Dog Sitters in Nonantum, MA

My husband, pup, and I moved to California literally over a year ago and still talk about how wonderful Tail Waggerz is as a day care and boarding facility. We have not been able to find anywhere in LA that comes close to the Tail Waggerz experience. The staff is SO caring and sweet. The facility is wonderful--indoor and outdoor spaces. And the doggie/staff crate-free sleepovers are exactly the environment my dog wants if he's not at his own house. We miss you, Tail Waggerz!!

My pup loves these groomers and so do I! Always fast and great, lovely and good vibes. Pricing is fair and transparent.

Very professional in booking appointments and running their business. Liked that they fit my dog in within a week's time. Groomer did a fast and incredible job with my dog.

My husband and I booked our mini dachshund puppy for his first grooming appointment at TailWaggerz and we are extremely happy with their services! The front desk person was very friendly and showed us a video of our puppy playing with another dog while he waited to get picked up. The price was reasonable and our puppy came home smelling and looking great (with a very festive St. Patrick's bandana!)

We are so grateful for Tail Waggerz. Our dog has been a regular at daycare since he was a puppy and always comes home tired and happy. The staff is super friendly and knows the details of our dog's day. It's also incredibly convenient that they have grooming attached in the back. Usually our dog only has his nails trimmed. Yesterday we had the very unfortunate experience of having our dog sprayed by a skunk. The smell was obviously horrible. We brought him in for grooming and the job they did with him was amazing. We are so grateful and relieved.

My pup loves this place! Feels safe, makes friends and is excited every time we go there!

I couldn’t be happier with Tail Waggerz. I did what most people do. Take to the local Facebook community forum and ask for opinions on where to take my very shaggy golden retriever. I had been going to Petco , which was great, but they never had availability sooner than one month. I got an appointment next day due to a cancellation. Filled out the online intake form , had my vet forward vaccinations and we were off. He was nice and trim, bright coat, smelled like a million bucks! Price was amazing and less than Petco. Can’t recommend Tail Waggerz enough.

Truly couldn’t be happier with my experience thus far, after switching my pup to TW after four years at another daycare in brookline that I knew my dog loved, but I was highly uncomfortable with the people who worked there and the frequent turnover of staff. I feel confident dropping Honey off everyday, and she feels safe and so excited to see her new favorite staff and dog friends. Her boarding experiences have been seamless and she comes home SO happy, as well. She is a tail wagger everyday after tail Waggerz. She didn’t go one day this past week, and I had to deal with her mini tantrum about having to stay home with me. But I digress… Everyone who works there is extraordinarily professional and nice. Robyn, Megan, Abbie especially, and of course everyone else are so friendly and fantastic with dogs. I appreciate that both the staff and dog pack at TW is tailored to meet everyone’s needs, including owners’. What a fantastic place and community to be a part of.

This place is the best! We were taking our dog to a different facility before because, being a Boston Terrier puppy, he would not know when to stop playing and we felt going somewhere where he would be in a private room for a few hours between play times would be a good fit. After a few months going there we noticed the quality of the service began to go downhill... They forgot about more than one meal, causing him to develop a new behavior (started nipping our feet when he was hungry, which has been hard to untrain) due to being put in his room without food. Gladly, we found Tail Waggerz! First of all, all employees are clearly dog people and seem to really enjoy their jobs! They are attentive, keep me informed of everything that happens during the day, and he LOVES going there. Price is fair and there is a good discount for packages. They are always posting great pics and videos of all the fun the dogs are having on Facebook. Have not tried their grooming services yet but I heard great things about them. Keep up the good work!

Tail Waggerz is a 2nd home to my Lily. They are staffed with wonderful, animal-loving humans. I trust Tail Waggerz completely. I know Lily is well taken care of and having a great time. I have nothing but the best to say about Tail Waggerz.

Melissa takes exceptional care of her clients pets. She goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy and kept healthy. You can be confident that when you hire her services, you won’t be disappointed and won’t go anywhere else. She’s been in the industry for as long as I can remember and is highly sought after. Highly recommended Parade of Pets!

