. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
Joi did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and two guinea pigs, as well as caring for my home! She is coming back in November for a long sit while I am out of the country and we all can’t wait. Joi had experience with rabbits and jumped right in with guinea pig care. She is so calm around them that they were sitting on her lap day one! She spent time preparing their vegetables and kept their enclosure and room clean, which requires daily effort. She even washed the floor mats in their room so it was fresh when I returned home. She went above and beyond sending me daily photos and videos so I could see that everyone was healthy and happy. It was apparent to me that she spent a lot of time with my pets, which is very important so they don’t become stressed and lonely when I am away. Joi also took excellent care of my two cats. They receive daily wet food with some medication and she ensured that they received it on time. My cats barely noticed when I returned because they got so much attention from Joi. She took excellent care of my front garden flowers and my tomato and herb hydroponic gardens. These take some daily attention and time in the summer, and I returned home to them looking great! Joi is a very caring, clean, and thoughtful sitter and I hope she comes back many more times!
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.
Cat and Paul sat for me in December and kept a watchful eye on my trusty sidekick Jake. All I can say is my gosh what a great job they did giving Jake a lot of TLC. He obviously missed them since he wandered around our home looking for them after their departure. My home was left in the exact same condition and they did a great job of communicating with me during my trip, letting me know exactly how Jake was getting along. I can't thank them enough for taking great care of my home and showing Jake a great time. I hope that during the coming year they will volunteer to do another sit for me. If you need any other specifics about how awesome a sitter Cat is please feel free to call or email me and I will be more than happy to give you more details. Hope you have an opportunity in the future to use them as house and pet sitters! Regards! Edward
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
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!
This was my first time ever bringing our dogs to a doggy daycare they took them in last minute and loved on them like they are their own I would definitely use this day care again! And I will 1000% recommend them to anyone who needs someone to watch their babies!!.
My pup absolutely LOVES twinkle pawz. The owner, Lindsay is soo nice and makes sure my pup is in the best care! Stella comes home tired everyday and is a frequent visitor 🙂 My experience here has been awesome and my pup runs to the fence ready to play w all her friends!
Our Yorkie and Jack Russell/Beagle mix spent the ECU Homecoming weekend at Twinkle Pawz. We were on the waitlist but due to a cancellation were able to make reservations for our little pups. Check in was super easy and the staff was very friendly. The location is very convenient to Hwy 264 and Whispering Oaks RV Resort where we stayed overnight. Pick up was also very easy. We could tell our dogs were well cared for and enjoyed their stay. Thank you for taking excellent care of our doggies!
My dogs always hated boarding. 2 are very nervous around new people and we've been told they take days to warm up to people. Not at Twinkle Pawz, my dogs open up much quicker and seem so much happier here. Plus, they sleep so well when they get home. This place is the best!
My dogs, Nara and Kuma, absolutely love it here! The dogs are out all day and the last boarding place I went to you had to pay extra for them to be out with daycare dogs for boarding. My girls always come back tired and happy and I love seeing their pictures on Facebook!
Twinkle Pawz is the best, I had a last minute planned trip and twinkle paws was able to take my German Shepherd in. The ladies there is very friendly. This was my first time leaving my pup for a long period of time and the owner assured me she would be fine. We kept in contact with updates and sent me pictures of my pup. Twinkle Pawz had wore my pup out I get her home and she goes straight to her room and goes to sleep. I can’t thank twinkle Pawz enough thank you ladies again will be visiting again.
I highly recommend Twinkle Pawz to anyone for boarding or daycare! My dog is very high energy and anxious but I know she is always well cared for and happy at daycare or when boarded. She walks herself to the gate wiggling every drop off and comes back ready to sleep for hours at pickup! This past weekend I needed to board her and she had a very upset stomach at the start but I got call updates, pictures and quick responses the entire time to know she was okay and to keep me informed! All of the staff is incredibly friendly and you can tell they really care & get to know every dog, I honestly wouldn’t feel comfortable leaving Willow elsewhere.We love them!!!
Absolutely love and trust taking my bby Premo to Twinkle Paws!! Wouldn’t leave him with anyone else. 10/10 recommend ✨ He always gets so excited to go to daycare and comes home ready for naps 🤩
I was not looking forward to leaving our puppy when we went on vacation the first time. I was quickly relieved by all the pictures posted and quick responses via messenger. Now, when we pull in the drive, he starts howling because he is so excited to play with his friends! So thankful we found Twinkle Pawz Pet Resort!
My pup, willow, loves going to daycare! The girls working there are amazing, especially Jenna! She sends me pictures and updates so I know Willow is okay and having a great time. Can’t wait for Willow to visit again soon! 💕🐾
I was in Greenville for a short 3 month contract for work, and Puptown was a lifesaver! I work long hours, so they came to check on millie two times a day, 3 times a week- they were always on time, communication was great, and never canceled on me. Millie will miss her Puptown crew!!
My pups love Matt! My 11 year old rescue pup loved Matt instantly (she has serious anxiety around new people) which has never happened with anyone. Matt is patient and caring with both of my pups. Matt is patient with my extremely energetic 1.5 year old Boxer. My pups come home tired after their adventures with Matt. I love that I always get updates and pictures from Matt with each adventure they go on. Matt truly cares about my pups and I highly recommend him for all your pet needs!
