Doggy Day Care in New Salem

“Our dogs had a blast at Nicole’s place. They got to run around in her nice fenced in yard, played a lot of fetch and got to cool off in the kiddie pool. Nicole and her family are obviously dog lovers and I was so happy we left our girls with them. I would highly recommend Nicole to care for your pups as if they were her own.”

“Heather is very flexible and we felt comfortable leaving Teddy with her to go to a concert. We were out a little later than anticipated, but she was fine with that. Also, sent some pictures of Teddy playing with her dogs, which gave me real peace of mind that he was having fun and wasn’t lonely.”

“Lucy always comes home from John's happy and tired. I appreciate that he takes her on actual walks rather than just letting her out in the yard, and she really enjoys playing with his pup as well. Thank you John!”

“Amanda was so good with my dog Freddy who has a high level of separation anxiety. Freddy ended up having a great day at Amanda’s house. She sent me pictures during the day. I highly recommend Amanda to watch your dog.”

About: Our home offers a large fenced in yard for endless play, with doggy door access. Our own fur baby is a small bundle of joy, ready to befriend any visitors! I am also a stay at home mom of an animal loving toddler and so we are able to give your pet all the love and attention they deserve. I currently stay home with my 3 year old daughter full time, and taking care of our puppy is built into our daily routine. We take him for walks, run and play in the yard, and make him homemade treats. He is never left wanting for anything. We have a fantastic, dog-friendly yard, fully fenced and secure, with doggy door access into the house. If your dog requires more exercise than running in the yard, we are close to multiple walking trails we often take our pup to.

“Jessica and her daughter were fabulous hosts!! First off where they live is phenomenal!! It is so green and surrounded with wilderness. Loads of beautiful hiking areas and a nice big house!! They both come across as really gentle giving kind hearted people who are great with animals!! Bruno had a great time with them and was ready to go to sleep when we got home last night!! I would definitely recommend them and plan to use them again in the future!!”

About: Hi! I’m Nico! For years, friends and family always called me first when they needed a pet sitter, the pets and I both loved it! For 15-years as a butler and personal assistant to families in NYC & LA, management of high quality pet care has been one of my favorite responsibilities! Feeling lucky to have learned from all the best celebrity dog trainers in the world! My husband Matthew and I are new-ish to Franklin County, Massachusetts, and my current local clients would gladly provide references if you wanted to hear how care I’ve provided for their furry family members! I am currently working from home, writing a book, and would love more reasons to get up, get out, walk, and have some pets in the home too! I have dog bowls, beds, toys, and a big yard backed up to the woods for fuzzy friends to enjoy! If your pooch is not great off leash, that’s ok! I also have an outdoor pen and doghouse to keep them safe while I’m outside gardening! I love to have the dogs near me at all times!

“Had a meet and greet afternoon for Skipper and Mady was so great! Mady communicated during the stay and Skipper did well with her dog and kitty. We will be using Mady again for sure <3”

“Sofie is the most amazing petsitter I have ever met. Moki and Ollie were well cared for on a very stressful house-moving-day and Sofie was a kind and generous host even as she navigated their upset tummy issues. Thank you, Sofie; we will return when the boys are feeling well and settled and less stressed out. I appreciate you wholeheartedly.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life. In my home growing up I had two dogs and a cat. I cared for neighbors animals often whenever they traveled. I’m adept in training dogs and dog behavior. After moving from home I dearly missed my animals and started to volunteer at a rescue center near me five times a week. I’m currently in graduate school online, studying to be an elementary school teacher! I’m doing practical work at schools nearby part time. I’m used to be around two big dogs and one cat everyday but ever since moving out of my hometown I miss the pet life. I volunteer often at a rescue shelter near me! Often I take dogs home for an enrichment vacation from the shelter! I have no pets myself so I offer a comfortable quiet environment for your beloved fur baby! I have a lovely yard just waiting for sniffs. It’s not fenced in but is surround by woods and I plan to fence eventually. And there are so many wonderful walking paths near me.

About: I took care of dogs growing up, and now dogs are part of my family. My children have also grown up with dogs, helping with training, feeding, brushing, bathing, and playing with our dog. I am a middle school teacher who is home with my family during the summer. My 10 year old son and I are available to welcome your dog into our family life during the summer weeks and on weekends during the school year. We have a large yard with a stream and conservation land behind our house. We enjoy walks in the woods, running around and playing catch in the yard with dogs who stay with us. Inside dogs are allowed on the couch. We are home all day during the summer. We are excited to meet your dog and welcome them into our family life.
