Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
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.
Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
Emily and Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one. We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)! She was responsible, self sufficient and very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dog ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip. She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away. She was extremely clean and followed our household routine. And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe! Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met. I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!
Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose. Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes. They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit. They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day. They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety. We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard. He was so happy! No problems were encountered with the house. Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose. The house was spotless when we returned. Everything in proper order, better than we left it. We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!
Alia is a wonderful furbaby sitter and also a wonderful person. It is our privilege to have her for the 3rd time. She keeps us informed, our dogs love her, and she even cooked dinner and left it for us. The house was perfect when she left.
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 can't recommend Best Friends Pet Hotel in Sudbury highly enough. My dog has been going there regularly, and the transformation has been incredible. Shes become so much more confident around people and is having an absolute blast playing with the other dogs. Heidi and her staff are consistently friendly, attentive, and genuinely cares about each pet’s well-being. I’ve never encountered any issues, and it’s clear that they prioritize making every pet feel comfortable and happy. It’s a relief to know my dog is in such good hands. Thank you Heidi and your amazing crew, see you next week!
Sharra has been grooming my dogs for many years. She is incredibly good with them. They always look beautiful after their bath and cut.
We are extremely happy with the services provided by Best Friends. We have been bringing our dog, Abbey since she was puppy. We use the Doggy Day Camp, Grooming services and Boarding. Everyone at Best Friends are polite and very kind to Abbey. We use their boarding service many times during a year.
We have been going here for about a year and my doodle loves it. The staff is super caring and Zeus enjoys his time there. Heidi and Katie are wonderful and really care about the fur campers. Grooming is readily available and always with a good outcome. Highly recommend!
Our 2 dogs, Ace & Cookie love Best Friends in Sudbury! We have used them for boarding & grooming. The staff does such an amazing job taking care of our pets while we are away. Our kids love to check up on them through their petcam during the play group sessions. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
The grooming service my dog Luna received was excellent. It really helped lesson the shedding (yellow Lab)! Luna was calm and happy to return to the friendly groomers.
Best Friends is very clean, organized and friendly. Our elderly dog Peanut has boarded there since he was a puppy. He is always happy there and treated with such kindness and love. The grooming services are excellent as well!
My pup comes home from day camp happy and tired, and I feel better having a place for her to go when I can’t be at home with her during the work day. Staff are great and are always so welcoming to my dog when we arrive.
I can’t stop raving about Best Friends, Sudbury, and if my pup, Henri, could talk, he’d be saying “WOOF, WOOF!” in total agreement. Henri loves going to the Doggy Day Camp and seeing all his human and canine BFFs, and I love watching them on the cam as much as possible. Credit goes to the outstanding and caring staff of Heidi, Shayene, Katie and Jeff, who make it a pleasant environment and treat the dogs as if their own. I highly recommend Best Friends to anyone considering their services. Sylvia and Henri (Woof, Woof!)
My pups always come home tired and happy after a stay with Best Friends! They are healthy and, thanks to the on-site grooming facilities, they look much better coming home than going in! Given that I’m often exhausted after a trip, I kind of think I need to book myself a stay at Best Friends!
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!
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.
2 years ago we welcomed a new dog into our family. Since then It has been more work than I had planned. Due to our work schedule we needed someone to take Waggs for a walk once to twice a day and some occasional pet sitting. Through a family recommendation we hired Shivaun Pryor. She has been wonderful over the past 2 years. She is always on time for her walks and is a wonderful person and take care and has a love for Waggs!
Shivaun has taken care of our dogs and cats for over 15 years. We have never looked elsewhere because of her reliability, service, and reasonable fees. She has done daily dog walks during the weeks through the lives of two boxers and cared for dogs and cats while we have been gone on vacation or visiting family. Whenever we had emergency travel she would step up and do whatever we needed. I have never had a concern with her in our house or taking care of our pets. In addition to pet care, she has run errands for us when needed, picked up or dropped off packages, etc. She has done house cleaning for us and we have always been happy with the results. Finding someone as reliable as Shivaun has certainly made our life easier and I highly recommend her services to you.
