Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!
Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
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
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!
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.
Romina and Ignas took amazing care of our two dogs and home while we were away! One of our dogs, Beau, is extremely high energy and it takes a special person so make sure he gets enough mental and physical stimulation each day. Romina kept us in the loop of his trips to parks and outdoor excursions. She was very thoughtful and responsive during our time away. Additionally, our home was in pristine shape when we returned from our trip. The rooms were clean and tidy and Romina left us such a thoughtful note. Romina and Ignas are top notch sitters and I'd highly recommend them to anyone with pets! Thank you so much, Romina and Ignas. Our dogs were so well cared for and loved.
Alia is a wonderful furbaby sitter and also a wonderful person. It is our privilege to have her for the 3rd time. She keeps us informed, our dogs love her, and she even cooked dinner and left it for us. The house was perfect when she left.

We met Tim back around 2002. After using 2 other pet sitting services that lied & put our pets at serious risk...They said they were at our place ,but they both lied. That's when I did a extensive search for a new pet sitter. We found Summit Pet Sitting , we met with Tim & looked over his all his referrals & found them to be terrific ... One of my cats was Diabetic & Tim is totally trained in giving injections. Both our cats were loving cats .Merlin was a dog in a cats body. Sheba was a bit more of a one person cat, but in time Tim was able to gain her trust. If we asked Tim to call or other certain requests he was awesome. He is loyal, trustworthy & caring person. I can not endorse Tim & Summit Pet Sitting enough.
Tim has been caring for our dogs and fish in our home for the past 7 years. We are now moving out of state and literally the worst part about leaving is that we will no longer have Tim around to take care of our animals (we tried to convince him to go with us but he politely declined). We found Tim 7 years ago after a bad experience with a previous pet sitter. Before we found Tim, we had been ready to cancel a trip because we were no longer comfortable leaving our dogs with the pet sitter we had been using. We found Tim, called his (glowing) references, had him over to meet our animals, and we hired him at the last minute. Since then, he has probably stayed at our house at least 25 times over the years. We have had our dogs stay at his house several times as well. Tim is very flexible and accommodating. Our dogs love him. He probably takes better care of them than we do. We never worry at all anymore when we have to travel because we know they are in very good hands. We would 1000% recommend him to anyone who is looking for the absolute best care for their fur-kids!
Tim has been our dog-sitter for the past few years and he has consistently provided us with reliable service. Most recently, Tim watched our dogs during our honeymoon. He noticed one of our dogs had a foot infection and took her to the vet after consulting us. We are grateful his attentiveness to our dogs' well-being led to a speedy recovery. He writes daily reports on our dogs' activities and also takes care of your mail/plants/others as needed. In addition, our dogs love seeing Tim whenever he walks into the apartment -- this gives us a tremendous peace of mind when we have to leave them home. We highly recommend Tim for pet-sitting services.
Timothy Smith is the owner of Summit Pet Sitting. He has been walking our Lhasa Apso "Lexi " three mornings a week for nearly three years. During that stretch he has never missed an appointment. On the rare occasion he can't make it he finds a substitute walker so our service is uninterrupted. You cannot find reliability like that anywhere! Besides his dependability, Timothy is very trustworthy. He has had a key to our home for the duration of the relationship. He can be counted on to let himself into the house, leash & walk our dog, responsibly dispose of the poop, fill the food & water dishes, and lock the door on the way out. In the beginning Tim made sure the dog was comfortable with him. It didn't take long for Lexi to warm up to him and now she looks forward to seeing him! Timothy also will administer medications to Lexi whenever necessary such as the time she had an ear infection and needed ointment applied. He also reports anything unusual like the time Lexi had a urinary tract infection. He noticed blood in her urine and texted a picture to me right away so we could bring her to the vet ASAP. We also board our dog with Tim whenever we travel. He will bring Lexi to his house and care for her like she is his own pet. In addition to his top notch service, Timothy is very reasonably priced. He provides excellent value but most importantly he puts our minds at ease knowing Lexi is in safe hands. He also seamlessly handled a few instances where we had a second dog at our house and treated that dog exactly the same as Lexi at no additional cost. I highly recommend Summit Pet Sitting for all your pet needs!
Tim is awesome. We have 3 hounds, Cora, Mojo and Bennie. They loved being cared by him. He sends pictures and truly cares about his guests. We have used him twice and were extremely satisfied. When we mention his name the tails begin to wag profusely. My wife and I get jealous. Highly recommend this company. Safe, reliable, dependable and affordable pet care.
