Doggy Day Care Suffolk

“Melody is quick in communication and my dog was well cared for. We went to her for drop-in care due to my work schedule changing. I’m happy I found her.”

About: I’ve taken care of my dog and my aunt’s dog since I was nine. I’m twenty now and both of my fur babies are still kicking, barking, and happy. I’ve always loved animals, even helping to rescue some when I was little such as these two baby ducks and other little birdies and frogs too. In school, my teacher had a pet chameleon and turtle and I always was excited to help feed them. I actually started majoring in Biology at first in college to be a veterinarian or zoologist. I have a different path now to help children but I still have a passion for pets and other beautiful creatures of this Earth. I will take care of your fur babies just like I did mine and love them just as much. I am a college student as mentioned before but I have all online classes this upcoming Fall semester and I live on campus but can be at home when needed for boarding. I live in Suffolk, Virginia and do my boarding and doggy daycare there. My location says Norfolk but that’s only for house sits and drop ins and walking. I go to Old Dominion University so I can take business there in nearby area that is within 60 minutes of walking distance as I do not have a car or drive and rely on family and my boyfriend and friends for transportation. I do rely on my mother, brother or friends for transportation but they are willing to help and be available as needed. Please give me a chance and you won’t regret it. :) I make sure the pets first get to know me, smell me, and recognize me to be comfortable with me. Then, I interact with them more by playing with them and giving them rubs and cuddles so they can feel more connected and comfortable. Then, definitely make sure they eat and drink the right food for their health and nourishment. Then, walk them so they can do their business and get exercise and always make sure they have a leash on. Next, make sure they are groomed and cleaned well and freshen up from the outdoors. Then spend more time with them until our fun is over and they are returned with their beloved owners. I will have a whole day well planned and you and your fur babies will appreciate it. :)

About: What sets me apart is the presence and care I bring to every interaction. With 15+ years of hands-on experience across a wide range of animals—dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs—I’m not just pet sitting, I’m attuning. I notice the little things: a shift in behavior, a need for extra cuddles, or when it’s time to give space. My calm, loving energy helps animals feel safe and understood. I don’t rush through visits—I show up fully, giving your pet the same patience and warmth I give my own. As a homeschool mom with a flexible schedule and a peaceful home environment, pet sitting fits naturally into my life. I’m home most of the day, which means your pet gets consistent attention, companionship, and care—not just quick check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and it brings joy and balance to our rhythm at home. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or extended stays, I have the time, space, and heart to give your pet the presence they deserve. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my approach is rooted in calm, attentive, and loving presence. In my home, they’ll enjoy a relaxed, pet-friendly environment with plenty of snuggles, play, and quiet time—whatever makes them feel safe and happy. If I’m coming to you, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, respecting their space and energy. I treat every animal like family and always follow your instructions with care and attention to detail. We have a fenced in yard, and plenty of walkable sidewalks.

About: Hey there! I'm a proud military member and animal shelter volunteer with 10+ years of experience caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even the little critters! From playful puppies to sweet seniors, I’ve got the skills to handle it all. Need meds given or special diets followed? No problem! I’m all about keeping your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. I’m big on communication, so you’ll always know how your fur-babies are doing. With me, it’s not just pet sitting—it’s personalized, loving care that gives you total peace of mind. Let’s make sure your pets have a tail-wagging good time while you’re away! Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I dedicate specific times for walks, feedings, playtime, and any special needs such as administering medications or training sessions. I schedule my work and personal activities around my pet care responsibilities, ensuring that each pet receives consistent and attentive care. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various needs, whether it's daily visits, overnight stays, or extended care. This dedication ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, safe, and well-attended to throughout the week. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets by providing a designated area with comfortable bedding, toys, and plenty of space to roam. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime, ensuring each pet feels at home. I also have a secure backyard for supervised outdoor activities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual routine. I ensure their environment is clean, provide fresh food and water, and engage in regular play and exercise. I also send daily updates and photos to keep owners informed about their pet’s well-being. My goal is to provide personalized, attentive care that meets each pet’s specific needs, whether at my home or theirs.

