Pet Sitters in Bellevue, MD

We brought our 4 year old German shepherd/ husky for a last minute stay. They were extremely accommodating, provided photos, a report card and provided exceptional care to our baby. He got to go for a nature walk, have some yard time and play in the pool which is his favorite activity in the world! Staff was extremely lovely and we can’t wait to come back!! Photo is after pick up! He’s usually awake in the car!

I was a little apprehensive about taking my two dogs to a kennel. They are 5 and 7 years old and normally they stay at home with a sitter when we go away. My dogs made out fine and were very happy when we picked them up after a 14 day stay. I will certainly take them back to Golden Wood when we go on our next trip!

The staff is very nice and the care they give is individualized to the pet. My animals are always happy and relaxed when I pick them up. The facility has been modernized and is very clean and attractive.

It's hard to have someone else watch your pets but I really trust Golden Wood. Their communication is amazing and it's so wonderful to be able to book online. My dog and my cat have both stayed at Golden Wood and I will continue to bring them here when I go out of town. The staff is very helpful and I am so happy knowing my pets are in good hands!

Golden Wood is a great place to leave your pet while you are on vacation. We have a Chesapeake Bay Retriever, and she is very lovable. They have a wonderful staff, and they just love when Abigail smiles at them. We really get to enjoy our vacation knowing that they are taking great care of our Abigail while we are away. Golden Wood definitely gets 5 stars and hands down the best place to leave your pets. I will highly recommend them to anyone who asks where to leave their pets. #1goldenwood kennels is the BEST

We have used Golden Wood Kennels numerous times for our two dogs. We love the staff and our dogs love the staff, which is the most important thing. Love getting pics of their snuggle time and we always feel comfortable boarding them there, knowing they will be safe, comfortable and most of all LOVED!!!!

Kelley R. gave our pup her first haircut and it is adorable! Our pup doesn't have her confidence yet with new situations and people and this made me nervous leaving her for grooming. But I felt she was safe at Golden Wood and obviously Kelley was able to keep her calm and gave her an awesome haircut. We will be back.

Kelley always does a fantastic job grooming our dogs. They leave looking beautiful and happy. Our boy Mateo says 4 paws up!

Would highly recommend Golden Wood in Oxford for a wonderful home away from home! Very caring, and loved receiving the daily pics of my Zazel.

Goldenwood was perfect! Daily updates on Bella with pictures and she came home happy, healthy and clean!

Charley, my Havanese, has stayed with Top of the Bay while I was hospitalized and received the best of care. They have done a great job with his grooming. I am very pleased with Greg and his staff.

This is a great place to take your pet for lodging. My dog has stayed here two different times and comes home happy and healthy. He got groomed here as well and the groomer did a great job! Highly recommend this place!

This place used to be "Top of the Bay"Now it is rundown and shabby looking, Overpriced,And now they exploit dogs with these ridiculous dog shows,And obedience training,Which is done cruelly,Skip this place and go to Keverton or Goldenwood

They take care of the dogs, however the place is run down and disorganized! The kennels are clean, but the facilities need a really good cleaning & overall makeover! The layout is so dysfunctional it causes the employees to spend so much time running in circles! This place needs to be torn down & built over to be functional & run properly & smoothly!

We have been using Top of the Bay for years and love the staff! Extremely friendly and I love that the owner lives on site so the animals are never alone. My English Mastiff can be very timid - the first two times I practically had to drag him in - by the 3rd time his tail wags, he is excited, and walks right on in. The only draw back is the appearance, the place is a little outdated - not a fancy dog spa. But personally, I care more about the staff and how they treat the animals.

They were very accommodating. I drove in from out of town and they saw me when I got in. They took great care of my cat, Athena, and dog, Zeus. My pets did NOT want to leave. Plus, they had so much fun that they slept the entire ride home, which was about an hour and a half. They did not have too much energy the next day either. Lol! I go to St. Michael's about 10 times a year so I will be stopping back at Top of the Bay Pet Lodge again.

Love the team here. Great for boarding, and also training. The staff really cares about your dog - it's good to know your buddy is being cared in great manner. Will continue to use this nice place.

