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.

Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer. Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily. The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming. Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. Thanks Kendra!!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
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.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
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!
Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
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, $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!
Bailey loves his weekly play dates with Lauren! My very energetic fur baby learned to socialize and play with other dogs in a safe environment. So thankful for her.
My dog Blaze goes absolutely insane with excitement when I mention going to Peaceful Pup to see Lauren! He normally has separation anxiety when it comes to leaving me, however, when we arrive at Peaceful Pups, he leaps out of the car and runs right to the door. He has a wonderful time and I totally trust Lauren with my fur baby!
As a first time dog owner my family and I were nervous to trust anyone with our puppy. However, we felt an immediate connection with Lauren. She was knowledgeable, professional, and so kind. My dog loved her from their first interaction. She has helped us with tips, walking, boarding, and she has been so easy to work with. We feel extremely lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her!
We had a large party and we wanted to eliminate the worry that comes with non dog owners and doors being inadvertently left open. So we asked our vet for a sitting service. Peaceful pups was recommended. And after meeting Lauren, we found a perfect and safe place for our dog. It was our first worry free party in ages. And our dog came home happy and tired from all the fun she had. Thank you Lauren!
Leaving our pets in Lauren’s care was the best decision we made. She is extremely responsible and competent. I could not have had more peace of mind if I was with them myself! Thank you, Lauren!
Lauren is absolutely amazing. She is someone I can count on with my fur baby for anything without a stress or worry. I’m so thankful for her and couldn’t recommend her more. When you have Lauren looking after your pet you can assure you have nothing to worry about she’s spoiling them for sure!
Lauren was so wonderful with our cats. Responsive and on time, had no worries at all while away. We will definitely use her services again!
Lauren has taken care of our dogs , both large and small dogs. They love her and it is great because we know our dogs are well taken care of when we are away. I highly recommend her services. 🐾🐾
If you’re looking for someone who cares for dogs as if they are their own, it’s Peaceful Pups! Lauren is responsible, reliable and treats each dog with love‼️ There is no better feeling than knowing your loved one is in the best hands…
I cannot sing the praises of Peaceful Pups Dog Care loudly enough. My dog had a rough passage prior to coming to my home. He endured losing a leg in Hurrican Marie in Puerto Rico. Peaceful Pups has worked with me to overcome his reactive quirks so he can have a much better life. I never worry for a second when he is in Lauren's care. She is a dog whisperer extraordinare. My dog howls when he knows she is coming. Praise from a pup who has had a tough time. THAT says it all!!
The Doggie Shrink is a great place to bring your dog for doggy daycare, boarding, as well as grooming. My dog loves to go there and play with other dogs for doggy daycare or when he's been boarded there. The entire staff Is excellent and I know they take very good care of my dog when he's there. I highly recommend The Doggie Shrink for a place to bring your dog for doggy daycare, Boarding and or grooming needs
Doggie Shrink came highly recommended to us by friends who have used this facility for both boarding and training. We could not be more pleased with the care and handling that they have provided to our two miniature dachshunds. The facility is clean and only receives pets that are current with all vaccinations. They treat our our dogs as family and provide the same love and attention as we do ourselves. Upon arriving for drop off, our dogs are greeted with affection and are anxious to enter the facility. The staff is always available to discuss whatever concerns and goals we may have for our dogs, and shares their observations in full detail. I highly recommend Doggie Shrink to anyone interested in both boarding and training their pets.
I’ve been using Kim and Doggie Shrink for years for boarding and socialization . They are excellent! We recently adopted a fairly big happy puppy who needed a home, but had no training whatsoever. With the help of Doggie Shrink, he no longer pulls on the leash after two sessions. They have also helped me with recommendations on how to train him, and he is SO much better. We also use them for weekly camp so he can get socialized and run around with all his new friends.
Kim, Lars and team are the absolute best. We live in LA and every time we visit family in NJ our Pom can’t wait to spend a few days with his friends at Doggie Shrink. Boarding has also been a breeze. The team’s love for all the dogs is palpable and there is nobody we trust more with our little guy.
We were referred to Kim by another dog owner friend (shout out to Hugo!), once we told them about the fighting troubles we have between our two boxer pups. Our dogs are currently at The Doggie Shrink for some board & train. Kim knows her sh*t. She has an incredible passion for dogs ("there are no bad dogs") and that seems matched only by her understanding of their behavior and why they act and respond the way they do. This should be the key to solving any issue or just regular obedience training. We are still in the process with our dogs but I trust Kim implicitly. Behind the fences there seems to be a doggie paradise, with lots of room and friends to play with. Kim's own dogs are trained incredibly well, as we have been able to see in videos where they assist her in the training of my pups. We will come back and report more after we have more info and results but very impressed in the first few visits and boards, as well as Kim's availability to me to explain everything going on. Highly recommend.
