Our experience with Angela and Robert was great! They’re kind, considerate and reliable. They went out of their way to accommodate the stay despite an injury and we couldn’t thank them enough for doing so. They made sure Mochi was too priority and genuinely loved her!
So my first time to use Trusted Petsitters & I hit the jackpot with Renee!!! She loves my Brodie doggie which is the most important thing, but she is also reliable, great communication, trustworthy, sent daily pics & my house was immaculate when I returned after 1 week away. Very pleased overall & I could tell my baby boy Brodie dog was calm & happy while she was here! I am going to send her new dates for another visit soon!

I absolutely love these ladies!! They have always taken the best care of my baby when I have been away for long trips or just a one walk stop in because I was running late from work. I highly recommend them. Oh and they take best photos
Purrfect Pet Companion has been amazing with our dog Gunner. He looks forward to his walks and loves his time with the team. Scheduling is very easy and the team is very responsive. My favorite part is getting a report after each visit that includes details of the visit and pictures! We are lucky to have such a great service for our family.
Laura took the best care of my cats and my dog! She is reliable and thorough and my pets all loved her visits. I had cats getting medications which wasn’t an issue. I never had to worry about them when I was away, and using the Time to Pet app was great for updates and pictures. I 100% recommend her services and I would still be using her if I wasn’t moving a couple of hours away.
My Luna who will be 3 years old in July 2022 is a pit:lab mix. Luna went to doggie daycare the first half of her life. Everything was fine until she was involved in an altercation with another dog and was bit. After that incident, Luna became very anxious around other dogs, so we pulled her out of daycare and searched for an alternative for Luna to be taken care of during the day while my family and I are at work and school. I was so fortunate to find Laura and PURRfect Pet Companion. They are the perfect pet companions who take care of Luna and spoil her the same way my family would if we could stay home with her. If you love your dog as much as we love our pup, you will be so happy with PURRfect Pet Companions caring for your four legged family member. Annie, in particular is Luna’s #1 companion who comes to see her everyday. I don’t know who loves who more. Luna gets so excited when Annie visits. There is nothing more reassuring than knowing your pet is adored by another the same way you adore your pet. Thank you Annie and PURRfect Pet Companions for loving Luna! 🐾
Purrfect Pet Companion is the only service I trust to watch my fur babies, Bentley (golden retriever) and Cali (cat). They are reliable, responsive, and very sweet! Not to mention that it makes Bentley’s day whenever he sees them! I know that I can leave for as short or as long as I need to and my babies will be not only well looked after but also having a lot of fun, cuddles, and treats. 11/10 recommend!!
I have been using PURRfect Pet Companion for about a year now and am beyond satisfied with how well they take care of my big, goofy boy, Pretzel. He is always so excited when they come and each one of his walkers handles him beautifully. They often make time to say hello to the feline housemates as well when they visit. I love getting notes and pictures. They even took care of the cats when Pretzel joined us for a getaway and did a fantastic job, especially with all the food and med demands. They're so accommodating with schedule changes as well, which is so helpful. I trust Laura and her crew implicitly with the care of my pets. I'm so lucky I found them when moving to the area last year. I can't recommend them enough to anyone in their service area. You won't be disappointed!
We have been using PURRfect Pet for about 5 years now. They have provided outstanding loving care to our 2 bengals which thrive on an interactive visit experience. We use them for 2 visits per day while we’re away, and this seems to work well for the kitties. The staff are exceptional care givers, and keep us updated with visit comments and pictures. We know they’re in good hands with PURRfect Pet.
I used PURRfect Pet Companion for my beta fish while going away on a short vacation. I had actually been very stressed because all of the slow release/digital feeders you can buy online had terrible reviews claiming they killed their fish while away on vacation. I was so nervous to leave my little guy with one of those. I really appreciated that Laura from PPC was willing to accommodate a fish and there wasn't any weird judgement about it (you'd be surprised how little people care about fish sometimes). She was very nice and did a great job! She even took pictures of him daily! I felt better having someone just check-in on our house in general while we were away too. She brought in our mail, watered plants, etc. I would definitely use her again in the future!
