Mary was fantastic from start to finish and looked after our elderly dog with love and attention to her needs. She also looked after our home with respect and care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer sitter and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention. He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!
I felt that my dogs were in good hands with Billy & Cherice - both pups seemed happy and well cared for when I returned from my 3-week trip. My home was also clean and tidy. This was my first experience using an unknown sitter and I felt nervous to leave my dogs for so long while traveling abroad. If they were to stay again I would request more regular photo updates, but otherwise was very happy with Billy and Cherice's pet and home care.
We were lucky to have Andrea back for another sit with our elderly dog and feral cat. She has been wonderful both in the past and on this last sit for a month! We trust her implicitly and are always at ease that our pets will have the most kind and careful attention. She is excellent with videos and communication and very clean and tidy. Again we feel lucky to have found her, and feel she would be a great sitter for any pets!
Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully. Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!
Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.
Kyle was a great house sitter and pet sitter for us. We had a good dialogue prior to him sitting for us, and we also did a short walkthrough the week before. Kyle formed a great bond with our dog Charlie and also took good care of our rabbit Poppy. A couple of minor issues came up with systems in our home due to an unexpected power outage, and Kyle was quick to connect with us and then was able to work 1:1 with the service providers to resolve the issues. We look forward to working with Kyle again.
Jeremy and Brooke were fantastic! We have a senior dog and a over hyper pittie. They gave Daisy her meds and had lengthy walks with Fin to burn off some of his energy. Brooke sent me regular texts to show me precious pictures of the pups by the Christmas tree, which warmed my ❤️. The house looked great when we returned. They are awesome detailed sitters and will make your pets feel loved and secure!!
Jerry and Suzanne were absolutely ideal sitters for our home and pets. We spoke with them ahead of their visit and could tell that they are genuine pet and travel lovers. Over their stay we got to see even more that they are wonderfully friendly, kind, and responsible - plus they kept us laughing with their updates and descriptions of our pets' antics while we were away. Our pets and plants were well loved and our house was spotless upon our return home, and they were even kind enough to leave a few goodies in the fridge. Our dog in particular seemed to miss them and their long walks around the neighborhood. Thank you Jerry and Suzanne! We wish you well in your travels!

The absolute best place to have your pup for daytime camp or boarding. It is immediately obvious they love each and every dog. I wouldn’t recommend another facility or staff, this is where to bring your pups. And I get some cute pics while I’m gone as well!
Our pups had a nice experience at Camp Bow Wow! Although, boarding dogs is never cheap, they are much more accommodating Camp Bow Wow than other establishments and give their over night staying dogs free access to their doggie daycare, unlike other places, in the area, who charge the full fee for doggie daycare, if you don't want your dog locked up in their kennel the whole time. Also, noticed they had older workers here who paid more attention to the dogs then at another place, where saw the workers on video, while checking on our dogs, looking disinterested and paying more attention to their phone screens than the dogs and the dogs were visibly bored. Not so at Camp Bow Wow! The folks there do a better job at engaging the dogs and keeping them happy! 😊
Eatontown Camp Bow Wow always takes great care of our Girl CC! We know she is in caring hands and we love getting daily pictures, updates & of course the report card when we pick her up!
They do an excellent job of grooming my dog, so much better than the previous groomer that she was afraid of! Now she always loves going! The day and overnight camp is great too!
My pup Mocha has been going to Camp Bow Wow ever since she was 1 years old. She is now going to be 8 and still loves it. They treat her like royalty and respect and she always has a great time with her friends. I NEVER have to worry! Highly recommend.
They always take such good care of our Birdie! Great staff! We have had our dog there for multiple stays and every time she comes home happy and smelling great! Love Camp Bow Wow!
My Luna bear has been going to camp Bow Wow for 4 yrs now and it's her second home. The staff at camp Bow Wow has always made Luna and myself feel comfortable. She loves going to daycare and boarding. They are the own facility I trust with caring, loving and taking care of my Luna bear. They always go above and beyond and make it appoint to check in with me. Now having a new furry addition Oreo, who is a senior dog the staff takes extra care of him and gives him alot of love.
CAMP BOW WOW takes such good care of my Boxers. A high level of service unmatched in the area. Best decision we made this year. We are extremely thankful to the entire staff. Our dogs love it at Camp Bow Wow. Thank you!
Our dogs LOVE CBW! We can’t even say the word CAMP, In fact we think they’ve learned to spell it! They are always super excited to go. Being able to check on them on the cameras is always fun for us.
