Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
There are not enough words in the English language to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and all the amazing love and care she showed my sweet cat Milo. From the moment she met Milo, I knew there was going to be a very special bond. He instantly relaxed when he first met and already looked so happy and at peace with her. The bond between the two of them only seemed to get stronger and stronger with every day that I was away. This two-week trip was so important for me as it was the first real "vacation" I had taken in a few years. I was in desperate need of a mental and physical break and knew that in order to have a true "time off', I needed to feel completely at peace with Milo being well-taken care of. Well my prayers were answered as Teresa was the "cat whisperer" I was hoping for. I could not have asked for a better, more compassionate, self-reliant, and intuitive sitter ! Teresa was also so diligent in sending me her daily picture and video updates of my cat. With every picture and video I saw, I knew that Milo was so happy being with her and I never worried for one minute while I was away. What a gift ! Teresa was also a serious life-saver for me as literally an hour before I was leaving for my trip, I found out my cat's tracker app was not working and after a few emails and phone calls, we found out the tracker's server was down. Teresa took the initiative to follow up with getting the tracker to work again which was a HUGE stress-relief for me . She is not only wonderfully savvy with animals but also with technology as well ! I feel so fortunate to have Teresa in my life now, not only as an amazing sitter for Milo but also as a wonderful friend for life! Thank you, Teresa for everything.... Milo and I so appreciate you .....
Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
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.
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
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 $ per visit, $21/week 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!
We have been using ESP Pet Specialists for about 3 years and they are FANTASTIC! They come by 2x a day and feed our 2 senior cats as well as administor their medications without any issues. We love when we receive the AM & PM Pet Journals which include a few photos and text on how the kitties are doing. ESP is an excellent pet service and we highly recommend having them take care of your fur babies while you're away. They truly go above & beyond for your pets!
ESP Pet Specialists are awesome! We hired them to watch our cats while on vacation, and Evan and Anna were great. They truly care for the well-being the pets they care for. They gave us regular updates with photos and were always there when they said they were and paid attention to the notes and instructions we left for them. I highly recommend them, they are trustworthy and so easy to work with.
Everyone at ESP Pet Specialists is amazing. They are professional, caring and will go above and beyond when needed. My pup loves Evan and I know he is getting the best care when I go away and have to leave him. I love getting updates and photos of my pup everyday while I’m away. I have tried various other pet care places. My dog was always withdrawn and nervous when I returned. Now he is his normal self , as if I had just been out for the afternoon, when I return. I would never leave him with anyone else again.
I have a big dog who is very strong and who I’m very particular about who I let around her. From day one Evan has been great and he’s been taking care of Remy for over a year now. I tried Rover and other apps and it was always a terrible experience. Having the flexibility as well as someone I can depend on has really allowed me to have peace of mind. Both Eva and Eva have gone the extra mile, given great care and paid extra attention to my requests and I can’t recommend them enough.
We love Evan, Johnny and the whole team at ESP! Over the last year, ESP has been there for us and Mocha consistently, several times a day, every week, walking him and also working with us as we navigated finding the right food and schedule for our Australian labradoodle puppy. Their dependability, flexibility, and attention to detail has been really differentiated and are attributes that we really value and appreciate. Super caring and reliable. We’ve also boarded Mocha with ESP too and the clear and constant communication flow kept us informed and at ease. Strongly recommend Evan and the team at ESP!!
We are so grateful to have found this service! Our dog Yofi is so happy when we book a walker. We also loved boarding Yofi with them, we got pictures and a story daily and he was so happy! The payment is easy and they are always reliable. We 100% recommend ESP Pet Specialists!
We have been working with ESP Pets for years to watch our dog Tashi! They are always on time, and treat him with lots of care and attention. Tashi is a slow walker and they are patient and adjust to his speed. They are flexible when last minute changes come up and we need an extra walk and are very good about safety. We also love that they offer weekend and holiday walks, something other dog walkers didn’t offer in the area. When we moved to NJ from Brooklyn that was something I was really surprised to find- not everyone has weekend times around here. We are incredibly happy with this service and Tashi is a happy dog! The walkers do a great job with photos and descriptions of the walk, and they are really good with dogs! I strongly recommend this company to anyone looking for a dog walker in the area. It’s a very convenient, reliable and high quality service!
I use ESP Pet Specialist's for overnight dog boarding while I am away. Their website is excellent for requesting your reservation and they respond very quickly. They provide many photo updates while your pet is watched. The sitter, Patty, is incredible. She does an excellent job with my pup in her home and I always know he will be cared for and safe. Her whole family embraces my animal. I highly recommend ESP Pet Specialists for all your pet needs.