Summit Pet Sitting is the best. Tim gets my dog. She is an older dog and can get stubborn and cranky. Tim still gets her to walk and play and makes sure she is cared for and safe. He also gives her her medications and never charges extra fees like the kennels do. I could not recommend him more highly. I can go on vacation with total peace of mind.
Tim has always been great with our dogs, and you can tell from the very first encounter that he is an animal person through and through. We always know that boarding with him is their home away from home, and can’t recommend his services enough!
Dealing with Tim is fantastic! Tim took care of our lab "Sarge" for a few days while we were on vacation and we didn't worry once about his care. We would receive daily updates and picture/videos of him hanging out and during playtime. It was a great experience dealing with Summit Pet Sitting.
We have a 3 year old Boxer mix named Koda who is a rescue. She is incredibly wary and fearful of strangers and loudly announces her feelings. We are trying to work on this with her but we still have a ways to go! We recently got married and on that weekend, lost our trusted dog sitter as they were also at the wedding. We got a recommendation from a good friend of ours who is also a local town’s Animal Control Officer. We highly value her opinion as she is working with dogs like Koda daily and if she vouches for someone, it’s for a reason. We spoke with Tim and right away knew that we liked him, but he wanted to be sure that KODA would like HIM. We set up a meeting and Tim came over for an hour to introduce himself to Koda and see how things went. She was initially wary, as she always is, but Tim’s warm nature and experience with difficult dogs showed immediately as Koda very quickly warmed up to him. His knowledge of dog behavior and confidence with reactive dogs made the whole meeting process go smoothly and we were ready to proceed. Tim was willing to watch Koda in his home as we felt like that would be the best option for her. He set up another meeting with us to make sure that that Koda would be receptive to staying at his house and would get along with his dog Rose. Upon arrival at his house, Koda immediately recognized him and leapt in his lap, licking his face! The weekend he watched her went off without a hitch and Tim sent update messages and pictures to keep our mind at ease. All in all, we HIGHLY recommend Tim to anyone needing a dog sitter, be it for a super friendly dog or for one with special requirements like ours. We are incredibly thankful to have found Tim and are thrilled to have found our new dog sitter for the future!
Mr. Smith is a great person to do business with. I have passed him some of my clients. He answers calls, keeps in touch and most importantly...loves your animals as much as you do. He truly goes above and beyond what your needs are. Great work sir I will be sending you more clients soon.
We first brought our 2 dogs in for daycare for a few weeks prior to boarding to get them used to the kennel and new people. I'm glad I found you guys and felt we made the right decision for the boys. I trust Markover over anyone to watch my dogs and have referred others to them. Everything was clean, spacious for doggies to run around and great staff and family that make things run smooth and put myself at ease. We will definitely be back!!
We brought our 7-year-old rescue to Markover for training. It was a wonderful experience. He now walks quietly at my side without lunging at others on the street. It was a pleasure to work with Joe, the trainer. He answered all my questions both before and after the training and was most patient as he trained ME!
We have gone to Markover 3-4 times with my baby Rosie. Today she had a spa date with Michelle the groomer, who is just marvelous with our little girl! I highly recommend this place!!♥️
No matter where I'm living, when I get another dog she will come to Markover for training. Joe did a phenomenal job teaching Nellie how to be the best pet and bird dog. Nellie was the WILDEST child with hints of loyalty, but a HUGE prey drive and therefore flight risk. I didn't want to send her to training for the fear of missing her too much but it ended up being the best decision ever. I get compliments on her obedience on almost every walk/run we take. If you're considering a board and train do it! Your dog will have a blast here. Nellie is always thrilled to be back at the preserve (and you know it's a good place when they encourage dogs on the couch - see photo attached)
We have a very shy dog, pitbull mix. She had only been in a kennel 3 other xs., but that kennel closed. When u have a shy, timid dog it's difficult to find a kennel that u feel confident in. Markover was the best choice! We brought her once for a grooming and she did great, even with hearing dogs barking. It's easy to tell if people are dog lovers, and the owner and staff are absolutely dog lovers! They let our dog come to them, and she actually did!! Dogs are very perspective, so this was a positive for us. If a dog doesn't eat, they cook chicken and rice to add to their food. They take them for walks, and when we came to pick her up, she was out for her ( morning walk ) with one of the staff. All this is explained to us prior to leaving her. And they gave us a report as to how she did. I can't say enough positive things about Mark over kennels, and would highly recommend them. Thank you again Dave and Sue
Boarded my lab Archie there in the spring for boarding and gundog training. Justin and the crew were awesome. Personalized communication, spotless facility and beautiful grounds. Five stars
Cady Falls Grooming at Markover Kennels If you are looking for a groomer that is not only excellent at listening to how you want your family pet groomed but most importantly cares for your pet like it was part of her own family - then Cathy is the right groomer for you. Our MalShi, Dusty, was never a happy camper when he sensed he was going in for a grooming, but all that changed with Cathy and we are thankful for that. We travel extensively, and we would have to take him to different groomers - but not after Cathy - Now we wait to get back to CT to take him to Cathy. Shr has been grooming Dusty for several years. She is also a breeder of award winning dogs and we think that training has helped to make her the caring groomer she is. The new facilities are spotless, and state of the art - so aside of knowing your dog is in good hands with Cathy - you and your dog are in a great facility. While I wish they would set up a second shop in Glastonbury, CT - For now, she and the new facility are worth the trip. Not sure their address is in this listing, so just in case - it is 699 Cook Hill Road, Danielson, CT
For boarding -Heated cement indoor/outdoor area but they provide raised hammock beds for the dogs. On site there is also grooming and training. One stop shopping which is wonderful. Really nice people.
