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!
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!
Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!
Jasmine is a five-star sitter. She is everything you want in a sitter when you go away and leave your beloved pet and home. She is reliable, communicative, respectful, and flexible. We had no worries about our dog or home while we were away, and will be having Jasmine sit for us again soon. Our home was immaculate when we got home, and our dog was obviously well-cared-for. Can't say enough good things about this wonderful human.
Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Wendy sat for us on three occasions this Summer and I can’t say enough good things about her. The dogs were well taken care of and she was, organized, tidy, and responsible. It’s great to find a house/pet sitter that you can rest easy knowing everything is taken care of. We are hoping she will want to spend more time in the PNW!
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.
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 loved my experience with these people. They have been in business for a long time and I’ll definitely be going back. We were tenderly greeted and my Australian Shepard has never looked so good. I asked for a nice close cut, because it’s summer and he loves to swim and the owner did a fabulous job. I will bring him back there and I will board there if I ever need to. Great place I walked in to a place in a small strip mall in Hubbardston to get some information not too long ago and waited and waited and waited (in fact I think I was being ignored, since she looked at me several times) young lady working on an Aussie who didn’t appear to be having a good time (yelped while I was there). Once that occurred, I turned around and headed for the door and decided that I will never return there.
I had my high energy yet obedient dog groomed . My dog is usually excited to see me when I pick him up from a groomer. He was groggy, listless and slept the whole way home. Ask if they give calming treats before grooming. My dog was drugged without my permission. If you love your pet, do not go here.
Puttin on the Ritz is an excellent kennel. Their price is very fair and they handle the dogs excellently. Our dog Dover was a challenge when put into a kennel next to a smaller dog he would turn into a vicious frothing maniac. However through proper kennel management by the owners they found out when placed next to a larger dog he was calm passive and happy. They had no problems with him we even brought tranquilizers just in case because our last kennel could not handle him. When we picked up after 10 days of being in Aruba they said that he was a charm they would be glad to have him back and they did not give him any medication at all and through proper kennel management they handled him brilliantly. I would recommend them to anybody.
POTR receives a lot of great reviews so I was excited to leave my dog with them. However, I was pretty disappointed. When I first arrived, I really couldn’t figure out how to get in. There were no signs about where to go and it looked like a residential house. A woman yelled to me and pointed from inside but I couldn’t figure out what she meant. Whatever though, I know that’s a very minor detail. I continued with the drop off process and spoke to the gentleman that I assume ran the place. He seemed friendly but I was a little concerned about the environment as I saw a lot of dogs in crates. I wasn’t told about how my dog would be treated (if she would go for walks, play time etc) for all I know she could have been in the crate for most of the week. I think if that had been discussed I would feel a little better. After a week went by I picked my dog up. The same gentlemen met me to release her. Again he seemed friendly. However, I quickly noticed a few things. 1) My dog had a significant injury to her nose. I understand that stuff happens when dogs play but I wasn’t told what happened or anything about it. This made me a little concerned. 2) My dog smelled bad. 3) Cost was decent but not for the level of service I got. One year my previous dog stayed at a place in Littleton, NH that charged 25/night and it included a doggy suite, homemade treats, long walks and a full staff of support. That was a steal compared to this. Unfortunately, I will probably not bring her back to POTR.
Great place to board your beloved pets with reassurance that all will be good a short time later. Both my girls got the bath and nail treatments before I picked them up as well! Thumbs up for T & T. !!!!
One of the top groomers in the country. Very good with the dogs. Also excellent for boarding. The dogs are treated well.
They are amazing at grooming, but more importantly, you know you dog is safe and well attended.
Good place to go if you're blue and don't know where to go, this is assuredly where fashion sits. It's really cool here after nine!
They make my rough and tumble, shaggy Poodle look like a show dog when he walks out of there! Wonderful groomers!
My 2 dogs seem to have had a great time for the week they were there!
I brought our cat, Spot here today. July 7, 2020. She needed a bath and due to Covid was past due. Spot doesn't like everyone, she can be very friendly and get mad quick if she doesn't like the situation. Our groomer has moved and I wanted to find one close. Fox Run was awesome. The groomer met me at the door, took Spot and instantly started talking to her, Spot loved that and it made her and me feel good. I picked her up 3 hours later and she was so soft, beautiful and absolutely adorable. Happy as a clam. It cost 45.00 and I gave her 60.00. You cannot beat the price. I highly recommend and will def be going back.
I have a rescue dog that I got in February who is very timid and nervous around new people/dogs, so I was anxious to board her for the first time. We found Fox Run, and Shelby was so great and really listened to my concerns about boarding her. Shelby had different strategies to accommodate her depending on how she adjusted and wasn't judgmental at all (which I have experienced a lot with other dog "professionals"). When we dropped her off for the first time, I could tell my pup was scared, but the staff was great and took it slow with her. We have used them three different times now and I can tell that my dog really likes all the staff and has a lot of fun while she is there. I would use them more for day care if they weren't quite so far from me. Shelby and crew are awesome, and I would trust them to look over any of my dogs I have now or in the future!
Very happy that they were able to board our 2 large mastiffs. Our dogs can be very difficult and they were able to keep them for 12 days on short notice. They kept us up to date on how they were doing. The process was very simple.
We used Fox Run Kennel during our trip to MA. When booking the reservation I was told as long as I picked my dog up during the morning hours of 7:30-9, I would only be charged one day. There rate is $45/day/dog. When I picked them up at 8:45 they tried to charge me for two days, stating that if I didn’t pick them up at 7:30, (opening time) then I would automatically be charged for an entire another day. This is deceiving and a scam. I feel like because I was from out of state they were trying to take advantage of me. I refused to pay the two day rate. They allowed me to pay for one day after refusing the ridiculous amount. Don’t go here!
Cancelled on my boarding at the last second in what appeared to be revenge for me cancelling a boarding appointment the other month. I had a boarding scheduled for my dog in June and our trip was cancelled so I cancelled our boarding two weeks in advance. The woman I spoke with obviously didn't properly cancel the boarding because on the day our dog was originally scheduled to be boarded a man called us and asked us where we were and if we were coming. I explained to him that I had called the other week to cancel and he asked who I spoke with. I told him it was a woman and he just gave a "oh, ok." and hung up. The woman who called me today to cancel our boarding appointment gave me this nonsense excuse that our dog was difficult the previous time boarded her there and that "the kids" had a hard time handling her. Excuse me, kids? This place uses high school minors and doesn't tell pet owners. I was under the impression that trained professionals would be handling my dog. Nope, they let untrained children handle them. So they lie about who's handling your animal and will then cancel your boarding last minute for spite because you previously cancelled and they screwed up their own schedule. Do yourself a favor and go someplace else. Lots of better boarding options in this area.
Fox Run is a great place to board your pet. They not only take dogs of all sizes but cats and other animals also even rabbits. Very family oriented.
Great place to leave your dogs for the day. The staff is awesome! They were able to accommodate our last minute request.
Wonderful staff, very accommodating (administering meds, extra play time, etc), the only place I bring my dog when I go away.
Took care of my wife's cat made her happy that they took care of him above and beyond for a cat that had to have shoots with every meal and a cat that is old and frail so we could go away
Place used to be awesome used to bring both my dogs there
