This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
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!
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.
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
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.
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. ⭐
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, $5/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!
I have been going to Love Those Paws for cat sitting services since about 2016. They are always responsive, accommodating, and attentive. They have always followed instructions well, and leave detailed notes on how each and every visit goes. Over all these years, they have been immensely helpful for an anxious and disorganized cat mom with high maintenance fur babies.
We have been using Love Those Paws for over 10 years with our fur babies. We are very happy with them as the walkers love our Shiloh and treat her with love. They also love on our 2 cats and they love the walkers! It's such a relief to have them as they are so dependable and it's a daily relief for both my husband and I. We highly recommend their services for your fur babies also! ❤️
I've used Love Those Paws for over two years and could not be any more satisfied with their services. They are incredibly reliable and my golden retriever loves spending time with their staff. I work far from home on a regular basis so it's a huge relief to know my dog is in good hands with Love Those Paws. They make sure to provide a written summary each day which describes how the walk went and what time they arrived/departured. The owners, Annette and Stewart, have been an absolute pleasure to work with and have even watched my dog on many weekends when I'm away. In summary, this company provides quality services, can be counted on, and is affordable. I look forward to using Love Those Paws for years to come.
Love Those Paws is wonderful! The staff are fantastic and they really take the time to get to know your pet before they care for him/her. We had them watch our (animal-aggressive, but people-loving) dog while we were on vacation. We even thought we left our dog outside when we left and they went out quickly to check on him (he was inside). They left little notes about each visit and made sure we came home to a clean, happy dog. Visits are a good value and fairly priced - we highly recommend Love Those Paws and will use them again!
Love Those Paws have been helping me for about 8 weeks now and I am so pleased. Never a missed appointment, and the dogs have adjusted so nicely. Their mobility has improved because of the regular walking that they weren't getting before, and they seem happy and content. All of my instructions are followed exactly. The owner is very responsive to my messages, and completely flexible to our changing schedule. I highly recommend this company!
We’ve used Love those Paws for several years now and are so incredibly happy with their service! Our pups have loved all their walkers and are always so happy when we come home. Stewart works to make sure your dog has a regular walker or two to ensure they always get to see a familiar face. We recommend them to everyone who asks about dog walking!
We have been using Love those Paws for nearly two years to walk our two dogs. They have been nothing less than outstanding. The owners bend over backwards to help us. Our two dogs are walked daily and we have never had a complaint about our service. They employ very caring dog walkers who really enjoy the animals. We have even boarded our dogs on a couple occasions for a very reasonable price. They are able to adjust schedules to accodate last minute needs we have due to our work schedules as well. I would highly recommend their services. We employed Love those Paws two years ago after our last dog walking service forgot to come and walk our dogs. We have loved the service we received so much that we have referred them to several of our neighbors. Anyone who I know who have used this service has continued the use consistently,
I have been using Love Those Paws for almost seven years, and they are the best! They took care of my first dog Lulu before she passed away, then my second, Bruno and now my two Yorkies. My dogs are happy, they are well fed, and they LOVE the attention. I refer them to all my friends, family, etc. I have never trusted any service more than we trust Steve and Annette's "Love Those Paws" - They come into my house, and take well care of my house and dogs. Thank you so much for taking care of my babies and making vacationing stress free! GREAT COMPANY!
I've been thrilled with the personalized attention given to my dog and to me. I use the service once or twice a week. Owners of Love Those Paws have done a wonderful job reminding me that it's time to schedule walk(s) for the week. They conveniently use email for this and/or will give a gentle phone call reminder when scheduling has slipped my mind. The walkers leave personalized notes after each walk and follow directions from our intake conference to a tee. The owner came to my house to meet my dog and took copious notes on his care prior to agreeing to take my dog on as a client. I felt immediately comfortable with his knowledge and care and recommended Love Those Paws to another dog owner who was in need of care for her puppy in a very short turn around time due to circumstances beyond her control. Four paws up for this company. Although my posting name is "Walker" I am not a dog walker! That refers to the Avon Breast Cancer 60 mile walk I did years ago. The 3000 participants were loving referred to, and encouraged by the name Walker:)
I have been using Love Those Paws' dogwalking service for 8 months now and it's been great! My dog was a rescue so he was very anxious and afraid of new people and I was nervous about having a dogwalking service. However, everyone at Love Those Paws knew how to best approach him and help him feel comfortable. They are reliable and truly seem to care about the welfare of the animals.
Reilley & the PetFit team are the absolute best!! All of the walkers are very obviously animal lovers & always comment about how excited they are to see our girls each time we book them. We have been using their services since March 2022 when my husband had to start going back into the office 3-days a week. Ever since PetFit has been walking The Girls 1-2x per week. We have two huskies, so winter walks are no problem but we’re very careful & particular in the summer. PetFit is great at following our guidelines for summer walks. They take every safety precaution possible, which I am so grateful for as an owner. The post-walk reports are a bonus & make my day when they arrive in my inbox at work! I wouldn’t trust anyone else to walk our dogs & am so grateful PetFit services the 21228 area!!
