Doggy Day Care in Walnut

“Jess was so great with our dogs over thanksgiving. She sent so many pictures and stories, making us feel much better about the long trip away from them. We could tell that our dogs felt at home with her family!”

“Brody is very accommodating and friendly dog sitter. My first impressions is that he is someone who is very trustworthy and caring for dogs. My two pups had an amazing time with him, and I am looking forward to future visits to Asheville and knowing that the dogs will have an exciting and safe experience.”

“This is my 2nd review - both 5 stars! Jose & Maria take such good care of my precious Clementine. They listen & follow through with instructions, communicate quickly & genuinely care about my pup. Clementine has done both doggy daycare & boarding, both experiences have gone really well :)”

“My sweet 8 mo old golden retriever, Cedar, had two big days of fun doing daycare at Laird’s home Saturday and Sunday! Beautiful fenced in backyard with lots of room for the pups to play! Cedar came home happy and sleepy. Loved the great communication and photos and videos throughout the day of Cedar living his best life.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 16. I also grew up with 4 medium sized dogs at a time. I have always had a love for animals and love to meet other fur babies. I have been able to follow feeding instructions and if needed have followed giving medications. Just a heads up I will not be accepting bookings from June on until I am sure where I will be after college. I’m currently a senior in college with only 2 classes and 2 labs, so I will have a lot of time to spend with your pups! I have a small, fenced yard and I have one yellow lab at home that is very dog friendly. I will follow up with you anytime I arrive at your house and will provide a recap of my time with your animal. I will follow all instructions given to me ahead of time to ensure you receive the best care for your furry friend. I will treat them as if they were my own and spend so much time ensuring they enjoy there time with me!

“Thank you again Ms Michelle!!!! Looks like he had a great time with you and cant wait for future visits to come with someone he now knows and trusts!”

About: I can board small dogs at our house, and I can sit large and small dogs and horses, chickens and just about any other animals at your house. (We just built a new house with hardwood floors and no fenced yard!) I have loved and trained dogs, cats, and horses since I was a young child. I love and respect all animals, and I get along with most of them right from the get-go. I am retired, healthy, and like to get out and about. I do expect pets to behave, and have the utmost respect for the boundaries you have set for your pet. Some years back, I trained our brown mutt family pet to play the role of Sandy in the HS performance of Annie. She brought the house down at curtain bow! I believe in training animals by showing them respect and being very clear about what it is I am asking of them. So let's go! I want to meet your dog!

About: I have more than 10 years of experience working with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments. I have interned under licensed veterinarians, volunteered with countless animal rescue groups, was employed as a shelter manager for a no-kill animal shelter, and have worked at two different doggy daycare centers. I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer and have completely fallen in love with the problem-solving aspects of dog training and how it allows me to help owners and their pets live happier, less frustrating, lives together! I do have a full time job and an adolescent Border Collie, but am available for overnight stays in your home or in mine and will give all my extra time and attention to your pup during my stay! My goal is for your dog to hardly miss you while you are gone and to keep their routine as close to normal as possible during your absence. I do currently have my own dog, Dash, who sometimes accompanied me on my overnight stays if your dog wants a playmate! I have been fostering dogs through local rescue groups and animal shelters for several years and have become accustomed to many different kinds of dogs in that time. Why I love dog sitting... I've loved dogs all my life! I got my first dog when I was 6, a black lab named Holly, and a Bichon Frise, Dixie, the dog who was considered by every member of my family to really be "mine" when I was 9. The years when I was in college and away from my dogs was hard and as soon as I moved out on my own, but couldn't yet afford my own dog, I started pet-sitting and dog walking for friends and neighbors. Since then, I have longed to have a dog in my house at all times, but wasn’t immediately financially ready for my own forever dog. So I have been volunteering at a couple of local animal shelters as a Foster Mom for dogs in need of a temporary home, and a little extra TLC, before they are adopted into their forever homes! As a professional dog trainer, I get to make my own schedule, which provides immense flexibility for walking dogs and doing drop in visits for pet care!! I have a fenced in yard and a dog who loves to play! Dash, our Border Collie, often comes with me to overnight stays. When I come to your house to visit your pets, I’m always sure to leave the key where I found it and be sure the house is secured before I leave.

“Molly was available last minute to care for Koda! I appreciate her flexibility and attentiveness. The space she offers is a doggy haven. Thank you!”

Derinne C.

“It was good having someone so close to where I’m staying. I completely trusted her with my girl Zoe. I only had to leave Zoe for 3 to 4 hours when I was working and it completely slipped my mind at rest. I highly recommend Vicki and will absolutely use her when I can again”

Liz S.

“Thank uuu Jen!! She was just the best!!

Jen sent photos and messaged We hope to return and will contact Jen!! We highly recommend her!! 🍃🏆🩷🐾😀”

About: I have been surrounded by pets my whole life. Growing up, we always had dogs, cats, and birds. When I moved to the U.S, I lived in the country side with many dogs and thousand of birds (literally). Now, I have a little Chihuahua mix; he is like my baby. I also help my friends sitting their dogs when they are out of town. I love animals; I like to play with them and give them a lot of attention. I have experience administering medication to pets either orally or injectable . I am educated and trustful person who will respect your home and your pets. I am able to pass a background check if it is required. I have a cellphone and my own car. My husband and I both work from home, so your dog will never be left alone. Our jobs are very flexible, which means we can take your dog for walks during the day. I have a very friendly old Chihuahua. My house is big, comfy and very clean. It's at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there's no traffic.

“Kristin and her kids made Ruby’s day! They gave her lots of love, showed her how to play soccer, and made sure she had everything she needed.”

Eliana C.

“April is AMAZING! I cannot recommend her enough! She is so kind and caring and my puppy Oozo just loves her. He gets excited to go there and comes home happy and content. If I could I would give her many more stars.”

Michelle L.

“Alexis is great- welcoming, and friendly. Upon meeting her you can immediately tell she enjoys living on her small farm and taking care of animals. We felt very comfortable with our dog hanging out with her. Good communicator. Highly recommend.”

About: Ive cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for years, including my own mini Labradoodle. I am confident with puppies, high energy dogs and shy pups who need gentle love. I have hands on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, medication, crate training. I treat every dog like they are my own. I am a junior in college, I will be home for winter break for over a month and want a side hustle! I have open availability throughout the week. I have a Labradoodle Honey who gets lots of attention, affection, and a consistent routine. I make sure she has rest spots, fresh water at all time, and regular walks and outside time. I will send regular updates and photos so you know how ur puppy is doing.

“Mabel did so well with Teresa! I felt confident that Mabel enjoyed the daycare/meet and greet, and know that I will be comfortable leaving her again in the future.”
