Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend
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!
I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day. I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.
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!
Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉
David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!
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.
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
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.
Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used. My husky LOVES her. Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly. She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia. She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)

I have had good experiences with this kennel, and have left my dogs there for boarding on a couple of occasions. This time when I called I was asked to give my credit card for their file, which I have never been asked for before. This policy is not on the website, and asking for the 3 digit pin on the back is unnecessary. When I was told it was a new policy implemented this year, I knew that to be untrue as I had already boarded my pets this year. I dislike companies who change their policies on regular and reliable customers, without notification on their website. If there was an online form for booking with card, this new policy would make more sense.
My partner and I stopped in here today to possibly get our pup registered for daycare. There was no issue with the fact that they weren’t taking any new clients till the new year, however the individual who assisted us came through the door looking quite angry and continued to blank stare at me until I awkwardly asked about registration, from there I was dismissed pretty rudely and that was that. I’m not usually one to leave a bad review & I have no issue with them genuinely not having the capacity to take on new pups, but was thrown off by the way we were spoken to and ushered out the door. Thank you kindly to anyone who may read this & im sure by the other reviews this business has this isn’t a usual occurrence.
Betty and the staff at Stay n Play are THE BEST ! We have been taking our dogs there for 4 years now and can't imagine life without them. It's more then just a daycare. They love dogs and take a tone of pictures each day and post them on Facebook so you get to see what your fur baby is doing all day. They tell you if there was a sick dog at day care and know my dogs habits and behaviors so if something is off it can be taken care of. They celebrate each dogs birthday. They treat us and our dogs with respect and for all of those things I'm thankful. Stay n Play is much more then a daycare . They are a second family.
Hi, I am a retired RCMP Member of 33 years. I have spent more than 25 yrs of the 33 working with German Shepherds. I was a RCMP K9 Handler and Trainer for the RCMP. We bought a female from Yan, this dog is above and beyond what I expected from a local Breeder. This line of puppies are confident, inquisitive, energetic and going to be a great family and protection dog. And great looking line of dogs. Thank you Yan, you were a pleasure to deal with, your dogs are exceptional !! Mike Landry, St Marie New Brunswick.
They took great care of my two pups while I was on vacation!
They were friendly and were able to board my pet for extra days due to a personal crisis
Great agility classes. Tamara is a great instructor. Be patient learning agility takes time. Also good safe boarding and doggie daycare
Wally & Layla LOVE 'puppy play park'! Perfect for socialization and when you're on vacation.
These folks are true dog lovers. Your dogs are in good hands here. Don’t think twice about leaving them with Betty and her caring staff
First day going for training our dog, Was very informative and we where amazed on what our dog training looks like .
My 5 month old husky was very shy on arrival and after a weekend of loving attention from Marcel as well as his playful and friendly pup team welcomed Riggs with open paws and he is excited to return weekly for play dates! Very highly recommended!
Me and my dog love the Red Woof Inn! Marcel goes above and beyond to make sure each and every dog have a great experience.
10/10 highly recommend. Dogs can free roam at night in a safe environment. Are not locked in kennels. Very clean facility. Reasonable prices. Lots and lots of pictures daily of pups.
We acquired two Japanese Chin pups (litter mates/brothers) at the start of Covid-19 pandemic and they had not been socialized with other dogs, let alone people! Since we plan to travel again at some point in the future we want a safe place for them and access to doggie friends of all sizes and breeds. We were aware of Marcels global animal welfare efforts at saving/improving the lives of many animals over many years, which is why we made the Red Woof our only choice for the care of our boys. We were a little hesitant at first as our boys seemed terrified to be there and ALL the dogs are together big/small, however Marcel is extremely picky about the personalities of the dogs he welcomes into his home and aggression is not tolerated (no matter size). All the dogs that take part in daycare or sleepovers there are well socialized, with agreeable and non-aggressive personalities. Now the boys almost turn themselves inside out with excitement at the mere mention of going to see their doggie friends. We feel they’ve become more outgoing, which has made them far less timid of other animals and people. We are glad to have a safe and happy place for our boys to enjoy the company of canine friends!! 🥰🐶🙏🏼
If you need a doggy daycare you don't have to look any further. We had our puppy there for a week. We have never had patty at a daycare so we were a little nervous about leaving her for a week. They could see our apprehension but he spent nearly a hour explaining how he takes care of his dogs and their schedule for each day. He sent pictures everyday of patty that really help ease our mind knowing she was enjoying the daycare. It's very clean and organized with a separate area for small dogs. Needless to say we were incredibly happy with the owner and his business. He's only been open for a little while but I see great success with his daycare. Thank-you so much.
