Doggy Day Care Will-O-Dean Acres

“Amazing! Ivy was fantastic!! Needed a last-minute sitter and couldn't have lucked out better. Got the most adorable pics and updates. Will book again!!”

“Dawn is a great dog sitter. She took lots of photos, and her dog Rice was a wonderful host too! She took care of Ruby and Toasty for the day in her home as a "trial run" to make sure all 3 dogs were compatible so we will definitely be using her in the future for extended stays. Highly recommend.”

Jessica B.

“Paige was extremely caring and kind to our doggo Buttercup. She took extra care to make sure she felt safe in her home and get her walks, treats, and even cuddle time. Paige regularly updated us on the status of Buttercup and took the cutest pictures, too! Highly recommend Paige for your dog-sitting needs!!”

“Elayne is great, we booked her for daycare with our <4 month old puppy. She sent lots of updates and pictures! Nora came back exhausted (love that for us). Brownie points go to her pup. He's the sweetest and a great companion for any pup!”

Caylin L.

“Sloane is the BEST!! Her updates are detailed with lots of photos, and as an anxious dog mom, I really appreciate that! Cooper has such a great time with her and always comes home tired from all the fun. 10/10, cannot recommend more!”

Palak P.

“Erica was absolutely wonderful with Missy! She was so gentle and caring, and I could tell Missy felt relaxed and happy in her care. I really appreciated Erica’s attention and kindness, and I’m definitely looking forward to booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

Tayla W.

“Andrew was fantastic with my anxious pup! He provided updates and made my dog feel right at home. Highly recommend.”

Courtney C.

“This was our first time using Arden, and we could tell right away that she’s wonderful with dogs — especially with Rooney! We were well informed with updates and photos throughout the day, and it was clear Rooney was happy, safe, and well cared for. Arden took her on walks and let her relax on the gated back porch, which she loved. We’ll definitely book with Arden again!”

About: I used to foster, so I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs: big, small, anxious, loud, and pups with severe health issues. I know every dog is different, and I genuinely love getting to learn their little quirks, routines, and personalities. I work from home. Working from home allows me to keep a flexible schedule and make time for lots of potty breaks. On weekends, if your dog likes it, I’d be able to take them to a dog park for some extra exercise. I take in one dog at a time, so your pup will have my full attention! I have one dog of my own, a 5-pound chihuahua. I live in a three-story townhome, so your dog must be able to climb stairs OR be comfortable with me picking them up and setting them down.

“Still in recovery from an attack by a large dog, our little seven pound puppy Maui needed extra TLC. Martine and Ron were as loving and caring as we could ever had hoped for. I recommend them most highly and without reservation!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, all of them being rescues. I have experienced two of those dogs dealing with severe separation anxiety and one of them (my current) being a youthful active puppy. I have the patience and experience for both. I also have experience with fostering two pups! I currently work full time from home 8:00am-5:30pm. I am available before and after work M-F OR all day night and all night on the weekends! I can also do overnight check ins any day of the week. I currently have two fur babies. One I’ve had for three years, he’s a rescue. The other is 7 months and I got her about 4 months ago! I love my doggies and would love to share my love with yours. I can take them for a walk, to your neighborhood dog park, throw toys and engage with them or simply just hang out!

“Leidy is great! I felt really safe and comfortable leaving my dog with her. She gave us plenty of pictures of our dog Stella and it was really comforting since this was our first sitter in the NoVa area. My wife and I will definitely use Leidy again in the future.”

“Tembo enjoyed his stay with Ma and the time he spent relaxing, cozy-ing up for the pets, and sunbathing looking out the window! :)”