We boarded our 2 three year old beagles here for 4 days. The place is very dated, but it appears safe. They use a two gate system to keep dogs in, which was our main concern given the nature of beagles. The reason for my review is for the extremely poor, rushed nail trimming job they did on one of our beagles. We called over 5 hours before pickup to state that we would arrive around 5-5:30PM to pickup our dogs; we arrived at 5:20PM. When we walked in, they indicated that they had forgotten to clip our one dogs toes. They said they would do it right then. They did, and the $20 nail trim took all of about 2 mins. This was shocking to me, as our vet and normal groomer usually take much longer, but nonetheless we paid our bill and left. About 10 mins later down the road we noticed blood everywhere on my wife's shirt, front seat, and dash. Four nails, one on each of her paws were bleeding very heavily. It was not a small drop of blood, but a very noticeable and alarming amount. They were cut way, way too short. We live close by and immediately called the pet lodge to notify them of what was going on, and ask what we needed to do. Their comment to my wife was, "this happens here all the time, just put some baking soda on them or anything startchy." They did not offer any apology whatsoever, and frankly acted surprised that we would call them with such a small issue as having a dog with 4 profusely bleeding toe nails. It is also not common with professional nail trimming, and it has never happened at any point in the past when we have had them done at our vets office or normal groomer. We have always paid someone to do it because we understood how incredibly painful it is for them to get cut too short. After this treatment we could never trust them to provide any service for our dogs, and frankly have serious concerns for their grooming ability and judgment. It would be one thing if it was one nail, and they apologized; dogs can move, I get it. This, however, was a botched rushed job that resulted in extreme pain for the dog, 4 bloody toenails, blood all over my car, and an excuse that "it happens all the time."

They do a great job grooming my fluffy corgi. And believe me, there's a ton of fluff to groom. My pup is always excited to go visit and is always happy and ready when I pick him up. Would definitely recommend.

Yesterday I took my little Shitzu Poo to Top of the Bay for grooming. I didnt realize how scruffy Rugby was until they bought out Rugby after grooming...I now have a show dog ! I was so excited. They not only made my dog beautiful, the groomer gave me so much info on this breed of dog without me even asking. I'm just so impressed with Top of the Bay and their staff.

I never thought the day would ever come when I could comfortably leave my corgi at home when we had to go away. Then I met Ashley! She is amazing with my Skye, and has the patience and knowledge to turn a corgi with separation anxiety into a loyal puppy who loves and trusts her. Skye gets SO EXCITED when Ashley walks into the house! And Ashley excels at communication, sending daily photos and reports to put my mind at ease. Skye has so much fun with her – when we returned home, she was happy to see us, but I could tell she was still wondering where Ashley went! Thank you so much Ashley for taking such good care of my dog.

Ashley is amazing! As you can see from the pics she sent below, my dogs Tito and Ringo absolutely love her and had a blast. She did a wonderful job caring for them for a week, which is no easy feat with two border collies and a muddy yard. So much so, we look forward to working with her as a trainer too. I highly recommend Ashley and feel lucky to have found her.

Ashley was amazing with my dogs. Even gave my newf a nickname that we use still! She was always on time and kept me posted on how my boys were and sent pics sometimes! Definitely a great person to take care of any animal!!!

We were going away for three days and didn’t have anyone to come feed our senior dog and our cat. Found Ashley from a Facebook group. I am so happy we found her. She was amazing with our senior dog. I am really picky about how he is taken care of and she was perfect. Can’t recommend her enough. If you need someone definitely give her a call.

Ashley is amazing with our small dog. We are not comfortable leaving our dog with any kennel but Ashley makes us feel at ease! Will continue to use her in the future!

We have had the opportunity to get to know Ashley and her supportive crew for our golden doodle Sox. I must say that when we leave Sox behind, we are never riddled with the usual guilt ("he's going to miss us so much, etc"). We literally drop him off and he jauntily trots right up to Ashley's front door without a look at us as we depart. He's super happy there, and that tells us that Ashley is providing a safe and happy place for our little guy. Totally recommend!

Ashley is absolutely amazing with our yellow lab rescue dog, H. New environments can be stressful for H, but Ashley makes her literally feel right at home. Ashley sends us pictures of H curled up and sleeping on the couch or snuggled next to the nearest human, just like she would be at home. Having a reliable pet sitter that our dog loves gives us peace of mind when we travel and we are so grateful to have Ashley nearby.

Ashley is amazing and very knowledgeable. We used her for training and she really listened to the issues we were having and was so reassuring that she could help us. We were at a critical point of overwhelm with our “rescued” pup and her boot camp training turned everything around. She is incredibly compassionate and intuitive to dogs and humans alike which makes her an absolute gem and lifesaver to our family. Our dog clearly both loves and respects her. She is available to us ongoing as small issues arise and her expertise and care has been invaluable. We can’t recommend Ashley enough!

Ashley is awesome! She helped train my deaf dog Gulliver and he stays with her whenever I go out of town. She keeps me up-to-date with photos of him playing with his friends as well as lounging in her house, so I always know he is in good hands! I highly recommend her services.

Absolutely the best pet sitter!!!! Right at Home Pet Sitting took time and care with each of our fur babies. Sent pictures and updates daily. Which let us know how they were and we got to see them every day!! This is the ONLY pet sitter we will ever use. Thank you for helping and loving our babies like your own!!!

