Honami looked after our two cats and home for 6 days while we went on holiday. I thought Honami was the perfect sitter and guest in our house - she was super fast at communicating, she arrived on time and was really lovely to chat to, we felt instantly at ease knowing we were leaving our cats and house in her safe hands. She sent loads of lovely photos and kept us up to date while we were away. And when we got home the house was spotless. We would absolutely recommend Honami as a sitter and would welcome her back in the future. Thank you Honami!
Lorraine was amazing! She went above and beyond in caring for the house and Pluto. She noticed some extra steps she could take to care for a bug situation in our houseplants, made the bed for us, washed our sheets, and gave our dog an extra walk after we got home very tired from our trip. Those were all things we didn't ask for, but she was perceptive and caring enough to offer what would be most helpful without any prompts from us. Our dog got lots of exercise, love, and adventure. We felt super relaxed knowing he was in Lorraine's care -- more relaxed than we usually feel leaving him. We'd absolutely have Lorraine back anytime :)
We had a fantastic experience with this wonderful couple as our dog sitters. Our dogs were not just well taken care of but also healthy and happy when we returned. They even went the extra mile by giving them pumpkin for tummy aches, showing their attentiveness and care. Their availability was great, and they sent us regular updates, providing peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend!

Giselle is wonderful and took such great care of my pups. I had to extend their stay by one day and there was no issue. I highly recommend her and my dogs will be back! She also sent home the sweetest care package with them.
Giselle and Brian of Canine Comforts did an incredible job taking care of my four-legged friend. Typically, I try to arrange for a friend or family member to stay at my house or drop by a few times per day to take care of my dog when I have to travel. However, unexpected events required me to travel out of state for a few days and my friends/family who normally watch my dog were unavailable. Thus, I was forced to look into dog boarding services. After researching and calling a few different options, I stumbled upon Canine Comforts. Giselle confirmed that they could take my dog the following morning, and provided clear instructions for me to streamline the intake process. A few hours after I dropped off my dog, Canine Comforts sent me a link to a shared Google Photos album, where they added pictures of my dog throughout his stay. It was really nice to see him running and playing with all the other dogs. Canine Comforts was also incredibly accommodating regarding my dog's pick-up schedule. Originally, I had planned to pick him up from Canine Comforts on Sunday, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I was not able to fly back home until the following day. Canine Comforts was willing to extend my dog's stay and hang onto him for an additional day. Thank you, Giselle and Brian, for making an otherwise stressful last-minute travel experience easy and pain-free! My dog loved staying with you, and I certainly plan to utilize your services in the future.
Working with Giselle & Brian was a blessing. She was accommodating to all my needs especially on a last minute notice when my boarder cancelled last minute. I have taken my pups there multiple times for day care and they come home tired and ready for bed every time. Giselle and Brian have been amazing and would recommend them to anyone looking for boarding or day care.
Our pup spent 5 nights with Giselle and Brian while we were out of town and we were thrilled with the care she received! Giselle and Brian are incredibly knowledgeable and truly care about the dogs they care for. We took so much comfort in knowing that our pup was a part of their family, received individual attention and got to play with new friends. Fantastic communication every step of the way - from scheduling a meet and great to pick up after our trip - and the picture updates were appreciated too. Highly recommend, we will be using Giselle and Brian again!
Super convenient to have non-crate boarding IN Vienna! I’ve been taking our dog to Giselle and Brian for over a year and know he’s in good hands. He gets to play with other dogs, be outside and most importantly, is not caged up at night. Rates at excellent if you buy a package!!
Great place. Owners very responsive and truly love all the dogs they have. My puppy just spent three nights with Giselle and Brian and he was well cared for and came home exhausted from all his playing outdoors. Highly recommend Canine Comforts.
My dog has a hard time leaving, when I come to pick him up. Very professionally organized. It's great to have such a dependable service and knowing your little one is well taken care of!
Great with my nervous little rescue! Very professional and accommodating also.
We’re really happy with Giselle and the way she treated our dog!
Absolutely amazing, great with all kinds of dogs, and the sweetest people ever, who actually love ALL dogs.
This is a fantastic self serve dog wash! Very reasonable prices. A raised tub to save your back with sturdy steps for large dogs. Great selection of shampoos and very good water pressure. Fluffy clean towels and an adjustable hand dryer to get your dog dry. I stopped by while traveling with my dog and I wish this was closer to my house. I would use it all the time in the cold weather. They also have a great selection of healthy natural treats in the lobby! Great place and a very good deal.
My dog Kunu has been attending daycare here for years. He loves to go and I love the fact it wears him out. He is a high energy dog that needs the activity and socialization. Plus, they have the best prices on the raw food he requires because of his digestive sensitivity.
LOVE Paws-N-Play! I have been using them for my cat-sitting needs for almost three years now. Every time I come home I have a report card ready for me to read and my cats seem very well attended. They are also very reasonably priced. The last time I left town I forgot to give my kitten his medications and Paws-N-Play was on it! I feel extremely comforted every time I am away due to the good hands of Paws-N-Play. Thank you for everything you all do!