SAfter my first dog walker (from Rover) in Catonsville stopped working, I looked around for something other than Rover, because it had taken so long to find someone I liked and trusted. I'm picky because I was a dog walker myself for ten years, so I know the quality of dog walkers out there varies immensely. This company was recommended to me by a coworker who used them for their own dog. My little maltipoo has had a great time with them! They send gorgeous high quality photos of both my dog and my cats who quickly warmed up to the walkers coming into the house. They've been responsive and accommodating to my weekly schedule changes (my housemate's schedule changes regularly and I sometimes get to work from home or stay home sick) and their online system is easy to use. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a skilled, knowledgeable dog walker who will always send you a note when they come - so you never have to doubt whether or not your pup got walked.
Reilly and the team at Pet Fit are fantastic. We have worked with them for the past year for our two dogs. Reilly and their team are professional, enthusiastic, and genuinely care for our dogs as if they were their own. They are attentive and know our dogs well enough to notice any changes in their behavior or health. I appreciate their team-based focus on working with our puppy and other dog on commands and leash behavior. It is clear everyone is passionate and knowledgeable about what they do and I would not want to use anyone else for our dogs.
I’m not a big reviewer, but I need folks to know what an incredible organization Pet Fit is. Reilly and his team are amazing with animals and my dog absolutely loves them. It’s obvious from talking with them that they are passionate about doing right by and enriching the animals in their care. They’re also exceptionally trustworthy, I could not possibly recommend them enough.
Pet Fit and Reilly have been walking my two dogs for about 3 years. I am always so impressed with the professionalism and dedication Reilly exhibits. He is very compassionate and obviously loves the dogs and takes very good care of them on their walks. I can tell my dogs love him too! I really appreciate the notes and pictures he leaves me everyday that he walks Phoebe and Pippa. I have never had a single negative thought about Pet Fit’s service and highly recommend them.
Reilly and the walkers at PetFit are so kind, trustworthy, and helpful! Our dog became sick recently and Reilly and his team did everything they could to help and would even come twice per day on short notice! They are willing to bring in packages and help with little things at the house. I love the photos we get from each walk, they’re fun to see what we are missing! PetFit tries to adjust also to the idiosyncrasies of your dog (ours hates the rain) to get the best walk experience for your pooch. We recommend them highly and are totally happy with the care they give our dog!
Reilly and the Pet fit walkers are amazing! I never worried about Buddy, he was always in great hands. Every day I received an email telling me about their walk, including multiple pictures. ❤️ Petfit!
I cannot overstate how extremely pleased and satisfied we have been with the team at Pet Fit! They've been walking my now 10-year-old dog Mollie for a few years now and they are really wonderful! Their service is very easy to use as you can set up your schedule via app. The dog-walkers are clearly animal lovers and enthusiastic about seeing my doggie each day! Mollie loves her walks and, if the weather's bad and she's not in the mood, the Pet Fit walkers always find a way to coax her out for a quick pee, and then spend a little time with her inside instead. In all the time they've been working with us, they haven't missed a single walk! That's very important to me because I can relax and know that Mollie will have a break every day during the week while I'm working. (She's very spoiled!). This service is worth every penny!!!!! Give them a try, you won't regret it!
We have had an awesome experience with PetFit. We had not used a pet walking service before, but since getting injured we needed someone. Reilly got us going but Natalie has been doing most of the walks with our large, playful dog. Natalie is caring, thoughtful and keeps Josie very active. Just mention an idea to Natalie and she follows through. Josie is always thrilled to see her
Pet Fit is one of the best dog walking experiences I have had. I would choose this business over Rover or an app any day. Reilly is incredible with the dogs and I always knew they were in good hands. He is responsive and flexible. We have one dog that had issues due to a vaccine and her behavior needs to be monitored closely in case she is having issues and he was always quick to text or update the portal everyday with how she was doing. He also knew when to let her rest while taking my other dog for walk. My other dog also had knee surgery and Reilly took such good care of her while she was not able to move and was patient with her as she got back on her feet. If you are looking for a dog walker, this is def the place to go. I could not be happier with the services and pricing. The daily updates with photos were the highlight of my afternoons. Kudos to this small biz !
Outstanding service!! After several trials with others, we finally came home from vacation to HAPPY dogs, cat, and aquariums!! Highly, highly recommend.
Pawwws Aboard provides outstanding doggy daycare services in a nurturing and secure setting. The owner, personally ensured that my puppy, Tendie, received top-notch care. Her commitment to your fur baby's happiness and safety is reflected in every detail of the facility. Rest assured that Pawwws Aboard will deliver a welcoming and enriching experience for your cherished pet during your absence.
We contacted Pawwws Aboard to see if they were able/willing to watch a mini pig. Jazmin stated she had never done it but was willing to try. She came to meet him and we all felt comfortable so we booked her for 2 visits a day while we were away. She has fair pricing with multiple ways to pay. She was very communicative while we were away and sent pictures, videos, and updates during each visit. We felt at ease knowing she was there taking care of our pig. Will definitely use Pawwws Aboard again for future trips if she’s available
She is an awesome puppy sitter!! I will definitely be using her the next time my husband and I go on vacation! She sent us videos everyday for updates on our little one and she was always happy and playing. She showed our Frenchie lots of love and attention. I was very nervous about leaving her but she assured me that she was in good hands and I had nothing to worry about! She has a forever client here!
