There were pros and cons to Tyler and Kimberly’s stay. Pros: - They arrived early in the morning when we asked them to, so we could go over things in the house and with the pets - Our animals were cared for and were healthy and safe when we returned - We received pictures at least once a day and were given updates when asked - Our plants were watered and survived Cons: - There was damage to things in the home when we returned - The handle to a serving dish was broken, as well as a glass (I understand these things happen, but it seems odd that this large baking and serving dish was used at all. They did offer to pay for it, but we’re trying to go through the insurance from Zeewoi) - The rugs in our hallways had been chewed by our dogs in several places, rugs that the dogs shouldn’t have had access to unless they were being watched - When we texted about what happened with the rugs, we seem to have been ghosted - The scoop for the cat food was missing and the dogs’ scoop was chewed (again something the dogs shouldn’t have had access to) - A large, bloody hunk of raw beef was left on a dish in the refrigerator for us to deal with I’m sorry to say that overall we were disappointed, but in the end, the most important part of having a sitter - taking care of our pets - was achieved. So, in that way, I can recommend Tyler and Kimberly. However, we are dissatisfied with the care that was given to our home and things.
Jeremy is an excellent pet sitter! He's very kind, dependable, & professional. He took excellent care of our cat while we were away for 10 days. We were fortunate to have him be our pet sitter.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?

What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Always kind and competent taking care of my 3 different cocker spaniels. Totally happy with Liz' service. Have been cared for by Liz now for 6 years...walks, day care, boarding and ALWAYS excellent care. For cat at home and dog all services.
My sister in an incredibly strong and trustworthy woman❣️ She's fun, happy, supportive, extremely responsible- and GREAT with kids and animals❣️❣️ She's the best mother I know, and definitely the best pet sitter/ pet nanny. She's been taking care of business and holding things down in East Falls for a while. Lizzie is extremely friendly and affable and beloved. She loves her life and her company. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED & Please Respect❣️❤️🐩🐕🦮🐕🦺🐈🐈⬛🐇
We love Pamper and play! We have used their service for walking our dog and for housesitting. In both cases we found Liz and her team to be reliable, responsible and loving toward our dog. I also love how we can book a dog walk once in a while when we realize we're going to be gone for a long day. Liz is as happy and responsive to do a oner-off walk as to be coming regularly. The folks that housesit for P&P are wonderful. (TJ is great!_ I can tell they really bond with our dog. I highly recommend Pamper & Play. You won't regret it!
Liz is an incredible pet sitter! She loves others pets and cares for them like they're a part of her family! Wouldn't want anyone else to take care of our two big dogs and many cats! Not to mention our bunny and reptiles! She's amazing!
I had an amazing experience with Liz every time that I've asked her to watch my pup! I love that she offers pick up and drop off service for overnight visits. She could not make her services anymore convenient. Love!
Very professional. We had Liz take care of our 2 dogs and 4 cats, in our own home, while away for our summer vacation in Myrtle Beach. They and we loved her!!! She stopped by 3x a day to make sure our furry family members were happy and healthy. Liz even went the extra mile of vacuuming to make sure we didn't come home to extra fluffy carpet due to summer shedding. She loved the animals as if they were her own, and spoiled them as if so. I think they were more upset to see Liz go then us when we left for vacation lol. She also kept us updated daily with how everybody was doing. They didn't seem to miss us one bit 😍
I have two German Shepherds and was dog sitting for a friend when I had a family emergency. I was needed at the hospital ASAP. I was nervous about these dogs being together and I needed someone fast that could handle the job. I had heard about Liz from a friend. I can't express my gratitude enough. She showed up as quickly as she could. She walked them, fed them, managed to have them all tuckered out by the time I got home (not an easy task) AND all three of them were snuggling on the same bed. As far as my experience goes, Liz is a miracle worker! I will definitely be relying on her services from now on.
Liz has been awesome for me and Leo. She is super reliable and gives you peace of mind during long work days. Took Leo on 30 minute walks every week day for over a year. I'd recommend her to anyone in the area. Thanks Liz!
Great place to drop your pet off and not worry about them like I did when we went on vacation, My dog likes Liz and is happy when I drop him off. We are finally free to go where we want for as long as we want without worring about are dog,what a relief. I highly recommend Pamper & Play Pet Sitter!
Liz is amazing with skyy and is very reliable and flexable. I love taking skyy over to liz because I know skyy will receive the best care. Sky always leaves happy and tired from all of the walks. I would recommend Liz for anyone who needs a dog sitter/walker.
