Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
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.
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
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.
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, $20/week per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
This is where we adopted our rescue pup JOJO from. It was a great experience, the staff was great and the process was fast. They sent us off with food collar and all her paper work and care instructions. She’s a handful and so loving. Now her and our kitten are best friendemies. I pretty sure all they adopted animals there are fixed too.
Our adopted ♥️ Hudson and his dad
We took our English Bulldog here. We are about 1/4 mile from them. I had a great conversation with the owner. She was sweet, professional and nice. Matt from what we can see was treated fantastically. We highly recommend them.
Once again, a terrific experience. The facility is clean and the staff is caring and attentive. I hope that anyone who uses Holiday Tyme will leave the staff a generous tip. They deserve it. It's so nice to be able to go away and not worry about your pets care and safety. Thank you, Holiday Time. We will be back again.
I have left my rottie here several times and they've always taken good care of her. They have separate stalls and an outdoor area. The staff is great and caring. Don't hesitate to leave your loved pooch there! Grooming is also available.
3 stars because the staff is very nice but our dog came back with a severe sinus infection. She is up to date with shots and has been boarded before with no issues. Unfortunately we won’t be back.
Fantastic grooming by Melissa; Minnie looks perfect and was in high spirits even after her meeting with the evil hair dryer, which is no small feat! Thank you for your care and professionalism!
Very professional and they treat the dogs like their own. The answer all your questions, and even help out rescue organizations!! Love this place, and so do my two mutts!
Our 2 yr. old Rottweiler, Ginger, Loves staying at Holiday Tyme Pet Hotel. The staff and owner are very sincere and outgoing. Heated in winter, clean, just a nice place...
My dog was some what shy coming out of kennel. Lose his energy , like something happen to him from the Stay ! He is a different dog Now !!! Has no energy or qant to play , like he always did before the Kennel !!!!
We used Dogward Bound for years with both our German Shepherds who loved coming here. However, that was when Vincent- the owner and a certified dog trainer- ran the place. However, after recent management changes with Vincent nowhere to be found/seen AND our pup returning from here with a serious injury requiring surgery- we will not be using or recommending this facility. It’s unfortunate but it’s just the way things go with a 24-year old with no training in charge of several dogs at one time. Wish they would update their website!
We've used Vincent and Michelle at Dogward Bound for three years now, and it's comforting to know that our dogs are in good hands when there's a family vacation and we can't bring them along. Our two goldens board together, and one has epilepsy with special medication which needs to be given twice a day. Vincent and his wonderful staff make our dogs feel at home and go above and beyond to provide loving attention. Thanks so much and and keep up the great work!
Been taking my dogs to Dogward Bound for about a decade, and can't say enough good things about them.They have stayed for a few days or up to three weeks and I know they'll be treated like honored guests rather than just someone elses pets. To me the most unique advantage is the socialization aspect the dogs enjoy rather than just plain boarding or day care. They come home happy and tired, both great things
Dogward bound is BEYOND awesome. We have been boarding our dogs with Vin for over 5 years and I wouldn't take them anywhere else. Our now senior rotti/shepherd mix has a severe case of separation anxiety and would be a mess when we picked him from the vet or previous boaring situations. Now I pick up calm, happy and TIRED dogs. Vin truly is the leader of the pack and the dogs (even my stubborn old man) follow him without thinking twice. Simply the best!!
We have boarded our 3 guys with Dogward Bound a few times over the past 2 years. They just came home today after a 4 day visit and had a wonderful stay! The staff is very friendly and great with the dogs. I love that our boys can stay in a suite together. Drop off and pick up is very easy. And I think they are very affordable compared with others in the Westchester/Putnam area. I highly recommend Dogward Bound!
Hi all! Our Rocky has a great time running around on top of your mountain!! He gets great exercise there out with you! Beagles need it!!! I wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your additional staff Morgan is great! She is on it! sweet/friendly and great with Rocky BOTH her and Mary have been great with drop offs and pickups. Great additions from our last stay! We have been using Dogward Bound for over 3 years and with our faith in you it is the only way we get to travel and go to family events weddings etc. even got to go to ITALY for 9 days with the whole family knowing our Rocky was safe and sound with Vinny - only one to trust as he is an escape artist at Dogward Bound and gets to run around in such a large area!
I have boarded my pups for over 6 years with Vinny. I started with one senior rescue and have since added 4 more. They are small and stay together. I feel comfortable leaving them in such good hands. The pups have different medical issues and needs, and they are given great care. I highly recommend boarding/day care at Dogward Bound.
UPDATE: We put our German Shepherd and his beloved Mini-pincher companion in kennel for a week while we were on holiday. As usual they came back happy and healthy. Added bonus, our shepherd is so difficult he has always been apprehensive with anyone outside the immediate family. My wife and I noticed he gave goodbye kisses to both of the staff that helped them to the car. Can't say enough about Dogward bound. Absolutely, Positively the best dog boarding facility in the Lower Hudson Valley. I have a difficult German Shepherd to board and this place is the only kennel I've found staffed and equipped to deal with him. Vinny is Excellent. The dog comes home happy and healthy to boot. They are second to none.