Jaz has been amazing! Pups and I moved to Baltimore and were so lucky to have found her! Takes great care and they adore her. I have a pup that needs meds twice a day, She is very responsible and I can trust her to be on time. I travel a lot for work, wouldn’t know what to do without her!
Jazmin is absolutely amazing!! She welcomed my baby boy into her home and he loved every visit. He adjusted well and surprised me with how well he did with the other dogs in her care. She even came to my home for personal walks when he was sick for a couple of days. An absolute God-send. Your dog is in good care with Pawwws Aboard! 🐶
Jazmin is excellent with my two senior dogs. They both love her. She checks on and spend a got deal of time with them the numerous tomes daily. Send picture to show me they good. Highly recommend her services. I will most definitely use her again!
Jazmin is very reliable and takes great care of my baby girl Lega. Excellent communication. I have a senior dog so she needs extra love and attention…you can trust Jazmin to ensure your dog is well taken care of. Lega is always excited to see her:)
Kind, friendly pet care and it’s obvious dogs are loved and well-cared for! Definitely recommend and will use again!
We started daycare with Jazmin for our very energetic pup. Bailey loves her and always enjoys her time. Jazmin really cares for all the pups that she takes care of.
I had a pause in my need for a pet sitter during the past year. We just did a camping trip and needed to board our fur babies. Even though we moved further away from Jazmin, I thought of her first. She responded quickly that she had an opening and during our trip she sent pictures of Emma playing with a toy and Lingling playing with the puppy, Beauty. I knew they were in good hands!
My senior pup, Kaylee (9 years old), REALLY loved her first day of daycare at the Wagging Lounge! She was keen to explore and meet everyone from the minute we walked in, and she loved everyone on staff (including the men, which was pleasantly surprising given her history of meeting some other men). She’s quite independent, so she apparently spent the day dog watching and hanging out with all of the humans. The spaces are clean, the staff are friendly, and the prices are a good value. Kaylee will be coming back for a week-long stay later this year, and I know she and I are both excited about that! For now, she’s a bit tuckered from her adventure.
Our dogs, Fresca and Sydney, love Wagging Lounge! The girls howl with excitement when we turn the corner knowing where they are going. Every staff member has been very helpful and we are so thankful they take care of our girls so well. We don't have to worry about anything during the day or when we go on vacation. My husband and I love seeing the daily photos and videos showing all the pups having fun.
Even after moving 30 minutes away, Wagging Lounge is STILL the only place we board our dogs. We love the trusted staff and dog savviness they have. They know Bear and Lily by name and are always so happy to have them boarding. Wagging Lounge deeply cares for the dogs that come and know all the ins and outs of them.
Our dog Luna loves coming here! We tried a few days of daycare prior to boarding her. We liked that the dogs are evaluated to make sure they are having an okay time before being kept and we loved her report card on her first day. When we drop her off she doesn’t even look back to us she is so excited to go play with her friends. While Luna was boarded it was also great to know her schedule and see daily photos to let us know she was doing well!
Our dog Hobbes always has a great time at Wagging Lounge! They take great care of him and he gets some socializing and exercise during the day. The boarding options are also very convenient for us. The staff are always very friendly, recognize him, and very communicative. He’s always excited to walk in the door!
I can't say enough good things about the wonderful people that work at Wagging Dog and the Kim's who own and operate it. My dogs have been coming since they were puppies and they always love a day with their friends. They always come home safe and tired and well loved and cared for. Thanks Wagging Dog team, Kelly dogs love you!
We love WL and have recommended it to every friend in the area that was looking for boarding or daycare! They have taken care of our doodle Tonks so well, she absolutely loves heading in for daycare and she’s always so worn out after a long day of playing with the other dogs. You absolutely can’t beat the Wagging Lounge!
We started sending our dog, Duncan to wagging lounge when he was just a puppy! I was so nervous dropping him off because he was such an anxious pup. He absolutely loved it! We love the daily pictures and the staff take such good care of our fur baby. Our usually skittish dog has the best time! The staff at wagging lounge are extremely personable and accommodating. When my husband and I were expecting our baby in the summer they immediately made room for Duncan in their boarding schedule, as we had to quickly rush to the hospital. We love wagging lounge!!
Our dog Lizzie loves it here at Wagging Lounge. She’s very well taken care of, and you can tell that everyone at Wagging Lounge really cares about the pups they take care of. Whenever our dog walks through the door, we’re greeted by a chorus of people saying “Lizzie!!” and it always puts a smile on my face. You can definitely trust your pup to the fine folks at Wagging Lounge
We love sending our pup, Lisa, to the Wagging Lounge Dog Resort Of particular pawesomeness is that they post pics of her having a blast! They also make me feel like she is the coolest pup they've ever met and that they truly love her and care for her. She overcame her longstanding fear of cars after just a few trips to Wagging Dog-- I think because she started to associate the car with going to daycare! We are truly grateful for the care they take of our pup. I'm a mom of 3 human kiddos who have been in daycare, too-- and i really appreciate the special love and affection -- it is invaluable.
