Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

Jordan
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

Courtenay
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Anne
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
KATHLEEN
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
KOLBY
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!

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.

Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Stacey
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!

Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Ned
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 .

Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
danica and ajit
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!

Jaimie is THE BEST. My dog loves her. Not only is her kennel great but her training works like a charm, she’s been helping us train our pup since she was 3 months old. We did one lesson of leash training and me and my pup were able to finally go on a hike with no pulling! If you want good, effective training, go here. Also a great place to board your pup if needed for vacation. Thank you!!!
Cannot say enough good things about Jamie & Main St. Kennels - as a nervous pet owner with two large dogs, its always a challenge to find someone to pet sit when we want to get away. From the moment we pulled up, our two shy dogs gravitated towards Jamie and seemed to feel right at home. She came highly recommended from a family member, and we are so grateful to have found her. Thank you Jamie for giving us the peace of mind to be able to enjoy our vacation, and for taking such great care of our furry kids :)
I think I’m more nervous than my dog. I felt very comfortable to leave my dog with her. Her genuine care and love for pets can’t be denied. Pricing is very reasonable too. Love her!
My terrier mix Molly loves Jamie like a 2nd mom. I never worry about Molly when she’s with Jamie. We drive 30 minutes to Main Street Kennel even though there are closer options. We’re lucky to have found her.
Jamie has been taking care of our dog for close to 10 years. At one point he even stayed 6 weeks! He is well taken care of and happy there. When he returns he acts the way he always is, happy and well behaved. One time we left him elsewhere and when he returned acted fearful and different. It took him a few days to act like himself again. Never with Jamie! She treats him as her own. She is very trustworthy and accommodating . I have called Jamie at the last minute and she always helps me out! He also comes back clean and well fed. I’m addition, I have texted Jamie with questions and she always takes time to respond to me. We totally trust and recommend her!
Jaime and her son are true dog lovers and take such good care of our dog. We hired Jaime as a trainer for our yellow lab when she was only 9 weeks old, and she has been super helpful with advice, tips, and overall training guidance. She is a real dog whisperer and has a perfect touch with dogs. They trust her. We've also used the kennel service to drop off our dog for the day or even for extended trips of 1-3 weeks. She receives excellent care, plays with other dogs, is fed well, and walked daily. Our dog is always super excited to see Jaime when we drop her off, which proves she receives great care there. Dogs don't lie. Even after a 3-week trip, our dog came back clean and fresh, and went right back to her routine at home the same day, no trauma or erratic behavior. Jaime always washes and brushes our dog clean and nice after overnight stays. All we needed to do was agree on a time when we'd pick-up the dog and stick to that schedule. Even during the pandemic, Jaime was very accommodating. She operated by appointment only for safety reasons, which we greatly appreciated. We've used Jaime's services for almost 2 years now and we never have to worry about what to do with our dog when we have plans, Jaime is always there for us. It's like a day camp or sleepaway camp for our Freyja :)
Simply the best! Jaime did an amazing job not only training our dog, but sharing thoughts and insights with us about our dog's care and training. They take terrific care of dogs there! I would encourage anyone who loves there dog to provide them with the best training and boarding available in the area-Main Street Kennels!
Jamie Casale is absolutely the best there is, bar none! My dog is a nervous little guy and has pretty severe separation anxiety but, I can truly say, he comes back from his stays with Jamie seemingly more relaxed and happy than when he left! He loves his stays at Main Street Kennels and I know he is in good hands whenever we are away. Highly recommended!
My dogs always are happy when I leave them there and when I pick them up.
I don’t know the first thing about training a puppy - but what I did know was that I fell in love with this sweet face from day one and I knew I could give her a great home. Little did I know she came home and went from sweet little Lucie to crazy Lucille who would not stop nipping at Sadie! I know it’s just a puppy being playful - but then she would nip at me, my kids and Chris and her nip turned into a bite and it hurt. Like I said , I know nothing about training a puppy but I wanted to give her a home. That said, i am super grateful that Debbie introduced to the “Dog Whisperer” of Mendham. She took Lucie for two full days and here’s the thing that I realized - she really got Lucie to understand that what she was doing was just wrong behavior and she corrected her. Lucie is not a bad girl she just needed to be taught like “oh wait - I’m not supposed to do that??? Omg I’m sorry!!!!” It was like a light went off in her head and she had her “ah ha!” moment! Jamie literally understands how the dogs think and the best way to communicate with them and in her own dog whisperer way explains that is not nice and not acceptable behavior! Lucie came home from Jamie boot camp and had zero interest in nipping Sadie and as a bonus is sleeping in her crate! Jamie is my hero!
