About: Hello! My name is Audrey, and I'm 29 years old. I've spent over five years working at a doggy daycare, a passion that began long before I was officially hired. My parents opened this daycare in the mid 2000s, so I was fortunate enough to be able to come around and help out, or just spend time with the dogs throughout my teen years. From this I was able to gain invaluable hands-on experience with a variety of dogs. My lifelong experience with both dogs and cats ensures that I can provide top-notch care for your furry friends. During my time at the daycare, I encountered dogs of all energy levels, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. From puppies to senior dogs, and from calm to highly anxious pets. I'm skilled in administering medication, feeding, and monitoring for any unusual behavior. Having cared for hundreds of pets, each with their unique personalities and needs, I am dedicated to meeting and exceeding your expectations. I look forward to meeting and caring for more wonderful pets! I am currently working remotely which allows me the the flexibility to go wherever needed as well as be home with the animals for a majority of the day. This means I am able to give potty breaks or food/medication any time of day. However, some week days I play sports in the afternoons. This would only be for an hour or 2 at most, generally between 6-9. I feel very confident in my ability to make sure your pets are safe during my visits! Working with dogs for many years, I have a good sense of what to watch for and how to make sure your animals are happy and healthy. I am constantly aware of mine and your animals surroundings when I am doing a job and I try to be very cautious and attentive in order to make sure they don't get hurt, escape, etc.
“Tony did a great job. He had some other dogs over which gave Penny ample opportunity to play. She was having a bit of a skin issue and Tony actively monitored Penny for the duration of the visit. Clear consistent communications with many pictures of Penny having a great time. Would book again.”
“Ben was terrific! He took care of my dog Ollie for three days, and gave me many updates during that time. He has two large dogs of his own, and made sure that Ollie was comfortable with them as well as in his home. He's clearly a dog person, and will take care of your pet like his own. Highly recommend Ben!”
“Rona took excellent care of Basie and Mimi while we were away! She sent us regularly updates of the doggies sleeping, eating, and playing and she made sure that they wore their sweaters when they went outside in the chilly weather. Definitely would book again, she's amazing!”
“Erik and his family were awesome. My dogs were much happier than when I used a boarding facility. Would use them again and recommend highly. Thank you Erik and your family for treating my dogs like family.”
“Stephanie was great! She was easy to work with, took fantastic care of our pup. Our girl wasn't sure she wanted to leave. She sent lots of pictures and provided a fun and active environment. Would highly recommend!”
“Amanda and her family were amazing. They took such great care of my Ruby. The pics sent to me showed that Ruby was being loved and pampered just as she would if at home with me. The entire family was involved in helping care for Ruby. I will definitely connect again in the future”
“We felt Teddy was very well taken care of. He got lots of love, plenty of tennis ball throws, and sweet cuddles from Heather and her daughter. It felt great knowing Teddy was in such good hands while we were away.”
“Paula is my #1 pick to take care of my dog when I travel out of town. She's so caring and loving and takes care of my pup well. She gives the dog freedom and my pup loves going there. Paula sends pictures often and its nice to see he's having a good time. I hope she continues taking care of pups for the longest time as she does it well with care, attention and love.”
“The kids were happy. Good communication, lots of photos and video. It was a great place with a good yard for them to play. She took good care of our perrhijos.”
“Easy pickup and drop off, friendly, updates with pictures of my dog during her 1 week stay with them. They got her to eat her breakfast every morning and play and she's a shy nervous girl!”
“Jenny and her family did an excellent job watching Teddy and giving him the best experience during the holidays. It was even his birthday and they went above and beyond to throw a birthday party for him! We are so appreciative of how well Teddy was treated and all the photo updates were reassuring. Teddy is looking forward to his next stay! Highly recommend! 🤍”
“Wanqing has been our daycare sitter for a while now, this was our first boarding stay. We were scared at first due to a previous bad experience on Rover, but Wanqing was very responsive over text and made us feel very reassured. We would highly recommend Wanqing, she gives all the pets in her home so much love and attention. Our dog does not come home super tired, but he always looks so content and behaves so well after coming back from Wanqing's place.”
“My pup, Toby, had an awesome time staying with Sarah and her pup!!! She took him out for walks multiple times a day, plus a quick run, which is perfect for my high energy puppy. She kept me updated through out the weekend with texts and pictures. Sarah, you were amazing! Thank you again for taking care of the Tobe-master!”
“Katie and Samuel were great to Jarvis and sent us several updates throughout his stay. They also have a gated backyard to help with energetic dogs. I would highly reccomend!”

“Vanessa was flexible and understanding with my schedule changes and was dedicated to caring for my fur baby!

