Top rated Newington doggy day care sitters

“Great experience with Karen! Daisy has done two days of day care with Karen and each one has been wonderful. Daisy played with other dogs and was happy and relaxed each time we picked her up. Karen clearly loves dogs and knows how to look after them. Will definitely ask to book again!”


“Ashley did an excellent job taking great care of our dog. Thanks to her we were able to take our kids to the children's museum which is close by. I could tell our dog was in caring hands. I recommend her highly!”


“Very sweet person! Totally a dog person!!! Cece was so comforting for us and our puppy, who had never been without us before. It was a big deal that she was communicative while we were away, letting us know she was okay as well sending photos. Last minute acheduling was important for our situation and she was immediately available. We will definitely ask her again if we are in the area and need a sitter.”


“I had a busy 17 hour day, and with my husband traveling Tobi would have been in his kennel with a short 30 min window (when I needed to come home to change) to stretch his legs and potty. Hannah was a life saver and agreed to watch Tobi for a few hours at her place, on a dimes notice. She noticed Tobi’s anxious behavior and provided play and walks to get him comfortable. We figured that her small apartment may have been too small of a space for Tobi (I live in a single family home with a yard), and as a solution she did offer her dog walking services where she’d pick Tobi up from my house for walks in the future. I appreciate the feedback, and will highly consider that as an option. Thank you Hannah for providing the support needed for Tobi (and my peace of mind)!”


“Colleen had my dog, Cooper, at her house for a few hours. Her place is a great set up for dogs, with a fenced in yard and a large couch for snuggles :) It is obvious that she truly cares about your pet. I felt confident leaving my fur baby with Colleen and appreciated her detailed note of their time together! I highly recommend Colleen!!”


“Gary is outstanding with Otter! Otter has so much fun at Gary's doggie resort that he grabs his 'adventure' bag and brings it to me to remind me it's time to go to Gary's for daycare! I highly recommend him, he is fantastic!”



About: Without exception, the dog park is always one of the best parts of my day. I've had three dogs of my own, and have been around countless other dogs, most of whom instantly become my new best friends. We just gravitate to each other, hence the fuzzy friend whisperer nickname. I have a playful, loving attitude toward every dog I meet. I am also sensitive to dogs who need a little more patience and space to ease into trusting me and respect the boundaries that they need to do that. My training style with my own dogs is focused on positive reinforcement rather than punishment. This approach translates to other dogs as well, unless their owners request differently. Your dog will be in caring, responsible hands with me. They will be loved. Vogel Emergency Vet just opened right across the street from our house, so if anything kind of emergency pops up, your baby will be a hop, skip and a jump away from the care they need. I'm self employed and work mostly from home so my schedule is quite flexible. Sometimes I’ll have drop in visits throughout the day, but if your dog is boarding with me, there will generally be someone else at home with them. They’ll rarely, if ever be left alone. I live on a small farm but also live near a road, so your dog will always be safely on a leash when we go outside for potty breaks. I have a very friendly 12 year old 45lb labradoodle named Huck to keep your baby company in the rare cases that I'm not at home. I have a "squirrel observatory" (bird feeder) right near my workspace so your dog will not only be supervised most of the time but also entertained.


About: Dogs have been my passion for 30 years. I have had all types of breeds - tiny to giant and have adopted all of my babies. I am experienced with giving special medical care and medications including injections as several of my kids have had severe illnesses. I believe there are no bad dogs, just dogs who express themselves differently. Would love to meet your four-legged family and help make them happy. My day rates are based on an 8 hr day. Rates for after 8 hrs can be discussed. I work from home and have a flexible schedule which allows me time during the day to provide the attention needed for walks and potty break. I have a fenced in area for potty breaks and playtime. Timber is in full puppy play mode and loves to share her toys and balls with our guests.

About: Hi! I’m Charlotte, a lifelong dog lover with a soft spot for senior dogs and young pups alike, especially high-energy breeds. I’ve had the joy of raising and caring for my family’s 12-year-old Boston Terrier since she was a puppy. Over the years, I’ve guided her through every stage of life—from potty training to behavioral shaping and teaching fun tricks. She’s now a sweet senior, and I’ve become well-versed in the extra love and patience older dogs need to stay comfortable, happy, and active. I’m also the owner of an energetic 8-month-old Blue Heeler, so I understand the importance of keeping dogs mentally stimulated, exercised, and engaged. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just some cuddles on the couch, I’m here to make them feel right at home. My blue heeler, Kota, has gone through heat so I do have experience with caring for puppies in this stage and would ensure that there are no unneutered males there at the same time. I provide a safe, calm, and fun environment, and I treat every pet like my own. I live in a townhouse style condo and am local to many walking/hiking trails. I’d love to meet your furry family member and help care for them while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be fully present and attentive to the pets I care for throughout the day. Since my Blue Heeler is still a puppy, I’m already used to planning my day around potty breaks, playtime, walks, and training sessions—so adding another furry friend into the mix is something I’m well prepared for. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and care, no matter the time of day! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home: I offer a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for play, rest, and attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely—mealtimes, walks, medication if needed, and play—so they feel right at home. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and of course, cuddles and affection! In a client’s home: I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s usual routine. I maintain consistency with feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific care instructions you provide. I make sure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment, and I keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you're away.

“Josh and Nicole were awesome- we were so nervous about leaving our new dog while we went away for over a week, but they made it so easy. They spoiled her just like we would have, sent us constant updates, and kept up with her medications with no issue. They took great care of our cats in our home at the same time as well. Definitely recommend.”


“Tessia was great! She updated me periodically to let me know how my dog was doing through updates via the Rover app. She was also great enough to pick my dog up and drop him off as needed! Would recommend her to anyone!”


“Christina was great with our 6 month old puppy and has 2 adorable dogs that our puppy played with. Responsive and reliable and sent check-ins while we were away. Definitely recommend!”


About: I am available 24/7 to care for your furry family member. I am very responsive and easy to get a hold of at all times. You’ll get plenty of updates and pictures during their stay. I keep a safe, clean, and friendly environment at all times. I have 2 furry boys who are very playful and full of energy, they will give good company for your pups. I have a acre of fenced in land with a pool. I am here to help, let me know what you need and I will do my best to accommodate! Working from home allows me to be available throughout the day to hang with the pups and keep a watchful eye while they play. I enjoy leash free walks at Stratham Hill Park with my boys, if your pup is good with free leash walk, I can take them for a walk too. They also get plenty of time to run around free in the fenced in backyard. I currently work from home, as a result I'm able to provide 24 hour attention to your pup. My services include boarding and day care. Your pup will have plenty of friends to socialize and play with during their stay. We have lots of toys to play tug, fetch and chase. I am pretty active and enjoy playing with the boys/gals or taking them on a walk during the day.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid from fish, guinea pigs, bunnies, cats, dogs, you name it. I’ve nannied and watched their dogs. I’ve had roommates with animals. Love to take care of animals and give them all the attention! I work from home full-time, so caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m always around to give walks, cuddles, and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday stroll or some playtime between meetings, I love incorporating pet care into my schedule! I don’t have a yard but I live very close to a dog park if that’s something you’re comfortable with. I also live by a trail and a few miles from the beach. Your animal can easily be crated/uncrated based upon your preferences. I am very big on making sure the animal trusts me before doing anything else.

“My pups loved going to Ashley’s! We had a last minute booking and I am very grateful to have found her. One of my pups is skittish and she took to her right away. You can tell Ashley loves dogs and they love her. Thank you again Ashley!”
