Pet Boarding Fairhaven

About: I’ve cared for cats and volunteered in cat rescue for over 20 years. I have always been the person friends, family, and neighbors trust with their pets. I currently volunteer in animal rescue, where I care for and foster kittens, senior cats, and cats with medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring their health. As a licensed Community Health Worker with over 20 years in healthcare, I bring patience, attention to detail, and reliability to every visit. I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routines, provide enrichment and affection, and keep owners updated with photos and detailed visit reports. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is currently one of my main priorities, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule and provide pets with the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as weekends and many holidays. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, medication, playtime, or companionship, I strive to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I communicate promptly and provide updates and photos after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing. Caring for animals is more than just a job to me—it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I have over 20 years of experience in healthcare, am a licensed Massachusetts Community Health Worker, and volunteer and foster with the MSPCA of Cape Cod and It’s All About the Animals, Rochester where I regularly care for and foster cats of all ages, including those requiring medications and special medical care. I understand how important it is to earn your trust, so I carefully follow every instruction regarding feeding, medications, walks, litter boxes, and household routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensure doors and gates remain secure, and always provide detailed updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

“I was very satisfied with Ryan's care of our dog. He communicated constantly before, during, and after the boarding to alleviate any confusion. He was also considerate in making her feel comfortable in her new environment. I appreciated that Ryan offered to give a a wash and nail trimming at a very affordable rate. This I thought set Ryan apart from other people that we have had watch our dog. We will certainly rebook with Ryan next time we are in the area.”

“Casey and Phil were amazing! This was the first time leaving our pup with someone other than family. They did everything to make it a comfortable stay for her and she did awesome. Casey sent daily updates which made our vacation stress free because we knew our pup was having a great time. Definitely will book them again and would highly recommend Casey and Phil.”

“Madison was so good to our Skye! We got pictures and videos daily and she was so easy to work with. We will be using her again if we need to leave our girl behind!”

“I highly recommend Ashley and her husband Nick. This was the first time leaving my 2 puppies and I felt comfortable the moment I met them. They were so kind, friendly, and welcoming to my 2 puppies and also to me. Ashley kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and I could tell that my puppies were having the best time.”

About: Mother of two kiddos and one doggy. I just took a break from watching dogs while we welcomed a new pup to our family. He’s a 1 year old Portuguese Water dog and he’s very friendly and loves to play. I’ve had dogs my whole life and love taking care of them. Please reach out with any questions about me. Thank you! Im currently a stay at home mom and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around most time frames and schedules. My days are usually spent at home with my youngest and our pup so another dog or two fit into our schedule perfectly. We have a semi fenced yard in a very quiet neighborhood that is close to a beach. We also have a fully fenced back deck where the dogs can be inside or outside at their leisure. We love to play and we have plenty of time for walks or playing fetch and cuddles.

“Erin went above and beyond the call of duty! She was flexible with drop off and pick up times, very responsive with communications, and extremely loving with our two dogs (English Springer Spaniel and English Cocker Spaniel), Buckle and Banjo. She treated them like her own, gave them lots of walks and cuddles... I’m not sure they wanted to leave! We will definitely take our babies back to Erin in the future!”

“Anna took great care of my 1 year old dog who is a ball of energy! 10/10 recommend great sitter and clear she is a genuine dog lover. Would 100% ask her to sit my dog again and fully vouch for anyone else to consider dropping theirs off to her! Thank you Anna!”

“Our dog Rosie had the best time at Brian’s house. This was our first time using Brian and we could not have been more pleased. The fenced in yard, lots of love, attention and play time with their dog, Jake and others that were there, as well as the cozy family and home setting. We loved getting a daily text and pictures of how Rosie was doing while we were away. We will use Brian’s services again!”

“Dan was amazing with our dog Daisy. He constantly updated us on how she was doing and sent a ton of pictures of her enjoying herself. She came back home exhausted from all the fun she had. I would totally recommend Dan.”

“Our mini goldendoodle, Evie, was well cared for by Paige and her family. Evie really enjoyed playing with the other dogs. Communication with Paige was great, too. I highly recommend her.”

