Doggy Day Care Woodlake

“Nancy took my booking request at the last minute and accommodated my whippet puppy, Walter, on the 4th of July. As soon as we got there I knew he would be in good hands. She is experienced, knowledgeable, kind, and her property is perfect for doggy daycare. I will definitely use her again!”

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years. I was so lucky to grow up in a home that was the local Noah’s Arc. This childhood formed my commitment and love to animals. About 20 years ago, I decided to enter the world of pure bred dogs and have been an avid exhibitor and breeder of Pointers and Ridgebacks focused always on good temperaments and health. I love dogs and really believe it’s important that each animal I care for, feels at home, comfortable, pampered, exercised and loved. I have 4 dogs that are super casual and it has been very easy to bring animals into my home. I will only take 1 or 2 dogs at a time, as I want to be able to provide the best care possible for them. Your animals are treated as though they are mine and the care and love they will experience can only be exceeded by you. It’s always stressful for animals to be away from their families, so the more I can do to relieve this stress, the better I feel. I always tease my clients that their dogs may come home a little spoiled. I’m very much available all day really to take care of the dogs as my schedule is very flexible. In addition my brother lives with me and he helps me take care of the dogs. There is always a person at our house while your dog will be visiting. I also offer a military discount for those that have or are serving our beautiful country. I do not work outside of the home, which provides me with a lot of flexibility to provide dedicated care to your pets all day. I think it's important dogs that stay at my house receive the same amount of attention as they would at home and as my dogs do. I also believe it's important not to disrupt their daily routine, so I work closely with owners to understand each Dog needs.

“Amber saved our lives when we needed a last-minute sitter for our little Ebi. She was lovely when we dropped her off, and we could tell how much she loves dogs. She was very communicative all day, sending pictures and keeping us updated on how Ebi was doing 😊 She’s actually taking care of Ebi for two days in a row.”

About: I do not take payment outside of the rover app or any other forms of payment! I have taken care of animals big and small for most of my life; goats, chickens, cats, dogs, geese, rabbits, fish, snakes, rats, geckos, tortoises, pigeons, and probably more. I have pet sit for many friends and family members, and now that I have a cat of my own, I know how much trust one must put in someone to watch their pet. I have also cared for animals in a professional setting at Madison Children's Museum (where I cared for chickens, pigeons, crested geckos, turtles, tortoises, and rats) and was trained in their care. I am used to feeding my cat and cleaning her litter box every morning. Along with this, I sweep because she is a menace who launches her litter across the room. I will treat your pet as if they are my own family, talking to them as if they can respond, and giving them all the love I have. I will also follow any special instructions you have for me, and try to keep your pet on their preferred schedule - I want you both to be as comfortable as possible.

“Enjoyed the photos from Kristin during Buddy Boy’s time with her. We were pleased with the care she gave him and thoughtfulness she gave us.”

“Clarissa was great! She was so easy to work with and gave us several updates with photos throughout the day. She took wonderful care of our dog, including administering eye drops. We will definitely use her again as a pet sitter. Added bonus- she has a super sweet dog of her own that kept our dog great company 😁”

“We had an amazing experience with Ashley and couldn’t recommend her more! We were in town for just one day and wanted to visit the Ark Encounter, so we needed to find someone on short notice to watch our Golden Retriever, Ocean. Ashley was available with only a day’s notice and was incredibly responsive from the start. I’ll admit, I was a little apprehensive since I had never used Rover before, and I knew from her profile that she had four large dogs of her own. But Ashley quickly put my mind at ease. She was so kind, welcoming, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took excellent care of Ocean and went above and beyond by sending photos throughout the day, which meant so much to us and really helped us relax and enjoy our time. It was obvious Ocean was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We are so grateful we found Ashley and would absolutely use her services again. Highly recommend!”

“Wow really can’t brag about enough on MrsShaine! She took us last minute traveling from Louisiana to Columbus GA for my son’s turning blue graduation from the Army then we decided to extend our vacation to the Arc, the sitter I had booked thought it best I find someone with no animals so I was very Thankful for her! She was so incredibly nice and I felt very safe leaving Chopper with her! Communication was awesome as well! If I could give 10 stars I would she saved our vacation quite literally! Even though we own a level 4 clinger for a Pitbull & it was his very first day @doggy daycare! My family thanks you so much MrsShaine!”