If you are looking for a Dog Walking Service then you don't have to look any further than ESP. They are super professional when it comes to their walkers and support. The platform they operate on is extremely user friendly making it easy to schedule and make comments on all requested services. They make it very easy to receive updates on upcoming services, emailed reports immediately after the service is completed and the ability to provide feedback directly to the walker and management. The walkers themselves are great and very responsive and respectful to feedback. They have gone above and beyond for our dogs when it comes to feedings and cleanup (for the occasional accident). From a customer service perspective, they are FIVE STARS! They have helped us on multiple occasions with last minute requests and/or emergencies. The owner (Evan) is very approachable via phone or text when needed. They are also very accommodating when is comes to weekend, holidays and or last minute cancellations. There may be a small fee for these premium requests but they are very reasonable for what you are requesting. Again, can't recommend them enough.
We've been using ESP for about a year and they are the best! Very trustworthy and our dog just loves his walkers. We were nervous about going on vacation because our pup can be anxious and wary with strangers, but Evan and team took the time to get to know our dog and we can now go on vacation knowing our pup is in great hands. Thanks ESP!
The Barker Lounge is absolutely wonderful. We’ve taken our boy to other daycare and boarding facilities, and truly none compare to Barker Lounge. The staff are incredibly kind, caring, and thoughtful — you can tell they really enjoy their jobs. Everything is well-organized, clean, and professional. Our boy is soo happy to go in and join all of his friends (both human and pup friends!), which says all we need to know about him being comfortable. Above all, we feel safe with him there during daycare and overnight for boarding. We are very grateful to have found Barker Lounge!!
I have been sending my very beloved pup (2 yr old, boxer/pit mix with endless energy) to Barker Lounge in Livingston for over a year and I could not be more pleased with the experience. I send her for day care on average 2-3 days a week, and utilize their boarding services often as well. Everyone on the team is kind, patient, professional and makes me and I know, my pup too, feel like very valued clients. The owner Mike will contact me directly for out of the norm behavior my pup may exhibit (I.e upset belly) - I am *a bit* of a worrier and a first time dog mom, so this kind of communication goes such a long way/lets me know my dog is in caring hands. The pictures posted on social, and sent during overnight stays, truly will make my day. I love seeing how much fun my pup has, and appreciate how they really seem to operate like a well oiled machine. I have visited/toured probably 7-10 different facilities, and in my opinion, barker lounge is the best. I have options within minutes of my home but choose to drive out of my way, for my dog to be in the best place possible at the Barker Lounge.
This place is fabulous. The staff is even more fabulous. We know our baby loves a place if, when we walk in, he gets excited and runs toward the people working there. That's exactly what happens when we walk into the Livingston Barker Lounge. The staff is amazing. We boarded him there overnight for the first time recently and were nervous about it. On their website, they posted pictures for us and told us how he was doing. Great communication on their part. Your dog is your baby and you have to feel comfortable where you you leave him and who you leave him with. We don't even have a second thought bringing him to The Barker Lounge and I would recommend them to anyone.
Barker Lounge in Livingston (and Cranford!) is an amazing place! There is lots of room for the pups to play (its's deceiving from the outside). The facility is clean and smells clean! The staff is amazing. You can tell they love their jobs and the animals. Check in and out process is flawless.... scheduling services and boarding is a breeze.... love all the pictures posted daily and the report card and email updates. Everything is just wonderf!!!!!
My dog Armando loves the Barker Lounge. He has so much energy and it is a wonderful place for him to meet new friends and play all day. By the time he gets home, and he never wants to come home, he is pooped. Now whenever I see the words Barker Lounge his ears perk up and he is ready to go. I highly recommend Mike and his staff this is a great addition to livingston!
The Barker Lounge has become a family to my girl Jem. She comes once a month for a bath with Aurelia, she gets a bath, nail trim, & a hygienic hair cut. Before coming to The Barker Lounge Jem was afraid of getting groomed, she’d shake and try and run out. She now is over the moon going to see her friends at The Barker Lounge and comes out with a wagging tail and doing tricks! They take your dog in as if they are one of their own and there is no one else I would trust to bathe my dog, I truly recommend The Barker Lounge!
If I could give ten stars I would! The staff and owner are awesome. I never have any doubt that my dogs are in the best possible hands. Staff is attentive, courteous, professional and keep the facility clean and decorated for every occasion. The owner is present and involved with the daily operations (such a vital part in the success of any customer service business!) I highly recommend The Barker Lounge to any pet owner!
My senior dogs have graduated from group boarding after their final stay at the barker lounge Livingston this weekend. After boarding my dogs for 15 years in various places we have lived, there has never been a place they have loved running into and been so well loved and cared for as the barker lounge. The email updates are wonderful. They always come out clean and happy. I can’t wait to return with our next family dog down the road. For now, our senior dogs will enjoy their final years of vacation time quietly in the comforts of our home. Thank you for everything barker lounge!! You are truly a gem
I love sending my pups to Barker Lounge in Livingston because *they* love it there. We do our grooming there and it has been a great experience for us all. We had many unhappy grooming situations before finding Aurelia and the team there. My pups are able to play all day and get groomed together, which keeps them calmer. They come home looking adorable and neat. And I don't need to worry. Cost is reasonable, scheduling is easy, and communication there is great. Can't say enough good things!