I love Everything about the Columbia Camp Bow Wow!! I love that you guys have indoor and outdoor facilities that my Comet can access on his own. I love the additional activities you offer which gives him the opportunity to have alone time with the staff cause he thrives on the human touch. I love that Camp Bow Wow offers bathing and grooming services - now my boy can have everything done under one roof and I don’t have to stress about taking him to somewhere else. Plus, as a golden doodle he’s gotten the absolute best grooming at Camp Bow Wow that he’s ever received! I’m so glad we found you guys! 🥰
I'm not the biggest fan of this place and I think you can get better value and experiences elsewhere. My main issue is the lack of enrichment (or restful) activity. Unless for a cost of course because...capitalism? In order for your dog to get any one-on-one time it'll come at a cost. Want a room with a tv? $$$$. Forget to bring a collar? $$$$$. This is a franchised company so the people at the top care less about your dogs, and more about their bottom line. My other issue is with the style of "play" for the dogs. I kept watch on my dog for an entire day while she was at daycare and not once did she get a chance to nap. There's nowhere for the dogs to take a breather away from the hoopla and the employees look incredibly bored to be there. Of course your dogs come home tired, they're probably delirious out of their minds after wandering in circles all day. For $40 there are plenty of other options in the area, heck there's a competitor next door. Can't say I recommend it here.
My big, goofy pup LOVES going to Camp Bow Wow in Columbia, and I love that he comes home worn out after a day full of play. After all, a tired dog is a good dog. The facility is staffed with friendly folks who seem to really care about the dogs. We have used them for daycare, bathing, and overnight boarding and recommend their services without hesitation.
Happy Saturday! We absolutely love and adore Columbia Bow! The customer service and love and attention they give our dog is consistently and absolutely phenomenal! Special kudos to Jen and Trish for always rockin ! Customer service …love and attention at its very best ! Strongly recommend as they have new facilities..excellent staff who provide excellent care and wonderful activities and the cameras and the pictures they share are an extra special touch …the entire Rome jr family love y’all and DJ gives extra smooches !
From beginning to end a wonderful experience. We’ve moved around and have had four groomers and three daycares as a result in the last eight years. Nothing will beat this. The first groomer that does not have a horrible time with this little challenger, and he came out so happy and calm. So clean. Great staff! The interview process was so professional and transparent. Focused on the dog and their well being. I’m so thankful we found this place. Again, Best. Groomer. Ever.
My fur baby and grand dog had an interview with Camp Bow Wow to board for 4 days. The camp offer free 1-day daycare, as part of the interview, to see if my babies' demeanors would fit in with the other dogs. The camp provides live video to observe your baby while in their care. My babies did well and I'm so impressed with the care and observation the camp employees displayed. I loved this experience. I would recommend their services for boarding and daycare without hesitation.
I don’t post reviews, but I am pretty upset about this. I am new to the area and boarded my dog for 2 nights. She is an easy, confident, well socialized dog and is used to dog daycare and has been boarded several times for as long as 10 days without any issues. When I picked her up from this facility, she had crusted diarrhea and blood in her fur, red and crusted lips, and smelled like feces and blood. We had forgotten her food at home and they did let us know she could have some GI distress with this. We were not concerned because she has tolerated abrupt food changes in the past, and the facility uses Purina which is the brand we use at home. Regardless, I get it, abrupt food changes can cause a lot of problems and that’s on us. However, nobody mentioned she was having severe, bloody diarrhea. Never had an accident in the house, and now she can’t take more than a few steps without leaking. After a $500 ER visit for rectal bleeding and dehydration, I called the facility to ask if they had an issues with her - they said no. Really? I seriously don’t know how nobody noticed between the dried poop and blood in her fur, her pooping pure liquid every 5 minutes, and the extremely potent smell. So they are either inattentive with the dogs or they are lying. I was also overcharged, asked about this, and he said he’d have a manager call me to arrange a reimbursement for the amount I was overcharged. I have not received a call.
Our 11-year-old pup has been going to camp since he was six months old, and he LOVES it. They take such great care of him, I love that I can watch him on the cameras, and he sleeps so well when he gets home!
I would caution all people considering going to do more research into this locations policies. I have taken my dog to Camp Bow Wow in another state and had nothing but positive experiences so I was looking forward to have one nearby after moving. When I got my dog home I noticed a large gash in her ear which was luckily superficial , but no employee noticed or mentioned it when i picked her up or called later (this was far larger and deeper than normal rough play scratches). There is a couple things that is different about this location. There was no introduction to the new pack of dogs just having her join all the group, which is not the end of the world since she is very socially adjusted but some dogs dont mesh so you never know. HOWEVER this place only has one worker per 25 dogs meaning there are way too many dogs to stop play if it gets too rough or pay attention to all of them. To put it in perspective all other day cares my dog has attended limits 10 or 15 per person and the recommendation by the International Boarding and Pet Care Services Association is 1 to 15 depending on temperament. Additionally their daily dog limit is 145 (on the phone they said the highest they ever had was 130) but they only have two large outdoor spaces and one small out door space plus what looked to be only one to two large dog indoor space and one for small dog meaning when I looked on the screen a single room (smaller sized room that my last location) had what I counted as over 45 dogs with only two employees. I recommend finding another daycare with more space, less dogs, or more staff because the combination of those three factors is honestly dangerous.