Recently started boarding my two pup kids at Dogward Bound and from the initial phone call I was impressed with their professionalism and caring, friendly manner. At drop off those positive vibes continued. The girls are fantastic, so kind and caring and just a joy to talk with - you can tell they like what they do and care about the pets. My dogs walk in happy and don't look back at "mom" and when they're picked up they are in good spirits and healthy. I know my pups will continue to stay at DB for yeas to come and highly recommend trusting them with your four legged family members.
You can tell that the people who work here care about your dogs as much as you do. I boarded both of my dogs, and one of them has some behavioral issues so I was a little worried about how he would do, and how they would handle him. When I arrived, a nice guy came and got my dogs, and my dogs tails were wagging and they didnt even look back as they were walking away. When I picked them up, I got a great report for both of my dogs and they were tired and slept on the drive back. You can tell they were not stressed nor anxious and that they had a fun time. I will 100% recommend and I have already. Best place to board if you want to know that your dogs are in good hands!
Ace is SO happy! He passed his evaluation at Pawsatively Petastic and now can go to daycare and boarding at this fabulous place! 15,000 square feet of CAGE FREE boarding where dogs of all sizes romp and play, both indoors and outdoors! This is like heaven on earth for dogs and Ace didn’t want to leave. I HIGHLY recommend this doggie daycare/boarding for anyone in the Westchester and Putnam area - you WON’T be disappointed! We’ve known the owners Lia and Ray for a long time, even back before they had this facility when they provided pet care in their own home. They are wonderful people, will treat your dogs like their own family, and will provide so much enrichment to your dog’s life through play and socialization with other dogs in a state of the art (however affordable) facility! ❤️
I had my multi-Pooh boarded with positively neglectful Daycare , for three nights. I did hear that there were some issues, but it was last minute and against my better judgment I sent him. ,When I picked him up on Saturday. he seemed disorientated as if he didn’t know where he was or who I was.At this point he was walking fine. I got him home a couple of hours later he couldn’t even walk. It seemed as if something wore off . He was in extreme pain. He would not walk. I could not touch his back or his shoulders legs and paws. He just cried. I was mortified and took him to the vet immediately. She said he was dehydrated and definitely something had happened. when I called the facility on Friday to see how he was doing, they said everything was fine. When I picked him up as soon as we got home he also started with stomach problems throwing up diarrhea and blood in his diarrhea. I paid $428 to the vet. I placed my dog in their care thinking he was going to be taken care of and safe, they refused to take any responsibility. They said I signed a waiver, which apparently gives them a license to abuse dogs. I see there’s some good reviews here but believe me I’ve heard some terrible ones I would definitely never ever bringing your dog there. Unfortunately dogs can’t talk . If mine could I would love to hear what was done to him . They put the big dogs outside in the dead of summer and is all you hear is barking consistently I believe in my heart that something is not right at that facility and I am going to look into it. It’s not acceptable to treat or neglect animals because someone signed a waiver. !!!!!!!!!’
These owners are loving people who are diligent and have the best interest for the pet in their comfort and safety and happiness. On top of that they run a successful business and not only keep best interest of the pet, but really secure a wonderful feeling for the pet owners.Safety and security and healthy atmosphere is what you will see here! Super nice honest people… can’t say enough! Just picked up my two large dogs from 3 day vacation…. These dogs of mine run free at my home on 2.5 acres……every day and still wine cry etc. Tonight? We picked up? My dogs are happy Healthy and zonked!!! They had tons of friends to play with with Amazing environment! So grateful and so thankful we have people and a place we can finally trust!
I was looking over 2 years to find a daycare for my puppy which is a Doberman and every place I called wouldn’t take my puppy until I called Pawsitively and they took a chance on Xena and I am just thrilled how much she loves going here. The owners and the staff love Xena . I moved and I am driving a little more because I know Xena loves this place. I take her for daycare and boarding. I trust them 100 percent, maybe one day Xena will let them give her a bath and cut her nails Lol.
Marcelo grabs his collar and is ready to go when he hears “let’s go see Raymond at pawsitively”. It’s his home away from home. Only people I trust with my boy. He goes in by himself most of the time and announces his grand arrival!! Comes home happy and exhausted. 5 wagging tails for pawsitively and EVERYONE who works so incredibly hard to take such great care of these pups.
Daisy loves pawsitively petastic. She can't wait to get in the door to see her doggie friends. She's happily exhausted when she comes home with a smile and tail wagging when we say doggie day care.
