Doggy Day Care In Strawberry Manor

“Geisel was great and kind with our puppy and sent us pictures and updates so we did not worry about her while we were out! Will book with her again.”

About: I started volunteering at the Antioch Animal Shelter in the 4th grade. Since then I have volunteered at numerous shelters and rescues, including the emergency animal shelter in Oroville after the Camp Fire. I'm Disaster Animal Rescue Team (D.A.R.T.) trained, animal CPR and first aid certified, and have years of TNR experience. I have had many exotics as pets, including a reef tank at one time. I have no issue feeding crickets and worms, but I can't feed snakes rodents. I'm a lifelong vegetarian, so that would traumatize me. Lol. I also love rodents, and currently have 2 rescue guinea pigs. Animal care and nutrition are a passion of mine. I'm also an expert teeth brusher! I brush my cats and dogs teeth every night and some of my pet sits as well. I'm very experienced giving medication, even pills to cats and my recently adopted cat Ricky is diabetic. Two of my regular cats I sit take meds, and one gets insulin injections, so I'm very comfortable with both and also know how to check blood glucose. Animals are allowed on the furniture in my home, even the bed. A couple of dogs I regularly sit sleep in the bed with me and my dogs. I treat other people's furbabies the way I would want my furbabies treated. I'm a helicopter pet parent so I totally understand how hard it is to trust someone with the ones you love. If I ever thought something was wrong with your pet I would notify you asap, and I have no issue taking an animal to the vet. I have a rescue dog who has occasional seizures and a rescue kitty with kidney disease that I give sub-q fluids to every day, so I am very comfortable with special needs animals. I'm pretty OCD when it comes to pet care. I actually have a pet thermometer and carry a microchip reader in my truck with an extra leash. You'd be surprised how many times I've used that chip reader! Being a helicopter pet parent I NEVER EVER leave an animal outside alone, not even in my fenced in yard. I don't take chances. I'm also obsessively clean, so your litter box will not be a hot mess when you return, and if your dog uses a potty pad no problem. I also have waterproof vinyl plank flooring so accidents and kitty puke is easy to clean up. :-D. When I board animals it is very much mi casa esu casa! I'm also more than happy to water plants when I do drop-ins as well, since I have them myself and am also a gardener. :-) I work from home 3 days a week and the other 2 days I come home for lunch since the office is only 2.5 miles from my house. I'm home most weekends as well. I follow the care instructions to the letter. If your pup requires a crate it must be brought with them, since mine are not crated. I am comfortable giving medication and supplements, measuring food, following a raw food diet, feeding exotics, etc. I'm also comfortable grooming for an extra fee, but will never ignore a mat in their fur or charge extra for daily grooming like toothbrushing.

“Alexxa was great! She took very good care of our girl and was very communicative throughout Sophie’s stay. Would absolutely recommend!”

About: I am a longtime cat and dog lover with over 25 years experience in caring for pets. I also have experience working in healthcare and love to care for senior pets, puppies, kittens and pets of all ages and sizes. I am recently retired from my 30 plus years in Healthcare and am looking forward to my dream job of providing your fur babies care in my loving home. I have a fenced yard with a nearby park in Woodlake neighborhood for outdoor fun. But most days we will be cuddling on the couch.

“Tanisha was fantastic with my dog Morty. My dog is reactive and nervous around new dogs, and she was willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he would feel comfortable with her and her dog. We did a meet and greet, followed by a test overnight board and test daycare. It was incredible to see how well my dog settled in with her. You can tell she cares a lot about the dogs she watches. I got a lot of pictures and videos of my dog while he was with Tanisha (more than I've ever gotten from a sitter). I highly recommend Tanisha!”

“Probably should warn people more of the level of anxiety he can get, were generally never out of site with one another and very rarely does He get left behind. Thanks for your time, there was only so much you could do”

About: Senior care of my Luna dog with kidney failure and five years volunteering at Front Street Animal Shelter. My dog Sugar is a foster fail. I Iprovide pet care for my two dogs on a daily basis and will provide are for the dogs I watch according to owners instructions. I want my clients dog to feel as comfortable as they do at home providing love and care. I have a fenced in yard back and front. There are no children living in my house so my home is peaceful and quiet.

“Matt was absolutely fantastic Very responsive and accommodating. Professional and friendly. Highly recommended Gerty & Wally we’re excited to play with Matt and his adorable dog Kobe. They were both happily exhausted when I picked them up. We will definitely rebook for future needs”

“Happy I found Martha to take care of Niko. She responds in a timely manner & very flexible with my last minute requests. She ask all the important questions to assure she provides the best care for your fur-child. My shy Niko and her sweet pup Misty got along really well hanging out for the first time. Niko enjoyed his stay with Martha & her family!”

About: • Experience with puppies and high-energy breeds • Potty training consistency and routine building • Comfortable with small to medium dogs • Can follow feeding schedules and medication instructions • Skilled with leash walking and structured outdoor time • Familiar with dog park etiquette and socialization Pet care is part of my daily routine, not an afterthought. I structure my schedule around the dogs in my care to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. On a typical day, dogs can expect: • Morning potty break and walk • Structured playtime and enrichment • Supervised social time if comfortable with other dogs • Midday check-ins and affection • Afternoon rest and downtime • Evening walk and wind-down routine

“Kristen was amazing!! She took my last minute request for day care and took very good care of my dog Mochi. She was very nice and responsive, thoughtful of the way she introduced mochi to her dogs, and even proactively sent me tons of cute photos of Mochi. Would recommend !!”

“Our pup comes home not only happy and tired but she learns a lot from being at Nellys! We can see the results of the passive training she gets with Nelly!”

Amanda B.

“Our pup had a blast with Jennifer! He immediately knew he was in a fun and safe place when he arrived. Not only got a ton of playtime, but came back tired and well behaved. We will be booking with Jennifer again!”

Miguel & Felicia Z.

“Julie was welcoming in our meet and great. She showed me her doggycare area and told me details about taking care of dogs. There seems to be a lot, but they're all behaving reasonably well. I wasn't quite sure my pug would do well, but he fit in just fine. Her other caretaker, Diante (sp?) was also welcoming. Overall, a great daycare.”

Cy C.

“I highly recommend Joel! My old girl was calm and happy after her day stay. Extremely considerate of Lola’s needs. She’s a picky pup and can be stressed by strangers, but not with Joel. Didn’t have to worry about her safety or well-being. A great help and huge relief.”

“Potato had a great time with Nelly and her family! Nelly was very patient and gentle with my anxious little guy, and Potato loved playing with Nelly’s son. Potato will definitely be back for more visits 😊”