Our dog has enjoyed Camp Bow Wow for 8 months now and he really seems to enjoy it. We’ve used other places in the past, but prefer Camp Bow Wow because he gets to stay out in a common play area for very nearly the entire time he’s there. We also like the web cams and the fact that they don’t charge any fee for picking our dog up early. They also offer a free day if you bring in proof that your dog has been vaccinated for K9 influenza which I think is really great. It makes it a safer environment for all the dogs.
I got Zion right before COVID. I don’t know what his previous owners did to him but he was very nervous and reactive. I took him to Petco for training but the trainer, let’s just say wasn’t very effective.The neighbors at the apartment at which I was living at the time complained every time Zion walked from one part of my apartment to another. School was still in a brick and mortar so I needed to find someone to take care of him during the day. I stumbled upon Demille and Jill and let them know my situation, how Zion was, etc. They met him and agreed to board him during the week. They would send me pictures and Zion looked super happy. Without knowing it, they helped Zion immensely. My boyfriend and I stumbled upon the unofficial dog park at Wyman Park. At first we were skeptical about letting him go but then we remembered the pictures Jill and Demille would send of him playing with other dogs, being happy and we let him go and he was just fine. He was calm. His reactivity had significantly diminished. When I travel, it’s Jill and Demille I call because they know Zion and his quirks and love him regardless. Thanks, Guys for being so good with and to Zion. With your help, he really has come a long way.
Jill runs such a loving and care dog care service! We had tried (and failed) with a few other services before finding Hampden Hounds. But Jill made us feel so comfortable and she takes such great care of our dog! We always get multiple pictures a day when she’s walking or watching him and she is always very responsive. Would definitely recommend Hampden Hounds to anyone looking for dog care services!
There aren’t words to express how grateful we are to Hampden Hounds. From walking my energetic dog multiple times a day while I worked long hours, to caring for her for several days while I was in the hospital, to boarding her for holidays and vacations, I could always count on Jill to make sure my girl was well cared for. Hampden Hounds was the only boarding I trusted when my dog was 16 years old and needed a lot of special attention. Even after I left the city, I drove an hour to make sure our dog was in the best care whenever I couldn’t be with her. We love Hampden Hounds!
Our dog goes to hampden hounds so often that when we start heading that direction it’s hard to keep her on her leash! Jill sends pictures every day and our pup is exhausted by time we get back. Also super flexible when plans change last minute and easy to contact via email or text, she is very responsive. I highly recommend, especially if your in the Hampden area!
Our dog has always been treated so well in every possible way by Jill. We love the updates, pictures during walks, and the care she puts into the dogs and her business. When we moved out of the city, we solely used Hampden Hounds for boarding. There is nobody else we’d rather use to care for our dog!
The most flexible, responsive, and trustworthy dog walkers we’ve worked with. We adjust our schedule each week and it’s not a problem at all. Our dog is very shy around new people, but Demille was extremely patient with her from the start, and now she loves when he shows up. Couldn’t recommend more.
Our very large Lab, Darwin, adores Demille, who provides love, care and excellent exercise in all sorts of weather. We are so pleased with the outstanding services Hampden Hounds provides and we recommend them to everyone. Darwin uses dog walking and day care services and loves his time with Demille and Jill. Jill is an excellent communicator to both humans and dogs alike. Hampden Hounds is a pandemic puppy’s dream come true. Love getting the photos from walks. The photo is Darwin after a walk with DeMille!
Demille is a dog whisperer. My great dane/walker tree hound loves him. He looks forward to the daily walks and is excited to see him each and every time. He comes back the happiest boy from each walk. And, he is not easy to deal with - is very reactive and skittish. Hampden Hounds (Jill and Demille) are extremely responsive and responsible, and can adopt to my sometimes changing schedules. They have keys to my pad and I trust them inherently. Also, Jill and Demille have been able to adjust to my crazy work schedule and have been able to walk Ivan and also his brother and pesty bishon on very short notice. I trust them inherently. I recommend very highly. All customers I know love them. Steve
My dog Jasmine gets so excited every time she goes to see Jill and DeMille. She always meets new friends and I don’t worry about how she is doing or how she is being treated, like I have with others in the past. Jill always sends me update pictures and the pictures don’t lie. Jasmine looks happy and well cared for. They are also very reliable and so easy to deal with. ❤️
Jill from Hampden Hounds is kind and reliable, and our dogs LOVE her. She walks our pups every workday. When I am working from home I get to see just how happy our dogs are when Jill arrives at the front door for their walk! Prices are very reasonable, too.