I don’t know who Sarah Jean is who posted a negative review and I have been bringing my dogs to Parade of Pets for 7 years, know most of the dogs who board and play there and I have never found a pet care business that is as dedicated to the love of dogs as this one. Melissa is experienced in caring for all breeds of dogs, is particular in which dogs she allows to care for, carefully considering temperament and safety. She is the dog whisperer and I wouldn’t leave my furry family members with anyone else. Sara Jean - no idea who you are or what you’re issue is as I see you have bashed other businesses as well. Move on and find another hobby. Parade of Pets is the best in the area.

Parade of Pets has been my go to cat sitter for several years now! Melissa is so reliable and flexible, and very quick to respond whenever I reach out or have a question. She takes great care of my shy kitty!

Parade of Pets has been been there for my little dog Freeway. I rate an easy 5 star going out to this business owner who has over 25 years of experience in the business. Rates are great for boarding, walking during the day also my dog loves going back for “doggy day care” too. Inquire within for more.

I have been using Parade of Pets for several years. They have provided exceptional care to my animals, attention to detail (mail collection, taking out trash, setting alarm) and have been flexible and responsive to my requests for care. If I could give more than five stars I would!

I've been using parade of pets for several months for both of my anxious, oddball pups. Melissa is incredible, very kind, communicative, and flexible. I definitely recommend her for all your furry friends.

I have used Parade of pets for over 15yrs to take care of my dogs. I trust Melissa to take great care of my dog when I am away.

Melissa has taken care of two generations of our cats, and when we moved, we brought her services with us. We are so thankful to have someone we can trust!

I have been using Pooch Hotel since 2021. Back then, I had difficulty finding a suitable place for my dog that could accommodate my working hours. Most places only operated from 7 am to 7 pm, but Pooch Hotel was the only one open 24 hours with after-hours pick-up availability. Over the years, I have seen many people come and go and several different management teams. In 2024, I have noticed many positive changes in both the business and the care of our pups. The staff is super nice, friendly, hardworking, professional, and always positive, even during busy times like around the holidays. I love the new facility design, the seasonal treats, and the doggy training sessions I see happening in the afternoon when I come pick up my Leo. If you’re looking for a place with flexible hours, friendly staff, a nice facility, and a convenient location, this is the place for you ☺️

Jen is awesome! My dog is a rescue and with Jen’s help his behavior improved. She has made him more comfortable in certain situations. He loves to see her!

Garcia was very well taken care of and loved by all staff. They were attentive to her needs and mine as well. I felt very comfortable and assured with her stay. Great place!!! Will see you all again !!!!

My dog Maple ABSOLUTELY LOVES THE POOCH HOTEL! The staff are kind, responsible and very communicative. Maple is a rescue who had a tough start to life, she was very nervous the first day of Daycare. After one week, she became excited everyday for the Pooch Hotel. The staff are always there to greet everyone with a smile. I am so thankful for them!

The Pooch Hotel team is absolutely incredible. Our dog Kobe is SO excited every time we take him to the hotel for boarding. He runs around and kisses all of the employees and his butt wiggles so fast because of how hard he wags his tail. I watch on the webcam and see how happy he is during play group. The staff are so well trained and interact with the dogs during play groups so professionally. When we pick him up, he’s happy to see us, but also again runs around to kiss and say goodbye to the employees. I’m so happy that we found this place. Worth every penny. Thank you endlessly for treating our dog as family. The Pupdates are always incredible as well.

We used this groomer for the first time for our large dog and it was the best grooming he's ever had. He looks so clean, cute, and fluffy and he wasn’t anxious or stressed after his appointment with Ballie, the groomer. They were very sweet to work with and quick with the appointment. So happy we made the change and thrilled with his cut and care.🐾

Updating my review to 4 stars. Originally I was very concerned with how my dog's trial was handled, but Pooch Hotel followed up with me over the phone to explain the situation. The person I spoke to was very helpful and explained that unexpected staffing issues caused the trials to not go as expected that day. She walked me through how my dog's care was approached and, as he's quite anxious in new surroundings, I felt more confident that his specific needs were considered. Considering all the positive reviews for Pooch Hotel, I had been hopeful that our original experience was not the norm, and I'm pleased that this appears to be the case. We are so appreciative of the quality care he’s received!

