Lisa & Daniel were fantastic and left my house spotlessly clean! I very much appreciate them and my kitties loved them! It made a huge difference having house and pet sitters as my kitties were noticeably happy when I got home and not mad at me for being gone. Welcome anytime!
Well prepared and good location. The cats are lovely but take a bit of time to get used to you. Don't be surprised if Clancy disappears and hides under the bed to begin with. Both cats love to be petted and groomed and are easy to look after. Sahara takes her meds well, and Lynette will leave detailed instructions on their supplements that are easy to follow. The house and location are great, with an easy walk into town or a short drive into the forest, mountains, or to see waterfalls. Lynetye and Dave leave detailed recommendations on places to eat out, but also plenty of space if you want to eat in. The TV is easy to use and set up for you to use your own subscriptions or mirror from your own devices easily. I thoroughly enjoyed my time and am sure you will too. Thanks for letting me fill up my cat cuddles Sahara and Clancy,. Thanks for having me Dave and Lynette
Liz was pleasure to sit for. Even this was very short sit for me, I enjoyed the kitties and your lovely apartment. I would be happy to come again for longer stay or when our dates match for short stay. Lovely sit, kitties and location 🤗
Rhonda was very friendly and kind. Her dogs, Daisy and Maya are extremely charming, loving and playful. Her cat Brumble was also adorable and very independent. Great place to pet sit, quiet area and close to all amenities and transport. Highly recommended.
Craig and I had the pleasure of spending a week in Mia's very comfortable home whilst looking after the 3 egg-laying chooks, 2 wonderful dogs and Hey Hoe the outside cat. From the moment of first contact, we found Mia to be open, thoughtful and generous. We enjoyed our stay very much and would happily revisit Boxgrove if the opportunity arises and we can organise a car to explore the area more fully. Thank you, once again, Mia and Chris for opening your home to us.
I had such a great time visiting Tucson and hanging out with Bell, Jackson, and Noodle! Lisa's place is very nice and comfortable with lots of natural light and a beautiful outdoor patio filled with plants. It's also practically right on the Rillito bike path and just a short walk to coffee (get a cold brew at Ren Coffeehouse!), restaurants, and Trader Joe's. Bell and Jackson are SUPER sweet and very low maintenance and so loveable. Bell can be quite strong on the leash, so having some experience with walking strong dogs would be helpful. But other than that, they're easy to care for and really sweet! And Noodle, the cat... Well, I wanted to pack her up and take her with me. She's so cuddly and adorable. If you have a chance to do this housesit, I highly recommend it!
Mochi, Juno, and Bane are absolute sweethearts. We had a great time taking care of them. Abby and Kyle gave us great intro and instructions about all their animals as well as the apartment. The place is cute, cozy, and filled with love.

Sarah took great care of my two cats while I was out of town. I will definitely hire her again in the future. I love that she sent a daily update with photos!
Sarah is just amazing! She is responsive and responsible. We have a house full of pets, some with special needs and require meds. Our pets love her, and have been well taken care of each time we've been away. Recommend 100%!
My dogs love Sarah! Sarah has stayed at our house several times to take care of my two active dogs, sometimes for as long as a week. Sarah is great about being in touch every day, asking any questions she has, and sharing photos and updates while we are gone. She has great attention to detail and follows my overly-detailed instructions exactly. Most importantly, I know she gives my dogs plenty of attention and love, and they are very happy when we get home!
Sarah cared for our 6 cats over the thanksgiving holiday. Two of them needed meds and she treated them with care and compassion. She sent us photos and kept us updated while we were gone. Sarah is a true animal lover and handled our kitties as if they were her own. We would definitely use her services again.
Sarah was absolutely professional, dependable, and so very caring with our pets! She treated our family pets just as we would, and they were very well taken care of while we were away. It was a total pleasure working with Sarah and we will definitely be using her services again.
Sarah was extremely accomodating and did a great job of taking care of our dog, Mikey, during our wedding.We could tell right away that he was in good hands. When it started raining she immediately took Mikey home with her, helped calm his nerves, and brought him back when the weather let up. We highly recommend Sarah and her services!
Sarah from sensational pet care is amazing! She took such great care of our two pups while we were away. We got regular updates on how they were doing. Very responsive, reliable, and professional! We will be using this service regularly and our pups are so happy.