I'm very embarrassed that we've been clients of Luv My Pet for almost four years and only now I am writing a review. We got back recently from our longest trip since the great pandemic lock down of 2020 and Luv My Pet took care of our two young adult cats for ten days. We really appreciate that all pet sitters who visited and took great care of our cats, we were sent daily updates with pics and sometimes videos to show how the cats were doing while we were away and it really took a lot of stress off our minds so we could enjoy our vacation fully. I should note that our cats are still a bit nervous around people they don't know. One is an bubbly introvert who slowly warmed up to the sitters and in the end became quite chatty and loved the attention the pet sitters provided. The other cat is mostly asocial and prefers only interacting with me and my husband. I felt that the pet sitters navigated her personality very well, although as cats sometimes do she decided to "be lost" for a few visits and when found hissed at the pet sitter on duty. For this, I am sorry and I thought that all pet sitters assigned did a really great job of allowing her time and space to be the cat that she is. We were very happy to come home to well taken care of cats - they were fed, watered, socialized, their litter was clean, which is everything you want in a cat sitter. We will absolutely be using Luv My Pet while we are away on our next adventure. Thank you again.
We started using Luv My Pet when my German Shepherd was a puppy, and my dog had daytime walks for the past five years. The dog walkers were first Kim, and then Deb, and I had a great experience with both. And my dog loved them! I always felt confident that she was well cared for in my absence.
Outstanding all around! The daily updates (with photos) in our portal, texts to make sure a small issue that emerged was handled properly (and then a follow up to confirm all was still good), and their flexibility when our schedule changed made for a fantastic experience. We highly recommend this team and know our cats will be in caring hands when we travel again.
I have been using their services for almost 2 years to care for my cats while out of town. Jeff and his team are reliable and professional. The online portal is easy to use to request services, pay invoices, and get photos and updates for every visit that is completed in real time. Recently there was an issue with my door while I was out of town and this team went above and beyond to coordinate a locksmith while I was away. I can't believe how wonderful they are to work with and really appreciated the extra level of care. I have full trust that they are taking great care of my pets and highly recommend!
What a great service. The team was very reliable and cared about my dogs. Never had to worry about a backup they always had someone there to cover. I wish I could take them to my new home.
I've been using them since I moved to Baltimore earlier this year and they are wonderful! They take the time to get to know my dog and make sure he's comfortable; his usual walkers are Larry and Michael and he really likes both. I also really like the walk summary + pics I get everytime they walk him. Plus I feel like the prices are super reasonable.
I have been using Luv My Pet for i think over 3 years now and I feel very safe leaving my pets in their care. The dog walkers are always extremely friendly and take great care of my cat and my dog. I receive daily confirmation messages and pictures of my pet. So far i never had any cancellation over the time of my 3+ years with them, which is huge since i cannot just leave my job ad hoc to go home. Paying online is super simple and rescheduling and updating days is also quick with a response time of less than 2 hours. Would recommend to anyone i know!
We've been using Luv My Pet for almost a year now and they've been great. Jeff, the owner, was really nice and helpful getting us set up the first time and he's always very responsive and accommodating. We try to keep everything scheduled nicely in advance but sometimes things come up and they've always been able to accommodate us - Jeff even came out to walk Simon when nobody else was available. Overall I've been very happy with their services. Simon LOVES his walks too!
I don't use Luv My Pet for regular dog walks, just when I am going to be out of the house for longer than I like to leave my dog alone for. Jeff and his team are always quick to respond to requests. The walkers are always so wonderful to my pup and text me updates and pictures of him. I highly recommend Luv My Pet!
Our dog loves her walks with Nicole - she is great! Always on time and very patient with our energetic puppy. The app is easy to use to schedule and pay for walks. The pictures and report they send after each walk is great, too.
My dog loves it here. He's always excited to go play. The groomers are always excellent. The few times that we've boarded him, I know he's at a place where they will take care of him, and I don't worry.
Exceptional Care and Outstanding Service at Stay Pet We recently boarded our dog, King, at Stay Pet while we went on an extended cruise. It was King’s first time being boarded for an extended period, and unfortunately, he didn’t take to it as well as we had hoped. However, the Stay Pet team was nothing short of amazing. They kept a close eye on King, monitoring his moods, mannerisms, and any changes in his temperament. It was incredibly reassuring to know that they were taking care of King just as we would. When it became clear that boarding wasn't the best fit for King, the team at Stay Pet didn’t hesitate to suggest alternatives. We ended up switching him to daycare, which suited him much better. Throughout the entire process, Stay Pet offered us options, including veterinary care, to ensure King was comfortable and well-cared for. The team’s dedication and attention to detail made all the difference. We truly felt like they went above and beyond to take care of our family. If you’re looking for a place that treats your pets like their own, I can’t recommend Stay Pet enough. They are the best for a reason!
My dog, Zeke has been going to STAY for ten years. He comes for daycare and boarding. Zeke loves it there! Everyone is so kind and friendly and they always take care of my guy. We wouldn't go anywhere else!
Such a wonderful place to take your pups for daycare and boarding. They really look out for their customers and their pets - our corgis literally leap out of the car each time we take them. Probably the best parts are the people and the villas - the garden villas have 24/7 wifi cameras and the staff do a great job of showing genuine tlc.
