Lisa is amazing in every way! She will love your dog like it's her own! Best pet sitter and you will get lots of pics and updates about your fur baby while you are gone. We had a nightmare of an experience with another boarding facility and sadly our dog didn't survive, so understandably we have been hesitant to every trust anyone again with our other pets but Lisa would never neglect a doggy or leave them outside all night. She's truly an angel and we recommend her to everyone. You can't go wrong with Newbury Bark, just be sure to book early because they fill up quickly. read more

Lisa and Anton are wonderful. My puppy Finley just got his vaccinations completed and was in doggy day care for the first time with Newbury Bark. We had a meet and greet the week prior to ensure he'd get along with the other animals. Yesterday we picked him up from Lisa and Anton after a full day of care. We had received numerous pictures, videos, and updates to put our minds at ease. He was so relaxed and happy. They were so affectionate to him and the other dogs. I'm so grateful to have found them through their excellent reviews. I will be using Newbury Bark for all my doggy daycare and boarding needs. read more

I wish I could leave 15 stars if I could. Lisa and Bob are the best pet sitters that you could ever hope to have. It's not always easy finding a place that's comfortable for my dog Snowy who is 13 years old, but I never have to worry when I leave Snowy here. They have a wonderful house with a lot of room to go outside and furniture to nap on. Snowy also always makes friends with the other doggies thanks to the level of comfort and care they receive here at Newbury Bark. Lisa and Bob are always keeping me updated with how Snowy is doing and always send the cutest pictures for proof! I wouldn't even think about taking my dog anywhere else because this is the best place I've ever found. If you want a place you can be assured your pet is going to be safe, loved, and be happy, look no further! I can't say enough nice things about Newbury Bark!!! read more

Ever since my husband and I moved to San Diego, it's been nothing but a long string of mediocre/bad dog-sitters for our dog Chewy. He's a special pup, and he requires a sitter who'll give him constant love and companionship due to his ongoing separation anxiety. Lisa and Anton of Newbury Bark are always up for the challenge! You can tell by the way a dog runs up the stairs and leaps into a person's arms that he'll be in good hands. Chewy does this every single time he sees Lisa and Anton, which is why, whenever we take extended trips out of town, we go out of our way to drop him off. No one is as experienced or professional as Newbury Bark is when it comes to your pup. Rest assured, your pup will be so loved and well-cared for. If they can please me, they can please anyone! Also, they're super cool people. We consider them our second family and love catching up whenever we're in town. Thank you so much, Lisa and Anton! We love ya! read more

Had our pups there for 15 days and they loved it! They came home happy and tired! Would and will be returning for additional stays!

This one is no longer accepting new dogs. I've called several times. Too bad, sounds like a nice business.

OMG..where do I begin. These two are the best dog sitters in the world. They have been watching my little guy for about 2 years now. We travel once a month for 4-5 days and we always leave Joey with them. They are loving and kind and all the dogs are having a ball when they are with them. They make sure that each and every dog is happy and having a good time. As soon as we start packing for a trip, our guy knows he is going to Lisa and Anton and gets super excited. Goes and gets his "stuff" ready. I can tell how excited and happy he is to be going there by the way he acts the moment we start up her street. I cannot say enough good things about these two people. They are like family now...Auntie Lisa and Uncle Anton. read more

Not sure if they are still in business or not. Their website says to either email Lisa or text/call at a telephone number. I had emailed first, requesting an introductory meeting to ensure my dog was a proper match. Due to lack of response, I texted the number on their website after a couple of days to same result-no response. Yesterday, in the early afternoon, I left a message on their voicemail that had a generic-not a business-greeting, requesting a call, but I haven't heard back from them. read more

