Doggy Day Care in Silver Spring

About: I’ve raised my own dog since she was a puppy. I have trained and cared for 15 rescued dogs through this agency, including 4 puppies. I believe that every dog is unique and should be treated accordingly. When it comes to my parenting style, I am very patient and consistent. I love playing with dogs, going on long walks and visiting dog parks. We have a declawed cat named Miley Cyrus. For the most part, Miley gets along with all the dogs that come into our home. She does have her little diva moments when she gets a bit sassy with the dogs, but she is not aggressive at all. Overall, I am an outgoing, caring and observant individual. Your dog will absolutely love spending time with me! I’m currently working from home, so that allows me more time to dedicate to your pet. I'm available for boarding, check-ins and walks during the week. I love to give dogs the attention and love they deserve. I understand being on a schedule and routine, so I’m able to follow the care instructions of the owners. I’ve had my share of doggy sickness and I know how to properly look out for symptoms and take care of the pups. We live in a safe and dog-friendly apartment complex. There are tons of dogs to socialize with during walks and I love to go to parks for walks as well.

“Katherine was great. I made an appointment at the last minute and she was able to accommodate my needs. She provided alot of pictures throughout the day.”

“I was really impressed with Jason N. and can't recommend him highly enough! My pup is a shy rescue with separation anxiety, but she immediately felt right at home at Jason N.'s and was having so much fun with the wonderful resident dog that she barely noticed when I left. I received regular updates on her day that completely assuaged any concerns I'd normally have, and when I picked her up at the end of the day I found her happy, relaxed, and all played-out. Having someone I really trust to watch Stella is an immense piece of mind, and I'll definitely be calling Jason N. next time I need a sitter.”

“Paul was great. My dog is anxious around new people, especially men, and Paul was patient with her and helped her get comfortable. He also took her on long walks which she needs because she has a lot of energy so I appreciated how tired she was when we got home.”

“Julio was friendly and gracious when we dropped Pepé off. He sent photos and updates throughout the day. Our little guy enjoyed meeting new friends and playing in the yard. If we stay a bit longer or return to the area we will definitely be reaching out to Julio!! Thanks so much!!”

“Stephanie took wonderful care of my puppy Barry. He played with her puppy and loves staying at her house. Would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for daycare and puppy care.”

“Great communication and very happy with the daycare visit as a first time app user! Will definitely book again if I’m in the area!”

“Brioche had a blast with Johanna and her dog Scruffy! It was clear she was in good hands with Johanna and her dog Scruffy is very social and playful and they had a great day playing together.”

“We are so thankful to Harriman for taking such good care of Tortie during the day for a week! Tortie has separation anxiety and has a hard time being alone, but he seems to have felt comfortable here. Harriman sent lots of photos and video updates, which reassured me that our dog was doing well.”

“For as long as I know Rebecca, she’s always been a great dog owner, Charlie Brown (her dog), gets the greatest care any pet can get: long walks 2 or 3 times a Day, she is taking him out for potties very 4 hours, and the snuggles, almost all the time. She is respectful and serious when it comes to caring for any dog.”

“An absolute doll ! My pup loved it here, when he got home he was koeddd ( exactly what I wanted) I will absolutely bring him back, great communication and he looked happy the entire time.”

“This is the second time Sofia took care of Scoot and she did such a wonderful job with him that he was excited to go with her and felt at home with her!”

“I called victoria to sit with benny on very short notice, like 30 minutes, and she was able to accommodate us. He has settled in over there nicely, and has seemed to be in fine spirits both days I picked him up”

“Kelly and Matty were wonderful hosts! Patty had a great time at their home and loved playing with their dog Ringo. They sent lots of photo updates and Patty left happy and tired. I would definitely recommend them and use them again.”

“Fitz came home from her daycare stay with Amanda and Andrew so happy and ready for a nap! Amanda has been so easy to communicate with, and hosted us for a brief meet and greet before Fitz’s first stay. She asked lots of great questions about how to keep Fitz safe and happy, and drop-off/pick-up were a breeze. We so appreciate the peace of mind knowing our little girl is being treated like family. Amanda also sent pictures during the day so we could see our pup living her best life. We (and especially Fitz) can’t wait until next time!”

“Shantell loves what she does and it shows!!! From the moment my dog and I walked in, she made us feel welcome. So thoughtful and accommodating, my super shy pup warmed so quickly!! We will be repeat customers for sure!!! ”

“Sophie and Kelley were 10/10 sitters for my pup. They had great communication and were willing to set up a meet and greet beforehand. I felt so comfortable entrusting my pup in their care. Lando can’t wait to go back!!”

“Frankie has started to care for my senior fur babies. It is really hard for Leah to separate from me, but Frankie made her feel very comfortable. I will be traveling in a few weeks and the test run with Frankie was amazing. My fur babies Luke and Leah have always traveled with me and I am looking forward to them staying with her. Frankie is one of the best people in the world to take care of your pet and I am glad that I found her.”

“Katrina was wonderful watching Oreo! She sent multiple photos and was very responsive. Oreo has separation anxiety but he seemed to settle right in at her apartment. When my plans changed and I picked him up a little early, she still offered to make sure he got in a quick walk before I got him. Would definitely book again!”

“Justin was an excellent dog sitter for my two Austrslian Shepherds. He was thorough and responsible taking care of Luke and Jasmine as well as we would. He gave them so much love and attention. It was so nice not to worry and enjoy our vacation. We loved how he sent pictures and updates to keep us updated on how happy they were. We will book Justin again for our next adventure so Luke and Jasmine can have their fun vacation with him.”