Kim, Lars, and the whole team are absolutely wonderful! I take my husky here every seven weeks or so and they always do such a fabulous job with his long, thick coat! He always comes home so much whiter, nicely brushed out, and his paw fur trimmed nicely. I cannot say enough amazing things about Doggie Shrink :)
Doggie Shrink is the best!! They have so much care and love for the dogs. I have been bringing my dog there for 3 years now and I am so happy. Kim is the best trainer I have ever worked with, she really cares about what she does. If you need dog training, boarding, or day care I would absolutely recommend you bring your dogs to her! Her staff is wonderful, Rosie has the best time playing staying and learning with Kim & her staff. Doggie Shrink is by far the best facility! I love them!
Being a life long dog owner, I had never considered using a doggie daycare or have had to board my pets. We always depended on family members to help out. However, after rescuing a new puppy a year ago, my husband and I - being two busy, working people- wanted to make sure our new dog had attention, training and socialization. We saw how much our spunky labradoodle needed to play and socialize. The whole experience was completely new to us, and after doing some research and asking our groomer for a recommendation, they did not hesitate to recommend Doggie Shrink. What a blessing it has been finding DS! Kim and the entire DS Team have been beyond wonderful, loving and caring with our young pup. He is excited to go weekly and we feel such peace going on vacation knowing he is being well cared for and loved on when we are not home. We have also used DS for training and have learned so much by working with DS. I continue to recommend DS to all coworkers and friends in the area. The DS Team is the absolute best!!
We are grateful to Doggie Shrink and their team! Savannah has been going for day care and overnights and we feel at ease when she is there. She is so loved and cared for! We highly recommend!
I cannot put into words how grateful we are for Kim and the entire Doggie Shrink team! They have quickly become our dog's favorite people and favorite place. They helped us navigate our dog's socialization issues and brought the sweet and gentle side back into our dog. They are always on call to answer questions and help with continued training. When I was in labor with my son in February 2023, their team allowed us to bring our dog VERY last-minute to be boarded and kept her happy and safe while we were in the trenches of having a newborn, as well as gave us tips on introducing our dog to our new baby. We can't thank them enough for everything and would recommend them to anyone in need of doggie daycare, boarding and grooming!!
Excellent, clean environment, great private luxury accommodations for all types of dogs & a caring , attentive staff 👍. Wonderful services available at great value for prices 👍. I feel secure that my baby “Junior”is safe & loved while I’m away! Go for a tour & you will agree! I am a Veterinary professional for 20 years & have been to many facilities but this one has them all beat hands down!! Thanks, Kathie Y
Went on a tour here and took our dogs for evaluations. The facility is gorgeous and very well kept. We saw a video of our dogs on social media which was fine. I also called to check on my dogs before they posted the video since it was their first doggy daycare. In the video, we didn’t love the volume of dogs in the play area. The dogs did great with their evaluation and the staff is absolutely lovely. We just noticed our dogs looked overwhelmed with all the other dogs there (it was close to 30 total that day). We were told max capacity is 75 dogs in a play area and they have appropriate staffing when they get to those volumes. I think it’s just a personal preference that we want our dogs in a smaller group environment so they aren’t overwhelmed. If it weren’t for the volume of dogs that go to this daycare, we would’ve used them daily but it just didn’t feel like a good fit for our pups
Our dog Lucy has stayed with K 9 Resorts a couple of times. One short weekend and then a two week stay while we are out of the country. When we picked her up on our return, she was excited, friendly, and very happy. All indications to us is our dog had a good time, looked healthy, and smelled fresh and clean from her pick up day bath. We are going away in late October and Lucy will definitely be staying at K 9 Resorts. By the way, after that Original short day, Lucy seemed excited when she went through the door going in for the two weeks stay, she liked the place, and that’s a great sign. Thanks so much for taking great care of her.
Sawyer loves hanging out with his doggie friends. The staff always takes such good care of him and he comes home happy and tired! We recently left him for 3 weeks and we worried about the length of time, but he came home happy and healthy.
My baby boy loves this place like a second home! It’s spotless and the staff is incredible (especially the assistant manager Lynette). As an over protective millennial dog mom I trust K9 resorts 100%. You can tell that everyone genuinely loves the dogs. I have peace of mind knowing he's happy and safe playing with his friends while I’m working. I have tried other camps before but none compare!
I can’t begin to say how thrilled we are w/ K9 resorts/ Emerson! The facility spotless, and each person there ultra-friendly and accommodating! They are all dog lovers- and doggone it! 🤗 It shows!! - great experience! The video of the dogs in the play-setting made one feel extra- secure and happy our Bentley was so wonderfully cared- for. Superb place-
Thank you so much, K 9 Resort in Emerson I very highly recommend this resort with a friendly and helpful staff thank you, Grace and Natalie for treating me and Brasi like family. He had lots of fun today on his trial. Can’t wait to come again. peter& Brasi 🐾 …
K9 Resorts is very well run with a staff that cares about the dogs staying there. It was the first time my dogs were boarded and I felt comfortable taking them there and was very happy with their care during their stay!
