Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
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!
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Great sitter would hire Stephen and Jenny in a heartbeat. Great with dogs cat and house
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
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!
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!
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!
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, 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!
We love The Barker House! We having been sending Rosie since she was 6 months old! They greet her every day she attends with warm, genuine affection. I know she loves going because she is always excited to go there! My favorite part is that the dogs get so much time to play outside! As an energetic 3 year old black Labrador, she needs lots of play time and lots of snuggles. At the Barker House she gets both ~ I would highly recommend them!
Our pup has been going here since they opened and every morning that is a daycare day he's already downstairs waiting by the door ready to go! The staff is amazing! Last thing I'll say is we love having a place for our pup to stay when we go away and knowing that he is in good hands. If the tail wag doesn't say enough when you drop them off and pick them up, then surely the daily pictures of the smile on your dog's face will!
I have entrusted Ruby to Barker House Doggy Day Care, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I walked in, I knew Ruby was in good hands. The staff at Barker House is top-notch. They’re friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about each dog that walks through their doors. It’s evident that they love what they do. The facility is immaculate. The attention to cleanliness and safety is commendable. Ruby absolutely adores Barker House and especially Sam, when she is dropped off, she runs right to her. Spacious backyard provide ample opportunities for play and socialization. Plus, the pool is a big hit during hot days which Ruby isn't a big fan of but the rest of the pups love it. Throughout the day, I received adorable photo updates of Ruby having fun with her friends. It puts my mind at ease knowing she is enjoying herself. They treat every dog like family, and that peace of mind is priceless. Barker House Doggy Day Care is more than just a place for dogs—it’s a haven where tails wag, hearts melt, and memories are made. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any dog parent seeking exceptional care. 🐶❤️
I want to thank the barker house so much. They have an incredible staff. My dog buddy was comfortable after day one of going there. After trying another more local daycare I know now not everyone is the same. I will drive the extra time to bring buddy here. Sam is amazing. So is so responsive and buddy loves her so much.
They do a wonderful job with our little anxious pup for both grooming and boarding! They truly care and love all the pups!
For baby loves staying with his friends at the Barker house. The staff is exceptional and cares for all the dogs in such a wonderful way. I highly recommend the Barker house..
Let me just say the people at Barker House are genuinely wonderful. They care about the pups pleasant and easy to communicate with. My Jack Russell is a sweet girl but shes a Jack and can be tough and strong willed and they make me feel like shes liked and very well cared for. Would recommend this place to anyone. Its further than the Daycare shes coming from (Home Pack Pups). I dont feel the love there so the added distance isnt issue to feel secure about the level of care my pup gets
Our Mascot Quinn is a 7 month old Newfoundland at 125 pounds. He is my baby and I worry, as all moms do if I do the right thing by him. I have to say.....taking Quinn to The Barker House is one of the BEST decisions I have ever made. I am a small business owner for pets and my expectation is VERY high. They do not disappoint. I cannot say enough wonderful things about them. If you are on the fence...jump it. You will be so very happy.
Big thank you to the staff at the Barker House. My fiancé and I were able to vacation out of the country for a week with confidence that our two dogs were in good hands. Amber was extremely responsive to our emails with questions and updates on how they were doing. The daily pictures also helped ease our minds and put smiles on our faces when we missed them dearly. We would 10/10 recommend!!
Sam and staff at Barker House are fantastic! Our 5 month old Golden loved staying at Barker House for Spring Break! The daily photos were great, we could tell she was playing and having a great time. I highly recommend Barker House for boarding and grooming. We will be customers for a long long time! Thanks!
We boarded our very nervous rescue with Angie and the experience was wonderful! We did a once a week daycare to prepare our little one. She was tail wagging the day we dropped her off for boarding. She loved it there and Angie is very kind, patient, loving. Five stars all the way! Highly recommend Angie's Pet Care! So happy we found her!
Dogs love it!!! Nice set up & location. Angie is so nice & easy to work with. Very helpful!!
Angie puts the care in pet care. The animals love her and she and her staff love the animals.
Angie is great She really has a way with pets and is so concientous.
Great place! It's clean and well run. My dog likes it there.
I wouldn’t bring my 4 dogs anywhere else. The owners are great people and the care for the animals is unmatched. They have a fenced area so your dogs will get exercise rather than be in a kennel all day.
Harley loved his week at doggy camp.
My Sophie has been going since she was a puppy. She is now 12 years old and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog! Christine’s Pet Care is the best.
Ashley at Sandy Paws takes care of our two dogs anytime we go out of town! She also visits them once a week for some puppy playtime and to let them out while I’m at work. They absolutely love her, and I know they’re happy and healthy anytime she’s with them. The pictures and videos she sends me make my day and we just love seeing how much fun our furry kids are having! She takes her personal dogs on all kinds of fun hikes and other adventures, so while I haven’t yet used the dog walking service at Sandy Paws, I know my dogs would love it! I would highly recommend Ashley and her services to anyone and everyone!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Puppy Love Pet Care! April not only takes my dog on play dates three days a week, but she also watches him at her home while I'm away. Henry adores April and playing with all of his friends! It's also comforting to know that Henry is with a family that adores him while I'm away and not locked up in a kennel.