Matt and his team took great care of our fur babies while we were away. We didn’t have to worry at all about them being happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Puptown for all of your petsitting needs. ( Plus they send lots of great photos while you’re gone)
I continue to use Puptown several times each week for drop in care. Matt and his team are both dependable and responsible. Matt is quick to check with me if anything is out of the usual routine (like checking with me the time I forgot to leave my pup in the crate when I left for the day!). I know my pup is in good hands when I leave. I appreciate the feedback on how the visit went. It's a relief to know I've left my pup in the care of folks who will look after her as if she is one of their own.
I absolutely cannot recommend Puptown pet love sitters enough!! I am here temporarily for work and had to go out of town for a wedding. I have two cats, one of which is geriatric and requires daily medications. Molly was our pet sitter. She came over prior to us leaving to meet the cats and make sure she felt comfortable administering the medication. While I was gone, Molly sent me daily pictures and updates and went out of her way to make sure my cats had an enjoyable time while I was gone. She left my house spotless (all dirty litter and food cans put in the outside garbage). She was wonderful and I would definitely recommend Molly and Puptown to others! She was probably the best pet sitter I have ever had.
I cannot speak more highly of Puptown!!! They are reliable, flexible, trustworthy, and they take such good care of my little fur baby. They first started watching her when she had just had surgery and they were gentle and patient with her, and now that she is older (and crazy wild) they keep her active. My schedule can be very inconsistent and change often, and they always accommodate. From daily walks to day-long visits, I cannot recommend more!! I also love the update photos we get during each visit!
Pam Archer is my awesome sitter/companion for our three dogs. She’s attentive, responsive, and thoughtful. My 3 love her! Matt and Puptown is everything you can ask for in a dog companion company. I can leave town and not worry about my dogs i’m so glad that I found Matt and Pam.
Thanks to the kind owners of Puptown Pet Love, my fiance and I are now able to take advantage of trips away from our senior dog and cats! Matt and Leigh were very personable at our first meeting and paid attention to the needs and personality of each animal as they were introduced. They have been available to help us out, even with short notice, and while we're away they send us updates to keep our minds at ease. It is great that we can travel without worrying, now that we have a pet sitter we can trust!
I always get anxiety leaving my cat when I am out of town. I don't want to stress her out in a pet hotel, so this past year I tried out Puptown Love. Mollie and Matt were so amazing in caring for Jezebel that she was waiting for them at the door after I had been home : ) Their reliability, quality and consistency in care have taken away the anxiety of travel and I know my home and baby are in good hands.
Matt is awesome! He had been taking care of our pups for over 3 years before he moved to NC (y’all are lucky to have him!). He is super reliable and just absolutely LOVES our dogs! He not only walked them, but also stayed at our house several times while we went out of town. He is super trust worthy and reliable :). The dogs would get so excited when they heard his car pull up! We miss him!
We’ve sent our dog here multiple times and it’s always a great experience. Our dog gets shy and a little anxious, and the staff always makes sure to keep him as comfortable as possible. We are grateful for the effort to help him feel calm!
Love 4-Paws! Always feel confident that our dog will be well cared for. The 4-Paws staff go out of their way to keep us up to date on how our dog is doing. Even send photos. 4-Paws is a very professional and caring place.
This was my dog’s first time going to Four Paws Inn and he enjoyed it! I was really pleased by the service front desk provided. The girls were very polite and professional. I loved how I received a report card on my dog Rocco after he received his exit bath and nail trim! I’ll definitely be bringing my dog back.
Terrible! These people care more about a dollar than customer satisfaction! When I dropped my cat off to be boarded on Sat.11/30/24. I informed them I would pick her up Sunday 12/8 or Monday 12/9. I left RDU airport Sunday at 4:15pm on my to Greenville to get to there 6pm. I called 5:52pm and told them I should be there by 6pm. When I arrived at 6:01 pm a car was driving off. I did speak to another employee she said the receptionist was gone. I said I called and told her I was coming. Do you mean to tell me she couldn't wait a few minutes after 6pm. I rushed to try to get there but stop lights happens. I wanted my cat with me tonight. This was my 1st time with them and my last!
I have 2 beautiful dogs that are foster fails. Rosie and her daughter Teddy Bear are treated like Queens when they go to 4 Paws. From the front staff to the bathers and groomers. The girls came out happy and eager to show off their new hair and nails! They look great and smell great! And the price is more than fair for the happiness it gives me and my wonderful dogs. I choose Four Paws.
All I’m aware of is Pixie had her nails clipped as asked. She seemed fine. No shaking from being afraid. Normal behavior at home just very happy to see us.
I hate not being able to take my dog everywhere. I found myself needing to be out of town for a wedding, my vet suggested Four Paws. I was very apprehensive, my dog is a rescue with high anxiety. She was with them almost 48 hrs. She seemed happy, I called to check on her while I was gone...it was no doubt a pleasant experience. I will use them again!
I have brought my senior Persian cat to four paws many times and he always comes home so handsome. Recently I brought my newly adopted rescue dog who is not use to being bathed and they did a wonderful job with him. They were able to work with him to get him comfortable and he came home looking, smelling and feeling great. You could tell he felt better. Always a great experience!
They take good care of your pet with loving care! I would not take Alamo my small dog any where else!🇺🇸 …
I am so grateful to 4 paws Inn for taking such good care of my baby Onyx! He had a great time and apparently behaved himself very well lol. Please check them out if you need to board your fur baby!!
