Doggy Day Care in Woodspring

About: Lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats and a horse and studying psychology in college. I believe quality time for bonding, play and affection is just as important as food/potty breaks for pet happiness. The best part of pet sitting is the quality time spent with your pet after all the business is done! I have a flexible schedule so I'm able to make most times work. I can walk, feed, water, scrub bowls, medicate (comfortable administering oral meds to dogs and cats), clean up as needed, play with and generally whatever is needed to keep your pet on a regular schedule. We have 2 friendly smaller dogs and a dog door & ramp straight out to the fenced backyard. The house is one level with only 1 step in and out. There are crates set up in multiple locations and there are ways to separate animals safely if ever needed. Someone is home all day every day, pets are never kept without heat or AC.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels — from playful young labs and doodles to senior dogs and cats needing extra patience and attention. I’m naturally calm and gentle, but I also love matching a pet’s energy through play, walks, and engagement. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Since I’m home from college for the summer, I have a very open and flexible schedule that allows me to fully focus on pet care. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, exercise, and regular updates for owners throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and companionship while adapting to each pet’s personality and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos for owners while they’re away.

About: I have a certificate as a vet assistant. I also have lots of experience dog sitting and even have a pet rabbit. I have taken care of younger dogs, as well as older dogs. I will be continuing my education to become a veterinary technician! I have all summer to care and love on your animals! I have one week where I will be on vacation but other than that I would love to be there for your animals and provide the care and love that they need!!! I do not have a fenced yard, and I currently have a bunny too. So it would be better to be at your home or if needed I can keep them at my house and can be caged if needed to be.

About: I grew up in a household with dogs. My dogs (and your dog) are part of my family. They are included in our routine. They are loved and well taken care. I am a stay at home mom. I can accommodate your dog’s need easily. Your dog will be loved and taken care as my own. Your dog must be kid and dog friendly. My children are taught to be respectful to all pets. My dog is neutered and friendly (and fully vaccinated). I take with my dog two long walks morning and evening but I also leave my dog in my yard some time during the day.

“Hi Robin. I loved seeing Gus hanging with other dogs. He was real happy. He ate your dog food for dinner. He sniffed it and looked at me and ate it up. See you next time”

About: I've always had animals and I always will. They soothe the soul and fill your heart with love. I'm here to be your respond caregiver! I work from home part time and have a ton of flexibility to care for other animals. It's something that brightens my day, too! Win-win. I follow directions provided carefully always leading with the pets trust and love for me. I am open and honest and understand the huge responsibility of an animal!

“Our Kai came home happy and tired! Kai loved the big fenced yard, it is the perfect space to run and play! When we dropped Kai off, he had a blast playing with Dan's dog, who is very sweet! Dan took great care of Kai and was friendly and communicative.”

About: I have taken care dogs and animals of all types my whole life. As a biologist I am comfortable with all types of animals and taking care of their medical needs. I am happy to do drop in visits, dog walks, or puppy train. I just relocated to MD to be with my active duty husband so other then taking care of our 4 kids I’ll have a ton of time to care for your best friend. I love dogs and I would be honored to care for yours. I have two friendly large dogs and we live a few short steps to a trail and lake. Happy to take your fur ball for long walks or jogs.

About: I have a long, sturdy fence that offers total peace of mind. Whether it's a puppy with zero recall or a senior who gets disoriented, they can enjoy the fresh air safely and off-leash under my constant supervision. I am happy to reinforce your consistency with house-training and basic manners. As a dedicated dog lover, pet care isn't a side task it’s my daily rhythm. I work from home, meaning your dog has constant companionship and immediate access to my secure, long-fenced yard for frequent "zoomies" or sunbathing. My long, secure fence is the backbone of my safety protocol. It allows for off-leash "zoomies" and exploration without the risk of bolting. I never leave dogs unattended in the yard; I am always out there with them.

“We were very pleased with the overall service. Our dogs came back happy and clean!”

About: My 14-yr-olds and I love dogs but can't have one long-term right now. We have had dogs in the past and have cared for lots of animals, including horses, cats, dogs, bunnies, rodents, and reptiles. We currently have one bunny living in our home who will be kept away from your pet. My kids are responsible and gentle, and know how to behave around animals. I had dogs my entire childhood as well, and have lots of experience keeping dogs healthy, happy, and entertained. My schedule is variable, but I can generally arrange to be gone for no more than four hours at a time. I am happy to discuss my schedule for the specific days you are requesting and will tell you before you book if I will be out of the house for longer than four hours on any day you are interested in booking. Dogs will have full run of the first floor of our home, with lots of comfy places to cuddle up, and will be played with in the yard several times a day. We have a fenced yard and a dog door (which we can lock off if desired). We will respect and follow your feeding guidelines and never offer food that you haven't approved. We won't be home 100% of the time, but will not accept a booking if we can't be home at least every four hours. We will only accept dogs from one household at a time, with a strong preference for family pets. We will not accept aggressive dogs. Crating only on request and if crate is provided.