I was travelling to Nova Scotia from Ontario for the week in a camper trailer and pup, Jack. I had booked a day of sea kayaking but did not want to leave Jack alone for the day. I had looked up a few spots around Truro and came across the Red Woof Inn and figures I'd check it out. I reached out to Marcel about a month prior to my vacation. He stated that an assessment of the dog was necessary prior to taking him in for the day/evening, as well as vaccination papers. A few days prior to the kayaking, as I was passing through Truro, I stopped in to have Marcel assess Jack (to make sure Jack is compatible with Marcel, his two Huskies, and the remaining dogs within Marcel's care). The assessment went well, Jack seemed very at ease and happy when I picked him up. When I brought Jack back for the actual daycare appointment, Jack was very excited to be returning! Marcel is a very kind and genuine soul, and it is quite apparent that he cares for all the dogs within his care. I highly recommend taking a few hours for the assessment in order to allow your dog to spend time here! And to top it off, the price is unbeatable! Thanks again!
Amazing place and one of the best places we have taken our pet. Annie loves going and Marcel is always going above and beyond. He not only is always trying to improve the kennel for the dogs but is also trying to use his business to support local charites and giving back often.
We just picked up our pup Floyd after a week at the Red Woof Inn and he loved it! We will be using this daycare if we ever need to again. Would recommend to anyone!
Marcel is the best. He loves the dogs and provides a fun, loving atmosphere for our puppies.
Marcel is a great guy and I know he takes care of all the animals with the best of his abilities!
This is the only professional groomer I trust my dog with. She is amazing at what she does and she is a pet lover. Only go to see Courtney for all your pet grooming needs!! Update March 2022: still the very best groomer around and the only person I trust with my dog. Can't ever see this changing.
Coming down from Halifax to visit someone in the hospital, they graciously took in my Great Dane while I ran back to the hospital. Came back in a couple hours and my dog was obviously happy and content there. She's normally timid in new places, but not here. She'll be going there for every hospital visit for now on.
These ladies were great with Cattie-brie. She's an 80lb mastiff that hates getting her nails done . It took mins to get her mani and pedi ❤
Great place Courtney's great with the dogs soon as I take my dog out of the car she pulls me all the way up the ramp to go in 🥰 …
Courtney is extremely gentle and very good with all animals. Great place to take your pet.
Courtney is great and my dogs love going there ;)
My puppies were well cared for and I'd take them there again, they were referred to by Park Your Paws, thanks.
You can tell all pet that go in for grooming are loved like her own fur babies
Very good at grooming dogs and they all love her
Cooper and Amarok love staying here, when we are away!
Village Dogs is the best of.Cape breton! My little Starlita just loves going to "school" and seeing all her "teachers" all the pups are well cared and kept up with their training. Can't say enough about this place !
My Boxer mix has been with the team for over a year now. She has not only gained confidence and control. She is well-behaved and listens significantly more since starting daycare and training. They are the best and make you feel part of their family! No better option in CB.
They are very good, at what they do. Highly recommended, you want to train your pup/dog this is the spot to go.
The best place to take care of your pup for the day! Friendly attentive staff. Great exercise and socialization for the pups. Hours are excellent for our busy schedule. Glad to be able to bring our fur kid there.
I started my dog at Bowlin Farms at about 7 months old and it did wonders socializing him and burning off his puppy energy! The Sunday socials are always a blast, and the staff is great.
Great staff, great facility. The only downside is my little beasty comea home a little dusty. Im always amazed how the pack are all running around happy and having fun. When we are pulling in my girl gets insanely excited!
Owners don’t care about their employees besides the 2 “managers”. One who is lazy, is high all the time and takes advantage of her position and the other who is young, has anger problems and is way too aggressive with some of the dogs. Myself and a few of the girls before me have brought up concerns of treatment of some of the dogs but they will not listen to it. Owner lives away (Ontario or out west) is a cop and is not friendly at all and as long as she’s getting her pay cheque she doesn’t care about anything anyone says. The other workers are great
Great welcoming Staff very respectful and professional,great with my Chico lots of room to play rates for Day care are very good Clean and Large play area’s
This is a great place for your dog to socialize and get tons of exercise, whether for half or a full day. Staff are great!