Laura & the team at Purrfect Pet Companion are FANTASTIC! Laura came to meet us for an initial visit and I was instantly comfortable and knew she was the perfect person to care for our Yorkie while we work during the day. She and her team are incredibly thorough with notes of their daily activities and texts during the day letting me know how the visit went. They are reliable and have trekked out in any weather to make sure Lucy gets a walk. Most of all they take excellent and loving care of our pup! A+!
I would recommend PURRfect Pet Companion to anyone! We were nervous at first to leave our cat alone while we were away. But Laura asked so many questions and took really detailed notes at our initial meeting, plus our cat loved Laura from the start. We got texts every day with pictures and a summary of how she was doing that day, how she was eating and what they did that visit (brushing, playing, etc). We will definitely use this service again the next time we travel.
Tracy has been pet sitting my cats for a while now, maybe 2 years(?), over which she has developed a good relationship with them all!! She has a lot of availability and she has reasonable rates. She does a great job making sure they are all well attended while we are out. It is hard leaving them since they are older and have some medicines they need- she takes care of it all. Really great to have Tracy taking care of our fur babies!
Tracy is remarkable. She has a gift for connecting with animals and is loving, kind and a best friend to my 86 lb shaggy pup! She has special bond with the all the animals in her care, and they can sense her love and devotion. My dog gets so excited for her walks and cuddle time with Tracy. It gives me great peace of mind when my pup is in Tracy’s care. I can’t recommend Tracy’s Love for Pets enough- Tracy is simply the best!
Tracy genuinely cares about all animals, more than anyone I know. And pets seem to know this. My cat bonded with her more than anyone else ever. Tracy is VERY trustworthy too. If she’s available to take care of your pet/ pets you don’t need to look anywhere else! Thanks Tracy
I get nervous leaving my two cats because we are so attached but I would not trust anyone other than Tracy to care for them when I go away! They are not sociable cats but love Tracy and get obviously excited when they hear her voice, and I believe that that really says something about her as a person and animal lover! She has been available to cat-sit very last minute and is willing to do as many visits per day as my babies need. She sends daily pictures and updates. Tracy is very accommodating and you can tell she genuinely cares about both the pets’ and the owners’ needs. Highly recommend Tracy’s services whether for daily visits or occasional visits!!!
Tracy is by far THE BEST!!! I can not say enough great things about her and the amazing care that she provides our Golden Retriever, Daisy!! Tracy goes above and beyond and is always available, she has been a complete life saver in a pinch! We are beyond lucky to have her in our lives 💗 …
Tracy is awesome! she watches my dog and cat and they both love her so much. she is always available and is very reliable. she goes above and beyond. I will never go to anyone else except for tracy. Highly recommend her to everyone!!!
Amazing dog walker and sitter. Our dog loves her and she clearly loves all her “clients”. She is super responsive and flexible and I trust her completely.
Great experience! Jim was available on relatively short notice to check in on our two cats while we were away on vacation. He was kind, professional and totally down to earth. Clearly an animal lover. Our cats took to him right away. We loved the text updates! Looking forward to using Puppy Butler in the near future. Update: just wanted to say thank you to Tara for taking such great care of Pearl and Luey. Your warmth and love for animals is so evident. I enjoyed your funny text updates as well. Thanks again you guys!
I can’t say enough good things about Jim and The Puppy Butler! They have been incredibly professional, helpful, and reliable from Day 1. My one year-old rescue dog LOVES his walks and playtime with Jim, and is always relaxed and happy when I come home from work. I love Jim’s personalized text and video updates, as well! As a first-time dog owner, having Jim and The Puppy Butler on my “team” gives me great peace of mind and helps me feel more supported and confident on my journey. I highly recommend The Puppy Butler to any pet owner!
