honeybee was a great sitter for our 3 animals. She communicated very well throughout the sit. Our flight home was delayed and she was great about being able to cover the extra days. Her connection to the animals was wonderful. We were less organized than intended on her arrival due to some unexpected work issues, and she was great about rolling with the changes (e.g. the closet doors were missing as the painter hadn't finished with them). She used public transport to get to Golden and then drove our car while here. She left a few items behind, and her attention to kitchen cleanliness could be better, but we would definitely have her sit our pets again if the opportunity arises.
Amanda was the perfect housesitter and pet sitter for our cat. She is organized and communicative, and took care to ensure she understood the guidelines for taking care of our home and our cat. She left our house in perfect condition and we returned home to one happy kitty! Would not hesitate to have Amanda housesit for us again or recommend her to others looking for a sitter.
Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.
Tom provided a last minute sit when my 2 week long trip got extended to the 3rd. The previous zeewoi sitter was no longer available for the 3rd week, and Tom came in as a savior. As requested, he started his sit a day prior to the posted dates (thank you for being flexible). He met the prior zeewoi in person, since I was not in town, and got to know the house and cats quickly. He sent pictures of the cats each day and added a note about their well being. He was independent and was able to figure out how to use the litter genie on his own. I returned to a clean home and healthy happy cats. Would love to have Tom return and recommend him to anyone leaving their pets in his care.
Leo and Susi were wonderful pet sitters for our two cats. They were responsive, communicative, and gracious guests, and the I swear the house was cleaner when we got home than we left it. The cats were very contented. Any time we leave we will be checking in with them first. Such a pleasure to work with.
Thomas did an amazing job! We were very pleased with how well he was able to care for our 3 active Boston terriers. He was able to handle all 3 on a walk and feed them their special meal everyday. He even ventured out and took them to the beach which is no easy task for 3 excited dogs. Thomas did a great job communicating before and during the stay. We came home to a clean house with bedding washed. We had a handful of other pet sitters through this website and Thomas easily rates at the top of our list. Thank you for taking great care for the dogs and the house.
Jessica was an awesome pet sitter for my cat Fifi. She texted photos and updates everyday so I knew that Fifi was being well cared for. She was communicative and asked a lot of good questions to make sure she understood Fifi's needs. My home was equally as clean (if not more so) upon my return. I would highly recommend Jessica!
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.
Absolutely Incredible.... I will not lie, I was hesitant because David did not have any pet sits before this one (gotta start somewhere) but because he did the background check I decided to contact him. We had a great phone conversation and the decision was made. He came to my house the night before I was leaving to learn all the ins and outs of taking care of my fur babies and then put himself up in a hotel for the night before the sit date. The next day he came over in the morning to learn a few more details before I left. I could not have chosen a better house sitter for my 2nd house sit . David communicated with me daily, sent pictures and we spoke via facetime. My little guy was feeling sick when David started and with diligence, love and kindness he was able to get my little guy eating again and feeling better. I would invite David back into my home over and over again but I am pretty sure he is going to be in high demand. Thank you David for everything!
For our first experience with a house sitter, Jim and Julie have set the bar high. We felt totally confident that any issues would be dealt with, fortunately there were none. They were outstanding house and pet sitters whom we would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. They took exceptional care of our house full of pets from 2 large dogs, 3 cats, snake, gecko, fish tank and a koi pond. They provided updates daily, were very easy to communicate with and the house was just as clean as when we left it, with the addition of a nice welcome home gift. We knew our pets were in good hands. Thank you for everything. Melissa and Kyle

I’ve had a really great experiences with Village Woof for about the past year but last week really sealed the deal for me. First of all, they give report cards which is adorable and dress them up for Halloween. My dogs lose their minds when we pull up and are depressed when we leave. Our little one plays so much that he’s covered with dust and dirt at the end of the day and we can schedule baths for him before we pick him up! We got a puppy just before COVID and he basically got raised without socialization so I bring him twice a week alone to play with other dogs and one of those days with our older dog. On Friday he was playing really rowdy with another dog and cut his eye. They called me to let me know and told me that there weren’t fighting, just playing and it was an accident - like kids on a playgrounds They have an on-site veterinary hospital so they took him over there to treat it and reassured me that it wasn’t very serious. They monitored him all day and gave him breaks. They sent us home with medicine and ointment and didn’t charge us for any of it or for treating him. We just felt so grateful and comfortable having our dogs there knowing that not only are they responsible with supervising the dogs but they have services on site if there are little mishaps like this and aren’t going to hold it against us. We live in Swansea and there’s a popular doggy daycare that’s about to open up about two minutes from us. I started coming to the Village because it was about two minutes from my office but now because I mainly work from home it’s about a 20 minute drive. We considered splitting their day care days between the two for literally just the convenience, but they don’t have a vet hospital on site and charge so much more for extra services. So if this happened there, we’d have had to leave and pick him up and take him t out vet and so forth. So after Friday, we decided the drive is worth it because we know they’re in great hands and having a vet site that we can trust for is invaluable. I can’t speak highly of them enough!
