Doggy Day Care in Waugh

“Dustin was great with Chip. I trusted him right away as Chip took to him the same. He sent plenty of photos and Chip came back from doggy daycare absolutely spent! What’s better than a tired dog?”

About: ABOUT ME: Completely insured WITH Animal Bailee Insurance and Vet Protection Coverage through PCI. I have been on and off Rover since I was in college and own my small business. I am a previous dog owner. My animals were not only my pets, but they were my family. I had my Labrador for 13 years and my Boxer mix for 15 years. We used to love to take long strolls around the neighborhood and visit our pals at the local dog park. We would cook dinner and lounge around watching our favorite flicks. We even took car rides around town when we got bored. Over the years, we went through everything from crazy puppy phases, to professional command/leash training, and experienced all medical scares (labs love to chew on EVERYTHING) under the sun. Maple was a diabetic for 7 years. I can assist with any type of need ranging from long walks, simple belly rubs, to training help. I am highly experienced in administering topical, oral and injectable medications, as well as eye and ear medications. My senior pets care needs helped build my knowledge in senior dogs. I am well educated on many types of medications and daily care pills. Whatever the need may be just ask me! EDUCATION: I am a graduate with my b.s. in buisness from Purdue. I currently am a stay at home mother, with much freedom to build my own schedule. Therefore I am always available for drop-ins and pup walks throughout the week and weekends. I am completely insured with $1M general liability, Animal Bailee Insurance, and Vet Protection Coverage. I care for pets in the same way I would care for my own pets, like family. Play time, walks, relaxing on the couch, eating treats, you know... just hanging out.

About: I worked in marine mammal care and training at The Indianapolis Zoo for 10 years, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in behavioral neuroscience from Purdue University. My partner and I both work from home and we have two dogs of our own, so pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I have 2 friendly, crate trained dogs who get walks 2-3 times/day. We also recently built a mini dog park in our back yard for dogs who prefer to be off leash, but also need to be supervised while outside.

About: I have owned and taken care of other’s pets all my life. I am 48 years old and have 3 cats and 1 dog currently. I have had many labs and larger dogs as well as small dogs over the years and love caring for all breeds and sizes. I take care of my neighbor’s dogs, bunny and cats when they go out of town. I work a full time job from home and have a lot of flexible hours to walk dogs during the day. I am available most weekends to come over and care for other pets, clean litter boxes and just spend time with your fur babies. I have a very large fenced in yard and a social dog that will play. I have 3 cats that have spent their entire life around dogs. I have 3 different sized dog crates if your dog is crate trained. My pets are allowed to sit and sleep on the furniture and beds in the house. My pets are like family members and pretty spoiled! I will treat your pets the same as I treat mine.

“Kelly and Mark were fantastic. Kelly was quick to communicate with me, sending updates and pictures. My dogs seem to have a good time and came home tired. Their 2 Golden Retrievers were sweet and happy to have playmates for the day. Will definitely use them again for doggie day care. Highly recommend.”

About: My husband and I are lifelong dog lovers with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for our own beloved Labs. We had the joy of raising a chocolate Lab for 16 years and a silver Lab for 12 years — they were family in every sense of the word. After saying goodbye to both of them in 2024 and 2025, our home felt a little too quiet. We’re not quite ready to adopt again, but our hearts and home are wide open. That’s what brought us to Rover. We know firsthand what it means to trust someone with your dog, and we take that responsibility seriously. Your pup will be welcomed into our home the same way we cared for ours — with patience, love, and the kind of attention only dog people can give. We have a fully fenced in yard for safe outdoor play, plus plenty of walking paths right in our neighborhood to keep your dog active and happy. Both my husband and I work from home full time, which means your pup is never left alone. We’re here throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, and routine walks — keeping their schedule as normal and stress-free as possible. Your dog will be in a safe, loving environment from the moment they arrive. Our home features a fully fenced yard for worry-free outdoor play and neighborhood walking paths for daily exercise. We also have a cozy dog bed ready for naps and downtime, but couch cuddles and sleeping in bed are more than welcome too — whatever makes your pup feel most at home.

“Amy did a great job of taking care of my dog. Would definitely recommend and would bring my dog back again here for daycare ! My dog came back home tired . Loved the pics and updates !”

About: Hi, I’m Emma. Thanks for stopping by my profile! I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always had a dog in the house. I grew up with Labrador Retrievers and currently have a French Bulldog of my own. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments — from high-energy puppies to seniors who need a slower pace and extra attention. I also have experience with cats and grew up riding and caring for horses, including competing at the collegiate level. Whether you’re looking for daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well loved. 💡 Note: Dogs requiring extra care — such as seniors, those with mobility issues, or pets needing medical support — are booked at my Puppy Rate due to the additional time and attention involved.

I live in an apartment complex near near multiple parks with great walking trails. Happy to hang with your pup indoors or go do something more active outside!

“Olivia is awesome. She is very caring and responsive. Sufi has been with her multiple times and he always came back home happy and tired. Last couple of occasions, Sufi did not want to come back home, and that says it all!!”

I’m a stay at home mom who has a clear day while the kids are at school so your pet will have plenty of attention I have a dog park in my neighborhood and no pets. Your pet would be able to stroll around the house freely. No need for a crate here

“Our dog Bear was well taken care of and spent plenty of time outside for exercise. They were great about sending photos of him during the day.”

Katie G.

“Emily was amazing!! She took such good care of our dog and kept us updated with pics the whole time, which we loved. He came back sooo happy and exhausted (in the best way) 😭 Super easy to communicate with, really responsive, and just overall very chill and caring. You can tell she really loves what she does. Would 100% book again and recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!!”

Chloe K.

“Veronika is the absolute best! She has watched our dog, Howie, for over one year. She is always super accommodating, allowing us to pick him up at different times according to our needs. She is always available and very responsive. She treats our dog like he is her own. She feeds him and gives him his medications. She takes excellent care of him. I would not trust my dog to anybody else. She has even watched him overnight for an entire week. Absolutely no issues whatsoever. She always sends pictures and updates and keeps us informed of everything. I would highly highly recommend Veronika. She is absolutely amazing.”

About: Animals have always been my primary passion. Growing up on a farm surrounded by cows, chickens, and a variety of dogs—from energetic Boxers and Labradors to gentle Golden Retrievers, I learned early on that every animal has a unique personality and specific needs. Over the last 15 years, I have cared for a wide range of dogs and cats, gaining extensive experience that spans the entire life cycle of a pet. This work is deeply personal to me, as I recently said goodbye to my own beloved Boxer who lived to be 13 years old. Navigating those senior years gave me firsthand expertise in providing mobility assistance, a gentle touch, and precise medication administration. Beyond senior care, I am highly proficient in puppy care—focusing on consistent training reinforcement and managing high energy, and I am comfortable with all temperaments, from "velcro dogs" who thrive on constant attention to more independent or cautious rescues. I am available full-time with a completely open and flexible schedule, which means your pet will be my primary focus throughout the day. Whether you need a mid-day walk, a last-minute drop-in, or around-the-clock companionship for your pet, I can easily accommodate your needs. Because I am 'open whenever,' I can stick strictly to your pet's specific feeding and exercise routine without any time conflicts. Safety is my absolute priority. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do a thorough walkthrough to ensure everything is secure and follow all house rules strictly. I am very experienced in managing different leash temperaments on walks to keep dogs safe from traffic or other animals. I provide frequent photo updates and clear communication so you can have total peace of mind knowing your pet is in expert, loving hands. My home is currently a calm, pet-free environment, which is ideal for dogs who prefer to be the 'only child' or need a quiet space to relax.
