Pet Sitters in Howard County, MD

We’ve been taking our dog to Dogtopia for daycare and grooming for the last 5 years. They have been wonderful with him from his early days as a “wild man” puppy. They provide a safe environment with a balanced schedule of active time and rest time. We’ve always appreciated the way the staff share information about how the day went. It’s so reassuring leaving him with such caring folks.

We have been going to dogtopia for a year now and it is such a great organization. The staff is friendly, accommodating and provides so much love to our boy. Our pup has boarded there and it was an excellent experience. He has a complicated diet and they follow the instructions carefully and he gets lots of play time, rest time and outside time. He goes weekly for daycare and on days when he doesn't get to go he pouts and is noticeably sad. He gets baths from Laurie and her team on the regular and overall loves dogtopia. I feel so lucky that we found them because they take such good care of our fluff boy! They are lower priced then competition around and it feels like a true small business where they want to provide good service. Highly recommend.

Excellent Excellent treatment of my fur baby. He is treated like one of their own. They know his personality and make adjustments to make him comfortable. l will always bring Mikie to Dogtopia Clarksville to stay.

The staff is friendly and informative, and our dog always seems to enjoy her time there, which helps keep our minds at ease while we are away. We're confident she is in good, capable, and loving hands.

My dogs have been going to Dogtopia since 2009. For the past 15 years, the Dogtopia management and staff have consistently provided outstanding daycare and boarding services, including maintaining a clean facility and providing loving care to my beloved dogs.

🏣 Very clean and hygiene place, friendly and welcoming staff, a perfect and safe location in my neighborhood to leave my pet Ms.Eleven 🐶 🐾🐾🐾🐾 when I have to attend to my other family needs. She too loves it . I recommend this place for your furry family members. 🙋🏻‍♀️💞🐶 …

Friendly, flexible, knowledgeable. They know my dog well. Jerry even lets the groomer cut his nails. Wonderful staff.

My dog loves being at Dogtopia. She is well cared for and enjoys the company of the other dogs.

Matt and his staff are so caring and professional ! They really treat each pet as if it’s their own. Awesome 🤩 …

The owner is kind and knowledgeable. We feel lucky to have found a such a wonderful place to call home away from home for our dog. And, we like to support local and are proud to be a part of the Clarksville Dogtopia family.

Working with Grace as our dog trainer was a fantastic experience. Her expertise and genuine love for dogs were evident from the start. Grace personalized training sessions, making them effective and enjoyable. Her clear communication, patience, and ongoing support made a significant impact. Thanks to Grace, our dog is not only better behaved but also happier. I highly recommend her as an outstanding dog trainer.

We’ve been going to Pinkie’s Play Place for grooming for about half a year now. Choco is a long-haired chihuahua and we only do outline/sanitary trim with bath/brush. They always accommodate our needs and wants. Their price is very reasonable and we’re happy with the result every time. Choco often shows fear aggression to strangers and other dogs but apparently he’s been a complete angel with everyone at Pinkie’s, which clearly shows they take real good care of him and he enjoys his time there. Everyone shows so much loved every time we visit and I’m so grateful!

Heather! The staff and everyone. I am so glad I found you guys you guys are amazing! You have taken such good care of Coco. More or less I’m so thankful for each and everyone of you for taking care of Coco and as well as being so amazing the customer service the hospitality for the dogs! Fabulous I have no complaints! Thank you so much for all you do❤️ Heather is also an entrepreneur like me. She’s been so supportive of my business understanding and empowering In general. I appreciate you.

Heather is talented, very knowledgeable and amazing person with a passion for animals! Absolutely blown out of the water what she did with our golden retriever! Sophie an older pup a Docile we call her lol. Took very good care of her. Years we were going to pet smart not knowing how she would come back different every time. Consistency none. Money spent wasted. Finally pulled the trigger after doing business with Heather and we are super happy. Would not trust anyone else with our dog. Wonderful business great team. Absolutely fair price and for your money she does care more about the pet than your wallet.

We’ve been using Pinkie’s for boarding and doggie daycare for 2 years and have been so pleased with how they take care of our pup. They take care of her as she was their own. She comes home happy and tired. Our pup loves Pinkie’s!

Wow! We have been using Pinkies for boarding for a while now. This last visit we had Rudy groomed. They did an amazing job...price was very reasonable for a large dog.

