Doggy Day Care in Wakarusa

“I’m a first time puppy parent and Chris made it so stress free for my puppy’s first daycare experience. He was only there for a few hours but he is already asleep at home so I know he had a great time! We will definitely be booking with Chris again when I need a daycare!”

“Jamie was wonderful to work with. Our pup really enjoyed his day. We could tell because he was tired when we picked him up! I would definitely recommend Jamie.”

“Lindsay has been wonderful in this short amount of time. She gives me peace of mind that my dog is well cared for in my absence! Highly recommend Lindsay !”

“Christina is a very kind person, she took such great care of my fur baby while I was on vacation sent pictures/ videos throughout my whole trip to make sure I knew that Jayce was in great hands. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Another week has ended with Jr going to Josie and Michael's home. He is always so happy to see them every morning. He comes home every night ready for a nap because he plays so hard while there. :-). I can not stress enough how happy Jr is there. Josie and Michael are absolutely the best for dog sitting needs. 5 stars!!!”

About: I have a two dogs and a cat. I've fostered for different rescues in the area and can provide references upon request. We've had every type of pup here and haven't ever had to turn one away. I have areas separated by gates for our cat friends to feel secure and rest if needed. I have two litter boxes, one on each level. My pup is Ollie, a yellow lab born around 2014. He was a rescue from Homeward Bound animal shelter and is the best boy! Paddy (Padfoot), my Labradooodle was born around 2021 and has such a sweet disposition! He was also adopted from Homeward Bound. I've also fostered dogs through SBARC and for Homeward bound. I love helping our furry friends feel comfortable and loved.

“Lydia was clearly comfortable with dogs and we felt confident in her day care (1 day) for our dachshund. I would contact her again. She sent pictures throughout the day and was very responsive with communication.”

“Kaley is the perfect sitter! She is extremely knowledgeable and attentive. She is always loving and comforting to our 14 year old chihuahua who can be quite the handful at times. Kaley also sends photo updates while we are gone to reassure us that she is having a great time. We highly recommend her to everyone!”

“We were very pleased with the care our beagle received. Her back yard is fenced which allowed Spencer to be outside without a leash, which he loves. Will use her again, absolutely!”

“She was helpful for the few last minute changes we had asked of her! She replies back fast! I did not worry about my pup and would recommend her!”

“My little Wilma loves Tammie and the friends she makes when she visits. Never worry about her at all, I know she is well taken care of. Thanks Tammie!”

“We brought our two Papillons to Betty yesterday for a day of companionship and exercise. They tend to be fearful of dogs and people, so we were a little concerned about leaving our babies! Betty introduced herself and her 4 little dogs to our boys and everyone was fine! They had a wonderful day and slept like logs all night. I highly recommend Betty and will return in the future when we are back in Elkhart.”

“Tera is so sweet to Vinny and can accommodate my wierd and last minute schedule. Vinny is very comfortable and at home there, I never worry when he is with her. I will always call her first when I am in town.”

“Brandi is simply put...the BEST! My 5 year old pitbull, Alex, is a high energy boy and Brandi made him feel at home, comfortable and loved. Brandi communicated with me daily and sent me pictures, which I appreciated. She is trustworthy and her care and love for animals is apparent. Thank you Brandi!”

“Emily is a classic case of treating animals as good as humans. She is very responsible, dependable, and trustworthy. Her attention to detail and love for animals makes her a great pet caretaker.”

About: I've been taking care of my own and others' pets since I was a baby! I've trained a few puppies on how to sit and stay, come here, and generally behaving better! I promise I'll ensure your pets are not only safe but happy! Please note that I don't accept German Shepherds under 3 years old. I've had too many bad experiences with them. I'm currently looking through some education and career options, so I'm home all week long. I go to sleep and wake up after everyone else in my family, so we can let your dog out to go potty on a very consistent basis. All animals in my care will be provided with an AirTag to ensure they can be easily located should anything happen. I have a fenced-in yard, two dogs, and three cats to keep your pets entertained and exercising. My dogs are super friendly and the cats don't bother anyone.

About: I've been a pet mom of a few dogs and cats Throughout my whole life. I have two little dogs that I walk around my neighborhood. I work a full time 40 hours a week 8 hrs a day shift for a place I've been working at for over 20 years. I have a fenced in yard for them to play around in. I live in a nice neighborhood where plenty of people walk their dogs around. When I'm not home all animal are put in a cage. I am working a full time job. My family and I make sure the animals are well taken care of and all their needs are met. Even though I work full time I am particular about when I take my personal vacation trying to make sure I am always available around holidays and kids school breaks so that the family's can enjoy time together knowing their pets are in good care. I have a fenced in yard depending on the weather we will spend quality time outside playing. We also enjoy going for walks around the neighborhood.

About: Within the past couple years I started my own small business in pet transportation. I received licensing from the USDA and am knowledgeable in best practices in caring for pets while their families are away. I truly believe that our pets are our family and will aim to make your pets feel loved and well-cared for while you’re away. Beyond my own pets, transporting gave me experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I do have references to attest for the high standard of care I will provide. I am no longer transporting pets due to being away from my family (pets and humans) for extended periods of time. Recently I have become a stay at home mom, but really miss all the extra animals I got to love on. My availability is pretty flexible throughout the week now and I’m excited to meet your furry family members! I am available to care for your pet in your home or through walking. I will accept puppies/young dogs for boarding and doggy daycare in my home as I have my own large dogs, who are friendly, but intimidated by other large dogs. This can include feeding, administering medicine, walking, play time, crating, etc. I will always aim to stick to you and your pet’s schedule. I have a couple of years of experience in a vet office, initially attending college for veterinary medicine.

“I appreciated Mya’s quick responses and her flexibility when working with me. I also loved seeing the updates and pictures she would send throughout the day. It was reassuring to know my dog was being well taken care of while I was at work!”

About: I got my first dog when I was 8. I love all animals but especially dogs. I now have two dogs who I take care of! I’m in school, so I have limited time during the week. I’m mostly free Friday afternoons and weekends. On certain weeks I am available week days. I am very open in the way that I care for dogs. This varies between the owners wishes and the dogs needs that I can adapt to.
