Doggy Day Care in Shell Bluff

About: I've had dogs from big to small, while growing up and as an adult, purebred as well as rescues. I don't have children, other pets or wall to wall carpeting. Your dog can loaf on my daybed and look at Crescent Lake, and there's a park right next door with a dog run. I'm also always happy to drive over oceanside. I've cared for senior dogs until the end. I love dogs and have a Pomweenie back in Michigan with my brother. I've had a fox terrier, 2 Maltese and a Golden. I'm a transplant with plenty of time, and I love in a beautiful country senior mobile home park on Crescent Lake. I love driving to the coast and meeting new people and dogs. I work part time from my laptop and I'm available all the time. I live alone on a lake, and it's dog heaven here. Also happy to go to your house. I live alone and have a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of energy and time to hang out with your dog and show them a good time. I need company,I love dogs, and they love me.

“I DON'T leave Madyson with just anybody. Nycole is such a warm, kind gentle soul. When Madyson met Nycole and Nycole's family on the initial meet and greet, Madyson took an immediate liking to Nycole, Nycole's mom Denise and Nycole's fur babies, Buddy and Angel. So leaving Madyson for a few hours with Nycole gave me a piece of mind knowing Madyson was being well taken care of. I WILL DEFINITELY BE RETURNING WITH MADYSON. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NYCOLE FOR TAKING CARE OF YOUR FUR BABIES WHEN THE NEED ARISES.”

About: I have either owned, cared for, or rescued about every domestic and farm animal there is, as well as many wild animals. I worked as a veterinarian assistant for 4+ yrs and have been a horse horse trainer since the age of 7 and professionally most of my life. I am an entrepreneur at heart and love to take care of animals, house sit. pet sit, etc for additional income. My schedule is totally flexible! I'm an entrepreneur and I make my own schedule. Let me know when you need me and I will do my best to make it work. I live on a 6 acre farm in Bunnell. I have a lot of pets and farm animals that are all good with other animals. But if I was to care for your pets at my home then I would keep them seperated from all of my animals. I a totally seperate dog boarding area with fenced play yard. If caring for your animals at your home I will be respectful of your home and care and love on your animals while you are away.

“Words can not express how grateful I am for finding Angel! I was so nervous to use this app because I have never done it before. However, I just got a 10-week-old puppy and he has been having separation anxiety so I need someone to watch him when I am at work. Not only was the meet and greet AMAZING but on Cooper's first day Angel had him SLEEPING in his crate for hours! He won't even stay in the crate 5 minutes with me, I literally cried tears of joy from all the progress pictures throughout the day. I am so excited to have Angel and her family in Cooper's life because we WILL BE a repeat customer for months to come. Seriously from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU Angel and your wonderful family. And to anyone reading this- if you need a dog sitter do NOT HESITATE to call Angel - she really will be the Angel that you need for your dog! A million stars ******************************”

About: I’ve had pets as long as I can remember, and wouldn’t have it any other way. They are the charm of any home!! I would be honored to watch your pet. I currently work from home and have three dogs myself. All very loved and get along great with other animals, including cats!! I am home all day every day and the dogs thrive when we have a guest pet. My house is set up to where I can divide the animals and they’d still be comfortable. I also have a very large 2 acre lot that is completely fenced in.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover who treats every pet like family. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, even over nights all while giving lots of love while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’d love to meet your furry friend! I currently work from home so it’s easier for me to naturally fit pet care into my daily routine. I plan my schedule so I can give pets the attention they deserve—whether that’s morning and evening walks, feeding times, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m used to building my day around making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I keep a clean, safe environment and always watch for any changes in behavior or needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I also respect their space and follow any specific instructions they provide so their pet feels secure in their familiar environment.

