Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!
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.
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
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!
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
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!
This was the second time Cung sat for us and once again he was amazing! Cung was great with our cat, giving him lots of love and attention. Our cat was so comfortable he snuggled up with Cung frequently, which he doesn’t always do with strangers. We got daily updates and pictures. When we returned we could tell our cat was well taken care of. Cung was so organized and clean, as well. Our apartment was spotless when we returned. That’s always nice after coming home from vacation. You should definitely have Cung sit for you! One of the top sitters on this site.
Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks 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, $21/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!
We have been using ESP Pet Specialists for about 3 years and they are FANTASTIC! They come by 2x a day and feed our 2 senior cats as well as administor their medications without any issues. We love when we receive the AM & PM Pet Journals which include a few photos and text on how the kitties are doing. ESP is an excellent pet service and we highly recommend having them take care of your fur babies while you're away. They truly go above & beyond for your pets!
ESP Pet Specialists are awesome! We hired them to watch our cats while on vacation, and Evan and Anna were great. They truly care for the well-being the pets they care for. They gave us regular updates with photos and were always there when they said they were and paid attention to the notes and instructions we left for them. I highly recommend them, they are trustworthy and so easy to work with.
Everyone at ESP Pet Specialists is amazing. They are professional, caring and will go above and beyond when needed. My pup loves Evan and I know he is getting the best care when I go away and have to leave him. I love getting updates and photos of my pup everyday while I’m away. I have tried various other pet care places. My dog was always withdrawn and nervous when I returned. Now he is his normal self , as if I had just been out for the afternoon, when I return. I would never leave him with anyone else again.
I have a big dog who is very strong and who I’m very particular about who I let around her. From day one Evan has been great and he’s been taking care of Remy for over a year now. I tried Rover and other apps and it was always a terrible experience. Having the flexibility as well as someone I can depend on has really allowed me to have peace of mind. Both Eva and Eva have gone the extra mile, given great care and paid extra attention to my requests and I can’t recommend them enough.
We love Evan, Johnny and the whole team at ESP! Over the last year, ESP has been there for us and Mocha consistently, several times a day, every week, walking him and also working with us as we navigated finding the right food and schedule for our Australian labradoodle puppy. Their dependability, flexibility, and attention to detail has been really differentiated and are attributes that we really value and appreciate. Super caring and reliable. We’ve also boarded Mocha with ESP too and the clear and constant communication flow kept us informed and at ease. Strongly recommend Evan and the team at ESP!!
We are so grateful to have found this service! Our dog Yofi is so happy when we book a walker. We also loved boarding Yofi with them, we got pictures and a story daily and he was so happy! The payment is easy and they are always reliable. We 100% recommend ESP Pet Specialists!
We have been working with ESP Pets for years to watch our dog Tashi! They are always on time, and treat him with lots of care and attention. Tashi is a slow walker and they are patient and adjust to his speed. They are flexible when last minute changes come up and we need an extra walk and are very good about safety. We also love that they offer weekend and holiday walks, something other dog walkers didn’t offer in the area. When we moved to NJ from Brooklyn that was something I was really surprised to find- not everyone has weekend times around here. We are incredibly happy with this service and Tashi is a happy dog! The walkers do a great job with photos and descriptions of the walk, and they are really good with dogs! I strongly recommend this company to anyone looking for a dog walker in the area. It’s a very convenient, reliable and high quality service!
I use ESP Pet Specialist's for overnight dog boarding while I am away. Their website is excellent for requesting your reservation and they respond very quickly. They provide many photo updates while your pet is watched. The sitter, Patty, is incredible. She does an excellent job with my pup in her home and I always know he will be cared for and safe. Her whole family embraces my animal. I highly recommend ESP Pet Specialists for all your pet needs.
