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.

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!
Brian is absolutely amazing. This was his third time sitting for us and the dogs love him, he left the house immaculate, and is totally reliable and communicative. We can’t imagine a better sitter and hope he’ll come visit and stay in touch now that he has moved to the area.
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.
Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!
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.
Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.
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!
Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!
Cannot say enough good things about Charli and Jeff, a delightful couple who took great care of both dog and house. Loved their enthusiasm and attention to details. They are full time traveling pet/house sitters and it shows. They are organized, punctual, extremely tidy and completely self-sufficient. Charli, Jeff, it was a true pleasure to meet you both and you are welcome back any time your future travels bring you to the Charleston area. Warm hugs from myself and Forest.
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!

Sarah is amazing! She treats each animal like a member of the family and takes some great photos of them as well!
I have used this salon for several years and always satisfied. However the true caring and compass for my Gwynne. She is in mid state of alopecia and they were so helpful in helping decide which cut was best. Thank you!!
I’ve been bringing my princess to this place lately, and I’m really impressed with the way they take care of the pups. The staff is friendly and warm. Coco seems to like it here and doesn’t experience the anxiety she had at her previous place. Coco is a Labradoodle, so she definitely needs a good groomer, and Ms. D is amazing. She does such a great job, taking extra time and care to make Coco look clean and pretty. Thank you, Best Friends!
Love best friends Ashland! They are so good to our girl Hazel, she always has a blast at doggy playgroup and when she is groomed, she looks and smells so good. I would highly recommend.
Absolutely love Best Friends Hotel of Ashland, MA. Peter Pretzel loves attending day camp and his occasional overnights! All the staff are amazing.
Millie’s first groom was a great success! The love and care that was shown to her was obvious by her demeanor when I picked her up. Now a happy and clean-smelling puppy!!
So, my pup Maggie has been going to Best Friends for awhile now (since 2021? 2022?). We've had ups. We had downs. Management changeover, new employees, etc. At the moment, we're back up now. Alfredo and team have come together and things are consistent again. Stephanie is our preferred groomer, and Maggie adores her.
I have been bringing my dog here for years to be groomed. Stephanie is the absolute best. She’s kind and does an amazing job on my dog. He always comes out looking great.
We’ve had such a great experience at Best Friends! Our dog Bella loves the puppy play group and we also use them for grooming and boarding. The staff are wonderful and we know that Bella will be well taken care of when there. She’s always so excited when we arrive!
Chance had a grooming and he looks and feels awesome!! Super good job!
Best Friends takes such good care of my Rocky and Penny 💖 I don’t trust anyone else. Great and caring staff. …
Alice takes care of my dog Winn every week while I'm at work. She's responsive and readily available when I need daycare. Winn loves it there because they treat him like family and he loves playing in their big backyard. He's made great friends with Max and the other dogs Alice cares for. His time there has helped him improve his socialization with other dogs as well.
Great doggy daycare/boarding. Nice yard for the dogs to run around, plus beautiful streets and trails close by for walks. A friendly dog in the house to keep my dog company and active. Good communication and very flexible. Would recommend.
Alice is an excellent dog sitter. She is very responsive and always sends pictures of our dog while he is staying with her. She has a great fenced in back yard. We know we can leave our dog and he will be happy and well taken care off.
Attentive care! My dog was well cared during my absence, and in a home environment. I will definitely book with Lucky Pups again for my next vacation.
My pup had the time of his life!!!
I’ve been bringing my fur baby to Skipton for 9 years. I can’t imagine bringing him anywhere else. He absolutely LOVES going, so whenever l leave him there, I have complete peace of mind. In my opinion, that is PRICELESS. Prior to COVID, he went 5 days a week and boarded when I went away for vacation or business. Even though I work from home now, I still bring him once or twice a week so he can engage with the other dogs. I appreciate the staff at Skipton truly wants to “get to know” all the dogs prior to allowing them to board. They are not just looking to make money by booking dogs to board that they don’t know or haven’t boarded or been in daycare in years. They are choosing what is best for the dogs over making money. I commend them for that. The staff is absolutely amazing. They regularly send me photos throughout the day and have even grilled steak for him. (Apparently, he wasn’t in the mood for the grilled chicken I sent). I’ve recommended Skipton to all my friends with smaller dogs and we all agree. You can’t find a better place around to trust your fur baby with.