My dog loves his time at doggie day camp. The staff take great care of the dogs and are very friendly. The grounds are always clean and very spacious which allows lots of room for the dogs to run and play. Love the fact you can book for a few hours to a full day. Highly recommended!
My daughter works there. Way better than Jollytails.
We needed to take our 9 month old pup to Bowling several time while we were caring for my sick mother and they were very friendly and accommodating. Our pup had a great time playing with the other dogs and came home ready to rest! We will be back anytime.
Our dog loves this farm! We say, 'do you want to go play with the doggies?' And she bolts for the door! And when home is exhausted. Our favorite place to take her.
So far in the last 10 years we have boarded 2 of our dogs here and this place is fantastic,dogs love it,we don't have any concerns when leaving and the family is great. I always say how lucky we were to find this place ,they are our dog's fun and home away from home place. 5 out of 5 rating from me for sure....... Thank you Adele for being so thoughtful with Chloe our German Shepard dog.
Excellent service provided. Booked last minute. Adele was easy to communicate with and took care of all the dogs needs
An excellent kennel whose owner, Adele O'Brien, goes above and beyond to look after for the dogs in her career. When I left my Labrador at Pets and Pals, Hurricane Fiona hit. Adele took Charlie into her own home so he wouldn't be frightened during the maelstrom.
Adele is awesome with my 6 month old huskey. He was testing her and she was right ontop of his Shanahan's and once hunter knew that she was the boss then he was good as can be with her. I am so glad I chose Pet Pals boarding kennel for my very active huskey.
My boys spent 2 weeks there, and I loved how they were given the attention they needed and the time. I also loved how I received videos every other day of them just enjoying outside playing fetch and just chasing each other.
Great people. Dog centered.
Dog came back to us after 2 days, lesion on her elbow, dog bite on her face. A week later she presented with symptoms of kennel cough, and we also got her face checked, and her face got infected, so now she's sick with kennel cough and is on antibiotics for her lesions. Never bringing our dog back there. They clearly need to pay closer attention, and maybe if they know kennel cough is going around, to sanitize areas better. Truly disappointed in our first boarding experience for our 7 month old puppy 😪
I can't say enough good things about Melanie and the staff at Cross Rd. Boarding. I've never felt so confident leaving my dog with anyone. Besides their wonderful manner and friendly demeanor... Melanie's facilities are certified 'fear free', she is a behavioral consultant, and part of the association of professional dog trainers. When I look for someone who I can trust to leave my dog that will use humane training methods and care, certifications like these are key. Our dog is an anxious fearful rescue dog who takes a while to warm up to strangers. She is reactive and very dog selective so leaving her with traditional boarders is not an option. Melanie caters to your dog's individual needs and I was put at ease our very first time when she told me Stella would have a fenced in outdoor area to herself. I also love that the number of dogs she takes in is kept small so as to provide the best care. We honestly don't know what we would do without Cross Road boarding!
Melanie took care of our border collie for a week in March of 2022. Oscar came back relaxed, happy, and squeaky clean thanks to the bath we ordered for our return. She was accessible during our vacation and sent us updates when we asked how he was doing. She has a large facility, has a lot of experience training dogs, and her rates are excellent. Highly recommended!
I am so thankful to have such a skilled and accommodating place to take my dog for daycare, overnight stays, nail trims and now groomings! Not to mention dog behavioral analysis, and guidance in appropriate training methods. Reasonable pricing, and always flexible with drop off/pick up times when needed. I would recommend this place to anyone, low or high need dogs. My dog isn't always easy to get along with and can get quite anxious, but he can't get enough of daycare and always comes home happy and content. Melanie has a wealth of canine knowledge and goes above and beyond to ensure every dog in her care is comfortable and happy, I wouldn't dream of taking my dog elsewhere!
The facilities are fantastic, and Melanie (the owner) is amazing - it's easy to see that she truly cares about all the dogs she looks after. Literally every time we bring our dog Roxy, she is ready to run to Melanie without so much as a backward glance, and seems to get lots of exercise and socialization. With an affordable overnight boarding cost, and accommodating pickup and drop off times, I would recommend this to anyone with a dog 🐶
Melanie is so sweet, and so knowledgeable. I was nervous leaving our pup for the first time overnight, but she made me feel comfortable. Our pup had a wonderful weekend at Cross Rd, and we won't hesitate to bring him back!