Pooch Hotel took great care of my dog. Jasper loves playtime with other dogs. They sent me reports regarding his interaction with other dogs and his behavior with pictures of him during playtime. They also monitored his health. Jasper is always excited when I drop him off which means he likes Pooch Hotel.

Have been bringing my chocolate lab here for occasional boarding for the last few months and have had a really wonderful experience. He willingly walks into Pooch Hotel with excitement. I love that I can watch him on the webcam during play time periodically throughout the day with no additional cost. Finally, the staff has seemed to be quite consistent over the last few months, which is nice to see employees’ faces again and again over time. Highly recommend!

What a great experience and our/our son's pup, Scout. It is clear that the staff at Pooch Hotel love and care for dogs and making a puppy's day away from home easy and comfortable. We were so reassured and relaxed by the team's caring and empathy (for Scout and for us). Thank you, Pooch Hotel.

I’ve been using Above & Beyond for the past 2.5 years to walk my two dogs, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! They have a wonderful way with my nervous pups, making them feel comfortable and secure. Not only are they incredibly caring, but they are also super communicative, providing daily updates that always brighten my day. Ana especially is amazing. It’s clear that they genuinely love what they do and care about the well-being of the dogs. If you’re looking for someone reliable and kind to take care of your furry friends, look no further!

We've been using Above and Beyond for years, and they truly live up to their name with their above-and-beyond care for our cats. They are responsible, friendly, and genuinely great with animals. Every visit comes with a thoughtful email, complete with a photo collage and a detailed summary, which always gives us peace of mind while we're away. They've also been incredibly flexible, helping us out with last-minute changes and requests without hesitation. Their service is 100% incredible, and we can't imagine trusting anyone else with our pets. Highly recommended!

Above and Beyond Pet Services are the best. Highly recommend. Ana takes very good care of our two puppies, is professional, and treats the dogs with lots of love and attention. Great company, with great people.

We love working with Sarah, Faith and the team. They helped to get my nervous dog more comfortable with taking walks with folks besides me, and they were able to build rapport with her so quickly. Their responsiveness and flexibility has been fantastic for my schedule as well.

Above & Beyond Pet Services is wonderful. I transitioned my King Charles Cavalier to dog walks about 12 months ago from doggie daycare as I realized he preferred the one on one attention. Sophia has been his primary walker for several months now. She is very attentive to Asher and will always mention in her notes if she notices anything out of the ordinary. I met her and she is very kind and caring. I know that Asher is in good hands and that she is able to adjust to his needs each day which differ based on my schedule with him and if we walked the prior night or earlier in the morning. I know that he looks forward to spending time with her whether they walk or play depending on his needs for the day I know she is giving him lots of love and attention. I am so grateful to have this incredible reliable and professional service for my dog who is my family.

Elise and Lillian walked our aging pup under the senior walk program (2x a day). They were both amazing, and Maya loved all of her walkers from A&B, but these two take the cake! Our pup recently passed, but I can't recommend these two or this company enough! When we're ready for another, they'll be getting a call from us! Thank you so much!

We are so grateful for Above and Beyond and the services they provide. When we adopted our puppy, we never expected it to be so hard to find dog care but once we found them, they have been amazing. The entire company, from the office staff to the walkers, especially Katsumi, treats Quinn like she is their own. They are responsive to any question or special need we have and super professional in every interaction, always going above and beyond.

I have used Above and Beyond for 6 years. Inam leaving Boston for Berkeley, CA, and I wish I coupd.take them with me. Both Ted, the.owner, and Sarah, the mamager of all operations for the business, are exceptional. I have.worked very closely with them, especially Sarah, to make sure my cats' needs were addressed, in two settings - my home, and the hotel I stayed in for the last few months in Boston. I have had my fair share of pet sitters over the past thirty years, and Sarah ranks as among the best - clear and persistent, empathetic, professional, and accommodating. I was very lucky to find and engage A&B, as well as to have been the recipient of their generosoty and their professionalism. Here's hoping I find a.comparable provider in Berkeley!

