"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
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.
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!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn! I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20. She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person. She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well. My cats took to her quickly. When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before. While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc. She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose. I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!
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 :)
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.
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
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, $20/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 met Tim back around 2002. After using 2 other pet sitting services that lied & put our pets at serious risk...They said they were at our place ,but they both lied. That's when I did a extensive search for a new pet sitter. We found Summit Pet Sitting , we met with Tim & looked over his all his referrals & found them to be terrific ... One of my cats was Diabetic & Tim is totally trained in giving injections. Both our cats were loving cats .Merlin was a dog in a cats body. Sheba was a bit more of a one person cat, but in time Tim was able to gain her trust. If we asked Tim to call or other certain requests he was awesome. He is loyal, trustworthy & caring person. I can not endorse Tim & Summit Pet Sitting enough.
Tim has been caring for our dogs and fish in our home for the past 7 years. We are now moving out of state and literally the worst part about leaving is that we will no longer have Tim around to take care of our animals (we tried to convince him to go with us but he politely declined). We found Tim 7 years ago after a bad experience with a previous pet sitter. Before we found Tim, we had been ready to cancel a trip because we were no longer comfortable leaving our dogs with the pet sitter we had been using. We found Tim, called his (glowing) references, had him over to meet our animals, and we hired him at the last minute. Since then, he has probably stayed at our house at least 25 times over the years. We have had our dogs stay at his house several times as well. Tim is very flexible and accommodating. Our dogs love him. He probably takes better care of them than we do. We never worry at all anymore when we have to travel because we know they are in very good hands. We would 1000% recommend him to anyone who is looking for the absolute best care for their fur-kids!
Tim has been our dog-sitter for the past few years and he has consistently provided us with reliable service. Most recently, Tim watched our dogs during our honeymoon. He noticed one of our dogs had a foot infection and took her to the vet after consulting us. We are grateful his attentiveness to our dogs' well-being led to a speedy recovery. He writes daily reports on our dogs' activities and also takes care of your mail/plants/others as needed. In addition, our dogs love seeing Tim whenever he walks into the apartment -- this gives us a tremendous peace of mind when we have to leave them home. We highly recommend Tim for pet-sitting services.
Timothy Smith is the owner of Summit Pet Sitting. He has been walking our Lhasa Apso "Lexi " three mornings a week for nearly three years. During that stretch he has never missed an appointment. On the rare occasion he can't make it he finds a substitute walker so our service is uninterrupted. You cannot find reliability like that anywhere! Besides his dependability, Timothy is very trustworthy. He has had a key to our home for the duration of the relationship. He can be counted on to let himself into the house, leash & walk our dog, responsibly dispose of the poop, fill the food & water dishes, and lock the door on the way out. In the beginning Tim made sure the dog was comfortable with him. It didn't take long for Lexi to warm up to him and now she looks forward to seeing him! Timothy also will administer medications to Lexi whenever necessary such as the time she had an ear infection and needed ointment applied. He also reports anything unusual like the time Lexi had a urinary tract infection. He noticed blood in her urine and texted a picture to me right away so we could bring her to the vet ASAP. We also board our dog with Tim whenever we travel. He will bring Lexi to his house and care for her like she is his own pet. In addition to his top notch service, Timothy is very reasonably priced. He provides excellent value but most importantly he puts our minds at ease knowing Lexi is in safe hands. He also seamlessly handled a few instances where we had a second dog at our house and treated that dog exactly the same as Lexi at no additional cost. I highly recommend Summit Pet Sitting for all your pet needs!
Tim is awesome. We have 3 hounds, Cora, Mojo and Bennie. They loved being cared by him. He sends pictures and truly cares about his guests. We have used him twice and were extremely satisfied. When we mention his name the tails begin to wag profusely. My wife and I get jealous. Highly recommend this company. Safe, reliable, dependable and affordable pet care.
Summit Pet Sitting is the best. Tim gets my dog. She is an older dog and can get stubborn and cranky. Tim still gets her to walk and play and makes sure she is cared for and safe. He also gives her her medications and never charges extra fees like the kennels do. I could not recommend him more highly. I can go on vacation with total peace of mind.
Tim has always been great with our dogs, and you can tell from the very first encounter that he is an animal person through and through. We always know that boarding with him is their home away from home, and can’t recommend his services enough!
