Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
Kira was the best sitter we have ever had! I chose Kira because of her reviews, ability to sit during the dates I needed and willingness to communicate with my daughter/neighbor who co-parents Colby with us. I am always a bit anxious about having someone in my home and trusting them with our fluffy son. Kira put us at ease almost immediately. I received photos and videos everyday throughout the stay. I got updates on Colby’s activity and the fun they were having together. My heart felt full knowing that Colby was being well loved and cared for. Additionally, Kira was so kind to keep us posted on any deliveries that arrived at the house. Finally, when I arrived home, the house was tidy and clean! Again, I am so grateful that Kira was there keeping the house and my cat safe! I hope she will come back and sit again. I know Colby would love to see her again.
Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
If I could leave a zero I would! A half hour before going to pick our dogs up we get a call asking if we wanted to get the dogs a bath at a an additional charge because they’re a little stinky from being in the kennel. I declined saying how stinky could they be just being around other dogs? It’s OK.. What? When we get to the kennel, we help the lady since she was the only one there to go retrieve our dogs from the KENNELS we have four Yorkies. Upon approaching their kennels, I can see now why they were stinky. There was poop in their cage that they had stepped in and was left there. We gave her a bag of pee pads that she didn’t use one pee pad in four days she gave us a brand new pack of pads back., that means the poor puppies held their bowels and their pee all day because they didn’t want to pee or poop in their cage until they absolutely had to. They’re used to pee pads. That’s why we gave them to them.. yes I prepackaged their ham that we give for them all the time and I got back more ham than I should’ve, soon as we got home, all they wanted to do was eat all day and they were dehydrated. I would be appalled and embarrassed to give somebody back their dogs like that. We drove home with poop in their paws and bathed them each three times when we got home.. we paid 713.00 dollars for them to be treated like that?? I’m not looking for a refund in any way I just want others to choose wisely when choosing so send your puppies somewhere. How I give you our puppies is how I accept them back to me. I wish I took photos when I was there. I’d rather not go on vacation then send them back there. Thank you kindly for reading
Springbrook Kennels always takes good care of Buddy. We have used them for over 15 years with two golden retrievers. I think that Buddy likes going there.
Inconvenient to be called the day prior to checking in my pets to have my prebooked desired arrangement changed to accommodate dlsomeone elses last minute booking. Then to be texted under an hour before dropping off with conflicting information causing me to reach out and confirm with my vet that things were exactly as they should be with shots. Overlooked that situation and kept arrangement. Dropped off with everything labeled and bagged individually, also Instructed regarding all details needed verbally with nods of understanding. Got calls on the following da with confusion needing clarity because information was not communicated properly. (They did apologize but it was a distraction while in transit traveling. ) received a call on pick up day 45 mins before pickup to confirm, provided information regarding running 15-20 mins late due to traffic from weather and told "it was fine to take my time". Being under 5 mins from pickup received a string of texts saying they were leaving in 10 mins and would be charged additional to pick up later (I was in by the time I advised in call so again not communicated or handled as prior acknowledged. We had our pups in 1 time prior and had a reasonable outcome but after this time a lot was left to be desired and we are considering alternatives. Paying for this sort of service should provide a peace of mind on the well-being of our pets and with the outward interactions it really raises concerns on how our pets ate truly cared for.
Excellent kennel. They provide such great care for my 2 pups! Highly recommend!
COVERED IN POOP WHEN I PICKED UP! I have been taking our dog to Springbrook Kennels for longer vacations for years and have always had a fine experience there. Our pup always seemed happy when I picked him up and it was fine. Today I picked him up on our scheduled pick up day after being there for five days and he has feces all over him. I didn’t see it until he jumped up into the back of the car. I asked the girl who brought him out if it was poop all over him and instead of being like “oh my let me take him back and wash some of that off before he destroys your car” she simply looked at me and said “yea sorry” and then walked away. If that’s your strategy to upsell for a bath on the day of pick up you missed the mark and a customer. We will not be returning, very disappointed. I understand that dogs get messy and don’t expect him to be cleaner than when I dropped him off. If a customer is scheduled to pick up that day, make some kind of effort to clean them up before they go home and return them in the same shape they came in.
Simon was well taken care of during his stay. I left instructions he needed to be brushed everyday and he was as asked.
