Best of Boston

2003 Best Pet Care

Doggieday

Need someone to look after your critters? While you’re away, DoggieDay will walk Spot four times a day, clean Fifi’s litter box, grab your mail, water your plants, inject your diabetic gerbil with insulin, and taxi Dirk the boa constrictor to the vet—all for a competitive fee. Unlike most services, DoggieDay covers almost all of Greater Boston, and is registered with Pet Sitters International. Future services in the works include dog training at home while you’re at work and massage therapy (for your pets, not you).
