Doggy Day Care in Vineyard Haven

“Alyne was great, Bruce too, both welcoming our dog Auggie into their home. I liked her approach asking plenty of questions in advance to ensure Auggie was happy and comfortable. Always hard to know what our dog thought, but he was happy being left and pleased to see us on our return! We would happily rebook”

“Our puppy enjoyed her afternoon with Julia and Bryan - she looked so happy in all of the pictures and videos that we received, and she was very tired at the end of the day. Julia and Bryan were very timely in their responses and easy to get tin touch with prior to booking, as well as during the stay. We will definitely use Julia & Bryan again on our next trip!”

“Maisy had a good time and seemed very comfortable at Dan's. The clincher was when I brought her back the second day and she went running in wagging her tail. The house and backyard are well set up for dogs. His dog Mateo is a sweetheart.I would definitely recommend Dan.”

“Rachel and her husband were great :) a huge help watching our Bailey during the last day of Beach Road Weekend. She took bailey for 2 shoreside walks near her house. Bailey was all butt wiggles when we dropped her off, definitely sensed a kind dog family and she was right :) Highly recommend!”

“Maria was amazing! Ruby had so much fun and was so tired when we picked her up. Maria was very accommodating and communicative all throughout the process and stay. We would definitely use her again!”

“Mary cared for my dog Ginger overnight and theservicemydog received was wonderful. Mary took Ginger for frequent walks in the quiet neighborhood. Mary is caring and has experience taking care of dogs. I am sure you will be completely satisfied with the dog sitting service Mary provides. My dog Ginger is a puppy with a lot of energy and Mary was patient and caring with Ginger.”

“Amazing! Shannon and Tim took the extra steps to make sure Romeo was comfortable with them and safe within their home (I.e. stairs). They walked and played ball with him so he had lots of exercise which resulted in sleeping 12 hrs and I had to wake him up 8am. Highly recommend.”

“Caroline was amazing! Eloise had the best time at her house with her and her dogs. She was very flexible with scheduling and kept me updated the whole day on how Eloise was doing. Eloise was pooped after I picked her up and can't wait to go back!”

About: Hi! I’ve been surrounded by pets since I was born and I love all animals: dogs of all sizes and cats! Friends and family often ask me to watch their pets while they’re out of town and know they can rely on me to care for their pets as if they’re my own. I’m currently working fully remote and have a very flexible, asynchronous schedule, which is ideal for dog-walking and sitting. Either I or someone else will be home with your dog all day. I like to breaks throughout the day and walk my own dog. I have a fully fenced-in backyard and live in a safe, quiet, low-traffic neighborhood. I live close to the beach and a golf course and love going for scenic walks. I never let a dog off their leash while on a walk. While at home, I love to be in the backyard and gardening, and will keep your pet with me. They will never be alone in the yard. At night, your dog is welcome to share my couch or bed as we wind down with a movie or good book. Your dog will feel comfortable and at home! My dog has not had any issues with other dogs, but please let me know if your dog shouldn’t be with another dog or cats. Thank you!

“I can honestly say Isabelle is the best dog mom. You can just tell by how happy her dog Poppy is. She is active and attentive to all dogs. Any dog that gets to spend time with her will enjoy every minute of it.”

“Eric McDevitt is one of the most loyal and compassionate people I know. For over 13 years, I have entrusted him with the overnight care of my own dog, Nyla, who can be somewhat challenging as she can be fear aggressive nature towards other dogs. He is my emergency contact for my dog and I trust him without question. I am not alone; Eric provides walks and overnight care to other dogs in the area, and he strives to make sure his own dog Sandy has the BEST dog life, ensuring a great healthy diet and plenty of exercise. He is knowledgeably about both human and pet medical first response and maintains a calm demeanor when the situation warrants. It is without any reservation that I highly recommend him to be part of your organization.”

“Marc has taken care of my pets for many years, he always prioritizes the care of pets above all else. He is very capable with any size animal, and is smart about dog needs if they need space and awareness when walking by other dogs, noticing stress signals, deescalating any challenging situations between pets.”

“We had a great experience with Jacquelyn. She took awesome pictures for us, and it was clear that Quincy had a fabulous time getting to know her dogs and enjoying his day. We will definitely return.”

“Laurel was great with my golden retriever Zoey. I was nervous leaving her for the first time with a sitter, but she put my mind at ease. She also sent photos and updates and was very quick to respond any time we texted her. I would definitely use her again if/ when I come back to the area.”

“Bekka is wonderful! Her dogs played so well with mine and my pup couldn’t have had a better experience. She provided thoughtful updates throughout the day, including a video and photos. My dog is energetic and it takes a lot to tire her, but she was wiped after a fun day with her new friends! 100% recommend and will book again. ?”

“Jacquelyn truly loves what she does and the pets respond to her. Jacquelyn loved and played with my little sweethearts....actually they took to her immediately at our initial meet and greet! We loved getting daily updates and pics. I recommend Jacquelyn hands down!”

“Sam was great for our two goldens! Sam and his wife were kind from the get go and accepted both dogs into their house with open arms. We would certainly book again with them!”

“Sofie always watches my two dogs whenever my family and I are on vacation. I have two large Labradoodles, and Sofie does an amazing job at controlling them on walks and taking good care of them overall. She treats them with care and respect and they are always so excited whenever they see her.”

“Jackson is a down-to-earth fellow who has a remarkable capacity to listen. He's the kind of guy who will hear every word you say, and really take it to heart. He also contains a lovely balance between being fun and playful, while also being grounded and trustworthy. I have the feeling any dog would love him :)”

“Sonja stayed with my four dogs for six weeks this year while I was on an extended trip. It was much more of a challenge than either of us expected. My two big mutts kept finding new ways to escape my fence. Despite the initial agreement that they could simply be allowed to run outside in the very large fenced-in yard and would not require actual walking, the circumstances made walking them several times daily after all, and they enjoyed frequent good, long walks. I know them because we had fitted them with GPS trackers to aid finding them when they escaped, and I could track their walks from Hawai’i! We new that my two mini-dachshunds, 17-1/2 year old litter mates, were very frail and could conceivably die while I was away. Sadly, neither of them survived and Sonja and her back-up, Daron, were simply incredible. They handled vet emergencies, communication with me, and then dealing with my decision for each of the dachsies, 16 days apart. They even FaceTimed with me both times so I could say goodbye, first to George and then to Gracie. They buried the pups where I had requested... and this summer the lilies they planted there bloomed so beautifully, reminding me of my treasured canine companions... and the wonderful people who brought such caring to George and Gracie’s end of life. Sonja will be here next weekend when I leave for a wedding. There is no way to describe the complete peace and comfort I feel, knowing my beloved furkids are being cared for with such love, concern and wisdom. Sonja is, very simply, the best there is.”