A year ago, I met The Freckled Pair when I needed to be with my daughter for a period of time. It was the 1st time I'd ever left my kitties for more than a day or two. I was so anxious and texted them many times each day. They would respond quickly and sent many pictures so I knew things were okay. Since then I've depended on them many times and know how much my kitties like to see them. They've even mastered one of the shy, scared ones to come out and get petted. I love these two ladies and don't know what I would do without them. They are loving to the animals, professional, and dependable. I feel like they are part of our family!❤️❤️❤️❤️

The Freckled Pair are the best! They provided excellent care for my 2 quirky cats (who choose to live on different floors) while I was away. I truly appreciated the daily updates and pictures. I highly recommend these two lovely ladies.

….the best cat sitters on the eastern shore.... we recently used the Freckled Pair for a second time for a longer visit of twice daily checking on our cats, and I must state that they did a phenomenal job of not only giving our cats- much needed daily attention , but they kept in touch, sent pics, took care of the house and left us feeling completely secure that our furbabies were in the best of hands! one of the cats is quite shy but they even managed to get her to come out to them(remarkable!!) absolutely recommend them to any anxious pet owners who need quality care from two of the sweetest n most professional people around... thank you both!

Reliable, trustworthy, kind and caring. Priority ONE Pet Services has provided dog waking services for my pup for the past 4 years. I can always count on the team showing up and taking the best care of my dog. Knowing my dog is excited to see his dog walkers tells me everything I need to know about how he is treated. He LOVES his walkers and greets them like he greets me after a long day at work. I could not recommend this business more!! The service they provide is absolutely priceless.

We can't say enough good things about Priority One Pet Service! Shari is caring, easy to work with, and very communicative. Her whole team is amazing as well. They go above and beyond to make sure our pup gets everything he needs, plus lots of attention and love. We also get awesome texts and pictures after each visit. We definitely recommend Shari and her team!

We’ve trusted Shari and her team with our dog since he was a puppy. They were there for us every step of the way and helped us develop our dog into a well mannered adult! They are trustworthy and reliable. We never worry when we’re at work, but it’s always nice to get an update in the app to confirm their visit. They do the extra things too.. bringing up our trash cans, bringing in packages, etc. Priority One is an amazing team and your pet will be in great hands!

Priority One Pet Services has been so helpful with our dog. At first, I was nervous to leave my dog at home all day, but Shari and her team have gone above and beyond to prove that my dog is in great hands and loved. Plus, her daily walks have helped her becomes more leash trained! We love POPS!

Priority One Pet Services is fantastic, I love this company! They are highly experienced with both cats and dogs and they truly care about the well being of my pets when I am out of town. I have a hard time trusting anyone with my animals, but I trust them 100% and I always have peace of mind when I use their services. They also give me daily updates on my pets and photos and they follow all of my instructions impeccably. I cannot recommend them enough, they are trustworthy, and they really love animals and they give mine the time and attention they need when I am out of town.

I cannot say enough good things about Priority One Pet Services. We are so grateful we found them! Shari, Carolyn, and Jenni have taken incredible care of our pups. We have two rescues and one is very selective about people. They have all shown such patience with her and now she loves them! My neighbor even stopped to tell me how amazing Jenni was with our shy girl on walks. They also give you updates with pictures! POPS has been so accommodating and easy to work with. I know my dogs are in great hands with the POPS team! Thank you all for everything you do for our pups!

If you are looking for a caring, passionate and a high quality pet sitter who will go above and beyond to care for your pets, then look no further. Shari and her team at Priority One Pet Services have taken such great care of my 2 cats for past 3 years. I have always had peace of mind while I went away for extended periods of time. Shari is professional and truly cares about your pets. You will even get a daily update as well. If you are looking for someone to care for your cats while you are out of town then definitely call Shari. You will not be disappointed. My fur babies and I will miss her and hope to find someone as great on our next journey to Florida.

I've been using Priority One for about a year. They were recommended by a neighbor who has used them for quite a while. She is certainly correct, they are awesome. Shari, the owner, is very careful and diligent to employ only the best pet caretakers. I have rescue dogs who have known neglect and bad treatment in the past, and so I am very particular about who I trust with their care. I receive detailed reports with photos via text after each visit, which is very reassuring. Additionally friends and neighbors who have observed the dogs with the pet sitters have reported their positive opinions about the service. When I get home my pets are contented and obviously well cared for. Thank you Priority One for the peace of mind!

My mother recommended that I use Priority ONE Pet Services when going away for an out of town wedding and they made the experience of being away from my pet a thousand times easier. Each visit they make, they send updates and pictures that always make me smile. I have since used them many times and their service and professionalism are constant with each trip I take. I will continue to entrust them with a very precious family member.

Shari and Priority One Pet Services is the best! We’ve been using them for close to two years to watch our kitties whenever we’re out of town; they take excellent care of our pets and keep an eye on the house. We get updates each visit they make and lots of photos of the kitties. :) We appreciate the professionalism and dedication of Shari and her team. I highly recommend Priority One Pet Services!
