Cat Sitters in Millers, MD

We boarded our 17 year old Kitty at Lucky Stars recently. What a great place! Everyone was pleasant and seemed to enjoy working there. The kennels for cats are generously sized, private from other cats and have a window view. Kitty did not eat the first night so the staff spoon fed her some of her food encouraging her to eat on her own. We also found out that we needed an extra day and they happily accommodated us. Lucky Stars Country Kennel will definitely have Kitty as a guest again during our next trip.

Lucky Stars is a great place for all dogs. The people who work there truly care for your dog's well-being. When we pick our dog up from there, at least 4 times a week, she is ready for dinner and bed. The staff goes out of their way to cater to your dogs needs. I highly recommend this Luck Stars Country Kennel!!!!

We love taking our dogs here. The facility os clean, well staffed and they care about your pet. The dogs are always clean, happy and look like they had a great time when we pick them up. It would be great if they posted some pics of the kenneled dogs playing on their Facebook page. It would the dog parents relax more!

We've brought two different dogs here. Their kenneling options are wonderful, letting you set up an experience as interactive, playful, etc. - or not - as suits your dog. Their trainer gives great feedback and their setup was very wonderful for trying to work through the separation anxiety of my hyper reactive dog ... And now that dog is a happy pup to walk away from me and go okay with other dogs at their daycare. Absolutely recommend trying the variety of services they offer here!

Professionalism is a problem. They Yell at their employees and are extremely disrespectful too them. If they treat the employees this way, I can only imagine how they'd treat the pets there. I'll never leave my dogs there. The groomer also is bad.

Bardie is an amazing groomer. We've been taking our little Penny there for almost 5 years. Wouldn't think of going anywhere else. Highly recommend.

This was our fur baby's first time here. Our baby is a very large Rottweiler. So from the moment that I placed the 1st call to book the stay to when we picked our baby up has been the BEST experience ever so far. I absolutely love the ladies here and our baby was not stressed out when he came home. He loves the ladies here and enjoyed the cuddle times he got with them. We will continue to use Lucky Stars and will HIGHLY recommend them. Thank you ladies so much. See you in October.

Lucky Stars continues to exceed our expectations with each visit. They leave us feeling as though our dog Kingston is their most valued customer even though we know this is just the consistent service that they pride themselves on delivering. Kudos to the Lucky Star Team for being such superstars!

I use to take my dog to the vet for grooming, but they recently stopped grooming so I brought my dog to Lucky Stars. I am SO happy with the results. Not only that but when I picked up my dog she was so calm and at ease! After grooming appointments at the vet she would always come out with her tail tucked and couldn't get to the car fast enough. So I was shocked when she came out with her tail wagging. I will definitely be using Lucky Stars from now on! Editing to add: my long hair dog who went to Lucky Stars for grooming passed away from old age. In the last year I got a puppy, and started taking him to Lucky Star for doggie daycare when I have longer days at work. He LOVES it! As soon as we pull in the driveway he knows he's at daycare amd he starts jumping around! When I pick him up at 5pm he is exhausted! He eats dinner, goes potty, and he is out for the whole night. It's a blessing after a long day at work!

We boarded our 3 dogs at Lucky Stars and could not be happier. Our dogs came back clean, happy and very content. The staff could not be anymore nicer or caring. Thank you.

If I could rate higher than a 5, I would. I couldn't ask for better care for my dogs Reed & Daisy. I always had the confidence my pets were well cared for and loved while under their care. The communication to requests care was easy & open. My updates from every visit were amazing. I never had to take pictures because they sent the best. They were very adaptive to my dogs needs & never complained when there was an oppsie. The only reason I had to stop the services was due to my move. I wish they could still take care of my babies. I can't state how appreciative I am of the care they did for over a year. My future dog walker has big shoes to fill. I would definitely recommend their services. (I used the dog walking services).

Can't recommend Step and Premier Pet Care enough. Peace of mind while going out of town is so important and she provides that 10 fold with her "pupdates" including a bunch of pictures and a recap on the day.