Shivaun has been been pet sitting for my cats, multiple times a year, for over 8 years. She also waters the plants and brings in the mail. We never had any issues. She is very responsible and responsive. She even takes pictures of our cats, and send them to us, when we are on long vacations (she knows we miss them), and we really appreciate that gesture.
Shivaun is great and extremely reliable. I have two dogs, an 80 lb shephard mix and a 50 lb hound mix. She walks each separately twice a week. She always checks ahead to confirm if I want her to come on holidays.
Shivaun has been walking my Sheltie for many years. She is extremely reliable, flexible and trustworthy. I would recommend her for your dog walking needs.
Mary took away all of our anxiety about leaving our three month old puppy alone. In December we got the first puppy of our lifetimes and, being retired, we stayed at home for three months doting on her. When friends came to meet Beazie, we observed that she was timid and it took her a while to become comfortable with each new person. We dreaded the inevitable time when we would both have to be away from the house and leave her in the care of someone else. Mary volunteered to come for a meet and greet prior to our first pet sitting appointment. She requested that we run through Beazie’s entire potty routine from beginning to end to accustom Beazie to her presence. Mary instinctively knew how to approach Beazie in a way that helped her become more at ease. She brought treats and a special toy which continues to be her favorite as she approaches her first birthday. After only a few minutes, Beazie was settled in her lap without fear and Mary’s love of animals was clearly on display. Her practical knowledge of animals and their behavior has been incredibly valuable as we have never raised a dog. Mary is friendly, trustworthy, flexible and dependable. We never worry a minute when we are away from the house. We don’t know what we would do without Mary. Neither does Beazie!
I can't say enough good things about Mary Littlefield who takes care of our very timid cat when we travel, which we do often. Miss Violet usually streaks upstairs when she hears a car pull into the driveway, and there she keeps watch from the top step, expecting pillage and mayhem and the demise of us all .... unless it's Mary. Then she comes downstairs quickly and purrs loudly while directing long, meaningful glances toward her sitter. She's utterly shameless in her admiration for Mary. We try to ignore Miss Violet's outlandish behaviour, but sometimes wonder if we should spend more time at home -- put a little damper on this foolish infatuation. There was a crisis three years ago when Miss Violet swallowed a long string, and we weren't due back for another week. Mary handled the situation beautifully and kept us abreast of what was going on before and after the procedure to remove it. (Thanks, Mary!) Mary has apologized for endearing herself so to Miss Vi, and we forgive her wholeheartedly. She's become indispensable to our gadabout family. I can't recommend Mary Littlefield highly enough to anyone who travels and needs to leave a shy kitty at home.
Mary has provided top quality and loving care for both my dog and cat. Her many years of experience she has in the pet care industry comes through in the care she gives. She’s always stepped in to help with any last minute situation I’ve found myself in who’s is invaluable!
We absolutely love WDYD! They are so friendly and provide such excellent care to the pups in their care. We recently moved closer, and are so excited about being on a weekly schedule with them. In our experience with other local daycares, we have found WDYD to be much friendlier, caring, and genuine. I eagerly recommend this business to anyone looking!! Thank you, Cindy and team, we are so grateful! (Pic of a zonked pup after a great day of playing :) )
They took my Frenchie Bogey last minute after a messy hike on a hot morning. Not only did they do an amazing job with his grooming, but they even managed to freshen up his breath. Highly recommend! Bonus they are a BBB Member!
Love this dog care center especially with no crates! Dogs have wide open rooms, A/C, and beds for naps and overnights. Super caring, fun, accommodating, clean, comfortable roomy play spaces for our pups! The staff is very attentive to our little loves. They have been so reliable and I don’t know what I’d do without them. Toby’s turning into a super social puppy!