They took me in super quick took great care of my baby at a very low price also squeezed me in for a c section and did amazing very small incision very clean stitches the staff was so friendly you can tell they love the animals also while waiting for the c section they trimmed my babies nails at no extra cost when I say this is my new go to vet for all my dogs I’m being very honest best service I ever received !!!!! Highly recommend specially for American bully owners !
Not like any other vet, you can tell she’s a big animal person with a big heart. I know when I bring my pets I’m putting them in the best care possible. The staff is awesome too. I’ve went to 5 different vets before her and couldn’t find one I trusted. I found her from volunteering at Lighthouse animal shelter and she’s awesome with the shelters animals too!
The price is good, that's one of the only good experiences I've had here. Took my pregnant dog here for an estimate on how many puppies, they said 5 maybe 6 and they are huge. This was after she had a litter of 11 the previous year. She ended up with 10 puppies and not huge at all. Maybe they checked the wrong x-ray. And I was there last September to put down my very sick cat, this was an extremely unprofessional experience, as if putting my 4 year old cat to sleep wasn't painful enough they gave him a sedative to calm him first said they'd be back in 10 to give him his final shot. 35 minutes later after the sedative wears off they come back and wrestle him on the table to give him his shot, meanwhile my husband and I are sobbing as our cat screams for his final few moments of life. I will never have another animal put down here again, I will go elsewhere and pay double to not go through that ever again.
Best vet clinic ever. I would never take my dog to any other vet ever. They r great ppl and they out beat any price i got from any veterinary center from Fall River to Boston.
Been with our puppy twice. Each time we waited over an hour and there was no-one else there. Everyone was friendly but there was literally 6 staff working, no other patients(pets) there and we got there st 10:55 for an 11:00 appt but we're not seen until 12:05.
Was at the village vet on popes Island and she very helpful and suggested possible solutions to my dogs issues
Dr Brito is a great Veterinarian. I highly recommend The Village Woof for pets care and needs. Friendly staff, clean and caring environment for your furry, feathered, or scaly kids. 🐶🐱🦅🦎 …
Amazing day care service, super friendly staff. My puppy loves going and getting to play with all the dogs. Great vet on staff as well
Really cheap but the service is slow and in professional. My dog got her blood drawn and poop glands squeeze and neither of those times did they use gloves. Attend at your own peril.
,My boy Mace ( pure European working German Shepherd) spends his days there regularly with his doggy pals. He's always treated well and safe for the day. Very caring and professional w/o drama.
Pasa is very friendly and was great with my animals (cat and a rabbit). I'd recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter or day/overnight boarding.
Great, clean place to keep your dogs. The dogs are extremely loved and cared for. They get excited to come here!
Pasa was great and took great care of our dog.
Everyone at Paws n Play are very nice and genuinely care for your pup. They responded to every text I sent and assured me that my pup was having a good time. I love the fact that they constantly post pictures of all the play time and they will even send you private pics if you don’t have Facebook. My pup stayed here for one week and had the best time ever!! She was pampered on the last day and let’s talk about how good she still smells amazing days later! I have to get my hands on the shampoo they use, Lol! We have used this facility with 2 of our dogs and have always been very pleased! 🐶❤️
We use Paws 'N' Play one day a week for our 14-month old Havanese puppy. She seems to really enjoy socializing with the other dogs... and the staff is excellent.
Boarded our girl there for the first time, and can’t express my gratitude enough for how well they took care of her. Love how they are constantly posting pics & videos of the dogs - it felt like we were checking in on her while we were gone.