I simply cannot express how happy I am with the care my babies receive at skipton pet lodge. It is truly and amazing space for the doggies to be. Amanda and Jacob do an amazing job with providing updates and beautiful pictures. The owner is also very hands on and involved with the care of the dogs and it’s very refreshing to see the level of commitment she has towards our fur babies. Everyone is very responsive, kind and engaging. My dogs run to daycare - something that has never happened at any other daycares we have been to. I have complete peace of mind when they are at Skipton! Cannot say enough positive things!
I really can’t say enough good things about Skipton! I’ve been taking my boy here for about 3 years now. I’d be lost without this place. He is on the sensitive side, but he acts like Skipton is his second home. He adores all the staff, and they are fantastic with him. It’s so obvious everyone at Skipton cares deeply about each dog that comes through their doors. They carefully select the dogs they take, which I am very appreciative of. They foster a safe and friendly environment, and I never have to worry when I leave him there. The home style facility is an amazing fit for us, and the staff sends adorable photos throughout the day. Many thanks to all the staff, you all are wonderful!
My little Bruce absolutely loves going to Skipton!! We’ve been using the Pet Lodge for Boarding for a while now whenever we’re going on a trip. Staff are so nice, super responsive and never fail to send plenty of pictures. I’m always sure my pet is happy and receiving the best care when he’s at Skipton 💕 …
Skipton Pet Lodge is the best! My dog doesn't do well in a cage and that's one of the reasons why Skipton is the perfect place. The dogs can go outside, hang out in the inside lodge area or take a nap if they want, and they are supervised at all times. The owner and employees are awesome, and they love dogs as much as I do. I won't take my dog anywhere else because I know he is safe, happy and cared for at Skipton. Thanks for all you do!
I have been going to Skipton for a few years now, and I absolutely love it there and Stacy the owner! My dog is always so excited to go in, and gets so excited when he sees her (or any staff member). He has boarded there too, and I love that he gets to sleep in bed with whomever is there! I also feel more comfortable that she only allows day care dogs to board. It helps me know that he will get along with everyone there! HIGHLY recommend them! Keep up the great work!
Waited 2 weeks to get my puppy in for a "trial day." Yes, she's shy and a little scared of other dogs, so she was cowering. FIVE MINUTES later I got a call to come and get her. Stacy tells me, "Well, I can keep her for a bit, but I don't want to traumatize her." Basically, her chance is over, come back and get her. I used to bring my old dog here a few years ago and we loved it. Not sure if there are new owners, but it's changed. Not friendly.
I called Stacey the owner a couple weeks ago asking about the possibility of boarding my dogs in July while we are away in Greece for almost 3 weeks. I told her we may have family coming to stay at our house while we are away so it’s still up in the air. I wanted to provide the dates just to cover all my basis and not have to worry about them being booked and she assured me it will be fine if I just call within the next couple weeks. She didn’t even want to hear the dates!! Couple weeks later (today) I call and say we still don’t know for sure if they are coming but at this point I’m not counting on it and to book the given dates. Stacey now tells me she can only accommodate a few of the days out of the almost 3 weeks because they are booked. I said you assured me I’d be fine in July if I just called back and her response is “it’s been booked” She also told me she only boards dogs that go to daycare there…my dogs have been going to daycare there for years. They aren’t regulars anymore like they were before Stacey took over because my husband now works from home and it’s not needed. I will be writing reviews like this on all her platforms. Very unprofessional. I know many families that take their dogs to Skipton but I’ll let them know how you’ve handled this situation..just in case they don’t read this review!
I really don’t love leaving my dog anywhere, but this place puts my heart at ease. Joanne is fabulous, she will text you pictures and updates on how your pooch is doing. Gus is happy and exhausted at the end of the day when I pick him up on my work travel days. I know pups that sleep over and they have the option to sleep on beds and couches or be crates if that is their normal preference. We just had Gus groomed there for the first time and OMG he looks beautiful and is so so soft. It’s the best grooming of his life.
