Doggy Day Care in West Marion

“Emily took care of our dog, Hazel Grace, at her home, and we couldn’t be more pleased! She was attentive and caring, making Hazel feel comfortable from the start. What really set Emily apart was her thoughtful communication—she sent regular pictures and updates throughout Hazel’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. Hazel looked happy and relaxed in every photo, and it was clear she was in a safe and loving environment. We highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a dedicated and caring dog sitter!”

“Left our fur baby with Skyla while we were visiting from out of town. Skyla was great and loving! She made Luna feel comfortable and provided her with lots of activities and play time. She kept us informed throughout the day which made us feel at ease. So thankful we were able to count on her to watched Luna while we vacationed!”

About: I treat every pet like my own. I have experience with puppies who need training, senior pets who need extra care, and cats with all kinds of personalities; from shy to super social. I’m great at reading what each pet needs, whether it’s playtime, snuggles, space, or meds. You can count on me to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away I work from home with open availability. With that being said, I am here when and wherever you need me for your fur baby ! I have a huge yard and a big enough home to accommodate your fur baby, of any size! I also have 2 young children who absolutely adore animals but can always separate if need be!

“Good updates throughout the day. Good communication.”

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I bring more than just pet sitting — I bring true peace of mind. I’ve worked with animals of all kinds, from energetic puppies and curious cats to senior pets with special needs. Animals aren’t just a job to me , they’re family. I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment for every pet in my care. Whether it’s belly rubs, medication schedules, or just quality companionship, I treat each pet like my own. I understand their body language, their routines, and most importantly, their hearts. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I’ve intentionally made space for. I work from home, which means I have the flexibility to give your pets the attention they need throughout the day. I don’t have young children or other pets, so my focus stays 100% on your furry family member. This allows me to create a calm, low-stress environment tailored just for them, whether they need playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a cozy lap to nap on. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, personality, and quirks. Whether they’re energetic or anxious, playful or shy, I meet them where they are with patience and kindness. I also send regular updates, photos, and videos so you feel close and connected while you’re away.

About: Animal care is the focus of my professional life as well as my personal life. I’ve been caring for, training, and loving dogs and horses since I was a boy. I believe only in positive reinforcement and patience. Animals WANT to please their owners. They just need to be taught how. I’m available weekdays and can make almost any time work to fit your schedule! I’m available weekends, but the schedule is a little tighter for child care reasons. For walks, I like to take dogs to undisturbed stretches of land or trails to hone their leash training and stamina. When training a dog commands, I use my own property which is void of distractions.

“Savannah was awesome! We changed our plans around a little bit several times and she was completing accommodating to them. They sent us pictures of the dogs while they were gone and it looked like they had a lot of fun! Definitely recommend booking with Savannah!”

“Needed a last minute sitter for a few hours and booked with Leyden. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures while I was gone so I never stressed for a second how my dog was doing. If I lived in the area I would absolutely book her again! I went home with one tired pup 🙂”