Our dog loves to visit Barker Lounge and we feel wonderful bringing him there. They are well organized and caring. The facility is beautiful, clean, and has large indoor and outdoor play areas which can accommodate dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. The staff are wonderful and really get to know each dog. Feeling confident that our pup is safe and happy allows us to enjoy our vacations. We are so grateful for Barker Lounge.
This review is long overdue. We found Dr.Weiner about 3 years ago and followed him when he opened the vet clinic @ Pups at play. He is by the far the best vet I've had in my 20+years of owning dogs. He is knowledgeable and genuine. He checks in between their visits with specialists and is always available if you have any concerns or questions. His staff is also great!!! Can't recommend enough! Thanks for your care Pups @ play!
I can’t say enough great things about the staff at Pups@Play. They genuinely care for the dogs as if they were their own. Every time I drop off my dog, I feel confident knowing they are in safe, loving hands. The team is attentive, professional, and always goes above and beyond to ensure each dog is happy and well cared for. It’s clear they love what they do, and it shows in the way they interact with the pets. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy, dog-loving daycare!
I had a great experience at Pups at Play veterinary with Dr. Weiner . He was thorough, compassionate, and took the time to answer any questions I had about my cat’s care. Everything you look for in a veterinarian. He gave me next steps and great recommendations for a specialist. You can tell he truly cares about his patients. I highly recommend him and his team.
I love this place. The staff are friendly, understanding and accommodating. My dog is reactive and sometimes people make me feel bad about that, but they work great with him and help me work better with him. The vet is very knowledgeable and professional. I have referred others there and they took excellent care of her dog in an emergency. I am so glad I have them.
Dr Talik is the best person and Vet I have ever met. She has an amazing sense of what is really going on with my dog ! ALL the time! Every time! My dog is very anxious and has issues that Dr. Talik was able to treat. She is kind, caring! And takes her time explaining everything very clearly. She also gets down to the floor look into my dogs eyes so that she can connect on more than a human level!!! Best experience ever and if your dog has the least bit of anxiety , she is the One !!! Thank you Dr. Talik and I’m so glad I found you and Cooper is also grateful!!
Dr. Weiner and the staff at Pups@Play are outstanding. Dr. Weiner's Yorkie knowledge can only be obtained by actual experience.We traveled from Delaware so our Essex would be cared for by the best for her surgery. Thank goodness we did. Dr. Weiner is amazing. We knew we were in good hands immediately after meeting the Dr. and staff. Thank you to everyone who cared for Essex. We appreciate you!!
I love pups at play! The staff at pups at play are so caring and kind with all of the pups and are great with my girls Maggie and Coco. The groomer Melody is great! Dr. Weiner the vet is amazing. I love that it’s a one stop shop.
I just adopted a cat & went to Pups @Play after MANY recommendations. Dr. Weiner and his staff were friendly, attentive and most of all, thorough. They were gentle and patient and took the time to answer all our questions. I did not feel rushed at all. Very knowledgeable & wonderful with my kitty. I see why everyone sent me here! Highly recommend.
If you are looking for an amazing vet or even a place for day care, Pups @ Play is it! They have the most amazing staff who are passionate about all of the dogs that come to them while also treating the pet parents with the same care. I have been through a handful of medical issues with my dogs and have always felt like my concerns were heard and the amount of followup and reassurance that my dogs are in the best care is above and beyond. I only trust my dogs to be treated by pups at play and specifically Dr. Weiner and his staff. They truly are angels and I'm extremely lucky to have found them!
They are really amazing with our puppy. I also love how it’s a 1 stop shop for all our needs from boarding, training, vet, grooming etc. They are very communicative and really have taken great care of all our pets.
We went away for 5 days and were nervous to leave our baby with a pet sitter for the first time ever. We can say now as long as it’s Jaime we will never be nervous again! As you can see our cat loved her lol. We received daily photos, all directions were followed as given in regards to feedings/supplements and litter scooping and she even vacuumed around the box which I didn’t ask of her! Came home to a happy, healthy and loved kitty 😊
Jamie is wonderful! She took such great care of our little guy while we were away for a few days! I was green in the area of pet sitting because I usually take the pets everywhere with me lol. But Jamie exceeded my expectations by far! We also communicated daily while I was away, and she even sent me daily pics of my little guy. It was because of Jamie that I could relax while away! My entire family thanks her for that.
Jaime is amazing. Truly the best pet sitter I have ever had. I struggled to find someone who’d care for my ferret, but she went above and beyond. She’ll love your pets as if they were her own, and you’ll always have peace of mind when you’re away. Trust that your fur babies will be in excellent care here!!!