My dog has a ton of energy so I have been taking him to daycare here for a few months now and it’s been amazing! He is so much calmer at home now and has a great time hanging out with his friends all day! He comes home tired and happy! This is such a great place.
2 years ago we welcomed a new dog into our family. Since then It has been more work than I had planned. Due to our work schedule we needed someone to take Waggs for a walk once to twice a day and some occasional pet sitting. Through a family recommendation we hired Shivaun Pryor. She has been wonderful over the past 2 years. She is always on time for her walks and is a wonderful person and take care and has a love for Waggs!
Shivaun has taken care of our dogs and cats for over 15 years. We have never looked elsewhere because of her reliability, service, and reasonable fees. She has done daily dog walks during the weeks through the lives of two boxers and cared for dogs and cats while we have been gone on vacation or visiting family. Whenever we had emergency travel she would step up and do whatever we needed. I have never had a concern with her in our house or taking care of our pets. In addition to pet care, she has run errands for us when needed, picked up or dropped off packages, etc. She has done house cleaning for us and we have always been happy with the results. Finding someone as reliable as Shivaun has certainly made our life easier and I highly recommend her services to you.
Shivaun has been been pet sitting for my cats, multiple times a year, for over 8 years. She also waters the plants and brings in the mail. We never had any issues. She is very responsible and responsive. She even takes pictures of our cats, and send them to us, when we are on long vacations (she knows we miss them), and we really appreciate that gesture.
Shivaun is great and extremely reliable. I have two dogs, an 80 lb shephard mix and a 50 lb hound mix. She walks each separately twice a week. She always checks ahead to confirm if I want her to come on holidays.
Shivaun has been walking my Sheltie for many years. She is extremely reliable, flexible and trustworthy. I would recommend her for your dog walking needs.
Your pet deserves only the very the best. And that is most certainly Pupchella! Cassidy and her staff check all the boxes. From my very first conversation with Cassidy I knew she was a true professional and a pack leader at heart. She is beyond knowledgeable and very serious about her business taking great pride in what she does. EVERY client is treated warm and lovingly. She takes the time to meet EVERY client personally, placing and scheduling them accordingly for best fit. Whether it's socialization and exercise through group, personal solo walks or special overnight stays, her clients get the very best care, attention, love and quickly feel part of the Pupchella family. My Aussie, Finn, jumps right in the car with "Auntie Cas" and never even looks back. People ask if I have a hard time letting him go. Those that know me would assume YES, but not with Cassidy. I have zero worries or hesitations. He's with the best and having the best time. He's one happy pupper at Pupchella.
My family has been a Pupchella client for over 3 years. My dog Brody LOVES playgroup and jumps at the chance to spend time boarding with Cassidy. At this point, Cassidy is more like family to us! We are beyond lucky to have found her and her amazing staff. Everyone at Pupchella truly cares for each dog and they consistently go above and beyond (ie. cleaning up a boxes of shredded tissues, being on call to pick up my dog when I went into labor to have my daughter and countless of other situations). Cassidy has built her small business on a solid foundation of quality care, consistency and clear communication all backed by years of experience. There's no one else I trust to care for my fur baby!
