Doggy Day Care in Tallahassee

“How could you top this? Ainla took care of our beagle Berry as if she (Berry) was her own. She gave us numerous updates throughout the day, properly balanced between play and rest time, and showed tremendous passion to accommodate Berry's needs. Ainla's neighborhood is safe, quiet, and she has a nice backyard for the dogs to play. After a single visit, my wife and I decided to stick with her. I strongly recommend Ainla for those who want their furry pals be in great hands.”

“Emily and Dom were amazing with Paris! She’s a 13 year old pup with separation anxiety and they were both so reassuring and patient with Paris. They sent me multiple updates with pictures. I would 100% recommend to anyone !”

“Diane was so welcoming and friendly. It was the first I had left my dog, Bijoux, with a stranger but she put me right at ease. Bijoux loved playing with Diane's son. Diane sent me some cute pictures of them playing. I am already looking at booking future dates for Bijoux with Diane.”

As I have stated above I have 3 dogs so my daily routine is basically feeding, walking and playing with them on a daily basis I have a backyard where they can run around and its a nice size field through the back gate where i can also run around and play with them but they sleep inside the house

About: I have a 1-year-old Yorkie, so I understand the energy and care young dogs need. I specialize in puppy training, senior care, and personalized attention. Pet care is a natural part of my routine, as I have a 1-year-old Yorkie. I prioritize daily walks, playtime, training, and consistent care to ensure pets feel loved and secure. In my home, I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and care tailored to their needs. In clients’ homes, I follow their routines closely, ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure, while offering services like walks, feeding, training, and medication administration as needed.

About: I love dogs! Since the age of 13 I have been fostering dogs and have raised a guide dog for The Guide Dog Foundation. I also worked as a Canine Care Technician for Dogs Inc. (formerly Southeastern Guide Dogs) for a year before starting my family. I have hands on experience with training dogs, administering medications, and day to day care of dogs and puppies 1 day old - 10+ years. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible and we are home most of the day. I have a one year old daughter that loves dogs and a labradoodle who has lots of energy to play! I care for your dog like they are mine! I have a fenced in yard, I love to take them on walks, play games in the yard, and cuddle (if they like that).

About: I stand out because I truly treat every pet like family. I have hands-on experience volunteering at animal shelters, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including nervous rescues and high-energy pups. I’m patient, gentle, and quick to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or just providing comfort, I bring calm, consistency, and affection. I also understand the importance of routines and know how to care for senior dogs who need a little extra love and attention. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities—and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and notes while you're away! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for throughout my week. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon play sessions, or cozy evening check-ins, I build my schedule around giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m naturally active and love being outside, so walking dogs or visiting pets is a part of my regular routine that never feels like work. Because I’ve volunteered at shelters, I’m used to working with different pet personalities and needs—from energetic puppies to older dogs who move at a slower pace. I’m flexible, dependable, and always happy to adjust my day to fit your pet’s routine so they feel safe and cared for even when you’re not home. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet comfortable by sticking closely to their usual routine—whether that means feeding schedules, walk times, or favorite spots to nap and play. I always make sure they feel safe and cared for by giving them lots of affection, positive attention, and a calm presence. I also keep your space tidy and treat your home with respect. If caring for pets in my own home, I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with cozy spots for rest, safe areas for play, and lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure they have everything they need—fresh water, clean feeding areas, bathroom breaks, and companionship. I send regular photo updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I focus on creating a loving, stress-free experience that feels just like home.

“Kayla did an amazing job with my pup. She was incredibly communicative and provided great care. I look forward to other times where she can watch my little guy.”

About: I am in a fellowship at Stanford, where I write from home full-time. I recently graduated from University of Miami, and before that I went to Emory where I also took care of pups! Dog-walking and general care provide a stress-free outlet from my writing and research, and a way to engage health and well-being beyond myself. As a member of a big family with many kids, taking care of pets is as natural for me as taking care of my nieces and nephews. Care and consideration are integral to all encounters with pets, and my experience with my nieces and nephews has taught me the necessary patience, attention, and care needed to attend to individuals’ prized family members. When dog walking, I see it as mutual exercise, and when pet sitting it’s mutual time spent. I am interested in extending my personal care to include those who cannot fully care for themselves. 🤗 I’m an artist, so taking care of Jazz and other pups is the main structure of my day. I plan my reading, writing, and screen time around our walks and play time. I rely on our routine for my own benefit as much as keeping a consistent balance for them, too. I believe in infinite grace and freedom. I will let the pets roam free, have their own time, play, and even cuddle when they like. I do have rules around rough playing, getting on furniture, or incessant barking or anything of the like. Most dogs have a way of showing you what the need, and I pride myself on being patient and understanding what exactly that is! Even if they do something I don’t like or that isn’t fair, I see how it can come from excitement or it may be out of their control or simply anxiety, so I also pride myself on setting clear but graceful boundaries that don’t intimidate or scold any pups. Every behavior has a reason!

