Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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
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
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!

Courtenay
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
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
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.

Christina
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Natalie
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Alaina
Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.
Patti
Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa! We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best! First, communication was fabulous from the start. They put me at ease before they ever got here. Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures. They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world). They handled her medications with no problem. It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them! I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!
Monika
Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them. Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him. He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here. So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation. Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.

First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.
Anne
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!
Linda
Christina handled Bridie's first-ever time without us perfectly. We returned after 5 days to a happy, well-cared for and well-exercised pup --- and an emaculate house. Christina knows dogs and helped us with a few Bridie issues. We got photos and some updates while away. She was flexible and very sensitive to all of our needs. Chrisrina is the best sitter that we have ever had.
Christopher
As ever, Charlie was the perfect dog/house sitter - took loving care of our dog and looked after the house and garden as if they were her own; all returned in immaculate conditon!
Paula
Lori and Joe took great care of our two dogs and tow cats while we were gone. Our plans changed and we actually asked if they could come a day before we had originally planned to leave and they said no problem! They even stayed over on the night we got home so that we could meet them which was very nice! Lori was very good with communication before the house sit and also during the time they were here. She let us they had arrived safely and then sent us a short text or pictures every day of the animals. The house looked cleaner than when we left it when we got home! Lori and Joe were great house sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

I was returning to this family operation for a second time, I felt I should say why. The place is calm, clean and I know the dogs caretakers because I met them! The Mom of this “Mom and Pop” is just charming, btw, and Pop and Teen Daughter are great too. They are flexible and have several levels of accommodation should you want/need extra TLC for your pet. The welcome questions. But fair warning book ahead to extent you can, they stay fully occupied- I guess the secret is out about the gem. Oh,,, and go figure they are reasonable cost wise too! Bruno was cared for so well, when I returned he wasn’t quite sure he wanted to leave, ok, that’s an exaggeration but he was so happy I knew he had a good stay.
We recently left our 2.5 year old dog while we went camping for 4 days. It was the first time we had left him in the 2 years we have had him. Hickory hills was very accommodating and made both us and our pup feel comfortable during our time apart. We originally had some guilt leaving our dog in a kennel when we are used to being active with him every day, but we would use Hickory Hill again without a doubt.
We have been using for a few years now for weeks at a time and have never had bad experience, very reasonable on their prices with multiple options for your dog or cat. Kennels and surrounding areas always kept clean. Couldn't ask for a better place for you pets.
My Charlie loves to go here. They are wonderful and loving to the pets. Even with anxiety, Charlie just walks away to get to his temp home happy.
Unfortunately I cannot recommend Hickory Hill, although they did come highly recommended to us by two separate people. Our lab came home with a significant skin infection on his face which required shaving, steroids, 21 days of antibiotics, a topical soap, and a cream. This is a dog who has never had a skin issue and whose coat and skin were fine when we dropped him off. Upon arrival home after a 6 day board with our other dog, we noticed right away he had an issue. Initially we thought it was a simple hot spot, however our vet shaved his head, face, and neck which revealed the extent. I received a text message a few days into their stay letting me know that they were both doing well. No mention of any skin issue at that time, nor when they were picked up to go home. When I inquired about whether the staff had noticed any issues, I was informed that they did notice his skin was less than “pristine” however gave me no timeline for when this occurred. I have been asked to chalk it up to the bad weather that occurred during their stay including heat and humidity- although I was also assured they had air conditioning, so I’m not sure which to believe. For a total of nearly $1,000 -$735 for boarding, plus $250 in vet bills (so far), and not to mention the healing process for our dog- I do not feel comfortable recommending their services at this time.
We always trust the folks at Hickory Hill to take great care of our three pups. We love that they can all be together while we are away with a discounted rate for additional dogs in the same kennel. They’ve walked our very difficult dog who pulls a lot and didn’t complain one bit. I’ve always been anxious about my pups when I travel, but now I don’t worry because I know they’re in great hands in a very secure facility. The staff here also couldn’t be nicer!
Actually we use the grooming services here which are wonderful. Shauna the groomer is as sweet and kind as ever and our pups are happy to go see her! It’s clean and comfortable! As far as the kennel the current owners are very welcoming and have done lots of improvements and it just feels warmer and friendlier than ever!
Love the owners. Very well kept and neat. All dogs are wonderful.
We were so worried about our 6 year old, rescue, reactive, Red Heeler/Cattle Dog, Auggie. In the 4 years he’s been with Elizabeth and me, although very loving with us, he has been extremely protective when around other people. Stu, Noreen, and staff members did a fantastic job with him, including taking him for walks, with no incidents. It is a well run facility, reasonable prices, and very nice people. Auggie seems quite content and happy. We’ll be back!
Strongly recommend you leaving your dog here, that is if you love your dog very much. The owners have such amazing attention to detail and truly care about your dog having a good time as much as you do. They offer many additional services, like 2-mile dog walks, play times, and many more. They do such an amazing job with grooming as well and take great pride in what they do. They have years of experience with any type of dog and can really go above and beyond to take care of even the most difficult of dogs. I was also able to get my dog groomed while I was away and he looked absolutely fabulous when I came to pick him up. My dog loves the place so much, he didn't even want to leave!! such an Absolutely amazing place, and you would be silly to go anywhere else to leave your dogs. I strongly recommend them to anyone who loves their dogs and want to feel safe and assured that their dogs will be taken care with love and care that can only come from the best. Hickory Hill Kennel is by far the best dog kennel in Western Massachusetts. My dog looks forward towards going there as much as I look forward towards going on my vacations!!! Their attention to you and your dog is astounding.