They always have openings for my 4 dogs (Chihuahua, Shih Tzu, Cairn Terrier, and American Staffordshire). They’re very professional and very accommodating. My Staffordshire has anxiety and needs meds twice a day, in addition to my Cairn Terrier who needs ear infection antibiotics. There are zero problems when I drop them off. It’s always quick & easy. Pick-ups and payments are seamless also. I always get everything returned to me, regardless of what shape it’s in after my dogs realize I’m not returning the next day. I’ve even received calls when one of my girls went into heat. They checked all of them to identify who was bleeding and where. Not to mention, if I run out of food during extended stays, they’ll call to inform me and I’ll have Chewy’s deliver it directly to the kennel. I love this place so much that I picked up 4 “Las Vegas, Nevada” shorts just to thank them for my 11 day visit.
Wonderfull and caring staff. Great accommodations. Great rates. We had to go to Europe due to the death of a family member. They were very accommodating and took care of your kitty. It is very assuring to have a facility like this so close to home. THANK YOU.
My llasapoo is a senior dog. Danielle was very patient and gave him breaks to keep him comfortable with his grooming. He's beautiful after his spaw day!
They may be good at grooming but do not board your dog here. Our flight was delayed one day and Spring Brook kennel provided their food for our dog the morning we picked him up. They claimed he had diarrhea as a result of eating their dried food for one morning. My dog has eaten dozens of food brands both dry and wet as well as the occasional dead animal he finds in the woods. His stomach is solid. The problem here is they did not provide him sufficient water. When we got him home (5 minute ride) he was panting as if he'd just run a marathon, he drank four large bowls of water, and then went to drink from the toilet. Diarrhea is a symptom of dehydration and it is obvious to me Spring Brook kennel staff is not providing sufficient water to the animals. Likely because the dogs will need to pee and that means work for the staff. The young lady with the big mouth needs some training in customer care. When I say "I don't care why you think he is sick just please get me my dog" that's what you do. Instead she chose to continue with her rude demeanor and lame excuses about why my dog was not well. At no time should an argument between an employee and a customer ever occur because as we all know the customer is always right. This poor young girl is angry and has an underlying need to be "right" as a result she is ill suited to interact with customers.
my border collie Oliver loves this place! He comes home completely exhausted and I can tell he enjoys his time here because of he perks up his ears and wags his tail when I say “daycare”. Thank you for taking care of my high energy dog! Highly recommend 10/10
Amazing pet boarding place. My dog always comes home exhausted! I love being able to go on vacation knowing that my dog is happy and safe. I recommend this place to all of my friends ad family! Affordable prices and clean facility.
Absolutely love this place! The employees are friendly and you can tell they love their jobs! They keep it so clean, they post videos daily of what’s going on in both little dog and big dog rooms and it’s great, affordable rates! There was an incident where my pup got hurt. The staff reached out to me immediately and handled it all in a very professional manner. Highly recommend. My pups smile in the picture says it all. She loves it!!
My little girl loves to hear that she going to play with her “LITTLES”. I love that I can drop her off without prior notice. The staff is so great, they handle the dogs wonderful. The dogs are wonderful care Prices are super great too….Having access to watch them is great for worry full fur parents.
Our dog has been playing & vacationing for years at LRD. He loves it, and we love the care he gets! So grateful to have it so close by! 🐶🐾❤️ …
They are so friendly and the periodic pics and videos are awesome. We definitely found our new boarding place. Highly recommend.
My dog was very happy with her stay. She is very little and staff takes extra care of her little needs. She is a little shy too. Nice to know they have sweet , appropriate, animal loving staff. What a relief to not have to worry about my sweet girl while on my trip. Extra ty to Steven who carried her around a lot. 😊 …
Highly recommended! The kennel is clean. The staff is friendly. The dogs are safe. The prices are reasonable. The location is convenient. What's not to like? I've boarded my two dogs here twice. They seem to love it. The owner posts videos of all the dogs every day. It's great. No complaints whatsoever.
Over the weekend, my dog stayed at a care facility and was returned to me with the same amount of food that I had provided. I was impressed with how quickly she devoured her meal and rushed to her food bowl. If you are unable to properly care for a large number of dogs, it may be best to limit the number of dogs you take in.
This place is the absolute best! I never worry about how my dog will be treated because they treat them like they are part of the family. He gets SO excited on days he gets to go play with all his friends :) Friendly staff, clean clean clean!, welcoming atmosphere, great place all around!