Laura is so good grooming my difficult dog. He’s been happy with her. Professional clean organized and safe.
Great spot to board your doggo. Our corgi loves it and their grooming services are great especially before we pick her up!
Passing by I saw your sign We dig your dog and then saw Grooming, (I hadn’t checked out your facility as I had been in search of a new groomer since LC had closed) so glad I did because that was when I read Laura was there!!! She was always so fantastic with my dog Tucker. I got an appointment with her the very next day. Tucker was treated very well as he can be a handful, but Laura always knows how to handle him. Your facility is beautiful, staff working there are super friendly and I will definitely recommend you to everyone!!!
We Dig Your Dog is the best dog daycare/boarding/grooming facility my dog has been apart of. They truly care for your dog, have many different areas for them to play or rest, and are flexible to fit your dog's needs. Their prices are more than reasonable for never crating dogs, even during boarding. They always have things to say about my dog at the end of the dog and have been understanding and kind when my dog has had a cranky day or made a mistake. They are also so accommodating to my ever-changing schedule and last minute changes. Since moving to Massachusetts, We Dig Your Dog has been one of the best things to happen to both my dog and I, and I can't extend my gratitude enough :)
We visit to have Matt, from Nails by Matt, clip our dogs paws every 6 weeks. He does a fantastic job with our little guy. Highly recommend!
We Dig you dog is The best. Our small dog Cookie is well taken care when boarding and comes home happy. Star is relaxed and can do. Grooming at We Dig your Dog is simply THE BEST. Laura is amazing.
Such an amazing place. Setting up or moving around appointments is no issue with the manager Anne. Laura goes the extra mile to ensure both the dog and the customer have an amazing grooming experience. 5 stars!
Shae (Norwegian Elk Hound) is traditionally skittish around new people, but once you’re in your clan she’s your BFF. They took the time to get to know her and make her comfortable and she had a fantastic time while she was there. The team is great and is always willing to give you an update when you call. 10/10 Shae can’t wait for her next stay
Southboro Kennels is absolutely amazing, and I wish I could give them more than 5 stars. really a wonderful family owned small business. We had never boarded our two corgi puppies before, or left them for a more than a weekend, but we went to Hawaii for 14 days and kept our pups with them the entire time. Southboro Kennels was incredibly knowledgeable about all breeds in terms of personality and how to care best for them. They absolutely went the extra mile to make both our dogs and us feel comfortable while we were gone. I can definitely tell both dogs had an awesome time there, and our younger one even seems more social with other dogs since coming home. Will be boarding there for all our future needs!
I'm so happy I found this place! I have a fear reactive corso who takes a while to warm up to new people (once he does he's the biggest softy). This makes finding boarding for him very difficult. Everyone at Southborough Kennels was amazing with him! They took the proper steps to slowly get him comfortable with the facility as well as all the staff he would come in contact with. They were so patient, understanding and professional! He's only spent a handful of days here so far, but I can tell he's already happy to see the staff and to get out into the yard and play ball.
Boarded my two large breed dogs here, one of which is an unfixed female under a year old. They kept them together and not in group sessions because of the female's status (which I wanted anyway). They were also receptive about my concerns about bloat and to not have any of their play sessions for at least an hour after they had eaten. I feel confident about leaving them there again.
Our mini-poodle, Teddy LOVES it here! We have left him here for a week at a time and at pick up he greets the staff with the same eagerness as us! Great that the dogs get a private run, and we add two play times daily. Bath on his way out is a plus - today he was quite.ready for the 4th of July 😀 …
It is a great spot for our dog to stay and be treated well. We have been long timed customers and we are on our next generation of dogs as guests. They always race to go in and are tail wagging when they come out. Mitchell, Amanda and Zach are dog people and hire a great team. Highly recommend them.
This place not only watches your dogs, they care for them. We picked up our anxious dog after her first overnight ever and she was calm and happy, no excessive energy or fear. Both our dogs love it here.