If you are looking for a Dog Walking Service then you don't have to look any further than ESP. They are super professional when it comes to their walkers and support. The platform they operate on is extremely user friendly making it easy to schedule and make comments on all requested services. They make it very easy to receive updates on upcoming services, emailed reports immediately after the service is completed and the ability to provide feedback directly to the walker and management. The walkers themselves are great and very responsive and respectful to feedback. They have gone above and beyond for our dogs when it comes to feedings and cleanup (for the occasional accident). From a customer service perspective, they are FIVE STARS! They have helped us on multiple occasions with last minute requests and/or emergencies. The owner (Evan) is very approachable via phone or text when needed. They are also very accommodating when is comes to weekend, holidays and or last minute cancellations. There may be a small fee for these premium requests but they are very reasonable for what you are requesting. Again, can't recommend them enough.
We've been using ESP for about a year and they are the best! Very trustworthy and our dog just loves his walkers. We were nervous about going on vacation because our pup can be anxious and wary with strangers, but Evan and team took the time to get to know our dog and we can now go on vacation knowing our pup is in great hands. Thanks ESP!
This review is long overdue. We found Dr.Weiner about 3 years ago and followed him when he opened the vet clinic @ Pups at play. He is by the far the best vet I've had in my 20+years of owning dogs. He is knowledgeable and genuine. He checks in between their visits with specialists and is always available if you have any concerns or questions. His staff is also great!!! Can't recommend enough! Thanks for your care Pups @ play!
I can’t say enough great things about the staff at Pups@Play. They genuinely care for the dogs as if they were their own. Every time I drop off my dog, I feel confident knowing they are in safe, loving hands. The team is attentive, professional, and always goes above and beyond to ensure each dog is happy and well cared for. It’s clear they love what they do, and it shows in the way they interact with the pets. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy, dog-loving daycare!
I had a great experience at Pups at Play veterinary with Dr. Weiner . He was thorough, compassionate, and took the time to answer any questions I had about my cat’s care. Everything you look for in a veterinarian. He gave me next steps and great recommendations for a specialist. You can tell he truly cares about his patients. I highly recommend him and his team.
I love this place. The staff are friendly, understanding and accommodating. My dog is reactive and sometimes people make me feel bad about that, but they work great with him and help me work better with him. The vet is very knowledgeable and professional. I have referred others there and they took excellent care of her dog in an emergency. I am so glad I have them.
Dr Talik is the best person and Vet I have ever met. She has an amazing sense of what is really going on with my dog ! ALL the time! Every time! My dog is very anxious and has issues that Dr. Talik was able to treat. She is kind, caring! And takes her time explaining everything very clearly. She also gets down to the floor look into my dogs eyes so that she can connect on more than a human level!!! Best experience ever and if your dog has the least bit of anxiety , she is the One !!! Thank you Dr. Talik and I’m so glad I found you and Cooper is also grateful!!
Dr. Weiner and the staff at Pups@Play are outstanding. Dr. Weiner's Yorkie knowledge can only be obtained by actual experience.We traveled from Delaware so our Essex would be cared for by the best for her surgery. Thank goodness we did. Dr. Weiner is amazing. We knew we were in good hands immediately after meeting the Dr. and staff. Thank you to everyone who cared for Essex. We appreciate you!!
I love pups at play! The staff at pups at play are so caring and kind with all of the pups and are great with my girls Maggie and Coco. The groomer Melody is great! Dr. Weiner the vet is amazing. I love that it’s a one stop shop.
I just adopted a cat & went to Pups @Play after MANY recommendations. Dr. Weiner and his staff were friendly, attentive and most of all, thorough. They were gentle and patient and took the time to answer all our questions. I did not feel rushed at all. Very knowledgeable & wonderful with my kitty. I see why everyone sent me here! Highly recommend.
If you are looking for an amazing vet or even a place for day care, Pups @ Play is it! They have the most amazing staff who are passionate about all of the dogs that come to them while also treating the pet parents with the same care. I have been through a handful of medical issues with my dogs and have always felt like my concerns were heard and the amount of followup and reassurance that my dogs are in the best care is above and beyond. I only trust my dogs to be treated by pups at play and specifically Dr. Weiner and his staff. They truly are angels and I'm extremely lucky to have found them!
They are really amazing with our puppy. I also love how it’s a 1 stop shop for all our needs from boarding, training, vet, grooming etc. They are very communicative and really have taken great care of all our pets.