Paws N Play took excellent care of our members of the pac. Bath, nails and play time they were happy when I picked them up. Staff was very friendly. Referred them to my picky sister n law.
They are great! Daycare, boarding and baths for reasonable prices.
I called them as I am new to dog daycare. Person on phone was rude and said that my dog is not good enough to join their “ Pack”. That’s fine I will find another place that is respectful and willing to handle my 40 pound dog. Also my dog is a great dog. Avoid this place if you don’t want to be judged.
They are the best! We boarded our dog for a week and felt totally fine with the care she received. And the pictures of all the doggies are awesome!!!
Lora and her staff do a FANTASTIC JOB! I usually only bring my furry friend a few times a year(been bringing him for the past 4 years)but when I do, I’ve always had a positive experience. This year he did a weekend stay and he also did a 10 day stay due to our vacation plans. I had zero issues, when I checked in on him(because he was staying so long)I received a timely and positive response from the owner. Her staff is extremely friendly and I find that they understand how stressful it can be leaving your pet in someone else’s care. They do put their pics on Facebook playing with other dogs so you can see how they are doing which is great. I find the facility to be very clean and the staff to be very organized. My only suggestion would be to book early if you plan on a trip during a holiday weekend or the summer, they can fill up fast sometimes.
First time going to Paws 'N' Play and I was very disappointed. I called to make an appointment for my dog to have a bath. I was told I can drop him off at 12pm and he will be ready for 1:30pm. Shortly after I drop him off I received a text saying he will be ready at 12:30. I was at work and didn't plan for that so I had to leave early to get him. Once I arrived I was told it was $40 I had asked why it was so much when the websites says $25-35 for dogs 0-39 lb and my dog is 25 lb. I was told price went up and they weren't even aware the website had the prices listed. The didn't honor the price they advertised. Once I brought my dog home I noticed he smelled like they had just spryed him with perfume. He felt exactly the same as when I dropped him off. Now it's been a few days and his dog oder is back. I am convinced they didn't even bath him also they missed a few of his nails that were supposed to be trimmed.
Awesome facility and my puppy absolutely loved her weekend here. As a new dog dad I was a bit nervous boarding her for the first time, but Lora made us feel comfortable from the get go. And her communication throughout the weekend with updates and pictures took away any worries I had!
Look at how happy they are 🤣 a picture speaks a thousand words. This was Lucas and Violet’s second time here and the longest stay away from us. As usual… we mean nothing to them as they enjoyed their vacation here. The owners are phenomenal with their updates, get amazing pictures and take such good care of our babies. It’s hard finding someone you trust when your fur babies can’t speak to tell you if they’re taken care of or not. But the smiles say it all 🖤 we love it here!
I have brought my dogs here to stay 3 times for when we go on vacation and cant bring our pups. The staff is very friendly and posts photos of the dogs on their facebook. Highly recommend for anyone who needs their dogs to be watched for any occasion. They have many things for the dogs to play with and is very good for the dogs to get socialization! I have added photos of our dogs that have been posted to their Facebook 🙂
My husband and I were a little apprehensive about leaving Shadow in a group setting as she has been fear responsive. Kara & James worked with her and within a day she was in with all the dogs. I love the videos they and all the pictures they post each day so you can check in on your fur-baby anytime. We are definitely going to have 7 dogs boarding for all of our future vacations!!
Our 6 month old pup absolutely LOVES coming to hangout out for the day or a weekend here. I know that she is well taken care of, happy and worn out from playing with her friends by the time we pick her up from a day while we are at work. The owners know each and every dog personally and take the time to care for them like their own. We always know our dog is in great hands at 7 dogs boarding and daycare!
Over the past week, my partner and I left our 6 month old retriever in the caring hands of Kara and James at 7 Dogs Boarding. If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! This was the first time leaving Ellie with a boarder, and needless to say, we were both extremely thrilled that we chose them. Ellie is a very submissive and timid girl when it comes to first interactions with other dogs, so at first, we were hesitant leaving her anywhere. Kara and James both reassured us that she would be in great hands, and they would make sure she would be comfortable at all times. They had sent pictures and videos to us to show that she was having a great time, and when we picked her up, it was like she was a brand new dog! She loves being around other pups now! All in all, this had to have been the best decision my partner Chad and I have made for Ellie. They were very accommodating, helpful, and attentive. Not to mention Ellie absolutely adores the couple and the business, as do Chad and I for all of their hard work. We are very pleased with our experience, and look forward to boarding at 7 Dogs again! I’m sure Ellie is too. 😉
Great people! Great place! James and Kara are wonderful and they keep me posted everyday that my dog is being boarded. I look forward to the daily pictures. They are quick to respond to any questions. So glad I found 7 Dogs Boarding and Day Care, Inc.