I have been taking my sheepadoodle to Camp Bow Wow Eatontown since he was 1 (over 3 years). My dog would go once a week for camp and get groomed there as well. I loved the staff and environment so much that I referred people and always wrote raving reviews. However, this changed when my 55 lb sheepadoodle was attacked by a 100+ lb rotweiler during camp one day. An employee called me while I was at work to inform me of the incident stating there was a “fight” and that my dog had a puncture wound in his back. “Its up to you but we recommend vet treatment”. Not once did he tell me my dog was okay and whenever I asked a question, his response was “we can talk more when you get here”. I was at work over an hour away. I called my vet, told them the situation and made an emergency appointment as I did not know the true extent of the injuries nor the overall condition of my dog. I then called my parents as they were closer. I called Camp back to inform them of the arrangements and the same man answered the phone. When I asked for the other dogs medical records, I was met with a rude tone, “I can’t give you that, that is proprietary information”. I asked if the other dog was okay to which I was told the other dog had no injuries but again “we can discuss more once you get here”. He made the point multiple times that Camp Bow Wow is not liable for any of my vet bills and its up to the other dog’s owner if they choose to pay. Once my parents got there, the only person who would talk to them was this man. He showed no empathy however was better dad (probably because its a gentleman to gentleman, not me a young female). He went from recommending vet treatment to “if it was my dog I wouldn’t even bother bringing him to the vet”. The rest of the staff who have always been super warm and welcoming, avoided them like the plague as if told not to talk. It later came out (by another employee) that this rotweiler had been boarding with them for a week and once released into the daycare play group, he went right for my dog and attacked (not a fight). Once at the vet, it was found that he had not one but TWO puncture holes (the one on his back and ANOTHER by his lung that was far worse). Given the locations, it had to be two bites. Luckily, he did not need stitches just antibiotics. Overall, the vet said he was very lucky and it could have been a very different story. After the vet, we called Camp to update. The SAME MAN answered the phone and did not care about there being two puncture holes and almost seemed bothered that we called to update them. Camp sent me a generic email asking for an internal review (which they have done in the past periodically and I have ALWAYS given very high marks). This time however I gave them a very poor rating and a long review explaining my experience. Once over the shock, I was calmer about the incident (they are dogs, things happen). It was more about the way it was handled, lack of empathy and the rude/degrading manor towards me, THE OWNER. I never received a call nor a response to the point that I CALLED Camp to talk to a manager. The manager was very sweet and apologized for how I was treated. I explained that given our history we would like to come back but the experience left me hesitant. She said she would talk to the owners as I felt as a business owner you would want to know about such an experience with a long term customer. A few days later, the same manager called to tell us that “the owners decided it was best that we part ways”. NOT because they were worried about how my dog would react with other dogs BUT BECAUSE of my honest internal review I left them. Turns out this man is one of the owner’s fathers and they did not appreciate the feedback. So…after being a customer for over 3 years and spending around 10k with them (estimated based on camp packages and grooming bills) we were NO LONGER WELCOMED due to an INTERNAL review they didn’t like. Beware, they care only to a certain point. When you need them to care the most they will discard you the minute they don’t like what you have to say.
Our pups love staying with April! They feel like home sleeping in her bed! Great care & she always sends photos & videos so we feel like we’re with them!
April is the best doggy caregiver, she is so wonderful with our beloved cavaliers!!
A wonderful place to have your dog have loving fun!!!
Called multiple times and left several messages, but never got a call back.
I was searching for a place to board my dog recently and came across Wagging Tails. What a find! April is absolutely perfect and a true dog lover. The arrangements were exactly what I was looking for – no kennels or dog runs, a whole lot of social interaction between the dogs, an acre to run – he loved it! The dogs are treated like family and get personal attention from April. I would highly recommend Wagging Tails to anyone who needs a good, caring, loving place for their pet(s).
My dog knows wagging tails as the fun place she goes to meet her friends. I am worry free leaving my Madam B at a loving home where she is safe and happy!! She is truely wagging her tail after a day at April's and I get to enjoy the video of her play day.
Best dog care ever!!!!
Thumbs way up !
AJ has provided excellent service for myself and my dogs for over over 12 years now! I have a very hectic work schedule and AJ is always there for my pup when I can’t be. He’s flexible and able to help out even if it is last minute. There isn’t anything AJ won’t do to ensure your dogs get the best care and for that reason I would highly recommend his services.
Recently we went on vacation and struggled to find a boarder that didn't use cages and would care for Violet like we do. We found in Top Dog Pet Care. Highly recommend and we will use them everything. Thank you AJ/Top Dog.
I’ve been using AJ to feed my fish when I’m not able to. Very trustworthy, flexible, and affordable. There’s no one else I’d use, AJ the best around!
Best ever! They care for your dog like family. My Eddy is as happy with AJ as he is at home Always on time and always caring!
AJ from Top Dog is exceptional with my dog, Bear. Bear is 14 years old and has a heart condition. AJ knows just how far Bear can go and makes his walk fun with a bit of exercise. Top Dog is the only one I trust with my fur baby!!!
I highly recommend Top Dog Pet Care. AJ is very reliable and completely professional. He is flexible to my schedule and my dog loves him!