Would give zero stars if possible. -My dog and his toys all smell like they just came back from a farm. Ask them if you can see the kennels if you decide to board your dog here. -My dog always pees a ton outside immediately after I pick him up (there’s a grassy area outside the front door). Makes me wonder how many times a day the staff actually lets him outside to relieve himself. -They charge by the day, so even if you drop off at start of business on Monday and pick up your dog at start of business on Wednesday, they charge you for 3 days.
Caveat emptor. We won't be using Elkins Park kennel anymore. The staff is very bad at communication, wasted my whole day. Taylor said the dogs would not be ready until 12. When we got there they were closed. Andrea said come back at 4 but they weren't open until 5. Then they insisted on contradicting me about what others told me. Worst customer experience I've had in years. Watch out for their prices! They don't charge you for nights there, they charge you for days. So you pay an extra day if they keep them 9 nights.
Extremely fair pricing compared to stop many other boarding places. It may have less frills but I don't find those necessary for a few nights of boarding. And since it's attached to an animal hospital I trust that if something were to happen my dog would be in good hands.
From closing Saturday to Monday you can not call & check on your pet. No one will either be there or answer the phone.
No management, animal neglect, dangerous place for your pet, inattentive owners. Lots of problems with boarded animals, neglectful staff, with only a couple of decent workers. Go elsewhere.
Attentive staff. our dog is always happy to go there. they are very professional and loving to the 'guests'
No management. Animals left alone for a long time between Saturday and Sunday morning.
the best
Best pet sitter ever! Highly recommend for every occasion! My pets are so happy to see her every time!
I can't recommend Fishtown Furbabies enough! Stephanie took care of my cat Stretch when I was away on vacation. I got constant updates and photos letting me know that my buddy was being well taken care of and was in good hands. My mind was immediately put at ease that I had done the right thing by entrusting the safety and well being of my cat to her. Do not hesitate for a moment trusting your furry friend to Fishtown Furbabies!!!
Steph is THE BEST with our 3 furbabies including our very challenging pitbull, one mischievous cat and one very shy cat. It's such a relief to know that they are well-cared for when we are away and we can really relax and not worry about them. It's always a bonus when Steph sends us cute pics or post cute pics of our furbabies too. She loves our furbabies like they are her own and I trust her implicitly.
Steph is amazing with animals. She watched my senior kitties, gave them the extra attention and snuggles they needed and even sends photos to you while you're away which always helps when separated from your babies. Highly recommended, very professional, friendly and awesome to do business with! ❤ Thank you Steph!!
We've been using Fishtown Furbabies for 4 years and can't recommend enough. I love getting the daily pet updates from them when they're watching my cat!
The Fishtown Furbabe crew is incredible, trustworthy, dedicated, understanding, and give our babies all the love in the world. Communication is excellent and the service is outstanding 🖤 …
Steph is the bestest!! I know my kitties, Damien and Angel, have a great time when she is around!!
Great business owned by a great person. Treats animals like they were her own, and they love her!
Kind and loving to all pets big and small
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 💗 …
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.
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!!!
Well, it's the safest, warmest, gentlest place for a pet I'd ever seen or trusted your pets are in great hands. The owner treats me like a son .
Our Home Dog Boarding is the best "cage-less" kennel care your pet will receive. I boarded my dog with one of the sponsor families and she was absolutely wonderful. The process is easy. Steve will set you up with a meet and greet with the family who is approved by Steven himself, if all goes well you set the date and drop off your dog and his/her things to the host. I've boarded my dog several times and have never had an issues at all. Such a great concept and very affordable.
So very highly recommended. The personal attention and care Stephen and his team of people (especially Diane) that open their homes to my dog is above and beyond expectations. My dog has fairly severe separation anxiety and Stephen has the patience to understand him and our situation and accommodate and care for him in so many ways that make him comfortable. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my child is with people that understand, appreciate him and work hard to make him as comfortable as possible. He and his team are true dog lovers and understanders; consistently and thankfully accommodating to my and my dogs personal situation. I very highly recommend!
I met Steve Linn when I had a rather old, very sick Brittany. I had previously used Lakeside Kennels for years, but I did not want to leave him there to go on a long vacation when he became ill. I saw a business card that Steve had posted on a message board at my gym. I called him and started interviewing some of Steve's dog hosts. We found a perfect place with a host who did older dogs and took them on many short walks a day and spent the rest of his time at home with all the dog beds lying in front of him. It was the perfect place for my dog. Unfortunately Zeke has gone to the rainbow bridge. Now I have Elvis a 2 1/2 year old Brittany. I have left him with two different hosts at Christmas and have been very happy with both experiences. I wouldn't consider leaving him anywhere else. Now Steve is making mailboxes with your dog's face and body surrounding it. This mailbox is a big hit with my family and all my family and neighbors who have seen it. I am sure you will find a picture of it on Steve website. It is the one with the gorgeous orange brittany on it.