I had my kitten boarded here for 5 days last week and they took such good care of him! Everyone there is extremely nice and helpful. I was nervous about having to leave my kitten behind for several days, but he was in great hands and given lots of love and care. I will definitely continue taking my pets here when I am out of town.
We have been coming here for years. They have always been fantastic, trustworthy consistent. The staff have always been attentive, caring, and really love being with the animals. The runs (for the dogs) are indoor/outdoor and fairly large. Our dog Jesse seems to enjoy it, he comes at least twice a year for extended vacations. We also boarded our cat Loki here (when she was still around) We have been coming here since 2013 and will continue. I highly recommend Southboro Kennels! Family owned, and great care for your dogs and cats! Ps cash or check, no credit cards FYI.
This is hands down the best kennel I have ever taken my dogs to. The staff are so friendly and helpful and truly cared for my dogs while they were there. They knew my dogs so well by the time they went home! I highly recommend Southboro Kennels and they will be my go-to moving forward.
Michael has done a wonderful dog taking care of our dog Penny for the past 5 years. He provides in home care at his home, as well as walks at our house when needed. Every time, my dog gets so excited to see him. He sends pictures and updates while we are away. We are so fortunate to have such a responsible and kind caretaker for our pup while we are away.
Mike has been my pet sitter for 5 years and has provided consistently excellent service the whole time. He visits my furry friends when I am out of town and provides them with fresh food and milk daily. He also sends me a little video of them each day! When I have needed help with extra things (bringing in packages, watering plants), he has done those things as well. He is reliable, kind, and very good with animals. My little guys love him. Mike has also done great with improvising to handle unexpected situations (e.g. I was out of town longer than expected and hadn't left extra pet food). I trust him fully. I have high standards for pet care and Mike exceeds them every time. I recommend him without reservation - as do my pets!
Mike has been walking my dog for about 2 years now, and we couldn't be happier with him. He is flexible, and reliable. When I can't be home to walk my dog, I don't worry because I know I can depend on Mike. After each walk he will always send me an update on how the walk went. He also does nice little things like taking in mail and packages etc. I highly recommend Happy Dog.
I have been working with Michael and Marcia for close to 2 years and I can't emphasis how much I appreciate them. I feel incredibly lucky that I found such trustworthy, kind, and responsible walkers for my dog Gus, who absolutely LOVES Michael and Marcia. I've had my fair share of unreliable walkers, so when I started working with Happy Dog, all my worries and anxiety over whether or not Gus is being well taken care of went away. They are so considerate and always willing to help out when they can. I also really appreciate the text/picture updates after walks. Highly recommend Happy Dog!
Mike has been walking and occasionally boarding our dog for about 6 years now. He even conveniently takes her to get groomed once per month for us! He's extremely reliable, trustworthy and affordable. I couldn't ask for a better person to take care of our dog for us and am very grateful for his services :)
Mike and Marcia have been walking Rosie for the past 2.5 years. Rosie loves them and her week day walks, it’s been the highlight of her day. They’ve done a great job of walking and entertaining her, socializing her to other dogs, and establishing a routine at a critical time of her puppy development. I’m really happy that Rosie’s bond with Mike and Marcia is so strong, it makes planning for upcoming weeks or future trips easier. I highly recommend Happy Dog Belmont to anyone who is looking for a dog walking / cat sitting service with animal compassion and integrity.
We LOVE Happy Dog! When we moved to Belmont 6 years ago, I was very worried about finding a reliable & trustworthy person, that also loved our high maintenance frenchie who would care for her during the work week. Michael came to my house to meet our dog, and I seriously grilled him (we joke about this now). Thankfully, I didn’t scare Michael away & he agreed to take care of our Birkin GiGi. The bond that Birkin has with Marcia & Michael melts my heart. One of the highlights of my day is checking Happy Dog’s facebook posts, cannot get enough of the adorable dog photos. My dog is sick often, Marcia and Michael text to check in on Birkin. Marcia & Michael always make sure to stock everyone’s favorite treats! It’s easy to see that this is not just a job for them, they truly LOVE the animals that they care for. I cannot recommend Happy Dog enough!