Update: 11/24/22 We again boarded our fur babies with Puppy Paradise Blakely. And I have never seen them so happy to be somewhere other than running around our home. Thanks again to the wonderful staff - specifically: Ashley (the manager),Trinity, Megan, Danielle, Heather, and Delina who watched over them on their stay. It means everything to use to know they were so well cared for! We highly recommend Puppy paradise and the staff at the Blakely location- and their window rooms! ------- We boarded our 3 dogs at Puppy Paradise Moosic location for 9 days and we are SO happy we found them. We have two senior dogs English Bulldog (12), Mix (9) and a 3 year old English bulldog. They took excellent care of our pets - we have never had them returned to us in such good condition. Skin folds were wiped, meds were given and they even returned with a bath. They are happy - no hair loss or nervous behaviors or accidents since returning home. Staff had Excellent communication. We loved the option to have photos texted to us and updated. We will definitely be booking another stay with Puppy Paradise.
Left my boy, Finn with them for four days while we went out of town for a wedding. It was the first time we have left him since we adopted him at 8 weeks, so I was incredibly anxious. I cannot say enough good things about the staff at Puppy Paradise. They texted me a ton of photos and videos every day, in which you could clearly tell Finn was being loved and taken care of so well. He had an absolute blast and we will be taking him here any time we can’t bring him with us to travel. Thank y’all sooo much for taking such good care of my boy!!
My Newfie/Lab had a wonderful stay here this past weekend and I was really pleased with the care and attention he clearly got. Very reasonably priced compared to other places I have boarded my dogs and they have an option to be texted pictures/updates about your dog while you are away! We will be back for sure!
We're so happy to have Puppy Paradise for our pups. We don't worry at all while we are away. The staff has always been so friendly and accomodating.They can text and send pics of your pups which is such a comfort. Our dogs always come back to us happy and tired! Thank you Puppy Paradise
The staff at Puppy Paradise take SUCH good care of my sweet girl! I never worry about her when she's there. They go above and beyond for all their puppers. The best boarding facility in the area hands down!
Many thanks do the staff at puppy paradise for their help compassion and consideration in taking care of my dog. I especially want to recognize Ashley because she went over and above and helping to keep my dog healthy while I was out of town. She was initially supposed to be there for 9 days and due to a medical emergency she was there 28 days and the staff was Amazing All of us during this crisis. I would highly recommend puppy paradise to anyone who has to board their dog
Very nice staff. My dog was happy everyday he was there. Highly recommend getting the pictures upgrade. Gave us peace of mind
Always accommodating and impeccable care of my dogs. I have boarded my dogs there several times and they love it. Great staff and always willing to help. I feel very fortunate to have them there and can travel with peace of mind knowing my dogs are being taken care of. Thanks puppy paradise.
Definitely recommend this place! The girls were all so very sweet and caring to our puppy while we were away, which helped put us at ease since being away from her for the first time. Our puppy came home happy 😊 We will definitely be taking her here again in the future! …
We've used Puppy Paradise in the past for boarding our dogs during vacation and they are awesome. The rates are very reasonable and they allow both of our dogs to be boarded in the same room (some kennels do not). They were also able to accommodate us at the last minute when we had to suddenly leave town for a couple of days. The staff is friendly and our dogs love it.
Our pups stayed at Paw Pack while we went out of the country for the first time + for the first time, I actually felt comfortable leaving them somewhere without constant worry - even though we were gone for a week! The minute we came to check out the place, we got such a good vibe from them. The owner and every member of the staff that we interacted with was super friendly + you can tell they truly love dogs - they were so excited to hang out with our puppies which definitely made me feel at ease. We couldn't get on the app from out of the country so the owner sent me pictures via text/email. The entire experience was so easy from booking to picking up! The prices are super reasonable and they took holiday photos during their stay as well which were super cute! I'm very happy we found a place that truly cares + actually feels like our pups are on vacation too! Highly recommended A++++
I have 2 Golden Retrievers one which is very anxious due to a couple of bad experiences at other facilities. The staff at Paw Pack is excellent and ALWAYS takes great care of my dogs! ❤️
Unreliable and poor communication - we had booked a grooming appointment for two dogs right before Christmas weeks in advance. We arrived early for our appointment despite terrible roads, and provided the receptionist our name and rabies certificates - was told to bring in the pups. Then another worker came in and said “oh we texted you our groomer called in with a family issue we had to cancel…”. No text, nor email or call was received - the “worker” argued with me they did but I had my phone showing no such text. So, as this is not the first time they have cancelled we won’t be giving them another chance. Try to support local businesses but unreliable is not realistic.