I left my dog here for overnight boarding for 6 nights. It was her first time being with people and a bunch of other dogs that he didn’t know. I called two days in a row to check on him and I was glad they didn’t sugar coat anything. They were honest with me about how nervous he was. But after a few days he did great. When I picked him up he was ready to go back inside and even went to one of the coworkers to get a kiss before he left. They are so sweet and it’s an awesome place. We will be using them again in the future.
Star and I found our other loving family right under our nose on Route 6. Star is very social and playful but truly thinks she is the size of a Toy Poodle. Apparently something happened in her early formative years that causes her to be shy with dogs her size. I explained all of this to Lia, Ray, Emily and Maryann and they accommodate us by allowing Star to mingle with the "littles" and the medium size dogs. She firmly reminds me at 6:00 am when it's her doggy day care day and waits not- so- patiently as I get ready. She can't wait to go visit her friends, both human and canine, and comes home happy and exhausted. The folks at Pawsitively treat both of us like family and we couldn't have found a more loving, caring place to care for our wonderful greyhound. Try it for a day or for an overnight stay. You and your dog will be hooked! There is no better place.
My GSD is so happy here. He gets so excited when we arrive he doesn’t even hesitate to go with the staff. He is even happy when we board him. Lia and Ray and their staff clearly love the animals and the environment is clean and comfortable. I highly recommend this business.
I have been bringing Sadie here for some time now for one a week daycare and socialization, and have used them for overnight boarding a few times. To put it bluntly, alI have to say in the morning is , "Do you wanna go play with friends" and she would drive herself there if she could. She LOVES it. and when I pick her up , I get a fully exhausted and had a full day of play pup :)
Our dog, Barbara, who has SO MUCH energy loves going to Shepard and Grey Daycare (as shown in the photo). She gets excited even when driving up to Daycare. We have not found anyone as caring, loving and responsible as John at S&G! We've even boarded Barbara (who has never been boarded before), and she loved it. John also sends photos from the day and it's clear how much the dogs love playing and spending time with each other at S&G. Most of all, they get such an array of activity and space that allows your dog to be well socialized.
Fantastic facility! We've taken our senior dog (a rescue) to Shepherd and Grey since we got her, and that was shortly after the daycare/guest house opened. John is fantastic to work with, and his guesthouse is like a spa for our girl -- she relaxes in the sun room, enjoys walks on this gorgeous property, barks at squirrels, and watches the younger pups play. We especially appreciate the pictures and videos John sends us each day. You will not find better care anywhere in our area. Highly recommend!!!
We were a long way from home for a wedding in Beacon, NY and didn't want to leave our poodle, Max, behind. Shepherd and Grey's is very impressive, architecturally, with three levels and windows looking out to wooded mountains all around. The rooms are equipped as if dogs with credit cards furnished them: a real bed (if that's what your dog is comfortable with) plus a variety of cozy spaces and toys. John makes sure to take sociable dogs (ours is very gentle and an "only child" so he was excited to be in the company of other members of his tribe). I especially appreciate that this daycare/guesthouse for pets is a labor of love, because we are careful with Max, who is innocent as a child, and only wants to love us (and swipe the occasional tomato if given half a chance!) Highly recommended, Thanks again!
We can't believe how lucky we were to find John. We have a very nervous dog who doesn't do well away from us. He worked hard to make her feel comfortable and relaxed at his house. She looked forward to going every day. Most importantly, John went above and beyond to work with our ever changing work schedules allowing us to come early/ late to get her or would pick her up or drop her off if we needed him to. We can't express how great he is and how thankful we are for his service.
Shepherd and Grey is unlike any other dog care service I've used. It's a small, residential business, and they only take six dogs at once—which is a perfect group size for me. My dog, Sprout, gets plenty of exercise and socialization there, but she's also not overwhelmed by constant chaos or stimulation. I know the dogs play a lot but also rest, because John (the owner) sends me several photos and videos each day that Sprout is there. The areas where the dogs hang out are beautiful and always clean (check out the sunroom!), and S&G features a huge property for the dogs to hike around and relax outside. And John obviously has a way with animals... my dog adores him, and I can tell he loves her, too. If you're looking for a really special pet care service you can trust, with lots of individualized attention, then definitely give Shepherd and Grey a look.
During this extended closure, I am concerned for small businesses in the Hudson Valley, and Shepherd and Gray is one of our favorite staples of the area. If you are looking for a safe place for your dog to stay, if you have any reservations about being separated from your best friend, S&G will put all your worries at ease. We first went to John when we were planning our wedding - we wanted Penny to travel with us and share our special day, but it just wasn't feasible. And everyone we would trust her with was going to be at the wedding, so we were at a loss. The minute we stepped on the S&G property with Penny we knew it was the place for her. The facility is clean, John is very thorough with paperwork, making sure all dogs are up to date on vaccinations, and the property is beautiful and well maintained. My husband and I knew Penny would be safe and well cared for. Plus, John sent us daily updates, pictures, and videos. Penny is the smiling white lab in the photo and she can't wait to go back and play with friends once the social distancing ends!
