Doggy Day Care in Duxbury

About: I grew up on a small farm and have always loved creatures great and small. I have always had pets and have been a caregiver for friend’s dogs for years. I am now home full time and welcome the opportunity to slather love on more critters 🩷 I am currently home full time so have all the time in the world to spend with the animals. In warm weather I can leave the back door open allowing dogs to come in and out as the please. I have a fenced yard and a sweet 6 year old plott hound (Mojo), many fish, an axolotl (Buggie), and a hamster (Donut). My husband and I have two boys aged 10 and 12 who love animals as much as I do.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover who grew up begging for a dog and taking any chance I could to babysit and care for friends’ and neighbors’ pups. As soon as I graduated college, I welcomed my first dog—a golden retriever who was the center of my world. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all kinds: high-energy, mischievous troublemakers, dogs with medical needs, seniors, and everything in between. I’m comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I truly enjoy getting to know what makes each dog unique. After meeting my husband, we added a rescue to our household and regularly help care for and babysit dogs for family and friends. After saying goodbye to my beloved Golden, our house has felt a little empty. While we’re not ready to add another full time dog, we love welcoming an extra companion to our home for short term stays! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve while you’re away. I am a mom of two young children and currently at home with them and our rescue dog. I said goodbye to my senior golden last year and have missed having that extra companion. I have plenty of space both indoors and outdoors, and lots of time to devote to your dog. I have a dog-safe, child-proof home. My yard is partially fenced, and I also have an electric fence available for dogs trained to use one (my dog does not use it). My house is located in a quiet, wonderful neighborhood with sidewalks and low-traffic roads—perfect for safe, enjoyable walks.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and fish. I have experience taking care of my own animals and my sisters dogs when needed. Ive handled health conditions, tank maintenance and im good with managing feeding and care schedules and keeping animals calm in different places. Im patient, observant, calm and I take pet safety very seriously and prioritize keeping pets comfortable. Im currently available and flexible and will respond quickly! Im currently unemployed so I have A LOT of free time on my hands and would love to take care of your pets! I love dogs and it breaks my heart not being able to have one live with me so I would love to babysit your furry friends instead Im in an apartment with 2 cats and fish! Im not allowed to have a dog but I can have dogs visit and love when my siblings dogs come to visit for the weekend occasionally! There’s woods next to my apartment and two grass spots in my complex perfect for dogs ! My cats are older, have no problem with dogs but are unsure about cats so I would keep them separate. I don’t have a car right now but will always use uber in case of emergency or to go to a pet owners home to watch there pets!

“Amanda was absolutely fantastic with my fur baby and took Sasha in last minute due to an unexpected van repair visit for our camper van. Thank you so much for loving my baby while I was at the mechanic shop!!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and love spending time with them. I’ve cared for my own pets for years, including raising and training my current dog, who is now four years old. I’m experienced with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications if applicable, and I always treat animals with love and respect. While most of my experience is personal, I bring a reliable and caring approach to every pet as if they were my own! I work from home four days a week, and I am usually local on weekends, so my schedule is flexible. I’m home throughout the day and can provide potty breaks when needed and playtime during lunch hour and in the evenings. My schedule makes it easy to pop by during lunch or evenings to check in, feed, and give some love and attention as needed. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a labrador retriever who gets along with other animals and a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play. I keep a close eye on all pets, maintain their usual routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I prefer to host pets who know basic commands and can respect my dog and home.

About: I have pet-sat for friends and neighbors for several years. I’m comfortable with walks, feedings, and making sure each pet gets plenty of love and playtime. I focus on keeping pets happy and comfortable while maintaining their normal routines. I am currently home during the day with a flexible schedule. I love getting out for fresh air and exercise. I only care for one pet family at a time so I am a perfect option for dogs that don’t get along well with other dogs or prefer to be the main attraction. Getting the opportunity to walk, play and meet your fur babies needs would brighten my day! Safety is my top priority. With your dog being my only guest I can give ensure they get personalized attention. I never leave dogs unattended outside or off-leash in unfenced areas. I am familiar with dog body language and know how to handle dogs of all sizes safely.

“Zachary was amazing to welcome my sassy chihuahua Coco Chanel. She is a lot to handle but seems like she had an amazing day. We will definitely go back to Zachary for day/night care. Xoxo”

About: Genuine love and a deep connection with dogs is what sets me apart as a dog sitter. With over 24 years of experience raising and caring for dogs, I treat every dog like they are my own child. I provide a loving, caring, and safe environment where your dog will feel comfortable and adored. You can trust that your pet will receive the highest level of attention and care in my hands. I work remotely and have plenty of time to care for your special dog! I require minimal notification and am very flexible. Just communicate and we can figure something out! Your dog will enjoy a spacious and safe environment on our large property, where they’ll have plenty of room to explore. Though we don’t have a fence, I ensure they’re always on a leash/lead or supervised during outdoor time. Regular walks, playtime, and socializing with our friendly Golden Retriever will make your dog feel right at home and part of our family.

“Thank you! Our Gunnar is so happy (and tired)!”

About: I have taken care of and walked German Shepherd’s huskies, and Alaskan malamute all my life and and Land Seers now. I can handle very big dogs and make sure they are under control. I do DoorDash and Instacart in my spare time but my real passion is taking care of my great four hounds at the house every day and night. I can take care of dogs and they will have fun with the other guys and also probably best to sit in at your house to take care of your furry ones there.

“Trish was an absolute delight! She was incredibly warm and caring and clearly gave our pup a lot of love and attention. We appreciated her communication and photos throughout the day. We’re looking forward to working with her next time we’re in the area!”

About: We first adopted a 12 year old dog from the shelter and at the age of 17, we had to put him down. It broke our hearts and decided to adopt others in his (Juno) memory. My husband and I have adopted 5 dogs since then and they are a great pack. We have a large yard and doggy door so they can come and go as they please. They go for walks and they're very well mannered, socialized dogs. I graduated from Animal Behavior College in May 2017 and train dogs as well and I'd be able to help with training if needed. We've been fostering dogs for over 5 years and love knowing we're helping them become socialized and able to find them forever homes.

“Tracey was excellent! Warm, responsible and communicative. She took great care of my senior dog who had an excellent day with her.”

“Julia takes wonderful care of Fox. He is so excited to see her in the morning and comes home exhausted after being there. She always gives Fox the attention he needs and makes him feel comfortable which is so important because he has separation anxiety. I can leave Fox with Julia and know he will be well taken care of”

“Jeremy and Rui were very flexible, friendly, and mindful. Our dog had a good time and they made sure to help him feel at home. He can get separation anxiety, especially as this was a very short day while we attended a wedding; Jeremy and Rui reassured him and he had fun playing with their dog. They also sent pictures.”