Mike and Marcia have taken care of both of our dogs, since 2006. They take our current dog, Lucy, on daily walks, which includes some socialization with other dogs - a big deal, since our dog is very much an only child. And we also board Lucy overnight with them, sometimes for weekends and occasionally when we take long trips away. They even helped us when our previous dog recovered from surgery, and provided appropriate and loving care during a lengthy recovery. We trust them completely and do not hesitate to recommend them.
I have known Mike for over a decade. I have entrusted him to care for two beloved chocolate labradors, both rescue dogs. The key word is trust. I trust him implicitly that he will do the right thing for my pets in any given situation. This trust is earned and based on years of integrity, dependability, professionalism, empathy, and compassion. When we got to the stage of caring for a 100lb geriatric dog, Mike stepped up and helped us get through various canine health issues that many times were not trivial. It would have been impossible to have provided quality end of life care without Mike. Mike can “read” dogs and will make good decisions about how the dog is doing and what will work or not work in a given situation. My current labrador is very sweet but has triggers that can lead to bad behavior. Shortly after getting her Mike helped me figure out her triggers and what situations were doable and what was a no go for her. Mike has taken care of my dogs at my house during travel. The last trip, within an hour of him arriving he sent me a picture of my puppy belly up on the couch wanting belly rubs from Mike. She loves and trust him. That is everything to me. I highly recommend Mike and HappyDog.
Mike and Marcia are the absolute BEST! They have been taking care of my dog, Mali, for her whole life-she's now 15-and have made a huge difference in her quality of life. They are responsive, caring, flexible, and responsible. The BEST dogwalkers, dogsitters in the area! I highly recommend them.
Walden Pets does an amazing job with my high energy, social dog. The service that works well for us is group trail hikes, because my dog loves running off leash on trails and playing with other dogs (and people). He has a lot of energy. Walden Pets walkers pick up a couple or a few dogs and bring them on local trails, and my dog gets a lot of socialization and exercise. We previously did full-day dog daycare, and switched over to 2 group hikes per day with Walden Pets, and I’m so happy it’s working out! My dog has so much fun and comes home happy and tired. I’m so happy he gets to spend time outdoors. I think Walden Pets is the best dog care option in this area. The walkers are amazing… super detailed, trustworthy and hilarious. They provide photos and reports after each visit and these reports and photos make me so happy and laugh out loud. I feel my dog is in very good hands with Walden Pets. The walkers also feed him!
I've been a client of Walden Pet for 5 years now and they are wonderful! They take care of my cat Goose whenever I am away and he LOVES it when they show up. They feed him and take care of his litter box exactly as I ask and they play with him and give him lots of affection every time they see him. I love getting the photos of Goose and a sweet report for each visit. I highly recommend Walden Pet!
Walden Pet is great! My boys look forward to their daily outings with their usual walkers, Peter and Jill. I get a report card update, photos and even video clips after each visit on the phone app. The walkers make me feel like they love my boys as much as I do. I use Walden Pet for vacation pet care too, for both my dogs and cats (and fish!). There is no bigger comfort than knowing your fur family is being well cared for when you can’t be there personally. I’ve been using their services for years and highly recommend them. The job Julie and her team does is terrific.
We have a three-year-old Dutch spaniel named Tai-San. He’s an energetic dog who loves walking in the woods and exploring different scents. For his regular one-hour off-leash trail walks, we use Walden Pet. Walden Pet offers a variety of walking styles and durations, and their booking app is easy to use. Over almost two years, Tai-San has been walked by several different dog walkers. While each walker has their own approach, they are all dog lovers, and Tai-San loves them all. Before each walk, we usually receive a notification about the walker’s arrival time. Afterward, we get an activity report that includes locations, bathroom breaks, cute pictures, and fun comments. These trail walks have also helped Tai-San improve his social skills and expand his circle of furry friends in the neighborhood.
