Doggy Day Care in Theodore

“I highly recommend Michael to anyone that wants someone that will spend quality time with your pup(s) while you are away. This was my first time to use Rover for Marly & Charmin, and I’m so glad I found Michael!! I signed up hoping to find someone that would show them lots of attention when I’m out of town. I am that dog mom that has as much separation anxiety, as my dogs usually do when I leave them. When I left them at Michael’s, I knew they had already made a new friend. Michael sent me several pics through the stay and it was obvious that both pups had already made themselves right at home. This was the first time in 10 years, I felt completely comfortable that they were ok while I was away. When I arrived to pick them up, they were not anxious to leave and kept going back to Michael to be petted. Michael will be my go-to person from now on for doggy day care or boarding when I’m away from home.”

About: Every pup needs a Step-Ma. Someone he/she can call when no one is around. Accompanied with 50 years of motherly, animal-loving experiences - meet a near retired, empty-nester looking for a way to fulfill a nurturing need now that all the children and animals have moved into their own home. Special skills include an ability to go on brisk walks around the neighborhood with your pup, add-on a talent of novice dog-training skills acquired from being raised by a dog whisperer mom, and fun time with tennis balls and frisbees. I currently work part-time throughout the week, but make my own schedule a week in advance. I am available most days from the early mornings til 11 AM. My works shifts are only 3 hours at a time, so I will be able to spend much needed time with your fur-baby when visiting/boarding and hanging out at my home. I have a fenced yard with a nice back deck if your pet likes to lounge outside. There are no other dogs here, just a couple of yard cats that patrol the perimeter and stay far away from dogs. I have a 2-story home, if your pup is like my son's boxer, Riley - she enjoys running up and down the stairs to play tag. There's soft furniture available for cozying up when spending the night, and a fireplace for the wintertime to snuggle up to after a brisk run in the cold night air. There's other fun stuff, too, like tennis balls, stuffed animals, bubbles, and water sprinklers. And, of course, treats.

About: We are a recently retired couple with 50 years combined experience raising children with a variety of pets. Now we have a loving, playful rescue dog that gets our full time attention. We are home all the time. We also engage and play with our pets all the time. We have plenty of toys to keep them amused too. Our large back yard is fully fenced and safe and clean at all times. We constantly clean up debris. We monitor playtime and meals to make sure they are safe at all times.

“She is so kind and friendly and was very patient with our big old, but hesitant, Haldi. I appreciate her so much. She was very easy to contact and went over the extra mile to make our stubborn but sweet girl feel at home!”

“I have a separation anxiety rescued German shepherd. I picked Nikki because she works from home. To find out that she very familiar and loves the breed. I have used Nikki twice for doggie daycare to get Lady use to be with someone else for an upcoming vacation. I have no doubt Nikki will take care of my needy dog. She takes her responsibilities to heart. ❤️”

About: Big dog lovers and would love to help you with your sitting needs from overnight care in my home or yours, daily dog walking services, and daily check in’s. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to watch your doggies. I can do drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight care in my home, house-sitting, or daily daycare. I am able to drop in to walk, feed, and play with your pet during the early mornings and evenings. Typically available everyday of the week.

About: I've had pets my entire life. I have experience with dogs, cats, snakes, lizards and other small animals. I can administer medicine to friendly animals, and cleanliness, kindness and communication are my priorities. I am currently a full-time online graduate student and am therefore usually very flexible. My daily routine involves taking my child to and from school and sports. For in-home boarding, I have a fenced yard and a separate indoor/outdoor space for my own kitties to remain separate from your pet. Small dogs can enjoy hanging with me and/or playing outside during the day. I'm always up for lap cuddles! I prefer to crate the dog during night-time hours, from about 10pm until 6:30am.

About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their dogs while they were away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for at all times. I am available weekdays after 2:40 PM and have flexible availability on weekends. I make it a priority to give pets the time, attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Please note that I am currently unavailable on holidays. I always prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, routines, medications, walks, and playtime to ensure pets remain comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of attention I would give my own animals.

“Jupiter had a great time and Caitlin came through on a very short notice. Easy drop off and pick up, great communication throughout, and I received plenty of photos. Jupiter had a walk, plenty of exercise and in general it was a great stay.”

Paul N.

“Jen was fantastic with Olive! He loved playing with her dogs and swimming. He was absolutely exhausted that evening and the next day from all the fun (which is no small feat for a working cocker!). Jen was super responsive and gave great updates throughout the day! We will definitely be sending Olive to stay/play with Jen again!”

About: I’m an animal lover who’s happiest when I’m outside walking, running, or biking and I love having a furry buddy join me for the adventure. I grew up with four dogs, so barking, potty breaks, and a little (okay, a lot of) dog hair are just part of life for me. From a young age, I learned how to keep pups happy, safe, and entertained, and that’s stuck with me ever since. Your dog’s needs always come first with me whether that’s playtime, snuggles, or just a nice chill nap in the sun. I’ve got a soft spot for every kind of dog, even the grumpy ones, and I’ll never say no to a good cuddle session. At home, I have three super sweet Ragdoll cats who love dogs (seriously - they’re like dogs in cat form). I’ve also got a big fenced-in backyard that’s perfect for running around. Since I work from home, your pup will have company all day and can hang out inside or outside whenever they want. Lots of playtime, lots of love, and lots of tail wags. That’s what I’m all about. I work from home, so I’m around all day which means your pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor breaks! Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I’ve got a pretty flexible schedule and can easily fit in long walks, snuggle breaks, or just some good company while I work. Your dog’s safety always comes first. I’ll never make a decision about your pet without checking in with you first, and I’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, or whatever helps you feel at ease. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I want you to feel totally comfortable knowing they’re in good hands.
