Doggy Day Care in Marlborough

“Elaine is absolutely great! she clearly loves dogs and has been very caring and loveful with my dog when taking care of her. She sent me pictures during the day, has always been very responsive to my messages, and even made us the favor to come to pick her up from home when we couldn't drop her off. I would absolutely recommend her as one of the best dog sitters in the Metrowest area!”

About: I've taken care of many dogs for friends and family. I enjoy large dogs, training young pets, and playing outside. Looking forward to hearing from you. I'm currently full time remote from home, so I will have plenty of time to be with your pet! Many times when it is nice, I will sit outside in the backyard and work while the dogs play and explore. I have a new 6 foot fenced in yard with a spacious backyard to run around in. My two dogs are friendly and ready make new friends.

“This was Roxy's first visit with Anastasia and we were very pleased. She got to make a new human friend, and some new four legged friends, and seemed very happy (and tired) at the end of the day. Thank you Anastasia for helping her feel so welcome on her first visit. She'll be going back again soon! Lori F.”

About: I have been a dog lover my whole life, and had one of my own up until recently. I live with my parents and teenage sister and having dogs in our lives has brought us so much joy! We will treat and care for your dog like they are part of our family. I am very reliable and responsible and have transportation to pick-up/drop-off your dog if needed. I would love to care for your pet! I work entirely from home and have a flexible schedule, so I am available all days of the week. I have time to take your pup on multiple walks throughout the day and to play! I have a huge yard for lots of playing and running around as well as a recreational path very close by. I love swimming, hiking, and going on longer walks. My house is spacious and has lots of toys.

“Irena took wonderful care of our pup Brenna. Irene's compassion and dedication to pet sitting were truly exceptional. She provided regular updates and photos, easing any concerns we had. Brenna will undoubtedly be excited for go back and see her new friend again”

“Meli took such great care of my fur baby! From the moment I was in touch with Meli, I felt safe and excited about the opportunity to have Ollie spend the day with her and her pup Nina. She was warm and assuring, and very quick to respond to messages! When I met Meli in person to drop Ollie off, I was happy to find such a friendly and kind person in real life, too! She sent me photos and updates throughout the 6 hours that Ollie was with her for “day care” (without me even needing to ask!) and I could tell he was having fun and being taken care of so well! I would absolutely recommend Meli and would love to have Ollie stay with her again if we need a sitter in Bloomington. Thanks Meli! ?”

“Stephanie has been a wonderful sitter. She is very communicative and responsive, always going the extra mile. Poppy gets so excited every time she gets dropped off and always leaves happy and tired. I would happily recommend Stephanie to anyone and I know Poppy is looking forward to her next visit.”

“Kathy was great with Comet. She sent lots of pictures and gave him lots of treats and love. And Franklin was an excellent host too. Kathy was very communicative and asked lots of questions before we met, making us feel safe leaving Comet there. We would absolutely use her again!”

About: Hi! My name is Xiaoxue and I go by Phoebe. With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routines. I’ve raised my own dog and cat from puppyhood and kittenhood into healthy, happy adults, and I’ve also cared for the pets of friends, neighbors, and family over the years—ranging from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra support. Occasionally assisted by my husband, whether it’s daily walks, medication administration, special diets, or just lots of love and playtime, I tailor my care to ensure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I treat every animal like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection. Your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priorities. Ready to spoil your pets with love, attention, and treats (if allowed)! Pet care is woven into my daily routine. I work from home, which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day—not just during scheduled visits. Whether it’s my own dog and cat or pets I’m caring for, I build my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and snuggles. Being home also means I can keep a close eye on pets, quickly respond to their needs, and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved all day long. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s a lifestyle I truly enjoy. In my home, pets have plenty of space to roam, relax, and feel right at home. I have a calm, pet-friendly environment with one gentle dog and one laid-back cat who both get along well with others. While my yard is unfenced, all outdoor time is supervised, and walks are part of the daily routine. I make sure visiting pets get the same love, structure, and attention as my own—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or just a quiet spot to nap.