Sarah is friendly, and took great care of our 4 cats. Our original pet sitter closed due to COVID, so we used Sarah for the first time. Some pet sitters "phone it in" and do the bare minimum, but Sarah really cares about the animals. She sent us updates after each visit and sometimes pictures too. She included small activities to make the house look lived in, like getting the mail and putting the trash bins out. During this challenging time of COVID, Sarah took extra steps to ensure everyone's safety, like wearing a mask in our home and sanitizing touchpoints on her last visit. I would recommend Sensational Pet Care to anyone who needs pet sitting services at a reasonable cost.
Sarah from Sensational Pet Care is fantastic! She's kind and thoughtful and is great with our two cats who no longer get along, and are in separate quarters. Sarah developed a calm and trusting relationship with my girls very quickly. She not only cares for our pets but, cares for our home and plants too! We always choose Sensational Pet Care when we go away!
I highly recommend Sensational Pet Care. I have used Sarah’s pet care services on many occasions to care for my two cats and two guinea pigs. The care and attention she gives is exceptional. Having Sensational Pet Care by Sarah provides me with total peace of mind when I’m away. In addition to pet care she also takes care of other details like mail, lights etc. Sensational Pet Care by Sarah is 100% reliable, dependable and trustworthy.
This is an amazing place for my dog to go socialize and burn some energy! As a puppy, she was attacked on a walk by a larger dog and we were worried it would take a lot of time and patience for her to adjust to being with other dogs in a productive setting. The team at Dizzy’s was so amazing, giving us tips on how to work on the issue outside of day care, and being conscientious of the situation while my dog was there. As a puppy, and a working breed, she has boundless energy, and we all feel better after a day of her getting to run around with other dogs. Since starting care she has become better at listening to commands and knowing when it is play time and when it is work time. The price is more than fair for the value we’ve received!!
Dizzy's is great! The place has been a godsend for my family's very energetic 1 year old pup. Our doggie has fallen in love with the staff, is desperate to get out to the door to them every morning and comes home exhausted every night. I could not recommend Dizzy's more highly!
My dog Waffles started at Dizzy's at 6 months.I always felt although he was a little guy he was so happy going to see all his friends! He would go in bark to let everyone know he was there! The staff is caring and wonderful! This is a clean well led daycare! Waffles misses you all!
Our 2 year old lab mix pup, Biscuit, attends a weekly play group at Dizzys and we have also used the pet care staff for at home pet care. The setting for the day care is clean with plenty of room inside and out for loads of exercise. We can check in on our pup during her playgroup with pictures posted on their FB page each day. Biscuit is obviously happy to greet the staff when we arrive and usually falls asleep on the way home. There are celebrations, holidays and parties offered with doggie games and activities provided. When the yard is wet Biscuit gets cleaned up before pick up and now a full pet spa service is offered on site by a well known pet groomer. My communication with the owner and staff at Dizzys Doggie Daycare is professional in person and always responded to in a timely manner via email. The service is excellent, the staff are flexible for pick up and drop off within in their hours of operation and the payment packages are a very good value. We are happy to have Dizzys Doggie Daycare in our area!
A very excellent place where dogs are able to release their energy during the day and enjoy their time there. Any pet parent should feel at ease knowing their furry friend has a safe place to play during the day. The owner is very attentive and caring. If you are looking for a doggie daycare this is the place to go!
Been bringing my dog there weekly for over three years. Staff is amazing and prices are great. They take great pride in caring for my Charlie and he is always so so excited to go there, I can’t open the door fast enough when I drop him off. They even do events! Can’t say enough good things about them!
We’ve been with Dizzy Pets since the day we brought Petey home from the shelter over 4 years ago! We’ve used the daycare, daily walks and dog sitting services when we go on vacation. We’ve had nothing but great experiences with Jayme and her dedicated team. Petey has a blast every week at daycare.
Jayme, Josh and numerous members of their qualified staff have been coming to our house for years to exercise our dogs when we're not around. I'm sure we are among Jayme and Josh's most demanding clients. Through no fault of our own we are a pain in the rear end. We have three dogs that all have their individual personalities and requirements. We live out in the middle of nowhere on the way to nothing. We need Jayme and Josh's help often, but not on a regular schedule. Dizzy's service really has been top notch. There is the potential for LOTS to go wrong in this business and thanks to Jayme and Josh's positive attitude, professional practices, ambition to make their business a success and overall kind, concerned and conscientious energy we are VERY satisfied customers and will gladly recommend them to anyone.
Love Dizzy's Doggie Day Care. The dogs are always tired when they come home which is always a good sign that they had fun. Keep up the good work
Great place to bring your pups! Amazing staff. Your pup will leave exhausted yet happy from a day full of play, enrichment and socialization.