I highly recommend Diana! She is a very loving, caring person. Very dedicated and professional. It is amazing how much love she has for animals. Diana has taken care of my 2 doggies (Teddy and Leah)several times and they love her. She is the best!! Someone you can trust leaving your pets with. Highly recommend her, you won’t regret it 🐩🐶💕
Diana is the best at what she does. She is an amazing and caring person and ho provides a high level of love and care to our furry family member. She is very knowledgeable and experienced and takes great care to every detail including their food as she uses only natural ingredients in their diet. I have completely trust in Diana and I highly recommend her. She is extremely professional and a true animal lover.
I have known Diana for six years. She has the biggest heart for animals and will do anything to keep them safe and happy. When she is with my dogs I feel comfortable and confident they are in good hands, getting lots of love and attention.
I highly recommend this dog sitting service! They are incredibly loving and attentive, and I always feel confident that my pets are well taken care of. It’s clear they truly care about the animals, and my pets always seem happy and relaxed when I return. Fantastic service!
Diana is a great sitter! She keeps me updated on Leo and he loves her family. Highly recommended!
We adopted our guy 3 years ago and it was the best decision we ever made. The process with Stephanie and Lisa, his foster was so friendly, easy and they were so kind and checked in after we adopted him to make sure we were all adjusting well. They are an amazing group! Our friends also ended up adopting their girl through this lovely team. We are looking to adopt another family member and they are the only team we trust!
Our pup loves One Paw Away. We have used them for years and Jamie and Clay are the best. They provide updates on how our dog is doing. You can’t replace the peace of mind of knowing your pet is in great hands when travelling out of town. They also provide a grooming service so when we pick up our doggie he is smelling better than when we dropped him off!
Cooper loves going to doggy daycare at One Paw Away! He can not get out of the car fast enough to get dropped off. Jamie, Clay and Brandon are so wonderful and are always available for any questions that I have. I should also mention drop off in the morning and pickup in morristown is so accommodating, convenient and the hours are perfect for working families. Cooper loves camp, gets to run around all day with his doggy friends and comes home tired! Very happy dog! Thank you Jamie and Clay. 🐾🐶
Love these guys. The owners are great and have helped me out on a few times when I’ve been late dropping my puppy off. They send you photos every day and my dog always has a smile or her tail wagging -- she lunges towards the shop when we walk by so I know she really loves it.
We have been sending our big chocolate lab, Kobe, to One Paw Away for daycare & boarding for about a year now and we absolutely love it! Jamie & Clay treat Kobe like he’s one of their own, and Kobe absolutely adores them. We don’t have family nearby to help so they’ve been a life saver with boarding & daycare - it really feels like a home for our boy when we’re not around. I recommend One Paw Away to all of my friends with dogs!
While living in Morristown for the past year and a half we have taken our Labrador Luna to One Paw Away for Daycare and Boarding many times. She’d go to daycare twice a month and she’d be boarded there a few times a year and she always had an amazing time. Luna always came home happy and tired. You could tell how much she loved daycare by how she’d start running towards Clay as soon as she saw him while being dropped off at the bus stop. Taking her to One Paw Away was instrumental in her developing socialization skills as a young pup. Clay and Jamie are amazing at what they do and we’ve been so happy to see their business grow. If you are looking for a place where you can drop off your pup and know they’ll be in good hands, One Paw Away is the place to go!
We are over the top happy with One Paw Away, and so is our dog George! They are extremely caring and attentive, treating each dog as an individual, getting to know all their "personalities" and needs. There is such a wonderful atmosphere at One Paw Away-so positive and enthusiastic. We use both their daycare and boarding and always feel confident that he is safe and happy. Most recent photo is him having fun at One Paw!
Our dog has been going to daycare with One Paw Away weekly for two and a half years. When we first became customers, Clay and Jamie were happy to answer all our questions and give a snapshot of what a day would look like and let us see the property. The best part about One Paw Away is that the dogs are socializing all day. You could pay the same for your dog to attend another facility and spend most of the day in a crate - this isn't like that. Our dog has a blast but can also chill out or go inside if she's had enough - though her endurance has grown with the exercise over the years! The staff knows our dog and her quirks & cues and attends to them. She is ecstatic to get to the "bus stop" every week and I think she truly loves the staff. They even celebrate her birthday. We haven't had to use OPA for boarding yet but will absolutely use and recommend them in the future. OPA is convenient and gives us peace of mind. I'm so happy to see the business succeed while never forgetting that customer service and personal touch that made us come to them in the first place.