I have used staypet a few times to board my dogs. They are seniors that don’t tolerate playing with other dogs much anymore so I like that stay pet allows the option for no daycare. I had access to the webcam during my last 2 week vacation and saw that my dogs were well taken care of. Plus I have 1 14 year old dog that a lot of boarding places in the area wouldn’t take due to her age, but stay pet was very accommodating. Recommend for other helicopter dog parents like me who have dogs with special needs
Absolutely wonderful! Had a last minute boarding for my cat and it was super painless to sign up, and they took great care of my baby. She was purring on the way home and hopped back in her carrier after like she was ready to go back and hang out more. I will absolutely be bringing Rixha back!
We've been using Stay Pet for boarding our dogs while we're on vacation and have been very happy with the service. We also utilized their new veterinary service for the first time and strongly recommend it as well! The prices were very reasonable and the vet seemed knowledgeable, thorough and informative. When touring kennels in the area, Stay Pet stood out for many reasons: 1) The staff are always friendly and welcoming. They seem to genuinely love working with animals and it is appreciated that they know and greet our fur babies by their name. 2) The facilities are super clean and the boarding cages are a decent size, especially compared to other kennels. 3) The dogs get to play outside of their cages for a lot of the day, which is very important to us since we have two energetic huskies. 4) Their hours are convenient for working families. You can drop off as early as 6am and pick up by 7pm during weekdays. 5) We appreciate the thoroughness of their intake process, from verifying the vaccinations to having a trial evaluation day to make sure our dogs will feel comfortable there. 6) They upload photos of all the dogs playing on a daily basis and we really enjoy being able to see photos of our dogs having fun while we're away on vacation. One thing that can be improved is the communication. The phone number always goes to voicemail, although they do get back to you in a few hours if you leave a voicemail or a text message. We're very happy with Stay Pet and happy that we found our go-to place for boarding and daycare!
I cannot express how much we love stay pet! We use all of their services - weekly daycare, boarding, grooming, and the vet. We have very large dogs that are sometimes difficult to care for, but they absolutely adore stay pet. The staff love on our girls and always take the best care of them. I also have to sing HUGE praises to the vet staff. My Great Dane was having trouble at her current vet due to nervousness and Dr. K was so helpful in the transition (even pulling our dog out of daycare just to give her treats and pets so she would be more comfortable). Our Cane Corso recently had surgery performed at Stay Pet and Dr. K has kept in constant communication, texting to check in and very quickly responding to any questions I have. Loren, the vet tech, was extremely helpful in walking through all the after care instructions as well. Again, HIGHLY recommend!
My dog has gone here for daycare weekly and boarding for almost a year now, and I wouldn't take him anywhere else! He is SO excited to jump out of the car and run in every day that I take him. We boarded him for a week and he was just as happy, and the vet there is great too. They communicate very well and are always available to answer questions.
My cat and dog both come here. My cat has been boarded here and my dog sees the vet. We LOVE Dr. K and the vet staff! Highly recommend this facility!!
We have used Citywide Pets which now is Angelface Pets for over 7 yrs. They have been there for us through multiple pets. We currently have 2 dogs, 1 cat and assorted fish tanks. Though we do most of our own daily walks, we have used Angelface Pet services when ever we are out of town and require pet care. Ed Robinson has always taken extremely good care of our animal children. He is great with our varying range of pets from a 116lb Rottweiler to our 14lb Havanese, including our rescue cat and many fish. Our pets don't see many walkers, but feel comfortable around Ed, even after extended periods of no contact. The animals always seem to be in a good state upon our return. I would highly recommend Angelface Pet Services for any of your pet needs DJL
Angel face pets takes care of visits for our 4 dogs. They take care of feeding, medicine administration for our older pup, cleaning up outside after the dogs, etc. The best part is that our dogs absolutely love them too! Finding this service has been absolutely amazing, and such a stress relief from working long hours! 100% recommend!
Edward and his team has been taking care of my pity (Puma) since I've moved to the Baltimore area 2yrs ago and they are absolutely wonderful. The service is very reliable, professional, and it is quite a peace of mind to know my dog's in good hands while I'm at work! -P
Edward and his team are like family. They have cared for my cats for years. Always caring and communicative. Giving meds, feeding,litter boxes, playing and loads of cuddles. They barely notice I’m gone!!
Edward and his team of pet sitters are phenomenal. I've relied on their services for more than 10 years now. He and his staff always go above and beyond while we're away, spending extra time with our cat and providing that much-needed bonding time while we're away. I've known Edward as a yoga teacher even earlier than this. I know his incredible kindness and thoughtfulness extend to every visit while we're away. I highly recommend his pet sitting services. Your pets will be happier for it!
I cannot say enough good things about Angelface Pets! Ed and his team are such wonderful caretakers of my furbabies. I have been using their services for almost 10 years and they have always been reliable, thorough and caring. And they are accommodating of my high maintenance ways in terms of my cats' care instructions:) I never have to worry about them when I am out of town because I know they are in good hands. If you are in the Baltimore area and in need of responsible, loving caregivers, I highly recommend Angelface Pets!
Owner, Ed, and his team are the absolute best with our beloved pets. They have been walking and dog sitting for our two beagles (and a few cats) for over 12 years now. The beagles adore Ed and his team and the team is always kind, trustworthy, prompt, and reliable. They have also gone above and beyond by cleaning up the occasional potty accident for example and have given great advice on pet healthcare (our fantastic vet was recommended by Ed). Angelface Peta are simply the best - I would not have kept them on for 12+ years otherwise. They always have been amazing with our pets.