We’ve locally boarded our German Shepherd, Luca, for several years with ZERO satisfaction from another kennel. After some research, my wife came across Markover Kennels that came with high reviews. Initially, we had Luca groomed at Markover back in May with Cathy. Luca responded very positively, where he looked happy and handsome! Most recently, we decided to board Luca at Markover Kennels for 8 days while on a family summer vacation….REMARKABLE! Justin and his staff gave Luca tons of attention and walks. Above all, the communication was second to none! Thank you, Justin and staff. WE WILL BE BACK! Sincerely, Scott + Amy
Committed team. The entire staff knew my puppy’s name when I dropped him off and he was happy, healthy and in a good mental state when i picked him him up. I’ll definitely board my pup here again, It’s worth the 80 mile drive each way to know my dog is happy and taken care off.
I was SO happy with my pups services! She looked SO cuuute & clean! She’s 4 months, her first grooming - so I’m sure it wasn’t easy, they did a great job & she seemed to have been so comfortable & happy with their team. I will definitely be using them for all their services again! Highly recommend!
Great people. They took care of my cat with no issues. Everyone was so friendly and inviting.
Thank you for taking care of Bellini for the last minute extented stay ! So nice to know we can depend on Morningstar !
The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. Maverick comes home nice and tired out and always eager to go.
As a fur momma to a young skittish rescue pup and a first time user of a kennel, I had a lot of questions and nervousness. Morning Star immediately put me at ease. They kindly answered all of my questions, explained their daily routine and assured me my dog would be well care for. Morning Star patiently helped her overcome the initial anxiety, then eased her into the social groups to play and make friends. After 8 days I returned to a very happy, groomed and tired-in-a-good-way pup! I would recommend Morning Star to anyone looking for a safe, loving, home environment for their dogs that will ease your mind while you are away.
Lily loves her time at the pet resort. Everyone is very caring and I have no concerns leaving her there when I am away and can't have her with me. They do a wonderful job grooming as well.
Hello, My dog stayed at Morning Star Farm for the second time this past August and the staff were great. The resort and farm are a wonderful place for a dog if your dog is the type that would like a farm and has a lot of energy. The fact that this may be the first review I have written in years should speak volumes. Don’t hesitate to book-you won’t regret it and the break from your dog is nice one in a while! In closing we were very pleased and will use Morning Star again in the future!
Absolutely wonderful staff my 3.5 month old puppy was a rockstar and she loved playing with everyone. I can’t say enough about the care she got
Stephanie did a great job introducing me to the facility and procedures. I have only left our pup there one day but I was pleased with everything. Bella a happy but tired pup when I picked her up.
Buxters recently took care of our two kitties (Pumpkin and Lola). Auntie Jay was amazing!!!! She followed all care instructions and even spent extra time with them each day to play. She also sent updates and photos every day. We can’t wait to use her again in the future.
Five stars for Buxter's Paw on all counts! Aunty Jay visited the house ahead of time and was totally prepared and professional with all plans and paperwork. Shy cat walked right up and made friends. While I was away, she sent daily pix and updates. She had both cats (who usually would be under the bed) out and interacting -- miraculous! When I returned, kitties were happy, and everything was neat as a pin. Aunty Jay even washed the food bowls for me, which was above and beyond. Excellent communication about the schedule. Most important: animals trust her. I recommend without reservation!
