Doggy Day Care in South Union

About: Animal lover here! I take very good care of dogs of all kinds as demonstrated by my volunteer and pet sitting experience. I have volunteered at shelters with scared dogs large and small, fostered and trained shelter puppies, was a babysitter for puppy raisers with Guide Dogs for the Blind and served client families as a professional pet sitter. My role for others' fur babies is to provide care so that they have their needs met in their parents' absence. I am a great surrogate parent! I like to keep dog routines continued to minimize stress on pets and their people. For parents that don't have the time or for dogs that can use additional exercise, I can take dogs out for walks. I have also been a cat mom of 4 at once and love cats too! I have my dog, Brodie, and my routine revolves around him. I make sure he gets the memtal and physical stimulation and exercise he needs to be healthy and happy. I want to help my clients and pets with this as well for their families. I have a fenced yard and very dog-friendly set up at home. At client's homes, I respect the space and help pets feel secure in their routines with attention and care.

“Bobbie is the best. Took great care of Barry. Was friendly and nice to work with. She’s flexible with her schedule, so I can pick up my pup when it works best for me. And she’s really reasonably priced.”

“Doggy daycare with David has bean great! He has two dogs, so my sweet pup is never alone. Very responsive. Very easy. Would recommend!”

Keala P.

“Deidre was amazing with our two whippets, Oliver and Finley! She has a spacious, fully fenced backyard where the boys had a blast running and playing. Her two pups were super friendly and got along great with ours. Deidre was incredibly easy to communicate with—flexible, responsive, and made the whole experience stress-free. We’d absolutely book with her again!”

“My pup is very fearful of new situations but seemed to do fine with Darby. We're going to go back this week and hopefully my pup will get more comfortable. Darby seems knowledgeable about fearful dogs and giving them time to relax. Fingers crossed that my girl will relax and enjoy herself!”

“Caitlin has been amazing with Nai’a! Though Nai’a is an anxious pup, she liked Caitlin instantly when we met the first time. Since then Nai’a has stayed over at Caitlin’s a few times and once Caitlin watched her at our house. One of the biggest challenges with Nai’a is that she runs away from her sitters. But, with Caitlin it’s finally been working out well and I feel so relieved to have found a regular sitter! Caitlin sends photos regularly and Nai’a seems to have fun at her house with her pups. Also, she is really sweet and flexible. Thanks so much for everything Caitlin!”

“This was my first time my one year-old Australian terrier was using daycare or being boarded. Both he and I love Allison and her lab. The dogs got along very well because her pup is so sweet. He was very tolerant of a speedy short dog zooming around him. Allie made me feel extremely comfortable with leaving him.”

Cynthia W.

“Desiree was so flexible and accepted my fur babies at last minute. During the time I was gone I could tell they received lots of attention with all the pictures I received. I felt completely comfortable and will definitely book again in the future.”

Jadine C.

“We were very happy with our dogs care with Pamela. Our dog got the attention and activity with other dogs that he needed while we were gone for a day. And he was tired and happy when we picked him up 😀 It was nice to receive pictures thruout the day too! Will definately use Pamela's services again for our pup!”

Shelley T.

“Our little Odie loved his time at Rochelle's! She took such good care of him and he came home calm and relaxed every day. Great communication and wonderful location. Highly recommend!”

Susan M.

“Beto had so much fun with Jennifer! Lot's of playtime with the other dogs, then got to curl up on the sofa for a nap. She sent a long a half dozen pics, two of which her husband took which are portrait quality. We will most definitely leave Beto with her again soon!”

About: I want to care for and spoil your dogs just as you would if you could be home. I have been working with pups going on 8 years. I began by walking dogs at a local humane society, then on to becoming a Certified Professional Dog Trainer. I absolutely love dog sitting and I have the skills to administer medications. Currently I facilitate small enriched dog play groups during the day and in the evening I provide private dog training. I am just as comfortable working with giant breeds as I am with the tiniest. While sitting for your pup I can take them for walks, go to a dog park, and go for hikes. I will send you pictures of your pup daily and keep you updated. I also don’t mind you checking in as often as you need to feel comfortable. I know it’s hard to be away from your your four legged friends. I hope to become one of your dogs best friends! I run a doggy adventure day camp that your dog can join in while boarding. I hike daily M-F with all the pups in my care. We frequent the local forest as well as I fenced sniff spots. While in my home you can rest assured knowing that your dog is being spoiled, loved, and supervised. My yard is fenced in which makes potty breaks easy! All dogs are kept in separate areas while eating and dogs are pups are kept separate if I have to go run an errand.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages - from playful puppies to wise seniors, so I understand each stage’s unique needs. Whether it’s training, gentle care, or keeping them active and happy, I make sure every dog feels loved and safe. I work full-time from home, so I have plenty of time to care for your pups. I’m available for boarding any day of the week and can give them attention, walks, and cuddles whenever they need. I provide a safe and calm environment for pets. My home has a fully fenced yard, and there are no children or other pets, so your furry friend can play and relax freely and safely.