I have been boarding my 2 babies here for 7 years, and I never have to worry about them while I’m away. My kitties are in a separate location from the dogs, so they’re not stressed. Spacious crates. They can come out of the crates and be with each other. There’s a window with a little set of stairs where they can walk up and look out. Bob is always so pleasant! The best boarders hands down!
This place is the absolute best! She would of course prefer to be home on our pillows but sometimes Mom and Dad need to go away. She arrives at Paws and Claws wagging her tail and leaves happy to see us. We’re so happy our veterinarian recommended this special place where Honeybea is well cared for.
This is the most wonderful place with wonderful people. My dogs have stayed twice, for over a week each time. Everyone is professional and so very caring. They show as much concern for the dogs in their care as they do for the doggie parents. Thank y'all so much!!!!
Could not be more pleased with a facility and team! Linda, Bob, and the team are great. The space and activity areas are superior to others and their caring attitude with attention to detail is unsurpassed.
We’ve been to other places and were never happy until our cats and dogs stayed at Paws and Claws. The staff take good care of our pets, and we’ve only boarded with them since we first found them. They’re the best! Great outdoor space for the dogs to really run around, as opposed to cramped runs that other places offer. All four of our pets do great there!
Friendly, loving and atmosphere! clean facility Abby was happy looked great but was ready to return home. 😆 but she knows when we are on our way she got so excited about going there. That told me she was well treated. ❤ …
Our dog loves going there. She loves the staff and the staff love her. Never worried that she isn't taken care of.
I have been taking my girl there for years and they are the best! She is always happy and healthy when we return to pick her up. You will not regret leaving your baby in their hands.
Recently moved from VA to NC and renovating a house. Between no electricity/AC and return trips to VA I have boarded my Scottie from several times a week to several days a month. My dog had never previously been boarded. When he sees the facility he rushes out of the car and doesn't look back. They have great customer service and my dog loves it there.
The staff know all the little quirks of my two dogs, especially my anxious dog. They go to great lengths to make my dogs feel safe and secure when they are boarded there. My anxious dog even gets excited when we pull up the driveway! I couldn't ask for a better kennel. Other things that I particularly like are excellent communication from staff, prompt response to my emails and voicemails, cleanliness of the facilities, attention to detail when providing care to my dogs, and overall professionalism. I highly recommend this kennel.
Where do I even start. Preston and Jim have been wonderful with our sweet boy Ace. I didn’t think Ace would change due to his behaviors. It would be hard for us to give him the life we wanted for him because we were unable to take him out in Public. After his month-long stay we finally were able to bring him home and he’s a completely different dog. We were able to take him out in public without him lunging at others and barking at other dogs. I’m very pleased with the results and I will definitely say it was worth it. At the end we came home with the tools we needed to keep practicing with him. I definitely learned a lot just the one hour we were with Preston.
Excellent job Jim and Preston! We used Hoffman Haus training for our 6th month old lab and noticed once home (1day) the big change already! How did we choose this place? Charlie our 3.5 year old Golden Retriever has spent many nights there and we’re totally impressed so why not continue using there services. Again many thanks. Ted, Sandy, Charlie and of course Brodie
We've been bringing our dog here close to 5 yrs for a day up to a couple of weeks and he's always had a good time. We have a Malinois, so we understand that he's not for everyone, but the staff at Hoffman Haus are knowledgeable to be able to deal with different breeds. We trust them with our dog any day. We appreciate being given daily updates, pictures/videos, which gives us a peace of mind that he's being taken care of. They have tons of supplementary services outside of lodging which is nice. Keep up the good work!
Jim and Preston were wonderful trainers! Our dog was 9 months old when we enrolled her so she had already picked up some bad habits. Oakley was very bad at jumping and biting for attention. They were so patient with her and the communication between them and us was great and informative. The facility was beautiful, clean, and the staff were all very friendly and welcoming to our dog and us! Oakley was treated wonderfully and she was so well taken care of! I highly recommend Haufman House for training your fur baby as well as their awesome boarding facility! Thank you so much for all of your diligent and hard work Jim and Preston!
Hoffman Haus is the greatest!! I brought Munchkin (aka Munchie) when I realized he needed much more training than I was able to do or even the knowledge to do. Preston and Jim are absolutely incredible and so knowledgeable about training. Just after a week, Munchie was learning things I could have never imagined. Preston took him and loved him like he was his own. They truly went above and beyond caring for and training Munchie. All of the staff there were truly amazing from day one!!! I never worried if he was being cared for and loved. Every time that I texted Preston to check on Munchie, he always answered and sent videos and pictures. I could never ask to be treated with such kindness than what I was given by Jim, Preston and everyone that I come across since day one. Munchkin has come a long way since August and he has so much more to learn. I can’t say enough great things about Hoffman Haus!!!!
Jim and Preston were amazing with my doodle Zoe!!! They took a 7 month old pup and taught her to listen to commands and do them on command! Super impressed with their skills and my well behaved pup! Looking forward to continuing to learn during their Saturday training sessions! Thank you both from the bottom of my heart!
Hoffman Haus did a wonderful job helping our dog Mollie. For the last 4 years we have struggled to figure out how to train her as she becomes very anxious around other people and dogs she does not know. We were thrilled to get several updates during her month-long stay at Hoffman Haus showing her progress and Jim took his time to talk us through his work with Mollie and answer any questions we had. Not only did he train Mollie, but he trained us so that we could continue working with her at home to further her success. Hoffman Haus provided the training foundation we needed and we can truly say that Mollie came home a different dog. We know it will take continued practice to maintain her skills but we now feel that we have the tools and knowledge to help Mollie be the great dog we know she can be.