Have been very happy with Jim & The Puppy Butler. They are responsive, reliable and professional. Feel very comfortable with them in my home and with my beloved pup! They're always very understanding of my schedule & accommodating to requests. They always give me plenty of heads up, if my dog's usual walker is ever away. They are very personable and highly recommend.
We used Jim and The Puppy Butler just this past week while we were on vacation. Jim came and let our 4 dogs out every day at the time I asked him to. He sent me videos and pictures of my girls outside in the yard having a great time. Our dogs are our children so there is no better feeling than to know they are so well taken care of while we are gone. We are newer to the area and feel so lucky to have found Jim. Do not hesitate to hire The Puppy Butler if you are need of any pet sitting needs. I will recommend him to everyone in the area! Thanks so much Jim!
Hiring the Puppy Butler has been an amazing choice for us! Jim is always professional and flexible. Jim is excellent with communication and always sends a picture or video of the walk to keep me informed. I am so happy to have found the Puppy Butler for our puppy Theo! I definitely recommend!
The folks from The Puppy Butler are fantastic! This was the first time we left our 2 young cats at home to go away on a vacation — and The Puppy Butler made us feel completely at ease & that our kitties were in the best of hands. They sent us twice-a-day detailed updates with adorable photos & videos (they even played with the cats and kept them so entertained!). They fed the cats just like we described, perfectly cleaned out the litter boxes, and the apartment was spotless. Best of all, we came back home to 2 very happy and relaxed cats, which is the ultimate proof of just well they were lovingly cared for. We will certainly continue to use The Puppy Butler every time we go out of town!
The whole team at The Puppy Butler has been phenomenal! Our dog and cats just love everyone who comes to care for them when we are away. The Puppy Butler team are true dog and cat lovers, who have a real gift when it comes to working with animals. Not to mention just how reliable, friendly and trustworthy they are. I really can’t say enough good things about these people!
My husband and I never left our 7 year old cat Lola with anyone other than a family member so needless to say we were very nervous! However The Puppy Butler did an amazing job not only easing our anxieties but making us feel very comfortable with our decision. The Puppy Butler was reliable and updated us with pictures and videos of Lola during our time away. It was so reassuring to see our cat be comfortable and enjoying new company! We will definitely be using in the future!
If you are in need of a pet sitting service, look no further. The Puppy Butler is the best of the best! They are true animal lovers and are the most honest, reliable, and competent pet professionals I’ve ever met. Simply put, I wouldn’t trust leaving my 3-year old bulldog with anyone else. I’ve faithfully and exclusively used The Puppy Butler for walks, sitting, and overnight boarding for a while now, and have recently just started using them for their new active offleash playtime sessions as well. I so look forward to receiving the adorable photos and videos they send me each day, as it’s such a delight seeing my little chunky furball running around free in nature on their beautiful lawns. Perhaps the most impressive thing of all is that with their expertise, they have successfully managed to somehow get my extra-stubborn bulldog actually excited and engaged for a full hour of energetic playtime each day (although it does result in some serious snoring when he’s taking his post-playtime doggy nap…). I honestly can’t recommend The Puppy Butler highly enough!!
I have been using The Puppy Butler since the business first opened and could not be more pleased with the service. The owner is always on time and has a great relationship with my dog (I think Marley likes the owner better than me!). Marley is leaner and healthier than ever thanks to The Puppy Butler! I am excited to try to boarding and grooming features as well. I would recommend The Puppy Butler to everyone!
Mike is the most wonderful person with all animals. Even my difficult mixed breed wiggles like crazy when she sees him coming to pick her up.
I love Furry Buddies! Our two whippet dogs had the best team of walkers: Tracey, Corbey, Brian, and Carol Ann! Each walker treated our pups with kindness, gave them treats and toys, and absolutely left an impression. The dogs would wag their tails at the front door when a furry buddy walker was at the door! Truly excellent service, always on time, and reliable, and great value. I always felt comfortable and trusted the walkers. Very much recommend their services.