Shepherd and Grey (S&G) provides exceptional care of your pet. We had a sudden need to kennel our dog for a few days. Our dog was very accustom to me being home with her every day. It has also been a few years since we have been to the dog park and we have not needed daycare or boarding since we moved to this area. My first concern was to make sure our girl had a positive experience. She is a big goof and this was going to be a big change in her routine. S&G 's owner, John, is wonderful to work with and provides the very best care in a calm, safe home-like environment. We were able to schedule a meet and greet as well as a half-day stay for a test run before we went out of town. So many great reasons to choose S&G: 1) all pet guests are current on vaccines 2) small number of dogs to ensure safe high-quality care 3) owner understands canine personalities 4) committed to providing an excellent experience for both the owner and their pet guests 5) daily photos and updates of your pet's stay. I have worked in pet care and welfare, there are several options for traditional boarding and kennel facilities. S&G is different, it truly is a guest house for your pet. We are so pleased with S&G we now schedule daycare visits just to let our girl socialize and get some hikes in, even when we are working from home. If you want more than a kennel experience for your pet, or more than a 10 minute dog walk while you are working, I highly recommend Shepperd & Grey Daycare & Guesthouse. Your pet's happiness is so worth it.
We board our black lab at Shepherd and Grey when we go away on vacation and absolutely love it. John is so hands on and really cares for any dog he is taking care of. We love that our dog has access to plenty of outdoor space, gets tons of walks and exercise on a daily basis and most of all is being cared for by a dedicated and experienced dog owner. I do not have to worry when I leave my dog with John. He treats her like his own!
My husband and I were expecting a baby and needed someone to watch our dog. Since we didn't know exactly when and for how long we'd need to board her, typical boarders were not ideal since you have to give exact dates. Luckily I found Shepherd and Grey online - John was willing to accept our booking without a definite date and was super flexible of the length of stay given our circumstances. We also loved the home feel for our dog instead of being placed in a kennel all day. We would 100% use S&G again and recommend them to friends. Very happy we found them!
John has been watching my dog for over 5 years and I have nothing but great things to say about his dog day care services. He treats my dog like his own and ensures he gets plenty of exercise, attention and love. I highly recommend using Shepherd and Grey for your dog day care needs. You won’t be disappointed!
April and staff are the best ! my baby has been going there for years sometimes up to 3x a year ! … she always takes great care of him! he has diabetes and needs insulin 2x a day ! she is the only one I trust to do it ! I wouldn’t go any place else !!
Pet Pleasers is a fantastic place to bring your fur babies, I wish i could give 10 stars! I boarded 2 of my cats and 1 dog while on vacation for a week here. My babies were so happy to see April, she is so kind and really cares about these animals! We have been coming here for as long as i can remember!! If you need to leave your dog/cat with someone while you’re away DEFINITELY COME HERE!
My dogs came back in pretty bad shape. Open sores on one dog’s legs and both dogs seemed traumatized. Our husky’s tail was down for over a week. It’s always up. They eventually recovered. I would not go back. This was 2 years ago but my review disappeared.
Best place in the area. My dog actually gets excited when he recognizes where we're going. April and the Pet Pleasers team always go out of their way to accommodate schedules when at all possible, and pay such close attention to the dogs that when I've picked him up after a stay, their notes have helped me keep my pup healthy. Would recommend 100%.
I bring Spencer to April when ever i go away he loves it there always comes back happy. It is clean and well maintained I highly recommend Pet Pleasers
This place is the best! My dog has a challenging personality and they are fantastic handling him. Very professional and they really cater to the pets specific needs. He always comes home happy and healthy. Highly recommended!!
The owner is great. She sat with the dogs during a storm. They really care for your pet.
I love this place and they love your pet. Clean, friendly and knowledgble about your pets needs and personality. More than a reasonable price for the care that is received.
My dog 🐶 enjoys going here when I have to go out of town. The staff is friendly and is happy to answer any questions I have. I have used them several times already and plan to continue to do so in the future as needed. I was disappointed the one time as they were booked up so I had to take my pup elsewhere. He did so much better at pet pleasers. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that asks me for a place. Thanks again to the staff for making my pup comfortable.
The owner is very knowledgeable and has taken great care of our special needs dog.
Our rescue dog, Finn, has stayed at Marta's Vineyard Canine Resort for boarding several times this year, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. The staff is wonderful and truly cares about the dogs' well-being, making sure each one gets the attention they need. Since Finn loves playing with other dogs, we added a playdate option, which he absolutely loves. Although we always feel a bit guilty going on vacation without him, the video updates (optional add) —beautifully done—make all the difference. And you may spot your dog(s) having a blast on their social media posts. Seeing how much fun Finn has each day at Marta’s gives us peace of mind. Thank you Marta's Vineyard!
