Doggy Day Care in Hopkinton

“Albert and Amanda are just amazing. Miss Nova had a blast visiting for the day and they helped introduce her and socialize with the other dogs. I felt so comfortable leaving her and so proud when we received pictures/video of her playing. This short visit was in preparation for a longer stay down the road and I couldn't have been happier with the experience and all the communication to plan for the stay. I would highly recommend Albert and Amanda as they are extremely knowledgeable. They are not only dog sitters but trainers who are willing to educate.”

“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”

“I highly recommend Shelby! She provided top-notch care for Kuma and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. Communication was excellent and I was updated regularly with pictures and updates. I felt confident leaving my dog in their capable hands and will definitely be using their services again in the future. 5 stars!”

“Sharon was very responsive. It was easy to communicate with her via phone, email, & text. She kept me well updated on how my pup was doing. She had a box of dog toys & my puppy found them & started playing right away. Her yard is not fenced however, she had a tether line that allowed my pup to explore most of the yard. Sharon also entertained my pup with our own favorite toys from home such as bubble & puzzles. This was my 1st time to try this service & to leave my 5 month old puppy & I was nervous at first but, Sharon's calming patient personality put me & my pup at ease. My puppy was happy to see me but didn't seem to have missed me much. I would use her for puppy sitting again if I ever had the need. Thank you Sharon for such a nice experience.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Sue! She was so incredibly accommodating and patient with my dog. My dog, Sadie, was uncharacteristically anxious and scared on our vacation. She was having a really hard time separating from me at all. Sue took the time to get her acclimated with the new environment and allowed me into her home to give Sadie time to adjust and get comfortable. She played calming music for Sadie and gave her her favorite treat- peanut butter. By the time we picked Sadie up, she was very happy and more back to herself. Sue gave Sadie so much love and attention the whole time I was at the aquarium. I was able to have a good time, knowing my dog was in good hands. Sue kept me updated on Sadie’s progress with texts, pictures and videos. I am so very grateful and would recommend Sue to anyone seeking a great pet sitter!”

“Lynne was just marvelous. I felt completely comfortable leaving Zelda with her knowing she would be completely cared for. Lynne even taught my old girl some new tricks. She has a beautiful fenced in yard and the house is completely dog friendly. I can’t say enough about how much appreciated the care Zelda got. We will be back for sure!”

About: Please note: our beloved golden retriever, Charlie, has been diagnosed with a heart tumor and pulmonary hypertension. We are on a hiatus from dog sitting for this period of time while we care for him and give him all the love we can for the time we have left with him. We will update our calendar as we’re able, and look forward to a return to sitting when it is appropriate. Thank you for understanding. We are a dog loving family with experience from puppyhood to senior care. We’ve raised dogs from breeders and we’ve fostered/rescued. One of our beloved pups had a severe genetic heart disease, so we’ve dealt with medical conditions and the accompanying drugs and modified care they require. Through all of our canine experiences, we’ve learned that dogs thrive with consistency, positive reinforcement, and lots of love and affection. Our two retrievers are a huge part of our family, and we look forward to your pup falling in with our routines like he/she is one of our own. I work from home Monday-Friday. Your dog(s) would spend their weekdays joining our two dogs either curled up at my feet or playing in our fenced-in backyard. On weekends and evenings they’ll enjoy the extra company of our dog-loving teenagers, who will spoil them rotten with walks, playtime, and lots of attention! We have a big, fenced in yard so the dogs will get plenty of outdoor time. For the most part, your dog(s) will have free rein to be with our family and our dogs doing whatever we’re doing — but we do have several crates and portable fences that we can use as needed to provide separation and quiet time. We want your dog to be comfortable and happy in our home, so we’ll work closely with you before your visit to make sure we understand his/her habits and routines!

“Our dogs had a blast spending the day at Dana's. They came home exhausted which is exactly what we hope for. They think her awesome yard is the best place in town to make friends and hang out!”

