Doggy Day Care in Smithfield

About: I’ve grew up with dogs and have taken care of them All My Life Basically! They Provide An Unconditional Love & Deserve That Unconditional Love Back! Although I currently don’t have any dogs of my own, I sure do enjoy the company of family Members & others dogs. Loving them, walking them, Cleaning Up After Them, Bathing Them, & Also feeding & playing with them ! Animals Are Family & What Is Life Without a Wagging Tail?! I’m currently working from home so I have plenty enough time to play & care for your fur babies! I Do onboarding in my home whether It’s For A Few Hours, all Day , over night or for a few nights! I Love to update parents on their fur babies with pics and videos to show how they are doing as I know some dogs get separation anxiety from being away from their owners! I do not have a fenced in yard but I would love to take your dogs for walks to enjoy the fresh air and potty! I do not have any animals currently living with me so I don’t mind them not being in a crate, if your dog is crate trained and would prefer them to be in it certain times that is also okay with me.

“This is the second time Megan has watched our pup, Takoa. He loves playing with her dogs and getting lots of cuddles. Thanks for taking such great care of him!”

“Jessica did a wonderful job with Webster. She sent me videos and pics throughout the day and really made me feel at ease with having my puppy out of my care for the day. Thank you so much Jessica.”

“I highly recommend Kathryn!! She went above and beyond for our puppy Draco’s first doggy daycare. She made sure to check in many times throughout the day and send lots of pictures. She even took him to the dog park to hangout! We will definitely be booking with her again when needed.”

“I used Rover for the first time for doggy day care over the 4th of July weekend 2022 while on vacation. I chose Janel based on her excellent reviews and the fact that she was conveniently located in DeepCreek/ McHenry, MD. I also loved that the dogs had full access to her home and even allowed on the furniture. Janel and her family welcomed my 50 pound female labradoodle with open arms as one of their own. I received photo's of My girl on walks and relaxing at the house which reassured me that she was in good hands. I previously used different company in the area and when picking up my dog she was very stressed and anxious. I assumed she may have been crated for some length of time. Not a good situation for an active 2 year old. She was the total opposite when I picked her up from Janel's home. Her tail was wagging and she was in good spirits. I am very pleased and feel fortunate to have found Janel and her family. I am a frequent visitor to the area and hope Janel's home will be a second home for Maya.  I'm so grateful for dog loving families like Janel's! Yolanda”

About: I decided to join Rover because my friends always contact me to take care of their pets and they say I should make a job of it :) I’ve also been a personal assistant to two families, which included staying with and checking in on their pets on a daily basis and while they were away. I’ve had a few clients over the years where I’ve taken care of their dogs, cats, rabbits, goats and other farm animals. I’ve helped run a small farm as well so if you have horses or other animals that need looked after, I’m all in! I have a college degree and manage a restaurant now. I’m very responsible, handle stress well, and have always taken my obligations very seriously. I’m trustworthy and always on time. That’s part of being a business woman :) Besides that though, I truly love animals and I’m very fond of dogs, cats, and horses. I’d love to help you out so be sure to get in touch! Fortunately, as a restaurant manager, I get to create my own schedule so I enjoy helping out families with their pets in my off time. If you need me to take your dog(s) for a walk, stop by to play with your pets, check in, potty breaks, or spending the night, let’s discuss what schedule you need. I’m very flexible and can also help with any special needs you may have such as giving meds or cleanings. Just leave me instructions and I will be sure to follow those and any other guidelines you may have. Keeping your pets safe and entertained will be my priority. I’d love to send you pics and check-ins to offer you peace of mind while your away.

“Kelly was a great sitter for our beagle! He spent a fun day with her and her family and came home happy and tired. She is very attentive to anything he might need and was wonderful to work with. Overall a great experience!”

“Our pup is experiencing some separation anxiety and so we weren't sure how he would handle a day at a sitters. Mckayla and Christian took such good care of him. They sent lots of pictures to reassure us that all was well with him. Thank you for your great care of our puppy! Note: only reason we are not repeat customers is that we live 7 hours away and were just briefly stopping here.”

“She made me feel so comfortable dropping off my puppy, to someone other than family. She updated me so much and sent so many photos and videos !! I would definitely recommend her for any needs !!”

