Doggy Day Care in Smithfield

About: I have owned and taken care of many fur babies in my life. Dogs and cats are my favorite! I have a Papillon and she plays well with others. I'm retired and have the extra time to play and walk them. I love to "pet sit" for others, they bring me a lot of joy! I had to board my girls in the past in a facility and I felt so guilty because it felt like I was leaving them in a cage. I wished Rover had been an option for me. I would have felt much better knowing my girls were being cared for in a loving home atmosphere. Also, I am competent in my ability to administer medications for special need pets. Although, I have an Angier address, I'm located off 50 and 210 in the McGee's Crossroads area.

“Tanya was amazing with my dog Peace! My dog came home happy and content. I will definitely use her again! Peace is a rescue and suffers anxiety so I can’t use traditional daycare or boarding . Tanya was great with her and I now have a great option for care while I’m gone !!”

About: **For first time Rover users-- use promo code JAMIEC48673 to save $20 off your first booking** I absolutely love animals. I have been in love with animals since I was a child. I love coming home to my fur baby every day. That is the true picture of unconditional love and the welcoming love is amazing. Lexi and I would like to invite your fur babies to come stay with us. Lexi will keep your fur baby occupied. I will also monitor them closely and make sure the fur babies get alone. Lexi is a boxer/pit mix that loves to play and hasn't met a dog she did not like yet. She will be an awesome companion for your fur baby while you are away. We will go on walks around my subdivision, play games of tug of war, fetch, and burn those calories. Your dog won't have to dwell on you being away with me and Lexi around. They will be happy and well engaged. I am currently working from home so I will be with your pet all day. They will get bathroom breaks every 2 to 3 hours. I will be home with your pet except for short outings to the grocery store or such. I will have a watchful eye. I have plenty of dog toys to keep your pup entertained. I will also make sure your pet feels loved while you are away.

“Thanks Ramely! I can tell Leela enjoyed you and your family during her two days there!”

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs, and so have my children. We have fostered with local rescues and helped friends and family with dog sitting needs. We have a fenced in yard and plenty of space to entertain your best friends! I am currently home full time, so can be totally flexible with scheduling. Looking forward to filling some of our time with extra doggo love! I have 3 teenage daughters who love to walk, brush, bathe, and play with dogs of all kinds, but are also responsible and understanding enough to give space to quieter or more senior animals. I also have 2 dogs of my own. Petunia is super friendly and especially loves puppies as she thinks they’re all her babies! Sofie loves to play with lots of friends! I work from home full time so will be with your babies all the time! I can be very flexible with scheduling and lengths of stay. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space. I can crate if needed, but will be home and available during their stay if they are like my dogs and prefer to lounge with me on the couch.

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and am comfortable with all breeds.I work from home full time and have the flexibility for frequent bathroom breaks as needed. I have a small fenced area for ouside time and enjoy walks through the neighborhood when the weather allows. I work from home so I am able to provide care throughout the day without the worry of your pet being left alone for an extended period. On the occasions where I have to leave, pets are free to roam the house or can be crated at the owners request based off the pets comfort level and behavior when left alone. My work schedule allows for flexible breaks for pet care. I have a large back yard and live on a quiet street perfect for walks. I am also able to provide drop in visits throughout the day if caring for the animals in your home.

“Amber did a great job with Sig. The meet and greet was controlled and Amber eased his sadness and had him feeling comfortable rather quickly.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I have been a teenager while also always having a dog of mine own since I was a child. In addition to regular dog walking and sitting, I also have experience working with puppies and senior dogs as it is important they receive unique care! As someone who works from home full-time, I’m available every day of the week to care for your pets. My flexible schedule allows me to give them consistent attention, affection, and care throughout the day—whether it’s for walks, feeding, potty breaks, or just some extra snuggles. I’m home all day, so your dog will never be left alone for long periods. This makes me a great fit for pets who need a little extra company, have special routines, or just love being around people. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, boarding, or doggy day care, I’m here to keep your pet happy, safe, and loved—just like they’re part of the family! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ve created a calm, pet-friendly environment where your furry friend can feel secure, relaxed, and loved. My home is clean, quiet, and fully pet-proofed—with no crowded spaces or unpredictable surprises. I share my home with my own friendly puppy, so your dog will have a built-in playmate if they enjoy socializing! We also have a large yard (currently unfenced) where they can run, play, and stretch their legs throughout the day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I follow their routine and give them the same loving care I give my own. When they’re with me, they’re treated like family. With me, you can feel confident your pet is in a safe, caring, and trustworthy environment every step of the way.