About: Vet assistant for 5+ years throughout NY, Aspiring vet tech taking classes online, Experienced dog walker and was an in home pet sitter prior to moving to FL. I have 4 cats. (My Chihuahua recently passed due to heart failure) I love all animals and am comfortable handling any size or shape. I prefer friendly animals (of course!) But I have dealt with aggressive dogs and succeeded in gaining their trust and building a great relationship with them. - I was the only walker, besides the business owner, who could tend to the Australian Shepherd. After figuring out how to leash him, once we got outside of his house he was a huge mush! We would picnic and exchange kisses (picture included in my photos)! As for cats... I owned an aggressive, biting cat. I don't think I could experience a worse cat. Without warning she attacked me and bit my hands, arms, and legs.. after medication with our vet she continued to live with us without incident until she passed from cancer in 2019. I love cats and would gladly check in on your cats and home while you are away: clean litter boxes, feed cats, play with them, etc. Kittens are welcome to stay at my home, but I feel adult cats would be more comfortable at their own home. I will no doubt treat your pet like my own furry family member. I can be home 99% of the time but whenever I do need to leave my husband works from home, so your pet will never be completely alone. I have a fenced in yard and live on a fairly quiet street. To ensure animals, including my own, don't get out, we typically only go through the garage so no risk of animals running out the front door.

“Great communication throughout the stay today as usual. Kizzy is happy to stay with Michelle as she enjoys playing with the kids. Michelle is very welcoming and gives me back a content and tired puppy. It eases my mind knowing she is in a safe and caring environment when she is at daycare.”

“First time Dustin was cared for by Deborah! And it was amazing! He loved being there and she enjoyed him! Thank you for taking such good care of my boy! I’ll definitely use her again.”

Jaclyn P.

“Deborah was a fantastic sitter for our little pup. She had great communication with updates and photos, and treated our dog with amazing care and love. She has the perfect size house and fenced yard for sitting and I will definitely be contacting her again next time i’m in the area.”

About: I grew up with dogs, after that I got my own dogs and I still own a great dog! I have always trained my dogs and I spend a lot of time walking, grooming and playing with the dog. We don't have a fenced in back yard, but we walk the dog at least 3 times a day. I have a home bakery so I am very flexible in my time. I spend a lot of time with our animals in and outside our home I spend most of my time in the living room where the pet will be. I will play with the pet and give it all of my attention. The pet will be a part of our family when it is here

“Danielle is the best! She truely loves spending time with your baby and Mae’s her home perfectly comfortable. I’d recommend her to anyone who wants the best care for their own baby girl or boy.”

About: Note: our rating is only under 5 stars because we fell behind with updating the app when we had several life changes in 2023. However we have nothing but positive reviews! I have taken care of dogs on and off since childhood. My wife and I both love dogs and have enjoyed taking care of our own two dogs. We spend tons of time walking them, taking them to the park, and cuddling with them. Your dog would receive the same love, attention, care, and prioritization as we give our two. One of us is always home. My wife works from home during the day, and I'm home in the late afternoons and all evening. We take our dogs out frequently and are able to attend to any of your pet's needs throughout the day. We have a large fenced in yard on over an acre of property. We also are happy to take frequent walks or trips to the park of your dog has high energy needs. We have a large home with plenty of indoor space as well. Jacquelin is a stay at home mom to our 5 year old son with lots of help from extended family. Pet care can therefore be prioritized during the day, and Shannon is home in the evening and weekends and loves spending that free time playing with the dogs in our care. Pet needs are definitely able to be (and are) prioritized. Pets are given lots of attention, we make that it's not just their basic needs are attended to, but also that they get lots of extra love and attention! We are both meticulous in our attention to detail and will make sure all needs and wants are met. Jacquelin is a stay at home mom with lots of help with our 5 year old son with extended family, so she has plenty of time and flexibility to meet your pet’s needs! We have a completely fenced in yard. All of our dogs are friendly, however I tend to air on the side of caution and keep dogs separated generally, especially if the pet parent prefers.