About: I have extensive experience working with animals, including working closely with veterinarians, fostering adoptable dogs, providing pet care for family and friends, and having many different kinds of furry family members over the years. Let my experience give you peace of mind while you’re away—your fur babies are in good hands. When you book me for pet sitting, your furry family member is absolutely the priority. Do they like to be active? Then that’s what we’re doing. Are they lazy? I can snuggle with the best of them. Do they need to go out often? Got it. Two walks a day? Done. Whatever it is, you can count on me to provide the best care for your best bud. My pet sitting (and boarding) spots have gone quickly so far, so if my availability matches your needs, send me a message and we can set up an initial meeting so you and your loved ones can meet me and we can all make sure I’m the right fit. While caring for your pets in your home, I can also water your plants, bring any packages inside, put trash bins at the curb if it’s trash day, etc. Just let me know what you need and I’ll let you know if I can help with it. I apply the same level of care to boarding. My fees are a little lower since I don’t have to travel to your pet, but in my home, your pet’s still my #1 priority. I provide the same attention I’d give them in your home if not more, because I know my environment isn’t the one they’re used to. Whether your furry fam needs a fun walk, a cozy place to stay, or loving care while you're away, I'll treat them with the same patience, kindness, and attention I'd give my own. Regardless if your pup is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or a senior who enjoys a slower pace, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. You can count on me for reliable communication, photo updates, and plenty of cuddles, playtime, and exercise. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet has a great experience. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and become someone you can trust whenever you need dependable, compassionate care. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week. I do my best to work around your pet's routine to help them feel comfortable and keep their day as normal as possible. Whether you need regular care or last-minute help, I'll communicate promptly and do everything I can to meet your needs. When visiting your home, I leave no trace other than a happy pet. At my house, I have a fenced in yard, pool, dog door I can open or close if your pet isn’t good with those, treats, toys, and comfy spots to rest. The dog I had for 15 years (who recently passed) would absolutely vouch for these little sunny spots that show up in different parts of my house across the day. Regardless of location, I will stick to your pet’s schedule and make sure their needs are met.

About: I have grown up with dogs in the house (6) since I was a child! I have had 2 small dogs (a Pomeranian and a Shorkie) for 8 years and they get tired of each other so they love making new dog friends! I work from home so have the ability to be around your dog(s) 24/7! I work from home Monday - Friday and not mandatory to go into the office though I do love to go on Tuesdays but can miss it if you need your dog watched! I have 2 very friendly dogs to keep your dog(s) company and entertained! I don’t have a fenced in back yard yet but I have the capability to take them on walks and have a large townhome where they have space to roam and I can even crate your dog if you’d like but I let mine on the couch and sleep in bed with me!

About: As a work-from-home professional, I can keep your fur baby company all day long, and check in multiple times a day. Does your energetic herding dog need twice-daily walks or visits to the dog park? No problem -- they're just like the Australian Shepherd I grew up with and the Rough Collie I petsit regularly. I am also an ardent cat lover with experience caring for my aging childhood cat (age 20+), as well as a skittish rescue with seasonal allergies. If you have a senior cat who needs extra care or shy kitten who needs daily medication, I'm the petsitter for you. I have an extremely flexible schedule and can accomodate boarding every day of the week. I'm also available for daycare across Raleigh, although I may have more limited availability on Wednesday and Thursday nights, as well as Sunday afternoons and evenings. Feel free to ask about my schedule! I live in a townhouse with a small, fenced-in patio and my one cat. She is typically kept in a separate part of the house during boarding, so I can accommodate animals who are reactive to cats. The yard is great for smaller dogs who enjoy being outside, but I can also care for larger animals who need lots of exercise!

“Chance had so much fun during his first day care!! He’s not easy to take care of since he needs constant supervision, but Alyssa did an awesome job! He took a nice long nap after his day care session. We would definitely be using Alyssa to watch our puppy in the future!”

“Thank you so much for petting Sam !”

“Absolutely amazing caregivers!!! My little angel had a blast with Yamy and Alfonso. They are completely understanding and gentle to my little fur baby. 110% booking again!!”

About: When it comes to care for your canine family member, I want you to have complete peace of mind as if you were there yourself. I will show up at the time we have arranged. I will let you know I arrived (if you wish). I will send you a photo of your baby (if you like). Solid communication and decades of experience caring for dogs--including difficult dogs--set me apart. I can help house train your puppy. I absolutely love geriatric dogs. Big dogs are great. Loud dogs are fine. Jumpy dogs are A-ok. As a volunteer in dog rescue and a dog foster home, I am accustomed to managing many combinations of dogs and behavior. Only the best care for your baby! I am available for mid-day drop-ins or walks, as well as overnight boarding in my home. I work for myself so I can prioritize great care for your dog! My home is truly set up all around the concept of caring for dogs. With an extra-tall chain link fence with extra support posts, to careful outdoor supervision, to extra tall baby gates in doorways, to all the supplies needed, we are accustomed to dog fostering, petsitting and managing dog care in creative ways. We are experienced dog fosters, used to introducing dogs to one another. We have two household dogs who are accustomed to other dogs coming in and out. In your home, the specifics will depend upon your situation and the details/requests you provide.