If your looking for a loving, caring, trustworthy person to take care of your “Fur baby” either to walk or help you with training, or to watch while your away. April is the BEST! She helped us with our dogs and continues to help us anytime we need her. Our dogs love playing with her and she works magic with hyper puppies! We continue to recommend Puppy Love Pet Care to all our friends & family ❤️ Kim & Mike .. Holbrook
April is a Godsend. . I was anxious about finding the right fit for a walker for my high energy GSP when I moved to Pembroke. By chance I found April on Facebook and set up a meeting. She came over to meet Gus and it was a great fit from the start. The only downside is I think Gus likes April better than me now :-( From a business perspective - she is super responsive, flexible with weekly schedules changing, and her rates are awesome for the quality of care. I highly recommend April to anyone moving to the area!
We have used Puppy Love Pet Care for our dog Murphy on multiple occasions. All I can say is April is amazing and our dog loves her and everyone at Puppy Love! When they stay with her they are treated like one of her own dogs. Highly recommend!!
My Dog has been doing Daycare with April now for about 6 months and its the best thing I could of done for him. April is so caring, and really loves her pups. I also did a 3 night sleepover while I went away and I seriously do not think my guy missed me cause he had so much fun with April and her family. I highly recommend this business! A+++
I might be biased because the owner is my sister, but April is truly amazing with her fur baby guests! When we go away for vacations or long weekends that our pup can't attend, we drive all the way from NH (2 1/2 hrs!!) to pembrook so April will have her!! I highly recommend Puppy Love Pet Care!!
April has been watching our Molly for the past 1.5 years. We found her through a personal recommendation and never looked back. She is so loving & caring with the dogs and helps with anything you on are working on -training wise ( bonus) . Molly is also socialized on these days, playing with many of her other dogs she takes care of. April also does sleepeovers and Molly comes home exhausted and so very happy. I would highly recommend April to anyone looking for a dog walker/pet sitter.
Thank you so much!
Hello, I don't think we have met. Im so sorry that you felt you needed to rate 1 star! What could i do to change this?
Thank you 💕🐾 …
The Secret Garden has a great boarding facility. Our very reactive dog has stayed with them many times. They always take their time with him to ensure both he and they are safe. He loves his daily walks around the grounds. the dogs are not kept in small crates. They have their own little kennel to move around in with a raised dog bed. It’s fun to see pictures of him posted on Facebook everyday while we are away. They are very responsive to text messages during business hours. They always respond in a reasonable timeframe when I text to check in on him. I can’t say enough great things about the staff! Thanks for all you do to keep our pup safe while we are away. Adding a few photos they took from his most recent stay.
The team at secret garden continue to help me feel comfortable and stress free while i am away knowing my two dogs are being well taken care of. They post tons of pictures daily and are so helpful with any questions you may have. Thank you secret garden for always taking such great care of Stallion and Rollie!
We love the Secret Garden! More importantly we know our pup loves the whole experience. He is so excited when we pick him up, which is nice to see that he misses us. When we get home he naps almost the rest of the day or evening. We all appreciate the attention and play time he receives. Also, it’s fun to see on facebook the new friends he’s made too. The Secret Garden has lots of space for the pups to play and walk. We always add in a nature walk too when he stays. On the day we pick him up we’ll add an exit bath for him so he’s nice and clean for when he comes home. I’m so happy I don’t have to do that myself anymore. He’s a Husky German Shepherd mix which means an obscene amount of fur! ALL YEAR LONG. I have a hard time bathing his gazillion layers of fur. Leave it to the professionals. It’s worth it every time.
I never felt comfortable boarding my dog anywhere in the past until I found Secret Garden. They are truly the best place I have ever found! The entire place is clean, the staff is wonderful. The kennels are amazing and not the stackable type! It’s like every dog has their own little paradise! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. My dog never comes back smelling or having any skin issues !! He’s an English bulldog so he is prone to skin issues if not kept clean. I truly think this is the best place and would recommend to everyone!
We have boarded our 3 year old Greater Swiss Mountain dog and 3 year old Basset Hound there 3 times in the past year and have had a great experience. When we pick up our dogs they are happy and healthy and because of this we know they have had the best care possible while at Secret Garden. It is not just a dog kennel in a tiny location, it truly is a resort for your pets because of the land they have. We really like the way they conducted the evaluation before they would allow our dogs to stay there. They evaluate them for hours which gives you and the staff a better understanding on how they will fit in a Secret Garden. And lastly, we feel they have a great grooming service. When we pick them up they alway look and smell clean.
My family and I absolutely love bringing our pets to Secret Garden! We love that we can reach out to them at any time and they are extremely responsive and always helpful and polite! Our pets always come home happy and tired as they are spending a great deal of time playing and socializing we are so fortunate to have such a great facility near our home.
Our two labs love the Secret Garden. Girls keep up the great work
Secret Garden Pet Resort in East Bridgewater is AMAZING!!!!! My dog loves being there and I can enjoy what I'm doing, because I don't have to worry about him. I have peace of mind knowing that the staff is taking great care of him. My family and myself can see pictures of him on their Facebook page, so we can see him enjoying his time there while we are enjoying our time away. Thank you Secret Garden & to the Staff for always providing the best service for me and my dog!
I am so grateful I found secret garden! I have 2 dogs- one that is very anxious- and knowing that they have a safe place to go when I am out of town where they will be cared for and loved like they are at home is incredible! They’re able to play and socialize together, share a room, and get lots of energy out. The staff is so kind, and getting updates and seeing loads of photos of my happy pups was so reassuring while I was gone.
Excellent loving care for your dog when you can’t take them with you . Clean premises. Caring staff. My dog can’t wait to get in there when we arrive. Definitely a good sign.