We couldn't be happier with Buxter's pet sitting service! Aunti J was absolutely amazing with our African Grey parrot, providing exceptional care and attention. Aunti J made us feel completely reassured and safe while we were traveling, knowing our feathered friend was in the best hands. We highly recommend her service and will definitely be using it again in the future!
I had an exceptional experience with Auntie Jay’s pet sitting service, especially with her expertise in birds. My ring neck parakeet, Kia, had a delightful time and even learned to say ‘peekaboo’ within two weeks! Auntie Jay’s patience and attentive care, including daily photo updates, made me feel like Kia was treated as part of her family. I am immensely grateful and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend her services to other pet owners!
Great work with my 2 dogs She when above n beyond for their care. She not only took care of them she also followed up with me to check of them n kept an open communication with me and help me with some off the allergies that I was dealing with them. N I made the change it n now there are find Luv her services
I feel so lucky to have found Aunty Jay pet sitting services, I felt at ease having my baby stay with her while I was away overseas, she took care of my pet just like if she was his owner! I’m very thankful for the great care she provided to my pet, She’s very caring, sweet and very knowledgeable ! She’s amazing ! I recommend her 100% ! ❤️
Aunty Jay is a delight to work with. My cats adore her. She gives me peace of mind whenever I'm out of town. Highly recommend. Very trustworthy.
I have been using her services now for several years. And in my 40 years of pet ownership I have never found anyone more trustworthy or reliable. She has watched my pets for weeks on end, at my home or at hers. She has been their walker. She has taken them to vet appointments. She was even there with me when one of them passed. I could not recommend her more highly.
Aunty Jay did a great job taking care of my free roam rabbit. She was extremely professional checking in on my rabbit while I was away and making sure I knew my pet was cared for! Highly recommend to pet parents who are looking for a pet sitter that will love their pet as their own!
Outstanding experience, easy communication, extremely professional, complete peace of mind while we were away. Would highly recommend Aunty Jay to anyone, she is fantastic!
Shelly and CatLover Pet Sitting have been watching my pets in my home for 8 years. She is reliable and has an amazing love of animals. Also, with her nursing background I know my pets have the best care and she has been able to provide specialty care for my older cats as needed. I would recommend her services to anyone who needed a pet care for in any fashion.
I must say that I feel such a sense of comfort when Catlover takes care of my pets. She has a medical background. She is kind and caring and her home is most welcoming. I cannot thank you enough.
She took great care of my puppy while I was gone too much for a job.
My dog, Smokey, is a frequent daycare flyer. He averages a visit about once a week. Smokey LOVES going to The Country Mutt. He becomes very excited to get to daycare as we get closer to the facility. After daycare, Smokey is exhausted and tuckered out. Michelle and her team are extremely knowledgeable and professional. They send home report cards and post highlight videos on Facebook that are always fun to watch. The facility is extremely well maintained. Smokey and I just finished their “Train & Drain” series for properly walking on a leash. With Michelle’s help, Smokey’s leash skills have improved drastically. We ❤️ The Country Mutt and highly recommend it!
We’ve been boarding at The Country Mutt for three years after being referred by a friend. I am very satisfied with the communication from Michelle and her staff. I love the fact that my pup is kept engaged, exercised and entertained throughout his stay. Highly recommend!
Fantastic clean facility with great staff. They care about the dogs and have a huge area to play unlike many daycare facilities we have boarded our dogs. Owner Michelle is great and the pups report cards were great. Looking forward to booking our family's next vacation and leaving our pups with The Country Mutt. P. S. They came back exhausted and happy. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Thanks!
We're so happy that we found The Country Mutt. Our dog loves being there; he's really social and likes nothing better than running around outside with his pals (and, of course, lounging in the wading pool!). We bring him there for both daycare and boarding, and know that he's getting wonderful care and is having a great time. There are a lot of good kennels closer to us, but I'm willing to drive an hour and ten minutes round trip so our dog can go to The Country Mutt. Michelle is the best - she sets a high bar when it comes to the dogs' welfare and overall safety, and I'm so grateful for the TLC he gets when he's there.
Michelle, Alex and staff are absolutely amazing, best in the business in my opinion! We always feel comfortable when we board with them, there are never any concerns about safety or care that is being provided. The farm hangover after a full day of playing is a huge plus as well! We have been going to Michelle since almost the beginning of her business and have never considered going anywhere else--Michelle is the dog whisperer 😊 I highly recommend The Country Mutt Llc for daycare and boarding.