This is a little over due. While I was in the process of selling my TO town home, I wanted to find a doggy daycare/daycamp for Jax (my 1 year old husky/pomeranian mix.) I saw the excellent reviews on Yelp for this place so I decided to try it. Soooo happy I did. Before Lisa accepts your canine, she does an interview to see if your dog will get along with other dogs. Excellent idea! She gets detailed information regarding vaccinations/neuter/spay. Excellent idea! Lisa has two daycare locations close to each other (one for smaller dogs and one for larger dogs.) While Jax is only 28 pounds, he acts like he is a 75 pound big dog. Lisa felt it was best Jax joined the large dog club which was great! First day at daycare, I dropped off Jax and returned to my car tearing up a little bit. WHAT?! I guess dogs are your kids! Anywhooooo.......Jax loved it! He could not get enough of this place. Bob is in charge of the large dog club and he is absolutely awesome! Bob plays with them, takes short video clips and texts the videos to the parents. I would drop off Jax every morning and Bob could not open the door fast enough. Even when it rains, they have fixed up the garage just for the dogs. Outside, there is a pool, slide leading up to an enclosed trampoline, and a running area. It is truly a dog's paradise! Although we recently moved, we will ALWAYS remember Newbury Bark with Bob and Lisa! and of course Terri Jo! :) Thank you kindly for taking excellent care of Jax. I know Jax misses everyone! So if you are looking for an excellent doggie daycare/daycamp, look no further, try Newbury Bark. Fair and reasonable prices, very accommodating. I still watch the videos! :) read more

Leaving your pup with Newbery Bark is like leaving him with family! Their backyard is literally a puppy PARADISE with slides and a little house covered in turf. There's a pool for pups that like to swim and separate pens for big and small dogs in case they need to be separated! What's amazing is all the love they show to your pup the moment they meet them! My little son was immediately comfortable and very happy. read more

We adopted a sweet puppy from Shelter Hope just over a month ago and ever since I rescued her, she will not let me out of her sight. While appreciating her protectiveness and keen observance skills, we noticed that she was very very sad being crated for 3-4 hours when we were out working. We knew she didn't hate the crate as she happily went in every night to sleep. I also didn't want our neighbors to have to hear her cry every morning so off to yelp I went in hopes of finding some kind of day care for her. It's been 3 days now and I will tell ya- there is a 100% difference that her being around other pups and getting love from Lisa and Anton. They are amazing people who genuinely care about every pup they care for and love each one like their own. Our little one Harlow loves going to day care and she loves Lisa and Anton dearly. By the time she comes home, she's wiped out and the sweetest love. Lisa and Anton are flexible, reliable, and life savers. We are so happy that our paths crossed and I know that Harlow is better off with them caring for her while we are working. Thanks for all you do Lisa and Anton!! read more

Our dogs love this place! Lisa and Bob are so good to all the dogs there. They actually play with the dogs, not just watch over them. Nicest people ever too. We've been taking them twice a week for almost 2 years, and they always come home happy and pleasantly tired. A tired dog is a happy dog =) read more

Newbury Bark Is very friendly and professional. Our pug is always happy to go there. They are trustworthy and we are lucky to have them in the neighborhood. I highly recommend them and give them a five out of five stars and would give six stars if possible!! read more

Newbury Bark is the most loving place to leave your dog overnight or for daycare. We had to leave our deaf French Bulldog puppy twice now and I felt completely reassured that she was taken care of with the best love and care. We received pictures and videos everyday. The only hard part was that I'm not sure she wanted to come home!!! This is a place that you can completely trust and I am so grateful! read more

What about Bob? LOL Newbury Bark has 2 locations; one with Lisa & the 2nd location is run by Bob. I never made it over to Lisa's place, but I've been interviewing and visiting dog sitting locations for the last month & was so excited to find Newbury Bark, specifically Bob's place. The entire house & backyard is set up exclusively for the dogs! Complete with trampoline, plenty of space to run around, shaded areas, & a fenced pool. But, what really sold me & my husband was Bob's love for the dogs. He knows each of them and all their quirks...who prefers to be alone or just be around a few dogs at a time...who can get over excited and needs a time out now and again...who is the "old man" in the group and helps new dogs adjust. Our 5month old pup was overwhelmed at first, but Bob knew exactly who to pair him up with, so he could learn the "ropes" and fit into the pack. It's a big deal for us to know that we can leave our pup & he'll be safe and cared for...Newbury Bark has that down! Thanks from Bodie & his family :-) read more

We have been talking our precious dog to Newbury Bark since mid 2013, when we take long weekends or vacations. They take great care of her and treat her like she is part of the family. Thank You Newbury Bark! read more

Newbury Bark - Our baby is well taken care of. - Pet Sitting Near Me

My pug Lucy stayed with Lisa for a little over a week. Lisa loves the fur babies she watches and they love her! She sent me pictures and videos all week and I never had a worry about leaving my baby. This is by far one of the best experiences I had leaving her and I will recommend newbury bark to anyone who loves and cares about their fur baby while they are away!!! Thank you Lisa!!! Xoxo Lucy and Sharen read more