Though it wasn't in the plan, she was able to find and administer medication successfully. I was glad to come home to a clean apartment and a contented fur baby. Vanessa has become my kitty's favorite person besides me. I definitely recommend her for your fur baby! :)”

“This was my second time booking with Alissa and she was just as great the this time around. One of my kitties had an accident, and Alissa helped clean up and kept me updated throughout her drop-in on how my cat was doing. She’s very reliable and definitely my new go-to for watching my cats!”
“Blanca was amazing - super reliable and responsive! Our cat is usually grumpy, but Blanca is a natural and the cat LOVED her. Great updates and photos with each visit. Will definitely book again!”
“Ben provided excellent care for our dog and cat while we were on vacation for a week! He did 3 drop-in visits a day, arrived on time, and provided pics and videos. THEN, when our flight was delayed and we were stuck for two additional days, he covered those visits as well, which was amazing as we were already under a ton of stress due to the delay. We will definitely book Ben again and highly recommend.”
“Ayla took excellent care of our kitties. We came back to healthy cats who are enthusiastic about hanging out with us, and our house was sufficiently clean and dry. I would totally hire Ayla again and recommend her pet services to others.”

About: I genuine care and give attention to every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies who are still learning routines, including basic training and potty schedules, and I’m also gentle and mindful with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra comfort. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I currently work only 2 days out of the week, but my schedule is very flexible, and can switch days if need be! Will accommodate I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable and follow the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention so pets feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and make sure pets stay on their normal schedule. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and any special instructions from the owner to make sure they feel happy and cared for.
About: I have grown up with dogs and have always had one. I know the dedication and time it takes to give dogs the care and attention they need. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets’ care while they were on trips and I have always found it enjoyable and rewarding. I am currently in grad school and so have flexibility for walks and drop ins! If your pup is comfortable with other dogs, I am happy to welcome them here. We have an extra bed and plenty of toys to share! I have evenings and weekends free, so I am available to play and walk after 4:30pm and on weekends! I have the availability to stop home during my day to let pups out for potty and a play break! I have a pup of my own so your dog will always have company. If necessary, I have a crate that your dog can use to keep them safe. I also have plenty of toys to share :)
“Wow! Our Bernese Mountain dog, Rosie, had a wonderful day with Tony! He has a beautiful clean home and a fenced backyard that is perfect for dogs. A five star day! We will be using Tony again.”

About: Hi! My name is Rona. I grew up on a farm in the Philippines. As a child, my parents always had dogs and cats at home. I’ve experienced taking care of many different types of animals. It was quite challenging but it’s fun! When I came here, we adopted Maggie and Lyka when they were still puppies. Maggie is a 6 year old Pug and Lyka is a 2 year old Boston Terrier. I love them so much! They are both lovable and friendly. Our neighbors and friends have relied on me to groom, walk, feed and bathe their dogs while they were away. My house sits in a shady private area and is surrounded by parks and trails so there will be a lot of running around and play time when your dog is cared for by me. I can do oral medication administration, I have had a senior dog experience and can provide daily exercise for your pups. My schedule is flexible so I can usually take on new dogs at a moment’s notice. I will update you regularly with pictures and videos to give you peace of mind during your time apart. I am working from home so most of my time will be caring for your fur baby. Daycare drop-off no earlier than 6:00 am and pick-up hours anytime in the afternoon. We have a large fenced backyard and our two dogs, Maggie (Pug) and Lyka (Boston Terrier) are very good with all dogs. They love to play and will keep your fur baby company during their stay. The dogs are in and out all day using 9 steps. We have security cameras and limited access to our property.
About: Since I was little I’ve taken care of many pets! People have relied on me when out of town many times for a puppy and older dogs. I’ve bathed dogs, cut their hair, given medicine, etc.. No matter what it says on here I am always taking new pets! Sometimes this app randomly changes my availability or accessibility. Please ALWAYS REACH OUT!!! I am a student but in my free time i love to take care of and hangout with peoples animals! I am still figuring out pricing! I will respect your home and pet. I will play with them outside if they have a yard and make sure they feel loved. I will always be responsible and take great care of them.
“We are very grateful to Tracy. She took care of our adolescent dog with his first experience with daycare. We had a sudden family emergency that required someone to look after our pub. She was open and communicative which was very helpful. Would recommend to others.”

I would highly recommend Hillary to anyone looking for care for their pets!”
About: I have experience working at a dog daycare, (Dana’s Dog Spa and Daycare in Hutchinson, MN) where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities in a fast-paced environment. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, feeding, cleaning, and making sure each dog was safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve also spent many years caring for the pets of friends and family, providing reliable cat and dog sitting while they were away and regularly walking their dogs. I’ve always looked forward to spending time with them, and I genuinely enjoy caring for animals! I am available mornings (7am - 10:30 am) and evenings (4pm - 11 pm) on M, T, TH, and F. And I am available most weekends as I’m a college student, but I do not have a car on campus so I will be walking or taking the bus! I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I care for each and every pet with the same love and attention I’d give my own. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, prioritize safety on every walk and visit, and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind. I’m always happy to answer any questions and help you feel confident that your pet is in caring, reliable hands!
