Doggy Daycare in Boston

A real home for your dog while you are at work

Boston work days are long, brownstones and triple-deckers can feel small for an active dog, and winter limits outdoor time. In-home doggy daycare on Petme connects you with verified sitters across Back Bay, South End, Jamaica Plain, Cambridge, and Somerville so your dog gets a calm home base with neighborhood walks at Boston Common or Jamaica Pond instead of crated isolation.

Petme charges Boston pet owners 0% commission. The daily rate is the full price. Cashback compounds with each completed day. Every booking includes up to $22,000 through the Protection Plan, useful coverage if your dog ever needs Angell Animal Medical Center or VCA South Shore during a day of care.

FAQ

Common questions about doggy daycare in Boston

How much does doggy daycare cost in Boston?

Boston in-home daycare typically runs $38 to $70 per day. Back Bay, Beacon Hill, and Cambridge sit on the higher end; Allston, East Boston, and outer JP usually run lower. Petme charges 0% owner commission.

How do Boston sitters handle winter daycare?

Experienced Boston sitters use booties and paw balm during salted-sidewalk season, watch for windchill, and shift to indoor enrichment on the coldest days. Most Boston dog owners and sitters are deeply comfortable with winter routines.

Are there daycare sitters near Boston Common, the Esplanade, or Jamaica Pond?

Yes. Many Petme Boston sitters live walking distance from the Boston Common, Public Garden, Esplanade, Jamaica Pond, and Arnold Arboretum, all popular spots for daycare-day walks.

Do Boston sitters accept apartment, triple-decker, or brownstone dogs?

Yes. Boston is overwhelmingly multi-family and most sitters live in apartments or triple-deckers themselves. Stair access, shared building entries, and street-only outdoor time are entirely familiar.

Can I book recurring weekly daycare in Boston?

Yes. Most Boston sitters accept recurring weekly bookings at a discounted rate. Lock in two to five days a week with the same sitter for a consistent routine.