Dealing with Tim is fantastic! Tim took care of our lab "Sarge" for a few days while we were on vacation and we didn't worry once about his care. We would receive daily updates and picture/videos of him hanging out and during playtime. It was a great experience dealing with Summit Pet Sitting.
We have a 3 year old Boxer mix named Koda who is a rescue. She is incredibly wary and fearful of strangers and loudly announces her feelings. We are trying to work on this with her but we still have a ways to go! We recently got married and on that weekend, lost our trusted dog sitter as they were also at the wedding. We got a recommendation from a good friend of ours who is also a local town’s Animal Control Officer. We highly value her opinion as she is working with dogs like Koda daily and if she vouches for someone, it’s for a reason. We spoke with Tim and right away knew that we liked him, but he wanted to be sure that KODA would like HIM. We set up a meeting and Tim came over for an hour to introduce himself to Koda and see how things went. She was initially wary, as she always is, but Tim’s warm nature and experience with difficult dogs showed immediately as Koda very quickly warmed up to him. His knowledge of dog behavior and confidence with reactive dogs made the whole meeting process go smoothly and we were ready to proceed. Tim was willing to watch Koda in his home as we felt like that would be the best option for her. He set up another meeting with us to make sure that that Koda would be receptive to staying at his house and would get along with his dog Rose. Upon arrival at his house, Koda immediately recognized him and leapt in his lap, licking his face! The weekend he watched her went off without a hitch and Tim sent update messages and pictures to keep our mind at ease. All in all, we HIGHLY recommend Tim to anyone needing a dog sitter, be it for a super friendly dog or for one with special requirements like ours. We are incredibly thankful to have found Tim and are thrilled to have found our new dog sitter for the future!
Mr. Smith is a great person to do business with. I have passed him some of my clients. He answers calls, keeps in touch and most importantly...loves your animals as much as you do. He truly goes above and beyond what your needs are. Great work sir I will be sending you more clients soon.
We first brought our 2 dogs in for daycare for a few weeks prior to boarding to get them used to the kennel and new people. I'm glad I found you guys and felt we made the right decision for the boys. I trust Markover over anyone to watch my dogs and have referred others to them. Everything was clean, spacious for doggies to run around and great staff and family that make things run smooth and put myself at ease. We will definitely be back!!
We brought our 7-year-old rescue to Markover for training. It was a wonderful experience. He now walks quietly at my side without lunging at others on the street. It was a pleasure to work with Joe, the trainer. He answered all my questions both before and after the training and was most patient as he trained ME!
We have gone to Markover 3-4 times with my baby Rosie. Today she had a spa date with Michelle the groomer, who is just marvelous with our little girl! I highly recommend this place!!♥️
No matter where I'm living, when I get another dog she will come to Markover for training. Joe did a phenomenal job teaching Nellie how to be the best pet and bird dog. Nellie was the WILDEST child with hints of loyalty, but a HUGE prey drive and therefore flight risk. I didn't want to send her to training for the fear of missing her too much but it ended up being the best decision ever. I get compliments on her obedience on almost every walk/run we take. If you're considering a board and train do it! Your dog will have a blast here. Nellie is always thrilled to be back at the preserve (and you know it's a good place when they encourage dogs on the couch - see photo attached)
We have a very shy dog, pitbull mix. She had only been in a kennel 3 other xs., but that kennel closed. When u have a shy, timid dog it's difficult to find a kennel that u feel confident in. Markover was the best choice! We brought her once for a grooming and she did great, even with hearing dogs barking. It's easy to tell if people are dog lovers, and the owner and staff are absolutely dog lovers! They let our dog come to them, and she actually did!! Dogs are very perspective, so this was a positive for us. If a dog doesn't eat, they cook chicken and rice to add to their food. They take them for walks, and when we came to pick her up, she was out for her ( morning walk ) with one of the staff. All this is explained to us prior to leaving her. And they gave us a report as to how she did. I can't say enough positive things about Mark over kennels, and would highly recommend them. Thank you again Dave and Sue
Boarded my lab Archie there in the spring for boarding and gundog training. Justin and the crew were awesome. Personalized communication, spotless facility and beautiful grounds. Five stars
Cady Falls Grooming at Markover Kennels If you are looking for a groomer that is not only excellent at listening to how you want your family pet groomed but most importantly cares for your pet like it was part of her own family - then Cathy is the right groomer for you. Our MalShi, Dusty, was never a happy camper when he sensed he was going in for a grooming, but all that changed with Cathy and we are thankful for that. We travel extensively, and we would have to take him to different groomers - but not after Cathy - Now we wait to get back to CT to take him to Cathy. Shr has been grooming Dusty for several years. She is also a breeder of award winning dogs and we think that training has helped to make her the caring groomer she is. The new facilities are spotless, and state of the art - so aside of knowing your dog is in good hands with Cathy - you and your dog are in a great facility. While I wish they would set up a second shop in Glastonbury, CT - For now, she and the new facility are worth the trip. Not sure their address is in this listing, so just in case - it is 699 Cook Hill Road, Danielson, CT
For boarding -Heated cement indoor/outdoor area but they provide raised hammock beds for the dogs. On site there is also grooming and training. One stop shopping which is wonderful. Really nice people.