I used Furry Buddies for around 7-8 years. Everyone I met was kind, caring and extremely reliable. They communicated well and if one of the staff was planning a day off and they provided a replacement. I felt so comfortable and relieved knowing they were with my dog,Lexi. They would call or text me if they noticed anything different about her. Their daily notes were great and when I had to say goodbye to her at 15 years old I received cards and beautiful gift from her walker amd the owner made a donation in her memory to a local rescue. This is the best organization to help you care for your pet. It is a great price for what they do. Much more than just a “walk” they provide a loving - compassionate reliable service. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you CaroleAnne
Tina is the best! sometimes we think our cat likes her more than she likes us! Always reliable and the cat isn't stressed when we return so we know she feels safe and cared for.
Carole Anne is caring, responsible and professional. She was referred to me by a neighbor a few years ago and I was impressed by her approach with my 2 cats, one of which is extremely high maintenance. Highly recommend her.
Love this service. Dog watchers are trustworthy and follow directions perfectly. They call love animals, and it shows. Plus, they offer to help with things like collect the mail, water plants, and more.
My cat sitter Tina is totally responsible and caring and goes above and beyond I feel really confident when I come home that my cat is safe and my home is has been protected
Back when we were living in Oreland we used these fine folks to walk our late and beloved dog Spencer. Fantastic staff who are enthusiastic and punctual.
Mary was wonderful with Hugh. He's shy on top of being an elderly, rather creaky old boy but she was endlessly patient and always looking out for his best interests.
Maureen and CaroleAnne are the best! They have been amazing and most accomadating to my zoo crew!
The owner is highly insulting and harasses her customers. She called twenty times just to confirm two visits. The subcontractor agreed to meet after the visits were completed and then declined. After all this, the owner wanted to charge extra.
Jack was very nice and gave my dog a nice workout. Will recommend
Jack was very responsive and professional. 100% would recommend!
I cannot say enough good things about this place!!! We no longer live in the area and we still bring our dog to board here whenever we are away. Our puppy was incredibly nervous around people when we first got her. Instead of turning her away the staff took the time to sit with her and give her time to warm up. Now she loves it there and is comfortable with the staff. The hours are amazing and the price is the best around. It is family owned and they really get to know you and your pet. They always answer the phone or call you right back. Highly recommend!
Wonderful experience, first time boarding my pups while on vacation. They were there Saturday to Saturday, three English Bulldogs, one with visual impairment and incontinent issues. I felt at ease while on vacation knowing they were safe and well taken care of. They shared an area and were kept together, fed regularly and were out to relieve them self. I would recommend this business. The owner has a heart of gold and you can always find her on the premises, hands on taking care of the dogs.
They are wonderful! My dog loves going and always comes home exhausted from playing with his friends. They love them and take great care of them! Each room feels like home with couches, beds, TV's.
Stay and play is the best! I highly trust Carol and the rest of her staff to care for my 2 dogs when I am at work or out of town. The dogs love playing with their friends and have the best time. I always know my dogs are in great hands leaving them at stay and play. The staff really treat the animals like their own and I am so grateful to have found such a special place. Thank you for all that you do!
I was very lucky to have found this place when I needed a boarding kennel for my TWC for a weekend. My dog came home happy and tired! I will call them again for sure!
Carol and her team are outstanding! Our dog Bailey had a wonderful experience in doggy daycare and while boarding there over the holiday weekend. We will continue to use this service and trust our dog's care to Stay & Play Pet Resort as long as we are in the area! Thank you!
My daughter has a covid dog. Meaning he is not socialized. We were hesitant to take him, but we needed to board him. When we bought him in the knowledge & comfort of everyone working there, it made us feel at it ease. They helped calm our dog down & were able to take him with no problems. When we picked up our dog, he was happy. Therefore we were happy. I would definitely recommend Stay & Play Pet Resort Inc.
