Doggy Day Care in Stratham

“Words cannot express right now how thankful I am for Karen. Although he's been with me for quite some time, my dog Zeus is originally a shelter dog. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I found it necessary to schedule recurring daycare for him this summer. We never tried daycare before, and - as Zeus finds new environments difficult - I was definitely nervous trying this out. We have done two daytime stays so far, and Karen has been a pleasure to work with. She is very easy to communicate with, and I particularly appreciate her patience with Zeus - as well as with "mom". Karen's approach to working with new dogs - which she communicated right off the bat - was immediately reassuring to me. Having also observed Karen's interaction with dogs a couple of times now, as well as photos of Zeus from his stays with her, I feel confident that I'm leaving my dog in trained and caring hands.”

“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!”

“Hannah was excellent. She responded to me quickly—very important when you have left your search til the last day. She was clear, always very nice, calming, and she checked to be sure that my dog, Frances, had a temperament which did not object to the presence of her, evidently mellow, two dogs and one cat—she was just very good at customer service. I felt very secure with my dog staying in her (and her husband’s) care. She (and they) obviously knows and cares for dogs. I had useful feedback from the visit (my dog was fine with her cat—(and dogs)—though she has had very little exposure to cats—so it appears vibes are what count with Frances. ) Hannah was friendly even when I changed my time plans on the actual day, oh-so-gently informing me she would definitely modify whenever she could, but she was dealing as well with other customers’ sometimes conflicting schedules. She was very good!”

I am a stay at home mom and enjoy spending time caring for animals 🫶🏼. I am available whenever you need me! I have a fenced in yard and would treat your pets with love, as if they were my own. I know how important our pets are to us, and I take animal care very seriously. I can't wait to shower your pet with extra love and hugs while you're away!

“Kristi had our dogs for day while we had a party. She cared for them so we didn’t have to worry. They don’t like being away from home but they did great with her! I wouldn’t hesitate leaving my dogs with her again. And she has had one of them for a week before and was amazing with him sending updates and pictures!!”

“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.”

Kyle M.

“Cleo had a wonderful time at Katelyn’s home with her kids and dogs. Katelyn was an excellent communicator with me and a loving caregiver for Cleo. I would definitely recommend and book again!”

“Michelle cares for our pup as if he were her own. She takes him on fun and frequent walks, sends us photos of him enjoying his stay with her. She is very prompt in returning our requests.”

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.

“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!!”

“Louis had the very best day - (he told me so). Within 2 seconds of being in the car, he passed out. The little doggy pool was right up his alley. Thanks so much for taking such great care of him.”

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: I love animals of all kinds, but my favorite domesticated animal is a dog. I am known by a lot of my clients and people I know personally as “The Dog Whisperer” I have 2 fur babies of my own who I love more than anything on this green earth. When I am taking care of your fur baby or babies, you can be away peacefully, knowing that they are being loved, cared for, and treated as if they were my own. I say “hi” to dogs before I say “hi” to people. I work 3 minutes from my home and usually get home around 3:20pm the latest. I have every other weekend off. I do have to work most holidays but with planning it will work out. If I’m in your home, I will go by your house rules and go with your dog(s) routine the best I can when I am not working. When I am in my own home, I just ask that you bring whatever it is you would use in a day for your furry baby. Leash, harness, food etc. no need for a crate as I have a couple here if needed.

“Kelly was absolutely amazing—extremely communicative, knowledgeable, and easy to deal with throughout the entire process. From the initial meeting to the final pick-up, she made everything seamless and stress-free. Her expertise and genuine love for dogs were evident, providing me with great peace of mind. This won’t be the last time I use her services. Highly recommended!”

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.

“Josh and Nicole were kind enough to accept our last minute day care request and our pup had a great time! We were thankful for their flexibility and the extra help in motivating our dog to eat dinner.”

Emily C.

“Nicole took great care of my dog during a daycare, and she has a safe and awesome yard. It’s always hard leaving your best friend with a new sitter, but I could tell that my dog had a great day and we will definitely come back to Nicole’s for future daycare and boarding!”

About: Being a sitter allows me to spend time with one of my favorite animals. I am very responsible and enjoy the company of all sorts of dogs. I love to run so if you have an energetic dog who loves to run I’m down. I also have a car I can take dogs in to local parks and dog parks. Dogs are such great companions and they deserve to have a good time outside and have attention. I would not mind taking care of puppies either. I had a dog with big anxiety while taking baths and meeting new dogs. I’ll always be by there side to have a fun time! I have one adorable frenchie who loves to play and needs constant attention. I bring her to the park everyday. She’s a great companion when I am at home and off doing errands. So finding time for new dogs will never be a problem. I am willing to do whatever it takes to make sure a dog is comfortable and safe in my home. I have a tub for baths and cleaning supplies form my own dog. They will be in great hands.

About: Looking for a dog sitter or walker who’s truly pawsome? I’m your person! My journey with dogs kicked off at 15, when I started volunteering at the SPCA, walking furry friends every chance I got. The moment I could work at 16, I dove headfirst into the world of doggy daycare, spending six incredible years at Play All Day Doggy Care. There, I became a pro at reading dog body language, diffusing any pack tension, and noticing the little things—like when a pup’s feeling under the weather or just needs a break from the playgroup. By 21, I leveled up to dog trainer, honing my skills at Atlantic K9 for two years. Now, I’m proud to run my own dog training business, working alongside the amazing team at Ridgeside K9 New England. I am a certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator. Dogs aren’t just my job—they’re my passion, and I bring that love and expertise to every wagging tail I meet! I have 3 beautiful dogs of my own, 4 year old golden retriever, 4 year old husky mix and a 6 month old German shepherd As a full-time dog trainer, my schedule is built around furry friends, giving me the perfect flexibility to weave pet care into my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s taking dogs on energizing walks, popping in for quick potty breaks, leading adventure-filled hikes, or hosting fun play sessions, I’m all about keeping pups happy and active. My life revolves around dogs, so caring for them fits seamlessly into my day—every moment is an opportunity to make a tail wag! Whether I’m caring for pets at my home or yours, I’m all about creating a safe, fun, and stress-free environment for every furry guest! At my place, I’ve got two acres of land, with a partially fenced area perfect for dogs to stretch their legs and explore. My three friendly pups are kept separate from client dogs unless there’s a perfect playmate match—and only with the owner’s enthusiastic approval. When I’m at a client’s home, clear and consistent communication is my top priority to ensure their fur babies feel right at home. From cozy cuddles to lively playtime, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs, making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and wagging their tails!

“This was our first time using the Rover app and we picked the perfect person to care for our fur baby! Kiley sent us videos and pictures throughout the day and when we went to pick him up she shared how much she loved him! We are thrilled to hear this and can’t wait to have him stay there again.”