“Cassandra did a amazing job with my one year old Husky for Doggy Day Care , she will keep you updated with everything by sending you pictures of your dog having fun , and no doubt she did a amazing job.!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I have over 12 years of pet-care experience and am a pet parent myself to three Chihuahuas, including a senior dog. Because of this, I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets can need. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet, relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home full-time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, and plenty of love and cuddles. 🐾❤️ Because I’m home most of the day, your pet can have someone nearby rather than being left alone for long periods. I truly enjoy having animals around and love making them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their families are away. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and the routine their family has established. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, meals, and lots of love. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and basic medication care when needed. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, schedule, and specific needs before their family leaves. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

About: Ever since I was young animals have played a huge role in my life. From my first dog to the mini zoo I have today. I am familiar with many breeds of dogs and cats as well as reptiles and recognize each one has its own characteristics and personality. Whether it's a walk, play time, or just someone to keep your pet company, I will appreciate and enjoy my time with them. I am a stay at home father of two. I am available most days. I have been working with pets for the past 4 years M-F with the occasional weekend visits. I love what I do and I take pride in my ability to befriend all pets. I believe each and every person has a responsibility, when they take on a pet, to give it the best life with a loving owner. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 lizards, 2 turtles, and 4 fish who all get attention suited to their needs and desires while also being attentive to proper and healthy care.

About: I have fostered and owned numerous dogs and cats. I have cared for puppies, sick and elderly dogs. So if there are any dietary restrictions, medications or specific training that needs to be inforced I am your gal. For all of the nervous pet parents don't worry I will be sending lots of pictures and videos so you will never go a day without knowing your fur friend is in great care. It is my main goal that your four-legged family member has the best time at my house and that you are as carefree as possible. My goal is to always remain as flexible as possible and to work around the schedules of my pet families! I have structured my lifestyle to remain as flexible as possible. I have invested time and care into my home and pet to make it a safe and welcoming environment at all times. I always follow the needs and requirements of my pet families to ensure continuity of care.

“Kobie was GREAT with my baby! I loved getting a video of him settling in within 20 minutes of dropping him off at doggy day care. Jax had a great time with Kobie’s dogs and he was well taken care of!”

“Samantha was excellent! We had a last-minute need for doggy daycare with only about two hours’ notice, and she was incredibly accommodating and helpful. She took great care of both of our dogs, Orion and Luna. Orion can be anxious in new situations, so it was especially nice to see that he seemed comfortable and relaxed with her. Both dogs came home happy, which says a lot! We really appreciated her flexibility and the great care she gave them. We would definitely book with her again!”

About: I used to have another rover account and dog watching was my full time job for about 3 years. I quit for a little bit but now I am a stay at home mom and have a 4 1/2 year old golden who loves everyone and just wants some friends to play with. I am a stay at home mom and have a dog of my own so adding a few more never hurts. My golden daisy is my child she is so spoiled and if you trust me with your dog they will be too. She is full of energy and loves all dogs and people haha. She does not know what stranger danger is. I have a huge fenced in back yard. I am also able to split up my house to have dogs in separate areas when they need a break from each other. This will be my full time job aside from being a mom so I am always home.

“Devon was very helpful watching Ranger at the last minute.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. My neighbors, friends and family have relied in me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I'm working from home which makes it a lot easier for me to board fur babies at my house. I will be able to let them go potty easily as well. I have a fenced backyard and friendly dogs to keep your pet's company. I can also easily crate your dog if need be. I have crates with different sizes from small to XL.

About: Hi! I've been lucky to have had dogs in my life for over 20 years, and I can't imagine life without them. I don't have a fenced yard, but I make up for it with plenty of walks around the neighborhood and fun trips to the park or the beach. At home, I've got lots of cozy spots for your furry friend to curl up, plus belly rubs and snuggles on demand. I'll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated with lots of photos and notes so you can relax while you're away. I work from home most of the week, which means plenty of time for cuddle breaks and attention throughout the day. I'm happy to take dogs on multiple walks and give them lots of love between work tasks. I don't have a fenced yard, but I live in a walkable neighborhood and love taking dogs out for regular walks. Pets are always welcome on the furniture, and they'll have free range of the house while I am at home. For everyone's comfort and safety, a meet and greet is required before confirming a reservation.

About: From growing up around cats and dogs to working as a supervisor at a dog daycare, I’m confident that your pet will be in good hands with me. I have dogs of my own who are all very socialized, experience with old dogs too. Medication management for dogs is second nature to me so you won’t have to worry about any missing carprofen doses. Just reach out to me and I’ll see when I what works. I have a lot of time on my hands so just communicate :) All my dogs get wet food, dental treats, joint supplement, the works. They’re spoiled lol they have lots of dog beds and they can get on whatever furniture they want. I do my best to make sure my dogs get the life they deserve. I also take them to the dog park pretty often so they’re socialized with strangers and other dogs well.

“First time leaving my dog at a sitter that Samba was not familiar with. Elisabeth did a great job in caring for my “crazy” high energy dog. Samba came back home happy! I can’t thank Elisabeth enough for taking such good care of her. I will definitely book again!”

Abigail L.

“Amazing caregiver! Aurélie was attentive and caring and communicative which made leaving my dog in her care, effortless. She is a genuine, loving sitter and I won’t hesitate to use her again nor should anyone else who wants the best for their dog!”