We have been using K9 Resorts in Fairfield for over 5 years and recently had to switch to the Emerson location due to renovations. They were so incredible in helping us with our reservations. Their facility is top notch and the staff is so sweet. We left our girl in loving hands.
K9 Resorts of Emerson is a top notch facility. I had 2 dogs who have never boarded before stay at this location for 4 nights and they were well cared for, played with, and looked after with the utmost kindness and professionalism. I feel completely comfortable with the staff, facilities, and service at K9 Resorts of Emerson. I would highly recommend this business to anyone in need of dog boarding services. We will definitely bring our dogs there again the next time we are traveling. Thank you and kudos to the staff.
Max loves Pet Lodge! He goes for daycare to get a play date, and he boards there when we have to travel when he doesn't get to go with us. The staff are great and go above and beyond to take care of the pets. They have grooming facilities, too!
This place is great for boarding or grooming. The staff all totally love dogs. They are all very experienced. The groomers have decades of experience also. They do a great job with my poodles. Everyone from Peace4Paws who bring their dogs here [adopted from us] love them. Jac Ciardella the owner is super knowledgeable, accomplished and accomodating
Our dog Neville loves it here. We Love that he gets to run around outside and play with other dogs. Always look forward to seeing daily pics they upload to FB and Insta of Nev running around.
I have been taking my dogs here for grooming and boarding for 5 years. I am grateful for the care and professionalism they demonstrate. Thank you for your amazing service and care.
Pet lodge has been an absolute heaven-sent for my dog (and me)! My dog isn’t the most affectionate dog. She loves to show aggression and teeth 😈 🤦🏻♀️ but Jac and the entire team just know what to do. Their love for dogs is expressed by how well they take care of each and every dog—catering to what a dog needs individually. I appreciate how well they groom and how fast they can do it, as well. I picked up my dog in less than two hours for a full groom! Also, easy to make appts. I usually book via email. Matty at the front desk is super sweet and welcoming. That’s another plus! Thank you Pet Lodge for being so great to Maggie (and again, me)!!!
My dogs had a great experience at the Pet Lodge. The facility is clean, and the staff is caring and attentive. They also got a bath and nails done. All three of them came back happy after their seven day vacation. I will be using them again.
This place felt misleading as I was under the impression it was more of a farm style to lodge your dog as I'm not a fan of boarding them traditionally. As soon as I arrived, my dog was taken somewhere. Meanwhile, they handed me a sheet of paper asking me to sign it when it just had her name and how much she ate on it. Then they tried to send me on my way. I had to ask to be shown around as to where they kept the dogs during the day and at night. In the two minutes I was "shown" the property, my dog was nowhere in sight. Upon departure, I had let them know a generic time of when I'd be back to pick her up. Ie Monday morning. Upon arriving at almost 11am to pick her up, my dog was still locked in the kennel. Not only did she smell of urine but her whole butt was raw from god knows what. I didn't see the owners once even though this is really just their house with an addition and a caged in backyard next to a cemetery. You can only pay with check or cash and things seemed quite transactional. I personally don't recommend and am quite shocked by the glowing reviews. My dog was very excited to leave.
I recently took my bernedoodle to Pet Lodge and Day Spa for grooming, and I am thrilled with the experience. Jac and his team were friendly and attentive, making my dog feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. The groomers were skilled and knowledgeable, delivering an exceptional grooming service that left my dog looking great. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, and they're in the process of installing brand-new epoxy flooring throughout the entire facility showcasing their commitment to hygiene. I highly recommend Pet Lodge and Day Spa for anyone seeking professional and caring grooming services for their furry companions.
I took my 12 year old Shih Tzu, Chanel, here for the first time since Petsmart Grooming rejected her after she’s been going there for years. The entire staff is so welcoming and Jac truly took such great care of my Chanel girl. We are so grateful to have found such great groomers. 1000/10 recommend!!!!
The Pet Lodge is a wonderful facility for your fur baby. My dog loves playing in the spacious, safe, and well-supervised yard. The staff truly loves and cares for your pet, and it shows! My fur baby runs right in and knows he will be very well taken care of. He loves playing with all the other dogs too. It's like a home away from home:) We are so grateful for all they do!
I can't think of any company/retailer/store I've been happier to find in the past several years that we use on a consistent basis. Doggy Deuce has been our pooper scooping service for many many years, 3 dogs and counting. We now use them for pet sitting while we're away on vacation or just for overnights. While we're away, we get pictures of them, updates on how they're doing and Chris even goes the extra mile and offers to bring in our mail and take care of the pool while we're gone. I challenge anyone to find a small business that offers such service! Also, when I'm looking for any other service recommendation, (window washing, pool closing, carpet cleaning, etc.) Chris from Doggy Deuce always knows the best businesses to call upon. He's part of a big network of local businesses that have proven to be trustworthy and capable; the best can always recommend the best. Doggy Deuce is also an active advocate for pet adoption and strongly care about the welfare of animals. And the office staff is extremely attentive and available, returning emails and calls with very quick turnaround. This company is the real deal. I've recommended them to 3 other families on my block who now also use them! Our pets are our family, our house is our home, and I wouldn't trust either of them to anyone but Doggy Deuce. I'd be happy to offer a personal recommendation to anyone who reaches out.
