Doggy Day Care in West Roxbury, Boston

“Anna is extremely kind and caring and super at communicating throughout the day. I can tell she makes my puppy very happy! Can also tell she pays close attention to detail in her care of dogs. Anyone would be quite lucky to have her dog sit for them! Nothing but a glowing review from me.”

About: At Pooch Hotel, our goal is to provide a happy, healthy, and safe environment for your pet when they're away from home. We keep the environment as low stress as possible and follow a regular schedule. If a health concern should arise, we have relationships with several local veterinary clinics and emergency hospitals. Depending on the situation, pets will be first brought to their primary veterinarian for treatment. We will always contact the owner in the case of a medical problem requiring veterinary care.

“Isabel did a great job caring for my dog on two separate days. She took Molly for walks right after we arrived to help ease Molly's anxiety and she was very responsive to me too.”

About: Pls note: My husband Alieu (Ali-you) has started to help me manage bookings when possible. He will help with boarding and housesitting gigs, and will also join for meet and greets! I’ve had cats and dogs in my household since I was a toddler, including a cat and a pup with chronic and terminal illnesses of which I was the primary care giver. I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes, and also comfortable with giving medications as directed. I have about 9 years experience being the primary caregiver for my own pets. Currently I have a 4yo pitbull husky mix named Blueberry (cat, dog, and human friendly)! I love going for long walks (allowing pups to sniff to their hearts content) and also open to hanging out at your house to provide care in the comfort of your pets own home. I also have some experience training Blueberry so I’m happy to pass along what I’ve learned! I use they & she pronouns. Born & raised in Boston. Beginning August 2025, I will be in training to become a Midwife. Excited to meet you and your pet! Some notes for my services: * Boarding: Your pup comes to me! I can only accept potty trained pups for boarding. I will only take multiple pups for boarding if they’re from the same household / friend group and have met. Requests for boarding can only be tentatively confirmed until I’ve seen how your pups and Blueberry get along at a pre-meet. * House sitting: I come to your pet(s)! My disclaimer is that have my own pup at home and prefer not to spend the night. As long as your pet is okay on their own overnight, I’m happy to work with pets of varied backgrounds/needs/training levels. I can only accept one house sitting booking at a time per Rover restrictions. * Drop ins: I come to your pet! Same notes as house sitting, within the context of shorter visits. I will do a short walk (15 mins) with pups during drop in visits unless instructed otherwise. If you’re not sure, just ask! I can be flexible (at my own discretion) and always open to answering questions. Beginning August 2025, I am training to become a Midwife. My husband Alieu helps with all my bookings, which is especially helpful if I get called away to attend a birth. We are flexible with availability, so always feel free to reach out if you need something! Your pets safety and security is my top priority! Please be sure to let me know the essentials of caring for your pet. You can expect that I’ll communicate openly and I’m not afraid to ask questions if needed.

“Wanda was a terrific dog sitter. This was our puppy Sheva's first overnight away from home, and Wanda (and her own dog Milo) settled her down very quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to call on Wanda again the next time we need someone to watch over Sheva.”

“Wanda was very responsive and able to accomidate my dog at the last minute. She did a great job taking care of my pup for the day and I'd definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a good sitter.”

“Margaret and her expert care is everything we could have ever hoped for! She has an intuitive, trusting manner that let Mica know immediately that she was safe, trusted, and cared for. Margaret asked the right questions, set up an environment perfect for Mica's comfort, and let her explore safely to her heart's content. When we arrived to pick her up, Margaret was laughing and playing with Mica, enjoying her antics. Our pup came home tired, exercised and happy. It couldn't be better; thank you, Margaret!”

About: I have been a dog owner for many years, with a major preference for small dogs. Not only do I have lots of experience caring for my own pets, but I have sat and cared for the dogs of many different friends and family, as well as those I don’t personally know well, over the years. I am patient, loving, always try to have fun with the dogs, and always try to give them the best care possible. I’ve had dogs all my life. I got my first dog, Lukey, when I was young and he was my best friend. Originally got him for my mother to keep her company, but fell in love with him myself and made him my own once she passed. I’d take him through the woods on walks and we eventually became inseparable. He passed at age 18. Eventually I met a woman who had two dogs of her own and they became like my kids. I had them for many years, although sadly they are all passed now as well. Currently I help care for two dogs with my ex who lives in the apartment below me, as we are still good friends. I make sure they are well cared for and take them out regularly. I love to play with them. I take dogs very seriously as they are like family to me. I can currently work Monday-Saturday, with exceptions. I do have to schedule around some minor things early in the morning, and those take priority, and those can be discussed, but otherwise I’m completely free. I love animals and always try to give them 100% of the love and attention they deserve. I feed them, walk them, take them out and play with them, and always try to give them my best. I’ve always treated my own dogs as if they were my children, and I extend that to any dog I care for.

About: I have been a dog owner since 2013 when I got my first pup, The Great Gazoo! I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs, dogs with anxiety, and dogs with some medical needs.

I live with my partner and 2 teenagers who also have a lot of dog experience! Your dog will be well taken care of by all of us and will receive plenty of love and attention!

About: I have taken care of various animals such as cats, dogs, and, guinea pigs. I am communicative, flexible, and enjoy caring for and playing with many animals!

I pay close attention to detail and will be very patient and caring for your pet!

About: I love animals! Over the course of my life I have had three dogs. One that required medication daily. I have experience with senior dogs( my last dog was 16 ).

I come from a family a dogs. I have pet sat for my brothers Wheaton terriers and other pets of family and friends. I will treat your pet like they are my own! I am a stay at home mom and home most of the time. I usually walk with my dog ,Sammy 3-4 times a day. My neighborhood is great for walking and there a park very close to my house. I am very capable of taking care of puppies to senior dogs and will treat them as my own. My street and neighborhood have lots of trees that your pet can sniff! Down my street there is a park great for walking and playing. I live in a 2 family home that has plenty of room that your fur baby can play around in. I have a 13 year-old daughter and a 14 year-old son that have been around pets their whole life. They will play and care for your pet like there’s no tomorrow.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life and even had a cat with asthma growing up! I truly love each on with my whole heart and dedicate time each day to play and groom them. If I can help a busy family with that aspect, it’d be a joy for me :) I’m currently studying for my NCLEX exam to become a registered nurse and waiting to start my job at the end of the summer! This is great way for me to make some money in between the transition of college and work. I love animals and have always had them growing up. Currently, I’m living with my grandmother where we share the responsibility of 7 cats and 1 dog!
