Doggy Day Care in Newark

About: I have been the go to person to watch my friend's dogs throughout my 13 years in the military. Either it be a TDY, a Deployment or just for the weekend, I've taken care of dogs for my friend's whenever they need it. I no longer work from home so any dogs that I watch will be alone from approximately 7:00am - 2:30pm during the week. I now work in the office full time so any dogs that I watch will be alone/kenneled from 7:00am - 2:30pm during the week. I am in the military and may have to leave my house for a few hours, but those appointments are far and few between and will be communicated with you when/if they occur. I have a fenced in yard. I also have 2 large female (spayed) dogs to keep your dog(s) company. If they need to be crated I can accommodate that as well. Please let me know if your dog needs any medications or special needs.

“Becky is the Best I highly recommend. My Hank knows exactly who I am talking about when I say her name and his friends. He is waiting at door to go soon as I ask if he wants to see ecky. When I come to get him before I knock he knows it's me and is alking at the door. Great sitter.”

About: There’s something special about tiny dogs—their big personalities wrapped in pint-sized bodies, their bold barks, and their fierce loyalty. They may be small, but they’ve got hearts as big as the sky and more sass than a dog twice their size. Whether it’s a feisty Chihuahua, a snuggly Yorkie, or a spunky Pomeranian, one thing is true: tiny dogs are mighty souls. They may fit in your purse, but they’ll take up your whole heart. And for that reason I try my best to provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for your pet. Your furry friend will receive supervised potty breaks, plenty of playtime, and all the attention they deserve. Whether it’s cuddles, care, or just hanging out, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I’m also happy to send you regular photo updates, so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away! My husband works from home.. I’m a stay at home mom and I also have a furry friend of my own. Your pet will be in a comfortable setting while I teach my son and do my chores around the house. I have a secured, fenced yard. Your pet will be in company and enjoy play time with my 3 year old malschi. And be able to run around in the backyard if weather allows it.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have cared for four dogs over the past 20 years—one was with us for an amazing 17 years! We currently have a friendly 6-year-old Labradoodle who loves kids and other dogs. I work from home and homeschool our children (12 and 4), so I have the flexibility to give your dog plenty of attention, care, and fun throughout the day. I work from home and home school which gives me flexibility. I am only away for short periods of time for errands, as well as school pickup two days a week. We have a fenced yard and a friendly dog who does great with other dogs and people. My children have grown up around pets and know how to treat animals with care and respect.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs in the home and became the local animal care taker. From horses, to cats, to chickens and dogs I did it all. I then moved on to have 4 children and excited to show them what it looks like to care for animals of all types! I have a heart for taking care of the ones around me and would love to care for your animal as if they were my own. I have cared for puppies and kittens and took care of my own dog as she grew old and eventual passed. We only board one families dogs at a time to be able to give the best care possible. We are a homeschooling family and would love to use this as a time to get out and walk and spend some time loving on animals as we havent been able to get one of our own yet. We have a daughter who dedicate every waking moment to any animal we care for! We have a large yard to run and play and if we are at your home or ours we will follow any instructions to make sure your loved one is well cared for.

About: I have had multiple animals through my life, from dogs to cats to rabbits so my experience with animals comes from a variety of animal lovers. Im currently working from home so most of my day is pretty relaxed and not on a set schedule. This way I can pivot my routine based on the needs of your animal. I have a fenced yard and a 7 year old who loves animals as well so your animal will have a small human best friend!

“When dropping our fur babies off with Emma they were greeting with love and you can definitely tell Emma has passion for pets. She kept us updated on how Mr.Roadie and Miss Rayla were doing with pictures and videos. We will definitely recommend Emma to our friends and family.”

About: Animal lover with years of experience raising and training dogs. We live on a small farm with plenty of room to play safely with a large fully fenced yard, but pets stay mostly indoors and are treated like part of the family. I can provide daily walks, lots of attention, and regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I provide puppy training and senior dog care as well, I am familiar with administering medications including injectables as I’ve had a pet with diabetes. No matter what your pet may need, I will provide! I have a work from home job and am almost always available. We do a walk every evening which would be included with boarding if that’s what you’d like. We usually do outside potty breaks every few hours which are monitored from the porch. Pets are never left alone unsupervised simply to make sure everyone is taken care of correctly. Pets in my care are treated like part of the family. They stay indoors with me for most of the day and are always supervised when outside. Our property has plenty of fenced space for safe play and exercise, and I’m very hands-on with the animals I care for. When a new pet arrives, I take time to do slow, calm introductions and make sure everyone feels comfortable. If any pet needs their own space, I have plenty of room to safely separate animals as needed. I’m experienced with dogs who may feel anxious in new environments and work to keep routines calm and positive so they can settle in quickly. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“I wish I had the vocabulary to describe how absolutely wonderful Stephen and Victoria are. Just let the loss of words from someone (me) who can talk all day give the strongest possible clue of how great they are! You will not go wrong using their service; that’s a promise.”

About: I volunteered with a nonprofit dog rescue for a few years, so I’m comfortable with different dog personalities and helping them feel safe and settled. I work from home and I am around all day for supervision. I focus on slow, safe introductions and one-family-at-a-time care. I will also send regular updates so you always know how things are going. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine since we both work from home. Dogs are almost never left alone and get regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. We stick closely to each dog’s normal feeding and care schedule so they feel comfortable and at home, and we build our day around making sure they’re settled, relaxed, and well cared for. Hi! I’m Deanna, and my husband and I are lifelong dog lovers who really understand how important it is to feel good about who’s watching your pup. I work from home, and my husband also works remotely, so there’s almost always someone home for supervision, attention, and company throughout the day. We have two friendly dogs - Bruce, our Doberman, and Morty, our Miniature Pinscher - both used to other dogs and pretty easygoing. Our home is calm and predictable with no kids, which tends to be a nice, low-stress setup for dogs. We’ve also used Rover ourselves, so we get what it’s like leaving your dog with someone new and how important updates and communication are. We only take one dog family at a time and keep things calm at drop-off by not doing introductions right then to avoid stress. While they’re here, we stick to their normal routine as much as possible and send regular photo and video updates so you always know how they’re doing.

We can go for walks or just stay in.

“Megan was awesome and very welcoming. It was my first time using Rover and she made sure my 11 week old puppy had a comfortable stay and also got to play with her own puppy. When I picked her up she was a lot more confident and I could tell she had a fun time. Great stay and we will book doggy day care again for sure.”

Megan K.

“Since this was our first time with a dog sitter, I was nervous how my fur baby will be without us around. Yvonne was able to send updates and pics of Kazu. He had so much fun he didn’t want to get in the car to go home. Thank you so much Yvonne for the excellent care of Kazu and making our first experience with Rover memorable!”
