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.

Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.
Lea is seriously the best! We lucked out big time with her as our house sitter. She didn't just watch our home; she made it sparkle, and our dog Mezy? Well, he fell head over paws for her! Mezy's doesn't always warm up to new folks so easily but Lea had this magical charm that had him wagging his tail from day one. She showered him with cuddles and playtime, and we got daily photo updates that were basically cuteness overload. But Lea didn't stop at being the dog whisperer. Every nook and cranny was squeaky clean, and it felt like we were walking into a Pinterest-worthy home. Our plants thrived under her care too. Communication was a breeze with Lea. She kept us in the loop about everything and replied to our messages super quickly. It gave us peace of mind knowing she had everything under control. Lea's not just a house sitter - her friendly, laid-back vibe made everything so easy. We can't thank her enough for taking such great care of Mezy and our home. We're definitely booking her for all our future adventures. If you want your pets to adore your house sitter and come back to a spotless home, Lea is the one to call. Thanks a million, Lea!
David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Great sitter and kept in contact regularly. Would gladly have her sit for my dog again.
Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.
We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth. We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.
Tom and Diana were perfect house sitters and guests. Great company, our dog immediately made herself at home with Tom. Animals loved and cleaned. House spotless, great communication and even left a thank you card and gift when they left. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.

My wife and I are very particular regarding the care of our pet, we are so pleased that we met Susan from Barkley’s, she visited our home and immediately bonded with him! She kept us informed while we were away and was very responsive during the entire process! We will absolutely have complete confidence in Barkley’s for our future needs!
Barkley’s was extremely flexible and professional! I received text messages and updates that put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Susan and will definitely use her in the future!
We brought our 2 year old golden here for her very first haircut. We had always been nervous to bring her to a groomer. This place was amazing. They were very friendly. We know she was in good hands. Her haircut turned out great. We will definitely be back.
Pine Hill has watched my two very different dogs many times, and, at times, with very little advance notice. They always put my big dog Josie in the same kennel she had become familiar and comfortable with. She has access to a large play area outdoors and can sometimes socialize with other dogs. I trust the Pine Hill staff to do what is best for each dog and their unique needs. My tiny 6 lb dog is kept comfortably in a different area where she can remain calm and given freedom to explore, under staff supervision, out of her contained area. I do trust Pine Hill with the care and safety of all dogs and cats.
I've boarded pets here twice & both times i've been very satisfied with the accommodations for them and the communication from the family
Only giving two stars cause both dogs are still alive. My friend and I boarded our two dogs there this past week(boarded for 7 days). She had boarded her big dog before and didnt have any problems as they coddled her dog. So I was confident when we boarded our dogs together that they would be ok (we room together so the dogs are familiar with each other) My dog is a little maltipoo and he now is super sick (started next day after picking him up). I noticed the day of picking him up that he had lost a significant amount of weight (he wears male wraps so that is how I knew initially, confirmed later). They were told he was a picky eater and he was sent with wet food (only 3 used). So I can picture them feeding them together and if he didnt eat the dry food, my friends big dog chowed down and they thought mine had eaten. When looking in his bag I sent with him, he loves toys, and not one of his toys was moved from the bag (or dirtied, trust me the dogs and their beds were DIRTY so I know they werent touched). My friends big dog had a cut reopened on her side, bruised on her belly and is super sick. My dog had a huge nose scrape and is super sick (puking, diarrhea, not eating, pale). We have reached out to them and heard nothing back. When picking them up, the attitudes were enough to never kennel my dog ever again. If that is how they treat humans, who knows how my dog or my friends dog was treated. The staff is only there a couple hours a day so your dog will get no attention except a bowl slapped down and a shout to come in from outside. Sure it is cheap, but comes with cheap care. So if you have a picky eater, a dog who is attatched to you…I would never recommend this place.
Love Pine Hill Kennels! We have been going here for years any time we need a place to board our dog, and most recently we even boarded our cat there due to home renovations happening while we were gone. The staff is so friendly and they love animals. They always have availability and our dog LOVES it there. So much play time and outdoor time! We always make sure to get her a bath before we pick her up since she loves to play so much. Thank you for loving our fur babies as your own!
They are reliable and staff are friendly. Limited hours for drop off and pick up. Probably not a lot of play time for the dogs. It is a basic boarding facility with reasonable prices.
We took our 4 month old puppy to Pine Hill Farm Pet Care for a day of doggy daycare and grooming. They were absolutely wonderful and did everything to ensure a smooth and safe visit for our puppy! The owner went above and beyond to make sure our dog, and us as owners felt comfortable to ensure a happy stay when we board him over night soon! I would highly recommend this Kennel for all of its services. It is like an extension of our home for our fur baby! We will definitely be back time and time again!
We have used them twice to board our dogs for 1+ week. We have had a great experience and dogs always come home in great spirits. I can understand if updates on how pets are doing can be time consuming but I do wish they at least provided a recap of how the dogs were upon pickup.
Heidi made our sweet Belgian Groenendael look amazing! Scarlett went from Wild Child to a Prim & Proper lady! Thank you😀👏❤🐾 …
I took both of my dogs for a nail trim today. My baby girl is a rescue and very scared but the owner did amazing with both of them. We will definitely be returning for all their grooming needs. Thanks for doing such a great job with them.
Took my very anxious recently adopted doodle here for a 5 night stay. We were even able to come for a short trial visit before her stay. The kennels were very spacious and clean. They went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and happy during her stay.
The quality and care that Josh and his family have shown for dogs is incredible. Koda seemed to have adjusted well for never have been boarded before. They are amazing and we will be using them for any future stays! 💖 Thank you Josh and family for loving on our dogs! We appreciate you so much! …
Great service for dogs! Very spacious, clean kennels. Kind and caring owners. We will be taking our dog here again when needed.
Our dogs have been to several different boarding facilities and never back for a second time. They will definitely be going back here. My dogs were well taken care of and I had no worries! Got pictures of them while they were there, communication was great!! Highly recommend
The quality of care they provided sure a recent stay was exceptional and I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a safe and loving place for their dog.
Tysm for taking good care of our doggos while we were on vacation. The security of knowing our dogs are ok, that's priceless :)