“Rachel and her family were fantastic with my energetic 1.5 yo Barbet, DollyP🌸! Rachel was very accommodating! I needed to make a last minute change in my schedule and she was willing to keep Miss DollyP several hours after our agreed upon pickup time! Thankful! Highly recommend her and her family!”

“Laura did a fantastic job watching my puppy Alma! She watched her for multiple days and each day Alma came home a happy pup. I got a detailed report on the day and felt very secure trusting Alma in her care.”

“I was visiting family in the area, and I left my 40 lb female husky with Kimberly for the day. My husky gets anxious in new environments and loves to be outside. Kimberly helped her get acquainted with the new surroundings and took her for SO many walks! When I picked my husky up at the end of the day, she was very happy and very tired! I would definitely contact again and recommend Kimberly. I felt very comfortable, she was very communicative & clearly cared about my husky having a good day too!”

“Ollie had a great time! Brent sent pics and was a great communicator! If we're back in Lexington, we will definitely have Ollie stay here again!”

“Andrew and his family were amazing sitters. The responsiveness and communication was off the charts. My dog is typically afraid but with Andrew, she quickly became acclimated and comfortable. I was able to see my pet throughout her stay with Andrew in pictures and videos. She appeared to be so happy getting exercise and exploring with his daughter. Do not hesitate to book Andrew! He is such an outstanding sitter and I would recommend him to anyone in the area for their pet.”

About: Hi, I’m Amber! Having grown up around animals and volunteered with several animal rescues, I bring experience caring for pets of all kinds—from gentle seniors to energetic puppies.

During walks or drop-in visits, I make it a priority to keep you connected to your pet’s day—you can always expect detailed updates, notes, and plenty of photos! I work in education, which means I’m available evenings, weekends, and throughout the holidays—perfect for keeping your pet happy and cared for when you’re busy or away. I offer drop-in visits designed to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free.

About: As a dog owner and foster, I have experience caring for senior dogs, nervous rescues, and multiple dogs at once. I prioritize individualized care, patience, and creating a stress-free environment. I work from home full-time, giving me the flexibility to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship so pets feel safe and comfortable. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I follow their established routine for meals, walks, exercise, and rest. I provide attentive care, patience, and an stress-free environment while making sure owners stay updated. I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and two senior dogs who are calm and friendly companions.

About: I grew up on a farm in NC surrounded by animals, and dogs have always been a big part of my life. Caring for pets comes naturally to me, and I enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality and needs. I recently moved to Lexington with my husband, who is a veterinarian, which has given me an even greater appreciation for pet health and well-being. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy, a senior needing extra patience, or somewhere in between, I'll provide attentive, reliable care while you're away! I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or simply providing companionship, I follow each owner's instructions closely and treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. As a pet owner myself to an 11½-year-old Maltipoo, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family member.

About: I am currently a small animal veterinarian licensed in both Kentucky and Georgia, but have been in the veterinary medical field since 2009, starting out as a vet assistant. While I have enjoyed helping animals throughout my veterinary career, I have decided to step away from the long, demanding hours of clinical medicine in order to have a better work-life balance so that I can spend more time with my family. Pet sitting allows me to continue doing what I love, which is caring for animals. As a veterinarian, I have worked with all ages and breeds of dogs and cats, and I am comfortable administering medications, caring for senior pets, and supporting animals with special medical needs. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy or a senior with more in depth needs, my goal is to make every pet feel comfortable and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I will treat your pet(s) as if they were my own, providing regular updates, photos, and plenty of attention so you can have peace of mind and enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in experienced, compassionate hands. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or help with a pet who needs a little extra time and attention, I'd love to meet you and your best friend! I look forward to helping your pet stay happy, healthy, and stress-free while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a veterinarian transitioning away from full-time clinical practice to create more time for my family, I now have the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care for pets throughout the day. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or medication administration, I can easily build my schedule around each pet's individual needs. Caring for animals has always been more than just my profession, it's something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every day. When caring for pets in your home, I strive to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away.