I've been using Above & Beyond for years, and they've always done a great job taking care of my two cats. I have them bring in my mail, in addition to putting out food and water, and scooping the litter. I get nervous about leaving my cats for trips, but the daily email updates A&B sends with photos of the cats and the services they're doing really puts my mind at ease. They've always been easy to schedule and communicate with. Would highly recommend.

Ted and the team helped immensely when we needed immediate care for a family member's cat. They were so communicative and sent photos and a summary every time they came over! I highly recommend their services.

Toureen is better than we could have hoped for. We can’t thank the caring and attentive staff enough for provide a nurturing environment that makes our dog, Cooper, feel at home. The team goes above and beyond and our dog always comes home relaxed, content and exhausted from all the fun he had. Highly recommended for pet owners seeking a trustworthy and loving pet resort!

Our pup was treated so well by the welcoming staff! He was happy to visit the second time, too (as are all the dogs we see there!). Thank you to the caring staff for taking care of our pup!

Have not used Toureen for a year or more - based on lack of availability etc. Scheduled a visit yesterday - not so long a wait now but someone called me back and said 'current rabies' and I noted yes, I'm working but she continued to ask about rabies, vet etc. I said I'll bring certificate in but she asked for vet again. I asked to speak to a manager and 'manager' came on line. Tory said 5-6 times the same thing and I said I have to get back to work and Tory said based on 'my tone' she was cancelling appointment. Customer service is poor. Toureen used to be better.

Facility is clean and well-maintained. The staff are reliable and friendly - keeping the right balance of efficiency in processing pets in and out, while being genuinely warm to both pets and customers. My own dog has a rapport with the staff and is very comfortable here.

This place is awesome. I called on a Sunday in desperate need of a bath/hair cut for my mini goldendoodle, Daisy. Chris answered the phone and was super accommodating and friendly. The next morning I brought Daisy in for her appointment and the experience was great. Chris and the gal working at the reception desk were totally understanding of how I didn't want Daisy's hair cut too short, but enough to clean her up. They assured me they would call me if they felt they needed to take more off (due to possible matting). The end result was great! Daisy looked fabulous and she knew it too! She had the biggest smile on her face all day! I'm so glad to have discovered Toureen!

I recommend the place is awesome, and the staffers there listen to the facts. Plus the hours are just right. As well as the days they recommend.

We bring our dog Churro to Toureen once a week for daycare and at least one weekend a month for boarding. She absolutely loves Toureen and we always feel so comfortable leaving her there. I can tell the staff loves her like I do! She never wants to leave when we pick her up. So glad we found such a wonderful place to care for our pup when we can’t!

My dogs love it here. They’re very kind and send me pictures too. 💙 wonderful staff.

Had grooming done, excellent job. The facility is really clean and top notch staff

We take our 4 yr old black lab to Toureen regularly for boarding (5-8 times a year). The staff are extremely kind, helpful and care for our dog as if she was their own. Toureen is not cheap, however quality service and surety are well worth the peace of mind. We also use Toureen’s grooming services. There’s nothing better than picking up our happy (and clean) pup at the end of a trip. The butt waggles alone are worth every penny

We are so grateful for Annie's service while we lived in Waltham. The website is so easy to use to request services and I loved the daily emails after her visits. While my cat is skittish of everyone, Annie took the time to make sure she felt comfortable during her visits. She also came over a visit before our first visit to get to know us and our cat. I highly recommend Annie for pet services!

We’ve used Annie’s services twice so far, and will definitely keep doing so! The scheduling is easy to do, and she’s easy to communicate with and so sweet. We loved receiving the updates and photos of our Bob! Leaving our baby has always been so difficult, but it’s easier now knowing he’s always in such good hands :)

Annie was my sitter for my cat Brendan when I temporarily lived in Waltham for work. Annie took care of Brendan on a few last minute urgent occasions. Once I was gone for 2 weeks. She really saved me. She’s a lovely person who truly loves animals. When I returned from being out of town Brendan always looked content and litter box clean. You and your pet will love Annie.