The staff at Hoffman Haus have been the best home away from home for my dog, Nova. They take the best care of her and as a frequent traveler, it’s such a peace of mind to leave her with people I trust. They know me and they know her, greet us by name every time we walk in! The photos are evidence of how much joy she gets out of her time there! Thank you!!! 🙏
I've been a customer for 2 years! I've boarded my dogs here but have never boarded my cat. BUT Matthew has told me time and time again how well the cats are taken care of at this amazing resort, and the pictures I have received of just my dogs makes me feel like I am leaving them in a safe place. I just boarded my cat for the Holidays and have already received pictures of my baby, happy as can be! Thank you to a wonderful and loving team!
We decided to train and board our 10 week old cane corso and after him we sent our 15 month husky!! It made a whole world deference, yes they were gone for 30 days and yes missed them terribly, but their whole attitude was different!! Jim and his staff are amazing and they loved our babies like we would have!! We received updates via videos and text! We now take our trained fur babies everywhere and their behavior is amazing!!! We definitely will be going back for boarding and grooming!!! I can not say enough great things about Hoffman Haus!! I recommend the to any and everyone!!! Excellent care and service all around!!!
Loki is so excited for his grooming appointment at CritterCuts tomorrow. Let's just hope he doesn't pee everywhere due to his uncontrollable excitement this time. I've been taking Loki since he was a puppy and we are now going on 2 years of being critter Cuts loyal customers. Thank you for being so understanding and keeping me up-to-date with all of his appointments. You guys are amazing at what you do. Thank you for being so good to my sweet handsome furbaby.
I have had Collies or Shelties all my life and always did my own grooming. But because of a broken wrist I had to find a groomer. I looked at local ones and checked out their websites, ratings and reviews. I decided to choose Critter Cuts and I am glad I did. My Carrie Mae and Parker looks fantastic after their spa day and the folks there answered all my questions and fulfilled my extra requests. Definitely recommend them! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾. 5 paws review
We’ve taken our dog Sammy to Critter Cuts for around 8 years for grooming and sometimes boarding for vacations we’ve always been pleased but yesterday (09/5/24) I picked him up from being bathed and nails trimmed and was told he had fleas and was charged an extra fee I paid it with some hesitation he’s an inside dog and my son and I monitor him closely to avoid fleas and ticks he’s also on medication for them as well after returning home I checked all his bedding the house and no fleas I checked the car no fleas my son checks him regularly and no fleas I’m now thinking either a) if he came in contact with fleas it must’ve come from the play area outback of Critter Cuts or b) the price was padded I regret their actions and now we’re going to find someone else that will be more trustworthy
Amazing place. I’ve been taking my Daisy there for a few years. My pup loves it there. Excellent staff. Daisy looks great every time.
My dogs are always very tired after a vacation at Critter Cuts. They love it and wag tails when we head down Asbury Church Rd.
I took both my terrier dogs for a salon day, which included nails clipped, shampoo and and a small trim.
Wonderful people. Gracie is so sweet and truly loves her job. Have used critter cuts for years, Sadie loves going there; would highly recommend!!!
I cannot say enough good things about Critter Cuts. I’ve tried several groomers, I drive and hour and a half to take my doodle. She’s a mud diver and they never complain about her pitiful state. Love Critter Cuts.
Shocked that they increased the price $48 without warning right before Christmas. Definitely getting the Scrooge and Grinch award!
Great grooming and sincere people. My dog Snoopy was treated with kindness. His groomer Natalie did a Wonderful job on his nails and haircut!! Will definitely recommend Critter Cuts.
We just relocated to Greenville and had to find a day care for our 3-year old German Shepherd. The Dog Play Spot has been wonderful! Our very active and playful pup is well cared for, has a great time and comes home ready to rest (great for us). Their hours are really flexible and the cost is reasonable. Definitely recommend!
My dog loves going to the dog play spot! The staff treats every dog like family! I love checking the camera to see what my little is up too! Very convenient as well.
We love the dog play spot! The flexible hours, online booking, and web cameras to watch my fur baby during the day are all very convenient and appreciated. The staff gets very happy to see my girl when I bring her in for daycare. When I have boarded her there I was given a report card upon pick up of when she was fed and her meds given to her which was signed off every AM/PM which was nice to read. I can tell the staff is caring for the dogs that attend and any questions I’ve had they take the time to answer them and discuss any concerns I give them at drop off. We have been using DPS since October of 2023.
The Dog Play Spot saved our Christmas holiday weekend with family! We were on a wait list and thankful we got our girl in because this place is the absolute best! We heard nothing but good things about TDPS, and if our dog could talk she would say the same thing. Our dog is a one of a kind where it takes a special person to have patience with her. She doesn't play well with others so we opted for extra playtime with staff and I just KNOW it made her day. We were able to call to get an update on how she was doing and the staff even emailed us pictures which helped to put our mind at ease. We are incredibly thankful for the staff at TDPS and will use their services again and recommend them to anyone looking for boarding!
Our dogs were so well accommodated that they barely wanted to leave when we came to take them home. We have full confidence and peace of mind that our dogs are safe and taken care of with kindness and compassion when they can’t come with us when traveling. We’ve used several different places before we found “The Dog Play Spot” and our only regret is that we didn’t find them sooner. We trust them wholeheartedly from this day forward. All the stars!
