Doggy Day Care in Whitener

“I noticed immediately my dogs were much calmer and more relaxed than when I take them to a boarding kennel. The home setting that Jocelyn provides is much more accommodating for our dogs that struggle with anxiety. Really happy to have had such a great experience with our first time using Rover. Jocelyn is a really great care provider.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve owned both cats and dogs over the years, and I currently have three sweet dogs of my own, two Golden Retrievers and a Great Pyrenees mix. They are all very friendly and love meeting new furry friends. I also have experience fostering dogs from shelters, where I’ve worked on potty training, crate training, and helping dogs overcome challenges like reactivity with people or other pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to dogs over 100 pounds. I have experience with all life stages, from very young puppies, even bottle feeding age, to senior dogs up to 14 to 16 years old. No matter the pet, I treat every animal in my care with patience, love, and lots of attention so they feel safe and right at home. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm, but caring for pets is naturally part of my daily routine. My mornings start early, around 6 to 7am, with potty breaks followed by breakfast around 7am. Throughout the day, I provide additional potty breaks based on each pet’s needs, typically late morning from 10 to 11am, mid afternoon from 3 to 4pm, and again in the evening from 7 to 8pm, followed by dinner around 8pm. We always end the day with one last potty break before bedtime. On weekends, I am home more often, which allows for extra attention, walks, and playtime. I am very flexible and adapt to each pet’s individual needs, treating every visiting pet as if they were my own. I prioritize consistency, comfort, and making sure every pet feels cared for and at ease. In my home, pets are cared for just like my own three dogs, with lots of love, attention, and a consistent routine. I make sure they are fed on time, always have fresh water, get regular potty breaks, and have plenty of playtime, walks, or cuddle time depending on their personality. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, comfort level, and any special needs so they feel safe and at home. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick as closely as possible to their normal routine to keep things familiar and stress free. This includes feeding, walks or potty breaks, playtime, crate routines, and giving any medications if needed. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you are away.

“Lark is very responsive and seems to know her stuff. Our pup was very well taken care of and seems to really have enjoyed herself. It’s always tough leaving them but we feel confident Lark responds nda to each dogs needs and we are looking forward to using Lark again soon for boarding as she did a great job.”

“I’m so happy we found Laura. My pup gets super excited when we are pulling up to her home. He is always tired when he gets home which means he has so much fun with Laura and her family! From daily walks, to multiple pictures throughout the day, to special feeding needs, Laura takes care of it all. Highly recommended!”

About: Hello, fellow dog moms and dads! I’m a lifelong dog lover with plenty of hands-on experience and two dogs of my own. I work fully remote, and as a dog parent I know how reassuring it is to be able to check in during the day for quick potty breaks, fresh water, and a little attention when they need it. I’d love to extend that same dependable, thoughtful care to you, so you can feel confident your dog is safe and cared for, whether you’re stuck in an office all day or just have a busy schedule. What sets me apart is my focus on reliable communication and safety. I’m responsive, I follow your routine closely, and I’ll always send photo updates and a clear recap after each visit. I also have experience with brachycephalic breeds (like English Bulldogs and French Bulldogs) and understand the extra care they can require, especially around heat, breathing, and pacing on walks. In addition, I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs, including slower-paced walks, gentle routines, and extra patience and monitoring. I’m happy to tailor each visit to your dog’s needs and energy level. I’m also pet first aid and CPR certified though American Red Cross. I always have a pet first aid kit at my home as well as in my car for drop in visits and walks. 🐾Ask About Spa Add-Ons!🐾 All of my boarding guests can enjoy optional spa services such as baths (short-haired dogs), brushing, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, and paw balm treatments. Mention your interest when booking for details and pricing! Pet care is already part of my everyday routine since I’m a dog owner myself. I work fully remote, so I’m used to planning my day around potty breaks, walks, feeding times, and check-ins. Because I’m home during the day, I can be responsive with midday drop-ins and walks and communicate quickly if anything comes up. I keep a consistent schedule and plan routes close by so I can be reliable and on time. I follow your instructions closely and stick to your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. Drop-in visits (up to 40 minutes) are perfect for a midday check-in while you’re at work or away. During each visit, I’ll follow your routine and make sure your pup is comfortable and cared for: a potty break, fresh water, feeding if requested, and some playtime/affection. I’ll also do a quick check that doors/gates are secure before I leave. Dog walks (up to 30 minutes) are a dedicated, leash-only walk for exercise and enrichment. I’ll walk at your dog’s pace, allow time for sniff breaks, and prioritize safe leash handling the entire time. After the walk, I’ll make sure your dog is settled with fresh water and I’ll send photo updates and a recap (including potty info). **If your dog needs feeding, medication, or extended playtime, those are best booked as a drop-in visit so I can follow your full care routine.

“She was great! I have very anxious pups and she reassured me and took photos of them all day and sent them to me to keep me updated. She asked before giving any treats. She responds very quickly and had toys for them to place with! Will definitely be using her again!”

“Max has a great setup for doggy daycare. He made my scared, anxious pup feel right at home. My dog didn’t feel comfortable with the other dogs so he played with him outside and gave him the space he needed. He’s got a large fenced yard with plenty of grass, which my dog loves.”

We have wood and tiles throughout the home in case of accidents. Our home is 2700 sqft with a decent sized fenced in yard perfect for play time. We have a large patio that we utilize often that is covered with a large fan and plenty of shade. We don’t usually let the pups outside without us being out there.

About: I have experience in taking care of pets ever since I was 5 years old. I have the most experience with taking care of dogs with feeding, bathing, walking, and training. A pet is a family member and will be treated as such. I work from home every day and am able to freely care for your furry friend throughout the day and attend to their needs as needed. I have 3 kids who also love dogs. I am open all week and will make sure your pet is considered part of the family when taking care of them. I do not have a fenced-in yard but will walk your fur baby daily. We go out 3 times a day every day and have play time or stimulation such as lick mats daily.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with a very flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. I love being outdoors and spending time walking, playing, and exploring with dogs. I live on acreage with plenty of open space and private trails where your dog can get lots of exercise and fresh air. I’m happy to walk dogs leashed or unleashed—whatever you prefer and feel most comfortable with. If your dog is more of a couch potato than an athlete, that’s perfectly fine too! I have plenty of experience with older, calm, and low-energy pets and am happy to match whatever pace fits your dog’s personality—whether that’s an adventure walk or just relaxing together at home. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every dog like part of my family and make sure they get the attention and routine they need. Communication is a top priority for me. You’ll receive frequent updates, photos, and messages so you always feel connected while you’re away. Please note: I don’t stay overnight at clients’ homes, but I’m happy to offer walks, drop-ins, daycare, and extended daytime visits. I look forward to caring for your furry family member! With a flexible daily schedule, I can give your dog consistent care and companionship instead of rushing in and out. Your pet will always be a priority in my day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I am reliable, responsible, follow instructions carefully, and always treat every dog like my own.