Some of the most friendly people you will ever meet! You should never have any question on whether you doggy best friend would be treated well. Heck sometimes i think they enjoy it there more then home 😅 I whole heartedly recommended Paw Pack for anyone who has the best interest in mind for their fur babies! I would give 10 stars if google would let me!
Everyone at Pawpack Doggy Daycare is super nice. They are easy to work with and take great care of my dog.
Our 10 month old puppy has been going here for 6 months now and we love it every bit as much as the day we discovered this place. We have attended a program for puppy Kindergarten (Milo graduated!), used the grooming services, and take him 3 times a week for puppy daycare. He is so excited going into this place, he drags us from the car into the door. He comes home tired from his day of fun on the weekdays, which is good because we are tired from our work days too! Very nice staff that we completely trust with our beloved puppy!
My girl Sookie loves to come here to see her friends! The people are so nice, willing to work with the dogs and the atmosphere is bright and friendly and clean. Sookie gets excited when she sees where we are going.😁 …
Boarded our 2 frenchie for overnight everything seemed ok think they fed them little too much and their food bowl was all chewed up ?? But they were clean and happy when we picked them up will use again Pawpack again , prices are reasonable ,clean place arriving staff was really friendly , and welcoming , upon pick up not so much seemed like they were not all there, were scatter brained but still my lpups came back happy so nice place 4- stars . Thanks
Fantastic place to board your pets! Staff are extremely friendly, professional, and responsive. Highly recommend if you’re looking for either a short or long term stay. Staff were very accommodating to our pups needs and medical issues. Updates were provided to us daily to ensure our dogs were doing well. Facility was clean and accessible to many areas within northeast Pennsylvania. Can’t wait for our next stay!!!!
My 13 month old Australian Cattle Dog “Cassius” had a wonderful experience at Paw Pack Doggy Daycare. It was his first time in a daycare setting. We liked the owner so much we felt comfortable leaving him overnight 2 days later. He couldn’t get out of the car fast enough,he was so excited about going again. We will definitely be using Paw Pack again. We met the husband (co-owner) when we picked up. He made the same great impression as his wife. We could’ve got a daycare closer to our destination. It was worth going out of our way. Love ❤️ this place!
My parents have used KC Kennels with all 3 of the dogs our family has had (since I was in Jr High). Karen is super great with them and they are always happy to see her! If I lived closer- my dog would also be a guest from time to time too! Super professional and kind.
This place is great. We are taking our dogs there for years. Karen and her husband are wonderful and we feel more than comfortable to leave the dogs with them.
Wonderful couple that takes care of your dog and rescues. Family run. Very caring and priced well. Will be my go to for difficult fosters.
Great people. Very clean
Very cooperative.
Great Care of my furbaby, NICE PEOPLE !!!!!!!!!!!
Dior & Mocha are so lucky to have such a fun and safe daycare and boarding facility! It is so important to me to know that my babies are so well taken care of when I leave them. From the cameras, to the staff, and enrichment services, I couldn’t ask for much more! Not to mention, they always leave smelling so fresh and clean from their baths! The attention to detail with feeding, medication, and cleanliness is impeccable! Thank you CBW for being my pups home away from home 🙏💕🎁‼️
Camp Bow Wow is simply the BEST!! Our big goldendoodle is not always able to travel with us and I have no hesitation to book him a stay at camp. They all love dogs and you can tell they really care about how Buddy is doing. I am confident in his care and well-being while he is there.
my pup is absolutely not the easiest to deal w but the staff at Camp Bow Wow does it! ever since she was 4 months old, they’ve made her feel nothing but loved. every time she’s dropped off, she shakes her little aussie butt and says goodbye to me faster than ever. she doesn’t normally like a lot of ppl but i don’t have that issue w cbw. she’s stayed overnight before and came home happy. she loves all of their enrichments too. i can’t thank cbw enough for all they do for my little girl❤️❤️
I can’t say enough great things about Camp Bow Wow! We started taking our 4 month old Doberman there so we can socialize her and pretty much wear her out! She’s extremely active and after a fun day at “camp” Koda is exhausted! The staff is wonderful and you can tell they truly care about every animal! They offer daily enrichment activities for the dogs to change things up and give some one on one time, and I also take advantage of the grooming services while she’s there and get her nails trimmed. It’s a one stop shop for pups! I was extremely nervous about leaving Koda for our vacation but I know she’s in good hands and she truly loves every staff member there! I know she’ll be well taken care of while we’re away! Camp Bow Wow has been a God send since having a puppy again!