I am traveling for work so my dog has been coming here Monday through Friday. The staff is wonderful, With every person with whom I have had contact very kind and friendly. They always great my dog by name and treat him like he’s their own dog. Most importantly, my dog loves it here. He Knows where he’s going in the morning and gets excited when we pull into the parking lot. While my days are long & I feel guilty for how long he’s there, I know he’s being well taken care of and loved. I highly recommend The Dog Play Spot.
My 2 dogs love the Playspot. They run in in the morning and are so tired and happy when I pick them up. They also have a very skilled groomer available.
My 2 year old retriever mix, Copper, went today for the first time for a half day. I can’t say enough about how awesome our experience was. The staff gets an A++++ from AK at the front to Taylor and the rest of the gang whom I just don’t know their name yet! Copper will be coming back for more fun and for her grooming. So very pleased with these folks. I just can’t wait to take her back! 🐶
This was our first visit at the play spot and our pup loved it. We checked the webcams throughout the day and he was playing and having a great time. We will definitely be back! The staff were very friendly and helpful.
So glad to have The Dog Place Spot available for Ruby. There is no problem getting her groomed while she is there for day care or just for grooming. I appreciate the workers and their love for dogs.
I’ve been taking my Shih Tzu to Jill’s for maybe four months now or a little longer. I decided to let someone else groom her because it was starting to take me a really long time. So when I was taking her, I didn’t think it was a problem for them to cut her nails, but I did mention to them if they needed to muzzle her it would be fine. Last couple of times I noticed her nails were getting longer and then she started limping. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought they would be taking my money and not clipping her nails and jacking the price of the grooming up. I ended up having to cancel her last appointment there and to make an appointment at Craven Animal Hospital to have them cut her nails because they had started curling back into her paws. Now for that to start happening to a dog, that’s been well taken care of and has always had their nails cut. Someone had to be neglecting her for two or three months. I will never go back there again. The supervisor there seems to be trying to be friends with the employees so I don’t think she’s really handling them well if they’re not cutting nails because they are afraid. I know I’m not the first person this has happened to. I just want everyone to know what they are doing in that grooming room. And it could be a new person or it could be someone that just didn’t feel like cutting her nails and decided they’d skip it and let the next person cut them. Talk about Mad, I was steaming. I had to keep myself from going over to Jill’s and confronting the supervisor and the person that had been doing her nails. I’m seriously considering taking them to court and getting my money back. Beware, you have been warned. Our pets are just like children so when someone hurts them, it really gets under our skin. A previous time when I took her to get groomed, she had little cuts all over her body. I have no idea how this could happen unless it was someone inexperienced or being mean to her.
By far the best pet daycare and boarding facility I have ever used! I never worry about either of my furbabies when they are at Jills...you can tell they are loved. I really like how they always greet me and my dogs and they always remember Tobie's name. I wish I could give them more stars!
We’ve been taking Cooper(Charles) Williams to Jill’s since May. He does daycare and boarding. I know when I drop him off he is well taken care of. He also boards there and he loves it. He practically pulls me into the place and happily goes in. Everyone at the front desk is so welcoming and the daycare and kennel staff take good care of my Cooper. They all do a great job. Thanks for having a caring and safe place for my Baby. Keep doing a great job. The Williams.
I’m always impressed with Jill’s. I know it’s not easy cutting a doodle and we’ve had many bad haircuts elsewhere. But not once over the last 2 years has Jill’s disappointed. I’ve also never had my anxiety ridden dog so happy to go back without even glancing back at me. It tells me she’s taken care of. The price is actually great compared to the quality you get elsewhere. Will always recommend
This place is amazing! Our baby girl stayed 13 days and came home freshly bathed and smelling good! She wasn’t anxious at all! She stayed in their classic suite due to nothing larger available but it was still a 4’x2’ area. Next time we’ll upgrade to larger suite! Well worth the 1.5 hour drive away from home. I was relaxed knowing our baby girl would be very well taken care of and not just locked in a tiny kennel and left alone! Our Gracie Daith will stay here from now on!
I will preface this review with the fact that the groomer was completely professional and informative. So was the staff at the front desk. To elaborate on this first time experience, I will say, I will not return. I own a Great Pyrenees. She is a working dog. Strictly outside 24/7 (unless it’s scalding outside, then she gets mild indoor A/C treatment.) That means she’s a mess, and nearly impossible to maintain without proper tools or expertise. We like her to get a good grooming at least twice a year to shed her layers of coat to help her maintain in the hot weather. My mother dropped Ella off at 8:30am for a walk in appt. We knew it would take some time between scheduled appts and other walk ins for her to be done. I didn’t pick Ella up until after closing. (5:30pm) Perhaps it was my mother’s fault for not giving the correct in-depth information to these people about the lifestyle of our dog. Perhaps it was the staffs fault for not assessing Ella more promptly or thoroughly or asking questions about her constant environment that could have given them more information about the dog they were going to attempt to groom. Upon arrival, I just wanted to get my girl home. I didn’t care if she was wet, unfinished, or not done at all. She had been away from the farm for too long and around animals she was unfamiliar with all day and I knew she would be stressed. They rushed to get the most important part of her grooming done in the 20 mins I was there waiting. Her undercoat and deshedding. They had the opportunity to charge me the extra $40 for it too. $155 later (because I felt guilty leaving no tip. I know she’s hard work and I love to tip well when it is deserved… if it would have been more timely and prepped, I would have gave way more, because I appreciate the effort put in.) I left with a dog who was still a little damp, and still needs a good brushing to get all the excess off, but is very clean and smells better than the chicken poo she had previously rolled in. Safe to say, if you have a full-time working dog, this groomer is not for you. They seem to excel at well maintained, smaller indoor pets. Given the neighborhood, I could have assumed as much. They do extremely well with what they know. But if you have a large breed working dog, this won’t be the place for you. I still appreciate the work you guys did, and I know it must have been a shocking experience compared to what you’re used to. Now you know, if someone says “working dog” ask some questions. Thank you.