About: Your dog will feel right at home here! I offer in-home boarding in a calm, low-stress environment with lots of love and attention. I work from home, so your pup gets constant supervision, companionship, and plenty of snuggles throughout the day. With a fenced-in yard and one chill, friendly dog, your pet will have a safe and comfortable space to relax and play. I’m happy to follow your dog’s routine, including walks, meals, medications, and any special care needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home. I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of snuggles. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily adjust to each dog’s needs and routine. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment where dogs can feel at home. My yard is fully fenced and always supervised, and I will follow any routines or preferences you have for your pet. I work from home, so pets are rarely alone, and I can accommodate dogs who need more frequent care or attention. I’m experienced with giving pills, liquid, and topical medications, and I’m happy to welcome multiple dogs as long as it’s a good fit for everyone. My goal is to provide a space that’s safe, trustworthy, and low-stress, where your dog can relax, cuddle, and feel cared for.

About: I have always had a love and passion for animals. I have grown up with dogs, cats, chickens, even a pet turtle. Each animal brought me so much happiness and I considered my pets as family members. Growing up, I have cared for friends, neighbors, and family members pets. Animals made me who I am today! I have an open schedule as I am currently in between jobs. While on my job search, I want to spend my time around pets giving them love and care. I know the value of being a trustworthy, attentive, and reliable sitter. I have a clean spacious home, a yard, and I currently don’t own any pets of my own. Your pet will be treated like family here receiving lots of affection so they feel at home while you’re away.

“We had a great experience with Emma! Our dogs are fussy. One is older and easily tired, the other is super energetic and nervous. They both were very calm and happy the whole time with her. She sent lots of pictures, which was great, and I felt she took very good care of them. She was also very quick to communicate and confirm plans.”

About: With over a decade of hands-on experience as a dedicated pet owner and caregiver, I bring a wealth of knowledge in pet care, particularly in the nurturing of dogs of all breeds and sizes, as well as cats. Currently, I share my home with a lively Chihuahua and two feline companions, while also extending my care to several clients' beloved canines. Additionally, I have undergone training in positive-reinforcement techniques and clicker training methods. Before commencing services, I typically offer a complimentary "Meet and Greet" session. This serves as an invaluable opportunity for us to meet face-to-face, allowing me to familiarize myself with your pets and home environment. Moreover, it's an ideal time to exchange pertinent information such as door codes, keys, and entry instructions. Please note, for services requiring travel to your location, such as dog walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, that rates may vary depending on the distance from my residence in Marlborough. My schedule is structured to accommodate pet care seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. With several regular pet clients whom I walk during the week, I may be away for 4-6 hours at a time, ensuring each pet receives the attention and exercise they require. In all services I provide, whether it's house sitting, walks, drop-ins, boarding, or daycare, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment for your beloved pets. Depending on the specific service offered, I tailor my care methods to suit the unique needs of each pet, ensuring they feel secure and well-cared for in both my home and yours.

About: I grew up taking care of dogs since high school! Friends have always called me the dog whisperer. Extremely patient with dogs and worked at a dog salon as a dog bather for 4 years. I do currently have a dog of my own, Bob. He is still working on his socialization skills (very high energy/playful), so we’d love that your pup is able to be patient with him as we are teaching him calm behaviors! I’m currently working hybrid and am home for 4/5 days and will closely monitor your dogs. My partner, Dylan, works at home for all days of the week. We both work together to make sure my puppy and yours are interacting well with each other and are having a good time! I have an unfenced yard, but will always take your dog out leashed. Your dog will be a part of our family during the stay and is allowed on all furniture. My dog sleeps in his crate at night, so to be fair - I will need to have your dog sleep on the floor by our bed at night!

About: We are a husband and wife team, raising our own Vizsla, Bella. Between the two of us, we are always looking after our own dog and it's easy for us to provide doggy day care or overnight care in our home. We welcome well trained, friendly dogs as well as puppies. We have flexible schedules and spend a lot of time exercising our own dog. Our dog requires a lot of exercise so we often run her in our fenced in yard as well as the park near our house. We never leave our dog alone for more than 3 hours at the most. We have a very dog friendly home, and pets are free to roam about, provided they're trained and won't be destructive to furniture. We like our dogs to feel comfortable always, so they are allowed on couches, etc and we have a lot of comfy areas for them to hang.

“Jayla is a wonderful sitter! She communicated very well and sent updates during the stay - our dog has some special quirks but definitely had a great time and everything went well! Would definitely recommend Jayla to care for your pet”

“Alexandra was awesome. I appreciate the time she spent with my dog and the attention she paid attention to him. For the standpoint of someone who cares about their pet and is weary about who watches after them; Alexandra's care will resolve all concerns. I received constant updates with photos attached. And she was OK with me visiting mid day. Overall the experience was exactly what a worrisome pet owner would be ideally looking for in a caretaker.”
