Doggy Day Care Middlefield

“Christine did a great job with Nellie and I’d definitely book with her again/recommend her to others. I appreciated that she wanted to meet first to make sure our dogs were compatible and that she kept me updated with messages and photos while I was away.”

About: I've had pets since a young age from lizards, cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, turtles, guinea pigs and birds. I have a small dog of my own so I know I can give your pets lots the love and attention too whether they have fur, scales, or feathers! I work from home so all pets get get a lot of attention during the day. For dogs staying in my home, they get 3 walks a day in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening. I work from home so all pets get a lot of attention during the day. I love to spend my time after work going on walks and would love a buddy(s) to come with me! I am available from dog walking or in home visits after 5:15pm during the week and anytime on weekends. I think the best way to care for a pet is do exactly what they're comfortable with. I intend to have very open communication with pet parents to understand the likes, dislikes and behaviors of their fur-babies to make sure that they feel safe and comfortable. I do have a dog of my own so I also want to make sure all your pets get along with my Jax, who loves other animals.

About: Hi everyone. I am new to Rover as a sitter but I’ve taken care of different types of dog breeds for 5 years! Dogs are considered to be humans best friends and I treat them like they’re mine! I provide comfort and care and help each dog with anything they may need, ranging from love, to energy and any special need care the owner may have! I alter my care depending on each need to each individual dog! I am comfortable around all dogs. While also having a job as an engineer, I try to make time for my animals even if that means leaving work and coming home to make sure they have everything they need! I also have days off that need to be filled with more joy and more animals! With a lot of free time, I can make sure your fur baby is never alone and bored! I’m also new on rover as a sitter and I’m super excited to start meeting new pets! I have 2 mini golden doodle puppy one named Tobi and one named Rylee. They are as playful and energetic as they can be. I provide them with attention and energy anytime they need/ want and they control my whole world! This would be no different than taking care of your pets too! Every pet deserves love so I will provide that level of comfortability! I adapt to your pets as if they are my own.

“Melanie was great with Haylee and provided a fun day for our little girl. This was the first time we have used a dog day care with Rover and were not sure how Haylee would be. Melanie took time to meet us and Haylee. It was a comfort to know Haylee was in good hands as we got pictures and updates.”

About: I have always loved dogs. I have one dog at the moment and dog sitting fulfills my need for a second dog. I recently lost my first dog, Peekaboo the Cockapoo, and have been heart broken ever since. I do have an amazing dog Moose (3y/o 40# all American brown dog mix) and I don’t want her to ever feel lonely so hosting dogs or going to walk other dogs has been a great way for her to get personalized one on one attention! I love my dogs so much they bring me so much joy we love to take walks around my beautiful neighborhood 3 to 4 times a day we have space to play and beds to lay on and take naps in the sun, we look forward to getting the chance to meet you all soon ! I work full-time from home with a digital marketing career. I am able to monitor my animals all day. Every day we go for 3 to 4 walks around my mile and a quarter neighborhood block. I have tons of space for your dog to be crated or to nap on their bed or to nap on my bed I am very attentive to my animals needs. I typically know that if an animal is out of sight, then they must be getting into some thing so if I see that they don’t want to be near me, we go for a walk I’m always available for a pet or a cuddle in between my business calls. With the nearby trails, I am always out exploring with my animal friends

“Mark and family were fantastic! They were all very sweet and extremely accomodating. Mark was flexible with my drop off and pick up times and even offered to meet me halfway to bring Keegan back so I did not have to go as far out of my way. Their dogs are gorgeous and super friendly and my pup had a great time. Would book again in an instant if I'm ever back in that area. Thanks again!!”

“Mariana is amazing. Izzy loves her daycare visits and enjoys spending time with her and her two dogs. She sends lots of photos so you know your dog is having a great time.”

“Ariadne did a great job caring for our puppy for a day on short notice! It's easy to tell that she loves animals and had a great time playing with our pup. Her fenced in backyard was an excellent and safe environment for our small dog.”

About: I've had pets for 50 years. Have dogs and cats. Work with TNR in my community. Care for feral colonies. Can administrator medication, IV fluids and sub q injections. I can handle special diets. Recently completed an Approved Vet Tech Assistant program and have passed the National Exam. I completed 100 hours at a local vet hospital as well. I'm currently working a flexible part time job. I do not have children at home or other responsibilities. I am available holidays, evenings and weekends. I can administer medications, I can walk dogs, can handle special diets, can handle multiple pets (I currently have a client with 10 special needs cats).