We’ve locally boarded our German Shepherd, Luca, for several years with ZERO satisfaction from another kennel. After some research, my wife came across Markover Kennels that came with high reviews. Initially, we had Luca groomed at Markover back in May with Cathy. Luca responded very positively, where he looked happy and handsome! Most recently, we decided to board Luca at Markover Kennels for 8 days while on a family summer vacation….REMARKABLE! Justin and his staff gave Luca tons of attention and walks. Above all, the communication was second to none! Thank you, Justin and staff. WE WILL BE BACK! Sincerely, Scott + Amy
Committed team. The entire staff knew my puppy’s name when I dropped him off and he was happy, healthy and in a good mental state when i picked him him up. I’ll definitely board my pup here again, It’s worth the 80 mile drive each way to know my dog is happy and taken care off.
I was SO happy with my pups services! She looked SO cuuute & clean! She’s 4 months, her first grooming - so I’m sure it wasn’t easy, they did a great job & she seemed to have been so comfortable & happy with their team. I will definitely be using them for all their services again! Highly recommend!
Great people. They took care of my cat with no issues. Everyone was so friendly and inviting.
Thank you for taking care of Bellini for the last minute extented stay ! So nice to know we can depend on Morningstar !
The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. Maverick comes home nice and tired out and always eager to go.
As a fur momma to a young skittish rescue pup and a first time user of a kennel, I had a lot of questions and nervousness. Morning Star immediately put me at ease. They kindly answered all of my questions, explained their daily routine and assured me my dog would be well care for. Morning Star patiently helped her overcome the initial anxiety, then eased her into the social groups to play and make friends. After 8 days I returned to a very happy, groomed and tired-in-a-good-way pup! I would recommend Morning Star to anyone looking for a safe, loving, home environment for their dogs that will ease your mind while you are away.
Lily loves her time at the pet resort. Everyone is very caring and I have no concerns leaving her there when I am away and can't have her with me. They do a wonderful job grooming as well.
Hello, My dog stayed at Morning Star Farm for the second time this past August and the staff were great. The resort and farm are a wonderful place for a dog if your dog is the type that would like a farm and has a lot of energy. The fact that this may be the first review I have written in years should speak volumes. Don’t hesitate to book-you won’t regret it and the break from your dog is nice one in a while! In closing we were very pleased and will use Morning Star again in the future!
Absolutely wonderful staff my 3.5 month old puppy was a rockstar and she loved playing with everyone. I can’t say enough about the care she got
Stephanie did a great job introducing me to the facility and procedures. I have only left our pup there one day but I was pleased with everything. Bella a happy but tired pup when I picked her up.
Buxters recently took care of our two kitties (Pumpkin and Lola). Auntie Jay was amazing!!!! She followed all care instructions and even spent extra time with them each day to play. She also sent updates and photos every day. We can’t wait to use her again in the future.
Five stars for Buxter's Paw on all counts! Aunty Jay visited the house ahead of time and was totally prepared and professional with all plans and paperwork. Shy cat walked right up and made friends. While I was away, she sent daily pix and updates. She had both cats (who usually would be under the bed) out and interacting -- miraculous! When I returned, kitties were happy, and everything was neat as a pin. Aunty Jay even washed the food bowls for me, which was above and beyond. Excellent communication about the schedule. Most important: animals trust her. I recommend without reservation!
We couldn't be happier with Buxter's pet sitting service! Aunti J was absolutely amazing with our African Grey parrot, providing exceptional care and attention. Aunti J made us feel completely reassured and safe while we were traveling, knowing our feathered friend was in the best hands. We highly recommend her service and will definitely be using it again in the future!