Jaime was great with my dog! It was my first time hiring a dog walker but she exceeded the expectation! I received a photo after the walks and he looked so happy. I even noticed his appetite increased which is a great sign that jaime provided much needed exercise.
Jamie is such a delight to work with. She quickly bonded with our dog. She provides great care and love to our fur baby. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a passionate dog walker . She continues to be reliable and trustworthy.
We hired Jaime to care for our pets in our home while we were away for almost two weeks. We have quite a menagerie - 4 cats and 3 dogs, several of whom have special needs. Jaime was amazing with meeting all of their needs. She kept in touch via text several times during the first few days which gave us great peace of mind. We returned home to happy, healthy pets. If Jaime can handle our handful, she can handle anything! Highly recommend.
We’ve used Jamie now twice with our big boy Archie! Jamie is absolutely amazing and has treated our needy boy pristinely! Our first experience with Jamie found us in a pinch and needing a dog sitter for an unplanned trip. Jamie helped us calm down and made time to make sure we and Archie were comfortable with her. Needless to say we were sold and haven’t looked back since! Jamie thinks about the things most walkers/sitters don’t… she checks the temperature, she pulls in packages if they’re out front, and sends you photos of your furry one without being asked. If you need any of the services Jamie offers, do yourself a favor and book her. You won’t regret it and most importantly, your furry friend(s) will have the best time! We highly recommend Jamie!
Jaime takes really good care of our dog Jager. He seems to be happier than when we leave him behind. She’s super nice - super reliable - I recommend Jaime to take care of your pets while you’re away or even while you’re around.
Jamie stayed at our house with our dog Ollie for an extended stay to care for our dog while we were away and she was absolutely fantastic. Ollie is a senior dog, and he needs twice daily shots of insulin for diabetes, and Jamie managed his care beautifully. Jamie was extremely caring , making sure to keep Ollie well socialized during our absence. She was available in real time to update us, and extremely diligent about ensuring that Ollie was always a happy dog. She was also extremely respectful of our home, which she also took great care of while we were away. We really felt like Jamie treated our dog, and us , like we were her family, and we look forward to working with her again in the future.
I was looking for someone who would stay overnights with Cleo when I have to travel for work. I'm new in town so I had a lot of anxiety about finding someone trustworthy and skilled, but Jaime put all my worries to rest. She is very easy to work with, pays careful attention to all instructions and sends multiple updates during the day. Cleo took to Jaime right away and did very well while I was away. She didn't show any sign of stress, which was my top priority. Everything worked out perfectly. I'm lucky to have found Jaime.
Daisy came home tired and happy from her first experience at K9 Resorts. Our other dog Gracie always loved it there
We love k-9 in Fairfield! My dog, Callaway started going when she was around 7 months old as we were referred by our neighbors dog who goes. My dog is super happy, loves other dogs and has a ton of energy so I decided to give them a try. I was super nervous dropping her off for her evaluation, but the assistant manager Sue was so helpful and called me halfway through the day to give me a full report! Ever since that day (almost 2 years ago!), Callaway has literally squealed in delight from the car when she knows she is headed to K9! The staff is always so friendly and caring and I know they treat my dog amazing because as soon as she steps in the door, she’s kissing them, wagging her tail and goes right in! I love how clean the facility is and what a great job they do staying on top of vaccinations. I highly recommend k9 and appreciate their services. If you have a dog that is social or energetic, their daycare is a lifesaver. My girl is so much happier when I am work hanging with her human and pup pals than she is at home! I also enjoy seeing her having a great time on their Instagram while I am at work!
The staff is absolutely fantastic. We've been boarding our boy here when I travel for work, which is frequently, and they've always given him excellent care. Sue, in particular, is amazing. She is so helpful with advice and she truly cares about the dogs. Highly recommended - worth the price.
Our dog is always so happy going to K9 Resorts and I know he will always be well taken care of. Even after all this time they have been closed due to renovations from fire, the staff did not skip a beat on the great care of our Theo. We look forward to his next stay there.
I brought Butterfinger on opening day and was so impressed with the facility and staff. Can’t wait for happy memories to be made!!
We love K9 Resorts because we know our dogs will be well taken care of, and we don’t have to worry when we’re away. The facility is always clean and the staff is very professional and kind.