Our pup, Piggy loves when she gets to stay with her friends at Marta’s Vineyard. Piggy tends to prefer people to dogs, and thankfully, the facilities at Marta’s are set up to accomodate Piggy’s preferences. She gets her own large indoor suite that also includes an outdoor area. Totally perfect for our girl. The team at Marta’s is friendly and welcoming and they treat Piggy like family. Marta’s is a true gem. Highly recommend them to care for your pets.
My three pups love their vacation at Marta's Vinyard when we go on vacation. I know my babies are getting great care and having fun. The team at Marta's Vinyard are the best.
Marta's Vineyard is the BEST! I always know my dogs are in great hands when I am away thanks to Marta's. Once, one of my dogs needed medical attention during his stay. First of all, the fact that the staff noticed immediately that a vet visit was in order shows how attentive they are, and then, they took care of everything as if they were caring for their own dog. Five stars for sure!!
We got our pup 5 years ago and haven't been on a real vacation out of state without her. We left her for 5 days/nights and she was well loved. Since it was her first time being boarded, we paid for some extras, but in my opinion it was worth every penny. She came out so happy to see us, but also wanted to go back into the resort. It was a great experience for her and us. In the middle of our trip we got the video sent to us. That video made me feel more comfortable and it was easy to see she was being taken care of.
I can’t say enough great things about our first experience at Marta’s! We were visiting from out of state and needed somewhere to keep our pup safe for the day while we went to some appointments! Our pup is only 6 months so we were nervous to need to send him anywhere but he absolutely loved it! We can’t thank Marta’s enough for taking great care of him and squeezing him in for a bath while he was there. We now would absolutely take the drive to have him stay again if we needed care for him!
I have only wonderful things to say about Marta's Vineyard. I send my newly adopted, very active standard poodle to Marta's for daycare and the experience couldn't be more positive - From the friendly attentive staff and the wonderful facilities, I would never think of sending her anywhere else. My dog returns home happy and tired!!
I’ve never boarded an animal in my life and I was SO nervous to leave our pup somewhere that wasn’t home! Not only was the entire staff patient with my one million questions but they were very informative and understanding of how nervous I was. But I was nervous for no reason. I got an email update complete with a picture clearly showing that he had the time of his life and I could easily tell when we picked him up that he was happy and not stressed. I’m so grateful that I have a reliable place that I can trust leaving my dog whenever we can’t bring him with us. I cannot say enough good things about this place!
My family started using Marta’s back around 2005 when we got our first family dog… and nearly 20 years later I still use Marta’s to board my dog when I go away. He comes back happy, loved on, and always having had a great spa day! Can’t say enough good things about how friendly and caring the staff are, and the level of care is unmatched. Simon is especially thrilled that he gets a toy to take home after his bath, and he loves wearing their bandanas!
A very professional, kind, caring, and detail-oriented business. I felt so comfortable and happy leaving my babies for the week. The video update was so cute. My daughter and I researched many boarding facilities and Marta's came out on top. I highly recommend them.
Eileen is absolutely fabulous and took care of our furbaby as if she were her own. Eileen sent multiple videos and pictures throughout the day, and our it was clear that our pup was having the time of her life. Our pup is also a very picky eater, and Eileen had her eating like a champion; we were truly amazed. It was so reassuring and comforting knowing that our pup was in Eileen’s care. We will be using her for all of our pet sitting needs!
I give Eileen and 24/7 Petcare the highest possible rating!! I don’t trust anyone with my dog. Eileen however earned my trust the day I first spoke with her. She truly understands canines and their behavior like a true professional! Now I feel comfortable leaving my Cooper with her when I can’t take him with me. I receive round the clock updates that keep my mind at ease, and Cooper loves being with Eileen. Cooper and I thank 24/7 Petxare and Eileeen! You are the best! P.S. Thank you for all the canine dietary advice too!
I am writing this review with such joy. My dog had such a good first time experience with Eileen. I was worried about this being her first time away from us and with a pet sitter. I wanted to make sure she was going to be happy and comfortable. I had a lot of questions for Eileen, and her answers made me feel comfortable with leaving my girl in her hands. We took a quick two night trip out of town, and wanted to see how our dog would do. We were hopeful it would go well because we have a week long cruise coming up in several weeks. Thankfully we were so pleased with the experience. Eileen sent us a ton of pics and videos throughout the stay. Seeing for ourselves that our dog was doing well really put our worries to rest. When we picked up our dog, she was not stressed or unhappy in any way. It was like she was at a family member’s house that she knew well. This really confirmed that we put her in good hands. This being my first experience with a pet sitter I know the stress that you feel and the worry you have. All you want is to find someone whom you and your pet can be comfortable and happy with. Eileen definitely provided that. I have already recommended her to a friend of mine, and I’m happy that we now have someone who is a great option for our dog. I feel like I can now be at ease knowing our dog will be in good hands while we are away on a longer trip. I would recommend Eileen and her services.