I wanted to share my experience with this company to caution others who might consider using their services. I urge you to read this entire review. You will be glad you did. Below are the reasons why Pupchella (Cassidy/Owner) does not deserve our business and perhaps yours... 1. Mysterious Facilities- Safety- Business Model: You cannot visit the facility where your dog is for playgroup as she rents out fenced-in yards from private residences. This should be a major red flag, one that I ignored. I did not think much of this until our dog escaped from playgroup, and we received a phone call he was found in another location. The woman who reached out to us did not work for Pupchella, and luckily she called my husband and brought him home to us. Pupchella did not contact us when this happened. Instead, my husband contacted Cassidy (owner) to alert her the dog was brought home by a total stranger. We are so grateful to that kind soul. Pupchella employees take lots of photos of your dog having a great time. Who doesn’t like to see pictures of their dog having a good time? I did. I loved it until I realized the impact it had on my dog’s safety. I was told there would be no more than 8-10 dogs at the playgroup. Cassidy had a slip of the tongue and told me one day there were 15 dogs. An increased number of dogs, excessive photo-taking, and facilities you cannot visit are not secure. What else don’t I know? 2. Vaccines: I was not asked to submit any vaccination records to Pupchella. My dog was adopted from a neighborhood shelter and approximately two weeks later, our dog was diagnosed with kennel cough. Vet said it was likely lingering due to life at the shelter. He had to stay out of the playgroup because it is highly contagious. I question how many of Cassidy’s clients know that their dog was in the presence of a dog that had kennel cough... 3. Security System- Lack of Competency: Cassidy’s team could not figure out how to use our Ring security system. It is pretty intuitive, to be honest. Detailed messages were provided, and I physically showed her employees how to use it on the days I worked remotely. They were also shown how to work the system on our “meet and greet day.” The alarm system was frequently set off, and we were disrupted at work, time and time again. The employees often left the house unarmed at the end of their visit. 4. Payment Options: Cassidy offers a few different payment options; cash, check, and PayPal. We paid Cassidy using PayPal. When we did this, we were told not to click goods and services but friends and family. She told us she would receive a fee. I had never used PayPal before and was unaware that WE would be charged a fee when paying her business. Pupchella IS A COMPANY and provides a SERVICE. Cassidy’s company should be charged, not the customer. When we went to write Cassidy a check, using the address listed in the invoice, we were told the address was not correct. Her payment options are limited for a reason... 5. Cassidy lacks empathy and is disingenuous. Cassidy speaks poorly of her clients. When my dog escaped from playgroup, she told me she yelled at her employees, saying they were lucky it was our family/dog that escaped instead of rich Sudbury snobs, etc. We have video footage of Cassidy telling her employee to “honestly, disregard everything they say because they are annoying” caught by our Ring security system. “They” being my husband and I. Cassidy fooled me. Little did I know how little she thought of my husband and I and her other clients. I hope you find this information useful when choosing a company to care for your beloved pet.
Cassidy and the whole Pupchella team are unbelievable! Cassidy for one has been taking care of my dog since I adopted her in 2014. I have no idea what I would do without her and her services. I have used walking, playgroup and overnights - sometimes even last minute! I never have to worry about Audrey - I know she's in the best hands!
Cassidy is wonderful! She has been walking our dogs and puppy sitting for us for the past 6 months. She is always reliable and responsive, often able to help us at the last minute when needed. The dogs absolutely love her. She often brings over a puppy often friend for them to play with, which helps wear them out! She post pictures to Twitter, so we get to see what our pups are up to during the day. We couldn't be happier with her services and recommend her highly.
Hi, I wrote a review about seven months ago and I did not have the correct information. I have tried to remove the review; however, have failed. My dog was well taken care of while I used Pupchella. I do think there were times of miscommunication; however, it was resolved. Overall, I would recommend their services and any dog would be lucky.
Cassidy is phenomenal! I trust her whole heartily with my dogs. When they come home they’re always happy and especially tired!! She does a great job at what she does. 10/10 would recommend any day of the week!
I wish I could give 10 stars because that’s how much I love Cassidy, Taylor and the entire Pupchella crew! They take such good care of Bear! He LOVES going to playgroups and the all day adventures! I also have to be away for work some weeks and it gives me such peace of mind knowing he is having fun and well looked after. I can’t recommend Pupchella highly enough!! I am incredibly grateful.💖
I found Cassidy online back in March when I was looking for someone to take care of our Lola while we were away. I interviewed her and thought she was awesome! After the interview, Cassidy provided me with three references who were all wonderful and had been working with her a while! We then hired Cassidy for the first time to care for Lola every day for the week we were away. We got daily great texts updating us on Lola and when we got home Lola was very excited whenever I said the name Cassidy! Since vacation Cassidy has been very flexible, filling in whenever we need her for quick trips and/or just an awesome walk when Lola is home too long if we are working! We are very lucky to have found Cassidy.