Wonderful and professional service at a great price with flexible hours to accommodate busy work schedules. Whether I'm running late at work, or leaving on vacation, I know my dog is in safe hands. I would highly recommend Top Dog to anyone in Monmouth County.
Very affordable and flexible. Works around my busy schedule so my two young labs aren’t home alone without walks for too long. I don’t have to worry about leaving them when I vacation either. Would recommend Top Dog if you care about your pets when you can’t be around them.
Very accommodating and professional! Always willing to work around our schedule. Great communication. Would highly recommend AJ and his service!
Very accommodating and professional! Flexible and able to work with my hectic schedule. Will absolutely trust AJ with my fur babies again. Would Definitely recommend!!
Great group of people at this company. They are accommodating, professional and trustworthy, we have been using them for almost 4 years. Our first dog needed special attention in his old age and they provided every bit of the extra care he needed lovingly for that we are eternally grateful. With our new dog they provide the same great service and he loves going on extra walks with them. The owners are great people and the staff is wonderful. Thank you river run !
Scott and his team are very nice and caring. Scott stayed with my dogs overnight. Before he stayed at our house he came to our home and met our dogs. After Scott left I immediately felt more comfortable leaving my dogs home. He stayed in touch with us throughout the stay and Was amazing with my needy dogs. Thank you Scott and River Run Pet Sitters. I will absolutely be using them again.
Excellent. Very responsive and they take the time to match your dog(s) with a walker. Their website to manage visits, crsdit card payments and back up walkers make it all very easy to manage pet walking and sitting.
I am very happy with River Run! They take such good care of my dog.
I am so pleased with Scott and his team at River Run Pet Sitters. I was staying in Long Branch for a long weekend and needed a dog walker for multiple visits. From the moment I contacted him he handled my dog walking needs professionally and with great understanding Then he teamed me and my 18 week old puppy up with Donna. She is a dream!! She treated us with such warmth and care . She really went above and beyond with my little guy. This was an A+ experience. I highly recommend River Run and Donna . It felt so good to know that my puppy was being taken care of so beautifully .
Great owners who really care about their staff and care given to the customers, I highly suggest them!
I can't say enough good things about River Run! We adopted a rescue 3 years ago and brought in River Run to provide daily walks. The dog walkers have been just awesome with our Luna. So much so she's grown quite attached to her favorite dog walker, Katie. When Katie is out, the owner, Scott, will walk Luna. It's a pretty special company when the owner fills in!! They take great care of Luna, always making sure she's happy and comfortable on her walks. I trust them with my Luna. Dogs are a great judge of character...she knows good people when she sniffs them! I highly recommend Scot and his team!
Kristin watched our baby while we were at a wedding and it couldn’t have been a better experience. You can tell that she is an animal expert and our dog really enjoyed her stay. 10/10 would recommend.
Kristin and Sky took wonderful care of our little dog, Amélie over a weekend! We truly appreciate all their thoughtfulness and professionalism watching over our sweet pup! Highly recommend.
What a great place for your furry family members. One of our pups is very nervous around people she doesn't know. as soon we walked in I could tell she was right at ease.We are so happy we found "Love Me Right Pet Care". we will recommend them to anyone.
Great job watching my 2 horses. One horse had a recent ligament injury that required some specialized care, and they did a fantastic job with her. I would definitely rexommend Love Me Right Pet Care!
Best service and best care i've received the personalization you feel leaving your dog it's truly comfortable
She was very professional and and an excellent job I'll will recommend everyone to her what an awesome job
Best Service ever! My pup loves her, and she helped me crate trained him, since I had no idea what to do. I was grateful for the help.
Great place to go and get a variety of items.
It's awesome definetly recommended
Very clean,organized,quiet & supervised properly.
Happy Tails is the NUMBER ONE dog camp out there! My dog Tez is in love with the counselors! (Especially Irving!). I’ve sent him to several other camps and this one is by far the best. They are organized, timely, respectful and overall just so easy to work with and it’s been really a pleasure getting to know both teddy and Irving. I don’t leave Rover with just anyone but I know that when Happy Tails picks him up he’s safe and going to have the best time! They send me pictures throughout the day and give him awesome healthy treats. Really really A+ all around for happy tails! Will definitely keep using them.
I am so happy I found happy tails. They take such great care of my Labrador They send me updates throughout the day and my Rocco is always excited to go the next day. Highly recommend the happy tails team
I was lucky enough to win a contest for happy tails camp and the rest is history. We fell in love! Irving and teddy have such immense care for each dog. They post videos all day so you’re able to watch your dog play. Every chance we get we sign up our dog. We know she’s in great hands and having the best time ever !!!