We had a fantastic experience with Eileen! We recently moved back to NYC and were looking for a dog sitter/boarding outside of the city. We specifically were looking for someone who would be hands on and attentive with our dog, and who had space for her to run and play — but we did not want a “camp” environment with too many dogs, kennels, etc. Eileen was very communicative through our booking process and throughout our pup’s stay with her. Beyond providing our dog with a great stay, she went above and beyond and provided helpful nutrition recommendations and guidance that we’ve since put into place. We could rest easy during our trip knowing that our pup was in good hands, and will definitely be booking with Eileen again!
Eileen is very responsive and thorough with the way she conducts her business. She was clear about the pricing and directions to the drop off location. Although the pricing is way higher than what I am used to - the money was well spent as my girl, Trixie, got the care and attention she needed while I was getting married. I would absolutely recommend this dog boarding service to anyone and would definitely be a return customer myself.
Eileen welcomes your dog into her family as one of theirs. Outstanding experience for dog and owner! My dog had new friends to play with, and I got so many pictures and videos from Eileen. Her home is exactly how you want your dog to be cared for. Eileen is also very knowledgeable about proper nutrition and dog foods that are actually good for your dog, which was so helpful for my finicky eater.
Eileen is amazing! She watched my mini Bernedoodle while my husband and I got married in a town nearby. Eileen sent pictures and videos so we knew he was in good hands. We also arranged for her husband to bring Snoopy to the ceremony so he could be there for pictures and walk down the aisle. They also helped recommend a new harness. Eileen is a dog lover for sure! I love that Snoopy doesn’t sleep in a crate, is well fed, has grass to run around, and is watched over by a true animal and dog lover. Would leave Snoopy there again for sure!
If you are searching for the best possible care for your fur baby, look no further. I don’t say this lightly. I feel so fortunate to have found Eileen. She takes the best possible care of my 5 month old puppy and her expertise/advice has been invaluable. Peace of mind is priceless and my mind is at total ease when my dog is with her. Not to mention my pup LOVES Eileen as evidenced by her fast wagging tail and excitement as soon as we pull in her driveway. I recommend 24/7 Petcare without reservation to anyone seeking superior care for their pet.
Eileen took amazing care of my poodle-pup Ollie while we were on a week+ long vacation last month. She was super responsive and the daily photo and video updates set my mind at ease knowing that Ollie was safe, happy, and having just as much fun as we were on vacation. I would absolutely recommend day or overnight care with Eileen and her family of pups, and know Ollie will be excited to return to hang out again with all of his new friends.
Eileen provided excellent pet care for our 5-year-old Border Collie Katie. We were sent many photos & videos & enjoyed watching Katie playing with her new friends. We could see Katie was in good hands & felt right at home. We highly recommend Eileen as she is knowledgeable, professional & a true animal lover! We will certainly be calling Eileen again the next time we are in need of pet care.
My dog LOVES this place! She literally jumps out of the car when we get to Unleashed. Jasmin, the owner loves all the animals, treating them as if they were her own. The staff is amazing and it shows how much they love and give the best care to the animals. I also appreciate how Unleashed is involved in community events and hosts fun days for the animals, like holiday pictures and birthday parties. A great home away from home for your pet.
I have been bring my two big double coated hairy dogs here sporadically over the past few years. They have always done an AMAZING job getting these fur balls cleaned up. I do appreciate the results. I need to remember to bring them more often!
They were very good with my little Annie and very good at keeping up with all her meds and eye drops. Really loved getting her report card and photos. They are the best
Love this place. my dog loves coming here, always comes home tired and ready for a nap which is exactly what we are hoping for. Staff is very friendly and they take great care of our pup! even love that they do private rooms for overnights so they dont have be left in a crate. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Firstly, the staff is amazing. Every time I talk to them it does as I’ve known them forever. My pup is wary about getting her nails done, but I don’t have to worry as the staff gently guides her in and does a wonderful job. Not to mention Tuesday is half off of the price. So I get her nails done and a great experience for an all in… including the tip, like $15. Can’t go wrong. ❤️
Met the owner who was so sweet! You can tell she really cares about the animals by the way she talks about them and goes into detail. She gets to know their personalities to provide the best care and experience for your pet.
Our pup Nola loves it. They provide great treats and snacks to spoil her!
The staff at unleashed are true animal lovers. They will care for your pets as their own. My dogs love it here and have so much fun. If you board your pets you will get a report card each night with pictures. I would highly recommend unleashed to anyone.
We have been sending our two pups to Unleashed for over a year now and they love it. It's an awesome facility. The staff and the owners are outstanding. I am always comfortable when our dogs are in their care. I highly recommend them for your doggie needs (including grooming!).
