Doggy Day Care South Boston

About: I’m a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, from energetic puppies to quirky seniors. I work from home, so I’m able to offer tons of attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the day. Having lived with everything from labs to Pyrenees mixes, I understand the importance of meeting each dog’s unique needs, whether that’s structured walks, gentle senior care, or patient socialization for shy pups. I’m comfortable with big dogs and independent personalities, and my own experience training puppies and supporting older dogs means your pup is in caring, knowledgeable hands.What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for a variety of breeds—including puppies and seniors—and my work-from-home flexibility means dogs get real companionship and attention all day. I understand big, independent, and quirky personalities, and I prioritize individualized care, from puppy training to gentle support for older dogs. I take the time to get to know every dog, building trust through patience, routine, and play. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, not an afterthought. Since I work from home, I’m able to integrate walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day—whether it’s a morning stroll, afternoon games in the park, or relaxed evenings together. My routine is flexible, so dogs always get outside for fresh air and exercise and receive plenty of attention between my work sessions. On weekends, I love exploring new neighborhoods, local parks, or heading to the beach—always bringing dogs along for new adventures. Whether it’s active pups needing stimulation or seniors who prefer a calm presence, I adapt my days to make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and part of my everyday world. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and integrated into my daily routine—regular walks to nearby parks or the beach, supervised playtime, and cozy rest spots throughout my home. I keep to each dog’s familiar schedule as much as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any training or medication routines. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure pets feel secure in their own environment. I follow all instructions closely, from special diet needs to unique quirks or favorite toys, and keep in touch with updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and cared for. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, structure, and genuine affection—whether they’re here for a day, a weekend, or longer.

About: I have had pets in my house for as long as I can remember. Cats, dogs, a bunny, hamsters, geckos, fish, and guinea pigs. I even fostered multiple cats/kittens at a time. I love all the little quirks every dog has and no specific needs are off limits. I also have experience administering meds to dogs and cats. I want the animals to feel love and comfort while with me! I treat animals like family :) I am currently looking for a part time job (hopefully rover!), so my schedule might change. But as of now I am free 7 days a week and any time. I have no pets in my place currently. But I can give your dog walks/potty breaks at any time of the day. The pets are allowed on the couch and in bed if they wanted but if you prefer to bring their crate that’s ok too!

“Emily and Robert took such great care of my dog Jack, they are very responsible and attentive to his needs and special diet.. he also made a new friend with there cute little dog while walking all around the seaport”

“I had an excellent experience with our Jayden. She was available to help my dog and I during a snow storm and I had to go to work! My dog Jack was well cared for and she helped to ease my mind! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she works with. My dog made himself right at home with her and cried when he was dropped off which means he missed her already and had a great time! I really appreciate the updates and peace of mind knowing my dog is in safe, attentive hands. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”

“Dayna & team are the best and I couldn't do my job without them. Thank you for making Southie finally feel like home and caring for my little Dutchess as if she were your own - she adores Louis and loves coming over to play!”

“Our first Roover experience for us and we are so happy about Vienna's stay! Jim and his four years old little boy took amazing care of her and shared some cute videos at the park playing with her favorite ball over the day. We felt super relieved to see that she had a great day and was not too difficult (2 year old high energy golden at home and we were a bit anxious to give her away for a day). Everything went really well and we can't recommend enough Jim! We will use him again next time we need it! :)”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life. I grew up beside them and learned how to care for them at a very early age. I have experience with many different breeds, sizes, personalities, ages; from dogs who were my family, from my friend’s dogs to dogs belonging to people in my local community. Since I’ve been living in Boston for almost a year now, I have scouted out great routes to walk dogs to local spots for play and enjoyment, especially in nature. Special skills include dog breed knowledge, basic commands training, clicker training, animal welfare, and basic wilderness first aid training. I work from home 70% of the time and my schedule is wonderfully quite flexible. I am able to meet basic needs like potty breaks or walks and easily adjust my routine around the dog’s needs. I have worked with many different dog personalities and characteristics before and can take care of your dog however needed. I allow dogs on the bed and couch, have plenty of treats on hand, have many pet friendly locations nearby to take them, etc.

About: Since childhood dogs have been a big part of life. From my big loaf of a mutt growing up, to helping my aunts with their pair of border collies I'm always learning more ways to connect with pets . I live in large loft with lots of space to run and play. Located in Downtown Boston; minutes away from the Greenway, Commons, and Harborwalk. Available for boarding, sitting walks and drop-ins. I have years of experience with big dogs, puppies and elderly pooches. I offer structured walks. These aren't just quick bathroom breaks. I provide focused, active walks tailored to your dog's energy level. For high-energy or larger breeds, this includes paced exercise to ensure they get a thorough workout; for seniors or smaller dogs, we take a gentler, scent-driven approach to keep them mentally stimulated without overexertion. I work entirely from home and within the immediate local neighborhood. This setup grants me excellent scheduling fluidity, allowing me to accommodate midday requests, early morning routines, or late-evening check-ins with ease. When your pet is in my care, they receive structured, high-quality attention. Because my day is entirely organized around pet safety and lifestyle needs, I am highly reliable, prompt, and capable of spending extended, quality time keeping your dog company. Taking care of furry friends has turned from my favorite hobby to my 9-5 (sometime 24/7 lol). Available for last minute booking. Just ask! I am very experienced with high energy breeds. Boredom can lead to stress, so I incorporate interactive play, puzzle toys, and basic command reinforcement into our time together to keep their minds sharp and focused. I have a well provisioned toychest to keep your pooch engaged and active as well as a lifetime worth of tips and tricksk up my proverbial sleeves. Centrally located for convenient dropoff/pickup near Logan Airport. Multiple dog parks within walking distance. Stay-at home full time attention for your pet.

“Jhona was a great host - kind, responsive and patient with noodle, my 2-year old Maltese. Noodle is anxious, and takes time to open up and adjust but Jhona was able to handle him without any issues. Regular updates and pictures were shared with me, and I highly recommend Jhona to anyone in need of a sitter :)”

“Mayu loves getting dropped off to Atticia’s for daycare. She’s walked, fed, rested, and loved all day and comes home ready to knock out. I’m also so happy Mayu has a dog friend with Aurora- I think it’s really helped with her manners and socialization skills. Thank you for all you do, Atticia!”
