Dog Boarding in Newington

“Colleen was amazing from the beginning to the end. Very personable and friendly. She asked all the right questions and made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. She listened to instructions and was very communicative with me during the whole thing. I even was able to drop him off earlier than planned and picked him up later with no problem. I would 💯 recommend her to anyone needing dog/cat care. Thank you so much for taking amazing care of Scotti while I was away. I will definitely reach out again! 😊”

“Betty had a blast with all the holiday pups! She even got to hang out with our neighbors' dogs who were there at the same time! She is always hesitant to let me take her back home after spending time at Kane and Colette's!”

“Veska was amazing with our puppy. She and her family and two dogs were very patient with all things that come with caring for a puppy. She made sure our puppy got plenty of exercise and sent updates and pictures every day. This allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation without feeling too guilty. Will definitely use her services again!”

“We recently left our 4 1/2 month old puppy, Harry, with Michelle. We were on vacation in Maine and were not able to bring him to our rental. Michelle sent us tons of photos and gave us updates on how Harry was doing. We would recommend her to anyone looking for in home dog care in the southern Maine area. Harry was happy upon our arrival to pick him up, we are very grateful that we found Michelle on Rover!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and stay overnight with their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with specific routines or medication needs. I understand how important consistency and patience are, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available most weekdays after 2pm and have open availability on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to work with your pet’s specific routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I do not have a fenced in yard but I can accommodate and make your pet comfortable at all times. I can crate your dog if needed and always supervise playtime. I follow feeding schedules carefully and will provide updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. In a client’s home, I respect your space and keep everything clean, secure, and just as you left it.

“Bessa had another great time at Sheila’s and Dakotas house. Sheila took her for walks and awesome trip to pierce island dog park. I always know Bessa will have a great time and get lots of loving at Sheila’s. She shares lots of pics and videos during her stay too.”

“I am so glad and grateful that Shana and Dylan watched my pup this week. I could not have asked for anyone better!! I adopted my dog less than two weeks ago and - still getting to know her - had a trip planned and needed to board her for 5 days. I was hoping for someone to treat my dog like their own and Shana and Dylan did just that. In fact, they went above and beyond what I could’ve hoped for - letting her snuggle with them at night, sending me frequent updates and pup pics, going out of their way to pick up beef and rice and cook it for my girl when her stool was soft, and packing the rest to go when I picked her up. Their dog Cleo is a sweetheart, and joined in on the doggy snuggles. I know if I ever need a sitter again I’ll be reaching out to Shana.”

About: I’m a newly retired teacher and former principal that loves my doggies! Over the years, I’ve had so much love from my very special friends. Would love to give and get some loves from your treasured family member. I literally live in the middle of Stratham Hill Park and I love to walk. Only one “little guy” at a time…🥰 I’m loving my retirement and have lots of time and love to give. I have some scheduled exercise classes in the mornings but always home by 10:30. I’ve had so many dogs over the years. Routine visits to the vet are mandatory and walking, playing, and interacting with my friends are essential. I’m also very familiar with dogs with anxiety. One needs to approach this in a calm and careful way and watch the signs for anxiety coming on and be able to respond with love and kindness. Living right in the middle of Stratham Hill Park, I have easy access to the walking trails. Because I don’t know your dog, they will never be off leash but will be outside often during the day!! I love to walk. 🥰 I have a lovely crate IF your dog prefers this quiet space, but I will not be crating unless you ask me to. Typically my 11 year old grandson will come by after school to snuggle, play and go for a walk with me and your pup!

“James and his family were very gracious and flexible. We were initially a bit reticent because our Wally can sometimes be inpatient with young children. James went out of his way to make us feel comfortable. It sounds like Wally had a grand time and fit in well. Wally was very relaxed when we picked him up. We hope that we can work with James and family in the future!”

“Jamie was great with our dog Roo! We have a rescue that can have a hard time in new places, but Jamie made her feel comfortable and took good care of our pup while we were away.”

“Nicole made sure to accommodate Bryn’s dietary issues. I received pictures and videos daily during the visit. She was friendly and has a great fenced in backyard for play. Her home is a great setting for dogs. We will definitely be booking her again.”

Marianne K.

“Nicholas is our go to pet sitter! Our dog loves staying here! She is treated like family! Thank you for another wonderful stay! Highly recommend!”

“We absolutely love having Diamond and her sweet girls care for our pups. They are both so lovingly cared for the entire time. We receive multiple photos and check ins. She’s just the best!”

About: Volunteered at a humane society for a few years in high school and owned too many pets my whole life. Ive done dogs, cats, bunnies, and they lived a long time and were very happy and healthy. I use the awful baby voice on every pet and can't help it. I am working as an assistant manager at Buffalo Wild Wings after a job lay off, I am in the design field! My hours can range, sometimes I do have to close at 1am but if 2 visits a day were needed, I would be honest about the time I would be able to care for your pet. I take what the pet parent says very seriously, does not matter how I care for my own babies it's how you care for yours. I am very open to being very communicative or just a few check ins if wanted!