Great training advice, and great service. Melanie has steered us in the right direction with Gizmo's training on plenty of occasions. We put him in daycare once a week; he's safe and socialised, and we pick up a very tired, happy dog at the end of the day. That's worth every penny.
So happy to find this place for our 2 dogs. They were very well taken care of! They can stay together in a clean, warm, dry building with lots of outdoor time. You can order a bath and nail trim before pickup. Rates are very reasonable! Highly recommend this business
Lucy loves it there, right from the start. She whines and scratches at the door (bad Lucy lol) when we turn in she’s so happy and excited. I also really like that Melanie is educated in behavior science, it makes a difference :) I felt comfortable leaving Lucy there the first day even though she was a little unsure of her new place at first. That quickly changed
Out dog loves this kennel. It's our goto for overnights.
Ashley took such good care of our cat Chet while we were away on holiday. The best part of her service was her post-visit reports, telling us exactly when she was there, what she did, how Chet was and the best part - she posted photos of him each time she was there. An excellent service and we will definitely be engaging South Shore Pet sitting services again!
I've been using South Shore Pet Sitting for over six months and am pleased and satisfied with Ashley's Service. Flexible, affordable, and friendly. Our Beagle loves going there, and I know Ashley takes excellent care of her. Thank you so much! I'm happy to recommend your pet-sitting service on the South Shore of Nova Scotia!
Ashely made going away easy! She took care of our cat, as well as my parents' senior cat (who was visiting with us) capably and with care. She was proactive with her preparation; asking all the right questions. She was at the house, on time, every day and the photo updates were nice to have. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ashley as a pet sitter and we'll be repeat customers, for sure!
We recently had the pleasure of using South Shore Pet Sitting to look after our two cats while we were away, and we could not be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish, Ashley's professional service was exceptional and truly exceeded our expectations. Ashley is caring and attentive. She took the time to get to know our cats and understand their individual needs and personalities. It is evident that she genuinely love animals and is passionate about providing the best care possible. Dependability is key when entrusting someone with your pets. Ashley has organized South Shore Pet Sitting in a way that allows her to be consistently on time for visits, providing regular updates and pictures and ensuring that clients are fully informed. This level of communication gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away without any worries. Ashley followed all our instructions meticulously, ensuring that the cats' feeding was adhered to perfectly and she also provided excellent advice. Our home was also kept tidy, and we returned to find everything in excellent order. In addition to the exemplary service, Ashley is friendly and approachable. She was more than willing to accommodate our special request when we extended our stay due to flight delays. We highly recommend South Shore Pet Sitting to anyone in need of pet care services. Our cats were happy and healthy upon our return, and we will definitely be using South Shore Pet Sitting's services again in the future. For Yvanka and Maya in Lahave, Nova Scotia
Very professional services, an amazing sitter when it came to watching our 3 crazy cats. Ashley kept us up to date with journals and pictures daily of what our cats were up too. Very grateful to have her services.
Went to Europe for two weeks for a family vacation and had absolute peace of mind knowing our cats were taken care of. Detailed updates of services and a daily journal with pictures made us assured our cats were happy and safe. Highly recommend South Shore Pet Sitting and look forward to using their services in the future!
Ashley took care of our cat while we were away for ten days. She was absolutely wonderful. Our cat required daily medication and he was quite grumpy while we gone. Ashley was patient, kind and compassionate with him. She as well brought in our mail and kept an eye on the house. I would highly recommend her. She put my mind at ease and I knew our cat was in great hands. Thank you, Ashley. You are the best !
We are very grateful to have found Ashley. We have used her services multiple times and the amount of comfort we gained by having Ashley look after our two cats (one being elderly and requiring medication twice daily) while being away was priceless. Her daily visit updates were frequent and thoughtful. Thank you Ashley!
We hired South Shore Pet Sitting to take care of our cat for a little over two weeks. During the introduction visit Ashley had an immediate rapport with our cat and asked all the right questions. She is friendly, professional, reliable, pays attention to details and knows how to read animal behaviour. She remained in daily contact with photos and notes, and when she needed to adjust a few things (food amount) she took the initiative but also let us know so we could follow the changes. We would hire her again and are happy to recommend her.
Ashley took wonderful care of our two senior cats (one who requires medication) while we were away for 10 days. She also kept an eye on the house, brought in mail etc. Daily communication, prompt responses to any questions I had and daily pictures of our kitties meant I felt very comfortable. And the kitties loved her too. I would highly recommend her services.
