Dog Boarding in Newport

Pat was amazing! Communication throughout this experience was easy and clear. She made us feel at ease with leaving our puppy with someone else for the first time. Pat even provided regular check-ins with photos so we could see how great our pup was doing. We’ll definitely be reaching back out next time we are out of town.

My family and I moved from San Diego, California to Newport, Rhode Island. The trip lasted about 6 days(Driving). We had our 4 month old daughter and Frida, our 2.5 year old Akita dog. The trip was great but there was a small problem, my wife and I during the trip, planned to travel to Puerto Rico to visit my mother as soon as we get to Rhode Island, without taking into account that we had Frida with us. We were used to travel all the time when we lived in San Diego because we had friends who stayed with Frida, now we have no one here in the East Coast. A friend recommended Rover, he had used this website multiple times and he loves it. What I like about Rover is all the information it contains, the daily tips and the reviews. So, we put Frida's information, what she likes what she does not like, her diet, how often she takes her vitamins pills etc. We also added the dates so it was the week of the fourth of july so you can imagine how busy it was going to be that week. When the information was already in, Rover gave us about 20 people within a 15-mile radius. Brian was the first to appear on the list, the reviews and his profile was what led us to make the decision to leave Frida with him. We were very nervous since it was the first time we left Frida with a stranger and also the first time Frida was going to interact with other dogs. Since we chose Brian, he always had communication with us since two days before leaving Frida with him. When we got to Brian's house the first thing we noticed was the huge fenced yard, that is an A +. The way he received us was as if he had known us for a long time. Frida interacted with Jake (Brian's dog) at first she was not very happy but after five minutes she started to wiggle her tail so she was ok. Brian sent us photos and updates of Frida every day without having to tell him. The details and the love he has for dogs make him unique. Thanks for the good care you and your family gave Frida.

Kimberly took great care of our four month old puppy. He’s a lot of work, and she was up to the challenge. He was well cared for and loved. She also sent pictures of him every day which showed a very happy puppy.

Felt very comfortable leaving our 5 mo. old puppy in Steven’s care. During her stay with Steven, we received many updates with photos and video, which we very much appreciated. We loved that Steven took time to learn her routines and rituals to mimic her time at home as close as possible. She had a great time playing with his two dogs! We hope to use Steven’s services in the future.

Barley always loves his stay with Hailey!

Chey was incredible! Bosun came home happy and so well exercised. She was communicative and sent so many fun photos! I absolutely recommend 💕.

Kate took great care of my dog, Cooper. She took him on daily long walks and sent pictures and updates. We will be using her again next time we are in Newport!

Jennifer was a wonderful sitter for Leo! ♥️ Leo is often a little restless his first night away from us, and Jennifer slept with Leo on the couch to calm him down. She was also very responsive and communicative — we appreciated all the updates and photos. We are grateful Jennifer took such good care of Leo so that we could take a trip to visit one of our (human) sons! ☺️☺️

Mattea took great care of our dog. He went the the beach, for walks, and played with her pup! Thanks so much for the care.

Sharon is awesome with my boy, she’s watched him a few times now and every time has been so communicative and understanding that he’s a little nervous and skittish. She provides comfort, and affection to your pup while keeping you informed how they’re doing. I could not recommend her enough for someone who is as nervous as I was leaving my pup with someone else!

Jordan was an absolute lifesaver when we needed a sitter on very short notice (after our other Rover sitter was a NO SHOW😳). She not only graciously agreed to keep Cody for us, thus saving our vacation, but she asked lots of questions and I could see afterwards that he was very well cared for. Then she even met me halfway to pick him up, saving me travel time. I’d absolutely book Jordan again if we were in the area! Thanks Jordan !

Yunshu is such a professional! We really appreciated how many pictures and videos she sent of our dog while we were away. We could tell our pup was getting plenty of exercise and going on lots of walks. Her kids were also very well behaved with our dog. Yunshu is prepared to handle dogs that are afraid of thunder or dealing with separation anxiety from their “pet parents.” She was flexible with our timing and made the process of using a new dogsitter so easy for us! Would recommend to other dog owners.

Melissa was great! She was so accomodating to both me and my dog; she was ok with a last-minute booking change, and Casey proved to be a little more challenging for her than we expected. She gave him great accomodations and loving care, and communicated with me throughout his stay. It was my first time boarding any of my pets, and I'm so glad we were able to have Melissa take care of him because it worked out perfectly!! We will definitely contact her for any future boarding needs.

Penny had a great time at Christina’s! She had fun running around the yard and playing with the other dogs. Christina sent some great pictures to us and was very responsive.

We always feel good knowing our boy Roopert is staying with Dana. Dana is on top of things, communicative, and her yard is perfectly set up so our boy can get plenty of off leash playtime. Thanks, as always, for taking such great care of Roopert!

Maddy & her husband are so sweet. They were proactive in caring for our dogs and helped accommodate to our needs, no matter what! Our pups have stayed with them a few times now, and Maddy has consistently made me feel confident that they’re in great hands. She’s great with sending pictures/updates too!!

We really appreciated all the updates about Mowgli over the course of the weekend. We were confident that he was in good hands! Thank you very much for taking such great care of him.