My experience in the beginning of Pupchella was positive; however, my experience slowly declined after being with them for a year. The dog walkers are constantly changing and as someone that works in a small business if there is a high rotation of staff than I do think that it could be related to leadership. The owner herself is not good with communication. She also forgot to walk my dog on one occasion and did not offer any type of resolution (i.e. additional walk that week, discount, credit towards the next walk). I have decided to move in a different direction for a dog walker and when I attempted to get an address to send my last check too (because the dog walker forgot to take it with her) there has been radio silence in terms of how I can pay my last invoice. I wish the company the best in the future and hopefully this review allows reflection on the part of the owner of the business and illicit change for future customers.
We absolutely love WDYD! They are so friendly and provide such excellent care to the pups in their care. We recently moved closer, and are so excited about being on a weekly schedule with them. In our experience with other local daycares, we have found WDYD to be much friendlier, caring, and genuine. I eagerly recommend this business to anyone looking!! Thank you, Cindy and team, we are so grateful! (Pic of a zonked pup after a great day of playing :) )
They took my Frenchie Bogey last minute after a messy hike on a hot morning. Not only did they do an amazing job with his grooming, but they even managed to freshen up his breath. Highly recommend! Bonus they are a BBB Member!
Love this dog care center especially with no crates! Dogs have wide open rooms, A/C, and beds for naps and overnights. Super caring, fun, accommodating, clean, comfortable roomy play spaces for our pups! The staff is very attentive to our little loves. They have been so reliable and I don’t know what I’d do without them. Toby’s turning into a super social puppy!
Laura is so good grooming my difficult dog. He’s been happy with her. Professional clean organized and safe.
Great spot to board your doggo. Our corgi loves it and their grooming services are great especially before we pick her up!
Passing by I saw your sign We dig your dog and then saw Grooming, (I hadn’t checked out your facility as I had been in search of a new groomer since LC had closed) so glad I did because that was when I read Laura was there!!! She was always so fantastic with my dog Tucker. I got an appointment with her the very next day. Tucker was treated very well as he can be a handful, but Laura always knows how to handle him. Your facility is beautiful, staff working there are super friendly and I will definitely recommend you to everyone!!!
We Dig Your Dog is the best dog daycare/boarding/grooming facility my dog has been apart of. They truly care for your dog, have many different areas for them to play or rest, and are flexible to fit your dog's needs. Their prices are more than reasonable for never crating dogs, even during boarding. They always have things to say about my dog at the end of the dog and have been understanding and kind when my dog has had a cranky day or made a mistake. They are also so accommodating to my ever-changing schedule and last minute changes. Since moving to Massachusetts, We Dig Your Dog has been one of the best things to happen to both my dog and I, and I can't extend my gratitude enough :)
We visit to have Matt, from Nails by Matt, clip our dogs paws every 6 weeks. He does a fantastic job with our little guy. Highly recommend!
We Dig you dog is The best. Our small dog Cookie is well taken care when boarding and comes home happy. Star is relaxed and can do. Grooming at We Dig your Dog is simply THE BEST. Laura is amazing.
Such an amazing place. Setting up or moving around appointments is no issue with the manager Anne. Laura goes the extra mile to ensure both the dog and the customer have an amazing grooming experience. 5 stars!
We hired Laurie to work with our rescue dog due to the jumping behavior that he was exhibiting. We were expecting a baby within a few months and needed to get the jumping under control. Laurie was nothing less than incredible. She helped us to understand that we needed to get foundational skills in place, taught us how to work on basic commands at home, and taught us how to minimize his anxiety. The change we have seen in him has been amazing. We can not recommend Laurie and Just Paws enough. Our dog loves her, we love her, and we are confident that anyone who works with her will love her too!
I met Laurie after my dog began to show aggressive tendencies towards strangers. He's a little guy and he and I both needed the training to get him track. She has been fabulous and has taught me so much about being a responsible dog owner. I've since hired her company to walk my dogs daily. She and her team are responsible and dependable and I'm very grateful to have them with us. Highly recommend for any of your dog needs.
