Doggy Day Care in Nichewaug

“Cooper just loves going to Michael's for the day. Mike always makes sure he's happy. He also gets some play time with the other dogs which he just loves.”

“Mandy was fantastic! Our Doberman loved her overnight visits with Mandy. We will definitely use Mandy again in the future! She was super flexible and extremely dependable.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes. From training puppies to caring for senior dogs. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic large breeds to small lap dogs, and always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. I am freshly post-grad and am looking to spend my summer outside with animals!! I have a very flexible schedule from quick stop ins to long term stays. I have a large back yard and a small 9 year old Malshie to keep your pup company when in my home! When in your home, the more rules the better. Tell me all your pets quirks so they can still have the best time while your away!

About: Ive been caring for pets for many years. I had a dog walking business over a decade ago. We taken care of our own and others elderly dogs. We like taking dogs on long off leash walks in groups if possible. Dogs are always welcome to cuddle up on the furniture. Im a stay at home-mom, homeschooling. We go to play groups and trips but we can plan our day around dog walks. We take the dogs out first thing in the morning on leash as our yard isnt fenced. We are happy to come feed kitties and water plants. We love taking dogs out on walks and caring for them in our home. We love going on long walks mid day out in nature

“I feel so lucky to have found Sofie and Teryn! They took such great care of my two dogs for the whole day. I was thrilled to get pictures right away and throughout the day while I was gone. I hope to use their services many times to come. Javi and Rocky were happy and very well-cared for at the beautiful home. Thank you!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I've always been a very empathetic person and just love to wave and say hi to dogs going by. I've had dogs of all sizes. My most recent is experience with Chihuahuas. I just love them! I've raised 2 dogs from 8 weeks old. I love all stages of a dogs life, from puppy to senior. I also have experience with senior dogs who need special care and medication. I'm currently working for myself, so I have plenty of time to spend playing, caring, loving and walking with your pets. I'm available M-F 9-6 pm. I like to make sure the pet is comfortable. I want the pet to feel at home with me. The least amount of change from the pets daily activities are important for the pet to feel safe and happy.

“Luiz and his family are amazing! Took such good care of my pup Bentley. Treated him like their own. So many cute videos and pictures sent through out the day! Bentley came home exhausted from all the play time. He also loves their dog Molly. Definitley will be booking stays there again. Highly recommend for any pet parent looking for a safe and caring place to leave their babies.”

About: I have had indoor cats for the past 24 years. I have pet sat for dogs and cats personally. I have house sat twice for a dachshund and doberman. These were contacts from my mom’s pet sitting job years ago. I had a beta fish for about 3 years. I can walk and play with the dogs and cats, feed them, etc. I will provide what is going on and what is being done, sharing pictures and videos as much is wanted. I currently work full time Monday through Friday. I can work from anywhere. I am available evenings during the week and available on the weekend. This is a side hustle and to offer some help for anyone that need it. We have a dog and a cat. We aren’t sure how our dog and cat would be to other pets in our home. I am happy to come to yours. Whatever is needed.

“Giannina came through at the last minute to watch my dog for the day. I prefer when sitters send photos and videos because it helps me feel reassured that he is content. She is busy with her children so I didn’t receive any. Anyway, I’m happy he was taken care of.”

About: I've been around animals my whole life and currently have two pet goats who we spoil like dogs. We have 30 acres of beautiful land surrounded by woods, which is a perfect haven for running, fetch, and all sorts of outdoor shenanigans. I work remotely from home with a flexible schedule. I typically work a few hours in the morning, and then am outside working on projects and playing with the animals all day. We have a large property (about 30 acres) surrounded by woods with lots of room for your dog to run and explore. We also live near some great hiking trails.

“Thank you Forough and Amir! We were nervous at first how Russell would do and how he would get along with other dogs, so we were so relieved to hear that he fit right in! We would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with Forough and Amir again and look forward to scheduling another visit!”