New to the area and needed in-home cat care on fairly short notice. Annie offers a variety of services at reasonable prices - it was easy to request services, get a consult, and schedule what we needed. Annie is fun, thorough, and professional - will definitely use again.

As always fantastic care of my kitties!

We love Wags 4 Walks! Kim and her walker Dave are the best. They are very communicative and SO passionate about dogs. Our dog Tate is fairly anxious and he didn't love the previous playgroup he went to. Dave takes Tate for hikes with a small group of dogs twice a week and he is obsessed! He waits for Dave at the door even on days he's not going hiking. Highly recommend!!!

This is the most amazing dog walking service I have known - and between my current dog Houdini and my former dog Spenser I have used at least five services. Kim and her staff are attuned to the dogs in their care and attentive to their needs. Houdini and I could not be happier! The photo of the energetic and ecstatic Houdini was taken by his Wags4Walks walker.

Kim & Wags have been helping me with my dog walking/sitting needs for close to 15 years. Over that time some of the the walker's faces have changed but the commitment to her clients happiness, both 2 legged and 4, has remained Kim's number one priority. Dog owners are a particular breed of folk and often view their pooches as members of the family. Whether it be dietary & health needs or extra layers to combat the changing seasons, they often put their pets needs ahead of their own. I used to laugh at such people...and then I became one. I was extremely selective of who I could trust my dog, Wyatt, to when the need popped up. Keeping a watchful eye on 80lbs of Boxer energy is a lot to ask of anyone. To be able to do so without compromising the rest of her group was amazing. And if Kim thought his energy would be a bit too much at times, she'd let me know, and offer an alternative solution. She has been willing and able to help with dog's of friends and family as well...flexible, helpful, capable, & loves what she does. Can't ask for much more than that!

We have had the pleasure of knowing Kim and her fab team for over 5 years. Our dog Raffe looks forward to camp each week! Kim and her team treat Raffe like one of their own with love, compassion, and trust! The team helped Raffe socialize with other dogs since he was a puppy. He just loves his friends that he's met at Wags4Walks. There are not enough stars to rate Wags4Walks!

We have had the pleasure of working with Kim and her team since the summer of 2022 and couldn't be happier with the level of care, professionalism, and overall attentiveness. We have a giant breed puppy (Newfoundland) and owe much to Kim's team for the progress we've made with socialization and training. We utilize Kim's team for both walks and pet sitting and have nothing but good things to say about them. Everyone that we've interacted with is a kind and thoughtful dog lover. Wags 4 Walks has our full confidence and continues to exceed our expectations.

Wags4Walks is the best. We've been using them since our puppy was around 7 months old, and it's been amazing how much he's bonded with his walker. Kim, the owner, is incredibly responsive and accommodating, and it's clear that all her employees really love what they do. I know that every time our pup heads out, he'll come home ready for a nap after running around with all his buddies!

I highly recommend Kim and her team for dog walking! My goldendoodle absolutely loves going to the play groups with Wags 4 Walks. When I get home from work, she is always tired and happy! Also, they are incredibly reliable--I know they are taking good care of my dog while she is with them. Once again, highly recommended! I am so glad to have found them!

Kim is absolutely the best, her and her team are amazing with dogs and take such great care of them like they are their own family. Our Stella really came out of her shell thru her experience with Wags 4 Walks, and truly looked forward to her walks every single day. We actually have a video of Stella greeting Shannon at the door, her excitement to be with her and the other dogs is like nothing I've seen before. I highly recommend Kim and her team, the are simply the best around!

Great People and Happy Puppies! Kim runs a fantastic business. The dog walkers are thoughtful, communicative and really love dogs. Because of Kim's business model, she has back up folks so you aren't impacted if someone has to take a prolonged vacation etc. Like daycare, the walker leaves a note and lets you know how your "fur babies" did durning the visit. If something is "off" they contact you directly and immediately (like the time one of our dogs was at the vet and I forgot to tell them). We have used three other dog walking services in the past and Wags4Walks rates up there with the best.

Kim and her team are hands down the best dog walkers we've had for our labs. Our last lab was very active and playgroups tuckered him out. Once he became a tripawd, Kim and her team were there to help him and walk him and give him tons of love. We now have a 1 year old who loves going on playgroups with Kim and her team. They are consummate professionals who love my dogs just as much as we do. We love Wags4Walks!!!