I cannot say enough great things about this service. Dianne (Grandma) was fantastic. The fact that a meet and greet with your dog before you leave them is very comforting as it gave me peace of mind knowing ahead of time that our Maggie would be happy there. The process from start to finish was easy and efficient. Did not have to wait for responses to inquiries. Just wished Grandma lived next door, such a lovely person.
Incredibly happy I found Steven and his wife. Had not left my senior Labrador in anyone else's care for nearly 7 years basically because I didn't trust anyone. Knew from our meet & greet that my guy would essentially be on a vacation and receive the care & attention he needs. Grateful about every aspect of his stay. Thank you!
Bentley loves visiting for both day care and boarding!!
Both Rhett Butler and I are thoroughly enjoying your service! I can see the difference in him when I pick him up from the boarders (Kim and Diane). He is carefree. In the past as much as I liked the service I used; when I picked him up he was anxious and it was apparent that he'd been over licking his forearms. When I travel I don't even worry about him now. I have peace of mind. Thank you!
Our dog loves Our Home Dog Boarding
The dog walker is Great, easy to work with and a joy to see how our doodle relates to her.
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!
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!
I was so nervous to leave my 6 year old Australian Shepard over a long weekend for the first time not with family. The Puppy Butler eased my worries completely, and there’s no where else I’d choose to send my baby to. The updates and pictures I received while away made me feel so comfortable that my dog was in safe and happy hands. When I picked up my dog, he was absolutely exhausted, and slept so well for the rest of week. A tired dog is truly a happy dog! The Puppy Butler has a passion for dogs and people. I would 100% recommend their service to anyone looking for a second hand in helping take care of their four-legged baby.
Loving care of our cat. Very responible care giver.
Failed to respond.
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.
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!
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 😊
Took my 5 month old lab max there, first time ever boarding, let alone doggy day care. He loved it & slept like a champ the night we brought him home. We will definitely be back!
Have used since May 22 for day care and recently for a week of boarding. Staff is great, hours are flexible. Our Grover loves it and always come home exhausted.
You have the right services that have me coming back. The staff is awesome, the place is immaculate clean and the camp guidelines and rules make it safe to leave my guys for the day or overnight. I love the grooming services, the little extras you can get like playtime, snuggle time, picture day is awesome, I get the best shot from picture day and all the other events you have.
Great place for your pup to have fun and mix with other pups to get some energy out. The employees and Manager are terrific and truly care about your family member while they are there. And as a bonus you can check on them with their live cameras Highly recommend them!
Tater Tot has been attending Camp Bow Wow for over a year now. They are absolutely wonderful to Tater and anytime I look at the camera's his tail is wagging! Highly recommend especially if you have a puppy that needs to burn off some of that excess energy and needs more avenues for socialization! Tater Tot's brother Waffles will also be going as soon as he is old enough! Also the holiday pictures they send are absolutely the best!!! (Tater Tot thinks he is a model now)
The facility is beautiful and CLEAN! As soon as you walk in you smell a fresh clean scent, every time. The staff are always friendly and helpful. They know my pup by name and are always happy to see him. I feel 100% safe leaving my dog, Roadie with them. He’s boarded there several times and also gone to the day camp many times. The Comly Road facility is literally amazing! I have not one bad or negative thing to say about this place. I’m grateful that it exists. My dog and I love it so much!
Gus loves Camp Bow Wow. Everyone is very friendly, the camp is clean, and most importantly Gus feels comfortable there.
I love that you are a pit friendly establishment. The staff is very warm and caring. The facility is always very clean. I love that I can access the camper cam to check in on my fur baby. Everytime i think about Camp Bow Wow my heart just leaps with joy that I have a place that is very accepting of my Baileigh girl. She’s been discriminated against in other establishments based solly on the fact that she is a pitbull and that hurt me to my heart because i know she is the sweetest, most gentle baby girl. Thank You Camp Bow Wow for EVERYTHING 🤗.
My dog and I love Camp Bow Wow! Jack gets so excited from the time he walks in the door. The camp counselrs take very good care of the dogs. The absolute best part is the camp cameras. I can watch Jack play with his friends and check to see if he is okay. Peace of mind is everything! Camp Bow Wow for the win!!!
My dog Axl loves going to Camp Bow Wow. The people are so nice and take such good care of my dog while I work. I love the fact that I can check in on the camper cams during his stay. Today he participated in a dog birthday party and got a goodie bag.
If you are looking for a day campo for your pup this is the perfect place. They treat my baby girl Luna like family. She is always happy to be there and is played out by the time she gets home. The staff is great. They are friendly the facility is always cleaned and well maintained. I feel at peace when she is there.
Great staff and clean facility! Love the option of having my dog groomed there and all the fun picture events!