This review is long overdue. It is going to be lengthy, but since I always rely on other people’s experiences, and like to do thorough research before deciding on anything, I thought it might be helpful for some others like me. We always wanted a dog, but we used to travel quite a lot, and COVID lockdown seemed to be a perfect time to get accustomed, and figure it all out before things go back to normal. We got our first dog, the cutest beagle puppy, only 8 weeks old. Few months later, after talking to a lot of my friends, reading a lot of reviews, calling and visiting quite a few places, I decided to sign up my puppy for half days day care package at K9 in Fairfield. My first interaction was with Anna, she showed me around, and she was so helpful and patient with so many of my questions and worries. The place is so clean, and I loved that instead of separating the dogs by size or breed, they actually group them by energy and personality. My dog hates the collar (I know, I should make him 😬), but k9 does not require them to wear one, and still they know every single dog’s name. They told me that every dog has unique personality just like people. I started taking Benny for half days once or twice a week, and he was so excited every time we pulled up in the parking lot. He always left happy and exhausted, and I very much enjoyed seeing the Instagram photos of him playing with all his friends. I know some other places offer 24 hours video access, but honestly for me it would be a distraction, because I would most likely be watching it 24 hours (lol) and stress even more. After almost a year, time came for my family to go back to traveling, and we were supposed to leave him for two weeks. I was so nervous, and sad, and worried about everything. Is he going to sleep, is he going to eat, will he get sick, will he miss us, will he forget his routine at home, and God knows what not??? My Benny was literally on his own little vacation while we were away. He had a blast! I emailed every day, and whether was it Anna, Andy, Nancy or Sue, every single time I got the response right back, with all the updates about how he is doing. The day we picked him up, once again I worried. Did he loose weight, did he loose his voice, is he a different dog now? He was exactly the same, happy, playful dog that we left two weeks ago! Today I took him for day care again, the first time after our vacation, and that’s what made me post this review. He was SO excited to go in, and see the staff, and see his friends- it was a definite confirmation that this is the place to leave my dog without anything to worry about! At times, I struggled as a first time dog owner. Anna and Andy always gave me tips and advice on how to deal with it. K9 knows dogs, they care for them, and they keep them safe. I am so happy I found them, and I am recommending to everyone!! Thank you, K9 Fairfield ❤️!!
Really great experience. My dog LOVES this place. Staff is super friendly and they genuinely care about my dog! Highly recommend!!!
Highly recommend! My girls are very excited every time I mention where we’re going! Their happiness proves that they are having a wonderful experience. Staff is always pleasant and very responsible.
I had my dog board for several days here at K9 resorts in Fairfield. The staff is very nice, professional, and very attentive. During pickup my dog smelt great from his bath and could tell he had a great time while we were away. It is great because while they board they also can participate in daycare daily. Our dog came home super tired due to all the fun he was having! I will definitely bring him back here to board and for daycare!
We have been Silver Hound clients for 7 years for both dog walking and cat siting, and couldn't recommend them enough! They are the absolute best! They carefully vet the people they employ to make sure that they're trustworthy and caring. They are quick to respond to any questions or service requests. They take care of our pets like they are their own. I never worry about my pets when Silver Hound is caring for them. You won't find a better team!
We’ve worked with Silver Hound for over two years and could not have better things to say. They are very communicative with daily walk updates and quickly respond to any questions. I also trust all the walkers who often are coming to our home when we are at work. They’re very good to our pup and respectful of our home. In all this time we’ve also never had any mix up or situation where our dog was left home without a walk. I would recommend Silver Hound to anyone in need of reliable care for their dog.
Silver hound is extremely professional and reliable! It is such a relief to trust my dog is being cared for on days I have to commute. Zue is very organized and great at communicating, and their online booking and notification system is really useful and efficient once you get the hang of it. Would definitely recommend Silver Hound to anyone in the area.
Silver Hound is a top-notch organization. Professional, thoughtful, courteous and incredibly reliable. Our two dogs were lucky to have Patty take care of during Thanksgiving week. Everything went very smoothly as usual. Highly recommend!
Silver hound team was very thoughtful, thorough, and passionate when caring for my cat who also needed extra attention because of her love for outside adventures. They nailed her care despite added challenges, my kitty was doing well then I was away.
Silver Hound takes amazing care of my cat while I am out of town. Their communication during visits is excellent, it puts me at ease so I can enjoy my time away! Everyone is so kind and easy to work with. Highly recommend!
Excellent care, attention to detail, and communication about visits! I have been using Silver Hound cat sitting services for many years. I feel at ease when I have to go out of town knowing Zue and O'Brian are taking care of my girls. I would not be able to go on vacation without Silver Hound! Highly recommend their pet services.
Zue and the crew at Silver Hound are really thorough, thoughtful, and great to work with. It is such a nice feeling to come home to pets that you know have been cared for and are doing great. Good communication, nice people, just the best experience.
Google only allowed me to give them 5 stars. But if I had to be honest their service, attention, and love for our family and our fur-baby is truly invaluable. We have been entrusting Zue and O'Brian with our cat Carrie for over 4 years now and consider them members of our family. The level of expertise and commitment they have is evident in the way they care for your furry babies. I know when they watch over Carrie that they love and care for her as if she were their own. One time when we were away our cat got a little sick and Zue and O'Brian went out of their way to make multiple visits to our house on the same day to make sure she was not alone and doing ok. I will always remember that because it further solidified to me that they are not just a business. To further prove their selflessness, during the pandemic while their business was being adversely affected, they offered free dog walks for the elderly population to ensure those at risk did not have to be outside. In short, they are the most good-hearted people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. If you and your pets are lucky enough to live in the areas they service, not only do they come highly recommended, they come pet approved too! Our Carrie always looks forward to spending time with her two favorite people!