This is such a excellent place, have boarded our dog Halley many times here. The staff has such cool ways to keep you updated, such as sweet descriptions of your pets interaction with others, and the pictures are precious. Our Halley recently stayed here for 8 days and had a grooming ( which was a surprise for my wife) before pick up...Halley was absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend Unleashed Doggie Daycare.
Don began caring for Bella when we moved to CT in 2013. Over the years, Don has been a consistent part of Bella's world and given her stubborn streak, understands how to work with her effectively. She listens well to him and I've never had a reason to question the quality of care he provides. Don is dependable, customer centered and willing to help (even when business trips pop up at the last minute). Don has earned our trust and this review!
Maria and Don are the best! When I had surgery on my hand, I thought for sure I could stay home with my puppy. Starr and take care of her. Little did I know I would be in a HUGE bandage and my arm had to remain elevated above my head for days! I called Don and he came over to my apartment immediately and brought Starr home to his house where she stayed for three days! She was treated like family! Don is extremely reliable; sometimes coming twice a day to walk and/or feed her when I work late. Starr goes on walks with him, meets other dogs in our complex, and Don always leaves me a note about their time together. We are so appreciative of their loving care and expertise advise. Thank you Don & Maria! Marilyn, Brookfield, CT
Don has been walking my Rhodesian Ridgeback/Coon mix for over two years. He has a wonderful relationship with this rather ornery, hard to control dog. I would also like to commend Don for being extremely reliable regardless of weather conditions.
Don and Marie are great! Their expertise and caring is evident - Heidi gets so excited when she hears their car pull up.... I have a happy pet due to their services and training!
Don has been walking my rescue pup, Bowie since moving to Ridgefield in October 2017. Don is so good with Bowie; even putting his coat on him when it's cold out! It's so nice to know that I'm leaving my precious cargo in good hands. I highly recommend The Dog Tutor/Don to anyone looking for reliable, experienced pet care.
Don and Maria Henderson love dogs. When you start with this simple formula, both dog and owner are inspired and relieved at the same time. What I love about Don's Training (I use them for both pet walking and training), is that he is the real deal. No glamour, or TV show, he delivers results. Within a short period of time my dog (a very stubborn breed) was responding and behaving much better. HIGHLY recommend!
Don was referred by a friend who adores her dogs. She was right! My golden loves him and most importantly I trust him wholeheartedly to care for her.He is very easy to coordinate with and there has never been any issue with him about reliability. I have used Don on a daily basis and also have had Nilla stay with Don and Maria in their home. Maria even bakes for Nilla around the holidays!! Nilla is precious to our family and I feel that Don understands that!
We could not be happier with Don and Maria. Gizmo loves them! With our ever changing schedules we were very worried no one would want to work with us to get our little bud the extra attention and exercise he needs but they have been very patient with us. We know Gizmo is safe and happy when he is with them and we are very grateful.
Very responsive and knowledgeable about pets, Don & Maria were great and provided periodic updates, Cody returned home very happy, we will use their services again.
Don and Maria are fantastic and were perfect for our pet care needs.
Wonderful people! I have a very anxious dog who often takes a long time to trust new people let alone trust them enough to let them walk him. But Scott made a connection with our dog right away and could get him outside from the get go. A second shoutout for his flexibility with our constantly changing schedules!! Highly recommend.
Scott took such great care of our shy kitty and even got him to come out of hiding briefly, which is an accomplishment. He took the time to visit ahead of time to get to know us and familiarize himself with the house and cat needs. We came home to a happy and healthy kitty. We highly recommend him!
Dancing Paws is the best! Scott and his team always treat our dog with nothing but kindness. They are extremely reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend them.
Scott is great with our 7 year old Goldendoodle, Henry. He sends us pictures of Henry while they are walking and Henry is always happy to see Scott. Dancing Paws is dependable and reliable and always looking out for the best for our dog! I can relax leaving him with them.
Scott instantly feels like someone you know and have trusted for a long time. My dogs immediately took to him. The first meeting he was on the floor with my pup loving up on her like she was his. He has patience with my older dog and assists him as needed. It has been a great decision to use Scott to help care for my dogs when I am at work. You can tell he truly loves animals and what he does. He sends pictures and updates to let you know how they are doing while you are away from them. I highly recommend Scott, he will give you piece of mind and your pets will adore him as he adores them.
Fantastic experience with Dancing Paws when we went away for 10 days this summer. Alisha from Dancing Paws stayed in our home and took amazing care of our dog, cat, guinea pigs, bearded dragon and saltwater fish. We felt completely at ease knowing she was taking good care of everyone. Highly recommend.
Dancing Paws took care of our 12 year old cat while we were out of town for 2 weeks. They were amazing! They checked in with us often and sent pictures and videos of our lil guy. He looked so happy and playful that we were able to relax knowing he was in great hands!
So great to be able to travel and have peace of mind! Scott’s professionalism and love for animals was immediately evident. The dogs seemed a little disappointed when I came back. lol The ultimate compliment!