During COVID, my wife and I decided to get our first dog – Tennessee Whiskey. Neither of us have had a dog before, and we were woefully unprepared. Luckily, we found Michelle at Country Mutt. In the past few years, Michelle has helped us with all aspects of care and training of our dog. Michelle helped us with crate training, behavior adjustments, and with the gentle leader. We regularly use the daily enrichment program and appreciate that Tennessee Whiskey has a huge play area and within a well-controlled play group. Tennessee Whiskey comes home happy and ‘dog-tired’. We use the boarding, and as our dog is familiar with the facilities and staff it makes the whole experience much less stressful for owners and dog. We cannot recommend Country Mutt enough.
Michelle and the whole staff at The County Mutt are amazing , caring , well educated and overall just a wonderful place to leave my dog for the day !!!! The play area is clean and well staffed to keep all the dogs safe . My Waffle loves going there and I’m so comfortable leaving Waffle there , I would highly recommend this wonderful establishment to anyone looking for doggie daycare
PAWSOME!!! We boarded our two dogs with The Country Mutt for 15 days this summer. I swear when we went to pick them up they were sad to leave. What an amazing and enriching adventure they had. Lots of playtime, enrichment activities, farm walks and exercise. Michelle, George,Crystal and the whole staff at The Country Mutt all made our puppers feel at home and loved. I cannot say enough about the care and attention that they provided. Just knowing they were so well looked after made our vacation that much more enjoyable. Five stars is not enough! Wish there were more stars to give! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am admittedly, a nervous mom of a 7 month old St. Bernard. He is my pride and joy. Michelle at Country Mutt made me and Hank feel at home and welcome. Hank has met many new friends and has had wonderful experiences with the staff at Country Mutt! Not only do I recommend them but I consider them family when they love and treat my Hank with so much love and care
Kelsey & Jackson have been going to The Country Mutt since they were pups, so for several years now. I can truly say that taking them to The Farm once/wk for doggie daycare has been one of the best things I've done for them. As we drive up the road approaching The Farm, K&J get excited; they really do seem to know that they're going to their favorite place, to spend time with their pup friends, as well as some of their favorite human friends, as The Mutt team is fabulous! Truly fabulous! Michelle, Crystal, George & Alex really care about all of the dogs under their watch. The feeling is genuine...These people are genuine!! The team is invested in providing a safe, clean, caring and enriching environment; they're not babysitting, as I'm guessing is the case @ many daycares. If I could give 10++++++ stars? I seriously would do so as I cannot thank Michelle and team enough for what they have done for Kelsey & Jackson, as well as for me! Love you guys!!!
Steph is the best! I trust her 100% with my fury little guy. All ears is reliable and the prices are very reasonable. I have continued to use All Ears services and will continue to refer them to anyone in need of a walker/sitter in the area. I strongly value trusting that my dog is in good hands when I need someone to help me with a walk, or if I am out of town for work.
Steph is the BEST. We worked with her for about four years and couldn't have asked for a better dog walker.
Steph is amazing!!! Extremely kind to people and dogs. Highly recommend!!!!
I can't say enough about the care my cat Jack received while I was away for a week. Lynn is the best, and she really cares! Love this place and I highly recommend!
If you are looking for an immaculate home away from home for your pets, this is it ! Lynn in an amazing person who loves what she does and loves your pets as her own. I never worry about my pets when I am away. Everything is so clean. The kennel floors are radiant heat as well. She also looks after rabbits and guinea pigs ! 1000% recommend!
We went for a meet and greet with our cooper today and was so amazed at how clean and organized it is. We can't wait to be able to go away and not have to worry about bringing our dog here. Lynn was great to talk to and we're thankful that she's there 24/7.
Pettery Paradise was recommended to me by a family member who has boarded their dogs here before. My two huskies have stayed here several times (ranging from a long weekend to about two weeks), and every time has been completely worry free. Lynn and her staff are very organized and thorough, and truly make you and your pets feel comfortable. It's like magic how well my hyper huskies listen and behave when they stay here! You can really tell all of the staff is passionate about caring for animals. The prices are very reasonable, comparable to most other big commercialized kennels. I love that this kennel is on private property, so there's almost always someone around, and the facility is very organized and CLEAN! There are heated floors and solid walls to separate each kennel while the dogs are not supervised. The dogs can be kept separate or brought into one of the large fenced play areas while outside. Lynn even keeps peanut butter filled Kong treats on hand for play time! I can't say enough great things about Pettery Paradise and I would highly recommend this kennel to everyone looking for pet boarding or daycare!