They do not accommodate clients’ needs. They refused me service because I only needed walks 3 times a week instead of 5. It doesn’t say this anywhere on their site. I work from home 2 days a week and will not pay to have someone walk my dog while I am home. Very disappointing, as they are one of the only dog walking services in my area. They have left me with no way to get my dog out during the day. Edit: Too bad they felt the need to lie in their response to my post. I've added a screenshot of their email saying they do not provide walks for 3 days a week, and that they are "specializing in midday walks every day Monday through Friday." Every experience matters, even for those who do not end up being clients. I think they need to take some marketing courses.
I highly recommend Diana! She is a very loving, caring person. Very dedicated and professional. It is amazing how much love she has for animals. Diana has taken care of my 2 doggies (Teddy and Leah)several times and they love her. She is the best!! Someone you can trust leaving your pets with. Highly recommend her, you won’t regret it 🐩🐶💕
Diana is the best at what she does. She is an amazing and caring person and ho provides a high level of love and care to our furry family member. She is very knowledgeable and experienced and takes great care to every detail including their food as she uses only natural ingredients in their diet. I have completely trust in Diana and I highly recommend her. She is extremely professional and a true animal lover.
I have known Diana for six years. She has the biggest heart for animals and will do anything to keep them safe and happy. When she is with my dogs I feel comfortable and confident they are in good hands, getting lots of love and attention.
I highly recommend this dog sitting service! They are incredibly loving and attentive, and I always feel confident that my pets are well taken care of. It’s clear they truly care about the animals, and my pets always seem happy and relaxed when I return. Fantastic service!
Diana is a great sitter! She keeps me updated on Leo and he loves her family. Highly recommended!
We found Lauren and her company Canine Concierge in 2016 when we were going away for Thanksgiving and needed a last minute visit service for our cats, and we were so happy with her that we booked visits with her every time we were away ever since! The website makes it easy to book visits, and we have always been very happy with the thoroughness we see every day when we cat our "cat reports", complete with pictures and fun summaries of how everything went. It's something we look forward to each day we're away, and we feel at ease with our cats in Canine Concierge's hands.
Lauren is just wonderful! She took such great care of our Oliver while we were away. She even made him a special dog-friendly yogurt and peanut butter birthday cake on his birthday and had a little party for him with all of his friends there. She sent me adorable videos and photos. Oliver enjoyed his vacation there!
The Canine Concierge team is the best around! They truly care for every single pet that they service and will go beyond and above to make their visit awesome! The photos and visit recap are a great communication to see how the visit went and important info on your pet. Their communication within their app is prompt and professional. I have been with them for 17 years and would never go anywhere else!
“I couldn’t be more pleased with our fantastic dog walkers, the service from the owner Lauren and everyone who works for this wonderful company. They treat my dogs like their own, providing excellent care every time. After each visit, I receive a detailed report with pictures, which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work, knowing my dogs are in good hands. On days when I’m stuck at work or have a last-minute appointment, they always manage to accommodate. I highly recommend them—5 stars, 10/10!”
We have had such a positive experience with Canine Concierge! We have what are considered exotic pets. The time and care each member puts into taking care of our pets is amazing. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality pet care.
5 stars for this pet sitting and dog walking service. They are outstanding. They are dependable, caring and also share the most incredible photos each time they visit with your pet. I have complete trust and confidence when I hire them. Shout out to Sarah and Dena who are the best
I have known the wonderful people at Canine Concierge for eight years. They are extremely competent and reliable, they love dogs, they send me funny messages about my dog’s antics on their walks, and they are hands down the best pet sitting service I’ve ever used. Thank you to Lauren, Dena, Kat, Sydney, Sara and the crew. You rock.
Lauren and her team are excellent! I bring my pup to daycare and she absolutely loves it and comes home tired! I trust Lauren 100% with my baby!!
We have just started initial contact with Canine Concierge, and have not had an actual sitting yet. So far we are very pleased with the attention and care given to us for our first experience. If this is any indication of thier service then I am sure this will also be the same care given to our pet. We look forward to working with them in the future for our pet care needs.
I am so happy I found this amazing business! I was extremely anxious about having strangers come walk my dog, but what a great group of people they have! Max loves all the girls that come and walk him, I always receive pictures and a full report on how the day went :) not to mention the prices are extremely reasonable in comparison to others I have researched!