I’m really sorry to have to do this, as I think Jacqui has the very best intentions in mind. We had an unfortunate experience at Paws & Play and after two days of attending we decided to pull our puppy from this daycare. Below is a list of things went wrong. This is not an intention to bash the daycare’s owner or the daycare itself- but for awareness because we were very disappointed. 1. The website states that dogs are separated by size and temperament. Our puppy was about 15 pounds when he started and when we picked him up, he was with the big, big dogs. He seemed okay, albeit timid, until we met a husky on our very first walk post daycare and reacted in fear and aggression. Before the daycare, our dog approached dogs of all sizes with tail wagging. Luckily we have worked hard with him and he is better now. 2. We provided food for our dog to be fed in the middle of the day as he is a puppy and he gets fed 3 times a day. He did not get his meal fed to him, because she/they forgot to feed him. He was starving when he got home. 3. They open at 6:30, which is when my husband showed up our second day. She didn’t come to open the doors until 6:45. Husband missed the train for work. 4. We were asked what type of food we feed our dog. We responded with “core wellness, both dry and wet”. I was completely judged. She responded, “dry food is a complete waste. Processed food, even if you buy the 80 dollar bag”. Then proceeded to tell me about the food they sell there. Clearly trying to sell to me. There are a few other smaller things that turned us off, but these were the major ones. Unfortunate experience because I really wanted to like this place but I do not feel good leaving our dog there.
Love this place! It's so nice for my deaf pup to have a safe way to play off leash and socialize. It's also the best place, by far, to get healthy food/treats for her.
Service was very nice. We washed our blue healer they only have one tub elevated place is very clean
It was ok, we went late like a hour early and they were preparing to close, so the food wasn't fresh at all.
Very good puppy play! My baby had a ball there every time he visited.
Great prices, quality products, friendly staff.
Jacqui is very friendly and helpful
A Thank You to Lauren and the Story of an Ex-Reactive Rescue Dog ✨ Oh, it was such a joy to finally take my favorite rescue dog, Nessa (an 8-year-old Belgian Malinois), home after a month of walks at the shelter. It was exciting because she was our first dog ever. But after just 5 days, we started noticing serious problems: endless barking (I'm not exaggerating when I say 500 times a day), reactivity towards dogs/people/cats/birds, protective behavior, pulling on the leash, restlessness at home, uncontrollable behavior, it felt dangerous... To be honest, after 10 days, we considered bringing her back to the shelter. We felt so incapable and thought someone else could handle it better. This was not at all the dog we had dreamed of. But then came the turning point. We desperately called Lauren, who guided us from A to Z. Thanks to her help, Nessa transformed in just a few weeks into a happy, relaxed dog. I never could have dreamed back then that we would have such a wonderful dog now. She can now walk off-leash, is no longer reactive, has found peace, is super obedient, is starting to trust people, and our bond is stronger than ever. If you are struggling, I want to encourage you and let you know there is hope. Don’t be afraid to ask for help because a good relationship with your dog is worth its weight in gold. Charlotte
Amazing trainer, who knows a lot about dogs!!! It’s been great to learn and see her in action. No doubt, 100% recommended!! 👌 …
We have been using Off Collar for kitty visits for about 18 months and have nothing but good things to say. They are responsive and prompt. Thank you for taking such good care of Patches!!
My wife and I are happy we found Lauren and Off Collar. Our Great Pyrenees was impossible to walk, constantly barking at other dogs. Enter Lauren and within a short period of time, our dog was walking by our side, not barking and listening to commands. What a wonderful trainer and walker. Thank you Lauren, we couldn’t have done it without you!!!
We (and our pets) love Off Collar! Lauren, Katherine, and Alyzah are so sweet with our babies. It is hard to find someone to trust with a Great Dane. They are big animals but also very sensitive and require a gentle but firm touch. Our boy is always so excited to get walked by any of them, and we’re glad to have people we can rely on to give him some company midday. Katherine also takes care of our two kittens when we are away for vacation. They are very shy, but last month, they finally came out to say hi to her, so they must have decided in the end they like her after all :) Off Collar is also very understanding of emergencies and flexible, which is hugely helpful because we have variable schedules each month.
I love Off Collar! Lauren has been amazing in coordinating and supporting my senior pup! Alyzah, my pup’s wonderful walker, is so good with him and keeps me informed if she notices anything out of the ordinary. They’ve both been very …
We are so grateful to the Off Collar team for helping take care of our dog! Sandi, our walker, was always prompt, friendly, and so patient with our dog Ivy, who is sometimes scared and anxious. She sent detailed updates after every walk, …
We’ve had a few 1-1 sessions with Lauren to help with our reactive dog, Chloe, as well as monthly pack walks. She has been nothing short of phenomenal and has helped us so much! She taught us the skills and tools to help work with Chloe and …
I cannot say enough about how awesome Lauren is! She helped me and my dog work through some behavioral issues recently. I was at my wits end with him and had read/watched everything I could find and nothing seemed to be making a difference. …
Lauren has been great with Karma (dog) and his parents (us). We are learning a lot in such a short amount of time and have already seen a positive difference.