About: About Me Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a house full of animals—sometimes five dogs at once, ranging from a St. Bernard to Chihuahuas, along with pot-bellied pigs, macaw parrots, hamsters, bunnies, cats, finches, and plenty more. Needless to say, caring for animals has always been second nature to me! I was also a vet tech in college, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals and a deeper understanding of their health, safety, and individual needs. Most recently, I became an approved foster home with Sandy Paws, which has been incredibly rewarding. My home currently includes quite the crew: Barbara Ann, my Persian cat; Pearl and Mabel, my two Boston Terriers; Taco, my bearded dragon; and Dunkin, my Polish Dwarf rabbit. I even have a koi pond! When your pet stays with me, their safety comes first. Dogs are on a leash 100% of the time when outside, and our cat never go outdoors. I also have a dedicated, private area where a dog can eat if they prefer to have their own space. I am happy to follow your pup’s exact feeding schedule and will stick closely to your instructions, including meal times, portions, medications, treats, or any other routine that helps them feel comfortable. I also take cleanliness seriously. I have a dedicated pet shower on my lower level, so after a fun stay, I can make sure your pup heads home happy, fresh, clean and squeaky clean! For the safety and comfort of every pet in my home, I do require a meet-and-greet before confirming a stay. This gives me a chance to meet you and your pup, learn about their personality and routine, answer any questions, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. My home is truly a place where animals are loved, cared for and treated like family. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is to give you complete peace of mind while they’re with me. It is really the best part of my day, every day! All of my pets are on a schedule that I know like the back of our paws. Upon waking up I take turns letting the dogs outside, feeding them, giving fresh water and then play time. My cat likes to tell me that it is feeding time so I follow her to the dish. I am not fenced so I make sure ALL dogs are 100% leashed when going outside. I have a very large yard for playing and a very private driveway and street to walk them. My house is a safe space for all of the animals to free roam but also have privacy when they need it. The downstairs bathroom has my "pet spa" and then the laundry room is filled with light and a linoleum floor in case any accidents or spills happen. I can feed the animal in there as well. If I am visiting your fur baby in your home, I will treat your house with as much love and respect as I do my own.

“Yunshu is always great with Lucy. She is our go to for having a great place to bring our dog. She is a great communicator and I always know that our dog is in loving, caring hands with Yunshu and her lovely family.”

“Siceley was awesome all the way around! From our initial contact, we were able to schedule a meet and greet right away, and meet her (and her family) in person. During COVID times, it's been a struggle getting to meet anyone in person and an in-person meet was important to us since this was our first time leaving our two dogs with someone other than family. You can imagine our nerves about leaving our babies with anyone. Fast forward to our boarding - there was constant communication, photos and videos being sent! It was so relieving to be able to see our babies while we were away. I'm certain our picky (and spoiled) dogs weren't the easiest for her, but she handled both of them very well. Forever grateful that we found Siceley!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, and giving pets lots of love and attention. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work per diem at my job and go to school part-time so I have a lot of free time after school during the week and on weekends. I have a friendly dog and 2 friendly cats. I provide a safe and clean environment and will follow their normal routines, and give them plenty of attention and care.

“Cherylee and Steven are great dog sitters! My dog is a slow to warm type and they were able to get her comfortable and eating quickly during her stay. They were also communicative and kept me up to date with how my dog is doing. I greatly recommend Cherylee and Steven!”

“My two dogs had a great time with Jennifer and her family. Very well taken care of, I highly recommend them and will use them again in the future.”

“Jean is an absolutely incredible sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is loved, cared for and feels safe during their stay. We can always tell after each visit how much sugar has loved her stay with Jean, and there are many video and photo updates to take the stress away.”

“Rebecca took excellent care of our fur baby Sophie. It was our first booking with her and she took the extra time to become knowledgeable about of dogs routine and quirks. She sent us daily photos and updates which were so appreciated, especially since our baby stayed with her for 9 days. I could tell she was receiving the best care possible. She was got all the snuggles, play, and love from Rebecca we could have asked for. I could tell my dog was totally comfortable with her. My dog also uses daily eye medication and she applied with medications along with warm compresses. She truly went above and beyond. She is highly knowledgeable about the needs of different breeds. I absolutely trust Rebecca with my fur baby and we will be using her again for our future boarding needs!”