I’ve been looking for a dog daycare/play locally. Was totally impressed just walking in for our evaluation. Staff was so friendly and amazing with my Walter butters (pit mix)! Anthony explained everything to me in regards to their policies, costs and Most important the safety of the dogs health! We are starting on Monday and I’m so looking forward to My Walter having fun play dates!
Love this place and the people that staff it😀they always accommodate me when I need it. My pups: Steff, Jazz, and Brownie are a handful and vocal but no matter how crazy or loud, I know they’re in the best hands other than mine. If you are contemplating boarding, board here. You’ll be thrilled by your decision. …
I boarded my dog at Hounds Town in Fairfield for 3 nights, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! The staff was so warm and welcoming, which immediately put me at ease. They took excellent care of my sweet boy, and I loved the daily updates and photos they provided. My dog came back happy, well-rested, and clearly enjoyed his time there. The facility is clean, and I appreciate that the dogs get plenty of playtime and attention. I will definitely be using Hounds Town again for future boarding and highly recommend them to any pet owner looking for a reliable and caring place!
From the initial phone call to the first visit. The staff is super friendly and you could genuinely feel they truly care about your pup. They are open and honest with you about your pup’s experiences and how they get along with other dogs. I was initially hesitant about bringing my pup here as she is less than a year old but she fit right in. The facility is a cute facility for dogs and I like the fact that the dogs play mostly all day and when I pick her up she comes home super tired out from a fun exciting day. Prices are reasonable compared to other places and the place is not like a dog prison like other places but a big beautiful playground
Anthony was so kind. I didn’t have an appointment and I was asking for A LOT and he made it happen same day and I was able to move into my new place without any stress over my dogs care. 10/10
Everyone was very nice and treated your dog as if it was their own. It was very clean and our Luna seemed to enjoy her stay there. They post daily pictures so you can see how your dog is doing. Thank you Hounds Town for making Luna’s stay with you a good one.
Great, friendly staff who clearly love dogs! Our hound had a great time playing with the other dogs and he got a bath as well as teeth brushing and nails clipped! Very happy with Hounds Town, and we will be back!
We love this place. We started our pup there as soon as they opened. We were looking for a fun doggie day care for our very rambunctious St Berdoodle. We have used them for boarding and pampering and I have zero complaints! The people that work there truly have love for these pups. They’re all wonderful, super nice and welcoming. Highly recommend them for all your pups needs. Note for the picture - this was a pic at day care then his post pamper portrait. This was the deluxe townie bath. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As a first timer, Hound Town Fairfield NJ was right on time. Secure, Friendly, Clean atmosphere. Rosie & Dennis were Comforting. Ensuring my baby Nico would be safe and have a Fun-Time.
Brewster had so much fun during his first day at Hounds Town! When I picked him up he was so happy. They posted so many pictures and videos of the dogs playing on their Facebook page.
Jen was amazing with my Poppa. She fed him and gave him a blanket to sleep with (even though he didn’t). She also updated me throughout the day with the cutest pictures and videos of my dog which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again
Jen was very helpful through out the entire process with taking car of my dog Milo. She provided me with video and pictures of Milo to assure me that he is okay and in good hands!! That was a big plus for me since Milo is a big part of our family. I would highly recommend her to friends and family. I will be using her in the future again
Jen groomed both of my 2 year-old Cane Corsos today… they are fairly high energy and she was alone… I was a bit anxious over it but knowing she takes care of my best friend’s dog, I chilled out… and it was ALL worth it because my babies were good and came out of her place calm and clean and nails clipped and that is something that is NOT easy to do! I’d go back a million times over! My two are camera shy but I have pics of them not from today… Caspia is on the left and Roman is on the right ♥️♥️
I reached out to Jen’s Pet Care to have someone check in on our cat. Jen stopped by twice a day to change litter, fill the water bowl, and give insulin shots twice per day. She sent me pics of our cat each time she visited which was really nice. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again around Christmas time.
Jen is fantastic! Seamus loved her from the first minute he met her? I have varying hours and I can always depend on her to take great care of my dog I can’t say enough great things
Jen is great! She’ll update you with pictures, she’s very responsive and patient when it comes to any questions you have, my 135 pound Rottweiler Phoenix did great with her and he’s not normally good with strangers. I left him with her overnight as a last minute plan and she thankfully accommodated for me when it came to drop off/pick up times. I’m so glad I gave her services a chance, & I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again :)
Jen provides a wonderful service - we used her dog walking services and she always came in the time frame promised and sent photos of the dogs being walked. She is kind and caring- highly recommend!
Our dog Bailey loves Jen. Our experience with Jen has been exceptional. She is flexible, very responsive and reliable.
I used Jen’s pet sitting service for a 4th of July trip. It was such a relief to know my two cats and fish were well taken care of while I was away. She was incredibly responsive, sent twice daily pics of my cats, and followed my feeding and playtime instructions. I’ll definitely be using Jen’s service in the future and I highly recommend!!