Couldn't be happier that I found Lisa and Bob! Their place is a complete doggie playground outside with a cozy napping area inside. They take the best care of the dogs and give them lots of love and attention. I bring Amber to help her with socialization and she is making great progress! read more

We rescued our cattle dog mix in June 2016. We wanted to crate train him but very quickly it became apparent that he suffered from separation anxiety, although some would call it sheer panic!!! My mom use to watch Jackson until we moved to thousand Oaks. Jackson was going to a reputable daycare that came highly recommended. Everything was great. All we ever heard was how much they loved our dog and thought we was wonderful. Then 3 months into his time at this daycare, when my husband went to pick him up, he was told Jackson was kicked out. My husband text me while at work, "Jackson was kicked out of daycare, he can't come back." I called my husband thinking the worst...he tried to bite a human, he got in a fight with another dog....what was so bad that Jackson could no longer return to daycare? When I finally talked to my husband, I asked him "what happened?"My husband tells me " He jumped over a wall." "WHAT????" My husband said again, "He jumped over a wall and was in an area (still within the daycare) that he wasn't suppose to be in. He can't come back!" This was on a Monday. I was devastated, this was a great place that came highly recommended and now, just like that, our sweet Jackson was kicked out for jumping. My husband was able to work from home so that Jackie could be with him. Now my job was to find a daycare to replace the last daycare. A few days later I called Lisa in tears. "My dog is a sweet dog, everyone loves him but he got kicked out of daycare." I admitted. When I told Lisa why he was kicked out, (I will never forget her response), "Why was the wall short enough for him to jump over, especially if they knew he was a jumper?" Right then and there I knew I wanted Jackson at Newbury Bark. Newbury Bark requires an evaluation, to make sure your dog will be cohesive with the existing pack. Jackson has been a part of this amazing pack for 3 months now. Bob and Lisa welcome each dog into their pack as if they were their own. This daycare doesn't even feel like a daycare. It feels more like you are leaving your dog at home with constant supervision. With updates everyday, including video and pictures, I never wonder or worry about Jackie. Lisa and Bob are the best at their jobs, some days I feel like Jackson would rather stay at daycare than come home! Words will never be enough to express how grateful we are for such an amazing dog paradise as Newbury Bark!!!! read more

I am so glad I found Lisa and Anton! I've never met anyone else who LOVE dogs so so so much! My husband and I always take our dogs Teddy and Miso there whenever we need to travel for work or family. Both Lisa and Anton take a good care of them and doggies always have a great time there! Newbury Bark is truly a doggy paradise - doggies get to run around, play with each other, and get a great care during the stay! Thanks Newbury Bark! read more

I am SO grateful to have discovered Newbury Bark. Lisa and Anton are amazing and were so loving with our two small dogs. Lisa was quick to provide updates and videos of our dogs when we were missing them during vacation. I've now got peace of mind knowing that our furry family have an excellent place to stay when they can't travel with us. Highly recommended! read more

We are very happy for the wonderful care and love that Lisa and Anton provided for our puppy Dion at their home while we were away. This was the 1st time our puppy is away from home for 5 days and he had a great time socializing with other dogs in their care! Lisa provide video updates and peace of mind that our puppy was well taken care of. Highly recommend. read more

Finding good dog boarding through trial and error is the worst. I used to dread going on trips because I had to board our little one, Maximus. He would shiver with fear when we took him to a boarding facility and I felt horrible the whole time I was away. Then I found Newbury Bark. The owners, Lisa and Anton, are the ultimate dog lovers. Maximus is so happy and excited to stay with them. He can't get out of the car and to their front door fast enough! Now I don't have to worry about him one bit when I'm traveling. Peace of mind. Ahhhhhhhhhh read more

I am so grateful that we found Newbury Bark to care for our sweet shepherd girl Shaman. Lisa and Bob really love what they do and Shaman cannot wait to go inside and play with her furriends. They have a trampoline, pool for pups who swim, obstacles, play sets and more. The house/yard has been transformed into a pup paradise! I also love that they text me videos of Shaman playing and even swimming! Thanks Lisa and Bob--you truly make this neurotic mom feel at peace every time I drop my baby. read more

Leaving our dog with Lisa, Anton, and Bob gives me such peace of mind. I know that Zoey will be playing and socializing with other dogs in a home where she has room to run and that isn't packed full of dogs, so she can enjoy herself instead of being stressed. They all give such great attention to the dogs, and it's obvious that they really love what they do. I'm so relieved to have found Newbury Bark! read more