We highly recommend Walden Pet!! We have used them for the past 2 years to walk our friendly lab. Just as important as the exercise, our dog craves affection and the staff goes above and beyond to give her as much attention as our family does. They are professional, reliable and ever accommodating. It is a huge relief to know our beloved dog is getting top notch care when we can’t be with her. Julie and her walkers are extraordinary! It’s nice to work with a company that delivers more than they need to.
Our family has relied on Walden Pet as our "dog walker" for the last ten years straight. Their staff is polite and responsive, and their dog walkers are amazing - they care for and love your pet as if it was their own, and they are always unfailingly careful with your pet and property. Even our skittish housecat comes to say hi and get a scratch when their walker comes by each day to walk our dog. I literally don't have a single bad thing to say about Walden Pet, and we recommend them to all of our friends when asked.
Dogs are in good hands with Walden Pets! We have used Walden Pets over the last ten years and cannot praise them enough. From elderly dogs, to puppies, to rescues, and dogs with “issues”, Walden Pets has been able to handle them professionally , with care and compassion. The owner Julie is wonderful and very responsible in the intake process with dogs, and her staff have all been so kind with our dogs. They are truly dog people who understand varying dog personalities. This is a trustworthy company and I am extremely grateful for them as Walden Pets has helped me be able to give our dogs happy lives. If you’re looking for a pet sitting company, I highly recommend Walden Pets. They’re app is also very easy to use for scheduling and communication.
We were really happy with Walden Pets. We had never used dog walkers before so we were a little nervous (mostly because of our dogs) but they were great! After the walk they reported back how the walk went. We loved getting the reports and especially the pictures. We will definitely use them again and highly recommend.
Would give 10 stars! Our pup loves walks and trail romps with the Walden crew and I love getting pics and an update on their day. They even charmed our prickly cat, who hates everyone, except apparently Walden cat sitters. (What is their secret? ) Reliable, easy to work with, great communication. They love pets!
We use Walden Pet to walk out dog Henry, and I can't say enough good things about them! Every person we've encountered has been professional, friendly--and most importantly--takes excellent care of our pup. We love that they take him on trails and he gets socialized with other dogs, and it's so great that they send you a message and photos from every walk. We are SO particular about who we entrust with Henry, and this company is WONDERFUL!!
I had a hard time finding someone to take care of my cat (Luna), before my vacation. I was calling and texting people and they never answered back. Also I was very concerned about leaving Luna alone. Until i found “Better Way Pet Sitting Service”. They were amazing! From the begging to the end, they were very professional, I was very satisfied with the services provided. They took very good care of Luna and that makes me feel comfortable knowing that someone was looking after her everyday. I recommend “ Better Way Pet Sitting Service”. You will have peace of mind knowing that, good people will be looking after your beloved pets.
We used A Better Way for the first time (twice!) in August and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reputable pet sitter. We recently took in a senior cat and needed someone to look after him during a couple trips we had planned. They took amazing care of him and we came home to a very happy and healthy cat both times. Michele (the owner) and Liz are super professional and loving pet sitters, who really go above and beyond to make sure your pet gets everything they need while you’re away. They do the basics like feeding and scooping litter; but also gave him daily brushing, played with him, and gave him lots of affection. They leave a daily report saying what they did and how our cat Nick was doing every day, which are really nice to read when you get home, and always responded promptly when we texted asking how things are going. They also took amazing care of our potted outdoor plants and 4 newly planted trees, in addition to taking in our mail every day and putting the trash and recycling on the curb for trash pickup. I felt much more relaxed knowing our cat and house were in good hands while we were away. I can’t recommend them enough!