Our Bella (English Bulldog) loves Stay & Play. The staff is welcoming and excited to have your pet stay with them. She stayed while we were on vacation for a week and came home happy and loved. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby!!! See you next time. 🐾❤️ …
I absolutely love the care our grand pup receives! The staff is amazing. I’d give 100 gold stars if I could. I highly recommend!
I recently used Stay & Play Pet resort to take care of my 10 months old kitten Ralphie when I was going out of town on vacation. I am so happy I chose this "resort" for my furbaby. The entire staff is very caring and took great care of my kitten. He got his own room and the staff visited him throughout the day to ensure he was well cared for and for some attention. I called daily to check on him and everyone was very kind and gave updates on how Ralphie's day was going. I am definitely going to reserve a stay for all of my vacations because it gave me such peace of mind knowing my lil furbaby was happy and in good hands. Thank you everyone for your caring and kind spirits 😊
It was the best situation for my two dogs and my two cats while we were away on vacation. The staff at best friends treated my fur babies like family! It’s always hard to leave your pets behind when you go away, but knowing that they are safe and in good hands makes all the difference. It allowed us to enjoy our vacation and know that our fur babies were well cared for! I cannot thank the staff there enough. Christine was exceptionally helpful and put our minds at rest!
I had just rescued 2 small dogs with PTSD, but had a trip planned a year in advance. Avery at Best Friends invited us to come visit and see if a stay would be possible. Avery was amazing at communicating and understanding our situation. The staff were very gentle and loving with our dogs, including carrying the more scared dog to our car. I am confident they were well cared for and am relieved we have a safe place for our dogs when they need boarding.
Absolutely wonderful service! I’ve been taking my Corgi here for the last year and a half, and if he was able to speak I know he would say that he had the most amazing time every time he’s been there! The staff is lovely, the facility smells nice and is clean! 100% would recommend taking my dog here!
I LOVE this place! I have an English Bulldog, and in my experience, the usual franchise grooming places do not want to spend the time grooming him because they’re so afraid of what might could happen because of his breed. Best Friends is AWESOME. I explained my concerns to them, and they reassured me that they have the experience with English Bulldogs, and that he would not be a problem for them. He has used their grooming services and has even been boarded for about a week. They are very timely, communicative, offer so many things to your pup, and are so very nice. They are the only grooming place I use now. They do such a remarkable job!
We booked a few night boarding stay for our German Shepard here after we moved and needed a closer spot. Our pup was well cared for and came home happy. We also had him groomed before coming home and it was one of the best grooms he's ever gotten!
After shopping for a good hotel for my dog I finally found one that she enjoys. She was pampered and loved by the staff. When I picked her up she was happy to see me and appeared that she enjoyed her stay. The staff and groomer were very professional the called me to let me know she was ready and had her bath and nails trimmed. Facility is very clean and temperature was great. No smell odor free. 🐩👍
Best Friends Pet Hotel was very nice for my 2 dogs while we were away on vacation. Since we had older dogs (rescues) who had never been socialized when young, they were kind enough to place our dogs in a part of the facility which was more quiet and would take both dogs outside without other dogs around as they don't get along with other dogs. The place was very clean, and the people who work there are very kind and considerate. I would definitely recommend them for day care, camp, or staying.
My baby has been going here for 4 years. He loves the play group as well as boarding. He has stayed there sometimes just for the day, sometimes a weekend and sometimes for longer stays. They are great and make each fur baby feel like they are the most special.
Women who run the pet hotel are always helpful and kind. They also love animals, so I know my dog is well taken care off
The Best Friends Pet Hotel in Huntingdon Valley is an amazing place. The people genuinely care about the animals and their kindness and friendliness is remarkable.
Lee is doing a great job with our two Beagle’s. They are a handful. Lee is very prompt, organized, and takes great care of our girls while we are at work. Highly recommend The Dog Walker.
