Doggy Day Care in Waynesville

About: I am a stay at home mom that wants to offer my time and service to care for other’s pets. I have a deep love and care for dogs and prioritize safety for everyone. I am big on communication and keeping the parents informed on how their pets stay is going. I’m pretty flexible for whatever the parent and pet needs since I am home all day. I’m happy to accommodate to help make this experience easier. I have a hugged fenced in yard that is perfect for those super energetic dogs and the ones that just enjoy sniffing around. I have a dedicated room for the pets that I will care for but they are more than welcome to roam around the house and sprawl out on the furniture. Crates are used during feeding time or when I am away to prevent any accidents.

“Excellent! She was so sweet and ready to take care of my puppy. I took my puppy three days in a row and by the 3rd day she was so excited to be there.”

About: As an avid animal lover with six years of experience working with dogs—including those who are sick, injured, scared, or have been abused—I can accommodate any special requests to ensure your dog's comfort and happiness. My home is a safe, smoke, drug, and alcohol-free environment where your dog will feel loved and secure. Big or small, every dog is welcome! I aim to make your dog excited for every visit. Consider me to be your dog's home away from home! Early Morning (6-8 AM): I start the day with potty breaks and individual or group walks based on compatibility and needs. Provide fresh water and food according to each dog’s specific dietary plan. Late Morning (10 AM-12 PM): Engage in playtime, which could include fetch, puzzle toys, or simply supervised free play in a secure area followed by supervised outside time. Afternoon (2-4 PM): Quiet time for rest or individual attention like grooming, brushing, or cuddles. This helps reduce anxiety and provides a calm environment. Evening (6-8 PM): Dinner service, followed by a final walk to allow for potty breaks before bedtime. * Night (9-10 PM): Final check to ensure all dogs are comfortable, have access to water, and are securely settled for the night. Address any late-night needs like anxiety or discomfort. My top priority is creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. Each day includes structured playtime, regular walks, and plenty of opportunities for socialization, tailored to their individual energy levels and personalities. I provide nutritious meals, fresh water, and cozy resting spots to ensure their physical needs are met. Most importantly, I offer constant attention, affection, and a watchful eye to make sure each dog feels secure, loved, and right at home during their stay.

I also have the ability to crate your dog if that's something that is needed.

“Morgan was great with our 2 dogs for the week we were packing out of house. She was flexible with our crazy schedule and helped take away the stress of worrying about the dogs during the day! She was conveniently located on base and by the end of the week, my dogs were running up to her door for day care! I would definitely recommend!”

About: Hi! My name is Liz and I originally hail from Boston, MA, but recently moved to Fort Leonard Wood with my husband after 6 years in North Carolina! I have been working with animals for over 15+years. I grew up riding horses and worked as a veterinary technician for small and large animals for over 3 years. I have been working as an RN in acute care for the last 6 years, but have decided to take a break from nursing for the time being. I fill up my free time hiking, trail running, weightlifting, fishing, and camping. Life happens, I totally get it, so my cancellation policy is flexible. Please reach out for more information or any questions/concerns. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I currently am taking time off from nursing so have full availability. I am expecting my first child in May 2024, but will be active and dog walking/sitting (god willing) up until my due date! I am an early riser and can really work with you to accommodate any schedule you and your pet need. I would love to know your dogs typical routine and needs. I have a 12 year old Great Dane/pit mix named Ivan who is my best friend. He just needs a good introduction, but is glad to having 4 legged visitors and sharing our home :)

About: I have been taking care and training dogs since I was 10. We have owned many dogs of all type and age. My love and passion for dogs and all animals has led me to fostering/rescuing dogs and have worked in grooming/dog sitting career fields. Dogs are family and should be treated as so with the best care that you would provide for a child! I am currently only attending school but I am a new mom so my availability is Monday through Friday preferably in the mornings and afternoons! We have two dogs and a cat with space available for two more furry friends during the day!

If there are any questions or times you need that I don’t have available, I’m always willing to discuss! I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have two different sized dog leads if needed. Pets are treated as family, and I make sure to follow all care information as directed to ensure the best care possible for your fur baby.

About: I have had pets my entire life and leaving them for longer than I'm used to is so hard. I've been with dogs that are hours old and I've been with dogs in their final moments. I do work 8.5 hour shifts 3-4 days a week. So while I couldnt care for them while I am at work before/after and and on my days off I am more than available. I require a meet and greet for new clients just so I know where all of thier stuff is and so the pets meet me with thier owners for the first time and it is less stressful. I can crate animals take them for walks, take them out in the backyard. Anything to burn energy before being left home alone again.

“Great service yet again! Jennifer was able accommodate us and our fur babies and take special care of them.”

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I currently have one rescued border collie mix named Spock. My husband and I have a big backyard and both love animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pet:) I am a college student so just let me know what works for you and your pet and I’m sure I’ll be able to work my life around it:) I’ll treat your pet just like I treat my own. Spock gets along great with other animals but I would love the chance for them to meet before an animal just being dropped off at my house. Spock is allergic to chicken and has high anxiety so I know how important it is to give animals the proper care they need.