Absolutely love Sam's Pet Patrol! He is extremely knowledgeable about animals and is invested in my pet's wellbeing, always sending me updates about my dog's walks and boarding. He's very consistent and flexible - he's been great about handling last minute scheduling changes. I've used his services for midday walks when I need to go into the office as well as longer term boarding when I need to go out of town. Can't recommend this service enough!

Great decision to use Sam to dog sit while visiting our granddaughter in Boston. Sam took wonderful care of Cody and even picked him up and returned him to our in-town hotel. Second day Cody went off with him happily and was excited to greet him. It made our city visit, with dining out, stress free. So happy we found Sam. I’d highly recommend him.

Sam is an absolute angel and a wonderful trainer and dog sitter! I’ve been having him walk and take care of my dog for a few years, and she is so happy when she sees him that she literally leaps into his arms. He is very thoughtful and attentive to each dog he cares for, and spoils my dog rotten! He’s punctual, reliable, and I can always count on him to be flexible when my work or travel schedule goes awry. For example, when my flight was more h to a four hours delayed, Sam offered to keep my pup overnight at no charge, and allow me to pick her up in the early morning. I have recommended Sam to several friends and neighbors, and they’ve always been very happy with his services as well.

Sam did a fantastic job taking care of my cat. The regular updates with pictures were a thoughtful touch, providing reassurance and a personal touch to the service. It's wonderful to hear that my cat had the chance to socialize with his feline companion. Sam's care evidently extends beyond basic needs, fostering a positive environment for pets. Appreciate the attention to their social well-being! Grateful for his exceptional care and highly recommend his services.

Sam is fabulous. We found him when we were desperate to board our elderly dog while his owner was in the hospital. He was incredibly communicative and reassuring. It was like leaving a child at kindergarten and Sam was as comforting as a kindergarten teacher! The little guy got excellent care, well fed, time outdoors. And Sam has continued to be available even for challenging requests. I recommend him without hesitation. He has been a calm space in some very stressful situations.

Sam does a great job, and I love seeing the videos of our dog playing with the other dogs. They all look like they’re having fun. Thank you Sam!

Try it for yourself! Sam is an outstanding professional dog trainer. My husky tends to be erratic sometimes but Sam had the correct approach, I was baffled by all the knowledge he puts into practice with dogs!

We're so happy to have found Sam's Pet Patrol! We have an older beagle who can be very opinionated about his walks, and Sam is great with him. Sam is great with communication and always sends up good photos, and even the occasional video update! He had been very reliable; Even when we've needed last-minute walks, Sam was up for it!

Sam is truly the best dog sitter! I always know my dog is in the best hands and will have a great time staying with Sam.

Sam is the best!! Our dog loves him and his dog and gets so excited to go to Sam’s house. We appreciate how flexible and helpful Sam is and can’t recommend him more highly! 5/5 stars

My dog and I have no idea what we would do without Nikki and the crew at Modern Mutts! They take wonderful care of my dog each week. Once the van pulls up to pick him up he runs to the door each day to jump in, coming home tired from a day out in the sun playing with his friends. There is plenty of space for all the dogs to run and play, and the photographs I get of him and his friends are priceless. 10/5 stars for this group! (included is last years halloween party where they dressed Charlie up as a Golden Girl.)

Great service! My dog loves going to Modern Mutts! Nikki is amazing and is super accommodating. She makes the process of getting started easy. Paws up for this business!

Truly truly such an amazing team! Our German shepherd Princess looks forward to her days with Modern Mutts. The team at modern are always so welcoming and kind to both myself and Princess. I love the fact that it's outdoors in an open field so that she can run around til her hearts content, granted she's not much of a runner but I'm never worried about Princess when she's with them. Can't recommend a better team than Modern Mutts

Nikki and her team are AMAZING, we love working with them! Our dog has been going for just over a year now and she always greets the team with so much joy, and comes home as happy as can be. Nikki and her team are also excellent communicators, have always been easy to get in touch with and stay in touch with, and are extra mindful about hot/cold days where it's too much for the dogs to go. I can't recommend them highly enough!

