Top rated Newtonville doggy day care sitters

“Anna is extremely kind and caring and super at communicating throughout the day. I can tell she makes my puppy very happy! Can also tell she pays close attention to detail in her care of dogs. Anyone would be quite lucky to have her dog sit for them! Nothing but a glowing review from me.”


“Jeongeun was absolutely fantastic! We were on a day trip to Boston for an appointment and we were visiting from out of State- we needed someone to take care of our puppy and Jeongeun did such a great job. She kept us posted and sent us photos and we are very happy with her services. 100% recommend!”


“Tae is incredible. You can tell she really loves dogs. Gizmo had an amazing time with Tae and Udon, and he came back happy after playing all day. Highly recommend Tae to provide company with your furry friend!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Xiaoting. He has taken amazing care of my dog, Belle, and it’s such a relief knowing she’s in kind, capable hands. He keeps me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gives me so much peace of mind. His dog, Raphael, is wonderful with Belle and gets along great with other dogs too — such a sweet companion for her during the day. It’s clear he’s a true dog lover with a gentle, thoughtful approach. I’m so grateful to have found him and will absolutely continue using his services!”



“Ismael and his wife were so great to Sadie. Their home is very dog-friendly with a big fenced-in backyard. They sent photos throughout the day that made us so much more comfortable. We will definitely be going back!”

“Alix is an excellent sitter for Rudy! She is super communicative and takes great care of Rudy! She made us feel super comfortable and provided him with plenty of cuddles!”


“Summer loves spending the day with Christina and Cooper! You can tell from her excitement as soon as she sees Christina. Christina is super responsive as well.”


“Holly was great with our 14-year old labradoodle. She was able to accommodate a last minute request as well as make Cricket feel at home, despite the fact that our senior dog is very attached to us.”


“Cora took great care of my energetic 1 year old golden retriever Winter. Winter is very sweet but not the easiest pup to deal with. It seemed like Cora handled her with ease and winter had a great day! Cora sent plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day. I’d highly recommend!”


“Rui was awesome! She's super accommodating and flexible, and my dog Petunia had a great time.”


“Natalia was wonderful with my young puppy. She watched her for a very long day and was able to accommodate a very early drop off which I greatly appreciated! She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day.”


“Adrian was amazing with Chuck! I really appreciated his flexibility with my schedule. We would highly recommend:)”


“Sam was willing to accommodate an early morning drop off for my girl Roxy. He made sure to take her outside to get some energy out and wasn't upset when Roxy had an accident inside the house. He was very kind and made sure Roxy had her favorite toy and bed so she was as comfortable as possible. My girl was sound asleep on the ride home! Overall great experience and would high recommend!”


“The best!”


About: Growing up with a Doberman as part of my family gave me a lifelong appreciation for the joy and companionship pets bring. Over the past five years, I’ve been lucky enough to dog-sit my sister’s adorable and gentle Italian Greyhounds, and it’s been a wonderful experience filled with walks, mini hikes, playful moments, and plenty of cuddles. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, whether it’s ensuring they’re happy and well-cared-for or simply enjoying their company. I’m also fond of cats and understand the unique needs of each animal. As someone who is responsible, trustworthy, and reliable, I take pride in providing the best care for your furry family members. I have a remote job which is laid back most of the time and gives me flexibility to care for your pet, time to play and go for walks. I live near a park perfect for the walks. My apartment is warm and sunny, comfortable for small/mid size pets. I keep things tidy and clean.

“Sara was great and understanding for Abby’s first stay with her. Lots of anxiety on Abby’s part and Sara was extremely helpful. Plan more stays!”


About: I am an avid dog-lover looking to spend time with the most fabulous dogs of the boston area! I grew up with dogs and have been dog walking and sitting for years. I have a very flexible schedule - I am spending the summer studying for the LSAT and like to spend a ton of time outside when I don’t have my head in a book! I live in a house with a fenced-in yard and my 13 year old spaniel, who is an absolute angel! There is always water available for the dogs and they are taken on several walks everyday.

About: I have been regularly dog sitting for my brother, my sister, and my parents for the past two years. Their dogs include a senior mini (but quite large) labradoodle, a 10lb Havanese puppy, two pitbull mixes, and a 90lb retriever/malamute mix - and I love all my dog nieces and nephews equally! :) I enjoy being outdoors so I keep the dogs active, but also love to couch potato with them when that’s their vibe. I currently work remotely for an ocean conservation granting program at the New England Aquarium and only go into the office about once a month. My schedule is super flexible and my boyfriend - a PhD student at Boston University - travels a lot for field work. When he’s away I am happy to do virtually anytime (weeknights and weekends included), but when he’s home I tend to stick to weekdays for dog walks and daycare. I have an unfenced yard and a little forest trail right next to my backyard. I also regularly walk to Belmont (~30 mins) to take dogs on trails for walks in that area. I can also drive us there in my Subaru Outback! I have a couch that pulls out into a big day bed, so I usually cover that with a big blanket and make it cozy for naps in the sunbeams (we have a nice big window in the main room). There is plenty of room if you want to bring a crate or their own bed!

About: I have had dogs almost my entire life. I have been pet sitting on dog vacay and rover for the last several years , before my dog Dora passed away two years when she was 14 years of age. I stopped pet sitting , and was grieving for a while. I am now ready to get back to dog sitting , and want to experience joy of pets again, even if on a temporary basis. I have two children , 8 and 4, and they have been exposed to dogs and cats until recently . We want to have a chance to play with doggies again, and love them! At the moment I am unemployed, and home with my 4 year old. A dog would easily fit in our daily routine, as the dog parents require. I live in a condo association, on the third floor. I do not have a yard, but I will be able to walk your doggie.

About: *25 lb weight limit for boarding* Having owned a dog with health issues like Cushing's Disease and Cancer for 14 years, I understand the love, support, understanding and patience that dogs need. As an experienced pet owner and caretaker, I am happy to spend the day caring for your pet. Attention, affection, and playtime are the only things on my agenda. My home has a fenced in grass area for your pet to both play and do their business in. Additionally, I have a Furbo camera that allows me to monitor your pet 24/7 if I need to leave momentarily. Lastly, I have many healthy, quality ingredient treats for your dog to enjoy.

Dilyara S.
“"Having Dilya care for my two Italian Greyhounds has been a true blessing! She goes above and beyond in every way—feeding them, taking them on walks and mini hikes, and even dressing them in cozy outfits for cold weather. My pups adore her playful energy and cuddles, and I know they’re in the best hands when she takes them to vet appointments or handles drop-offs and pick-ups from doggy daycare when I’m away. She’s responsible, caring, and genuinely loves my dogs as if they were her own. I couldn’t ask for a better caregiver!"”

Christina J.
“There isn't a more reliable and dog-savvy person to place your trust in taking care of your fur baby than Christina. She grew up with two Havanese and helps us out watching our third Havanese, a nine month old puppy, at her home in Watertown when we're away. Christina is an extremely level-headed, smart woman with dog whisperer qualities that I know will have you being a repeat client once you try her out!”
