Doggy Day Care in Stecoah

“Gunner had the best time playing with his new friends! Michelle is an excellent communicator and very attentive to the various needs of dogs (and people). I loved the photos, captions, and video updates she sent throughout the day. Gunner was a happy, tired pup at pick-up! I definitely recommend Michelle and will use her service again when we return.”

“Stefanie was great with my fur baby Lizzie. Lizzie has anxiety and can’t be left alone or put in a kennel. Stefanie stayed with Liz every minute why we were gone. Stefanie took Lizzie on long walks in the woods and down to the lake. Stefanie updated me through out the day letting me know how Liz was doing and even sent me pictures of Liz through out the day. Liz stayed with Stefanie two days in a row. The 2nd morning we took Liz, she was so excited to see Stefanie. That means so much to a pet owner when your pet is happy to be with someone in their care. We will be using Stefanie again when we are back in the area. Thanks so much your the best Stefanie!”

“We couldn't have asked for a better puppy sitter! Danita kept us updated with sweet pictures of our completely relaxed puppy while we visited Dollywood for the day. She took him for a walk and even got him to eat a bit, which he rarely does when he's not in his routine. Next time we're in Townsend and in need of a puppy sitter, we will definitely reach out to Danita. THANK YOU so much!”

“Zach was super easy to communicate with and was a great sitter while we explored the area. We will definitely use him again if we come back to town. Thanks again, Zach!”

About: Pet care in our home is truly a calling for me. I have over 35 years of experience caring for animals, and I humbly believe God has given me a special gift for working with them. I provide hands-on, attentive care every day, including walking, feeding, basic training reinforcement, and—most importantly—genuine affection and companionship. I offer a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where pets are treated like family, not just clients. I am comfortable working with a wide variety of pets and take the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and personality. Your pet will receive patient, individualized care, plenty of interaction, and a safe, loving place to feel at home while you’re away. Pet care is woven into my daily routine. Between homeschooling our daughter and managing our home and all the projects of our Farm, caring for animals through feeding, walks, training, playtime, and supervision is a consistent, intentional part of every day! I care for pets in our home as if they are part of our family. They receive a safe, calm environment with structured routines that include feeding, walks, playtime, rest, and one-on-one attention. I take time to understand each pet's personality, comfort level, and needs, whether that means active engagement, gentle training, or quiet companionship. Pets are closely supervised, shown patience and kindness, and given plenty of affection so they feel secure, respected, and at home while in my care.

“Amanda took great care of Benji and Stella! They had a blast playing with Cleo. They were happy and tired when we picked them up. Amanda is a natural with dogs--I would definitely recommend boarding your dog(s) with her when you are in the Smokies and want to do a long hike, because the park does not allow dogs.”

About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.

“I feel blessed for having found Jane. My dog came back home so calm and chill, which shows she was loved and not scared. Jane also sent me lots of updates throughout the day. We will definitely go back! Thank you so much”

About: Caring for animals has been a constant joy in my life since childhood, and I bring over 25 years of experience as both a pet owner and sitter. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with oral and injectable medications, and able to accommodate pets with special diets or unique needs. My experience includes caring for puppies who need training and patience, as well as senior pets who require extra gentleness and support. What sets me apart is the home and environment I provide— Our little farm offers space to explore, a secure fenced yard for safe play, and the love of my entire family. With three children who adore animals, every pet gets an abundance of cuddles, companionship, and supervision. I understand how hard it can be to leave your beloved pets, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. As a stay-at-home mom, I spend about 80% of my time at home. This allows me to give pets consistent love, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My three children, who are all animal lovers, also enjoy providing extra playtime and cuddles, making sure your pet always feels included and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on a 2-acres with a secure fenced-in yard for safe, off-leash play and exploration. Pets are never left alone for long periods and are treated like part of our family. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, experienced in administering medications, and happy to accommodate special diets or crate training if preferred. Our home is filled with love, supervision, and plenty of cozy spots for relaxation so your pet feels secure and happy.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for all types of pets combined with a highly personalized and attentive approach to care. I treat every pet as if they were my own — learning their unique personality, preferences, and routine so they feel comfortable and happy right away. Above all, I’m deeply committed to building trust with both the owner and the pet. Previous clients often mention how relaxed and joyful their pets are when they return home — that kind of feedback means everything to me. Pet care is something I look forward to and easily weave into my daily life. I’m usually up early and start the day with some morning outside time and porch lounging. Being home during the day allows for me to provide regular potty breaks, play sessions, and companionship. Evenings are relaxed with dinner, ample outside time, and plenty of snuggle or training time. Combined with my own pets and also sitting for friends and family for years now, I have gained experience in many pet types and also experience caring for all stages of life-energetic pups to older dogs with special needs. This has taught me how to stay flexible and attentive to each pet’s individual routine, needs, and personality. I genuinely enjoy the responsibility and rhythm of pet care and would communicate regularly with you to make sure your see that your pet feels right at home. My goal is to keep you pet happy and comfortable while maintaining their normal routine while you are away- no matter the type of pet or they’re stage in life. I create a calm, safe, and loving environment for pets in my home. I start by learning their normal routine from the owner and do my best to keep it consistent. This means pity breaks matching your normal, fresh water always available, and meals served on their regular schedule with any needed medications. During the day I make sure they get plenty of playtime — whether that’s friend fun in my backyard with my two pups, play with their favorite toys, or gentle training sessions. I also give lots of affection and quiet companionship so they don’t feel lonely. At night, I provide a comfortable sleeping area (crate if preferred) or free range indoors to pick their own comfy place and I always do a final potty break before bed. My home is fully pet-proofed, clean, and free of hazards. I’ve cared for several friends’ and family dogs overnight and for extended stays, including high-energy young dogs to calmer senior pups and even stage in between. I send regular updates and photos if desired so owners can relax knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