Ravi boarded with One Paw Away for almost 2 weeks and had a great time. We did a trial day first before her long stay. The boarding house is clean (it’s a family home) and everyone we spoke to was kind, friendly and knowledgeable. We loved getting daily report cards while we were away and were able to text to get one off questions answered.
Jamie and Clay have made us and our dog George truly feel like family. Since they opened One Paw Away they are always genuinely interested in giving George everything that he needs in order to be a happy healthy pup. Their recommendations for not only food but leash accessories has saved us from busting out butts on our walks around the icy morristown sidewalks. On top of all of that their day care service is TOP NOTCH. They have a doggy bus that picks up and drops off George in a timely fashion. He is always clean when he comes home, and exhausted!! We are very thankful for Clay and Jamie
My pup loves going to day care here! He enjoys the daily enrichment activities and I love the daily photo updates that the staff sends me. They’re wonderful and very flexible. Definitely recommend.
Affordable, friendly staffs, and open interview for all breeds and mix-breed is a god send. Our interview and free trial first time before admit as member is just great! App and love webcam is superb! I am updating my review for it has been a year since aperil 2023 and we are an ongoing still a happy customer. We had some small incidents, some small scratches here and there, but my fur baby is ok and he’s always happy to go to camp bow wow. Going to dog day camp and dog park helps my baby with good doggie social behavior. I think exposure with lots of dog in a group play is good for doggies.
Jaxson loves Camp Bow Wow! It’s sometimes difficult leaving him for work but I know he’s in the best hands and always has a great time. I appreciate the wonderful staff always treating him with love and care so I never need to worry when he’s not with me. Plus, they take great pics!
So far we’ve had good experiences here with day care! Staff are friendly and dog loving. Rates are good and my 1 year old dog has not had any issues. The first time he was uncharacteristically shy so we mentioned to the staff the next time and they were really helpful to reassure us and help make sure he was in the right company to play with. We’ll keep returning!
We are so happy we found Camp Bow Wow! What a great operation! They really do an outstanding job! And the staff members that have helped us are all wonderful! AJ, Taylor, FJ, Bret - all super friendly and professional! Our little Sushi had a great time and will be back very soon! Thanks to everyone at the Morris location for taking such good care of our little guy!
I appreciated them taking my dog to the vet when he got sick! and accommodating our requests and phone calls while we were away on vacation. I also liked being able to peek in the cameras and see him from time to time.
we love camp bow wow in morris! i feel my dog is well taken care of when he is there. i love the fact that the dogs have access to the outside the whole time they are there. keep up the good work!
My dog has really bad anxiety and can't be left home alone. The counselors have always been nice and he gets really excited to go to camp now.
Our girl Lexie loves Bow Wow. Once she realizes where she is going she starts crying in anticipation. Once out of the car, she is a complete lunatic to see her friends.
Gracie enjoyed her first experience at Camp Bow Wow and is excited for her first full day. The staff was very kind, attentive and friendly. Gracie and I both liked everyone we met.
Morris Animal Inn is great! My dog Alice loves playing with her friends there and comes home exhausted. Everyone there is super nice and knows you by name. It's clean and all the dogs are happy when they stay there. They even have birthday parties for your dog with a big bone cake. We love Morris Animal Inn!
A beautiful facility with caring staff. We recently left our dog Lyra in the loving care of Morris Animal Inn. When we picked her up she was happy and content. All of the staff was caring and truly loved animals, you could just tell. I’m so happy to have a place to leave our sweet pittie while we are away. Highly recommend.
The MOST difficult part about going on vacation is leaving our dog behind since he's truly a member of the family. Morris Animal Inn completely understands this. They are a Family owned and operated business with a professional, courteous, and compassionate staff bringing decades of experience taking care of your adorable fur babies. It's comforting to know our dog is in good hands while we're gone. The excitement on his face at pick up says it all.
