Top rated Smithville doggy day care sitters

“Berkeley was in a fabulous “space” after spending a long, first day with his new puppy sitter. That’s always how i evaluate these things. If my animal or child is too happy to see me, i question the care they received. B was mellow, happy, calm. Took a long nap when we got home. Will definitely use C again!”


“Catherine is such a wonderful doggie caregiver. So loving, patient and kind. She goes above and beyond for Bella Rae. I’m am ever so grateful for all she and her husband does. Thank you both from the Bella Pack.”


“Kimberly was so kind and accommodating. Mia had a great time playing with her and her dog. She has a larger property with plenty of room to roam and play which was great for our golden. We will definitely have her dog sit for us again if ever needed in the future. Thanks!”


“Gage is great! Excellent communication, flexible with drop off/pick up, and obviously loves dogs. He kept Sammy busy all day - which is definitely a chore lol His dogs are very friendly, and he had a big yard for them all to run around in.”


“Tawny was relaxed and good with my dogs. She wasn’t put off by my Shepherds size or talkativeness. On the other hand, I was nervous. First time leaving my dogs with a new sitter. Tawny thought to send pictures of my dogs with some new friends without me asking, which was a relief. My dogs were happy and tired when I picked them up. They had had a great day. They even got a very sweet card from Tawny’a own dogs. Very nice touch”


“The experience with Ernie and Ruth Ann (and Martha) far exceeded our expectations. Ernie and Ruth Ann are well-seasoned pet sitters whose goal was to provide our dog with a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable environment. Our dog was eager to go inside their home on multiple visits. They provided feedback each day on behavior and activities along with pictures and videos. They took great care in introducing and properly socializing the two dogs. We would gladly use Ernie and Ruth Ann again and highly recommend them!”


“Jenny & Freddie are true animal lovers and just a pleasure to interact with. They have been so open to working with our rescue pups many anxieties and after our meet & greet I had no doubt Reno would be in great hands. Our dog just loves it there and has become adjusted & comfortable after just a few day visits. We are so blessed to have found such loving, compassionate & competent sitters for our fur baby. They have not only reduced his anxieties but ours ❤️ Highly recommend Jenny & Frankie if you have a dog with any sort of special needs. We've been looking for 7 years and finally found them!!”


“Teddy was so happy at their place!! I got regular updates, with pictures. The family was really friendly and they really took a good care of my dog. Thank you so much once again!”


“Lucy is amazing!! Brody just lost his big fur sister a couple of days ago, and has been really lonely and suffering. I brought him to Lucy's for day care for a few days til we can adopt a new buddy for him... and I swear, he wants a new mom while we're at it! He doesn't even need me anymore, he's just enamored with Lucy. She has been so kind and he is so happy spending time with her. She's great with updating me throughout the day and matches his energy level perfectly. Couldn't be one bit happier!! Would definitely recommend letting your pets hang out with Lucy!!”


“Nikole and her family were great to Eva. She had fun with Daisy the whole day in their yard. Nikole sent me pictures and updates during the day. It was cold and Nikole followed my advice to put the winter coat on Eva as she is not used to the snow. Also, Eva is Brazilian and Nikole was able to learn few words in Portuguese to be able to communicate with her. I booked Nikole to watch Eva next week again and will continue to book her every time I travel. Eva has a second home in Indiana.”


About: My fiancé and I have cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, from puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. Our experience includes feeding according to dietary needs, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, administering medications, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. And let’s not forget, all the cuddles your pup will allow! Pet care fits seamlessly into our weekly routine, as both my fiancé, Renas, and I work from home. I work part-time and he works full-time, which means one of us is always home to provide attentive care. Renas shares my love for animals and is always actively involved in caring for the pets we welcome. Our schedules are flexible and fully adaptable to meet your pet’s unique needs. While your pet is in our care, we will follow any schedule/routine that fits your pets needs. We will also ensure proper feeding/watering and any dietary restrictions. Pets will have regular walks and playtime as well as proper physical and mental stimulation such as engaging in games or activities that cater to the pet’s personality and energy level. If games and activities aren’t your pets cup of tea, we can be great couch potatoes and cuddle buddies as well. Maintaining a clean pet environment is a priority ensuring their space is free from hazards. Any basic grooming needs will also be provided. Last but not least, we are happy to keep pet owners updated regularly through messages, pictures, or videos to provide peace of mind. (Pets are allowed on furniture and are welcome to sleep in bed if preferred 😊) Side note- We live in a two story home on a half acre lot that backs up to a wooded area. Our yard is not fenced in so dogs will need to be leashed when going outside. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly with tree lined streets and sidewalks on both sides. There’s also several trails nearby that’s great for dog walking and adventures!

About: Dogs are a marvelous source of companionship. I show them compassion and are attentive to their needs. I enjoy running with dogs, playing fetch, holding, and petting dogs. I have experience in playing with dogs, grooming, bathing, feeding, and walking dogs. While growing as a young child, my dad brought home various dogs at sundry times. I was the dog's main caregiver. My mother eventually would release the dogs because she did not like them, but I was able to build a solid experience and bond with them before she did. In Jamaica where my parents were born, their are many outdoor dogs roaming the streets. I easily befriend them and usually play with them and feed them. My schedule is flexible with me usually being available in the morning. If the price for my service is not suitable for you, I am open for negotiation. Call or text me.

Whether it’s making a special connection with each of our pets, ensuring they get their walks and exercise, or even preparing their meals with the utmost care, Katie’s dedication shines through.

Smithville dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kim is a dog whisperer, I swear! My bluetick coonhound normally has some anxiety around new people, but he warmed right up to her and had a great time playing with the other pups there. And my Peekapoo/Chiweenie boy actively dislikes other dogs, usually, but was apparently very polite and civil with the other dogs and had a great time. It's a literal miracle! Will definitely book her again.