Today was the first time I ever took my dog Bear who is a Labradoodle to Jill's pet spa to get groomed. I was a little nervous because I know some places can really botch up a doodle breed. When I came to pick him up, I was extremely mind blown with how amazing he looked. He smelled wonderful, and the groomer was extra ordinary when it came to what I wanted done with my dog. I will 100% will be taking him back in six weeks to get groomed again.!!!!
As always, the staff goes over and beyond to make sure my fur babies have a great stay. They are always friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend Jill’s and will continue to use them often!
Grayson and Bones stayed at Jill's for two nights in a suite. When I picked them up, their blanket was soaked in feces, and they smelled atrocious. I was advised it had just happened, yet how could my dogs smell exactly like the blanket if it JUST happened. It has been a week, and both of my Great Danes are now suffering from severe Kennel Cough. They went in healthy, and I picked them up stinky and sick. So now $250 at Jill's and a nice hefty vet bill to follow it up. My dogs will not return, and I refuse to recommend it. @Jackson, I appreciate you reaching out to me directly. It reduced my anger greatly. Your concern for our family was more than I could have expected. You, sir, are one in a million. You have my respect, and my Danes are so very grateful as well.
Ashley did a great job on my little dog Murphy. I think it's my favorite hair cut for him!
When it comes to a reliable place to trust your dog with, this is the place. Sue and her staff are great. Snoopy is 12 years old and lost his sister which was the same age in August of 2023 and he has been in the dumps. We started taking him here once a week which has really brightened up his day to see other dogs he can associate with. Keep up the great work.
Very pleased. Professional, courteous, caring, friendly, helpful, reliable and with dedicated knowledgeable staff members. Who can ask for more than that?
Love this place! They're able to handle my monster husky and understand the level of play he requires. I can take him there and feel like he is safe and being treated well. I've taken him to other places in Washington and he's come back anxious and scared. When he gets here he runs straight in with no issues or protesting.
We have a dog with anxiety issues. She is blind and gets confused. The staff recognized she was having a hard time and took measures to make her comfortable. We appreciate the care and concern.
I live in Pennsylvania (PA) and was going away for 3 weeks in July – peak vacation season! I looked at kennels in my area, but did not get that warm and fuzzy feeling about them. A good friend, who lives in North Carolina (NC), recommended Chocowinity Pet Resort and Day Camp as she knows the manager, Miss Sue. I took a trip down to visit my friend and to tour the Pet Resort. The place was immaculate and very well kept. The location is off a main road, but secluded enough to not have a lot of car traffic. Compared to the kennels in PA, this place was perfect with huge runs – even for small dogs; play/common areas outside that were fenced in; staff that were so nice and accommodating, even though I was trying to book during a prime vacation time of year. I really couldn’t have asked for a better place to leave my fur babies and feel that they would be safe and well looked after. They even took the time to send me pics of them while I was away – how caring is that!! So yes, I drove all the way from PA to NC to kennel my dogs with Chocowinity Pet Resort and Day Camp and would do it again in a heartbeat. It was well worth the trip for the peace of mind that my dogs were getting the best care they could while my family and I were away. Thank you again Chocowinity Pet Resort!!
As a new dog owner and a not so pleasant experience at another facility, I was reluctant to board my husky ever again! But an occasion arose and I was referred to Chocowinity Pet Resort. I am SOOOOOO glad I gave them a try! The manager was amazing! She spent time on the phone with me, was able to get my husky in on very short notice and was just a very pleasant woman! Once we arrived, my dog was showered with lots of excited attention and was whisked away with no anxiety on his part! (he is usually anxious and nervous!) He came home the happy and excitable dog he usually is, unlike his last visit at a different facility! (It took him 2 days to go back to his normal self after that experience) I was so glad that he did not require his anxiety meds while he was there also! That says A LOT about the care and attention he received. I highly recommend this facility and will sing their praises to anyone that needs to board their animals! . =)
I brought my dog with me visiting my family but Mom is allergic to dogs and I boarded him here. They have a great facility. It was too hot for them to open the indoor/outdoor kennels which seems like a great option but they took him out to play with other dogs which he loves. Three large play yards. They gave him a raised bed to sleep and treated him well. For an additional half day fee I could pick him up on Sunday morning, which I really needed. This is better than the facilities I have locally and it's not always worth bringing him on the long drive, but now I know in case of need this is a great option.
We left our dog Molly for the first time over night It was hard and the staff reassured us she would be fine. she wouldn’t eat the first day so they mixed some can food with hers and she finally ate. I called every day to check on her and they gave me a update, if your pet is your fur baby like ours this is the place.
Kept Gracie here for ECU graduation. What nice folks! Recommended.
I visited this Pet Resort for a position that is available. Sue, the owner, is friendly and was a great help answering my questions about being employed there. Resort is clean and spacious. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my beloved dog's in their care.
