Doggy Day Care Southwood

About: With many years of experience and a home full of kindness, we welcome every furry guest like family. After our own senior dog crossed the rainbow, our hearts have even more room. My mom and I work part-time, which means one of us is almost always home. Your pet will never feel lonely here — just cared for, watched over, and loved like family. I follow every instruction carefully and always respect each pet’s unique needs. Animals are like kids — they all have their own personality, comfort level, and routine. I make sure they feel safe, understood, and cared for at all times.

About: As a pet owner, I know how important it is to have your furbaby well taken care of when you're not around. My two pups have since passed away and while I'm not ready to add another to the family, I would love to puppysit yours! I can administer meds, feed, walk, and play with your dog. I also have four young children who adore animals and would shower your pup with love and endless playtime. When your dog stays with us, it becomes part of the family. I believe it should be that way because that's how I would want my dog taken care of when I'm out of town. I am currently a stay at home mom so my time is flexible and I am home a lot. Your dog won't be lonely and will get plenty of pets, cuddles, and playtime. When your pup visits us, they become part of the family. So rest assured they will get plenty of attention, walks, and love throughout the day.

“Millie took wonderful care of my pup, PuPu! I’m usually nervous about leaving him with someone new since he has separation anxiety, but she really put my mind at ease. Her lovely outdoor space was perfect for the dogs, and she sent pictures of PuPu having fun with her dog, Toby. When I picked him up, he looked happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. I would absolutely recommend Millie and will definitely book with her again!”

About: I am a former doggy daycare manager which brings me lots of experience working with many dogs at the same time, ranging from all breeds and sizes. I am also Pet CPR and First-Aid certified. I am an energetic individual with lots of love for animals of all shapes and sizes! I believe a pet is a part of the family and should be treated as such. I will follow any and all instructions provided for your loved one(s)! I currently have one dog that loves to play with other dogs and loves going to dog parks. I also have experience in administering insulin to diabetic dogs and topical treatment in ears, paws, wounds, and eyes. All pets are given the care and love they need - rain or shine, day or night. I am very patient with animals and will care for any animal you may need help caring for. I have experience in house sitting for weeks at a time with no issues and will leave your home in excellent condition. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies! I live in a 100% drug-free and child-free home with a fenced backyard. Any and all puppy play will be supervised as I work from home full time. I work from home full time where I can keep a close eye on all pets in my care. We do not travel often and love having extra paws in our home! I have a fenced backyard with lots of space for everyone to run around and go potty. I have one dog-friendly dog that loves to play or lounge around. We have space in our home for crates or beds if you’d like to crate them at night or if we’re away for a few hours.

About: My first best friend was my dog. I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and can’t imagine a home without furbabies. I am happy to play, love on, walk, feed, pick up potty, scoop litter boxes, and administer medicine if needed. I was unemployed from my full-time job this summer and started doing Rover full time. I enjoy meeting my neighbors and their pets. I’ve been pet sitting on the side for five years now and am happy to provide references. I will treat your home as if it were my own. Safety and security are my top priorities. Whatever security measures you have in place and want to share, I will follow your requests.

About: My family and I have what my mom calls a pet ministry. Since our family dog passed in 2017 my mom hasn’t been able to get over the loss. Fortunately in lieu of getting another dog, we have hosted/borrowed dogs of friends and neighbors. I love having a pup in the house but I’m traveling for work and am unable to take on a pet at this time. I’d love to help take great care of your pup! I do home health nursing so my schedule is very flexible! Currently, I do not have any pet commitments but hopefully that changes very soon! I am staying in a hotel so I am unable to host a pet. I don’t mind driving around the state to take care of your pets as I already travel a lot for work 😊

“We were so pleased with Cody and Angel's care. They love staying with Amy and her doggy's. We are very happy . Amy is wonderful looking forward to using the service with Amy alot in the future.”

“Andrea was very accommodating with my early drop off and late pick up! She kept me updated throughout the day and gave my Miller lots of love!”

About: When you board with us, your pet gets more than a place to stay, your pet gets a family to be a part of. We are a family of 6 humans, 1 dog, and 5 chickens and 2 ducks. Your pet will have plenty of playmates! I am a single mother who works from home. I drop off and pick up my kids from school, and run the occasional errand, but usually I am home. I enjoy an evening walk with my chocolate lab and would love your pet to join us. I have a fully fenced, large backyard. I also have two extra crates if your dog is crate-trained and feels more comfortable sleeping in a crate. Pets being on furniture is discouraged, but rarely enforced. I have an SUV and am willing to transport pets if needed.

“Mary did an excellent job taking care of my dog. She was attentive, caring, and made sure my dog was happy and comfortable the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and how well she handled everything. Highly recommend her!”

“Laura was great. I was nervous about leaving Bella and she assured me she would be fine. Bella warmed right up and they had a great first day. I received pictures and videos of how Bella was doing throughout the day.”

“Jennifer was wonderful! She took the time to ask thoughtful questions and really understand my dog’s habits to make sure he was well cared for. My pup struggles with separation anxiety, so I was nervous about leaving him with someone new, but Jennifer quickly put me at ease. She sent me frequent updates and photos, which helped so much. When I went to pick him up, he seemed relaxed and comfortable — a true sign that he was in good hands. I highly recommend Jennifer!”

About: My dad is a veterinarian, I am very lucky since that allows me to know how to vaccinate animals and even suture an emergency wound, what to do in cases where a puppy is fading due to its consumption of some food or to act in case of poisoning I am currently working part time that allows me to take care of and play with your pet after 3 in the afternoon during the week and also on weekends The neighborhood is very quiet and we have nearby parks if you want me to take your dog to one, in winter we could look for options to protect your dogs pads from the snow and the cold

About: As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone who truly treats your pup like family. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and personalities and currently focus on pups 40 lbs and under to keep things calm and comfortable in my cozy home. My own dog is about 65 lbs, gentle, and great with dogs of all sizes! I only care for one family’s pets at a time so I can provide focused attention, a peaceful environment, and personalized care for your pup’s unique needs. I work from home full time, so your dog will have lots of companionship, attention, and supervised time throughout the day. While I don’t include walks by default, I’m happy to offer them if requested. I do require that all dogs are crate trained, just in case I need to run a quick errand—your pup’s comfort and safety always come first. Your dog will be cared for in a safe, calm, and loving home with a fully fenced yard for outdoor potty breaks and play. I only accept crate-trained dogs under 40 lbs and host just one family’s pets at a time. This helps ensure a low-stress, high-attention environment tailored to your dog’s comfort. My dog is friendly and well-socialized, and I always prioritize slow, respectful introductions. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax, knowing your pet is in great hands.

About: My wife and I have two dogs - a tiny shih tzu and a huge golden doodle. We're extreme dog lovers and no dog is too big or too small for us! We have a fenced yard for your pups to run around! I work remotely most of the time and I will have lots of time to cater to your dogs and give them all the love. Safety and comfort are our top priorities. We offer a securely fenced outdoor area for supervised play with our two dogs and a quiet, climate-controlled room for your pet to chill out.

“We had a wonderful experience with Lisa and David, they were very responsive to schedule a meet and greet and we were made so comfortable, we did not feel like it was the first time! Highly recommend and would definitely book again with them.”