“Cory was a great communicator and was flexible when our schedule needed to be modified! She was out waiting for us for dropoff and brought our pup back to us promptly upon return. She sent photos and our pup seemed to have a great time!”

About: Hi. My name is Bree, I'm an independent journalist working and living in Mystic, CT. I love gardening, hiking, reading, and being outdoors. I have a Golden Mountain Dog and a young child so dogs need to be kid and dog friendly. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. As I'm self-employed and work from home, my work day is very flexible. I try my best to stick to your pet’s routine and happy to accommodate their schedule.

About: With being surrounded by family and friends who are vet techs & pet clinic staff, I have had experience with dogs & cats for a very long time. I absolutely adore animals and have always wanted to make it my job to go above and beyond and give all the love to fur babies so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. This is professionally my third year. With being an active girl, I love to go on walks, hike, go for drives & listen to music. Pet sitting is very compatible with my personality and routine. When I visit a home or stay with a pet, I make sure to follow every instruction to keep the dog, or cat, in the same routine so the animal is as comfortable as possible. It is important to me to not disrupt the normal for an animal and keep them feeling loved and safe. ♥️

About: I love spending time outdoors with my pets— I have a trained hunting lab and a Siberian calico cat. Over the years I’ve boarded friends and families dogs at my house. We have 7 acres of land + 100 acres of land trust hiking trails abutting us that we have spent a lot of time walking with dogs. I am currently working from home as a freelance designer so I’m very flexible on accommodating your pup! I am available most weekdays and weekends In my home, I’ll provide a loving, safe environment for dogs, prioritizing their well-being with consistent care and attention. Trust is built through positive reinforcement, ensuring each dog feels secure and valued. I have ample land available for daily walks and exercise, giving them the freedom to explore and stay active. I’ll create a routine that balances playtime, training, and rest, fostering a sense of belonging and safety.

About: I have helped families take care of their pets (and kids!) for over 20 years! I just moved to Westerly with my husband, rescue pup, and sweet senior cat and we just had our first child. I enjoy helping families with their fur babies as I settle into being a stay at home mom! Depending on the baby’s schedule, sometimes my husband does the visits for me or we all go together with the baby in a carrier— let me know in advance if you have any issues. Being a mother is my full time job, so my schedule is very flexible! Feel free to inquire about a date that is marked unavailable. I take into consideration what each pet needs during my visits, whether that’s a long walk, a few rounds of fetch or just some cuddles.

“Chelsea was great. Very accommodating. Good communication. Even put out a kiddie pool to keep cool on a very hot day!”

“Coco had a great visit! We would absolutely have Olive Watch Coco again if we’re in the area. She was very responsive with quick texts back. Could tell she really loves dogs.”

“Margo watched Finn during the day when I had to go back to work. She had no problem accepting the challenge of caring for a young puppy and has many years of experience raising dogs of her own. Finn got along really well with her two dogs and was always excited to go to Margo's house when I dropped him off in the morning. My mind was at ease during the work day knowing that he was in excellent care. She sent pictures and updates of them going on walks together, playing in the yard with her dogs, and working on some of his training. If we ever go away on a trip, I will definitely use Margo to care for Finn again! She truly loves what she does and cares deeply for all her clients' pups.”

I have been a dog lover ever since I can remember. Growing up, I was lucky enough to have dogs as part of my family. From a young age, I learned to take care of these furry companions, and as a result, developed a strong bond with them. Over the years, I have had the pleasure of taking care of dogs of all sizes and breeds. From tiny Chihuahuas to giant Great Danes, each one has left a lasting impression on me. Through my experiences, I have gained valuable insights into the unique personalities and needs of different dog breeds. I have learned how to read their body language, anticipate their behavior, and adapt to their individual quirks. I understand the importance of exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization for a dog's well-being, and I always make sure to incorporate these elements into my interactions with them. Overall, my lifelong experience with dogs has given me a deep appreciation for their companionship and a strong desire to provide the best possible care for them. Working from home .