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life - my dog, Yogi, was truly my heart. He was handicapped and became very sick starting at the young age of 4. At that time, I was told he would not live long and was advised to consider euthanasia. Instead, I chose to care for him and support him through his illness, and he went on to live a full and happy life until age 12.5. Caring for a dog with special needs taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to recognize even subtle changes in behavior, comfort, or health. Because of that experience, I am especially comfortable caring for senior dogs, dogs with medical needs, or dogs who may require extra patience and compassion. I have two sons (ages 5 and 10) who are gentle, respectful, and have grown up around animals. We also have three cats, ages 4, 1.5 and a kitten, who are very accustomed to a calm home environment. I love dogs deeply, but after losing Yogi, I haven’t been ready to get another of my own - so I figured Rover would be the next best thing until that time comes, because caring for others’ dogs is incredibly meaningful to me. I work fully remote, so I’m home all day and able to give your dog plenty of attention, walks, and outdoor time whenever they need it. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I also work fully remote, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and frequent walks or outdoor breaks throughout the day. Your dog will not be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of attention, care, and affection. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved - just like family! I work fully from home, so I’m here throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to easily accommodate walks, feeding routines, and whatever each dog needs to feel comfortable and cared for! We live in a great, quiet neighborhood with a large front yard and a fully fenced-in backyard, which is perfect for safe outdoor time and play. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, and I truly enjoy having dogs around and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I care for every pet as if they were my own and make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets have a safe, calm environment with plenty of supervision since I work fully remote. They’ll have access to a fully fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time, along with regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I’m also happy to accommodate any specific needs, including feeding schedules, medications, or crate routines. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible!

About: With over 18 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs, animals have always been the center of my life. I am a certified dog trainer through ABC (Animal Behavior College), where I completed coursework and hands-on mentorship training. My first Jack Russell, full of energy and determination, inspired me to become a trainer and deepened my passion for understanding animal behavior. Today, I share my home with a younger, playful pack, including another Jack Russell, and I’ve learned the importance of balancing order, safety, and discipline with letting dogs simply enjoy being dogs. I believe younger dogs benefit from observation, gentle guidance, and time to grow before intense training, so my focus is always on safe, positive, and enriching experiences. I use equipment designed for safety — such as secure belt leashes — to make sure dogs are comfortable and protected on walks. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, or high-maintenance small breeds, I have the hands-on experience to give each pet the right level of care and attention. My senior dog, who recently passed after nearly 17 years by my side, required 24/7 care during her final year. That experience taught me patience, vigilance, and the deep responsibility of caring for animals at every stage of life. Our home is designed with pets in mind — safe, welcoming, and filled with love. With a friendly resident pack, dogs here need to enjoy the company of other dogs to feel at home. Small dogs are my specialty, but I welcome pups of all kinds and treat every animal as if they were my own. The only challenge you might face? Your dog may not want to go home. My partner and I both work from home, so we’re with our dogs throughout the day. We balance our time between working indoors and enjoying the outdoors when the weather is nice, with walks and dog park visits built into our mornings and evenings. We also enjoy picnics, hikes, and other activities that include our pets, since they’re truly part of our everyday life. None of our animals are ever crated — they’re free to be with us and part of our routine at all times. We have three secure, fenced yard areas designed for different activities. One area is set aside for bathroom breaks, where pets can go on their own. The other two yards are used for supervised playtime. Inside, our dogs have access to two levels of the home. The lower level is the cat zone, and the cats also enjoy access to one of the fenced yards. All pets have free range within their spaces and spend the day with me or my partner, so they are always supervised and cared for. We don’t crate any of our own pets — they are all very friendly and used to being around both cats and dogs. I’m a very hands-on, “helicopter” type fur mom — safety, love, and care are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are mentally stimulated, and I’m always checking for ticks or any health concerns. I shared my life with two beloved dogs for nearly 17 and 15 years, and losing them a few years ago was heartbreaking. They traveled everywhere with me and showed me the depth of the bond we share with animals. Caring for pets is my greatest passion, and I feel honored every day to be in their company. I will do whatever is required to keep your animals happy and cared for as if they were my own. I will always follow your instructions closely — from feeding to routines — and will never do anything that isn’t approved by you. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness come first.