We have been using them for a couple of years now. Our last trip away I scheduled them to visit my home twice a day for 3 days to take care of my 15-1/2 yr old Yorkie who is partially blind and deaf. On the final day of service I received an invoice I could not open so I emailed them back and requested it sent in a different format. The following day on our way home from our trip I received a call from Becky advising me that unfortunately, she mixed up the dates and no one visited my home to take care of my dog for 3 days. She proceeded to explain she was sick the day she took my appointment and probably shouldn't have been making appointments. What I don't understand is how an invoice is sent for the correct dates, but yet the dates were mixed up. These people are lucky my dog was alive. Barely alive, but she was! The dog was without water for 3 days. One more day and I doubt she would've survived. This is a huge mistake! This is a life we are talking about here. These mistakes cannot happen. I was very upset and angry and refused to further speak to them. There is nothing they can do to make this OK other than REFUND me my money they took without providing services! I would never recommend them to anyone!
I have been using doggie deuce now for over four years and they are amazing! I use them for both dog boarding and pooper scooper and they are super dependable, accommodating and (in my opinion) reasonably priced. Chris (the owner) and Jen (the manager) are super nice and you get a sense that they truly love what they do and the dogs. My dogs actually look happy when they leave to stay there while we are on vacation. While the dogs are there- they send pictures and updates which is awesome. I cannot say enough how much I love them and how much easier it is having them in our life. If you love your dogs as much as we do- you definitely want to give them a try the next time you are going away.
In addition to loving and caring for my own personal dogs, I spend much of my time rescuing animals in need. As a result, my yard tends to suffer. I enlisted the help of Doggy Deuce a few months ago and I couldn't be happier. The service is extremely reliable and the staff is friendly and pleasant.
I have been using Doggie Deuce for my dog Chase. They are incredible in so many ways. They care for my pet as much as I do. They are reliable, trustworthy, honest, caring and I would use no one else for my boy. I use them as a walker and also for a stay when I am away. Chris is an incredible owner and always makes me feel that my dog is in GREAT hands. Thats enough for me to rate this wonderful company ...EXCELLENT!!!!! Also, the girls in charge of the scheduling are efficient!! All GOOD..Thanks again, Doggie Deuce..
Unfortunately this company has yet again failed to properly trained or communicate with their new staff. Once again one of the their employees have left my gate open for my two pit bulls which are not dog friendly. They were instructed since the beginning to call my phone before they came so we can ensure the dogs were inside, but they failed to do that too. If he was confused as I was told. He should have called the office, myself or rescheduled. I find it very disturbing and hard to understand the lack of common sense of this person. He not only put my dogs in danger but other dogs too.
Doggy Deuce watches my pup when I go out of town and she has so much fun. They take such great care of her and make sure she is treated like a princess.
Chris and his team are the BEST. He has an innate gift with animals and is truly a dog whisperer.
A fabulous service! I've used them for years now & I'm very happy! I recommend them as highly as possible!!!!
Stone was fire! 🔥🔥🔥 …
I was trying out to see if this place would be a good fit for my pup cause i know my pup is usually very anxious. Unfortunately things didn’t work out as i hoped but that’s okay! Because i appreciated how much this place communicated with me and heard my concerns about my pup. They did their very best to make my pup comfortable and that’s all i can ask for. The staff is super sweet and very understanding. I’m hoping that with more training my pup will be able to gain the confidence he needs to be able to come back here cause that’s how great they treated us. They are aware of how to make sure the place is safe for furry friends and that’s what is important! Thank you guys for doing your very best and being patient with my pup. I’m hoping i can return when he is more ready!
We’ve taken our two dogs here twice now. Once for their evaluation and once for doggy daycare. The staff is really friendly and explained things well. The moment we pulled up to the parking lot for their day of daycare, the dogs wanted to run inside. They were greeted by friendly humans and went running to go play that they didn’t even say bye. When we picked them up, they were excited to see us but weren’t running out of the door. They went back to say bye to the staff there. They came home exhausted but very happy. I got a video seeing how they were doing which gave me some piece of mind and they do little activities for holidays which I LOVE. My dogs are my fur babies and it feels like they understand that.
Took our two dogs there for day care before we board them this weekend. Sounds like they had a great time and played with the other dogs. They are absolutely exhausted! Guess we will all sleep well tonight 😌 …
Love love love this place - the staff takes great care of my rambunctious 2 boys. They are always so friendly, nice and polite. The themed parties are too cute, I can't wait to see photos they post ( this was them at prom) Really this is the only place I want to tale my dogs to.