I love camp bow wow and so does my dog. The entire staff is so caring and attentive and honestly treat Maisy like she is family. I always feel safe leaving her there and know she will have the best time. The camp offers wonderful enrichment activities and top notch grooming services. I couldn’t ask for more and truly am grateful for the care that is provided. Thank you to management and all the counselors for loving Maisy almost as much as I do 🤍🤍🤍
This is the first time Odie has had a boarding stay at camp. The staff is phenomenal with him and watching him on the cameras has alleviated most of my anxiety! Camp Bow Wow is the best !!
everyone here is always so nice and friendly! my dog, louie gets groomed here and they always treat him like their own family and are so excited to see him! the facility is very clean as well. i wouldn’t trust my dog with anyone else!
Juno loves Camp and we love it just as much! All the employees are very welcoming and attentive to us and our girl. She is always so excited as soon as we pull into the parking lot and she comes home very exhausted!!! We also enjoy being able to keep tabs on her with the cameras and the app. After a few months of sending our girl, I can say we would 100% recommended this daycare to others.
Abu loves it at Camp Bow Wow; loves playing with his furry friends, and loves the staff!! They’ve always been great!!
The whole experience has been amazing. We left two of our doggies Lilly and Zorra and were able to see them drinking the day on their clear videos. What a great place. Thank you also for keeping them an extra day as we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it back but when we called they were more than accommodating. What a great place we found. Thanks to all the staff.
Lori Jean Karluk of Silver Snuggles Pet and House Sitting is not only an outstanding and reliable human being, she is a true animal lover and advocate. When we travel, we leave our home and beloved animals in her care and never think twice about anything ! She is reliable, caring, prompt, and attentive. Lori Jean adores animals. Last summer we had a suspicious vehicle at our home, and Lori Jean went WAY beyond what her contract required of her. She dealt with the situation for HOURS, calling the state police, contacting us, staying while the trooper inspected our home. Not to mention our cats LOVE her. They come running when she arrives. Need I say more ??
Lori Jean is a wonderful person with a genuine love of animals. My dog took to her right away. She is happy to go with Lori,and comes back happy and looking well-cared for by Lori. I would NEVER leave my dog with anyone I could not trust completely. I am very grateful to have found Lori Jean.
Lori Jean's primary business is pet sitting. But when I could not find a property manager to keep an eye on my father's house through his final days in assisted living and ultimate death, I turned to her for house sitting services. Living 200 miles away, during a pandemic and during winter, she was a life saver. She visited the house, checked for things like leaking pipes, and texted me pictures of the thermostat. One day, the heat was off, and she not only reported the problem, she actually went down the basement, added water to the steam boiler, and fixed it. Have not used the pet sitting services, but we have traded photos of our pets, and her love for animals comes through loud and clear in her online postings. My highest recommendation.
Lori I want to tell you how impressed I was with the cleanliness of your home and your reasonable prices. I will definitely recommend you to friends and family when they need a pet sitter. I was nervous about leaving my dog with a stranger but when my friend Anette recommended you I knew you would be trustworthy. Happy New Year!!
Lori has watched our dogs in the past and has taken great care of them . We would trust her anytime with our animals.
Learned to late
We have tried several places to board our Nina & Bella. The places were all cages for the dogs & our dogs are not use to being caged. They love interacting with people & other animals. We then found Barks Town Country, Chris & Brooke are the nicest people! We knew from our first time meeting them they love animals. Our dogs loved going to their home where they got the same care there like home. Our Bella has a medical issue & when she gets nervous there is always a change in her bowel movement. Going to Barks Town Country there is no change in Bella 🥰. Both Nina & Bella come home exhausted from playing so much. We are so grateful that we found them & we highly recommend them.