About: My friends and family members have always called me the biggest dog person they know. I love dogs and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ll give your pup my undivided when we’re together! I specialize in walks, belly rubs, tugs of war, and treat dispensing. I’m comfortable with all breeds and have forged relationships with dogs who were “challenging” at first but ended up becoming my pals. I work from home most of the time and am very flexible with my weekends, so my schedule allows for me to board dogs, watch them during the day, and take them on long walks to get their daily exercise fix. I currently work from home and can provide hands on care 7 days a week! Your pet will get frequent potty breaks and can play in my back yard. I have a fenced in back yard and a warm home with plenty of toys and treats to keep your dog occupied and happy! I also live close to a park where there’s plenty of room for exercise.

About: I've taken care of pet dogs for thenlast 15 plus years I owned 3 Rottweilers and competed them in the akc so I can take care of small or big dogs I currently work from home and am available all the time to take care of dogs and actually have the time to play and take care of the needs of the puppies or older dogs I have a fenced yard and are capable of taking great care of the pet I also would provide play time for them where they can play inside or outside

“Jahnavi was great. She checked in mid day & provided many photos. I know my dog had a great time because he was plum tuckered out when he got home. Jahnavi even met me prior to our visit to make sure the dogs would get along. I would highly recommend.”

“Sneha was great! This was my first time trying out this app and she made the process easy. I was in a pinch and had reached out for daycare the day before I needed a sitter and she responded quickly. We had a meet and greet the same day. She sent frequent updates and was constantly in touch. I would definitely let my pup stay with her again!”

About: Every pet deserves significant attention, should be played with frequently, and attended to with great care. Every sentient being deserves this and I will provide your pet with exceptional care! I go on longs walks and spend time playing with our furry friends. Your pet will have a safe and fun stay. I am a trustworthy and mindful host who will ensure your pet is feeling comfortable at all times. Depending on owner preferences, we will nestle up to watch good movies, go on adventurous hikes and trail walks, explore parks, play games, practice training commands, and get a good brushing. I do not have an animal of my own at the house so yours will get my undivided vigilance. I am currently home all day so I can watch your pet nearly any time! They will get endless attention and love as my guest. I live in a spacious three story townhouse with many outdoor areas including sidewalks, quiet neighborhoods, my backyard, grass fields, trails, and a beach to walk your pet. We will have a great time outside together. There's extensive space inside as well for relaxing on the couch and staying cool when it's too hot outside. Owner: Thinks I'm going to "watch" their dog. Reality: We're about to PARTAY, wooo! Walk, run, play, eat, drink, belly rubs, games, treats, pets, explore, repeat.

“Super job! Both dogs had a great time and we appreciate Sara's flexibility in letting us have a day off. We will definitely engage her services again. ”

About: We have owned at least 2 dogs at any given time for the past 30 years and truly believe no home is complete without at least 4 paws. Our family currently has 3 dogs, with plenty of room for furry friend visitors in our 4500 square foot house and acre-and-a-half fenced in yard. I am a stay-at-home mom and my husband works from home so we are around the house at the beck and call of our dog guests 24/7. Our children have grown up with dogs of all kinds (we currently have a giant 3-year old male Great Pyrenees, a 14-year old mostly deaf female Bichon Frise, and a tiny 4 year old female chihuahua mix, who together have taught our kids how to be respectful and conscious of animals in all walks of life). That being said, for the safety of our household, we can only board dogs who are family-friendly. We are homebodies who enjoy staying in, so we are around and available nearly 24/7/365. We already care for our 3 dogs around-the-clock and would be honored to be trusted to add your dog to the mix as well. We have a fenced in yard to let dogs in and out on demand (which is already constant here anyway) and a laid back routine that can easily accommodate whatever else your pet might need. Our dogs are family members, and yours would be too for their entire stay with us. Never left alone and spoiled with attention, there isn’t a care in the world once they set foot in the door — fed, watered, walked, exercised, loved, and played with! Direct access from the house to the fenced-in backyard makes potty breaks a breeze and fresh air an easy bonus throughout the day.

“We were lucky to find Julie on short notice to take care of Niko for the evening. He being a little older and not used to be being away from us was a little nervous, but Julie did a great job and we would definitely avail her services again if needed.”