Leaving our pup with anyone is agonizing. Who will treat your baby as well as you? Morris Animal Inn is not close to our house, but it is the only place where we feel our girl will get The Very Best care. The proof? Our girl is excited going in and is happy upon our return. So thankful for them!
Morris animal inn is always there for us. From reservations to drop off, grooming and pick up- they are thoughtful, patient, and truly love our furbabies. The piece of mind is worth it! Loving and kind, and helpful staff!
The staff at Morris Animal is fantastic and Moxie is always happy when she shows up for day care. They really do care about your pet as if it was their own. The training staff Christina and Kate (I may have forgotten a few names) help me build on good behaviors and reduce her leash reactivity. Moxie is thrilled to be able to swim!!
What a great first experience boarding our 2 cats, just over a year old. Seamless check in and check out, and most importantly our family had great peace of mind while on vacation, knowing our cats were safe, sound, secure and boarded together as requested. So happy we found Morris Animal Inn at Morristown through an online search!
My golden retriever, Winnie, has been in the puppy enrichment program and has just graduated into adult daycare. She LOVES it there! All the staff at Morris Animal Inn are great. They have been so kind and professional. I know she is in good hands while I am at work.
Since our dog Duncan was a puppy, Morris Animal Inn has helped us in so many ways. He began with training sessions and lodging. We saw how much he enjoyed MAI that we decided to send him to daycare, which he considers "playcare" weekly. Five years later, MAI is a place that Duncan always looks forward to going to. He literally jumps out of the car every time! The staff is caring and trustworthy and I know that when I drop Duncan off, for the day or for ten days, he could not be in a better place. We are so grateful to have found such an amazing second home for our dog!!!
Morris Animal Inn, took good care of my cat, for a few days while I was away. They provided updates, and at pick up, the staff let me know his current state. I will be bringing my fur baby back, as I know he will be in good hands.
Pack mentality is phenomenal. Our family went away for the first time without our dogs. Pack Mentality sent us multiple daily updates including photos of our happy dogs faces. They absolutely love dogs, and you can tell when you meet their team and they greet your dogs with so much love and kindness. This will be the only place going forward that I will board my dogs. These are some of the photos that they sent me while we weee away.
I have been taking my French bulldogs for several months after testing out other daycares. We all love this place and Al the working staff. The daycare is so welcoming and so flexible. I am enormously grateful to them for the love and attention they have shown to my girls who are always excited to go off for daycare in the morning. All members of the staff are reliable, trustworthy and dependable, my girls love it at pack mentality.
Joining the “Pack” was the best decision we made for our girl Willow. She is always SO excited when we get there and she can’t wait to get in the door. The staff is so welcoming, friendly and supportive. They send so many pictures of our girl during the day and overnight. There is ALWAYS someone there The dogs are never unattended. She even gets to sleep on the bed with the overnight attendant and other dogs. The facility is very clean as well. We had a situation where we had to go away but couldn’t board because of a recent surgery and they went above and beyond to accommodate us which made it possible for me to relax and enjoy the festivities of the weekend. Pack Mentality is the best around.
Our pup Kaya absolutely loves pack mentality and all their staff and it’s clear that they love her too! We do half days, full days and overnights and she always comes back happy. They walk and feed her meals making it super easy when we pick her up and the pictures sent during the day are always a fun surprise! We have complete trust in pack mentality and highly recommend it for your pup!
We have been going to pack mentality for over 6 months now and absolutely love it. Our puppy Bailey loves it and is always so excited to go. Gabe and the rest of the staff are amazing with her. When we drop her off in the morning she is always excited to give them a kiss. We were searching for a doggie day care and a place to board our puppy because I was pregnant and in my last trimester so I needed some help with getting her energy out. We tried another daycare and had such a bad experience with it so finding the right daycare was important to us. The best part of pack mentality is that they do not use cages. We never feel guilty or worried about leaving her there since it is a home away from home for our puppy Bailey!
