Doggy Day Care Travilah

“Karen just loves the pups and the pups love themselves some Karen. Her two dogs played with the pups the WHOLE day and both pups came home wiped out. And slept the rest of the night. She is on my short list of sitters to call to watch the pups”

“Huan took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She was caring, courteous, and very responsive. We will continue to use her service.”

“Yuzu loves to spend a day at Wenyan’s! Wenyan is great with dogs, and her detailed report card of our pup after a daycare always makes us smile. She is our go-to sitter.”

“Xiao took such great care of Mochi!”

“Ivan and his whole family took care of our little Oreo while he was with them. And their dog is wonderful and friendly. We got enough updates and pictures throughout the day. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave Oreo at Ivan’s in the future.”

“We have used Sophia twice now for daytime services and each time, our dog came home safe and happy. It's obvious Sophia has a lot of experience with pet care and gives me confidence in her ability to keep our dog happy. Sophia responds quickly to texts and provides pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sophia to any pet parent. In fact, we already have Sophia booked for a long term stay while we go on vacation.”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a young child. My Bruno (12 lb Biewer Terrier) and my regular daycare friends will keep your pup company - as well as my two attentive and careful children (12 & 9). We will love your pet as if he/she is our own! As a teenager, I raised cockatiels and I volunteered for the Museum of Life and Sciences in Durham, NC taking care of exotic animals of all types and sizes. Now that we have a yard, I've been living my dream of having my own dog (5+ years). It turns out I am great with dogs! • I limit boarding to smaller dog breeds with the rare exception for daycare when I know the family and larger dog plays well. • I work from home, so I will be with them all day. • I have a large fenced-in backyard, where they can get their zoomies out, and go for potty breaks as needed. I go outside a lot, which brings them outside more too (they like to be wherever I am!) • If your dog likes car rides, let me know, he/she can come along for short errands and pickups to and from school. • I can watch other kinds of pets, as long as you can easily transport them to me: Birds, bunnies, etc. using my “cat” rate on Rover. Request a cat boarding and let me know about your pet. • I do not watch cats. We have allergies to them To get started, we will have a meet & greet over video or in person, and book from there. Please let me know: 1. Does your pup has any behavioral quirks to be aware? For example, he won't go potty unless he's on a walk. 2. Any special feeding instructions? 3. Any favorite games? Looking forward to meeting you! I work from home regular 9-5 hours. I take frequent breaks before, during, and after work to feed, potty and exercise our fur buddies. I'm here to let them in and out of our large backyard for frequent breaks and play time. I have a large fenced backyard, with pickets to keep smaller breeds safe. I'm constantly checking that the gates are closed. They can sleep anywhere in our house, and most are comfortable doing so without a crate. When the weather is nice, I'll work on our deck to give them more outside time (because let's face it... these velcro sweeties want to be wherever I am!)

About: I am currently only accepting hypoallergenic dogs for boarding and doggy daycare! These include but are not limited to: Bichon, Poodles (or any doodle), Yorkies, Maltese, and Schnauzer. I own two dogs, one is a young Miniature Goldendoodle that I have had since she was a couple of months old, and the other is a senior Toy Poodle that I have had since she was 5 years old. I have 10 years of experience caring for animals and always research how to best care for the animal in question. I have 2 years of experience with professional pet sitting. I am currently a student living at home, so I have plenty of time to care for pets, especially since I care for my own. I am available most of the week, every week. My yard is unfenced; however, we do have a chicken-wire fence in the backyard for my own dog, who has plenty of space to run around and play. We have lots of toys for your fur baby, and a kind and playful dog to keep your fur baby company. I can crate small dogs, but do not have large enough crates for large or medium dogs. If caring for your pet at your home, I can ensure your fur baby gets lots of playtime and walks.

“She is always nice and kind, she provided pictures and update. Im so glad she takes care of my dog twice. I recommend her a 1000 time!! Thank you!”

About: Hi, I'm from Colombia. I love animals, especially dogs and cats. I've had pets all my life, so I know how important and valuable they are to us. With me you'll find an excellent caregiver; I love playing with them, taking them for walks, feeding them. You can fully trust me to leave your four-legged friend. I have full-time availability every day of the week, including weekends. Since I don't have other work commitments right now, my schedule is incredibly flexible. I can easily accommodate your pet's specific feeding, walking, and playtime routines at any time. When staying at your home, I strictly follow your rules and routines to keep your pet comfortable. I ensure all doors and gates are securely locked, maintain a clean space, and provide regular photo updates so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away.

“Elena was kind and attentive with Daisy. I’m grateful to have found her and her husband, and I’ll gladly reach out to them again.”