I feel so lucky I found Modern Mutts! My Havanese has been going to daycare at Modern Mutts for over a year now, and we absolutely love the service. Nikki and her staff take such great care of our previous pup--he's always excited to see them and they bring him home happy and tired. You couldn't ask for more!

Our dog absolutely adores Modern Mutts, and so do we. She can't wait to hop in the white van and then run around with her pack. Nikki and her team take impeccable care of the dogs, and Nikki's business is both incredibly well organized and also accommodating. We are so happy to support this awesome local woman-owned small business!

I can't say enough about how amazing Nikki and her Modern Mutts team is! They are so sweet, accommodating and truly love the pups. My very high-energy mini goldendoodle, Theo, absolutely LOVES going to doggy daycare and getting to run around outside with his friends! He is always a tired and very happy boy at the end of the day....win win for everyone! : )

Modern Mutts is an outstanding organization which provides loving and fun care for our dogs, as well as fantastic communication and flexible scheduling. Owner Nikki Mutty is incredibly thoughtful, responsive and accommodating. Every member of her team comes to our house with a smile, patience, and kindness. They are genuinely committed to ensuring that the dogs have a good experience (e.g. taking on and off coats in the winter!) and they love sharing bits from their day when we are around to greet them. We feel so fortunate to have this team as part of our daily life.

Nikki’s team is wonderful. They know the dogs so well and manage their needs and personalities attentively. We signed up after observing the play group at our dog park for several weeks and going to play group is now the highlight of daisy’s week!

Nikki Mutty and her staff are the best! They are kind, knowledgable about dogs, reliable and all around good people. They provide pick up and drop off times that are convenient for shorter or longer days to fit schedules that change. Our pooch knows when they will arrive and eagerly waits for them by the door when he returns he is happy and appropriately well exercised. Modern Mutts has made being a pet parent easier and worry free for day care as well as boarding. I highly recommend them!

The absolute best pet care service in Boston! I have used Happy Pet Care for cat visits for years now and they deliver first class service every single time. They took dedicated time to understand my cat's personality and needs before their first visit and I love that I get pictures of him and updates for each visit. Each time I come home I can tell he was very loved and had lots of play time. I truly can't recommend this service enough and am incredibly grateful for them all!

I had the best experience with Happy Pet Care. Mary's team is nothing short of stellar. They are well-priced, reliable, professional, and super flexible. Over the few years that Mary's team walked Annie, I needed help on short notice -- sometime on weekends -- and they always came through for me. I would highly recommend Happy Pet Care!

Their business model goes beyond words. It is genuinely the best furry friend support I could have asked for. I work two jobs and go to school full time. These folks are so thorough with my instructions (shout out to Jen) that I genuinely feel that my dog is safe and in the best set of hands. Anytime I've had an any acute issues, the owner is quick to respond and resolve/talk things through. I appreciate the open communication and quality care Happy Pet Care offers. I could not think about ever going anywhere else! The best business I've worked with thus far.

Happy pet care took care of my cats while I went away for a few days. Mary was very quick at communicating and setting things up smoothly and efficiently. The cat sitters were great, giving me daily reports with pictures which made me feel confident they were very well taken care of. I came back to kitties that were happy and healthy. I trust and highly recommend Happy pet care!

When I lived in Fenway I used to use Rover for all my pet sitting needs. But it was a pricy service and I had to do a lot of research and vetting when choosing someone who would look after our small dog. I moved to Brighton during the pandemic and have since relied on Happy Pet Care for all our walking and sitting needs. Mary, the owner is extremely good at communicating. She is quick to schedule us in even the night before (so sorry Mary). We set up autopay so I don't have to worry about the hassle and with fixed rates every time I know exactly what the cost will be upfront as opposed to Rover which can charge me different rates depending on who is working. Happy Pet Care did increase their prices during the end of the pandemic to adjust for the rise in cost of living. I appreciated the transparency about the cost increase and the sensitivity with which it was communicated to me. I would also like to personally recommend Debra, who has cared for our dog multiple times. I feel that everyone at Happy Pet Care gets to know my dog, and seeing the same people get to know her makes me feel secure that she is in good hands and that she can recognize who is caring for her without the added stress of meeting a stranger. Happy Pet Care is a great small business that we can rely on. I have been recommending their services to new dog owners in the area and I would certainly recommend them to you.