Lee is a wonderful dog walker! My pup loves him, Endeavour looks forward to his walks with Him. Lee is very dependable and professional. I highly recommend the Dogwalker!
When I lived in PA I used their services, and had an overall awesome experience. I have a mixed breed, he is a Collie, Jack Russell, Lab mix. Least to say, he is extremely high energy. With my boyfriend and I having full time jobs during the weekdays, it’s hard to fit in all the walks it takes to keep him happy. This has been a massive improvement on his over all quality of life and the professionalism we have seen is extremely comforting. Will use again if we end up moving back to the area!
Lee is great with pets and highly educated! He takes time to ensure a good job and makes sure your pets needs are met along with yours!
Lee’s passion for animals is surely something to admire. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to give my fur babies the special care and attention that Lee gives all of his furry clients!
I had such a great experience with Lee. I recieved daily updates, photos and videos. I will be forever grateful as this was a lsst minute trip cliffhanger and Lee put me right at ease. Will be using him for my 🐕 from here on out. …
Lee loves your pet like you love your pet! Can't ask for more attentive, loving, responsible care. It's not a job...it's a labor of love!
Very reliable and passionate about your animal. Lee will more than likely exceed your expectations.
Thanks so much!
Mark and his team are the absolute best! Mark reached out to me within 30 min of me sending a message on the website inquiring about their business. He quickly set up a meet and greet visit, took very detailed notes during the consultation and spent almost an hour getting to know our kitty. We then met each individual sitter before our trip and they also took detailed notes. All our sitters are amazing! You can tell they truly love animals and have passion for the work. They accommodated us on a short notice, took very good care of our cat and sent picture updates on each visit. They also did a fantastic job cleaning up accidents and updated me on my cat’s mood and health. The price for a 30 min visit is very good. Overall, my husband and I are so happy we found Mark! Your pet and your house will be in excellent hands.
We've been using Sweet Retreat for two years since moving to the area, and we are really pleased with Mark and Arlene's loving and dependable pet sitting service. They always show such a genuine interest in the safety and comfort of our two dogs, and are timely and follow all the directions we leave them. They take pictures/videos during every visit and help us to feel not so guilty when leaving our pets for a few days. :) We appreciate you guys!
I have used Sweet Retreat Pet Sitting Service for approximately 5 years. I have three large dogs. They are very reliable and dependable. I work a complicated schedule, including weekends and holidays, but they have always been able to cover my needs. It is most Susan and Steve who take care of my fur babies, but if they aren't available Mark will cover them himself.
We have always been pleased with the reliability and professional of Sweet Retreat. Our dog is always happy and healthy.
Sweet Retreat has been great for our dog and family. They are a very reliable and flexible service that we have been using for almost 2 years. Mark is very easy to work with and our dog has really benefitted from the extra attention he gets from the dog walkers. I highly recommend Sweet Retreat!
We’ve been using Mark and Arlene for 3+ years now and they are always there for us. From two week vacations to last minute nights away! Both our dogs and even the grumpy cat are always happy to see them and are always well looked after. They are responsible and respectful of our home and requests! Would recommend in a heartbeat!!!
Absolutely the best! Sweet Retreat Pet Sitting are very reliable, always have availability for services, and staff is best with service and communication! Have used for several vacations for dog walking and sitting our large dog! Highly recommended!
Friendly, reliable, and personable. The Sweet Retreat team have been taking care of our cats and dog for a while now. We always rest reassured when we have SR scheduled for pet care.
We’ve used sweet retreat pet sitting service for a couple years now to take care of our cats while we were away. They are very easy to work with and always do a great job. Highly recommend them.
Mark and Arlene lovingly and patiently care for my high energy pit bull mix. I hate having to leave him but when I do, I have peace of mind knowing he is well cared for. They are reliable and super-competent. I've used their services for everything from multi-day pet sitting when I was away to last minute emergencies and they have always come through for us like the stars they are. I love this pet sitting duo and even more importantly, my dog does too.
