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.

Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!
Janet and Bob were great to our pups and our home! They were our first sitters so we weren’t really sure what we were getting into, but they made it an awesome experience! They are coming back to stay with our dogs again in August. Definitely trust them with your fur babies!! 🐾🐶
Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.
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!
Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.

I hate to do this but it’s the experience we had. I’ve only used them a couple of times and had a weird vibe but I thought it was me being a protective dog owner. The last time we went, my very socialized dog, did not want to go in and was pulling me out the gate. What in the world?! He doesn’t even do that at the vet which he’s definitely not a fan of. I’ve never seen dogs playing outside or at the yard fence barking but I hear them barking non stop inside. The last time I went to pick my dog up, the owner was in his home and not in the dog building. I would think the dogs would need supervision at all times. Lastly, the owner used one of their leashes to bring my dog out and my dog freaked out when I tried to use it the next day. He pulled away and refused to let me put it on him to walk in our house. After this last time, I shared my experience with another dog owner friend whom I learned used them and experienced something similar and never went back. I’m trusting my gut and my dog’s reaction and will not be using them again. The price seems too good to be true.
Great people who take great care of your dogs. Their passion for animal care and friendly service shone through. And they care about you and your pet and not just as a customer. You would be hard pressed to find a better doggie day care.
Great family run business, our dog is very happy there. Great secluded location. Quiet. Gem of a place. They do not advertise much, it’s mostly word-of-mouth. So happy this is a hidden gem!
Brought our pup, Charlie, here for the first time, and he loved it there. He is a smaller pup, and this place truly catered to his needs. If your pup is smaller than most, more timid, more clingy to people, etc. they will do what needs to get done to make sure your pup is a comfortable as they can be. We will definitely be bringing our pup Charlie back when we go away again! Great place.
Great and affordable dog care in Ellicott city area. Dog likes the open field area and always returns happy
My dogs were happy and tired when I picked them up. Great experience and will definitely use their day care services for dogs again soon!
We just completed our first boarding of our frisky little pup. He has been a regular daycare student for over a year. If you want quality, safe, affordable, family style care for your dog this is the place. It took all the stress away while I was in the hospital a few days. Our pup is always happy to be dropped off at this doggy play palace. I would rate them a ten but I think five stars is the best. Keith M
Hands down the very best pet day care/boarding in the area. The staff quality beats any petsmart, vet, kennel, or other big dog camps in the area. Shaun is a dog whisperer who magically helps my dog feel at ease and comfortable. She is always happy and fit whenever I pick her up from the day care. My dog always seems so happy to have spent her days here.. This is a family owned, local business and I am so lucky to have the folks at Furry Friends Farm doing what they do. This place a hidden gem and I will leave my dog with them any time, any day!
Stacy and Shaun are always been flexible, responsive and helpful with us when we needed our dogs to be at the daycare. Having said that, the most We love about this daycare is that we don’t need to worry or rush to pick them up. They have late pick up hours for convenience. Thank you!
My dogs absolutely love coming here to this facility. And every single person that works here treats my dogs like family. They get so excited to get out of my truck to see everyone and play with the other dogs. I will never take my dogs anywhere else! This is the best facility I have ever been to.
My Great Pyrenees LOVES going here, and they are always excited to see her too which I love. We board her overnight while we are on vacation, and she always comes home clean from a bath and exhausted from playtime with other dogs. We would send her here more often if they provided pickup/drop-off, but as it is they are great for vacations. Five stars!!
Ziggy (currently 9m old) grew up at Happy Dog and we are so sad we no longer live 10 min away! Not only did he come home exhausted every time we brought him (sleeping most of the next day and saving our sanity), but the older dogs also taught Ziggy play etiquette and how to get along with dogs of all types and temperaments. (I also have the suspicion that they helped potty train him.) Plus, the staff are wonderful and you can see their love for the pups. Ziggy would not be the dog he is today without Happy Dog! We truly love and miss this place ❤️
Pictured here is our dog Dolly for the 48 hours after coming home from Happy Dog. Backstory: Our friends told us about this daycare/boarding location after we were lamenting the fact that places like PetSmart and other daycares and boarding services wouldn’t take Dolly because she has some American Staffordshire Terrier in her mix, or they would keep her in a room by herself the whole time. Happy Dog welcomed Dolly with open arms and I appreciate how they approach each dog individually to see how they interact with the pack. Dolly has learned a lot from the staff about how to play with her friends without getting too excited and rough. It’s clear all the dogs in their care are well-loved and cared for. Happy Dog really lives up to its name.
This is a great place for our 4 legged kids, my young boy is a big dog but gets anxious when he is away from us. The staff here understands his personality and takes care of him accordingly. We settled here after trying a few places in the neighborhood. They are all very friendly and always greet us with a smile.
I have been taking my dog there for about a month and he’s always excited to go every morning! The staff there treats him like he’s their own and he loves them. They do a wonderful job taking care of my pup
If I could give more than 5 stars I would! A few months ago I rescued a dog that we later found it did not do well left alone while we were at work. Happy Dog Care are been a lifesaver! We use them 2-3 times a week and our beagle has been so happy! His behavior has improved, and he LOVES getting to see all of his dog and people friends there. The staff is wonderful and really gets to know all of the dogs. I love that they do picture days, celebrate dog's birthdays, and will give you plenty of updates about how your dog is doing. The only reason we are leaving is because we are moving across the country. Our new day care will have a very big shoes to fill!
100% recommend Happy Dog Care!! The staff loves my dog so much and it really shows. It's a great feeling to be able to leave your dog somewhere you completely trust. We've done boarding as well and have never had any problems. I'm thankful to all the staff!
Love this place! I have tried out multiple daycares for my dog and the difference in our experience with Happy Dog Care vs the others is night and day. Marcel is super excited when he goes to them and comes back completely exhausted after all the fun he has had!
I am so thankful for Happy Dog! I started taking my two dogs here when one was about 5 months old and full of energy, and she absolutely loved it. She is now 5 years old and still loves her days at Happy Dog! My other dog is a grump and doesn't usually like other dogs (or people), and even she pulls me through the door when we get there! The staff are wonderful and truly care about the dogs and treat them with so much love.
My dog has been attending day care as well as boarding at Happy Dog for over 8 years. He loves going to Happy Dog and the staff consistently provide kind and gentle care. Julie and her staff know canines and they supervise, feed, walk, and provide loving companionship to all the pups. When I have to travel or be away from home, I have no worries at all about my beloved dog being in their care. Dogs can crate overnight or be open; there are rooms for small dogs and plenty of play areas and equipment. It is super clean. They also can provide grooming if pre-arranged. I can't say enough positive things about this wonderful small business where my pup and I have made many human and canine friends over the years!!