I cannot say enough about Wendi and the ladies. They are all super. I have been a client for over 15 years with all my dogs. Wendi even stayed with me when I had to put my little Murphy down. You don't see that kind of service from many places today. My pets are like their own pets.
Best pet sitting in the area! They have a meeting with you to walk through your home as a new client to determine all of your pet's needs. Billing is sent to your email (which I really appreciate it). They provide detailed notes for every day they visit with pre-maid sheets that, to me, are truly wonderful to come home to. :D Best of all is their service and compassionate care. We had a family emergency recently, and Better Way Pet Sitting jumped in and was able to look after our cats. It was truly valuable to have a service we trusted when we needed it. So grateful to have access to them now and into the future!
The most important aspect of a pet care company is reliability, which you will get 100% with ABW. I used them frequently when I had knee surgery and couldn't walk my puppy, and continued with their services for the convenience of being able to stay at work through lunch. They always come exactly when they said they will and I love how they leave me notes after each visit! My pups were well taken care of!
I have been using ABW pet sitting service for almost 10 years. Wendi and her staff of pet sitters are top notch! I trust them completely with my dog, Brady which gives me great peace of mind while I am away or out for the day. I love the notes they leave describing the fun they had and providing important information about my dog. I truly feel like they really care about and love the pets they visit. They have become like a family to us. They are ALWAYS dependable, reliable, helpful, accommodating and above all they treat our dog so well. Wendi is highly selective when hiring pet sitters so I never worry if I have someone new. They are simply THE BEST!!
ABW is outstanding! The staff accommodates all types pets with their unique personalities & needs. Wendi, Michele, & Leslie have taken care of our diabetic older cats who needed injections 2 times a day and our current "scaredy cats" who now come out to see their care takers in our absence. The piece of mind is priceless, knowing our four footed family members can be well taken care of in their own home. Thank you ABW for 14 great years of service & care!
I have been using ABW for almost 5 years for my dogs and they have been nothing short of fantastic. In the beginning of looking for someone to take my dogs out in the middle of the day while I was at work, I was not super comfortable with someone being in my house while I wasn’t home let alone with my dogs! As soon as I met with Michele I felt at ease and you can tell both she and the great pet walkers/sitters at ABW instantly fall in love with your dogs (almost) as much as you are! Now I feel a sense of comfort knowing that ABW will be at my house because my dogs love them, they’re incredibly reliable and responsive. I’d be lost without the . I tell anyone I meet that has a dog that they should reach out to ABW for their pet sitting/walking needs!
We switched to ABW from another walker and we couldn't be happier! Scheduling is easy, price is fair and the they provide excellent, professional service. We have a fairly consistent walker who absolutely loves our dog and it makes me feel good to know he is getting love when she comes. Even when we do get someone else, he is still in good hands and he's loved everyone who has come. The additional touches like brining packages in and rolling the trash cans back to their spot on trash day really make the whole package so worth it!
A Better Way Pet Sitting Services is the absolute best. Wendi and her team have been taking care of my dog, Bentley for over 10 years. Wendi and her team provide the epitome of customer service. They have gone above and beyond to accommodate changing schedules on very short notice. More importantly, they are the most nurturing, caring, and trustworthy professional dog walkers. I trust them wholeheartedly to take the very best care of Bentley. Each visit is dedicated Bentley time (& he soaks it all up). I can tell by the cute yet very informative “Bentley visit reports” that Bentley is well taken care of and had a great time on every visit. Bentley’s walkers know him so well, they can also tell if he is perhaps feeling under the weather. They keep me informed via the visit reports and/or by calling me. I have seen Bentley with his dog walkers. It is heartwarming to see the mutual love between them. Bentley gets so excited to see and spend time with them. It is comforting to know that Bentley is in great hands and care with A Better Way. Wendi and her team treat and love Bentley as part of their family. There is no better way than A Better Way for taking care of your pets/loved ones.