Steph and her crew are the absolute best there is! If you want your pets treated like family, and cared for far beyond your average pet sitters normal services, then Premier Pet Care is 100% the only choice! My dog gets more excited to see Steph than he does me or my husband. The peace of mind we have when our pets are being cared for by Premier Pet Care is priceless. I truly can't thank them enough for being so trustworthy and reliable. Thank you Premier Pet Care!! 💚💙💚💙

Steph was amazing! I rarely leave my dog but when I have to I wouldn’t choose anywhere else for her to stay. I knew she was taken care of, was part of the family in a safe home environment and gots lots of pictures of her having fun with friends. Highly recommend!

We use Premier Pet Care for dog feeding and play time visits. I couldn't be any more satisfied with their responsiveness, professionalism and true compassion for the dogs. We always know they will be in great care and get message updates and pictures after each visit. The dogs always have a great time and we have the peace of mind knowing they're in great hands!! Steph is amazing :)

Stephanie and Michele take great care of my dogs when we are away. My dogs really love both of them, and I can tell from photos that they are enjoying the visits, getting their walks and meals, and having fun. When we come home from our trips, my dogs always seem relaxed and happy. I feel confident that they are in good hands when we are gone, and I am very thankful for their support.

We've always received the BEST care for our boys from Premier Pet Care. They are always accommodating and extremely responsive. We love getting our daily pictures and “pup-dates” while we are away. I can't recommend them enough!

I recently boarded my 6 month old large breed puppy with the owner Steph at her home, cleverly named the ‘Bed & Biscuit’ option. Steph did a trial overnight prior to our dogs actual week long stay to ensure everything went well beforehand. She sent multiple photos of our dog daily, enjoying himself during daily walks to the park, lounging by her pool and snuggling up in her bed! He definitely lived his best life on his own mini vacation while I enjoyed my own out of town. Peace of mind for our furchildren is invaluable, and Steph treated our dog as if he were her own. Thanks, Steph! Murphy can’t wait for his next Bed & Biscuit stay! ❤️

If you are looking for a dog sitter/walker I highly recommend Harness Dog Walking Company. They are always reliable and treat your pets with the highest level of compassion! Steph and her crew are amazing!

Beans had the best weekend with her new friends. So thankful to have such a caring sitter for walks and fun with my doggo. 100% thank you!!!

We love Glen Rock Kennels! It is very clean and my dog doesn't come home smelling horrible/ wet dog. They genuinely love my dog and I know he is being well taken care of and loved while I am gone. Greta is always super responsive as well.

This is by far the greatest kennel around. Extremely clean facility, dogs are let out very often, picture updates, and owner is top notch animal lover. I looked at 8 kennels before finally finding hers! It was an absolute no brainer as soon as I met her, and toured the facility!! I couldn’t possible recommend her enough. This is by far the only place I felt confident taking my pups. Pics for fun 🤩

This was the only place that would board our special needs GSD. We had two dogs there at the same time and they got wonderful care. We got daily updates with photos. When I picked them up, they were in great spirits. This is one of the cleanest kennels that I have ever seen. Highly recommended.

Greta is always so attentive to the dogs and takes the time to get to know each of them. She’s extremely hard working and cares more than any kennel owner! My dog is always happy to be there and loves to come back!

Glenrock Kennels and Greta (aka the owner) have been a life saver for us! I don’t have anxiety one bit when we leave our dog, Gauge with her. Greta is so caring and attentive with all her animals. Gauge loves to go there. I’m so happy we found her and she is so reliable!!

My girl Koda has stayed with Greta on a few occassions. Koda always comes home clean, cared for and happy which is all I could ask for. Greta is awesome about sending pics and updates so you are assured your baby is doing great while you are away. The facility is always clean, and the time and love that went into building the space is apparent when you look around. The property and space for the visiting dogs is perfect and safe. Not only will your fur baby's obvious needs be taken care of, but they will surely receive their needed doses of play, attention, kisses, head pats, ear scratches and belly rubs during their stay too. Pic below is one of many sent to me during one of Koda's stays.

Greta is the best! Our dog loves going and is always happy when we pick him up. Thanks for always taking such good care of our baby!

My boys loved Greta. I have sent a lot of clients to her and finally tried her out for myself. She was as fabulous with my Dobermans.

Took my dogs for a day and absolutely loved the facility. The owner is awesome and very knowledgeable. The kennel is clean, well organized and secure. I am so glad I found them. My dogs had a great day! I highly recommend this kennel.