Another great weekend with a piece of mind Bentley is well taken care of. He is pooped from playing with all his friends. Thank you!! We love Kara and 7 dogs Boarding. They Couldn't be more accommodating for our last minute plans. I have confidence Bentley is well cared for while he is there. Its so nice to have piece of mind while we are away. So glad I found them.
We highly recommend 7 Dogs Boarding and Day Care. We have 2 100+ pound Great Pyrenees who have never been away from us for any length of time. Having go somewhere without them gave us the need to search out a day care and boarding place that would accept them at their size. Yesterday was their fist time staying at 7 Dogs and of course being very nervous to leave them under someone else care was very hard. I can now say that we are so very impressed with the care and fun they had that they will now be our go to place with our gentle giants. Drop of was easy and very pleasant, the pick up was also the same. You can tell right from the fist meeting that the owners really care for animals and treat them as their own. We watched the videos they posted of our dogs and the other fur babies having the time of their life playing. Thank You so much for the care you give all of our fur babies. If I could I would give them 10 stars and the highest rating.
We boarded our Lab at 7 dogs, when we took a family trip to Florida. He was well taken care of and made lots of friends in his time there. We are extremely happy with the quality of care and will definitely be using them again in the future!
I rarely leave raving reviews but 7 Dogs Boarding is terrific! My puppy Penny has grown in confidence and loves playing with her friends. Kara and her husband are fantastic. They have the most flexible hours of operation and cost effective rates!
We have never used a service to take care of our animals while away but we decided to give it a try for our two cats. We found Lexi via Facebook and were glad we hired her to watch our cats while away for two weeks on vacation. Lexi did an amazing job caring for our cats and it is evident she truly treats pets like they are her own. She communicated frequently with messages and videos and made us feel at ease while away that our cats were doing well. Would highly recommend Lexi and look forward to utilizing her services again in the future! Thanks Lexi 🐾❤️🐾
Lexi is the best! We know that our very shy cat is in the best of hands when we go away. Lexi sends us daily updates, and is making great progress developing a relationship with her each time she visits. We know that she is safe and cared for in her comfortable home environment. I highly recommend No Place Like Home Pet Services!!
Lexy is hands down the most caring dog sitter I have ever had. She takes such good care of our Australian Shepherd. She took the time to get to know him and what he likes...apparently less walks and more fetch!...and when he accidently broke out of our home while we were away, she contacted me immediately and even offered to go out and check on him at 11pm. You're not gonna find a more competent and thorough caregiver for your furry family than this amazing crew!!
Lexi recently did drop-in visits for our cat while we were on vacation for a week. It was our first time using her services and we are so grateful we found her business! She made the process very easy and is extremely personable and communicative. In the brief interaction we had, it was clear how much she truly cares for each of the animals she tends too and respects their individual needs. Even though our cat is not exactly friendly towards new people and will hide, she managed a few glimpses of him and shared updates - which gave me great peace of mind to know he was ok! I would highly recommend her services!
The absolute best. Lexi is kind, incredible with all animals, always so thorough, and one of the best things that ever happened to us! Our dogs absolutely love her.
Lexi is wonderful - my dogs love her and so do I! Always dependable and responsive. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to trust with your fur babies!
Lexi is so great! She spends quality time with both of my dogs and is so patient with my shy dog. I know my dogs are getting TLC when I’m busy at work when she is there!
Highly recommend Lexi, she is amazing with our dogs, and they absolutely love her! She also treats our home like it’s her own!!