Bella blue loves to go to Hounds Town in Hillsdale, and we feel comfortable leaving our girl there as well! It’s our new favorite place
Very very happy with my dog's stay at Hounds Town Hillsdale. Daily video updates, quick responses to emails and came back to a happy pup after 12 days! Will definitely make this establishment my go-to for all boarding needs!
Early July 2024- My initial orientation with my dog, Chuck went extremely well due to the professionalism of the staff. They were kind, knowledgeable and patient. I look forward to my pup attending daycare and extended stay at this location.. .
Be careful leaving your dog in the care of this location. There has been surveillance video footage of the abuse of Charlie (GSD). Check out @ABC7NY tiktok video posting from yesterday 9/20/24. Had the employee whistleblower not show the footage to Charlie’s owner, he would have never knew, other dog owners that leave their dog here would’ve been oblivious, and that manager that abused Charlie in two instances would’ve still been working here. But according to the video they said the manager has been fired. And here is the proof before the Google business account owner/ runner wants to deny these claims. This is footage of the GSD Charlie that is also featured in that TikTok video by ABC7NY News.
I picked up my chocolate lab axle this weekend after a seven day boarding. When I received him he had a raw nose on the top of his bridge. Upon asking the staff what happened. They stated that it was that he was sticking his nose underneath a gate. And that’s what probably caused it. I’ve used your services times before and never had an issue. Till now. I hope that this does not scar my dogs nose. Right now at the moment it is discolored unfortunately. and maybe the facility can assure that this does not happen to other dogs.
They took great care of my Kenna and made sure she had a fun and safe experience. The facilities are clean, spacious, and well-maintained, with plenty of room for the dogs to run around and play. The service was top-notch, from the convenient drop-off and pick-up to the flexible scheduling and reasonable pricing.
I can never saw enough about how truly wonderful Paw Pals is! From the dog walking service, to the daycare, to the overnight home stays and the boarding, we have done it all and each time has been wonderful. They truly treat your pet like their own. Our dog is now 10 and has always been a nervous type. The team at Paw Pals is always so patient and kind and loving with him. I always love getting the reports with how sweet he was with them too! I have and will continue to recommend Paw Pals to all of my friends and family. It is the only place when we leave our pup, we never have to think twice! Paw Pals has helped us for our wedding, birth of our kids, vacations and everything in between. Brittanie and her team are the best at what they do!! Thank you Paw Pals for being so amazing and the best at what you do!
Brittanie and the Paw Pals team took such good care of our boys. We were able to spend a nice weekend away without having to worry if our pups were okay. We received a daily report card with a photo to keep us updated. I wouldn't take my pups anywhere else ♡ Thank you, Paw Pals!
Paw Pals provided excellent care for Nala while I was away! Given that she's a working line German Shepherd, I was worried about meeting her mental and physical activity needs during boarding. However, Paw Pals kept her active, engaged, and stimulated with walks, puzzles, and playtime. Brittanie was incredibly responsive and reassuring when I checked in, even sending extra photos for my peace of mind. They continuously refine and improve their practices to be inclusive of all types of dogs, from their daycare program and individual enrichment activities to on-site training and even micro groups for selective dogs. Their commitment to providing tailored care that meets each dog's unique needs sets them apart from the rest. Thank you Paw Pals!
I can not thank the Paw Pals team enough. We got our puppy in the middle of winter, so it was challenging to find ways to help him socialize with other dogs and people. I am so happy we found Paw Pals! Jet was nervous the first time he walked in, but after that, he always walked in with a smile and a wagging tail! They are very accommodating when we send him (3-4 times a month). We don’t send him often, but the few times he has attended daycare shows that it helped him feel comfortable around new dogs and people. We feel at ease knowing he is with kind professionals, exercising and socializing, and the pictures they send us make our day. I can tell the owner is diligent with whom she hires and is a kind and caring professional. Their website is straightforward and easy to navigate. We are going on a few vacations over the summer and plan on sending him here with complete trust that he will be happy and on vacation, too! Thank you Paw Pals!!
The Paw Pals team has been excellent taking care of my pup as I transition back to working in the office! From the dog walking team to the day care and boarding team not only do they keep me updated but they keep my dog very happy. The team also is very accommodating when my schedule changes. And I get the cutest photos! Thanks Paw Pals!
Paw Pals is the best - our dogs love to go there. The last time we boarded them, Paw Pals literally saved our summer vacation - one of our dogs needed a visit to the vet while we were away (non serious but needed to go) and the owner took her for us so we didn’t have to disappoint our kids and cut our trip short. They always take great care of our babies and go above and beyond.
To say Paw Pals is an amazing day care/boarding facility would be an understatement. I have trusted Brittanie and her team with my fur baby since 2021. The Paw Pals team have loved on and cared for my baby as if he is truly apart of their family. I have always been exceptionally pleased and grateful for their care, attention to detail with enrichment activities and the health & welfare of my fur baby, and frequent updates/communication to include pictures. Joey loves going to “school” to see his friends and the staff. Thank you, Paw Pals for being a reliable, trustworthy, safe, and fun establishment! I can’t say enough— thank you for working with me and last minute bookings, taking care of Joey if I was across or out of the country or simply running boring, adult errands! You all are awesome and appreciated!