About: Reliable and caring dog and cat lover with experience caring for my own pets and pets of all sizes and personalities. I offer walks, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and boarding in a calm, safe environment. Whether your dog enjoys neighborhood walks, beach outings, local trails, or simply companionship at home, I provide attentive care and regular photo updates so you can feel confident while you're away. I work from home part-time, which means I provide attentive supervision and always have plenty of time to play with your pups throughout the day! Your dog will never be left alone for more than a couple of hours at a time. I'm available for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits. I have a fenced in spacious yard, plenty of space at home to cool down. I have an indoor cat. I can easily crate your dog if needed. For those that love water I set up a kiddy pool in the back yard.

About: The day of my baptism (as an infant) my family's dog had puppies, everyone was more excited about her puppies than me:) I have had dogs all my life and a good variety; wonderful mutts, Collies, Jack Russells, Labradors and Golden Retrievers. At 12 I started working at a barn taking care of horses and dogs and cats. I have fostered quite a bit and can deal with dogs with anxiety and other issues by gaining their trust. I used to breed Jack Russells many years ago when there were so few in this country, now I rescue them. I have raised quite a few puppies from birth. I will care for your pet as my own and share pictures and answer any questions you have in a timely manner so you never have to worry. I recently retired and work a part time job with very flexible hours so I can be available on a regular basis. I am usually available on weekends. While I prefer to care for pets in your home so they feel comfortable I am able to have pets at my home if needed. I have a securely fenced yard and my dogs are generally friendly once they get to know another dog.

“Jessica was great with Milo she gave him the proper care he needed as a puppy and took him on a walk and provided pictures and updates through out the day”

Tylon F.

“Mary did a wonderful job hosting Pepper for the day! He was very nervous after not being boarded for quite a while, but she calmed him down and sent pictures throughout the day, which was very reassuring!”

Darla J.

“Karla is great. Very caring. We felt very comfortable leaving Cora with her. Our dog was happy, involved, and her usual source of entertainment. I think she can't wait to see Karla again and spend a day or two. Thanks Karla. Randy and Lori”

About: I live in a quiet, dog-friendly home with my husband and our two dogs, Yoda and Barry, who are both friendly with other pups. I have cared for up to 3 dogs at a time for 2 week stretches, and after years of traveling for work myself, I fully understand the nerves that come with leaving your pet behind. You can expect regular communication, as many photo updates as you want, and a sitter who treats your dog like one of my own. Whether your pup is a senior who needs slow mornings, a high-energy adventurer, or somewhere in between, I meet them where they are. We have a fenced area in the backyard and walk in the mornings and evenings, since the Florida days are getting hot. If you need extra walks or specific times, just let me know. I work remotely and barely leave the house except to walk Yoda twice a day (though I can take your fur baby out as many times as you need during the day) I have a fenced dog park downstairs of my building, a pet spa in the building and am minutes away from Piedmont. Just let me know how often your pet is used to being outside and if there are any behavioral quirks that I should be aware of to make sure your pup has what they need to feel at home. My mornings start with a half mile walk with my two small dogs (6 and 9), followed by flexible work hours that let me check on pets multiple times a day. I am available for midday walks, drop-ins, daycare, and house sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care, so meals, walks, and potty breaks happen on time. Evenings are usually quiet at home, which means plenty of cuddle time, calm play, and a steady routine for any visiting pup. In my home, I keep doors and gates secure, watch for any signs of stress, and introduce new dogs slowly so everyone feels comfortable. Pets are welcome on the furniture and there is a dog bed in every room, but if your pup does better with more space or separation, I can gate off half of the house, and I have two crates available if a dog feels safer in one. I always arrange a meet-and-greet first so your dog can get to know me and our dogs, Yoda and Barry, before booking. When house sitting, I follow your routines closely, respect your space, send daily updates with photos, and treat your home the way I would want mine treated. Clean water, fresh food, and a calm environment are non-negotiables, and I am happy to water plants to your specifications too.