We have been working with Angelface Pets for quite some time and would highly recommend them. It is clear to us that everyone on their team genuinely cares about our two dogs and is committed to providing them with top notch care. We love that the owner has been in this business for over a decade, and he has very high standards for each and every interaction with clients. The team is small enough that you know each person and know that they are familiar with your pets and your home, but it’s big enough that Angelface Pets can almost always accommodate our needs. We’ve worked with many different pet care services in Baltimore, and based on our experiences with a variety of providers we would choose Angelface Pets first every time.
Edward and his team has been taking care of our fur pets for almost 10 years. He is timely and spends a great amount of time with your pet or pets while you are out of town. Highly recommend!
Ed and his team take great care of my dogs ranging from doberman to cocker spaniel. Pics videos and updates on every visit. They have been there every time I asked, even with short notice. Could not ask for a better service and care.
DOCC is amazing! They have been walking Molly for almost 4 years, and even had no issues with continued dog walks after moving sides of town. They always texts, give updates, help out last minute with my busy work schedule, and send photos. DOCC even send photos of my cat, even if they aren’t there to take care of him. Would recommend to anyone!
Our dog, Phil, absolutely loved his mid-day walks with Dogs of Charm City. He always looked so happy in the pictures they sent us and the walkers went above and beyond in making Phil feel loved and special. When we get our next dog, we will be sure to USE Dogs of Charm City for all of our dog sitting and dog walking needs!
As both a client & employee of DOCC I cannot say enough good things!! Finding trustworthy dog walkers is so hard, but the team at DOCC is so amazing! I find comfort knowing my boys are always in good hands on their walks! We love our DOCC walks!! 🖤 …
I have been using DOCC for their dog walking services for the last two years and cannot say enough good things about them. They are reliable, professional and personable! As a nurse, I work long hours and use them multiple times in a day for my pup. They let me know when they are on the way to my house, once they’ve picked my dog up, multiple pictures/videos during the walk and a wrap up text when they are leaving. My dog loves each and every one of the walkers and looks forward to them each day. Some days I request a shorter walk and extra play time and they are happy to accommodate! They treat Oliver like he is one of their own and I never have to worry while I’m at work. One time there were fire trucks out front of my building and the owner, Lyndsay, texted me to make sure Oliver was safe and asking if I needed her to get him. This was such a heart warming gesture and really shows how amazing this company is! I have requested walks last minute and they have always accommodated me. Again, Oliver and I can’t recommend them enough!!!
We cannot recommend Dogs of Charm City more! They have been such a huge help to us from the month we brought our puppy home with walks and training help and over the years with boarding and petsitting! They are truly the absolute best, no one out there is doing it like them!! Would give them 10 stars if I could!
Our experience with Dogs of Charm City (DOCC) has been everything we hoped for! We have used DOCC for weekday and weekend walks, as well as their staycation services. We are consistently impressed with the staff’s expertise and professionalism while caring for our dog, Maisey. While we were away for the holidays recently, our DOCC sitter, Katelyn, sent us daily updates with pictures and anecdotes that made us feel so at ease. It was clear Maisey and Katelyn were having a great time, and we have already booked Maisey’s next staycation. We wholeheartedly recommend Dogs of Charm City to fellow pet owners looking for reliable and caring individuals who will treat your dog as their own. We are also proud to support a Baltimore-based and women-owned business!
My fiance and I used DOCC for 2 years while living in Canton. They helped us out by walking our dog, Kofi, 2-3 times per week starting right after we adopted him as a puppy. They were always flexible when we needed to make changes and never failed to pick up a requested walk. Every one of the dog walkers who came to the house was amazing! We were so pleased with their communication. Every walker texted us when they were 10 minutes away, and let us know how/what he did and when he was back in his crate. The best part of our work day was when we'd get the photo updates of Kofi on his walk. It was great to never have to worry about him while we were at work. We were so grateful to have this service while living in the city!
I am so pleased with DOCC and so are my pups I have daily walkers and know Lily and Amos are well taken care of. I get text updates about their walks and lots of pics of their adventures. I highly recommend DOCC, exceeds my expectations
Nicole was AMAZING! We hired her to handle our dog Honor on our big day! Not only did she relieve my stress but she was extremely professional and you could tell she was very experienced with large dogs. She helped pose Honor, walked him, fed him, and loved on him. My entire wedding party was so impressed with Nicole and her dog handling skills. Because of Nicole I had my handsome boy with me for pictures and to greet guests. I cannot put into words how great this company and Nicole are.
Can't recommend Dogs of Charm City enough! They have been the perfect solution to keeping our puppy busy during COVID. We love their waking services and recently started using their in-home doggy day-care. Their team always keeps us updated via text and tons of beautiful pics + they maintain our training during their time with Lou. I feel so lucky to have found a safe, socialization option for our dog while she completes her vaccinations and can't wait to start using their pack-walks and dog adventure options! I completely trust them with the care of our dog, and appreciate how detailed they are in caring for each individual pet.