I needed a dog walker in Brighton for our new rescue and came across glowing reviews for Happy Pet Care. They are professional, super flexible, and really care about your pet. Mary is very easy to work with and very responsive. Our first meeting was with Jen and she was great with our dog and asked all the right questions. Sean was our main dog walker and he was so caring with our dog - she is 12 years old and he never got annoyed with how slow she needed to walk. The prices are very reasonable, especially for the level of quality care you get. We will greatly miss their services in the suburbs!

We've been using Happy Pet Care for dog walks 2-3 times per week since we adopted our lab mix puppy (now over a year ago). Mary is always so responsive, kind and flexible - which is so important when you have a dog. There have been multiple occasions where we need to switch days, length of walks, or add on an additional walk. Mary has almost always been able to accommodate us! Our walker is mostly either Sophia, Jen, or Mary herself. My pup can be nervous around new people when her humans aren't around, and they have all been wonderfully patient with our pup. Thanks for helping us care for our fur baby! Updated review: It has now been 2.5 years using Happy Pet Care. We could not ask for a better, more reliable, patient, understanding, and kind dog walking service. We've had Mary, Sophia, Jen, Matt, and Debra walk our pup - and they've all been great. Mary is always very responsive, and easy to work with, even with last minute changes. Additionally, her prices have not gone up, while other services we use for our pup have. The dog walks are high quality with a great price, and a lot of flexibility (because life happens). We're sad that our pup won't have them for her mid day walks while we're at work after we move.

I spent two weeks out of town and Lisa from Happy Pet Care came by my apartment twice a day to look after my rabbit, Auggie. I've never left my bun alone for a such a long time and was initially anxious about the separation, but Lisa was wonderful in every way. First, she had previous experience caring for her own rabbit, which was important to me because rabbits are nonverbal creatures and require someone who is familiar with their signs of illness or distress. Second, she sent sweet text and photos updates of Auggie twice a day, and it was apparent that he was both happy and comfortable in her care. Third, Lisa went above and beyond in caring for my bun--she weathered fierce storms to check on him, doted on him with his favorite salad greens, arranged a last-minute emergency visit when my flight home was delayed, and showered him with so much affection that not once did I worry about Auggie during the two weeks that I was gone. Can't recommend Happy Pet Care enough, and Ms. Lisa especially! She's my go-to gal from here on out whenever I'm heading out of town.

We have been using Happy Pet Care for about two years now and we could not be happier with the thoughtful, thorough care they have provided for our two dogs and two cats over this time. We have relied on Mary and her staff for individual walks, taxis, and cat sitting. We simply would not be able to manage our lives without Happy Pet Care. Mary is wonderfully responsive and always works hard to accommodate our requests, even when we have to make them at the last minute due to unforeseen changes. Mary's staff, particularly Jen and Renee, have always been nothing short of amazing. Renee in particular always goes so far above and beyond, and she treats all our pets like they were her own. We consider ourselves and our pets to be very lucky to have connected with Mary and her staff.

We've had a wonderful experience with Mary, Jen, Nez, and the rest of the Happy Pet Care team - they've done a great job taking care of our dog for weekly walks. They are also very accommodating for last minute changes, and we trust them completely with both our dog and access to our house. Mary is very responsive and helpful. Definitely recommend!

We leave our dog with Jeremy all of the time, and he is wonderful. I watch my dog very carefully when we bring her over, and you can tell that she is very happy to see him, to be in his home, and to be with him. (If course she gets sad when we go to leave without her, but nothing to be done sbout that!) He follows all of the instructions that we leave with him, and she is always in great shape when we pick her up. (No stomach problems or coughing when we get her home). Jeremy clearly loves the dogs he takes care of, is an easy guy to work with, and has a great fenced in yard. We recommend him whole heartedly.