I had an exceptional experience with Auntie Jay’s pet sitting service, especially with her expertise in birds. My ring neck parakeet, Kia, had a delightful time and even learned to say ‘peekaboo’ within two weeks! Auntie Jay’s patience and attentive care, including daily photo updates, made me feel like Kia was treated as part of her family. I am immensely grateful and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend her services to other pet owners!
Great work with my 2 dogs She when above n beyond for their care. She not only took care of them she also followed up with me to check of them n kept an open communication with me and help me with some off the allergies that I was dealing with them. N I made the change it n now there are find Luv her services
I feel so lucky to have found Aunty Jay pet sitting services, I felt at ease having my baby stay with her while I was away overseas, she took care of my pet just like if she was his owner! I’m very thankful for the great care she provided to my pet, She’s very caring, sweet and very knowledgeable ! She’s amazing ! I recommend her 100% ! ❤️
Aunty Jay is a delight to work with. My cats adore her. She gives me peace of mind whenever I'm out of town. Highly recommend. Very trustworthy.
I have been using her services now for several years. And in my 40 years of pet ownership I have never found anyone more trustworthy or reliable. She has watched my pets for weeks on end, at my home or at hers. She has been their walker. She has taken them to vet appointments. She was even there with me when one of them passed. I could not recommend her more highly.
Aunty Jay did a great job taking care of my free roam rabbit. She was extremely professional checking in on my rabbit while I was away and making sure I knew my pet was cared for! Highly recommend to pet parents who are looking for a pet sitter that will love their pet as their own!
Outstanding experience, easy communication, extremely professional, complete peace of mind while we were away. Would highly recommend Aunty Jay to anyone, she is fantastic!
Shelly and CatLover Pet Sitting have been watching my pets in my home for 8 years. She is reliable and has an amazing love of animals. Also, with her nursing background I know my pets have the best care and she has been able to provide specialty care for my older cats as needed. I would recommend her services to anyone who needed a pet care for in any fashion.
I must say that I feel such a sense of comfort when Catlover takes care of my pets. She has a medical background. She is kind and caring and her home is most welcoming. I cannot thank you enough.
She took great care of my puppy while I was gone too much for a job.
My dog, Smokey, is a frequent daycare flyer. He averages a visit about once a week. Smokey LOVES going to The Country Mutt. He becomes very excited to get to daycare as we get closer to the facility. After daycare, Smokey is exhausted and tuckered out. Michelle and her team are extremely knowledgeable and professional. They send home report cards and post highlight videos on Facebook that are always fun to watch. The facility is extremely well maintained. Smokey and I just finished their “Train & Drain” series for properly walking on a leash. With Michelle’s help, Smokey’s leash skills have improved drastically. We ❤️ The Country Mutt and highly recommend it!
We’ve been boarding at The Country Mutt for three years after being referred by a friend. I am very satisfied with the communication from Michelle and her staff. I love the fact that my pup is kept engaged, exercised and entertained throughout his stay. Highly recommend!
Fantastic clean facility with great staff. They care about the dogs and have a huge area to play unlike many daycare facilities we have boarded our dogs. Owner Michelle is great and the pups report cards were great. Looking forward to booking our family's next vacation and leaving our pups with The Country Mutt. P. S. They came back exhausted and happy. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Thanks!
We're so happy that we found The Country Mutt. Our dog loves being there; he's really social and likes nothing better than running around outside with his pals (and, of course, lounging in the wading pool!). We bring him there for both daycare and boarding, and know that he's getting wonderful care and is having a great time. There are a lot of good kennels closer to us, but I'm willing to drive an hour and ten minutes round trip so our dog can go to The Country Mutt. Michelle is the best - she sets a high bar when it comes to the dogs' welfare and overall safety, and I'm so grateful for the TLC he gets when he's there.
Michelle, Alex and staff are absolutely amazing, best in the business in my opinion! We always feel comfortable when we board with them, there are never any concerns about safety or care that is being provided. The farm hangover after a full day of playing is a huge plus as well! We have been going to Michelle since almost the beginning of her business and have never considered going anywhere else--Michelle is the dog whisperer 😊 I highly recommend The Country Mutt Llc for daycare and boarding.
