way of life. I’ve owned pets my entire life and have also fostered many dogs over the years, so my boys have grown up learning how to properly handle, respect, and love animals. We recently lost our sweet dog last year and are taking a little break from owning one, but our home feels happiest with paws around. Dog sitting allows us to share that love while giving your pup the attention and care they deserve. Because I work from home full time, your dog will rarely be alone and will get plenty of supervision, affection, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large single-family home with lots of space to relax. There’s a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, as well as a spacious front yard — but please know your dog will never be outside unsupervised. In our home, dogs are family. They’re welcome on the couch and even in the bed for snuggles at night if that’s what they’re used to. My boys love giving extra attention, playtime, and belly rubs — always guided by what your dog is comfortable with. Our family truly adores and respects animals, and we will care for your dog as if they were our own — with patience, structure, affection, and lots of love. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home full time. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and regular potty breaks as often as needed. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. We go on at least one walk every day, and I’m happy to adjust the length or pace depending on your dog’s age and energy level. In addition to walks, I incorporate outdoor time, playtime, and plenty of affection into the day. Because I’m already on a steady home schedule, it’s easy for me to maintain feeding times, medication schedules, and any specific routines your dog is used to. When pets stay in my home, they become part of our daily routine and are treated like family. Because I work from home full time, I’m able to provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Dogs have access to our large fenced backyard (always supervised) and enjoy at least one daily walk, along with playtime and snuggles. They’re welcome on the couch and even in bed if that’s what they’re used to. I stick closely to each dog’s normal feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is always the same: to provide safe, loving, reliable care so both you and your pet feel completely at ease.