This review is long overdue! For over a year now Pack Mentality has given our high-energy pup socialization and fun times in a safe and caring environment. Gabe owns and operates an excellent daycare and boarding facility that goes above and beyond. He and his team know and love dogs and they certainly understand the affectionate yet goofy personality of our now 2 yr. old Lab. They have also been extremely understanding and flexible with time and days when we have needed some extra help. Our boy loves all the staff and is always eager to get inside - just ask Caitlin! Pictures and end of day updates reassure us that he is having a great time. Thank you, Gabe, and all the crew for taking such good care of our boy.
My dog is always excited to go in and play and is sweetly exhausted by the time i pick him up. The staff is very caring & you can tell love the dogs. I feel very comfortable with my pup being there. The daily pictures are a fantastic bonus & i always look forward to receiving them.
I started taking my dog Cooper to Pack Mentality a year ago with the thought process that it probably WOULD NOT work out because my dog has separation anxiety, epilepsy, and since he is a rescue - a multitude of fears, the biggest one being of men. He becomes paralyzed with fear and is the equivalent of a very heavy statue. The only glimmer of hope I had was that he loves other dogs. Fast forward to now, I am pretty sure Cooper loves the owner Gabe more than he loves me! Pack has been so amazing that when I took on a second dog, a puppy, they immediately became familiar with her at 6.5 weeks old until she was able to start daycare as well. I won’t take my dogs anywhere else. Even if I moved, I would travel just to bring my dogs here because it is the only place I feel comfortable. My favorite things about Pack: - The owner takes his time with more timid dogs and really assesses the dogs to make sure they will get along without incident - Gabe, Chris and Caitlin are very personable and will contact you via the chat system with photos and any questions you may have - When boarding, they are not being kenneled. Someone is staying with the dogs at all times. - They have their own vet tech, heaven forbid something did happen (example: If my dog cooper has a seizure) they do have someone to check him out - They have an on-site groomer - Affordable
We have been using Pack Mentality for our dog for almost a year now. We have been extremely satisfied with the daycare and boarding procedures. Our dog loves to go to “camp”. I love that they keep in contact with you, sending pictures of your dog during their stay. On one of her visits, my dog hurt herself, and we were informed of the situation, she was provided with the proper care, and everything was handled for us. I can assure you, this does not happen everywhere. I highly recommend Pack Mentality!
Pack Mentality has been a life saver. We rescued our pup a year ago, and she has severe separation anxiety. She cannot be in a crate and cannot be left alone. In July, we were expecting a baby and needed to find a place to bring Lilo. We came across Pack Mentality in June and started acclimating her. When I got the first picture of how she would spend her nights, all curled up among dogs on what looked like a mattress, I cannot describe the sense of relief. She looked…content. Pack Mentality is the perfect place for her. Now, she really seems to enjoy it. And they send the best pictures.
Camp Bow Wow is pawsitively the best place for my fur baby, Clover! From the moment she steps paw inside, it's fun all day long. The staff are always so furriendly and attentive, ensuring Clover has a tail-wagging good time. It's like a pup paradise where Clover gets to play, make furry friends, and receive lots of belly rubs! Thank you, Camp Bow Wow, for giving Clover a place where she can romp, play, and be her adorable self!
My puppy, Millie loves Camp Bow Wow in Rockaway. Attending a few hours of day care has helped her reduce separation anxiety and has realized helped socialize her with people and other dogs. The staff is super friendly, especially Kelly, who always greets us with a smile in the morning and is extremely accommodating.
We boarded our girl, Piper for 5 nights. The staff is super friendly and always so kind. It was great that they offer live web cams because I was able to check in on her whenever I wanted. When my husband picked her up, they had nothing but nice things to say about Piper. 10/10 will use again and I highly recommend to anyone who’s looking! Not to mention they do day care and training!
Our Cloud has terrible anxiety, which has been really difficult for our family in regards to going away or leaving him alone for the day. To have Camp Bow Wow as an option for him to socialize and get energy out, as well as be a safe and happy when boarded overnight, it’s been an absolute game changer!! The staff took time to make sure Cloud didn’t feel anxious with them, and they are always so kind to him if he does get a bit nervous. There is no other place where Cloud is so happy to be around people and other dogs!