This is my dog's favorite place in the world. He goes every Thursday for day care and I better not forget. If he thinks I'm leaving the house without him he grabs his lead and brings it to me. As for grooming she does a wonderful job. He is a bouvier des flanders and he always looks wonderful after the groom. He is also so relaxed on the table that he has actually laid down and gone to sleep while being groomed

Best boarding we have ever used. The employees are very professional and they clearly cared about our dog. Not to mention they are the ONLY boarding facility that has ever offered us a tour of the entire facility. Boarding costs more than the average but the facilities were very nice and they had cameras for us to watch our dog everywhere! So it was worth the price. Our dog has never returned home from a boarding stay with this little stress! We will definitely make this our regular boarding place!

if u don't love Pinkie's something is deeply wrong with you <3 my dogs love it here and that's all because of the fun-loving, caring staff. the owner of this facility is top notch in the dog industry and no one does it better than her.

My Golden Doodle was there for grooming. I recently moved and was very nervous because that dog is my bff. Heather did a wonderful job. The cut far exceeded my hopes. The pup left happy, so he must have gotten wonderful care.

Barking Trails takes great care of my four-footed family member. My Cairo is a big goofball, and all of our walkers have worked wonderfully with him. I went with a service rather than paying an individual to ensure consistency in service. Barking Trails has always come through for us, even when we've unexpectedly needed additional service. They're wonderful.

Caring staff, love animals and my dogs loved them. Will use their service again. My dogs are so spoiled they don’t take to anyone. But this team of animal lovers, my dogs couldn’t get enough of them. Thank you and I will be seeing you and using your service again soon.

Barking trails has been very easy to deal with. We have had some companies in the past that have caused some headaches, very relieved to have found Barking Trails.

Awesome company! Extremely caring and very professional. I would strongly recommend.

Amazing company! Extremely caring and super professional. I really recommend them!

Easy to schedule and pay invoices

Very nice company Good on communication and treat your pet like your own

I would highly recommend breaking Trail services to my family and friends.

Fantastic service!

I can't rave enough about Tiki's Playhouse! I've had 2 generations of dogs go to Tiki's and they love it. And with a full-time job, it's a saving grace for me and gives my best pal something to do everyday! 🫶 🐶 Much Love, Brian, Newton (and Merlin RIP)

Tiki’s playhouse is amazing! I’ve been bringing my dog here since he was a puppy and he absolutely LOVES it. The place is definitely deceiving as it’s a small home, but don’t let that fool you. There’s tons of fun and love for all animals. The owner Kelvin is great and very accommodating. Five stars!

Our dog has extreme separation anxiety....but when we leave her with Dana and Kelvin for daycare, she doesn't miss us at all. We know we're leaving her in very loving hands! She always has a great time and sleeps quite well that night!

My dog loves Tiki’s. Kelvin always finds good staff that care about the dogs. The group of dogs that they screen are there all play really well together.

Our Vizsla loves how much room there is to run in Tiki’s outdoor yards. The manager (Jamie in the picture) and owner are super friendly! When you stop by, make sure to grab a drink in their coffee shop when you stop by. My favorite is the Vanilla Latte!

I love Tiki’s Playhouse! I am happy that my little puppy gets an outside space with grass and he loves all his friends there ( humans and dogs!)

We have been taking our whippet for daycare to Tiki's for about a year and could not be happier! Kelvin, Jamie and the entire staff is super dog loving and make the process simple and low key. Our beloved guy is always happy to get the playtime with his friends during his visits. We also recently had a great experience boarding him for a few days when we had to fly. The lattes next door are also top notch, highly recommended all around!

We have been taking our golden retriever to Tiki's for 3 years now, since he was a puppy. We looked at several day care places until we found one where we knew our dog would get love, exercise, and socialization in a safe and caring environment. We did not want to drop him off somewhere where he would be crated and ignored all day. We are so happy with Tiki's and we know he is too - we can tell by the way he drags us in the door. We feel comfortable boarding him there too - we initially had someone come to the house and stay with him whenever we went on vacation, but we started taking him to board there once we saw how happy he was at daycare. There are closer daycare places to us, but we driver further to Tiki's because is it such quality care. And we can tell the staff and the owner really love the dogs and take good of them. I recommend this place without any reservations or qualms (and I am really picky).