I really appreciate Heather, Robbie, and their upbeat, energetic team of dog walkers! They do a wonderful job taking care of my dogs! My dogs are like children to me, and they are so much more relaxed and content when I get home (not frantic or lonely like they used to be). These amazing dog walkers are completely trustworthy, friendly, and flexible. They are the best dog walkers I ever had, and I highly value them. My dogs love their visits, and I feel peace of mind being at work, knowing they are getting a daily visit from their friends at Crazy Mutts! :-)
We recently hired Crazy Mutt to take care of our furry feline daughter while we were away on an extended vacation. Crazy Mutt did a fantastic job! They were trustworthy, reliable, prompt, and consistent with their services. We came home to a very happy and content "Effie Jane!" Big thanks to Robbie and Heather for all you do and we will definitely use Crazy Mutt again and recommend your services to all of our friends!
I used Crazy Mutt for dog walking and pet sitting services for the last three years and they have been amazing! They send me texts to let me know how my dogs visit went and have been so accommodating when I have to schedule a visit last minute! I can tell how much they care about their clients and pets and my dog has always been so happy to see them! I'm so thankful to have had them while I've lived here!
I am so thankful to have found Crazy Mutt!. I own two dogs. Prior to moving to North Carolina, I had never left either of them in the care of anyone other than a family member. One of my dogs has a history of abuse, and as a result exhibits many of the behaviors that you might expect (fear biting, mistrust of strangers, etc.). Both of my dogs have chronic diseases that are managed by daily medications. For the first few months that I lived in North Carolina, I did not venture far from the Greenville area. I was not sure if I could ever feel comfortable leaving my dogs. Then, I found Crazy Mutt!. After contacting Crazy Mutt!, Robbie came to my house for an initial meeting. I could tell by how my dogs reacted to him that he knows his stuff! He was kind enough to give my one dog the space and time that she needed, but not intimidated or discouraged by her demeanor. She had already started to warm up to him before he left-a huge feat. When I scheduled by first weekend away from home, I was able to use the Crazy Mutt! client portal to select days and times of days for drop ins. Though I received a prompt confirmation of my requests, I still felt compelled to e-mail Crazy Mutt for a more "old fashioned" confirmation. Heather was so kind and understanding in her response, she did not seem bothered by my dog-mom anxiety. When I returned from my weekend away, I was so relieved to see that both of my dogs were happy and well. And not only that-Robbie had left a note detailing their weekend activities, so I knew how they pooped, ate, and exercised. If it helps for a reader to know, I have a fair amount of experience caring for dogs. I grew up in a pack of dogs, spent years working at a dog daycare/boarding facility, and have myself taken care of dogs in their homes while their owners were away. That being said, Crazy Mutt! really provides top notch pet care, and I highly recommend the services that Robbie and Heather provide. Crazy Mutt! is awesome and easily deserves a five star rating!
Looking at previous reviews, I do agree that requesting walks through text messages can be difficult and sometimes messages can be missed. However, ever since their online portal was launched where you can sign up for dog walks online, I have had zero problems with Crazy Mutt Pet Sitting! They always come exactly at the time slots I sign up for, and my dogs are always tired when I return! I have also used them for a pet taxi service to doggie daycare when I was leaving out of town too early to drop them off. Thanks for always keeping Ari and Enzo happy and tired!
Crazy Mutt is an excellent pet sitter!! They kept in touch with me while I was away for a very important event, kept my mind at ease knowing my fur babies were well taken care of. When I came home I could definitely tell the babies were as happy as could be. Will absolutely use them again, and again. Thank you so much Heather for going above and beyond
I can't say enough about Crazy Mutt-I've been using them for about 7 years and couldn't be happier. They're dependable and reliable and above all else, they'll treat your Pet as one of their own. They'll go out of their way to make sure your pet is taken care of. I highly recommend them to anyone in the area looking for a reliable pet sitter.
They forgot about our cats over Thanksgiving weekend 2016. They were starving for 3 days. If you have any love for your pets you will choose a different pet sitting service. Heather even yelled at us and told us it was our fault. We had a $250 check-up bill. Once we notified them if that, they went silent. Thank you Firetower Vet for seeing our kitties so promptly. I will never forget coming home to their starving faces.
This is truly a terrible service. I know there are so many positive reviews, but our experience was TERRIBLE. The initial meet and greet went fine. Then we travel three hours away and paid for four visits. They didn’t show up. We checked our alarm system and could tell our doors hadn’t been opened. They didn’t respond to our calls or text messages. I had to have another client call and they answered for them. First they lied until they realized we had proof they hadn’t been there. Then said they forgot to put us on their schedule. Then ARGUED with us that our dog didn’t need that many breaks/walks. You agreed to a service. Stop. Then they told us they would refund us for the two visits they missed. It’s been years and we haven’t seen that money. They straight up took the cash from our house for services they didn’t do. Then disappeared after promising to return the money for services they failed to render. It ruined our trip worrying about our special needs dog. There are so many good boarding services that we have found and trust since then. Also, have the emails to back all of this up 🤷♀️ ETA since the owner claims to have no record. That is the problem. You never put us in your system after our consultation (per your email). Emails below. (Removed emails below after for privacy).
We used have used their services for many years for multiple animals. They are terrific! They have always taken good care of our pets. And our pets have always loved their visits. We have great trust when our animals are in their care. Highly recommend!