Our perfectly healthy dog had a 3 day stay and wound up with kidney issues that put him in the hospital for a week. This was caused by one of two issues. Since they do not walk the dogs, he was not comfortable going to the bathroom in their facility. Or he licked or ate something there. The staff took no responsibility for his sickness or the very large vet bill from his treatment and stay at the vet.
Finn always has a great time and a wonderful experience at Camp Bow Wow Rockaway. When we pull up to the light in front of the building, he starts to go crazy. When I parked the car, he drags me inside to see his friends. Nothing makes you feel more comfortable when you’re leaving your dog, with someone that’s not you
My dog has had the most amazing experience at Camp Bow Wow . This place is so professional, and so caring towards the animals and towards their owners. The services that they also do is very special to the pets. I unfortunately can use the one in Rockaway during the summer months for my winter home is not near there. When I return in the spring, I will definitely be bringing her back there. I highly recommend this place and the employees that work there. The owner should be very grateful for them. They are truly blessed to have such dedicated, humbling, compassionate employees.
My 9 month old pup loves it, she burns excess energy and really loves to socialize with other dogs. The facility and staff are awesome
Jack and Dawson love Camp Bow Wow. They are day and over night boarders. They participate in enrichment activities. They are groomed at Camp Bow Wow. They are trained there too. They jump up and down for joy when I say Camp Bow Wow! The staff members are experts in dogs and the staff is phenomenal.
Dusty loves camp and is wiped out after every day at Camp BowWow. Great staff and they treat their animals here with care and respect. Great place to leave your dogs for boarding or for daycare. I’d recommend Camp Bowwow to anyone with dogs!
K9 Resorts in Madison is hands down the best run, most professional and most personable doggie daycare I've had the pleasure of using for my great dane, Stella. Stella has been going to the Madison location on a regular basis (3x week) for the past ten months. She has also boarded there on several occasions. They take amazing care of her and leave me with zero concerns as to her well being. The biggest reason I go to K9 Resorts in Madison is not due to the K9 name. It is due to the wonderful owners and staff. They are what make it special. Would highly recommend the team and their facility to any dog owner looking for comfort and peace for both their dog and themselves! I'll let the photos speak for themselves...
Having a relationship with K-9 madison for almost 10 years now, I can’t imagine there is any other doggie daycare that even comes close to the treatment, professionalism and communication provided here. Since day 1 Ivan, Teresa and the entire staff have treated my dogs like family. Day camp or boarding this is where you pup will want to be! I say “k-9” and Bauer runs right to the car and can’t wait to get there and comes home exhausted from the exercise and fun he has clearly had. Definitely 5 star doggie resort in every way possible!
Great staff, clean facility. They really care about safety, and making our pup comfortable. This was her first night away from home and when we picked her up she was as happy as can be. EDIT: I want to add a little to this review. Over time, we've had a few short stays with them. Even though we are not frequent customers, the staff have gotten to know Harley and have gone above and beyond to help us work with her and her excitement level around other dogs. Their kindness and positive attitude trying to integrate her into "the pack" is really appreciated.
Ivan, Theresa and Staff came to our rescue when our pet-sitter was suddenly not able to take care of our dog and we were leaving for a 2-week overseas trip. Maggie was obviously well taken care of and while away the staff at K9 took my few calls about how Maggie was doing and gave me thorough updates and even posted a few photos and a video of Maggie hanging out with the other doggies. My wife and I along with Maggie want to thank you so much for caring for her!
K9 Madison is wonderful. They take exceptional care of my dog. They treat him like family. The people are so nice and care so much about the dogs. My dog loves going. He is so excited and jumps right out of the car to run inside! Can’t say enough good things!
The staff members at K9 Resorts Madison are wonderful. They're incredibly caring and attentive, and greeted our dog by name every time he came in for overnight boarding. I highly recommend K9 Resorts Madison for anyone looking for a fantastic pet boarding / daycare facility!
K9 Resorts in Madison is second to none! My dog is well taken care of during daycare and when boarding. Staff members treat all dogs as if they were their own pets. I also appreciate the cleanliness of their facility!
Our dog gets so excited when we pull up into the K-9 parking lot. The staff is very friendly and we know Max is very well taken care of. He's been coming here for daycare and boarding for 6+ years, couldn't be happier.