Laurie has been a life changer. We asked for her assistance for we were ready to rehome our puppy. She worked with us consistently and now he is a well behaved member of our family! Truly the best dog trainer! Love that she comes to us and works with us in our puppy normal Environment!
After we adopted our second rescue dog two years ago we knew we needed an experienced dog walker. With Just Paws not only did we find incredibly experienced, professional walkers, but the added benefit of an experienced dog trainer, owner Laurie, who has helped us turn our street dog into a behaved and loving companion. Their personal caring and patience w our pets sets them apart- they truly go above and beyond. And they offer very flexible pet sitting sitting services as well. They have it all Highly recommend!
I have been using Just Paws for three years. I have had many years of dog walkers/sitters and I have never worked with a more professional company. All of the walkers/sitters at Just Paws have been incredibly kind to my animals and my animals LOVE them all. This company has become like family. I have used them for daily walks and overnights. They are very tidy and respectful when in my home. Whenever we come home our animals act like we never left because they were in such great care. We have also had some family emergencies and Just Paws was there for all of our needs immediately. Laurie Gorlick is a true professional and expects the same for all of her walkers/sitters.
Thrilled to have restarted with Just Paws with my new puppy! Laurie gave over the top , consistent loving and professional care to my two hounds for over 10 years! Laurie is now working with me and my new little puppy. I am beyond confident Buddy will have the most loving care.There is NO DOUBT .Buddy will be a happy and well trained pup! Jennifer
I’ve been a client of Just Paws for several years. In that entire time, not once has the crew said “no” or “we can’t”. We use an app to schedule, but Laurie the owner also responds quickly to emails and texts. After every walk of my little guy Rocco, I get a digital report of how he did, along with pictures and cute messages. The entire team is dog happy and respectful of special needs, such as diet and injuries. It’s tough to run a small business these days, but Laurie and her team work hard to make sure every client and every doggo are well cared for and happy.
Amy from Just Paws is an amazing cat sitter! We have a very unfriendly cat which makes boarding/ finding cat sitters very difficult. While we were away on our trip, Amy came daily to take care of Shula (our cat), we received detailed updates every day on how the visit was and a daily photo through Just Paws portal. The portal is very easy to use, and we were able to reply there to the daily updates, and send additional requests. I highly recommend Amy from Just Paws for cat sitting! She’s truly the cat whisperer! She brought with her some toys and laser pointer, and got our unfriendly cat to play with her!
If you want excellent dog training, call them. Laurie comes to our home and works with the whole family. Amazing results. Reasonably priced.
Completely recommend and will be using Ashland Pet concierge again. Our 2 precious cats were care for primarily by Alexandra for 9 days. We could not be more pleased with everyones care, service and professionalism. We received messages each day when they got to our house, and when they left, we received a summary from them of their care, including pictures. They also offered to do any other small things around our house while we were gone such as taking out the garbage or watering the plants. We did not use this service, but it’s good to know that it is available.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ashland Pet Concierge. They take such wonderful care of our kitties when we go away. Recently we got in a bind, being impacted by the CrowdStrike outage, and scrambling for a way to return home when our flight was cancelled. The team was so understanding and able to work with us to fill the gap during an incredibly busy summer vacation season. We are truly thankful. Highly recommended!!
Ashland Pet Concierge is a wonderful service. They are reliable and professional. We know we can always count on them to take care of our pet (a bird) right in our own home whenever we need to be away. I highly recommend them!
We have used the pet-sitting services of the Ashland Pet Concierge since Carolyn first started the business. She and her team are great professionals, with strong expertise in their work with pets. Two of our cats have been clients, and the interactions with them has always been warm and supportive. Our current cat, Mia, is very pleased with the APC team.
We have used a number of pet sitters through the years. When we found Ashland Pet Concierge we knew we had made the right choice. From setting up appointments through the portal to the extra work that they do each visit, we've been extremely happy. When they visit, they don't just feed and water your pet and take in the mail. They offered to water my garden and potted tomatoes outside, put garbage/recycling on the curb on a specific day etc. Every visit they give a report and post pictures. Initially the pictures were our cat (Layla) under the bed, but over time, the sitters have managed to coax her out. Now she'll pose in the kitchen for them. As they leave they check into the portal, which emails me giving a time, a personally written summary and pictures so that we know Layla is well and happy. We were in Europe and our companions would look forward to the photos and were impressed with the level of care. We've been able to answer questions via the portal - it's so easy. My wife calls them "the nice ladies". We've had emergencies where we've had to leave the state. Carolyn has stepped up and made sure Layla taken care of despite the short notice. We are very happy with Ashland Pet Concierge and recommend them highly.