My two dogs totally enjoy their time spent at Paw Pals. They love coming and can’t get inside fast enough to play with staff and friends. Staff is super friendly and always make me feel as though my guys are welcome there. It’s the best doggy day care I have ever used.
I am thrilled to share my outstanding experience with Paw Pals From the moment I walked in, I knew my furry friend was in excellent hands. The staff at Paw Pals are not just pet caregivers; they are true animal lovers who go above and beyond to ensure every dog feels like a VIP. The facility is clean, spacious, and equipped with everything a dog could dream of, from cozy beds to fun toys and engaging activities. What sets Paw Pals apart is their personalized care and attention to each dog's individual needs. Whether it's playtime, socialization, or just some extra cuddles, the staff always make sure every dog is happy and comfortable. I have complete peace of mind knowing that my furry companion is safe and having a blast at Paw Pals The regular updates and photos they provide throughout the day are a wonderful touch that keeps me connected and reassured. If you're looking for a top-notch doggie day care where your pet will be treated like family, look no further than Paw Pals . I highly recommend them to any pet parent seeking a safe and loving environment for their furry friend. Thank you, paw Pals , for being a home away from home for my beloved pet!
Paw pals exceeded our expectations! This was our first experience boarding our extremely nervous dog and the entire staff took such good care of our dog and our family! They sent two report cards a day with a written and picture update and made us feel so at ease while we were away on our vacation. Our family would highly recommend paw pals to anyone looking for care for their dog!! We will absolutely be using them again in the future and appreciate all the love and care that they put into caring for animals!
Melanie is awesome!! She took such great care of my pit/lab mix on a regular basis. It was comforting to know “my baby” was in amazing hands. Melanie is super friendly, professional, and genuinely cares. It’s obvious she loves what she does. I HIGHLY recommend Wags to Whiskers Pet Care!!
We use Wags to Whiskers for dog walking services. Melanie is great with our frenchie/pug mix, Mochi. She's reliable, flexible, and very communicative.
We love Wags to Whiskers! Whenever Gus has visited, he immediately felt comfortable! Mel is a true professional and gives extra attention to each pup under her care. The homemade biscuits are an added bonus!
Melanie is great & my Great Dane loves her! She is always quick to reply, is prompt with timing, and very passionate about pet care.
Kind responsible and understanding highly recommend. Finding a good dog walker doesn’t come easy so happy with their service.
Sorry but I think you have the wrong business. Your name isn't in my customer file.
Pedro is an excellent dog walker. I have recommended him many times to neighbors and friends without hesitation. He is very attentive, reliable, and caring. I have a senior dog that Pedro has been taking care of (because a great dog walker does more than just walk your dog) for the last four years. He is incredibly patient and loving as she begins to slow down in her golden years. I’m grateful everday I leave the apartment knowing Pedro will be there to exercise and spend time with my beloved dog.
I couldn't be happier with Pedro and Hot Paws Pet Care. My pup can be a bit of a handful so I was a bit nervous about finding a walker for her, but I knew from the moment I met Pedro that she would be in good hands! Pedro is *obviously* a dog-lover and has a lot of patience. He is also extremely communicative and reliable; he has NEVER not shown up for a walk and has never canceled on us. It is SUCH a relief not having to worry about my dog while I'm at work! I also always receive text updates about the walk, which is great. All I know is that my dog absolutely adores Pedro. BOTTOM LINE: You can't go wrong with Hot Paws Pet Care. P.S. While Pedro is our every day walker, I have met two other walkers with Hot Paws Pet Care and both were great, too! It was important to me that my dog could expect the same walker every single day, which Pedro accommodated, but for two days during which Pedro was out of town we had sub walkers. Pedro was gracious enough to give plenty of notice about his trip AND set up a time for me and my dog to meet the sub walkers beforehand to make sure everything would be good. SO appreciate Hot Paws Pet Care's commitment to its clients and the fact that it always puts the dogs first! THANK YOU!
We had Pedro dog-sit our 2 dogs at our wedding recently at Wave Hill in the Bronx. He was TREMENDOUS! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter. He was amazing to work with and such a great guy. He took phenomenal care of our dogs (1 big dog and 1 little dog). The dogs were honestly upset to be leaving his care at the end of the night. Pedro was a class act. He dressed incredibly well and was such a pleasure to work with. We were so happy we found him!
Pedro has been taking care of our Jack Russell since 2013 and she absolutely loves him. Since Pedro has been with us, we've noticed a reduction in our dog's anxiety around other dogs (and even people), and he and Vincent have always demonstrated a genuine care for her well-being. We feel very fortunate that we found such a trustworthy, reliable, and attentive dog walking service.