During COVID, my wife and I decided to get our first dog – Tennessee Whiskey. Neither of us have had a dog before, and we were woefully unprepared. Luckily, we found Michelle at Country Mutt. In the past few years, Michelle has helped us with all aspects of care and training of our dog. Michelle helped us with crate training, behavior adjustments, and with the gentle leader. We regularly use the daily enrichment program and appreciate that Tennessee Whiskey has a huge play area and within a well-controlled play group. Tennessee Whiskey comes home happy and ‘dog-tired’. We use the boarding, and as our dog is familiar with the facilities and staff it makes the whole experience much less stressful for owners and dog. We cannot recommend Country Mutt enough.
Michelle and the whole staff at The County Mutt are amazing , caring , well educated and overall just a wonderful place to leave my dog for the day !!!! The play area is clean and well staffed to keep all the dogs safe . My Waffle loves going there and I’m so comfortable leaving Waffle there , I would highly recommend this wonderful establishment to anyone looking for doggie daycare
PAWSOME!!! We boarded our two dogs with The Country Mutt for 15 days this summer. I swear when we went to pick them up they were sad to leave. What an amazing and enriching adventure they had. Lots of playtime, enrichment activities, farm walks and exercise. Michelle, George,Crystal and the whole staff at The Country Mutt all made our puppers feel at home and loved. I cannot say enough about the care and attention that they provided. Just knowing they were so well looked after made our vacation that much more enjoyable. Five stars is not enough! Wish there were more stars to give! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am admittedly, a nervous mom of a 7 month old St. Bernard. He is my pride and joy. Michelle at Country Mutt made me and Hank feel at home and welcome. Hank has met many new friends and has had wonderful experiences with the staff at Country Mutt! Not only do I recommend them but I consider them family when they love and treat my Hank with so much love and care
Kelsey & Jackson have been going to The Country Mutt since they were pups, so for several years now. I can truly say that taking them to The Farm once/wk for doggie daycare has been one of the best things I've done for them. As we drive up the road approaching The Farm, K&J get excited; they really do seem to know that they're going to their favorite place, to spend time with their pup friends, as well as some of their favorite human friends, as The Mutt team is fabulous! Truly fabulous! Michelle, Crystal, George & Alex really care about all of the dogs under their watch. The feeling is genuine...These people are genuine!! The team is invested in providing a safe, clean, caring and enriching environment; they're not babysitting, as I'm guessing is the case @ many daycares. If I could give 10++++++ stars? I seriously would do so as I cannot thank Michelle and team enough for what they have done for Kelsey & Jackson, as well as for me! Love you guys!!!
Steph is the best! I trust her 100% with my fury little guy. All ears is reliable and the prices are very reasonable. I have continued to use All Ears services and will continue to refer them to anyone in need of a walker/sitter in the area. I strongly value trusting that my dog is in good hands when I need someone to help me with a walk, or if I am out of town for work.
Steph is the BEST. We worked with her for about four years and couldn't have asked for a better dog walker.
Steph is amazing!!! Extremely kind to people and dogs. Highly recommend!!!!
I can't say enough about the care my cat Jack received while I was away for a week. Lynn is the best, and she really cares! Love this place and I highly recommend!
If you are looking for an immaculate home away from home for your pets, this is it ! Lynn in an amazing person who loves what she does and loves your pets as her own. I never worry about my pets when I am away. Everything is so clean. The kennel floors are radiant heat as well. She also looks after rabbits and guinea pigs ! 1000% recommend!
We went for a meet and greet with our cooper today and was so amazed at how clean and organized it is. We can't wait to be able to go away and not have to worry about bringing our dog here. Lynn was great to talk to and we're thankful that she's there 24/7.
Pettery Paradise was recommended to me by a family member who has boarded their dogs here before. My two huskies have stayed here several times (ranging from a long weekend to about two weeks), and every time has been completely worry free. Lynn and her staff are very organized and thorough, and truly make you and your pets feel comfortable. It's like magic how well my hyper huskies listen and behave when they stay here! You can really tell all of the staff is passionate about caring for animals. The prices are very reasonable, comparable to most other big commercialized kennels. I love that this kennel is on private property, so there's almost always someone around, and the facility is very organized and CLEAN! There are heated floors and solid walls to separate each kennel while the dogs are not supervised. The dogs can be kept separate or brought into one of the large fenced play areas while outside. Lynn even keeps peanut butter filled Kong treats on hand for play time! I can't say enough great things about Pettery Paradise and I would highly recommend this kennel to everyone looking for pet boarding or daycare!
