Doggy Day Care Norwood

“We were delighted with the care for Hugo. We were nervous about leaving him with a new family in unaccustomed surroundings but he clearly had a nice time and was very relaxed when he came home.”

About: I've had dogs all my life, various breeds. Learned alot about them over the years. Have 3 dogs currently. I have given dogs medication before I look after dogs every single day all the time. I take care of my dogs needs first before my own so I know that they have everything they need on time and are happy and content. I care and treat other people's dogs as if they were my own and I treat mine as if they are family because they are. I would bring a leash to walk the dog if the owner doesn't have one, have doggie bags, safe dog treats, and during the hot months a little water dish and water in case the dog is thirsty. It's important to always be prepared.

“Duffy had a great time during her first visit with Sean and his dogs. She was exhausted when she arrived home from all the running and playing. We'd recommend Sean to anyone in the area for dog-sitting.”

“Brian took great care of Charlie today. He responded quickly to messages and shared lots of pictures and information during the day. We would definitely work with Brian again and recommend him to all!”

About: I have cared for all sizes and breeds of dog (ranging from 3lb to 115lbs) and I have experience caring for senior dogs and puppies! I’ve owned dogs of my own as well, and I truly love being around and caring for them. I’ve become very comfortable reading dogs’ body language and understanding their individual needs and personalities. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I have plenty of time for dog sitting/visits in your home, dog walking, or boarding at my home or your home (if not too far!) I have a nice big back yard for your dog/dogs to roam. They would have access to the whole house. Can be crated if requested!

About: I have a 9 year old Shih Tzu, her name is Zola. She loves people and other animals. I am currently home more then expected and would love to help other working people with their pets. If your pet needs a certain food or specific routine, let me know and I am happy to help maintain the normal. When I first got my dog, it was so hard to leave her during the day when I went to work. She was so small, and I didn't want her to be lonely. I understand how hard it is to leave a fur child and want to help others be comfortable knowing they are being looked after during the day or overnight. I will love them like my own. I am currently working from home and have ability to 'schedule' accordingly to cover dog needs - walking or playing and to schedule time as needed to walk near by dogs as well. I do not have a fenced yard. I walk with a leash. I can 'fence' in a small area for free time in the yard. I also can let dogs out on the deck and use 'gates' to block stairs. I care for all pets the same as I do my own. I work remote and have a flexible schedule allowing me to play with and walk your pups at various times. And a lot of time for snuggles and petting I have a good size deck with fenced entrances for general relaxation outside. My yard is not fully fenced but a good size for small dog play

“Dan provided great communication before the visit and excellent care for our 10 yr old German Shepherd mix. Highly recommend!”

“Zeppi had a great day with Courtney! Courtney understood he was nervous and took steps to help him settle in and get comfortable.”

About: I focus on calm, structured, and reliable dog care — especially for dogs that need consistency and clear routines. What I do differently: • Maintain a structured daily routine (walks, rest, feeding on schedule) • Provide a calm and controlled home environment (no chaos, no overcrowding) • Give regular photo/video updates so you always know how your dog is doing I’m especially a great fit for: • High-energy dogs that need structured walks • Dogs that feel anxious in new environments • Owners who want clear communication and peace of mind Services: • Dog walking (30/60 min) • Drop-in visits • House sitting • Boarding (safe, clean, supervised environment) My goal is simple: 👉 Your dog stays calm, safe, and well cared for 👉 You don’t have to worry while you’re away I am currently working from home. I have plenty of time to take good of your pets except on Wednesday Thursday You can drop them off anytime - in order to maintain a healthy environment, I require all dogs to stay with us to be up-to-date with all their vaccines -Dogs who exhibit “marking “behavior will not be accepted -Dogs with any aggressive issue toward people will not be accepted. Thanks for understanding

“Ling and Ye were great with my puppy! I had to work a very, very long day and they were very accommodating with an early drop off and late pick up. They also made me feel comfortable by sending pictures throughout the day to reassure me that she was having a great day. I will definitely hire them again!”

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, and they have always been one of my major passions. From small animals, to dogs and cats, to chickens, livestock, and horses - I've seen it all! I spent some time as a animal science/pre-vet student before Covid, and worked for a horse breeder/trainer for 3 years where I coordinated daily care for our animals, as well as helped client's with training and lessons while taking a break from university. I have since graduated and been immersed in the world of financial services for the last few years, and work from home along with my father. We both enjoy walking, and live right on the Blue Hills Skyline trail, so can go for a quick loop or 9 mile hike out of our back door. We also have a gated portion of the yard off of the patio, as well as a large front grass field that are all welcome to be taken advantage of by our four-legged friends. We lost our family dog about 2 years ago and enjoy having a furry friend in the house, but are not ready for the heartbreak that eventually comes along with bringing another dog into our family. We would love to host your dog as a part of our family to enjoy our attention, care, and access to great outdoor amenities for a dog that likes to explore, sniff, or go on hikes. Also great for a dog that enjoys having a fenced area. I work from home every day of the week, so I don't have any requirements to be out of the house. I tend to wake up on the earlier side and enjoy going for a walk, as well as a walk around lunchtime and the evening. I am consistent with whatever routine your dog requires, and like to cater towards what makes them the happiest and most at home. Your dog will have nearly 24/7 attention, and I am very glad to provide! We have a number of options in our home depending on your comfortability with your dogs access to the home/garden. We have a fenced area off of the side of the house with an attached mudroom (if dogs prefer to sleep alone, this can be a good option), as well as a large front field and access to the Blue Hills hiking trails. The kitchen is gated, so we tend to spend time in this space with the dog to keep an eye on them. We have a large crate available and are happy to set up your dogs crate if needed. We are happy to allows the dogs on the living room couch, but can keep them off if you prefer them to keep their feet on the floor - we have a large variety of dog beds as well throughout the house. The dogs are welcome in the bed/bedroom depending on your preferences, just let me know where you would like them to stay. There are currently no animals in the home.

“Jess is absolutely great . She was able to accommodate to our last-minute request for daycare for our dog Bruno and was very understanding of our dog’s needs. She kept sending pictures and updates which gave us piece of mind during these times when our dog needs to be monitored. We’re looking forward for Bruno’s next boarding stay with Jess.”

About: I have one dog and have fostered over a dozen others, including various breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have experience working with super energetic dogs and reactive dogs and love training! I am home for the summer, and I am available all day, because I am working from home! My schedule is very flexible so let me know what works best for you :). Safety is always my number one priority. I have lots of experience reading animal behavior. Please tell me what I should know about your pets or before coming to your home, and if there are any precautions you would like me to take in order to keep your pets happy and healthy! I will always keep dogs on leash, and keep water and treats with me. Will send updates and picture/videos too!

“I had an issue with modifying my booking and Eric was super helpful at reaching out to Rover and making sure the problem was corrected. I really appreciate his help!”