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs, from small to large, young to old. I’ve managed medications for dogs. I can assist in basic puppy training skills. I use a positive reinforcement behavior management approach. I work full time as a teacher August-May. My weekends are typically free, and I have my summers off from teaching during the months of June and July. I have a fenced yard, a 2-year-old dog, and a 9 yr old foster child to keep your dog company. Your dog will need to be crate-trained or house-trained and will have free rein of the house and yard when I am home.

About: I'm basically your pet’s fun aunt—snacks, snuggles, and all the love! I’ve got experience with wild little puppies who think everything is a chew toy, and sweet seniors who just want a slow stroll and a cozy nap. I’m super in tune with each pet’s vibe, whether they need a play buddy or a calm companion. I keep things fun, safe, and stress-free—for both you and your pet. Plus, you’ll always get updates because I know being away from your furry BFF is tough. Think of me as the next best thing to you! Caring for pets fits into my routine naturally—I love it. Whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved. I’m happy to work around their schedule (and yours) to make things easy and comfortable for everyone. I am also a local Realtor, so i do majority of my work from my home office, so it allows more time for my pets to be out of crates and more play time! When I care for pets in my home, I create a calm, welcoming space where they can feel safe and relaxed. I stick to their usual routines as much as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddle breaks. I keep things cozy and make sure they get lots of attention, so they never feel alone. If I’m caring for pets in their own home, I treat their space with respect and follow their usual schedule closely to keep things familiar and comfortable. Whether it’s sticking to feeding times or favorite walking routes, I aim to make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible for both pets and owners. No matter where I’m caring for them, I focus on building trust and making sure every pet feels happy and secure.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over two years now! It has been the best job imaginable. I have a great house & yard for your furry friends. I work part time, but it is a remote position, so I am home pretty much all the time. I will be able to monitor your pets all hours of the day. I have a good yard for running & exploring, as well as a very dog-friendly inside. I am also more than willing to stay with your dog at your residence.

About: I have always had a love for animals ever since I was little. I can’t remember a time where I didn't have a pet. I focus on giving each pet personalized care, making sure they feel loved and looked after while you're away. My reliability and attention to detail mean you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Plus, I keep you updated, so you're always in the loop. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine, with dedicated daily time for walks, feeding, and play. That way they feel very loved and cared for. At home, I give my pets plenty of attention from walks to just playing and snuggling. In clients' homes, I follow their instructions closely, ensuring pets get the care they're used to while keeping owners updated.

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life. I have experience with dogs (of all sizes), cats, horses, and rabbits. I have managed animal rescues and worked at a vet clinic. I treat my animals as a part of my family and treat every clients pet like I would mine. I currently work from home and have reliable transportation so my schedule is very flexible to when I am able to provide service for you and your fur baby! I care for every animal with love and respect for the animal. I understand no two dogs are the same and with the years of experience I have I am good at reading body language of a dog to ensure the safety and comfort of your fur baby and myself.

About: I've taken care of many neighborhood cats and dogs since I was in middle school! My neighbors have continuously trusted in me to walk, feed, clean litter boxes, and socialize with their pets while they are away. I'm only enrolled in two classes at Florida State, so my schedule is very flexible with full availability most weekends! I don't have a solidified routine each week, so I'm more than willing to work with your schedule! I have a hamster named Pinto who I love so much!! I also live with two cats, Pickles and Emmy, who are so fun and playful! I believe spending quality time with our pets is a huge priority beyond the basic necessities of food, water, and a clean environment. I also spend my free time volunteering at a local dog rescue, Champ's Chance, where I walk and clean their kennels.

About: I currently live with my dog, Tully in a large apartment. We are situated across from the Chain of Parks in Downtown Tallahassee and a half-mile from Cascades Park. We are a friendly bunch who enjoy company. I always take my dog on long walks to the dog park on the other end of the Chain of Parks or around the trails of Cascades Park. Tully has been my best friend from when he was a puppy just 8 years ago. I am in Tallahassee 90% of the year and work less than a half-mile from my apartment. On occasions I return home during lunch and walk Tully. Tully is great with other dogs in our home and at other dog homes. We welcome you and your best friend!
