Doggy Day Care In Smallwood

“Amanda was amazing and highly communicative throughout the entire stay. She went above and beyond to help my anxious pup feel comfortable, which made a huge difference. I really appreciated her care and attention.”

About: I am a foster for Charlotte Mecklenburg Animal Care and Control. Over the years, I have had experience with caring for sick dogs, healthy dogs, pregnant dogs (and pups), quirky dogs and anything in between. I work from home so I am always here to care for your fur baby. I do have a super friendly dog, Diamond, who was originally an addition to my late Sky, who passed Oct 2025 from old age (13). I absolutely love animals in general, especially dogs and aquatic life. I have no kids and it’s a non smoking household. Your baby will enjoy lounging on the many dog beds and going for walks in the neighborhood (if that’s their thing). I can’t wait to meet you! I currently work fully remote from home and I have a very low key, low traffic household. I am always home to care for your fur baby. I can crate your fur baby if needed, however, I do have a dog friendly dog who is not crated and could always keep your baby company.

“Peggy was great with my baby girl! She made sure my pup had lots of plays throughout the day, and sent me pictures and updates. She was able to accommodate our booking request such short notice, which really helped us out. Peggy’s home was welcoming and had lots of space for my pup to run around with her pups. I would recommend Peggy if you’re in need of daycare!”

“We just started using Mia for daycare (and later this week boarding), but she’s been amazing to work with. She’s a true dog person and cares for each dog as if they were her own. Our dog Birdie doesn’t do well in traditional kennel environments, so being at a home with personal, human bonding is perfect for what she needs.”

“Amazing! Was so great with Peanut and making him feel comfortable and understanding his allergies! Sent me photos through out the day :) Highly recommend!”

“Ariane did a great job watching Raizen. You can tell she really cares. I didn't worry about my pup once. Nanuk was super friendly and adorable. Raizen definitely made a friend.”

“Had a wonderful experience with Azia. She was prompt with my drop off and pick up times and flexible to my schedule. She sent lots of pictures which I loved! Bella seemed to warm up very quickly to her and made herself right at home. We will definitely be coming back :)”

“Great experience with Destiny! She took amazing care of our 4 month old puppy and kept me updated throughout the day with pictures, which gave a lot of peace of mind on our first day apart. When I picked our girl up, she was calm, happy, and clearly had a great day. Would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to others.”

“Nia was absolutely amazing with our pup over Valentine’s Day weekend! She was so kind, patient, and gentle with our anxious baby, which meant the world to us. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and check-ins, so I always felt reassured that he was safe and comfortable. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and that level of attention and love is hard to find. We felt completely at ease leaving him in her hands. We will definitely be booking with Nia again soon — highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and have been a dog owner for the past three years. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and sticking to routines. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important trust and consistency are, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m currently a nursing student in a hybrid program, so I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate different needs. I’m reliable, organized, and happy to work around pet routines. I have one very friendly, medium sized playful dog, and there is a dog park at my apartment that I visit often for safe play and exercise. I always supervise pets closely and follow owner instructions.

“Ana was great! She was very responsive and accommodating with scheduling. I so appreciated all the photos and updates she provided throughout the day, it was easy to tell my pup was having a wonderful time!”

About: I grew up surrounded by dachshunds, so caring for dogs has always been second nature to me. While dachshunds hold a special place in my heart, I truly love all breeds and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with both energetic puppies and older dogs who may need extra care and comfort. What sets me apart is the way I focus on making every pet feel safe, loved, and at home, whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or simply cuddling😍 Pet care is just part of my everyday life since it’s such a priority for me. I’m usually free most weekdays and weekends, and of course I also make time for Tink. I take her to Skiptown a few times a week since she can be a stubborn little walker. I love going on the rail trail, and having a furry buddy to join me always makes it even better! I create a calm and relaxed environment with dog TV, provide plenty of love, treats, and give extra comfort to dogs missing their pawrent while they’re away.

“Cullen took great care of our girl!! We got tons of pictures and she looked very happy and relaxed in all of them :)”

“Donye has recently become my go-to sitter! 10/10 highly recommend!”

“This was my first time using this service and safe to say I absolutely loved it. I was very worried that Dixie would be upset and distant. Thankfully Dixie had a great time and socialized with the other dogs greatly. I was kept well up to date with her progress and had great communication so all my worries were put to rest. If I’m ever in the area I will definitely be going back to Mathias again without a doubt.”

“Adrienne & Jarrod are incredible! They are kind, responsive, and accommodating which made the experience stress-free. Through the numerous photos they provided it was clear that our dog, Harley, got along very well with Remy and received a great balance of exercise and enrichment throughout the day. Harley can't wait for her next stay!”

“Amazing, amazing, amazing! Took such good care of my pup and kept me updated on him. He understood about how my pup needs to take his medicine- I appreciate all they did for Cashew and his comfort! Highly recommend :)”

“Latrice was available last minute on Christmas eve/Christmas morning of all days. Was literally a lifesaver that she was available last minute on a holiday. My puppy was happy as could be when I picked him up and I could tell he was well taken care of. :) I would absolutely book with her again!”