This facility is amazing! My pup has attended daycare, and most recently boarding. The supervised play time is great for her socialization. They attach a report card daily, with photos. The 24/7 webcam access is wonderful to check in on her. She’s always having fun! The staff engages in play with the dogs, and you can tell they truly care about them. We had a not so great experience at another boarding facility in the area. I was nervous to board her again. However, picking her up from boarding, she was as happy as can be and I knew she was well taken care of and loved while we were away. Thank you so much❤️
I recently had the pleasure of using both the daycare and boarding services at All American Pet Resort in New Bern for my high-energy dog, Bailey, and I can't praise them enough! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and professional, making both me and Bailey feel right at home. The daycare experience has been outstanding. Bailey, with her boundless energy, gets to enjoy spacious play areas and plenty of engaging activities, including their amazing pool. She loves splashing around and cooling off, and it's clear that the pool is a favorite among the dogs. The staff's attentiveness and genuine love for animals shine through, providing me with peace of mind knowing Bailey is in great hands during the day. When it came time for boarding, the experience was just as exceptional. The facilities are spotless and equipped with everything a pet could need for a comfortable stay. The staff provided daily updates and photos, reassuring me that Bailey was having a fantastic time. She especially enjoyed her pool time, and it was clear she was well taken care of and enjoying herself when I picked her up. Additionally, I took advantage of their additional services, including baths and nail trims, which are handled by their skilled kennel techs. Bailey came home looking and smelling wonderful, with her nails done perfectly. The kennel techs did an excellent job, further showcasing the high level of care and attention all pets receive at the resort. All American Pet Resort truly goes above and beyond in their care for pets, making it the best choice for both daycare and boarding. I highly recommend them to any pet owner looking for a reliable, loving, and fun environment for their furry family members. Five stars all the way!
All American pet resorts was amazing with are German Shepherd, The front staff was so warm and welcoming, they had cameras in the waiting room so you could watch how are fur baby was interaction with other dogs, They have the private suites which also had camera so you can watch your fur baby as well, Very clean! Dylan had great time he spent 3 hours there, he was relaxed when got home, which was I nice feeling, he wasn’t anxious when we left, We have decided to leave Dylan there when we go away on vacation, I felt he would be well taken care of at the All American pet resorts, We have tried a few different places I never felt comfortable leaving Dylan there, We finally found one!

I am using All American Pet Resorts in New Bern, NC. My Dutch Shepherd Luna has visited twice now. Luna is only 28 months old and still full of energy. This facility is spotless clean. Staff is excellent with both the customers and their dogs. I highly recommend this facility for anybody who needs boarding, day spa, grooming, etc.
We brought our dogs with us from out of state; The initial phone call was very informative and helpful. When we arrived, check in was smooth and seamless. I loved receiving the report cards each day with pictures of play time etc. To know they were enjoying themselves with new friends and awesome staff was a breathe of fresh air and no worries for us. It was the best boarding experience we have had. Highly recommend and will definitely be using them whenever we travel to the area again.
I took my 2 older dogs in for daycare. They spent time in doggy play. I watched on the Webcam. They seemed to really enjoy themselves. The 12 year old had such a good time playing, she went straight to her bed and slept for hours.
All American is the best in New Bern. We have used several other boarding and daycare services here and none are as good as AAPR. We live 5 mins from another popular pet center but have had such superior experiences here that it’s worth the drive across town for us. The staff are so friendly and clearly very experienced and knowledgable about dog’s behavior. They are thoughtful with the play groups and give them breaks throughout the day to prevent overstimulation. Our dog leaps out of the car upon arrival and comes home delightfully tired. Really can’t say enough good things!
TLDR: They're amazing! Try for yourself and see how pleased you and your pup will be! Full review: We used the lowest grade/basic boarding services, the Deluxe Suite. The price was very reasonable, and felt like you get "more bang for your buck." You don't necessarily have to pay up front (at least for boarding), as you do with most other places/people. We paid about the same rate per night as we would with boarding in someone's home, with SO many, many more benefits, and then even more!!! Access to all public cameras, guaranteed play time with other pups of similar sizing (if you so choose), someone is always there (which also helps if you need to drop off or pick up at odd hours), caring staff, secure indoor and outdoor areas, and a bed. :) They don't charge additional for every little thing. Included in any boarding and with no additional charge: food, water, treats, (most) medicine administering, group play, daily report card with pictures, and more. It did catch me off guard that it seemed that there were little to no collars on the dogs during our stay, which quickly turned into a pleasant surprise that shows me they do their best to ensure that the pups are as comfortable and carefree as possible. FYI - for brand new clients, I believe they require online registration and an orientation day with your pup(s) prior to boarding so make sure you plan accordingly. The owner, Jennifer, and her staff are top notch, and will DEFINITELY be seeing us again soon! Thank you AAPR for your love and care of my furbaby!
Decided to try this spot after the previous grooming place became very inconsistent and I will definitely be switching to here! Service was amazing and the inside was very clean and new. Everyone was very friendly. Most importantly, my pup Strawberry looked and smelled clean. The cut was great and any of her mats and snags were gone. She was brushed to perfection and was so soft. It was evident how much attention the groomer gave to her. They also added super cute little bows to complete her look! Awesome groomer and hopefully the service stays consistent. Will be my new place for Strawberry!
Angel, the young lady at the reception desk is very nice and helpful. Having multiple web cams let's you see your dog whether playing with the group or in his private space.
