Doggy Day Care in New Preston Marble Dale

About: I've owned and cared for 9 dogs throughout my life, ranging from tiny Maltese and other small breeds to large Saint Bernard's. Every dog I've had has been treated like family, and I bring that same level of love, patience, and care to every pet I look after. Whether it's playtime, walks, feeding, or cuddles, I'll care for your pet as if they were my own. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I have a pup of my own, and we stay active with daily walks, outdoor time, and enrichment activities. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or regular walks, I can adjust my schedule to meet their needs and keep them comfortable, happy, and well cared for. How I care for your pet depends entirely on how you'd like me to support them and what makes them most comfortable. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive lots of attention, exercise, and affection. While I do not have a fenced-in yard, all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs will be leash-walked unless they have a proven, reliable recall. I am also happy to follow your pet's existing routines, feeding schedules, training preferences, and any special care instructions in either my home or yours.

About: Grew up on a farm caring for animals since my youth. now enjoy the company of visiting dogs, just like I had with my own. I currently work part-time and many situations able to bring a boarding dog with me; as I work with mostly older folks who would love the sweetness of a dog visit; considered therapy. I have a side fenced yard, safe from the road, and only do private walks in a comfortable grass field near my home, leashed and one at a time for individual attention.

“Isabel was fantastic with our high energy dog, Crash. She was so caring and patient, and our pup loved hanging in the yard with her new dog friends! We would absolutely bring our dog back to Isabel’s anytime.”

“Our Lucy was in great hands with Rich and his wonderful pup crew! Since it was our first time using Rover and we were coming from out of town for a wedding, we were a little unsure of how everything would go. But from the moment Rich greeted us and Lucy, we felt completely at ease. He carefully introduced her to his pack, and she fit right in, enjoying the great backyard space and having a great time with the other dogs. We're so grateful for the care Rich provided. Highly recommend!”

About: Dogs thrive on calm structure and that’s exactly what I provide. I create a controlled, low stress environment where dogs are calm, well managed, and set up for success. I’m a sitter with formal training in dog behavior, and I’m currently continuing my education through an accredited, science based training program. My approach goes beyond basic pet sitting, I focus on structure, clear boundaries, and reading behavior to prevent issues before they start. I specialize in dogs that need structure and guidance, whether that’s anxious dogs, easily overstimulated dogs, or dogs adjusting to a new environment. My focus is helping dogs stay calm, regulated, and comfortable, not just physically tired. Every dog is handled intentionally and with clear structure, not as part of a chaotic group setting. Pet care is my full-time work, so your dog’s routine becomes part of my routine. Meals, walks, rest, enrichment, and any training cues you already use are followed as consistently as possible. I keep things structured and predictable so dogs, especially anxious, reactive, or easily overstimulated ones, can settle in and feel secure. My home is structured, supervised, and calm, not a chaotic group setup or a free for all. Dogs are introduced thoughtfully, given clear boundaries, and supported with a predictable routine so they feel safe and secure. I tailor the environment to each dog, including decompression time, quiet space, and supervised social time only when appropriate. My focus is always on behavior, safety, and preventing overstimulation or unsafe situations. My approach is best suited for dogs who can follow structure and benefit from a calm, well-managed environment. I am not a good fit for dogs that rely on constant high energy group play or a completely unstructured routine.

“Girls really loved their playday with Monica.”

About: I bond with pets quickly-they sense my fondness for them and I pay attention to the little things, so I sense what they need to be happy. I am working part-time, so I fortunately get to make my own schedule! I can be flexible with what your specific pet needs are. I always go the extra mile because I enjoy animals so much. We have 2.5 acres of land mostly yard and partially woods with walking trails all over. We have a super friendly and playful 2.5 year old neutered Frenchton named Gus who is 40 pounds and enjoys any and all company! We got our puppy Louie in April 2023. He is an adorable almost 1 year old French Bulldog. Our 2 cats are pretty shy of other humans and pets outside of their family-but they love a good petting and join us on walks! We also have chickens for eggs-but they are outside and safely caged. We spend as much time as possible outside enjoying nature and our pets happily join us!

“Amber was great with Ollie while I had to do something during the day. Took photos and kept a good eye on Ollie while I was gone. She was flexible and communicative. Highly recommend and would use again if in the are”

About: Our family loves our pets, and I'll love yours too while you are away. My husband and I adopted our first black Lab in 2001, when she was eight years old. She was our first baby. Since that time, in addition to raising our human family, we have added many furry, finned, and feathered members to our home. While my ten-year-old Havanese is my "Best Boy;" I am "House Mom" to the other pets in our family. I love the time in the day I spend with my pets and look forward to spreading that love to other animals as I have more free time now that my kids are growing up. Having my own pets, I know it is hard to leave town. It's essential to find someone who is responsible, thoughtful, honest, and gentle to watch over them. I look forward to meeting with you and your pets to help alleviate your concerns. I am a stay-at-home parent, to older children, so my schedule is very flexible. I look forward to working with you to create a schedule that supports everyone! I believe in the Golden Rule. I will care for your pet(s) just as I would expect someone to care for mine. Before scheduling our first pet sitting appointment, I would like to meet with you and your pet in order to understand your pets' schedules and needs. If I am visiting your pets at your home, is there anything small I can help you with? Maybe you want your trash bins brought in, or your mail picked up?

About: Hi! My name is Haley and I am 26 years old. I grew up in New Milford, CT and moved to NC for school. I just recently moved back to New Milford after completing my Master’s at UNCW. North Carolina was where I joined Rover and fell in love with the opportunity to help the local area with pet care! I love all animals! I have an 8 year old boxer mix named Koby and a 5 year old golden retriever named Miloh. We spend our days at the beach, park, eating treats, playing tug of war, speaking the doggy language, and cuddling of course! I have grown up around pets my entire life and could not imagine a life without them. I will follow your daily routine the closest I can and apply the discipline you enforce with your dog on a daily basis. I will make sure the experience your dog has is fun, targeted to their specific needs, and give your dog the love and affection you would to make them as comfortable as possible. My goal is to make your dog feel loved and make sure they are happy the entire time they spend with me. I love all dogs, big or small, and enjoy creating relationships with them. I would love to meet your furry best friend and if they are good with other dogs, I would love to bring my little fur babies around for some good fun and exercise. Whatever you need I am there and willing to work around not only the needs of your pet but you as well! I currently am working full time at my home. I have a flexible work schedule and would be able to step out multiple times a day to take care of your pet! I will follow whatever routine you feel is best for your pet / pets while you are away! I have been doing this a long time and have seen it all when it comes to the preferences people have on the care of their pets. No request is too much when it comes to our pets! I currently work from home and have plenty of free time on my hands. I am very flexible and open to helping however I can! I have grown up around pets and have had both of my dogs since they were puppies. They have been up and down the east coast with me during every trip home, move, etc. They are my best friends. Your best friend will be treated exactly how I would want someone to treat mine if I was away!

“Laura couldn't have been sweeter and more attentive to our little Havanese, Cleo. Shy as she is, she clearly picked up on Laura's very gentle nature and warmed right up to her. We live in NYC but had Cleo stay with her while my daughter and I were in the area to spend some time on Candlewood Lake. I only wished we lived closer so we could take advantage of having Laura watch Cleo more often!”