About: Hi!! I’m Michele and I live in a townhouse community in North Potomac/Gaithersburg, adjacent to the Kentlands. I have owned rescue dogs for 30 years, and I have always chosen dogs that are “hard to adopt” due to having a traumatic history, having accompanying anxiety or other behavioral challenges, and/or being a wrongly stigmatized breed. All of my dogs have been mixed breeds — a Doberman mix, a Shepherd mix, a Rottweiler mix, a Pitbull mix, a Mini Pin mix, and a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix. I have also been helping my daughter over the past two years with her growing petsitting business. I have spent much of my career as a consulting writer and communications specialist in the global health and international development field, and have mostly worked from home. Due to recent changes in the federal government, most U.S.-based professionals in this field lost employment in 2025, and I am taking the opportunity to branch into more entrepreneurial paths that speak to my other personal passions. I always make sure my dogs (and yours!) have plenty of exercise, water, and hugs! And of course food and any medications according to your exact instructions. When I walk dogs, I am conscious of allowing them to have ample time to sniff and explore, as this gives them the mental exercise they need and tires them out for good naps during the day. I also love to give dogs play time in fenced yard/areas with any balls/toys they enjoy. I am available for walks at any time of the day, as well as housesitting in your home (or my home if you prefer!) when you are away! I am also happy to care for cats and any other pets. Thanks so much for considering me, and I hope to meet you and your best friend(s) soon! I’m currently rebuilding my career from scratch and have plenty of time for pet care! The work paths that I am building will all be mostly work-from-home. I will provide long and short walks, additional exercise in fenced areas, water, food, and medications! I am forever a dog-on-the-furniture/bed person but will happily respect your wishes if you prefer not to allow that. I will also provide crate training if desired! I currently do not have dogs living with me full time, but my daughter has two dogs and can bring them to my house anytime if you would like some social time built in.

“Sriju is a very kind person. She is attentive to my dog, Daisy, when she stays for the day. Daisy loves staying with her. I will continue to keep bringing my dog to stay with Sriju🐶🥰”

“Always a feast time with Gracie! She loves piper and sends cute pics! Will be using again and again! Thank you!”

About: I provide calm, reliable, and loving care that helps dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they get individualized care, not a one-size-fits-all approach. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals. I’m especially good at creating a low-stress environment for shy dogs, energetic dogs, and dogs who need extra reassurance. I can also help with basic puppy routines, reinforce good habits, and provide gentle senior care with extra patience and attention. I’m responsible, communicative, and committed to keeping pet parents updated so they always know their dog is in good hands. My goal is to make each dog feel happy, safe, and cared for like family. I have flexible work from home schedule. I am available during the day, nights and weekends. Also, during major Holidays or any other major events. I provide care in my home only, where pets can stay in a calm, safe, and supervised environment. I make sure they have a comfortable space, regular attention, and a consistent routine that matches their normal feeding, walking, and rest schedule as closely as possible.

About: I have over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Over the past 7 years, I’ve also volunteered with rescue organizations, fostering puppies as young as 1–2 weeks old. This has involved full-time care- feeding, socialization, basic training, and monitoring their health - until they are ready for their forever homes. Because I’ve cared for so many dogs at different stages of life, I’m very attentive to routines, diet needs, medical instructions, and behavior changes. I’m calm, patient, and confident handling shy, energetic, or anxious dogs, and I make sure each pet feels secure and comfortable from the moment they arrive. Safety and communication are extremely important to me. I follow owners’ instructions closely, maintain a clean and structured environment, and provide regular updates so you always know how your dog is doing. Whether it's a puppy, an adult dog, or a senior with special needs, I’m committed to giving every animal the same level of care and consistency I give my own. My wife (a full-time homemaker) and I ensure that your furry family member is never left alone while staying with us. One of us is always home, providing constant supervision, comfort, and companionship throughout their visit. Your dog will enjoy a fully fenced, secure play area and 2–3 walks per day. We live on 2 acres of land with plenty of open space for safe exploration and exercise, along with an 11,000 sq. ft. home that provides ample room for your pet to relax and feel comfortable.

“Natalia was amazing! This was the first time we left our puppy with anyone. She connected immediately with him and he was happy to see her each morning. Highly recommend!”

“Rong took wonderful care of my dog and made me feel completely at ease. She sent me regular photo updates, which I really appreciated. I’m so grateful for the loving and attentive care—highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for more than 35 since I was a kid. All my family family members love dogs. We have miniature schnauzer. She is very friendly and can gets along well with other dogs. You can rest assured that your dog will be treated like a family member of ours. We live in a walkable neighborhood with close access to the park. Also I have a large backyard. I can take your dog for a walk easily and provide your dog with a safe and happy environment. Looking forward to meeting your doggie! I am home all day and can provide your loved once with companionship and care. I get up early and chill with them in the evening. I have a large fenced backyard and a roomy house. I love playing with them and taking them for walks on shady sidewalks and trails. I don’t have cages in my house.

“Thank you Monika for caring for our four-legged members of our family! He looked as if he had a great time and I loved all the pics you sent! You made being away from him easy and non-worriesome.”