About: For my husband and me, caring for dogs is a deep-seated passion. Our world revolves around their happiness and well-being. We started this journey because we believe every dog deserves to feel safe, cherished, and right at home, even when their favorite people are away. When your dog stays with us, they become a temporary, but much-loved, member of our family. As a husband-and-wife team, pet care is the heart of our household's daily rhythm. Our days are structured around our furry guests, including morning and evening walks, dedicated playtime, and consistent feeding times. Because we're a team, there is always someone home, ensuring your dog receives constant companionship and attention. Their routine truly guides our day. Our number one priority is creating a safe, secure, and loving environment. We do not have a fenced yard, but we do take them for a walk all the time (always when needed). We treat every dog like a member of our family, with plenty of affection. To build trust, we maintain your dog's specific routine and send you daily photo and video updates, giving you complete peace of mind that they are happy and in responsible hands.

“Hannah & Patrick were great with our pups. We did a meet & greet the week before so our dogs could meet on a nice walk. They have a nice sized yard for the dogs to play outside & took them on lots of walks! They only spent the day with them but they got lots of love, exercise & I got a lot of pics! Can’t wait for Lily& Ellie to visit again”

About: I grew up around horses, dogs, cats, and Guinea pigs. I love animals and getting an opportunity to spend time with them and take care of them. Growing up, I also got to watch my sister who was in law enforcement do some K-9 training and help with her breeding business. I recently moved back home to NC post military- I started working Rover Jan. 23’ during unemployment and I loved it and want to continue as a side job! I am offering to pet sit over night if needed, provide potty breaks and walks for clients, and feeding services, etc. as requested by the client. Any additional information please do not hesitate to ask :)

“Dawn was wonderful! She was very welcoming, communicative and sweet with my 4 month old puppy. She sent updates and pictures and I knew he was in good hands the moment I dropped him off. I look forward to him visiting again.”

About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs since I was born. I know how to wash dogs, feed them, give them medicine (pills and liquid). I also sense when they want to go potty or when they need extra love and attention. I like playing with dogs outside. I don't have kids, so dogs are like kids for me :) I like when dogs are sleeping on the bed with me. So, if you feel that your dog deserves a great nanny, contact me. Unfortunately, I DON’T TAKE PUPPIES anymore. I'm sorry… I'm working from home, so I'm available 24/7 for your furry friends. Would be great if you could bring your pet after 11 am. If this is not working for you, contact me and we will find a solution for your situation. I live in a house with a big yard. CATS will have a room with cat trees and toys. Litter boxes will be in the bathrooms, food will be in the kitchen. Cats will be walking freely in the house. If there is a dog in the house, cats will be in their room with a litter box and an automatic feeder. DOGS will be walking freely if there are no cats in the house. Otherwise, cats will have their own room and dogs will be everywhere except the room. Every 2-3 hours (depending on the owner’s requirements) I will be walking with a dog. I have a quiet and safe neighborhood, so different dogs are not going to disturb the walk. For more questions and details, please contact me.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals. Any animal in my care has always been loved and catered to. I’m always so excited to meet new adorable dogs & cats! Pet care fits into my daily routine because I love long walks in the park or around my neighborhood to get fresh air. I have the space & time to care for animals! Also a huge dog park right scrounge street where the animals can run and play. I have plenty of room in my apartment to care for pets. I also have a grass area/sidewalk to take dogs on walks or out to use the bathroom. I love brushing their fur, giving water & making sure they are as comfortable/happy as can be!

“Anna was amazing! Took really good care of our boy and he cannot wait to have another play date ?”