Pedro is a total professional and a pleasure to work with. He took care of our cats while we were away for the holidays. He not only made sure our cats were fed and their litter cleaned, but he also played with the cats every time he was there, gave us text updates, and even was kind enough to bring in our mail. We enjoyed our vacation that much more knowing our kitties were in good hands while we were away. Can't recommend Pedro and Hot Paws enough - he treats your pets like they were his own! Thanks again, Pedro!
Pedro and Hot Paws is the best! He has taken care of my dogs for 7 years. When I needed him he was there and when I went on vacation. My dogs love him too and he's a total dog lover and understands them. I totally trust him and his professionalism. Thanks Pedro!!
Pedro has been walking our dog for the past year and we absolutely love him and Hot Paws! He is such a caring, responsible, and professional individual and just a pleasure to work with. Since he has come in to our lives, we have felt so much relief knowing that our pup is well taken care of and happy. He has strong communication skills and updates you on your pup daily. When we need to go away, he stays at our apartment and I don’t worry because I know our dog is in great hands! Our dog absolutely loves him as well and gets so excited when she sees him. Highly recommend Hot Paws for your furry loved ones!
Pedro and Vincent have been walking my large, lazy dog for nearly 2 years. He is professional, flexible and easy to work with. He is always cheerful and pleasant and really cares about our dog. Our dog can be quite resistant to getting off the couch to walk during the day - especially in the summer or if it's raining - and Hot Paws can always get him happily out the door. They are awesome and a real asset to the neighborhood!
I hired Pedro to take care of my GSD while I was working out of state. Pedro did an excellent job taking care of my pride and joy. He promptly gave me updates every time he completed a walk and kept me up to date on his mood. I even got to FaceTime with my dog which I think help put both our minds at ease. Even though my dog isn’t too happy when I go away at least I know someone I can call to make sure he’s safe and happy. Thank you Pedro!
The Hot Paws Pet Care team is amazing!!! Pedro has been walking my cockapoo Gigi for a few years now and she absolutely adores him! He’s so loving, playful and understanding with her! He doesn’t just come and walk her, he actually takes the time to play with her and talk to her. It’s clear to see that he loves dogs and that’s evident in the love and care he gives each one of his client dogs. He is responsible, reliable and flexible with his schedule. There aren’t enough words to express my delight and appreciation for how he treats my Gigi. I 100% recommend the whole How Paws Pet Care team!
We were going overseas for 2 weeks and our pet sitter backed out. My son was worried about his Bearded Dragon, Xerxes. Jeff was available at short notice for us to come and "ok" the spot that Xerxes would have while we were away. He was very understanding with a nervous 14 year old! When we came back to drop her off, he had even researched more info online about Bearded Dragons - she was his first one! While we were away he texted pics and updates. He had to cut fresh food daily and remember to turn on and off different lights/heaters each morning and evening. Jeff was wonderful and saved the day. Xerxes did great and we were able to enjoy our trip. Thanks Jeff!! We will definitely use Preppy Pet again!
Our Jack Russell rescue is an active, high energy dog, who needed to learn basic commands and also how to play with other dogs. We've been bringing him to Jeff every Saturday for about six months for socialization and basic training. Our little buddy has become much less aggressive with other dogs and now sits without me having to tell him to! We bring him up to Preppy Pet (from the Bronx!) every week because we know he. Is. Loved, trained and has a great time! We’ve also used the boarding services. Jeff’s prices are great and the service can’t be beat! Jeff is flexible and he and the staff truly care about the dogs. If your dog needs a day to run around and play and “just be a dog”, bring him to Jeff. Your pooch will come home, drink from his bowl and call it a night! 🐾🐶🐾
Jeff takes care of my dog on all vacation trips throughout the year . He sends me videos and pictures to put me at ease that my Rosie is happy . Jeff is very personable and attentive to my dogs needs . Reasonable priced and good service !
Preppy Pet (Orangeburg location, formerly located in Nanuet) has made a huge impression on me and my husband. After searching high and low to find a trusting place to board our sweet female German shepherd, handsome male German shepherd, and smiley male Golden Retriever we decided on Preppy Pet. From the first initial phone call, they were very patient when answering our list of questions and concerns. They were very reassuring and made us feel that we are bringing our dogs to a place that will treat them like their own. The drop off was very smooth, as Jeff and his staff took our dogs in one by one to get used to their temporary home for the next several weeks. Jeff (who is the owner) spent as much time as we needed going through the specific feeding directions for our three dogs, as one of our German shepherds needs special medication administered in order for her body to properly digest her food. Shortly after drop off, Jeff and his staff would send us videos and photos of our dogs. I could tell they were having a great time from the start, by their ear to ear smiles and wagging tails. I knew we had chosen the best place for our dogs to be well cared for. You can tell that the staff truly loves animals. The love and compassion could be felt right through the videos. I am so happy we chose Preppy Pet to board our 3 dogs, and highly recommend them to anyone looking for services that they offer. (They also offer services such as grooming, and day care!) Boarding your animals is never easy, but Preppy Pet made it so much better for us. They are very reasonably priced, they are very honest, and they have the best team! Thank you to everyone at Preppy Pet! We will be returning in the future! 5 + stars!!!!
my dogs Daisy and Tippy came here multiple times for boarding day care and baths the staff was great! and very kind they did a great job with the bath and nail clippings and even sent me pictures!