Lisa and Anton are amazing! They've watched our shiba inu for several weeks while we travel throughout the year...it was the best choice I ever made. There were other places to board our dog such as the doggy hotel in Westlake or other boarding facilities, but this was the best. Dogs are socialized and made to feel at home. And, it's not like dogs get dumped off and ignored, Lisa and Anton are proactive and engaging with the dogs and the owners. They always tell me stories of funny events or activities our dog experienced , or how our dog curled up in bed with them. It's soooo cute! It feels like our own family taking care of our precious loved one when we are away traveling. And while we are traveling, I'm sent video and pictures of our dog playing and having a great time! I never have to worry about the quality of care our dog is receiving. I would highly recommend using this service. You will not regret it! read more

The best daycare we brought our pooch to. And we do so every week for the last 2 years!

After acquiring a new addition to our pack it was time to find a new sitter able to care for larger dogs. Lisa and Anton were amazing, Had a meet and greet and it was obvious they love what they do and our 3 dogs were comfortable too. No size too big or small. Lisa is flexible and offers great rates, our furbabies enjoyed their stay and we are so happy to have found a family nearby who treats others like their own. read more

We just picked up our 3 dogs from Lisa after spending the weekend with her. They had a wonderful time, from the videos and pictures that Lisa provided during their stay. Lisa was very easy to work with and schedule their stay. We can tell that Lisa loves what she does and we are very glad to have found her. I would highly refer LIsa and her brother Bob. read more

Our dog pouts for several days after spending time with Anton and Lisa. They are the best! Good knowing he is in loving hands when we leave Buster (Yorkie) with them. He always scrambles to get to their door! read more

A long overdue 5 star review here! Wonderful people, who helped us out by taking our dog at a moments notice. She'd had a stressful time traveling across country when we relocated. We then found ourselves suddenly stuck without dog friendly accommodation. Thank goodness we found this place. Our dog had a wonderful time and came home her old happy self. In fact, I wondered if she'd even want to come home after the fun she had there! I received lots of pictures and video of her playing with her new dog friends, and when we picked her up she got a special farewell visit from her human carer who had bonded with her so sweetly. Highly recommended for dogs who enjoy being with other dogs. They live and sleep in the house and play in the yard all day, and they even have a fenced pool for dogs who enjoy water. Can't think of a better place for our dog! read more

A big, big thank you to Lisa G and Anton for making Tristan a part of their life and family for the last few days. We just picked him up and it was clear to me that he was just as comfortable as could be; I could tell that they had really gotten to know our little guy in just a short few days. We got lots of the cutest pictures imaginable (and even some live action video!) while we were away. I felt so comfortable with their home and set up after our meet n' greet and drop off that I felt at ease on our vacation. Which is just what you want, right?!? The pictures, video and comments about his antics during his stay just helped to further set my mind at rest that Tristan was enjoying his vacation as well. He made friends, both two- and four-legged, got to play, got cuddles, and even had some pool time. Lisa G/Newbury Bark has been very professional and kind in all our our dealings. 5 stars!

We had recently moved to town and needed a place for our dog to be while we were at the hospital having our first baby. Lisa and Newbury Bark were the best! We scheduled a meet and greet with her and could immediately tell our dog was going to be comfortable and cared for by people who have a gift for animals. The space in their backyard was under renovation with dogs in mind. We loved that our dog was out and playing with other dogs, under supervision and in smaller numbers instead of being locked in a cage all day. Not to mention the competitive rates! However, beyond the excellent care for our dog, was the stellar customer service we got. Lisa was flexible with our schedule, even willing to get a call in the middle of the night if we needed to go to the hospital. When we dropped Willow (our dog) off, Lisa had the great idea of one last family photo with the dog before the baby came. We got regular pictures and updates about our dog as well. To top it all off, when we picked Willow up there was a card and a gift for the new baby from the dog (obviously arranged and purchased by Lisa)! To us, that is way beyond the call of duty. Thank you Newbury Bark for being affordable and providing excellent care and customer service! read more

Lisa and Anton are the best. We take our dog Abbey over there every time we go out of town and they absolutely love her. They send us tons of pictures and videos showing how much fun she's having and how well taken care of she is. Very down to Earth people that you can tell truly love animals. We'll be using their services every time we need a sitter for our dog for sure. read more