I am soooo happy we found Ashland pet concierge! Alex is amazing, my puppy looooves her and I know that when she comes into my home, Maggie (my puppy) is getting the same treatment I give her. Alex was super easy to talk to, plan schedules with and just wonderful overall. My dog is in good hands with this business. I love supporting local businesses and my pup is ecstatic to see Alex and get some lovins! A huge weight off my shoulders knowing my pup is taken care of.
The APC team has taken care of our dog Millie for three years now. Their detailed, daily notes are very comforting and helpful. Not only do they send a note every day with all the particulars of the walk and bathroom details (they're doing God's work here people!), but they manage to get the most adorable pictures of her every day! It is the bright spot in my day to read their comments and see their pictures! In addition, they are very understanding when it comes to Millie's issues: she can be dog-dog reactive and she is a tri-pawd (three-legged) dog. Both of those issues combined may scare away other dog walkers, but they lovingly take her for fun, safe walks daily and seem to love her to pieces! Thanks for the love, cuddles, and snacks you give her! She loves you guys!
I moved to Ashland a year ago with a reactive rescued German Shepard. Carolyn immediately paired me and my dog with Alex. Alex is an amazing dog handler! Bishop responds to her every command and she sent pictures and write ups after every visit. I can highly recommend Ashland Pet Concierge and Alex to anybody with a dog walking need!
I used Ashland pet concierge every time I travelled for three years, and the service was always excellent and consistent. This is a professional, quality local business and I never worried about leaving our shy kitty to their care. They are a notch above trying to find someone who does it on the side or through app services. The worst thing about moving was is being able to rely on them when I travel now!
Ashland Pet Concierge staff members have taken excellent care of our various cats during our travels for at least 10 years. They make sure that pets have adequate food and water, plus playtime. Staffers also send a daily photo or two of your pet so that you can see that all is well. (APC = peace of mind!)
Shae (Norwegian Elk Hound) is traditionally skittish around new people, but once you’re in your clan she’s your BFF. They took the time to get to know her and make her comfortable and she had a fantastic time while she was there. The team is great and is always willing to give you an update when you call. 10/10 Shae can’t wait for her next stay
Southboro Kennels is absolutely amazing, and I wish I could give them more than 5 stars. really a wonderful family owned small business. We had never boarded our two corgi puppies before, or left them for a more than a weekend, but we went to Hawaii for 14 days and kept our pups with them the entire time. Southboro Kennels was incredibly knowledgeable about all breeds in terms of personality and how to care best for them. They absolutely went the extra mile to make both our dogs and us feel comfortable while we were gone. I can definitely tell both dogs had an awesome time there, and our younger one even seems more social with other dogs since coming home. Will be boarding there for all our future needs!
I'm so happy I found this place! I have a fear reactive corso who takes a while to warm up to new people (once he does he's the biggest softy). This makes finding boarding for him very difficult. Everyone at Southborough Kennels was amazing with him! They took the proper steps to slowly get him comfortable with the facility as well as all the staff he would come in contact with. They were so patient, understanding and professional! He's only spent a handful of days here so far, but I can tell he's already happy to see the staff and to get out into the yard and play ball.
Boarded my two large breed dogs here, one of which is an unfixed female under a year old. They kept them together and not in group sessions because of the female's status (which I wanted anyway). They were also receptive about my concerns about bloat and to not have any of their play sessions for at least an hour after they had eaten. I feel confident about leaving them there again.