My dogs loved Greta and she made it feel like their home away from home. Lots of communication. Couldn't recommend more!!

We have three crazy quirky reactive pups that need separate kennels and Faraway had the perfect setup to accommodate them. Our pups were happy and healthy when we picked them up. It was obvious that their mental stimulation and physical needs were met and taken care of. They also made sure that our anxious pups were as comfortable! We would recommend them to anyone in the area!

Lisa and her crew are amazing! They are so good with our girls. It is so nice to be able to go away and know your pups are being cared for so well!

I just picked my dogs up from Lisa this evening and they didn't even care that I was there, it's like they didn't want to leave! Lisa and her staff take excellent care of pets being boarded and I know my pets enjoyed their stay. She has owned the kennel for around 25 years and I know she has so much knowledge and experience under her belt that I feel very comfortable leaving my pets at Faraway Kennels when I am away from home. Thank you Lisa! :) Highly recommend!

This a wonderful place to take your pet to for boarding! They take great care of your animal. No extra charges for the little things, like medications. They work with dogs that have behavior issues, which made it great for me due to have a dog who has some behavior issues. I would highly recommend bringing your dog for a stay here. I will be bringing my boy back again for sure!

I boarded my 3 dogs here for 4 days and all my dogs came back completely healthy and happy to see me. I'm very happy with how helpful and nice the owners were and very much happy with the price. 2 of my dogs are typically very skittish and sometimes aggressive yet they had a great time and enjoyed all the attention. I definitely plan to use this place again for whenever I plan a trip again.

Faraway kennels is the only place that we trust to leave our pets when we go on vacation. Lisa and the crew do an exceptional job caring for the animals. If you're looking for peace of mind and a great value, this is the place to go.

Over the years, our dogs have been lovingly cared for at Far Away Kennel. Lisa, the owner, is always kind. Whenever we go away, we know she will take good care of Zoey for us. We wouldn't take Zoey anywhere else.

Excellent kennel. Great staff. Dogs are well cared for.

Owner takes excellent care of our furry family members!

Just like home

Nancy is an angel, and the reason I didn’t return my adopted dog after having so many issues with him for a year. I was so tired of cleaning up urine every day in my house during that year. I couldn’t understand why my dog was doing this, after coming from a rescue group where they told me he was house trained. After meeting with Nancy, we realized our dog had likely been abused at some point - which also explained his fear of my boyfriend. I had a hard time walking my dog on a regular leash and Nancy showed me how to have more control by using a harness and a snoot loop. Before Nancy showed me that set up, I learned to accept the fact my dog was strong and he would nearly pull my arm out of my socket upon seeing other dogs or furry rabbits and squirrels. Nancy has so much training and education that is so valuable to anyone experiencing issues with their dogs; I cannot recommend her enough. We went to see Nancy about a year ago and she made such a difference in us learning how to better interact with our dog. Thank you, Nancy! ❤️

Our sweet Bichon, Daisy had become a demand barker. If we didn’t play catch with her she would bark nonstop. We tried everything. Our Vet recommended Nancy as someone who could help us. Nancy interviewed us, observed Daisy and gave recommendations. Within 24 hours the barking STOPPED. I called Nancy the next day. I couldn’t believe it. Nancy was wonderful, knowledgeable, kind and patient with us. Thanks—Barb, Rich and Daisy

