Doggy Day Care in Valmeyer

“Haley is wonderful, always giving me details as my little man's anxiety around new people and places lessens every day. As soon as I met her and her children I knew that they'd have a calming influence on him. So glad I found her!!”

“I am so grateful I found Jenna! I was not feeling well and needed to rest but didn't want my dog to be trapped and bored. Jenna was so gracious and welcoming to us and helped me, a first-time user, feel so comfortable. Thank you, Jenna! (And crew) You saved the day”

“Chico, my elderly Chihuahua, went to doggie daycare with Amy in Columbia for a couple of hours while I met friends for lunch. Amy has such a wonderful way with animals; you can tell she really loves watching them. She took lots of photos, have Chico lots of attention and even had a pet guestbook for him to sign. Such a cute idea. If you ever need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Amy.”

About: Hi, I’m Dave! Animals have been a part of my adult life for as long as I can remember—from growing up with dogs to caring for friends’ and neighbors’ pets whenever they needed. I know pets aren’t just animals, they’re family, and I treat every furry friend like my own. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime in the yard, or snuggling on the couch, I love tailoring care to each pet’s personality and needs. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and sizes—from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable with giving oral/injected medications, handling big breeds, and following detailed routines to keep your pets safe and happy. I work from home, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to give your pets the attention they deserve. Walks, potty breaks, and playtime can easily fit into my schedule, and I love breaking up my day with a little furry companionship. Your pet won’t ever feel rushed or overlooked — they’ll get consistent care and affection every day. In my home, pets are treated like family. I make sure they have a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space to play, relax, and feel at ease. I keep a close eye on them at all times, follow their normal routines, and provide lots of affection. Safety is my top priority, so I make sure food, toys, and outdoor spaces are secure. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I create a home-away-from-home where pets feel happy and cared for.

About: I have owned and pet sit cats and dogs for about me entire life. This is about the only time in my life where I have not owned any and there is something missing. Hoping to fill it with some one elses cats/dogs. I work from home alone from 8-5, during this time the animals will never be alone and will get plenty of potty breaks. They will get morning and evening walks if desired, I have a 8 year old son who will be home evenings and weekends, and a 1 year old baby who will have the same scehdule. There is a fenced in back yard that is 1/2 an acer. There is also a fresh creek where we can take walks. Walks will be 2x a day for dogs. Plenty of room in the house and dogs can go anywhere they want. Cats will be given space if wanted, and a quiet place to sleep and relax.

About: I've cared for animals since I was a child. Over the years I've looked after pets for friends, co-workers, and family. I know the panic and uncertainty that can accompany needing to find care. I promise I'll care for your babies as if they're my own so you can have peace of mind. I work from home, so I can provide attention throughout the day to pets. We go for walks and playtime daily for enrichment and stress release. I have a friendly dog who loves company, and 2 cats who will give your pets lots of space. I have multiple yard leads as the yard is not fenced in.

“I am so happy to have found Ashley! I felt/feel confident that Gloria had a fun day with her “friends” while we were out. She came home calm and content after a day of running around like a puppy should. We will be boarding soon as well, and I’m glad to know our puppy is in amazing care while we travel.”

About: Hi, I’m Madalyn — your local dog person! With over 10 years of hands-on experience in the dog training industry, I specialize in helping pet parents feel completely at ease while they’re away. I know how scary it can be to leave your dog with a stranger so I am here to fix that! My background in balanced dog training means I’m skilled at reading canine behavior, managing multiple dogs safely, and supporting everything from high-energy pups to seniors who just want extra cuddles. I treat every dog like my own — with structure, fun, and tons of love. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I tailor the care to your dog’s personality and needs. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and a safe, happy pup when you return home. I’m a full-time dog trainer and sitter, so dogs are at the heart of my every day. Each pup in my care is treated like the unique individual they are — whether that means extra playtime, a peaceful nap spot, or a structured routine that helps them feel at home. I’m an active person who loves getting outside for walks, runs, or a quick game of fetch. There’s even a beautiful park and creek just below my house that’s perfect for long-line play (with your okay, of course). When it’s time to wind down, I’m just as happy to curl up on the couch with a good book and a dog who loves a cuddle. Here, your dog won’t just be “watched”, they’ll be understood, engaged, and cared for like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, understood, and cared for like family. With over a decade of experience, I’ve developed a keen eye for dog behavior and a home perfectly tailored for canine comfort and safety. Dogs love coming back here—it’s clean, organized, and stocked with every toy and enrichment tool imaginable. Each dog gets their own cleaned crate, water bucket, and feeding setup to ensure safe and calm mealtimes. When unsupervised, dogs are kenneled to prevent accidents (no midnight sock snacks here!). I clean all surfaces in my home with pet safe cleaner as well as sanitize my yard between stays. Making sure your dog stays healthy matters to me. I take pride in being the sitter dogs and owners trust most—where dogs get excited when they turn down my street.

“Rachell does so good with our Mozzy, always sends updates and pictures, amazing on availability, and Mozzy always has a ton of fun and comes home exhausted!”

“Vixie got so excited when she realized she was going to Jennifer’s this morning. She played so much and enjoyed the crisp fall weather outside. Will continue to have Vixie stay here when possible.”

About: I have been around all types of pets for most of my life! I do have quite a bit of experience house training puppies and adult dogs Basic commands. I also have experience taking care of our pets when they get old and gray and need the extra little bit of help around the house. My availability is just about as open as it gets, my current job is only 4 to 8 days per month so 90% of the time I’m a stay at home dad! Willing to be as active or lazy as your pet wants! Though I do not have a fenced or large yard, the back of the property is right up against the practice ball field in Waterloo, so we will have plenty of space to run around and play in a safe environment.

“We love Ryn! She is so sweet and our Kai has the most fun with her other puppies! She gives great update and takes lots of photos :)”

“Absolutely love the care my puppy got with Alicia! I wasn't nervous to leave her there at all, she made sure both me and my dog were welcome. If I could give her ten stars I would!”

Abbi C.

“My Nessa loves staying with Adam, he takes such wonderful care of her when I’m away.”

Tracy V.

“If you are a super picky dog parent like me, you will not trust your babies to just anyone looking to make a few extra bucks while you're away. Wendy's home is dog friendly with plenty of fresh clean water, comfortable furniture, baby gates to prevent door-dashing, and a well maintained HUGE secure fenced back yard with plenty of room for your dogs to run and explore! She is a wonderful pet parent, and her personal dogs are very well socialized, loved and cared for. 5 stars from this dog mom!”

“Damica is trustworthy and excellent with my pup. Kya has come home tired and happy from daycare both times I have picked her up, which is exactly what I wanted! Damica is quick to respond and provides updated videos/photos throughout the day so I can see what Kya is up to. Will definitely rehire.”

“My husband and I have never gone anywhere without our precious Molly. We have our son’s destination wedding to attend this month. We have both agonized over leaving Molly behind. A kennel or doggy day care was definitely out of the question. I had heard of Rover so we checked it out. Karissa is a Godsend. Her yard is perfect, she is affectionate and I know in my heart Molly will be exceptionally well cared for. We dropped Molly off this week for a trial day before leaving her a whole week. Karissa kept us updated with pictures and notes throughout the stay. Finding Karissa has eased our anxiety about leaving Molly. I highly recommend checking with Karissa if you are looking for a passionate, reliable sitter.”

Susan R.

“Diane and Scott take great care of our new puppy. We will keep booking them in the future and would definitely recommend them to others!”