Had a great experience leaving my cat with Jen for a little over a week. Got daily updates and my cat was well taken care of. If you are looking for a cat sitter or boarding service I highly reccomend Jen.
They really are the Furry Best! Our dog, Daffy, absolutely loves Adrian which is obviously the most important thing when considering a pet care service. However, the advantages are endless: photos every time he goes out which never fail to make us smile (I've shared some here that Adrian has taken for us). Rapid responses and amazing short timeframe flexibility for when we're in the in the city but want to make sure Daffy is walked and taken care of. The extra effort to provide Daffy with variety, not just to the same place or the same route every day. Adrian really knows Daffy as an individual dog and for us the knowledge that we have a reliable, confident and caring individual to help with Daffy is priceless.
I’ve been on the search for a reliable dog walking company and this is it! They’re the best for my fur-babies. I’ve tried other dog walking services but doesn’t compare to the furry best pet care. Marisa and Drayton are amazing and go above and beyond for our dogs. We had an incident where one of our dogs needed a last minute bath and they were able to squeeze us in. Once I got home my pup was nicely groomed and smelled so good! I can totally trust them with our dogs and know they’ll be in the absolute best care. I’m so happy a service like this is available in my building!
The Furry Best is an awesome service! Drayton is super responsive and flexible with last minute walks. He is great with dogs and knows how to pair your dog with others so they get some much needed play time. All walks are tracked and you receive lots of pictures and feedback when the walk is finished. I highly recommend The Furry Best!
I had the best experience with Furry Best pet care this past weekend! They took incredible care of our cat Charlotte while we were away on vacation. Their in-house boarding services are very helpful and convenient as they will visit your pet and take of them in the comfort of their home. They took such incredible detailed care of our girl - making sure to feed, play and spend time with her (our cat is a more social cat who demands a lot more attention/time/play). It was so great having Marisa + Drayton care so much for her and enjoy time with her. The updates and messages from the online portal are amazing because you receive photos as well as reports on how your pet is doing.HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone who is looking for trustworthy and caring people to watch after your furbabies. Five stars! :)
The furry best pet care is amazing! We got our puppy at 8 weeks, and with both of us working full time we needed someone to feed and play with him during the day. From the start they have accommodated our puppy’s needs by combining services and providing excellent care. We love getting the walk summaries, and our pup absolutely loves the team… They’ve also helped with training our puppy. Not only do they work one-on-one with him, but guided us on how to continue and progress the training. We learned so much from the first session alone! I don’t know what we would do without the Furry Best team! Highly recommended for anyone with a pup needing extra company or training.
I highly recommend furry best pet care ! We have been using their dog walking services from past few months...My dog always does a happy dance whenever Adrian comes or he sees him from far :) The dog walking services with furry best care is prompt, reliable, trustworthy and we always get all updates on the walk status. I haven’t used boarding services yet but will definitely plan to use it on our next trip !
Honestly the best dog walking service out there! Adrien is SO GREAT with our dog Mica... every time she sees him (even when we see him out and about with other dogs) she gets so excited! It’s like she’s got a new best friend. It’s so rare to find someone who will care for your dog like it’s there own but best furry pet care really goes that extra mile. I often have to schedule last minute walks and never has there been an issue with availability or communication. I know Mica is always safe and cared for in their hands. Also, the rates are more than fair for the exceptional service and care your pet receives. I’ve also found that Mica’s walks and play time with other pups have made her more socialized and well behaved around other animals and that’s all thanks to Best Furry Pet Care and Adrien. You’d be crazy not to try them out!
All I can say is we're very grateful for Furry Best. Natalia is more than what we could ask for as a dog walker. She comes every noon to get Sparky, then they walk around the block, and even before she leaves our house, Natalia will give Sparky a hug, belly rubs him and assures that he's loved even for a short time. We're professionals who work long hours and having Furry Best, especially Natalia, visit Sparky and potty him is what we needed. She's a huge help and we just can't thank her enough for catering Sparky. If you need a dog walker, I definitely recommend furry best! They're amazing and the communication is never in question. They will answer when you message them, Natalia always does. She updates us about their walks, leaves food for Sparky and water to make sure he's good for the day while waiting for us. Furry best, thank you! Natalia, you're amazing! Thank you thank you thank you!!
The Furry Best Pet Care is truly the furry best. It's really easy to schedule an appointment and the dog walk recaps are super helpful to see where they went and if they "went". Dray and Marisa are great with the dogs and treat them like their own. Highly recommended.
The team watching and caring for my pups is thoughtful, understanding and caring. I would recommend any of there services to anyone considering The Furry Best Pet Care. They have been consistent and when emergencies have come up, I was impressed by there professionalism and compassion. My pups are an extension of my family and I would allow The Furry Best Pet Care to watch over my family (pups) without hesitation!