My baby boy loves going to daycare here! Whenever he realizes we are on the way he howls and howls. Once we arrive he drags me to the door. He love being able to play with other pups. Preppy Pet is the only daycare, boarding, and grooming provider that we would choose.
I’ve been boarding my two dogs, Nigel and Lily at Preppy Pet over the last few years. Jeff has always been super reliable and accommodating. Each time I pick the dogs up they are happy, well fed, and tired from playing. When I drop them off to stay at preppy pet they don’t even look back, they are so excited to return to hang out with their friend Jeff & co. We will definitely miss them as we move out of state but are happy to know how loved and cared for Nigel & Lily were during their many stays at Preppy Pet.
My go to for dog boarding ! Jeff the owner loves his animals and takes good care of my dog pepper. Staff is super friendly. Been going for couple years now! Pepper loves it!
We have been dropping our pit bull Cocoa at Preppy Pup for around a year now. People get nervous when they see pit bulls and unfairly judge them based on their reputations (not going to call out any other day cares in the area by name…….). That is not the case with Jeff and the staff at Preppy Pup. The whole team treats Cocoa for who she is, a very loving, happy and playful girl who doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body….though she still has endless amounts of puppy energy! Cocoa is always so excited to go. When we ask her “do you want to go see Jeff today?” she instantly “smiles” and shakes her butt and when we pick her up she is completely exhausted from a day of play!
Our two dachshunds have had many wonderful stays with Preppy Pet! Preppy Pet owner, Jeff, gave great care to our senior dogs, making sure to follow all best practices for keeping them healthy and safe. They really love all pets and all feel welcome. With typical boarding structure, filled with many dogs, cats, and others, you will probably smell the clients, that's a good thing-no toxic disinfectants or perfumes, you can leave your pets with ease of mind, they are safe and in good company!
We've had a great experience with Fetch! I don't like sending my pup to a kennel, I prefer to send her to a home. Diane with Fetch has kept her for us a few times now and it's always been a very positive experience. Zelda comes home happy, calm and relaxed every time.
We have been using Fetch for over 10 years now and have not had a single bad experience. We have used several sitters and all have been wonderful. Fetch makes boarding your dog a treat for the owners and the pups. Recommend this service very highly.
Had a last minute and unusual pet sitting situation. Owner was extremely responsive, called me to discuss the situation and made arrangements catering to our needs. Very good communication, reliable and made us feel very comfortable. Will continue to use them in the future! Highly recommend.
We have been using Mike as our dog walker. He is the best!! He is great with our 2 dogs. They absolutely love him!! He gives me daily updates on how they did on their walks. We also have a few cats and one had surgery and when Mike came to walk our dogs he would also give a little extra love to him and also let me know how he was doing when he was there. Fetch is awesome!! I would recommend them to anyone.
I have been using Fetch pet care for many years and I could not say enough about how helpful and flexible they have been. On occasion I have called for a scheduled dog walk last minute for later that day and they have always been able to accommodate me. They have terrific staff that stay in my home when I travel and keep in touch with me while I’m gone. They are organized and professional and I can go to work knowing my dog will be well taken care of. Susan Wallace
I have used Fetch in Boise, Idaho and Burbank, California and was very impressed with the quality of the pet sitters in each city. Then I used Fetch in Ridgewood and was not disappointed! The pet sitters were easy to work with but, most of all, they treated my dog like their own. When I picked up my dog, Buddy, from an overnight with Amy, I knew she passed the test with flying colors because as I held my dog and was saying goodbye, he leaned over and licked Amy right on the nose. Better than the Good Housekeeping seal of approval!!
Fetch really is the best. We've used them for almost 2 years now and I'm so glad that our neighbor recommended them to us. They are always there when we need them, even when it has been last minute. I'm always amazed at how quickly they respond to emails and texts when I need a last minute walk or visit. Our primary sitter is amazing with our dog and on the very rare occasion when she is not available they have a backup team (who our dog got to know in advance) that is equally fantastic. Can't say enough nice things and I honestly don't know what we'd do without them.
Fetch Pet Care made sure my cat was well attended while I was on vacation. This was my first time using a pet care service and Janice answered all my questions and put me at ease. Nicole did a great job and was very reliable. I will definitely be using them again in the future!
Dealing with Janice at Fetch and Debbie our sitter/walker that was assigned to us was one of the more enjoyable encounters we've had with outside contractors. And when it comes to leaving your dog's care in the hands of others, its not always the best experience. Dealing with Fetch was the exception, they were Super Great!
Highly recommend Fetch. Theresa is an exceptional person who treats my pups as if they were her own. They get so excited when they see her. Service is always prompt and efficient, even for last minute walks. Thank you!
