Yup, It’s True, We Live for Dogs!

Our indoor dog park has been a staple in the Everett, MA community for over 25 years

As one of the first Doggie Daycare facilities on the East coast, our passion for pooches has been waggin’ our tails since 1997! Our 12,000+ square foot facility boasts a 6000 square foot indoor dog park modeled after The Boston Common, 43 luxurious bedrooms, a special play area for younger puppies, a separate training area for one-one-one sessions & classes, and a private area for our Structured Daycare program – click here to learn more.


We are a training-based facility, so all the dogs that come to The Common Dog receive “Enrichment” where we work with every single dog. This is included in your daycare price. Each day we might be focused on encouraging a better group play style, basic commands, holding a stay, agility, leash pulling, basic manners, running on a treadmill or solving puzzles. Providing an environment that truly stimulates each dog helps with anxiety, boredom, manners, learning new skills and more, all of which lead to a better relationship with their owners.