About: I've spent my whole life surrounded by animals—caring for everything from playful puppies and cuddly cats to bunnies, ferrets, and more. I’ve fostered kittens, helped them grow strong and social, and supported pets through every stage of life. What started as helping family, friends, and neighbors has grown into a true calling. I have experience with pets of all ages, medical needs, and those requiring special attention—like blind or deaf animals who need extra patience and care. Whether it’s daily check-ins or last-minute sitting, I treat every pet like family—because that’s how I’d want mine treated too. I work from home and I make my own schedule. So, tons of time for walks, play-time, bathing, and cuddles. Missing your fur baby? No worries! As a fur mom, I know how reassuring it can be to get updates, with pictures and videos, while being away from your babies. I have 2 pups and tons of toys that will keep your pups entertained, and space they can retreat to if they feel overstimulated. I live close to trails for enjoyable walks, for the pups that are properly safeguarded with prevention and vaccines for a walk through the woods. I have plenty of kitty toys and scratchers for my kitty friends, so they can have fun and keep their nails in tip top shape. My fur babies have a calm and safe environment, and we’d love to share that with your fur baby.

“Sarah was really great with Cali. He warmed up to her right away! It was our first time dropping him off at a doggy day care, and it was a very positive experience :) highly recommend”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have taken care of many of the neighborhood pets with walks pet sitting and some Slight grooming. I am experience with special needs babies. I have given shots and can make sure an animal will take their pill. They are something that I love and I’m hoping to be able to turn this into a full-time career. I work from home and my position allows me a lot of time to work on other things. I will be able to take care of your baby at any time. I have a decent sized backyard that I have a strong wire fence and my house is pretty big which I allow them to have the run. I have cages if necessary but only if the babies want that.

“Amber and her family took care of my puppy as if she was theirs. The pup was always happy to see them and a little slow to leave, which is a great signal that she was well loved. Thanks, Amber!”

“Josie was great, extremely friendly and welcoming, she make my skittish Poca at home; being calm and slowly introducing her to the other happy pets, which makes me relaxed, allowing me to enjoy myself worry free. I hope to be a regular of Josie’s Doggie Day care if she’s available, which I hope she is.”

About: I have had dogs & cats my entire life—all shapes, sizes & colors. I am passionate about providing loving and attentive support to pets of all kinds. I have experience administering medications, watching puppies, caring for seniors, you name it! Most notably, I pay close attention to those special pets who may need specific care. I am dedicated to making each pet's experience enjoyable and stress-free. I believe every pet deserves the best, and I will always strive to provide that with the utmost compassion and professionalism. My schedule is pretty flexible since I’m a student. I only have class on Monday-Wednesday leaving my schedule open almost entirely. I also have time those days too. I understand that some pets need fed on a certain schedule or let out more often than others. My open availability allows me to provide that. I understand the trust needed to allow a "complete stranger" into your home. I promise to make sure as though you and your pet don't feel as if I am a stranger. That being said, I prefer always meeting you and your pet before providing care. I will also treat your pet, and your home, as my own. Giving them and it the utmost care and respect.

About: I love animals and spoiling them is my game! I have 3 spoiled dogs. I have had my own personal animals for as long as I can remember. Each pet I look after is treated as my own. I grew up on a farm and we took in rescues of any kind. I have been taking care of puppies and kittens on bottles to seniors with shots/meds at times my whole life. Each pet I look after is treated as my own. I'm working part-time at home. I have time for play, walks, and maybe just a fun ride for a pup cup. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs. I have 3 friendly dogs, 2 small (8 lbs) /1 med (25 lbs). I have crates of different sizes, harnesses and leads, and collars if needed.

“I immediately trusted Caitlin to do what's best for my dog.”

About: There's nothing more wonderful than the love of a dog! I had previously primarily used Rover to find quality sitters and now my schedule is allowing me to return the favor. I'm a nurse and currently working on my Doctorate, so much of this time during this period in my schooling is spent studying from home, allowing me a very flexible schedule. From experiences seeking out sitters for my own dog, I know it is incredibly important (and sometimes challenging) to find someone trustworthy and reliable when life gets busy. I grew up with a number of dogs in our house and have translated that love over the last decade into dedicated involvement with foster/rescue organizations. I have experience caring for all dogs, from litters of new puppies to senior dogs and those with special needs. Some dogs I've cared for are experiencing their first taste of a home, and it couldn't be more rewarding to make them feel safe and loved while working on leash skills, potty training, baths, etc. I am happy to accommodate you and your pet's preferences--I understand the importance of routine, consistency, and willingness to accommodate a pup's specific needs My schedule is very flexible during the day allowing for frequent potty breaks, multiple walks, park trips, and plenty of attention/playtime. My senior girl Lilo loves having visitors, and we are happy to welcome another dog into our home!

“Allie was super sweet with my dogs, I knew they were being cared for very well. She kept me updated constantly and sent me pictures. My babies were very happy in her care.”