I go to the park he brings his dogs very frequently. If he brings your dog to the dog park, he does not pay attention to the dogs at all. Most times it’s 1 person to watch 8-10 dogs. I also saw his “Happy Tails” van here in the summer months when it was 95+ degrees on TURF. Imagine how hot that is for the poor dogs paws. He leaves poop all over the turf, and on his phone 90% of the time. Hence why there’s poop everywhere. I also watched a dog get stuck on the other side of the fence & barking to come back in. He never noticed because he was glued to his phone while the dog was barking & begging to come back in. As a dog owner myself, I would never trust my two with his care.
I was looking for a reliable, safe, and fun doggy day camp for my puppy and I found that in @Happytails. I trust the owners and staff to give my Vizsla the outside and socialization time he needs and watching him on their Instagram stories is always enjoyable. Thank you Happy Tails Dog Camp.
Amazing! Best dog camp in NY/NJ!! So happy my dog gets the chance to actually be outdoors and run around! The team is so friendly too!
Happy tails takes such good care of our pup. I don’t have to worry about her at all.. always in the best hands
Rio is excited to go every morning and is exhausted when he comes home, he sleeps like a baby. Really responsible and trustworthy people. Can't recommend enough
Best dog camp in the world. No one else does what they do. My dog Lampert gets so excited when they pull up
Proud to be a part of the Happy Tails community in both NYC and NJ. Barkey is always super excited when he hears the van pull up! He also absolutely loves the HT jerky. As a dog-dad I proudly rock the merch at the park too. Customer for life :)
I've contracted with Cherie on three different occasions for over one week each time to cat sit. She is very prompt, leaves the feeding station clean, and maintains a clean litter box. Cherie has been very flexible in showing up on the day a holiday falls but most importantly, she texts me on how things are going. That gives me a great level of comfort since my cat is a little particular! Cherie also has no qualms in administering medicine or additional ingredients to food. She's very pleasant to deal with and works with your schedule. Thanks so much Cherie!!
I have been using Cherie to care for our Dog whenever we go away for over 3 years. . Our experience is always wonderful. Our Dog is so excited when she comes. I leave my dog with Cherie because it gives me peice of mind when I am away knowing she is caring for him and it is a wonderful alternative to a kennel. He gets to stay in his own home and gets the very best of care. Would never use anyone else.
This is the place to leave your pet when you have to be away from them! Cherie is so loving and warm. My husband and I could never leave our 2 dogs (boxer and frenchie/pug) in a boarding kennel. Just the thought of them having to be caged at some point breaks our hearts. Aunt Maggie's is the perfect alternative. No cages here! This is my first Google review, normally I don't write reviews, but we were so impressed with Cherie I just had to do it. We definitely, highly recommend Aunt Maggie's and give it a 5 star rating! Cherie goes that extra mile! We just loved our experience and so did our 2 girls!
I am extremely disappointed in the service provided by Cherie. I had a family emergency and conducted a phone interview and I was truly impressed. She stated that she would be at my house in the morning and at night to care for my pet. She asked me to leave the money on the table for the days she would be taking care of my dog. I thought, great, I would not have to worry. She showed up on time the first night, collected the money which I left on the kitchen. The next morning she did not show up at her scheduled 7:00 a.m. time. I called and texted her repeatedly. It was not until 11:45 a.m. that she showed up after I sent a text stating that I was going to call the police for theft of services. When I spoke with her she stated that she could not sleep at 3:00 a.m. so she took something to help her rest. I find this completely unprofessional and unreliable. What is more, it is unclear if she ever took the dog for a walk considering that the harness was in the same spot that we left it and her collar was left outside on the deck.... She also stated that she would contact me with texts, phone calls, and pictures about her time with my dog. The only phone call I received was from the alarm company because she could not reset the alarm. I never got a phone call to discuss the lack of service, which completely blows my mind. I would keep looking for a walker to care for your animal.
There is no other person I would leave my 2 dogs with other than Cherie! She is kind and caring and my dogs just love her. I highly recommend using her for dog sitting or dog walking...love her!
I have been using Aunt Maggie's Pet Sitting for three years now. She is extremely reliable and both of my dogs love her. I highly recommend her.
Cherie is reliable, caring and a great pet sitter! I will definitely use her in the future.
CHERI IS FABULOUS!! I have 5 cats indoor plus a few Feral's that stop by for a meal. She took fantastic care of all of my pets. She is reliable, honest, and the feeding station was cleaner than I keep it. The litter was clean. The trash was even gone and all of the car dishes were washed and dried and stacked neatly. I would recommend her to anyone who treasures their pets!
I live in New York City and have a bull dog named Martin and a miniature Poodle named Isabella. I found Aunt Maggies pet sitting when I came to the shore for vacation. Could not have been more happy with my experience. Everyone was so sweet and loving towards my dogs. Plus they were extremely flexible. I will definitely bring my dogs back again.
Great place - fantastic people.