Tiki's is the best! Everyone is kind, professional, and GREAT with all the dogs! The staff interacts with the dogs all day and they come home happy and tired. I also love that they are outside often, running and playing on real grass. It is wonderful to know my dog is in great hands whether he is just there to play for the day, or if I am away for a few days. Tiki's really is a home away from home for all the dogs :)

When we got our dogs, we knew we would need to have them walked or put them in daycare so they could get enough exercise. Tiki's was local to us so we tried them out. Fast forward 5 years and our now adult dogs still go to daycare at Tiki's. They absolutely love going, so much so that when we went on vacation last year, we boarded our dogs at Tiki's instead of having family stay with them (a first for us!). I can't say enough about the care my dogs get when they're at Tiki's and I recommend them to everyone I know!

My senior pup, Kaylee (9 years old), REALLY loved her first day of daycare at the Wagging Lounge! She was keen to explore and meet everyone from the minute we walked in, and she loved everyone on staff (including the men, which was pleasantly surprising given her history of meeting some other men). She’s quite independent, so she apparently spent the day dog watching and hanging out with all of the humans. The spaces are clean, the staff are friendly, and the prices are a good value. Kaylee will be coming back for a week-long stay later this year, and I know she and I are both excited about that! For now, she’s a bit tuckered from her adventure.

Our dogs, Fresca and Sydney, love Wagging Lounge! The girls howl with excitement when we turn the corner knowing where they are going. Every staff member has been very helpful and we are so thankful they take care of our girls so well. We don't have to worry about anything during the day or when we go on vacation. My husband and I love seeing the daily photos and videos showing all the pups having fun.

We love WL and have recommended it to every friend in the area that was looking for boarding or daycare! They have taken care of our doodle Tonks so well, she absolutely loves heading in for daycare and she’s always so worn out after a long day of playing with the other dogs. You absolutely can’t beat the Wagging Lounge!

Even after moving 30 minutes away, Wagging Lounge is STILL the only place we board our dogs. We love the trusted staff and dog savviness they have. They know Bear and Lily by name and are always so happy to have them boarding. Wagging Lounge deeply cares for the dogs that come and know all the ins and outs of them.

Our dog Luna loves coming here! We tried a few days of daycare prior to boarding her. We liked that the dogs are evaluated to make sure they are having an okay time before being kept and we loved her report card on her first day. When we drop her off she doesn’t even look back to us she is so excited to go play with her friends. While Luna was boarded it was also great to know her schedule and see daily photos to let us know she was doing well!

Our dog Hobbes always has a great time at Wagging Lounge! They take great care of him and he gets some socializing and exercise during the day. The boarding options are also very convenient for us. The staff are always very friendly, recognize him, and very communicative. He’s always excited to walk in the door!

I can't say enough good things about the wonderful people that work at Wagging Dog and the Kim's who own and operate it. My dogs have been coming since they were puppies and they always love a day with their friends. They always come home safe and tired and well loved and cared for. Thanks Wagging Dog team, Kelly dogs love you!

We started sending our dog, Duncan to wagging lounge when he was just a puppy! I was so nervous dropping him off because he was such an anxious pup. He absolutely loved it! We love the daily pictures and the staff take such good care of our fur baby. Our usually skittish dog has the best time! The staff at wagging lounge are extremely personable and accommodating. When my husband and I were expecting our baby in the summer they immediately made room for Duncan in their boarding schedule, as we had to quickly rush to the hospital. We love wagging lounge!!

Our dog Lizzie loves it here at Wagging Lounge. She’s very well taken care of, and you can tell that everyone at Wagging Lounge really cares about the pups they take care of. Whenever our dog walks through the door, we’re greeted by a chorus of people saying “Lizzie!!” and it always puts a smile on my face. You can definitely trust your pup to the fine folks at Wagging Lounge

We love sending our pup, Lisa, to the Wagging Lounge Dog Resort Of particular pawesomeness is that they post pics of her having a blast! They also make me feel like she is the coolest pup they've ever met and that they truly love her and care for her. She overcame her longstanding fear of cars after just a few trips to Wagging Dog-- I think because she started to associate the car with going to daycare! We are truly grateful for the care they take of our pup. I'm a mom of 3 human kiddos who have been in daycare, too-- and i really appreciate the special love and affection -- it is invaluable.
