Doggy Day Care Upper Montclair

“They only let you leave 5 Stars…. That’s not enough Stars for what I wanted to leave for Megan! Waylon and Khaleesi didn’t want to leave! For our first Rover experience she sets the bar high for our next sitter. We highly recommend Megan for all of your fur baby needs! Ours stayed over night and Megan kept us to to date with photos and updates on the entire visit. Thank you Megan for loving our babies while we enjoyed a fun get away!”

“I was so nervous to drop off my newly rescued small Chiweenie and Geoff and Jenny did such a good job caring for him with so much love. Super friendly and accommodating. I can’t wait for him to go back to another doggy daycare day!”

“Tracy and Steven go above and beyond! I do not mean that as an exaggeration. Like they seriously go the extra mile. I booked very very last minute and Tracy came and got my baby! I was updated with a lot of pictures and videos and never in my life seen my baby more comfortable and happy there than any other Rover service I have used. They will forever be my go to!”

About: I spent the past 4 years running a successful dog-watching business in NYC with my partner. We have since relocated to Northern NJ and intend to provide the same high quality services for pets here. I grew up with animals - dogs, rabbits, birds, mice, turtles and fish. I would’ve had cats too if members of my family weren’t so allergic. As a teen I volunteered with friends at our local animal shelter and chose to work with the cat population because most of the volunteers wanted to walk the dogs. Most recently I trained my own dog - starting from when she was 6 weeks old. I used a combination of training techniques (including crate training) to successfully potty-train her, teach her to walk on a leash and eventually teach her to hike and run together off-leash. My dog is now 3 years old and I bring her to my grandmother’s assisted living facility. She interacts with and plays appropriately with other dogs, pets, adults and children of all ages. She is a secure dog and adaptable to any environment. I believe my dog’s calm and friendly demeanor is a direct reflection of my skills. I’m prepared to handle dogs across the spectrum of sizes and energy levels. I live close to many beautiful parks and trails, some with dedicated areas for dog-play. I will closely follow any instructions you have for feeding, exercising, sleeping and socializing your precious pet. I work part-time from home and set my own schedule so I am able to dedicate the appropriate time and attention to your pet easily. I will treat your pet like part of my family if they stay with me. I have a very calming presence that animals seem to react really well too. I am happy to watch your pet at your place if that works best. I provide an engaging, safe environment no matter the location.

“Cinthia was amazing with Koda. She was very communicative and provided regular updates throughout the day. I felt very comfortable with her watching my dog and knowing he was in good hands. Would totally recommend leveraging cinthia if you have the opportunity.”

“Yuberkis was amazing! She took care of Simba so well. Kept me updated every little while with pictures and videos. And Simba made a new friend too! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Simba!”

About: I know the specific 'sad eyes' when you pack your bags. My goal is to make my home feel your home and know the exact ways your dog likes their ears scratched, so your dog feels like they’re on a vacation, not just waiting for you to return. I’m home full-time, an early riser, and an active person so I can easily take on your dogs routine and any special needs or requests. I have a fenced yard and a neighborhood with sidewalks. I have three children who love dogs as well and understand safety around meeting new dogs. We are a dog family and love to cuddle!

“Darien was great with Zoey and very professional! Zoey adjusted super quickly and was not timid around her or in her home at all. Definitely would recommend!”

About: I have fostered & boarded dogs over the last four years and have a dog of my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all shapes, sizes and special accommodations. Your dog will be at home, spoilt and will be cared for with and like my own dog. I work from home and am available the whole day to care for your furbaby. I provide playtime, enrichment, walking and potty breaks as needed. Your dog will always have the supervised company of my friendly dog. S/he will be allowed on all the furniture and can be crated if needed!

