My pup loves attending the Puppy Enrichment program at this facility. The ladies there are some of his best 2 legged friends. They take great effort in learning as much as possible about your 4 legged best friend so they get the most possible out of their time there.

I'm creeping up on one year using Animal Care Center of NH and I am impressed. This isn't just doggie daycare - their enrichment classes are designed to stimulate minds, build bodies and reinforce desirable behaviors. I've used a few other daycares and my gripe was that they would send me home with a report card for undesirable behaviors that I can't address at home because I can't recreate the circumstances that elicited them.
They worked with my dog to create and reinforce better habits. I also love their boarding and pet-sitting services. My dog gets to board in a familiar place with familiar people and with minimal disruption to her routine. That's a big deal. I agree that the paperwork to register seems overwhelming, but it meant that they had relevant details for when I was out of town and not easily available to answer questions. I highly recommend ACC of NH!

On the more expensive side, but they give you a lot for the money. There are tons of options to upgrade too, so if you want to pamper your pooch, you definitely can.

I brought my energetic young Jack Russell Terrier to Animal Care Center after we had negative experiences at other doggy daycares (she did not do well in a chaotic large group environment). I was worried that my dog would not be able to attend doggy daycare but she has absolutely thrived at Animal Care Center! The dogs are truly part of a big family and receive personalized attention and care throughout the day. I highly recommend Animal Care Center - it is the best daycare service in the area hands down.

Our puppy was one of the first to join the newly opened center. I was amazed at the inside and yard area for play. Clean, modern, beautiful spot for our border collie. I was pleased with the knowledge and professionalism I seen in the staff.and felt 100% comfortable leaving her in thier care. As the clientele grew this past year, I still felt like my dog got as much attention as in the begining. I highly recomend.

We have been using this service for a few years. Every experience has been exactly as expected. Our dogs love seeing out pet sitter and communication with the office is ideal. We would highly recommend. Great to deal with.