Our mini-poodle, Teddy LOVES it here! We have left him here for a week at a time and at pick up he greets the staff with the same eagerness as us! Great that the dogs get a private run, and we add two play times daily. Bath on his way out is a plus - today he was quite.ready for the 4th of July 😀 …
It is a great spot for our dog to stay and be treated well. We have been long timed customers and we are on our next generation of dogs as guests. They always race to go in and are tail wagging when they come out. Mitchell, Amanda and Zach are dog people and hire a great team. Highly recommend them.
This place not only watches your dogs, they care for them. We picked up our anxious dog after her first overnight ever and she was calm and happy, no excessive energy or fear. Both our dogs love it here.
I had my kitten boarded here for 5 days last week and they took such good care of him! Everyone there is extremely nice and helpful. I was nervous about having to leave my kitten behind for several days, but he was in great hands and given lots of love and care. I will definitely continue taking my pets here when I am out of town.
We have been coming here for years. They have always been fantastic, trustworthy consistent. The staff have always been attentive, caring, and really love being with the animals. The runs (for the dogs) are indoor/outdoor and fairly large. Our dog Jesse seems to enjoy it, he comes at least twice a year for extended vacations. We also boarded our cat Loki here (when she was still around) We have been coming here since 2013 and will continue. I highly recommend Southboro Kennels! Family owned, and great care for your dogs and cats! Ps cash or check, no credit cards FYI.
This is hands down the best kennel I have ever taken my dogs to. The staff are so friendly and helpful and truly cared for my dogs while they were there. They knew my dogs so well by the time they went home! I highly recommend Southboro Kennels and they will be my go-to moving forward.
Bryna did a great work with Tina. I was amazed in the first session how she taught her a set of commands. In our last session she focused on our main problems; biting and leach pulling. I think she gave me the tools to overcome the final problems I had. I just need to be persistent and practice. I learned a lot. Bryna gave many useful tips. Thank you!
Bryna, Was very through with her training methods. She asked us what we needed help with and she easily demonstrated training commands. She made me comfortable with positive reinforcements as I worked with our new dog Bourbon. Bryna was able to add much needed suggestions as I learned how to take control over our very rambunctious new dog. We highly recommend her ability to help dog owners.
Bryna was very helpful training our new puppy! She provided us with a great foundation.
My fiancé and I are new puppy parents and were feeling overwhelmed when Orion first came home. The first training session with Bryna was a huge success and gave us a sense of direction in raising our sweet boy. She gives great advice on all the basic training tools and will cater to your doggy’s specific needs. Wonderful experiences working with Must Love Dogs!!
We have a 3 month old labrador retriever, who was exhibiting typical lab behavior… high energy, biting everything in site. Bryna was so knowledgeable and patient. She taught us some great training techniques and tips and provided us with the tools to communicate more effectively. Our puppy now understands our expectations. We have seen such positive changes after just a few training sessions and have formed a stronger bond with our puppy and are starting to have a lot fun together. We cannot thank Bryna enough for all of her help.
Bryna was extremely professional and responded immediately to all of our inquiries without any unnecessary pressure to make a decision. Bryna’s patience and knowledge made our training seemless. If one tactic didn’t work with our stubborn pup, she had another trick up her sleeve. Always on time and flexible when our pup was sick, scheduling training was very convenient. Bryna’s love of dogs is quite apparent and she had great suggestions and feedback. I highly recommend “Must Love Dogs” to help positively training your canine family member!
I am very pleased with personalized dog training in my home and neighborhood. Received good advice on calming the way my dog greets visitors, and improving his behavior on walks. Highly recommend.
Bryna is a wonderful trainer. She’s very good at coming up with alternate solutions to correcting problem behaviors. Training a stubborn French Bulldog isn’t easy and can be a test of patience, but Bryna makes it look easy.
Bryna did a wonderful job! My husband and I are new dog owners and needed plenty of guidance to care for our Boston Terrier. Bryna is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and patient - both with puppies and humans 🙂 Our puppy responded well to her and her training. Additionally, she helped us learn a great deal about dog ownership in general.
We were overwhelmed with our new poodle puppy when we called Bryna. Our little Bebe took to her immediately and was very responsive to her. She gave us practical tips to our training challenges and explained how to find solutions to problem behavior. Bryna really "gets" dogs and knows the techniques to get them to respond.