“Hailey was great. Coming from out-of-town to attend a family gathering, we could not meet her in advance, but our little maltipoo seemed comfortable with her right away and came out smiling after an afternoon with her and her dogs in her quiet, friendly neighborhood.”

About: I am a former kennel attendant for a dog daycare and boarding facility and was trained to administer medication to dogs of all sizes. I love all dogs big and small. Owning two Dogs Argentinos, one of which is a trained protection dog, has allowed me to gain experience with working with big powerful breeds and enforcing established trained behavior with consistency. I not only board dogs but take them on walks, hikes, and even morning and evenings runs depending on their size and activity levels. I have also been walking dogs professionally for 5 years and am Insured and pet CPR certified! I recently graduated from Quinnipiac University Spring of 2022 with a double Bachelors Degree and have been doing Dog Walking/Boarding full time but have a spaced out schedule which allows time for everything your best friend needs. My schedule spans out from early mornings to late nights. I have full availability for walks adventures, and boarding. Booking a stay with comes with two- three daily long walks, multiple playtimes indoor and outdoor in a large grass yard, adventures in local nearby trails like sleeping giant, visits to the nearby dog park, and much more! Videos and pictures will be sent home on a daily basis as well a bunch of snuggling! Provided toys and treats (for rewarding good behavior) will be available at all times for your pups enjoyment! Since there are three other dogs in the household the convenience of a separated boarding area allows more comfort for guest who are not that social, prefer to have their own space, or not comfortable with large dogs. Before each pup goes home they get a complimentary bath and nail trim!

“Maria was amazing! I genuinely can’t say enough good things about her and would highly recommend her to anybody who wants someone to care for their pets. Maria was extremely communicative and very easy to talk to and coordinate with. She also sent multiple updates throughout the day with photos and videos of our sweet boy. We will certainly be reaching back out to Maria anytime we need somebody to watch our pup. We already have multiple other days set up with her and I know that our sweet boy is looking forward to seeing her again!”

“Stephanie has been very responsive to us in onboarding our 5 year old rescue to her care. She takes the time to get to know the dogs she cares for and works with them. Her calming way with the dogs inspires trust. We’ve done a one day visit in preparation for a longer stay. So far so great!”

About: passion and love for pets and pet safety certified + CPR / First Aid certified!! I have started my official journey of pet care and grooming 4 years ago! What began as just dog walking and drop ins, turned into my full time job in dog grooming and walking. My neighborhood and friends have relied on me to care for the pups and raved in the reviews to keep on coming back. My absolute favorite part of my job is the moment a dog is relaxed enough to fall sleep during the groom. As well as being able to play with my fur client then do a make over! My favorite grooms are seniors. Currently I work mainly in grooming. Pampering pups with bubble baths and a fresh haircuts/make overs. Leaving me plenty of time to care for your pup with a drop in or walk in the early morning or just in time for that evening walk! I’m also available for weekend boardings! I have a spacious fenced in yard to let your pup use the bathroom as often as needed or some well deserved play times! I have 1 friendly and playful female dog to keep your fur baby company and entertained. I can easily crate any dog or provide a quiet space when/if relief is needed.

“Wow! Mari was a life saver with a last minute day care for our pup. You can also tell she’s an animal lover. She was instantly comfortable with our not-so-small German Shepherd and he was at ease with her immediately. Also, not for nothing, she sends the best photos during your pet’s stay! Our dog deals with some leash reactivity near other dogs, but Mari assured us she was comfortable with the training we do with our dog to ease his reactivity on walks. Will definitely book with her again!”

“Great updates throughout the day, took great care of Larry and even accommodated our late pickup and request for a meet and greet before booking. Thanks Ifan!”

“Christle has been a Godsend. She is amazing, kind & a wonderful dog sitter. My Harmony LOVED going there! She was treated with kindness & when she got home she was tired from playing. I absolutely recommend her as your furry companion will be in great hands!”

“Julia was absolutely amazing with my dog! She was so kind, caring, and attentive, and I could tell right away that my dog was comfortable with her. She kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It is clear that Julia genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”