We appreciate your feedback!🐾 Thank you! …
We appreciate you taking the time to leave your review for NPLH Pet Services
BEST Doggie Daycare/Boarding Ever! This review is unbiased from someone that has been going here for over 8 years. If you are like me, your fur babies are your family and only trust their care to the BEST, then The Executive Dog is the place you need. One of my dogs (Rocko) have been going to Executive Dog since he was 9 months old, and is now 8.5 years old. Since then we added another furbaby to our family and Scarlett has been going there as well since she was 6 months old. The Executive Dog, Inc.is the best place for our furry kids. Not only do my dogs love going there ( they bark and screech as soon as I get on the street all the way down to the lot and then try to jump out the window as soon as I pull into the parking lot). They are exhausted from such fun filled days ~ that when they get home, they eat and then sleep until the morning. A tired dog is a good dog. I feel bad when I cannot bring them in, because they love it so much. They have also taken great care of my dog with grooming, as well as overnight stays (including 2+ weeks).They always have a spot open for Rocko and Scarlett when I need it. I have boarded them from 1 night to 19 nights, and they absolutely adore Shelley and the crew over at The Executive Dog. I definitely recommend this for the best Daycare, Grooming and Boarding .
We’ve been part of the Exe. Dog family for over 5 years now, and have had a wonderful experience. Our 10 y.o corgi is a very important part of our family and we researched this facility prior to committing and it’s been a terrific experience. We take advantage of all their services food/daycare/grooming/and overnights when we travel and in each case our dog (little princess) always comes back to us in fantastic condition. The owner and staff are always accommodating extremely knowledgeable and professional. Were lucky to have them and I encourage any and all who consider their dog precious to reach out to the team. JOE
Executive Dog is the BEST! My golden retriever Toby, has been going to Executive Dog since he was 4 months old and he's 8 years old now. This doggie day care is truly heaven on earth for dogs and is a 5+ star! Shelley and her staff are always friendly and caring. Toby looks forward to going to ED and jumps out of the car when we get there because he can't wait to hang with his pack friends. Super clean and roomy inside and out and the new artificial lawn outside gives them a great playing space.
My dog loves going to Executive Dog for daycare! She is always super excited to get there! Our experience has been nothing but positive. The dogs are always well behaved and you almost never hear them barking! The staff is always friendly and welcoming. I am constantly recommending this place to everyone I know. Can not say enough good things.
My Golden Retriever Chloe can't wait to get to Executive Dog on her "school" days! Shelly is fantastic and takes great care of all the dogs. It is a caring environment and I never have the slightest concern. I know my pup is in great hands and comes home tired and happy.
Shelley at Executive Dog is an amazing dog person. I always felt so confident leaving my dog with her that he would be well cared for safe. I've been to other doggy day cares and no one else keeps my dog as happy and healthy as Shelley does. I love that the dogs have the freedom to play and enjoy the day, but that she also keeps and eye out for bad behaviors (such as my dog eating poop- terrible and unhealthy habit!) and tries to prevent them. The place is reasonably priced, friendly, and reliable. They also do grooming right on site which is super convenient!
Our dog has been going to Executive Dog for a while now - I think over a year, currently two days a week. She loves it there, comes home tired (from playing) and happy (exactly what we want). She has a great time playing with the other dogs, so it's great exercise AND socialization. You do have to pick your day(s) of the week FYI, it's not a drop-in anytime kind of doggie daycare (this makes sure there is a consistent number of dogs, and that they all get along well). The hours and location are convenient for us, and the owner and staff members obviously love animals and take good care of them. We've moved one town away but prefer to drive back to this doggie daycare rather than switching. We have also boarded our dog and were happy with boarding services. Great place!
To begin with the dog loves it there. Shelly and co. Run a tight ship. The place is always cleaned up and the dogs get along. This service socialized our Gracie so that we can trust her around dogs wherever we go. We've boarded Gracie there as well and she always comes home not stressed out. I'd recommend this place for all dog owners especially people who want their young dogs socialized to other dogs.
Our dog loves going to executive dog. He gets so anxious in the morning if he sees us all getting ready to head out to work and school if he thinks we are going without him that he won't eat until we put his leash on so he knows he's going to executive dog! It's quite clean, has a great out door space (as well as a huge indoor space), staff is friendly and accommodating. Our dog gets so excited to go. We highly recommend it.
Our silky terrier Mikey attends Executive Dog 2 days a week and loves it! He needed to hang with a "pack" of his own instead of just being with my husband and I. Silkies have a strong personality and need to have that discipline that only a pack can offer. Executive Dog provides just that and more! Shelly and her crew are knowledgeable, friendly and I trust them with our boy. They monitor for any problems and he is safe and happy! He comes home fulfilled, exhausted and relaxed! He barks all the way up to in the car when it's time to go again!!