We are fortunate to have Scott and his dedicated team to care for our new puppy, Indigo. They are reliable, dedicated and caring. Indigo loves her daily playtime and walks. Texts after each visit let us know how she's doing. We are so fortunate to have people we can trust in our home and with our new puppy!
We have had exceptional service from Lisa! She stepped in when the going was rough with my two elderly dogs. My dogs are well cared for and loved which gives me peace of mind when I'm not able to be home.
We dropped our three dogs ( a husky 3yrs, a chocolate lab 6yrs old and a lab mix 3yrs old) off on July 26th early in the AM before we left for vacation, so if there was any issue they could contact us before we head out since our dogs have NEVER BEEN boarded before. They didn't contact us at ALL not even when we were on vacation to say there was an issue. When we returned to pick up our dogs I had asked if they can groom them before hand, they said no they didn't have time and the groomer isn't there on Tuesdays. Not knowing that the actual reason is because they were afraid of our dogs. They didn't even tell me there was issues with the dogs when I had called. It wasn't until my husband and oldest son went to pick them up that they told my husband that all three of the dog were "growling" at them so they couldn't let them out to relieve themselves, play etc. They didn't do ANYTHING that they stated would've been done for our three dogs. They couldn't even get in to "place" their food. Our husky was FILTHY, she's white and black so it was easier to see the fecal matter and urine staining her fur, because they were left in their kennels for the week they were there. They told my husband they had to hose the kennels from outside without obviously taken our dogs out of the kennel. NOW, ALL THREE OF OUR DOGS ARE RELIEVING THEMSELVES IN OUR HOME SO WE HAVE TO RETRAIN THEM. I just had my husband go in the attic to take out the crate. I will NEVER USE this place again. And obviously I don't recommend them at all. They need to have their employees trained on how to care for animals who are scared and weary of their surroundings, especially when they've never been boarded before in their entire life. We spent $1260 for all three to NOT be taken care of the way we were told they would be. These are precious members of our family and we thought they were going to be treated with affection and care. Don't use this place if you care for your pets. EDIT: Just got off the phone with Debbie and her husband Don clearly they're ALL ABOUT THE MONEY, not about taking care of your pets. He threw in my face that I'm like others who go on vacation, spend money and then have a big bill from the boarder and want to complain so I get money back!! He can wipe his butt with my $1,260.80 that we had to pay. And to think I was going to spend MORE money to have them groomed with them. If I could leave no stars it would be blank!!!
Used Country Club Kennels exclusively for my best friend (Wizard - Lab mix) during his final 10years, even though an hour round trip. Never a complaint. Debbie and staff were always caring and understanding. Kenneled elsewhere once and he came home with Kennel Cough. He was always eager to return to Country Club. I never considered cost, wanting the best for my dog.
We have boarded our dogs with Country Club kennels for years and have NEVER had a problem ! The owners, Debbie and Don are caring individuals and always ready to answer questions or phone calls when we are away ! We feel very comfortable leaving our pups with them !❤️
They took excellent care of my pup , I called why I was away and they took the time to answer my questions. Awesome place.
The owner, Don and Debbie along with their staff are very professional. First of all, they are the pet lovers. They took care of my aged dog very well. I had an opportunity to see their kennels, which are very very clean and no smell. Highly recommend this place.
I recently brought my German Shepherd to be groomed at Country Club Kennel. Audrey had done a fabulous job grooming her. She cut her dremelled her nails too. Her coat was super soft and smelled so good. Now she isn't shedding like crazy. Less cleaning for me 😀 I highly recommend Country Club Kennels for boarding and grooming needs.
We have boarded our dogs at Country Club since 1978, one cannot ask for a better facility. It is an onsite family run operation. The staff is knowledgeable, professional and most importantly treats your dog as if it were theirs. We were always confident that the animals were well cared for and in good hands. We could also always count on Audrey's grooming to make our Golden look perfect. We will greatly miss the Country Club family now that we have relocated to North Carolina.
We have been leaving our 2 dogs in this facility for the past 10 years, 1-3x a year for at least 7-10 days at a time. When I first visited, I was given a tour of the site, which I found to be very clean, unlike other places I’ve seen. The staff has always been courteous and pleasant upon drop off and pick up. I’ve never had an issue with the facility returning my calls. I even call them While I’m on vacation to check on the dogs and if they are not available, they always call me back. Neither dog has has an issue staying at this facility to date.
People in the office were EXTREMELY rude upon both drop off and pickup.. My dog smells like strong perfume-y shampoo or something.. and they never gave him his 2 toys I wanted him to have so he didn’t have as much anxiety being away from home. (I know because I left a treat inside of the Kong, which would be gone).
Used this as a last resort bc our kennel was booked up. They were so friendly and accommodating. My dog does not normally do well when being boarded. He came home and did so well. We will definitely be using country club kennels.in the future.