“Jacky took very good care of our puppy Tucker! He is 3 months old and she was so kind, patient, loving. We are so appreciative that he was able to hangout with her dogs, roam around the yard, and have a nap time buddy! Jacky was great with food, walks, communication. We are so appreciative to have found her!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every age and many breeds since I was 12 years old. I’ve lived with dogs for my whole life. I believe pets deserve special attention and lots of love. I have taken care of pets recovering from surgery, trained puppies, entertained energetic dogs who love long walks and play, and cared for senior cats and dogs. I look forward to caring for your pet! I work from home and have flexibility in my schedule so I am available at lunchtime and in the evenings and all weekend to care for your pets. I have a fenced in yard and no pets of my own currently so your pet would get all the attention. I can crate your dog if they are used to that and also am comfortable without crating if you or your pet doesn’t like that. I have many toys and leashes and am well experienced in caring for pets.

“After flunking out of another doggy daycare in the first ten minutes, my little guy had a great experience with John and the other dogs today. In addition to being a good caretaker, John is a great dog photographer!”

“I’m so glad to have connected with Gabi (and so is my pup)! I could tell right away that she loves and genuinely cares about any dogs who are lucky enough to hang out with her. And Sadie, my slightly nervous/sometimes hyper girl settled right in. Thanks Gabi, we’ll see you soon!”

I live on quiet dead end st. If your dog is boarding with us. At night time, He will have three options. Have its own crate, Or it can be free (as long as it is house trained and won't chase after my other fur-babies -cats- ??) Orrr Sleep in my bed with all my other fur-babies. If you need me to come to your house. I could also do that as well and provide kisses, hugs, playtime, food, water and cleaning. (Special instructions welcome) Oh and please I could also take care of and board Cats or other pets too!!! I love them all and it’s going to be my pleasure! ( I do have a separate area for all my cats and it’s full of fun stuff and catnip ??. But they do have full access of the house at all time) No outdoor cats please. Please come visit me and my fur babies! I am a stay at home mom. And I have plenty of free time in my hands. It would be a pleasure for me and my teens to take care of your pet. It will depend on the client's preference. I could do crating, or free run of the house. (If pet is house trained). Nice decent yard and safe neighborhood.

About: Parents Jessica and Philip are the responsible adults guaranteeing that your dog will get everything they need, but 13-year-old Josie is the primary caretaker of our dog guests. She is a very attentive, loving and engaged pet pal! Since we started on Rover as a summer job for Josie in 2023, we have hosted dogs of all sizes, energy levels and needs and she loved every single one of them. She gets up early every day (whether or not she is caring for a dog) so she often gives the pups their first walk of the day before anyone else has gotten out of bed. In spring of 2023 Josie rescued an Eastern Phoebe (songbird) that was pushed out of its nest and injured; she fed it dry cat food soaked in sugar water and set it free a week later as a robust young fledgling (see pictures). On weekends and school vacations, Josie has little to do other than care for your dog! We are early risers. Our calendar has school days blocked off, but we would consider boarding a dog during the school week if its needs match Josie's availability so please inquire. Both parents work mostly or fully from home and could manage a midday walk for a quiet dog. Jessica is an elementary teacher and education administrator who is accustomed to carrying great responsibility for the safety of precious smaller beings. She closely supervises Josie as the primary caregiver. Our home is in the woods with access to Mt. Toby trails so your pup will get to enjoy the outdoors several times a day. Sometimes dogs who are anxious in the busy neighborhoods of their homes are much calmer when they come to our quiet, wooded setting. We have a flock of chickens in an enclosed outdoor area.

About: I love dogs. I have a rescue her name is Snickers and shes 7 months old. I've had dogs all my life. How anyone can hurt man's best friend is beyond me. She is like my child and makes me smile, keeps me company and I dont know what I would do without her. I love her with all my heart and wouldnt trade her for the world. I would treat anyone's dog like I would my own. They are all special in their own way. I would be honored to take care of your dog, I look forward to meeting you very soon. Thank you, Robin K I work full time at home and I'm able to walk my dog and take her out anytime! I'm available all day. My Snickers would love a play mate. I dont have crate but if yours needs one you'll have to bring it. I'm very diligent in taking my pup out all day long.

“Mipha's first time at daycare after her spay, she was so excited to finally get to play with other doggies. Melissa made sure to update with plenty of pictures and videos. She was also very quick in replying to any messages/questions/requests you may have.”