My husband and I live in NYC and this was our first time boarding our dog after a cross country move. Mark & Kate did an amazing job answering our questions, sending us photos and updates, and really just loving on our golden retriever, Penny. We had no issues with pick up or drop off in the city and that was SO convenient for us. Our dog LOVED her time in the Hudson Valley-she was on her own vacation and living her best life. We knew that Penny was safe, healthy, and having the best time with her new friends. I would absolutely recommend Stonehouse Dog Sitting to anyone-we will be using them again in the future.
Dean absolutely thrived in the care of Stonehouse. Their personalized attention and daily adventures made Dean feel right at home. We appreciated the genuine love they showed our furry friend, and knowing that Dean spent his time with the pack in a cozy home environment was truly reassuring. A big thank you to this wonderful couple, Mark & Kate for taking such excellent care of Dean – we'll undoubtedly trust them with his care in the future!
We stumbled upon Stone House and are so glad we did! Living in NYC, we wanted to find the best option for our happy, active 2-year old dog and this place is it! Kate and Mark are the kindest and even provide adorable updates (with photos!) on the different adventures of the dogs upstate. It’s a vacation home away from home for our dog, and we’re so excited for him to go back and see all his friends again!! He came home a happy and loved dog! Thank you to Kate and Marc!!
My pup Dolly had an excellent time at Stone House! Their rates are on par with some dog sitters in Manhattan, but the dogs get a much richer experience at Stone House—more of a vacation. There are many doggie camps in the NYC suburbs, but most are large operations where the dogs stay in kennels. Mark and Kate are amazing and treat the dogs as their own. Their home is a storybook perfect getaway—so cozy and surrounded by nature. In every picture update they sent of Dolly, she had a huge grin on her face. She’ll definitely be back!
Our experience with the Stonehouse team (Kate and Mark) couldn’t have gone better. We had been looking for a safe / fun place for our dog to stay while away for 9-days and we’re so grateful Stonehouse had availability. Kate and Mark make sure your dog feels at home and will be a good fit with the other dogs staying on the property for the duration of your dog’s stay. They send updates, photos and guarantee plenty of activity and love. Thanks so much to Stonehouse - we’ll absolutely be back for all future dog sitting needs!
We were looking to board our dog Georgie for a few weeks, and we were having trouble finding the perfect, comfortable place for him. I stumbled upon Stonehouse through a random internet search. We went for a meet and greet and immediately knew we found the perfect place. Georgie was comfortable from the second he stepped into Mark and Kate's home. They took such good care of him - taking him on walks, fabulous hikes, and adventures - we were afraid he wouldn't want to come back home! This was Georgie's first stay with Mark and Kate, and it certainly won't be his last. Thank you both so much for treating Georgie like your own.
Our Bernese Mountain Dog Hera stayed over Christmas at Stonehouse and could not have spent a better time anywhere else! Mark and Kate are wonderful people who truly enjoy their time with the dogs they host and have so many lovely stories to share. The pick-up in Brooklyn was great and we got a text message after they arrived safely at the Stonehouse. We received regular updates over the 2 weeks Hera stayed there and she even got to see some mountains to play in the snow (very important for a Swiss Mountain Dog ;)). We cam recommend the Stonehouse without any hesitation and could not think of a better place for Hera if we are out of town.
It is wonderful to know our dog is so well loved and looked after when we are out of town. He loves his daily hikes and playing with the other dogs. Mark and Kate are attentive and keep us updated with pictures and texts throughout our dogs stay.
Stonehouse, Kate, and Mark are amazing! They took care of our dog, Finley, while we were out of the country for a week. We are first time dog parents so you can imagine how nervous we were about leaving him behind. He had such an amazing time at their beautiful property. Mark was always sending us updates and great pics while we were away. They made it super easy on us by driving down to NYC to pick him up. Such a huge relief knowing he was in great hands! We are excited for our next trip and know Finley is as well because he’ll get to be with Mark and Kate!
Mark and Kate took absolutely incredible care of our sweet mini schnauzer. We had never left her for that length of time and were anxious as to how she would do. She had a blast and Mark was so sweet to send us frequent updates and near professional photos of her playing with the other pups. We can’t wait to go on our next trip knowing she gets a vacation with Mark and Kate as well.

Literally wouldn’t trust anyone else with our pups! Courtney takes care of our dogs as if they were her own and they absolutely LOVE going to stay. When we drop them off they go off and play and could care less about us as we’re leaving. …
