Doggy Day Care in Whittier

About: Animals have always been family in my home. I had a Terrier who I cared for throughout every stage of life into their elderly years, which gave me experience with senior dog care, patience, and understanding changing needs as dogs age. I’ve also spent a lot of time around other family dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and anxiety needs. I understand that every dog has their own temperament and comfort level, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like part of the family. Whether a dog is playful and energetic or shy and anxious, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on creating a calm environment where they can feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, so I am almost always home with the dogs. I absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them attention and affection. My home is very family-oriented, and pets are treated like part of the family. I will be the primary caregiver at all times but there will be tons of love from my family as well. I have a fully enclosed fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, run around, and get fresh air. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around Uptown or to local parks for exercise, stimulation, and fun. Since I spend most of my time at home, I am able to provide consistent care, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for. I provide loving, attentive care for pets both in my home and in my clients’ homes. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family and have a safe, comfortable environment with access to our fully enclosed fenced backyard for exercise and outdoor time. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for based on their individual personality and needs. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, dog sitting, and boarding. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior needing extra patience, I focus on creating a calm, caring experience and keeping pet parents updated for peace of mind.

About: I have been watching family dogs and friends dogs since I was young. I love all types of animals from dogs to cats! I would love to watch all types of dogs,cats, etc and get to know them. Im currently looking to become a full time dog sitter. I can watch your dogs or cats full time and can fit them into my schedule all week. I have a loving home that all the people that I live with love and care for dogs. I have a back patio that your fur babies can use and a lovely park nearby that I can take them for walks and play. If needed at the dog parents home I can follow instructions to whatever you need.

About: We have lots of experience in raising and loving dogs for over 40 years with the ability to care for any age or size. We've had dogs all our married life and our most recent dog, Reba is looking for some friends to play with. We're able to cater to your dogs special diets, continue to implement your training techniques and provide that loving home while you are away. As a retired husband and wife duo our schedules are quite flexible and we spend most of our time at home with our dog Reba. Drop off anytime between 7 AM - 8 PM (please inquire for drop off outside these times for availability). A doggie door provides easy access to our fully fenced in backyard with plenty of grass, a lovely patio and lots of shade to create the perfect space for your dog to lounge outside. Inside the home we're able to provide a safe space to eat and a cozy environment where dogs can lounge on the couches and escape the heat. While we don't allow dogs in our bed you're more then welcome to bring their favorite bed/blanket and we'll provide a quiet space for them to dream away. Our grandchildren visit often (ages 10 +) so kid friendly dogs are a must.

“Super appreciative of Janet taking in my pup, Kai, for the day. She was very communicative and I really appreciated the time flexibility. Kai was so happy when we picked her up and we would love to work with Janet again”

“My fiance and I were so happy with how well our 2 year old Belgian Malinois rescue, Ren, did with Jennell. She is a very timid dog so we were a bit nervous having to leave her. But after dropping Ren off, within minutes we were already seeing Jennell post updates and it made us feel soooo much better. Ren adores Jennell and we will definitely be back again whenever we need day care for her!”

“Mel is an excellent dog sitter! We booked our first day care before my dog, Lucifur, was diagnosed with some limiting orthopedic issues that will soon require surgery. That means he now has to have his movement someone restricted to protect him from injury. When I gave Mel this update and asked if he would still be able to care for Lucifur, he was enthusiastic to watch him. In fact, when I arrived on the first day, Mel had thoughtfully set up a secure area for Lucifur to relax in AND had a plan to keep our dogs separated so Lucifur wouldn't get over excited and run/jump around. Mel was really thoughtful in ensuring that Lucifur had an environment that was safe and he put me at ease. Lucifur enjoys hanging out with Mel and Roxy and I feel confident that he's in great hands. Mel will be out #1 Rover choice from now on!”

“Thank you Amy for taking Great care of my fur baby. Amy sent me updates through out the day and made me feel very happy to know my pup was in good hands. I am definitely taking my fur baby to her again. Five Stars for Amy. 💕”

“Sammy took good care of my Lola. My Lola came back to me happy both times. I met another family member as well, which made me feel comfortable to meet someone else that was in her house. I was extremely happy with my fur child’s care. I’ve had a bad sitter before… Sammy was not the bad one. I got my updates (as usual.) One thing that stood out for me was the fact that my Lola didn’t want to run away immediately. She ran towards me (as is her norm,) but she was happy to go in and out. My dog child is happy and I’m happy. I will definitely be having Sammy sit for my fur kid again. :)”

“Katya was amazing! My puppy, Willow, is a very energetic girl and is new to everything but Katya was so patient and loving towards her. Willow was exhausted by the time I picked her up (which is great news) and she looked so happy in the photos Katya took of her! Willow also gets scared around other dogs but I’m glad she had a good play time with Katya’s dogs :) Highly recommend Katya to everyone!”

“Elvierys was so amazing!! She was very accommodating in my last minute situation. I was very hesitant to leave him with someone new but Elvierys was communicative and sent me picture updates which kept me calm through my day. Will definitely book her again for a play date with Charlie:)”

About: Hello, new friends!!!! I don’t just watch pets I genuinely care for them like they’re my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. I’m patient and attentive with puppies, helping reinforce basic training, potty routines, leash manners, and positive behaviors. I understand how important consistency is at that stage, and I’m happy to follow (or support) your training preferences. I also have a gentle, calm approach with senior pets, including those who need slower walks, extra reassurance, medication administration, or special care. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or mobility and keep owners fully updated. Communication is a big priority for me you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and notes so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Above all, I aim to create a low-stress, loving environment where your pet feels secure, respected, and cared for every step of the way. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I’m home most of the time, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I’m able to keep a close eye on feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. Because of this flexibility, weekend boarding is my specialty. I love having pets stay with me over the weekend where they can enjoy a calm, comfortable environment, plenty of companionship, and a routine that feels like home. Whether it’s extra playtime, relaxed lounging, or sticking closely to your pet’s usual schedule, I’m able to adjust my days around their needs. Being home allows me to provide a more hands-on, reliable experience so pets feel safe, cared for, and never rushed. 🐾 When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and relaxed environment where they can truly feel at home. I have a large, fully fenced yard, which allows for frequent outdoor time and safe play. Pets receive potty breaks about every hour, along with regular exercise and supervised yard time to keep them happy and active. Inside my home, pets are free to roam and settle wherever they feel most comfortable whether that’s lounging, playing, or relaxing nearby. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walk preferences, and any special instructions, to help reduce stress. My goal is to give pets plenty of attention, movement, and care throughout the day while making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and treated like part of the family. 🐾
