Doggy Day Care in Tillson

“Victoria is wonderful and our 5 month old pup loves her!! We have booked Victoria for walks as well as daycare. Each time she has been so accommodating and kept us well informed on how our Monte was doing. So happy to have found her and looking forward to many more walks in the future with her!!”

“Kery is super nice, has a great space for hosting my pup, great communication, and the wonderful experience. I highly recommend. The minute my boy got there he went right to her and didn't even look back for me when I started the car and left. That says a lot.”

“Kayli was a ray of sunshine and took excellent care of our 3 yo mini-poodle. She made Papoula feel right at home. She took care in introducing her to other dogs in her home. Papoula is nervous with bigger dogs, and under Kayli's attentive care, she made friends with dogs big and small, and had a blast. Kayli was communicative and clear, and very kind, to pup and to people! Her doggy day care featurs a securely fenced in yard and lots of space to run around. And a pup-friendly indoor space was.great for naptime. We cannot rave enough and Kayli will be our go-to in future visits to the area. A+++ experience!”

“Rebecca did an awesome job with my dog! He has anxious tendencies and yet was calm and relaxed when I picked him up from spending the day with her. I would definitely entrust him with her again in a heartbeat if I ever find myself in this area again!”

“Hi there Rover Gabe is a man I know for almost 20 years who has had dogs his whole life and loves and takes care of them like they are his children.My dogs always gravitated toward him as well. It is a home where dogs are always welcome and I know he dog sits for people when they travel as I was staying with him and his wife and we had a new little dog visiting. They are given as much love and attention as his own pups. They alos just adopted 2 more dogs so now he has 3 dogs that he cares for. and are part of his family I would feel totally confident having Gabe watch and care for my dog!!! Lucky doggie!!”

“Kimberly was fantastic. Our pup spent the entire day with her while we golfed and had a birthday dinner. Very appreciative of her and will reach out again if we are in the area. Highly recommend!”

“My Murph deals with separation anxiety and I have been looking for someone local for when I need a sitter. Chastity was understanding, and while Murph was nervous, he definitely played himself out and has a relaxing evening after I picked him up. Thanks so much!”

“Amanda is a true dog lover, who has experience with hosting shelter dogs prior to their adoption. She is sensitive, kind, patient, and responsible. She has shared her love for dogs with myself and many others, proudly showing pictures of dogs she has babysat or hosted. She would be my first pick to look after any pet, and I have no doubt she'll be a great sitter to your pup.”

About: I don’t remember a time in my life I wasn’t around animals. From growing up with dogs and cats, to volunteering at the SPCA, to then working professionally with animals (as both a sitter and a kennel technician at multiple kennels), I have a wide range of experience when it comes to different temperaments and breeds. In addition to my experience as a kennel technician, I’ve also gained experience through a dog training internship at a training and breeding facility. All of this paired with my studies in psychology and narrative, and all the ways they intertwine, comes together with my own dog training, where I utilize relationship-based training to foster a positive, working dog/human relationship. If you need help training your puppy (or adult dog), please let me know! I’d be happy to discuss rates for private sessions, board and trains, and/or stay and trains (which are similar to a board and train, but your dog gets to stay at home and you get to be more involved!). I am a full-time pet sitter and dog trainer. When I’m not with clients’ pets, I’m with my own two dogs and two cats - training, playing, or relaxing. I also keep several plants, and have kept Betta fish and Hermit Crabs in the past, so should you need help with any other plants or animals while you’re away I’m happy to discuss that as well. I offer free meet and greets, approximately 30 minutes long, as I prefer meeting owners and their pets prior to any drop-ins or walks for the comfort of everyone involved. For training inquiries, I offer complimentary 45min consultations to ensure it’s a good fit before committing. I am knowledgeable about dog and cat body language, so I can and will adapt to the pets needs based on what their behavior is telling me in an effort to ensure their comfort and happiness. You can expect a detailed update at the very end of each visit, session, or day, including multiple photos. Boarding dogs will be boarded overnight (~11pm-8am) as well as 2-3 times during the day for 2-6 hours at a time in an area separate from the main area of the house. Daytime crating applies to daycare pups as well. All dogs get a minimum of 3-4 short walks per day, for ample opportunity to relieve themselves as well as enjoy the outdoors however they wish (sniffing around, sunbathing, playing, etc.). Dogs who want/need more excessive will get 1-2 longer walks per day in addition to 3 shorter walks. They also get lots of time to free roam in the boarding area and if they wish to interact with my Lab or other dogs who may be here, they can at that time. (NOTE: If your dog is not comfortable in a crate, I will not be able to board them. I require all dogs in my care be crate trained and will utilize crates for safety purposes. This is non-negotiable.)