If you have been worrying about finding a safe and comfortable place to leave your dog overnight, you can breathe a sigh of relief. These are your people. I had been dreading the day when I would have to board our 2 year old dog. She is used to being with family, is a sweet pup, can be a little nervous and is a bit spoiled... I just didn’t see her faring well in a traditional kennel. I found Brooke and Chris Rivera’s BarksTown site and thought it would be too good to be true... However, I’m pleased to tell you that they are amazing. They took our dog into their home and gave her what seemed like a little “vacation” of her own! Our dog got first class treatment that included walks, lots of play time, snuggles, daily brushing, lounging around a super cute home and best of all, she made new friends with the Rivera’s over-the-top cute dog, Marshmallow. I received pictures and daily updates on our dog that included details about how she was adjusting and overall reassurances that she was having a great time! When we got home and reunited with our furry family member, she was relaxed and just happy to see us again. She was bright eyed, rested and even smelled good! Give these folks a call if you need a place for your dog to stay. You (and your beloved pet) won’t be disappointed! Thank you, BarksTown!! 🐾🐶
We boarded our dogs with BarksTown Country this past weekend and I couldn’t have been happier! We have two Rhodesian ridgebacks who can be a little hard to handle, and on top of that, they're my babies so I am VERY overprotective of them and am extremely picky about who watches them. I’ve been looking for an in home boarding service for awhile now and am SO happy I found Barkstown Country. We've boarded our dogs at traditional kennels in the past and I just never felt comfortable leaving them there - one of my dogs would start shaking in fear the second we showed up at the kennel. But when we showed up at Chris and Brooke's, both dogs settled in instantly and felt right at home! We brought them out back to check out the fenced in play area and instantly they started playing!! This is when I knew we had come to the right place! When the dogs are inside they're not kept in a kennel, and can comfortably sleep on the couch or bed (which is exactly what they do when they’re home). Chris sent me pictures and updates throughout the weekend which gave me a peace of mind knowing they were happy and well taken care of! I’d highly recommend BarksTown country! We’ll definitely be using them again!
If you’re looking for a dog walker - then I 110% recommend Barkstown Country. We were having issues with our 6 year old medium sized puppers, Penny. She is housed trained and rarely had any accidents in the house until this passed winter. After a few weeks of consistent accidents we decided she needed someone to get her out of the house in the middle of the day. We reached out to Barkstown and that same day Brooke responded to us to set up a time for her and Chris to come and meet us and Penny and just get an idea of what we were looking for. Right away Penny (and us) loved them! They were so accommodating when it came to my Husband’s and my schedules (which at the time was consistently changing especially with the snow / working from home). After every walk we would get a text from Brooke or Chris saying Penny was good to go and occasionally we’d get an adorable picture of Penny enjoying the outside! We could tell that they just enjoyed taking care of your dog and gave them as much love that we would give our pup. We recently moved out of the area but Chris and Brooke still occasionally check in with us to see how Penny is doing! They’re truly amazing and caring people! Thank you guys for everything!
THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! I have never boarded my 6 year old Yorkie before and when I had a family emergency (my mother fell on Christmas) Chris and Brooke took my fur baby on short notice during the very busy holiday weekend. I was so nervous and stressed out at the thought of putting my spoiled yorkie in a kennel when hes never even been in a crate - thats when I found BarksTown Country which is kennel free at their own home. Chris and Brooke are the most genuine people and it was divine intervention that I found them because I will go back again and again. It was like having a friend watch my dog. They were easy to communicate with, sent me pictures all the time which totally put my mind at ease, and most importantly they treat your dog like one of their own - seriously! My yorkie snuggled with Chris' mom all weekend (they sent me pictures, she was literally holding him while snoozing like a baby in her arms on the couch) and their dog, Marshmallow, was the most friendly (and adorable) host. I think my dog actually came back to me in better spirits than when I dropped him off! Thank you chris, brooke and family.... can't wait to see you again!!!
We've been using BarksTown's services to walk our boxer Monday through Friday for the past year, and have been very happy. They're reliable, responsive, and clearly care about her. We just started using the BarksTown Country boarding services as well and it was such a relief to know our pup was in good hands while we were traveling. They shared pics and video of her throughout the week and their pickup/dropoff service made it incredibly convenient.
Chris has been taking care of my five cats for a year now. He sends photos of my cats when he visits and keeps me updated on how they are doing. Chris is gentle with my cats and they are happy with him. I’m am extremely satisfied with BarksTown Country.
I am so glad I had Chris take care of my senior cat Etta while I was away He was wonderful with her and even sent me a picture to put my mind at ease She was fed and socialized and received her medications from a loving sole I think she misses him Will definitely use his services again
The best ever!! I have a chihuahua. Pinto first stayed in August and I've used them every month since. Every time I call to see if there is availability for Pinto to stay they come through. Pinto absolutely loves staying with them. Wish I found them years ago!
Gentle and loving owners that care about your furbaby