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs at every stage. From energetic puppies who need patience and structure, to adolescent dogs learning good habits, to our sweet senior dogs who benefit from a slower pace and extra attention. I also have experience volunteering with animal shelters, which taught me how to work with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and anxiety levels. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet as an individual. Some dogs want an adventure buddy, some want a cuddle companion, and others just need a calm, reliable presence while their owners are away. I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. As a high school teacher, I'm patient, responsible, and highly communicative. I'll treat your pet like a member of my own family and am happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I'm a teacher on summer break with flexible hours. I understand our furry friends don't always live by the same schedule we do, and am happy to provide them with the midday walks/socialization they need so you can come home to a happy pet. I'm happy to provide care in your home, secure yard, or neighborhood where your pet is most comfortable. Care in my home involves comfy couch access, walks on streets with sidewalks, and plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I strive to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. Safety is my top priority, so I always use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, closely supervise outdoor time, and make sure pets have a calm, clean, and comfortable environment. Upon request, I am happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

“Alex is great with Shea. She is happy to spend time at his house, and I know that she is good hands when I can’t care for her myself. Would highly recommend.”

“Our dog had a great time staying with Digdem, we left him for a few hours with her and her dogs and he was cared for well and had fun. We would highly recommend Digdem”

“I was honestly very nervous using an online dog sitter for the first time because my biggest fear was being scammed or something happening to my dog. But from the moment I dropped my dog off, Paloma made me feel completely at ease. She communicated with me throughout the entire day, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and was always quick to respond. It was so comforting seeing how loved, safe, and cared for my dog was while I was away. You can truly tell she cares about the animals she watches. I’m so grateful for the experience, and I would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my family, and as a proud owner of three dogs, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I know that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. My home features a large backyard for supervised outdoor play and a spacious indoor area where dogs can relax, socialize, and feel comfortable. Because I care for dogs every day, I am familiar with feeding schedules, exercise needs, basic obedience reinforcement, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, including energetic puppies and senior dogs who may need extra patience and attention. Safety, communication, and plenty of love are my top priorities, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and loving home-away-from-home where every dog feels welcome, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I have three dogs of my own. My days are structured around feeding, exercise, outdoor time, play, and making sure my dogs are happy and comfortable. Because of this, caring for additional dogs fits naturally into my schedule. I am home throughout most of the day to provide supervision, attention, potty breaks, exercise, and companionship. Dogs in our care receive plenty of interaction, outdoor playtime in our large backyard, and a comfortable indoor environment to relax and rest. I am available throughout the week for daycare I strive to maintain each dog's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and at home. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, dogs are cared for in a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play, relax, and socialize. I have a large backyard for supervised outdoor activities and a comfortable indoor area where dogs can rest and stay cool during hot weather or warm during colder months. Because I have three dogs of my own, I understand the importance of proper introductions, supervision, and ensuring all pets feel safe and comfortable. I carefully monitor interactions, follow feeding schedules and any special instructions provided by pet parents, and make sure fresh water is always available. I treat every pet as a member of our family and provide plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and mental stimulation throughout the day. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while they're away.

“Service 10/10 raya was super sweet and helpful kept me updated on my puppies care, very fast response and from the looks of things my puppy had fun. Will definitely be using her again”

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs ever since I could remember. I have a lot of experience and love for animals of all kinds. My family and friends have relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and care for their pets for many years! I am currently attending Berklee College of Music so i’m available at anytime on the weekend and most times during the week, if you contact me we can definitely work something out! I live in a pretty spacious apartment where your dog can have more than enough space to walk around, and although I grew up with 3 dogs in my home town, I do not have any dogs here in Boston so there is no worry about whether or not your dog with get along with other dogs. This way I will be able to give my full, undivided attention to your dog while I’m on the job. I am a student at Berklee College of Music and have some classes during the week but I am pretty flexible as they are only a couple of hours out of the day. I am completely free on weekends. I love animals and they deserve the best. I give my pets lots of love, and pets, and cuddles; and I treat every pet that I care for, and my own.

About: I provide boutique, in-home dog boarding for families looking for calm, consistent, and experienced care, not a kennel environment. I'm insured and can provide excellent verifiable references I'm home with you pup and I have a beautiful park across the street from me for lots of walks. Pups are allowed on furniture and lots of attention given. Plenty of updates and videos for your peace of mind. I’m insured, have 6+ years of experience, and excellent verifiable references. My home is clean, quiet, and intentionally low-capacity.

“A day for Pip with Amanda and Max is always a great day. They keep an impeccably clean and dog friendly house. And the gorgeous upscale neighborhood has quiet safe streets, so I know Pip is safe on his walks.”