This is the BEST kennel I have ever used! Lynn is wonderful and really cares for her pets. I won’t leave my dog anywhere else but with her! My dog comes home happy and well cared for!
My dog little Yorkie Natasha has been there many times. She has stayed for several days to weeks as needed. She loves Lynn and loves to go there. I hate leaving my dog but I don't worry when she is there.
I love this place! The owner Lynn takes so well care of our dog Zelda and Zelda is always looking very happy in the photos! I would recommend this place to anyone who is needing someone to watch their dogs!
Lynn has been taking care of my dogs for years . They are always well cared for and happy.
Highly recommended. Lyn and her Husband are great
Clean, professional, personable, and they really care about your dogs.
Pennie’s Homestead is an absolute gem! They took great care of our dog Luke Skybarker while we went on our honeymoon for 10 days. He was pampered the entire time and communication daily was greatly appreciated. You can tell that Pennie cares about animals and that she went above and beyond to take care of my family member while I was gone. We will definitely contact her in the future if we need Luke to be taken care of. As mentioned in another review for Pennie, your dog will be at a resort while in Pennies care.
We could not be happier with the care that our cat and African grey parrot received. We were rather last minute looking for pet care and Pennie made everything work out for us. We would highly recommend Pennie and her staff for home pet care. We will definitely use their services again.
Pennie and Michele were great! Michele took excellent care of my senior Chihuahua as well as my home while I was away. I came home to a perfectly clean home and a happy doggie. I knew she was in good hands, with frequent communications and pictures sent my way. I will be sure to use them again for my next trip! Thanks for everything.
Pennie's Homestead is THE most WONDERFUL pet sitter service EVER!!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job and her furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. Our rescue, Dolly, was definitely not a candidate for kennel boarding due to her separation anxiety and we were so hesitant to schedule a vacation away. And then we had the good fortune to meet Pennie!! She instantly bonded with Dolly and we knew we could enjoy our trip knowing Dolly would be given the best of care and would be safe at home. There is a thorough interview before she takes the job and everything is covered to ensure the best quality care will be given to your pet(s) and I ASSURE YOU you it is given. We were sent daily updates and happy photos by text which was such a comfort and so appreciated. Not only was Dolly given the best of care, but also the house was in pristine condition when we got home. All I can say is WOW, we are so totally impressed! I need never look for any other pet sitter ever again as we have truly found the VERY BEST!!!! ***** Five Stars Plus … :)
Penny went above and beyond for our two dogs i would recommend her to anyone . We got updates and pictures everyday definitely will use her again !!
Pennie is a very professional and trustworthy petsitter. We were away for a week and received daily photos and updates on the dogs, and my house was well cared for upon return. She loves her job and it shows!
If you think you're leaving your dog behind with a "pet sitter" while you have a fantastic vacation - you are most mistaken! Your vacation may be OK or good, but it's not going to compare to the vacation your four-legged family member will have! Pennie is like an animal whisperer. Her own dogs and cats are incredible hosts. And, you can stay in a 5-star resort on your vacation - but your pet is going to have it even better! Gorgeous farm with acres if not miles to run and play with his/her new hosts, pond for swimming, swimming pool for chilling, steak for dinner (yes, I'm not kidding!) and more love than you could ever hope. We're spoiled. We don't live anywhere close to Stonington/Mystic CT and we're already trying to find a way to get Beau back to Pennie's Homestead the next time we have to take a trip. Just know, you'll be jealous of your dog when your trip is over.
Pennie is a fantastic dog sitter! She (and her adorable sidekick Granger) connected with our dog instantly and he had the best time with her. We got regular photos and updates of how happy our dog was, and he loved being outside and playing with other friendly dogs every day! We can’t wait to have him stay with Pennie again!
Pennie was recommended by our vet. Our 20 year old cat is hard to leave because she is fussy! If she does not eat or drink water,her health can tank quickly as she is only 6 lbs. We used Pennie on 2 occasions now,and we could not be more delighted!!! Attentive,reliable and compassionate. She cared for our kitty and sent pictures of her eating and drinking. Our cat LOVES her. She is highly recommended!
Pennie (and her dog Grainger) are the best. We planned a last minute trip and Pennie changed her schedule to accommodate us. Our dog Buoy had a blast and came home exhausted from racing around with Grainger! Best of all, I slept well knowing Buoy was in safe hands. They’re the best.