“Leanne was so attentive to Chloe’s old dog needs and helped me start thinking more seriously about the care she needs for her doggy dementia. I really appreciated the time she took to get to know us and help Chloe feel more comfortable at her first ever sitter experience”

About: I provide dedicated dog-only daycare with personalized care tailored to each dog’s energy and routine. I specialize in senior dog care — gentle walks, mobility support, medication administration, and low-impact enrichment. Dogs enjoy daily exercise, supervised play, puzzle toys, and cozy home comfort. I send prompt photo updates and detailed notes, and offer flexible scheduling to fit owners’ needs. I offer dog-only daycare for small dogs (under 25 lbs). Available Monday–Thursday 7:00 AM–7:00 PM, Friday 7:00 AM–5:30 PM, and weekends 8:00 AM–5:00 PM. Daily routine includes morning greeting and potty break, a morning walk or play session, mid-day rest with enrichment toys, an afternoon walk/play session, feeding/medication as needed, and a final calm wind-down before pickup. Regular photo updates and notes are sent after each visit. I care for dogs in my home in a calm, dog-only daycare environment (no dog sitting in clients' homes). My household includes an easygoing 11-year-old pug, Milo, and two friendly cats, Jewel (7) and Oliver (1); all are well-socialized and tolerant of visiting small dogs. I accept only small dogs under 25 lbs with friendly, social temperaments to ensure safe, relaxed interactions. In-home routine and care: - Introductions: Gradual, supervised meet-and-greet on arrival to assess comfort and body language. - Supervision: Constant, close supervision during play with separation options (gates/rooms/crates) if any stress appears. - Exercise & enrichment: Leashed walks, short play sessions, and puzzle toys tailored to each dog’s energy level. - Rest & space: Multiple cozy resting areas and quiet time for seniors or shy dogs. Feeding & meds: Individual feeding by schedule; medication administered as directed with written instructions. - Hygiene & safety: Clean, dog-proofed spaces; fresh water always available; immediate cleanup of accidents. - Communication: Photo updates and a brief report after each day covering potty, play, meals, behavior, and any concerns. I prioritize calm, supervised socialization and a stress-free routine to make visiting dogs feel safe and happy alongside Milo, Jewel, and Oliver.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds—from playful puppies and senior dogs to finicky cats and exotic pets—I provide loving, reliable, and attentive care tailored to each animal’s unique needs. I treat every home with the same respect and responsibility as my own, ensuring it's clean, secure, and well-maintained. What sets me apart is my deep understanding of animal behavior, my commitment to clear communication, and my ability to keep pets calm, happy, and healthy while their owners are away. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to special diets, or simply providing extra cuddles, I go above and beyond to make sure your pets (and your home) are in the best possible hands. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s part of my everyday life. I’ve built my routine around giving animals the attention, exercise, and love they need to thrive. Whether it’s morning feedings, midday play sessions, or evening check-ins, I truly enjoy every moment spent caring for pets. My flexible schedule allows me to be present and reliable, whether it’s for daily visits, overnight stays, or extended house sitting. Caring for animals brings me joy, calm, and a sense of purpose—it’s not a side job, it’s a natural and fulfilling part of my week. When I care for pets in their home, I treat the space—and the animals in it—with the same respect, love, and attention I give my own. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment, so I work hard to maintain their routines and surroundings just as you would. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddles on the couch, or keeping things tidy, I make it my priority to create a calm, happy atmosphere. Your home becomes my home during each stay, and I approach every visit with trustworthiness, responsibility, and genuine care.

About: I’m a mature and experienced animal lover, I’ve had many animals through the years and that I have personally owned from dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and horses. Referrals available upon request I have done pet sitting for friends and family through the years and I’m home everyday to care for your animals. I have received many referrals for the quality of care and affection I give to their animals. My experience with animals and my fully fenced backyard and a clean non smoking family home in a nice neighborhood in Olympia/lacey area is ideal for pet sitting. We lost our beautiful and sweet Bernese mountain dog recently so I would love to petsit to have some dog love . No dogs allowed that show aggression to people or others dogs. Please be UPDATED ON VACCINES AND FLEA PREVENTION Spring/Summer months will need a phone screenshot or show a paper copy . Thanks

“Charles had another amazing day at Aunt Sonia's! I asked him on a scale of 1 to 10 how much fun he had and he said a 20! He whined when we left!”

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. I have a genuine love for being near animals and taking care of them because they brighten my day. I am currently in college I want to try to make pet sitting a part time job so I can save up for my future. The apartment comples I live in has a dog park where a lot of dogs go and have fun, if there is any type of schedule by the owner/owners I would follow it. I usually try to relax on my free time, reading books and enjoying art, my hobbies give me time to take care of and play with the animals that I care for. The doors are locked unless I or someone with a key unlocks them, i make sure that the dogs have a leash on before I open the door and that there are no cats near the door to run out.