K-9 Madison is fabulous! The owners are hands-on, smart, engaging, and know our dog. She is excited to be there and is welcomed with care. The facility is clean, and the separation of small and large dogs, with both indoor and outdoor play areas, works very well. We also love that there is playtime over the weekend during boarding. Day care flexibility is super helpful and cost is very reasonable.
We love K9 resorts! They are always so accommodating and caring towards our high maintenance fur baby. The first time we boarded our dog, he was nervous and didn't want to eat. They told us they had to sit in his room with him, rub his belly, and tell him he was a good boy to get him to finish his meal haha they really go above and beyond!
We went away for 5 days and were nervous to leave our baby with a pet sitter for the first time ever. We can say now as long as it’s Jaime we will never be nervous again! As you can see our cat loved her lol. We received daily photos, all directions were followed as given in regards to feedings/supplements and litter scooping and she even vacuumed around the box which I didn’t ask of her! Came home to a happy, healthy and loved kitty 😊
Jamie is wonderful! She took such great care of our little guy while we were away for a few days! I was green in the area of pet sitting because I usually take the pets everywhere with me lol. But Jamie exceeded my expectations by far! We also communicated daily while I was away, and she even sent me daily pics of my little guy. It was because of Jamie that I could relax while away! My entire family thanks her for that.
Jaime is amazing. Truly the best pet sitter I have ever had. I struggled to find someone who’d care for my ferret, but she went above and beyond. She’ll love your pets as if they were her own, and you’ll always have peace of mind when you’re away. Trust that your fur babies will be in excellent care here!!!
Jaime was great with my dog! It was my first time hiring a dog walker but she exceeded the expectation! I received a photo after the walks and he looked so happy. I even noticed his appetite increased which is a great sign that jaime provided much needed exercise.
Jamie is such a delight to work with. She quickly bonded with our dog. She provides great care and love to our fur baby. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a passionate dog walker . She continues to be reliable and trustworthy.
We hired Jaime to care for our pets in our home while we were away for almost two weeks. We have quite a menagerie - 4 cats and 3 dogs, several of whom have special needs. Jaime was amazing with meeting all of their needs. She kept in touch via text several times during the first few days which gave us great peace of mind. We returned home to happy, healthy pets. If Jaime can handle our handful, she can handle anything! Highly recommend.
We’ve used Jamie now twice with our big boy Archie! Jamie is absolutely amazing and has treated our needy boy pristinely! Our first experience with Jamie found us in a pinch and needing a dog sitter for an unplanned trip. Jamie helped us calm down and made time to make sure we and Archie were comfortable with her. Needless to say we were sold and haven’t looked back since! Jamie thinks about the things most walkers/sitters don’t… she checks the temperature, she pulls in packages if they’re out front, and sends you photos of your furry one without being asked. If you need any of the services Jamie offers, do yourself a favor and book her. You won’t regret it and most importantly, your furry friend(s) will have the best time! We highly recommend Jamie!
Jaime takes really good care of our dog Jager. He seems to be happier than when we leave him behind. She’s super nice - super reliable - I recommend Jaime to take care of your pets while you’re away or even while you’re around.
Jamie stayed at our house with our dog Ollie for an extended stay to care for our dog while we were away and she was absolutely fantastic. Ollie is a senior dog, and he needs twice daily shots of insulin for diabetes, and Jamie managed his care beautifully. Jamie was extremely caring , making sure to keep Ollie well socialized during our absence. She was available in real time to update us, and extremely diligent about ensuring that Ollie was always a happy dog. She was also extremely respectful of our home, which she also took great care of while we were away. We really felt like Jamie treated our dog, and us , like we were her family, and we look forward to working with her again in the future.
I was looking for someone who would stay overnights with Cleo when I have to travel for work. I'm new in town so I had a lot of anxiety about finding someone trustworthy and skilled, but Jaime put all my worries to rest. She is very easy to work with, pays careful attention to all instructions and sends multiple updates during the day. Cleo took to Jaime right away and did very well while I was away. She didn't show any sign of stress, which was my top priority. Everything worked out perfectly. I'm lucky to have found Jaime.