It had to be April Fool’s – it was the first of April. So, of course, the nightmare we experienced had to be April Fool’s. But it wasn’t. Our mixed breed hound dog, Scout hated our new husky mix puppy, Artie. He lunged, he barked, he snarled. I feared for the dogs (we also had two other dogs who didn’t have a problem with the new puppy), and I feared for our family. Not one of our tricks worked. Scout named Artie his mortal enemy. In desperation I looked on the internet for a trainer. We’d engaged trainers before, especially for Scout’s tendency to bark at people entering our house. We had come to a détente that always made me nervous but we felt at least we handled that situation. Now, we faced the ultimate decision – give up my husband’s ‘heart dog – Artie’ or live in terror and anxiety. My search for a trainer landed me on the website Dogs with Issues. I read through the website and decided to call. Nancy Williams quickly responded to the message I left. Nancy Williams is an Associated Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist – not just your run of the mill dog trainer. She’s done the research; she understands dogs’ minds. She doesn’t feed into the popular mass media idea of packs and dominance. She answered my questions truthfully, she never held back. She asked one critical question, “If this doesn’t work out, are you willing to find a new home for your puppy?” It was hard to say yes. I had a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes, but I confirmed I would – because I see having dogs as a sacred covenant. They are completely vulnerable and dependent on us. At our first meeting with Nancy – she started the training immediately and surprised us by showing us how to handle Scout meeting new people. Scout never met new people without incentives of treats, without jerking at his leash and jumping up. Nancy instructed us and we were able to have Scout meet her without any issues. No treats, no special sprays or shock collars. Over the next three hours, Nancy demonstrated her philosophy of patience, practice, and consistency. At NO TIME did Nancy advocate negative feedback to the dogs. She helped us recognize how fear turns to aggression. She told us – you’re going to train and then you’re going train until you’re sick of it, and then you’re going to train again. She set us up with a new harness and snoot loop for Scout. The harness he couldn’t pull, the new leashes wouldn’t yank out our arms. She showed us how to introduce the dogs, how to allow them to interact, and most importantly she practiced multiple ways to get Scout to understand that an unpredictable puppy isn’t scary. She uses agility type jumps and climbs to simulate the real day to day activities. When we went home that day in mid-April, I wasn’t sure what would happen, but I felt a new sense of calm. Nancy told us it would take months – we had to be patient, we had to work consistently, and practice, practice, practice. About halfway through our journey, we visited Nancy again for an hour session and she joyfully celebrated with us – Scout made strides and showed positive progress. And now, in early August – about 4 months down the line WITHOUT shock collars, spray bottles, or loud noises, Scout and Artie play and hang out together like old pals. Nancy showed us a way to have a happy dog without punishment, with just joy and happiness. Scout jumped happily anytime I said – time for training. So now they are pals and I rest easily at night. Thank you Nancy! Nancy truly is a miracle worker!

Nancy has changed our life and saved our dog and our family dynamics! We can’t say enough positive things about our experience with her. Nancy is so knowledgeable on all aspects of animal behavior, breeding, legalities of animal issues, and in her training techniques. She devotes so much time and she really cares about the well being of you and your pet. We had a very aggressive dog - to the point that our vet told us we should put him down. He had bitten seven people, including us. High anxiety, dog aggression, and so many other issues. We couldn’t bear putting him down without trying more. We hired another “trainer” six months prior to no avail. We gave Nancy a call and she changed our whole world. We implemented her suggested changes and noticed marked improvements very quickly. We now have a much more relaxed and stress free home and most importantly, our little dog is so much happier.

Nancy is a miracle worker. Hands down. No other way to describe it. I brought a very frightened and occasionally fear aggressive Great Pyrenees to her and in such a short time his progress has been nothing short of amazing. I genuinely believed we would have to keep him away from all other dogs except his siblings, turns out he LOVES playing with new friends. We just needed us to know how to handle such a special guy. His confidence has grown in leaps. He is very bonded to me (probably too much so) and she suggested I take a step back and let him bond more with my husband. The excitement this dog shows when Daddy is home now warms my heart. Myself and Baldr Dash my handsome playful boy are both forever indebted to Nancy. Her knowledge and wisdom are unmatched. Oh I completely forgot. He was very thin because he would not eat. Now he happily chomps down each meal and looks amazing at 128 pounds. The first photo of him on me was when we had a visitor in the beginning and he was scared. The rest are my boy now.

We consulted with Nancy on our first rescue - Middi - an English Setter coming from a severe neglect situation. Nancy is extremely knowledgeable and clear with her directions. Even being a very experienced dog owner, I def had some blind spots since I had not dealt with similar circumstances before. Followed her advice and voila! Issue resolved. Thank you so much!