About: I began my dog sitting adventure 6 years ago while in graduate school in London where I provided dog boarding, doggy daycare, and house sitting. In addition to dog sitting, I run a retreat and events business from my home. I love having a companion and taking walks during my workday. I find peace and pleasure outside, especially by water. I am available for house sitting, boarding, and doggy day care. I can care for dogs that enjoy a love walk as well as the elderly who mostly want to cuddle and rest. Extremely high energy dogs that need to play most of the day are a bit outside my scope but I have a special touch with dogs who experience anxiety. Below are some non-negotiables for working with me: 1. House trained pups only please! 2. For new clients, I require an in-person meet & greet. I’m unable to accept bookings without them! 3. As a means of maintaining the energy in my home, no pet parents may come inside. Meet & greets happen on my porch or in my fenced in backyard and drop offs happen on my porch only. 4. All communication happens in the Rover app. I’m happy to touch base and send a few photos here but I don’t give out my personal phone number. If these details feel aligned with you, please include this emoji: 🐾 in your message so I know you agree to the above! I work full-time from home. I'm able to accommodate a dog from my home or go to a doggie's clean home as long as there is reliable and efficient wifi. Walking during the day is great for me too! I also have experience with dogs who would rather stick close to home. I have a fenced-in yard for doggies to play. I'm comfortable with dogs sleeping in my bed, as well. In my home, I require a house-trained dog that I can take outside for potty breaks but can accommodate a dog who uses pee pee pads or otherwise inside their home.

“Hila hosted Millie for a day and Millie had a great time. We are so happy Hila was available. Hila was also communicative and flexible with us. Millie Enjoyed playing with Hila’s dog Ruby too.”

“Everything went perfectly well starting with communication, photo&text updates and ending with picking up our little Luna from Elisa. Luna was the only dog at the day care and Elisa followed Luna’s daily routine so thoroughly - she’s such a caring and gentle person, and so reliable too; much appreciated! We highly recommend her services! :)”

“Nardia took great care of Lu. Very nice person, responsible, mature, great communication. Thank you so much!”

“This is our 3rd time using Eleanor for Sparky’s care. And we already have her scheduled again for a week in March. She continues to exceed our expectations. She has a genuine interest in Sparky and they both adore each other. We consider ourselves lucky to have made this connection with Eleanor.”

“Margie was great. Helped us out with very little notice. Was flexible with our schedule and took great care of our lab. Would highly recommend.”

“Helen was wonderful with our very anxious rescue dog. I rarely leave him but he came home happy and I would gladly work with Helen again as a sitter!”

“Madison took great care of shaggy!”

“Amazing caretaker! I leave my three dogs with her for days and there is never a problem!! She is wonderful, kind, giving, attentive and a professional dog owner and lover. We love Kim and her wonderful love for animals!! More people like Kim!”

“The sweetest most nurturing sitter! She will love your fur Angel like her own. A trustworthy friend who will go above and beyond to ensure your baby is well-cared for and safe.”

“Cortny took awesome care of our high-energy, dog-reactive pup and her house was a great place for the dog to romp around. I have no doubt they had a great time! I'll absolutely book Cortny again, and I recommended her to some friends, as well!”