When I was planning to adopt a dog, I knew I needed a sitter because I travel frequently. Lynne's Luv-A-Pup Petsitting was the perfect answer. Lily, my beloved Yorkie, stays with Lynne when I'm away and I'm 100% confident that she's getting great care. I highly recommend Luv-A-Pup and so does Lily who's always happy and healthy when I come to pick her up. Five Stars!
Lynne has been our dog walker for as long as we have had our rescue dog, Prince Hairy. When we were working, she would take him out for long walks a few times a week. Now that we are retired, she is available for overnights in her dog friendly home. Prince Hairy came to us at approximately 1.5 years of age. He was very anxious and insecure. She worked with him intensely to gain his trust. That was more than 11 years ago. She is reliable and observant. She has pointed out concerns that we were not aware of. Most importantly, we leave with total trust that he is in good hands.
Lynne is a wonderful, caring sitter. The animals love her. We had to leave our dog for a few days soon after we got her, and Lynne’s calm energy (and Tiny) helped her feel right at home. Even the cat likes getting his medicine when she gives it to him. Highly recommend her!
Lynne is very flexible with scheduling and a wonderful home based dog boarding experience. Lynne takes my dog on hikes with her dog and my dog comes home happy and calm! Highly recommend Lynne’s care!
Luv-a-Pet couldn't be a better title for Lynne and her service. She has cared for our dog, Sachi, for going on 3 years and has been fabulous. Her little dog, Tiny, is a bonus and fun for Sachi to hang out with. Lynne walks the dogs she cares for and plays with them. This past year Sachi had surgery and was ill this spring. We had a weekend trip scheduled and Lynne took care of Sachi - she is the only person we would trust Sachi with under the circumstances. She even took her to the vet while we were gone. Couldn't ask for a more caring and concerned pet-sitter. Highly recommend!!!!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Lynne and the care she has given to my dog Rosie, and now our newer dog. From weekly walks to overnite stays I always have peace of mind that my dogs are safe and having way more fun with Lynne than if with me. Highly recommend!!
Lynne does a great job!

My little Lucia loves it there. Not only does she get to see her friends, but she participates in all of the great and creative activities that Happy Tails offers (who knew there was a national whip cream day?). I am forever. Grateful for their support and creating happy happy dogs.
My Ollie loves going to daycare on Mondays and goes to the Happy Campers enrichment camp on Wednesdays. I work from home but he has a lot of energy and I just don't have the time to give to him while working. He always comes home happy and tired after his classes and I love that they send me updates on what he is working on and pictures and sometimes cute art projects. I don't know what I would do without them. They are lifesavers and I know without a doubt that he is in good care and I don't have to worry. Thanks to all of you and especially Rachael for providing this amazing doggie daycare and day camp!!!!!
When I leave my dog at Happy Tails I not only know she will have fun, I also know that she will be safe. Everything about Happy Tails is built out of love for the dogs and you can see that! It is an extremely clean environment and the staff is extremely knowledgeable.
Happy Tails is such an amazing concept and so well executed. My dogs love going to play with their friends! The space is clean and their process for pick-up is organized. I also love their cute photos and event days. I think their pricing is reasonable and they are easy to communicate with. I will be sending my ladies there for a long time.
Dior loves going to Happy Tails Greenfield. She was a bit nervous her first few times, but she loves her new friends and all the staff that has become like Dior's family. They take such great care of her and we love how they post pictures of her every time she is at Happy Tails. We cannot say enough great things about Happy Tails and we cannot thank them enough for taking amazing care of Dior.
Happy Tails , This place is the best! They are so friendly, and they truly love your dog! They pay attention to all of the important details. When you walk in the door, they are excited to see you and they know exactly who you are picking up to take home from the daycare. I love going to camp I get to see my friends . I also love all the humans. I love Rachael
Max loves Happy Tails!! Everyone who works there is awesome! Thanks Rachael and the staff for taking care of Max and all the dogs that come here.
Two generations of our dogs have loved Happy Tails! They come home happily exhausted and are always so thrilled to go. The staff is wonderful and super knowledgeable about dog behavior.
Our dog makes this hysterical noise when we're in the car and she knows we're on our way to Happy Tails. It's like this crazy chittering squirrel noise that I've never heard her make under any other circumstances. It's clearly her "I am so excited I am going to absolutely lose my mind" noise. And Happy Tails is the MOST exciting thing. She loves her dog and human friends there so much. When she comes home, she doesn't make a peep, because she's so content and worn out and sleepy. Cannot possibly recommend them highly enough!
My shih tzu Mookie has been going to Happy Tails since 2020. Every Monday morning he wakes me up and waits to be told that it's "Daycare day!" He gets so excited to go he tries to skip breakfast and potty time and waits by the front door to leave. He knows the route we take to drive there, and his whines of excitement get louder the closer we get. When we arrive, he runs right in to see his friends and never looks back. He always comes home happy and tired. All of the staff that I've interacted with at Happy Tails have been amazing. He wags his tail and is excited to see them no matter who is greeting us at the door. The themed days they put on like spirit week and dressing the dogs up for Halloween are always fun. I have absolutely no reservations leaving my dog in their hands and highly recommend them!