It was a year ago today that I lost my Shalamar. She was almost 18. If it weren't for Nancy, Shalamar would not have made it to a year old. Let me tell you why. At 6 months old she was so out of control that if you came into my home for even 5 minutes she would great you but get so aroused that she would lash at and grab you (thankfully she never broke skin!). She would then come across my apartment at me for up to 3 days afterwards! I couldn't sit at my desk without her trying to climb my back. Sometimes she'd seem fine, but if I got up she'd run in front of my and then freeze. Nothing I do would help and she'd end up coming at me aggressively. One of my vets originally told me to keep her in the bathroom! What kind of life would that be? I was seriously considering putting her to sleep and my heart was breaking. I'd waited SO long to be in my own place to have a kitty. Thankfully a friend of mine knew Nancy from working with her with one of her Corgi's and handed me her info and said "here, I think you need this!" Truth be told both our lives were saved that day. Nancy stood by us the whole of Shalamars life. With a combination of target and clicker training, and for a few years medication among other things. Shalamar did learn to tolerate people in the house and became a kitty that just wanted me to hold her. She even learned to let me trim her nails, willingly! ( I have video to prove it)! It wasn't easy by any means but it was O SO WORTH IT! Would I do it again, YES!!!! If Shalamar's story teaches you anything I hope it is that you really should listen to Nancy and do exactly what she tells you and even more important that they challenging cases are worth fighting for. Shalamar was never a "normal" kitty but she was and is much loved.

After a run-in with a neighborhood cat through our patio door's window, our cat started exhibiting aggressive behaviors towards our kids- unpredictably chasing, pouncing, and scratching when they moved past him. When it continued to escalate despite our attempts to stop him, we contacted our vet and she referred us to Nancy. Working closely with our vet, Nancy helped us formulate a program using positive training and exercise that he needed to reduce his activity and reactivity. Nancy gathered a lot of detailed information from us, and spent lots of time discussing the situation with us, formulating a plan, and explaining things to us in detail. With her guidance and collaboration with our vet, we have been able to work hard to implement the program she put together for us, and our cat has not exhibited aggressive behavior in over two years. We are so grateful to Nancy for helping us address our cat's behavior- he is a beloved member of our family and we are thankful that we can all feel safe and comfortable together!

All thanks be to Nancy!!! We had fighting Scotty’s. Our boys who had been with each other for over 2 years started fighting and ended with vet visits. It was so emotionally draining on the family as well as them. We had come to our wits end and by the grace of our vet was referred to Nancy. She made no promises of making them friends, just gave us advice to get to the root of the problem and how to manage with it. Well, with all the advice and dedication to do what we needed to do to help our boys feel safe and calm I can proudly say it has helped!! We have been fight free for months now. We will continue to be on guard and keep doing all the special needs to help our babies. These guys (and gals) are our furbabies!! I can’t recommend Nancy enough!!!!

Nancy Williams is the most-talented animal behaviorist that I know. I've been a veterinarian for almost 43 years. I've known Nancy Williams since the time of her career change--21 years ago--from a talented veterinary technician within the National Institutes of Health to professional dog (and cat) trainer. I recently reached out to Nancy for some help with the most difficult case of dog-dog aggression case that is occurring within the walls of my home between our two dogs, Gus and Bella🌹. Dog-dog aggression is one of the most difficult predicaments to resolve. My wife and I are now life-long indebted to Nancy for her life-saving insights and suggestions for how to get Gus and Bella🌹 to living in a state of peaceful co-existence.

Just picked up my 1 year old Chocolate lab after a wonderful stay at Mae Berries. The ladies there are wonderful, the kennels are super cleaned with a nice bed with bedding and a throw rug. I am beyond happy I found MaeBerries. They have a customer for life. If you live in the area please look into Mae Berries you will not be disappointed. I would give them 10 plus stars. They even took adorable pictures for Thanksgiving 🧡

I had such a great experience with Maeberries that I'd recommend to anyone to book here. The information exchange prior to staying was excellent and I hope that the level of connectivity always stays the same going forward. A down-home feel instead of the stuffy chain brand kennels, and thats a HUGE bonus... I felt like family. My big guy is a bumbling dummy and managed to get himself hurt with a scratch and the staff was thoughtful, considerate and timely with their actions - I picked up my guy and knew he'd had care at the same level as he would have at home. (This was NO fault of the facility, just my guy being a big, bumbling idiot,) 10 stars! Highly recommend!

We use Maeberries for our pups every time we travel. They absolutely love going there and get great care.

The love & positive energy this place gives the dogs is amazing! Great people!