This is the BEST kennel I have ever used! Lynn is wonderful and really cares for her pets. I won’t leave my dog anywhere else but with her! My dog comes home happy and well cared for!
My dog little Yorkie Natasha has been there many times. She has stayed for several days to weeks as needed. She loves Lynn and loves to go there. I hate leaving my dog but I don't worry when she is there.
I love this place! The owner Lynn takes so well care of our dog Zelda and Zelda is always looking very happy in the photos! I would recommend this place to anyone who is needing someone to watch their dogs!
Lynn has been taking care of my dogs for years . They are always well cared for and happy.
Highly recommended. Lyn and her Husband are great
Clean, professional, personable, and they really care about your dogs.
Pennie’s Homestead is an absolute gem! They took great care of our dog Luke Skybarker while we went on our honeymoon for 10 days. He was pampered the entire time and communication daily was greatly appreciated. You can tell that Pennie cares about animals and that she went above and beyond to take care of my family member while I was gone. We will definitely contact her in the future if we need Luke to be taken care of. As mentioned in another review for Pennie, your dog will be at a resort while in Pennies care.
We could not be happier with the care that our cat and African grey parrot received. We were rather last minute looking for pet care and Pennie made everything work out for us. We would highly recommend Pennie and her staff for home pet care. We will definitely use their services again.
Pennie and Michele were great! Michele took excellent care of my senior Chihuahua as well as my home while I was away. I came home to a perfectly clean home and a happy doggie. I knew she was in good hands, with frequent communications and pictures sent my way. I will be sure to use them again for my next trip! Thanks for everything.
Pennie's Homestead is THE most WONDERFUL pet sitter service EVER!!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job and her furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. Our rescue, Dolly, was definitely not a candidate for kennel boarding due to her separation anxiety and we were so hesitant to schedule a vacation away. And then we had the good fortune to meet Pennie!! She instantly bonded with Dolly and we knew we could enjoy our trip knowing Dolly would be given the best of care and would be safe at home. There is a thorough interview before she takes the job and everything is covered to ensure the best quality care will be given to your pet(s) and I ASSURE YOU you it is given. We were sent daily updates and happy photos by text which was such a comfort and so appreciated. Not only was Dolly given the best of care, but also the house was in pristine condition when we got home. All I can say is WOW, we are so totally impressed! I need never look for any other pet sitter ever again as we have truly found the VERY BEST!!!! ***** Five Stars Plus … :)
Penny went above and beyond for our two dogs i would recommend her to anyone . We got updates and pictures everyday definitely will use her again !!
Pennie is a very professional and trustworthy petsitter. We were away for a week and received daily photos and updates on the dogs, and my house was well cared for upon return. She loves her job and it shows!
If you think you're leaving your dog behind with a "pet sitter" while you have a fantastic vacation - you are most mistaken! Your vacation may be OK or good, but it's not going to compare to the vacation your four-legged family member will have! Pennie is like an animal whisperer. Her own dogs and cats are incredible hosts. And, you can stay in a 5-star resort on your vacation - but your pet is going to have it even better! Gorgeous farm with acres if not miles to run and play with his/her new hosts, pond for swimming, swimming pool for chilling, steak for dinner (yes, I'm not kidding!) and more love than you could ever hope. We're spoiled. We don't live anywhere close to Stonington/Mystic CT and we're already trying to find a way to get Beau back to Pennie's Homestead the next time we have to take a trip. Just know, you'll be jealous of your dog when your trip is over.
Pennie is a fantastic dog sitter! She (and her adorable sidekick Granger) connected with our dog instantly and he had the best time with her. We got regular photos and updates of how happy our dog was, and he loved being outside and playing with other friendly dogs every day! We can’t wait to have him stay with Pennie again!
Pennie was recommended by our vet. Our 20 year old cat is hard to leave because she is fussy! If she does not eat or drink water,her health can tank quickly as she is only 6 lbs. We used Pennie on 2 occasions now,and we could not be more delighted!!! Attentive,reliable and compassionate. She cared for our kitty and sent pictures of her eating and drinking. Our cat LOVES her. She is highly recommended!
Pennie (and her dog Grainger) are the best. We planned a last minute trip and Pennie changed her schedule to accommodate us. Our dog Buoy had a blast and came home exhausted from racing around with Grainger! Best of all, I slept well knowing Buoy was in safe hands. They’re the best.
