I felt very comfortable and welcomed in Joanne and Ken's beautiful home. The cats, Chloe and Charlie, are awesome and very easy to care for. I would love to return to this housesit.
Tiff and Bo are wonderful and loving dogs, they love a fuss and a bit of a play as well as amazing snuggles. They were no trouble at all to look after. We missed them as soon as we left and would happily sit for them again. Louise and Patrick were a fantastic couple and a pleasure to deal with. The housesit went like clockwork and the instructions left were detailed and easy to manage. Lovely house in a great location with easy access to great walks for the dogs.
We didn’t meet Emily but communication before and during the sit was excellent - very clear instructions and Emily was very responsive and friendly. She even left some of her lovely chocolate for us when we arrived! Poppy and Otto are absolutely gorgeous dogs - so friendly and affectionate - and very well behaved. We loved them the moment we met them! They didn’t even bark as we arrived - just very waggy tails! The contrast between them was very funny - Otto is a really big tall lab and Poppy is a micro dog! The first walk I took them on was so funny - watching the minuscule Poppy trying to leap through the long grass to keep up with the racehorse speed of the sleek Otto! I was laughing all the way. They were on their leads just to go past the sheep and lambs in the neighbouring farms field but the rest of the time they were off. I was worried the energetic Otto would take off and be difficult to get back but he was so good - racing off yes - but always racing back again when I called or whistled. They were a joy to walk and a joy to be with for our brief stay. We were very lucky with the weather - 2 dry days of sunshine meaning I could be outside with them often enjoying the lovely garden - playing ball/fetch with Otto and watching Poppy exploring the bluebells (she’s so small it was like she was in a forest!). We miss them already!
it was great to stay at Michelle's apartment and sit her cats. First the information I received was clear and precise, all was well described. The apartment was very clean, cozy and super location (park in the back yard and just an easy tram ride away from the train station and downtown Basel). The cats are lovely and "made me feel welcome" :). Would come back anytime Michelle would have me again.
Katie made me feel super welcomed with a thoughtful treat she left for me. She was always available and even made sure to contact maintenance right away when I had a minor incident (at 6am!). Her place has a gorgeous view and is walking distance to everything you may need. Also train station and bus stops are within minutes. Bonding with Marla was a bit of a challenge for me since she’s quite feisty. Milo was more friendly and welcoming. They’re both very independent cats though. Just make sure Milo doesn’t eat Marla’s food because it makes him sick Also litter boxes needed to be cleaned at least twice a day since it’s a small space and smells can get strong. It was a really good experience overall and I highly recommend it.
Where to begin.... such a wonderful sit with the gorgeous, gentle giant Marlo. Rosie and her lovely family were so welcoming on the day of our arrival, we felt super comfortable with everything and their home is immaculate and very spacious. Marlo is the perfect gentleman, we had the most fantastic time taking care of him and hanging out in Castle Rock. We would absolutely love to return, should the opportunity arise!

Our 7 month old puppy LOVES going to daycare and comes home absolutely exhausted which is a bonus for us! We love how he is socializing with dogs his age and size, as well as with all of the humans there (he can be a little nervous around people, so this has helped him so much). I leave for work early in the morning, so D’Doggy Daycare’s schedule works perfect for us. Everyone who works there is amazing, and Jess, the owner, is always available to answer any questions- she even sends pictures throughout the day. D’Doggy Daycare is very and also very affordable. We feel so at ease knowing that we also have a place to board him when we go away!
D’Doggy Daycare has got to be one of the best alternatives I’ve come across when it came time to find a place for my dog Larry to stay while I went on a business trip. The Staff kept me updated with texts, pics showing my boy enjoying himself playing with other dogs. I was always so nervous to leave Larry for a trip but these guys made it possible. If you’re ever in need of a day care or room & board for your pup, I 1000% recommend D’Doggy Daycare.
My sweet Monti boarded here for a few days and had a blast! I got daily pictures and anytime I was curious on an update, they were able to send me a quick text! He was such a dusty boi running around outside but they were able to give him a bath before I picked him up and he looked amazing! I wish there was a way I could watch him 24/7 here but thats just me missing him. They made sure he got all his meals and treats throughout the day. He was so tired once he got in the car!! Would definitely recommend them to others!
We recently moved back to the area and were looking for a place to board our dog, Finn, while we were on vacation and luckily found D’Doggy Daycare! We were nervous leaving Finn but were so happy with the professionalism, cleanliness and overall care here! They were so accommodating of our schedule, kept us updated with texts while we were away, sent pics of Finn with his new friends and the facility is very clean! Finn had a wonderful stay and I highly recommend D’Doggy Daycare for anyone looking for a place to board your pup!!
D’Doggy daycare is a great place to take your dog for daycare! My boyfriend and I have been babysitting my family dog while my parents are on vacation and we both work during the day, so I was looking for a place to take Jax to daycare. Luckily I found D’Doggy daycare. Their prices are really great, the employees are so friendly and supportive, and you get sent updates and photos throughout the day. Having Jax there makes me feel better during the work day that he’s socializing with other pups and getting attention. I feel very comfortable with them and would easily use them again in the future! Jax comes home and is tired after his day of play and has a lot of fun with them! They take really good care of my baby Jax and I’m so grateful for them and their amazing services!
For the first time ever my fiancé and I had no one to pup sit out precious Akita while we were out of time. Thankfully we heard through the gravefines about this place and we were really happy we did. The workers were amazing and the place was clean and tidy and more importantly safe.
We only had there one day for 7 hours. They sent us pictures and video of our dog playing well with others. He came home exhausted and went to sleep. We were very pleased and will use them again.
Jesse and the rest of the D'Doggy Daycare took wonderful care of our 160lbs Cane Corso for 4 days while we vacationed. As you might imagine I had many concerns regarding their ability to control and maintain my Cane Corso happy. They loved on him and gave him the best possible experience while we were away (this was the first time we had done this!). I would trust them with him again and encourage those with larger dogs to consult with them and consider them for an ideal day care for your large pet - whether it be for day care or boarding support. Would highly recommend!
We’ve never left our pup with anyone but family and I was very nervous about attempting this because my dog has never been around other dogs before in this type of setting. The girls made me feel so at ease. The whole process was so comfortable and reassuring. I felt so good leaving him and loved getting pics of him playing with other dogs and having fun! When I picked him up he was so happy! And tired from all his play. I highly highly recommend anyone who is looking for a place to care for their pup.
Wonderful experience at D’Doggy Daycare so far! The staff here are very kind, helpful, and responsive. I receive pictures and videos of my puppy Fiona whenever she’s at daycare, even if I don’t request them. Fiona absolutely loves it too. She gets very excited as soon as she figures out where we’re going. The socialization has been great for her! 10/10 recommend.
I researched a few places to bring my German Shepherd as I had to go away to attend to a family matter. This place does not disappoint. Top Notch! Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable. They treated my boy like family. Lois was great and my boy instantly felt at ease with her. Simply the best in the area.
Definitely liked Hounds Town and the organized way they handle the dogs. I appreciate that they did a Temper Test to see who and how my dog reacts with. Also love the fact that they are out playing all day! Looking forward to having my little guy back there to play soon!
Give Alyssa and Dan a raise! 😉 Seriously though, Alyssa walked me through everything from the minute I called for the first time to inquire, to my puppy’s first day at day care, and she has been there for us ever since! She always has a smile on her face when I see her at the front desk and she made me feel comfortable from the very beginning leaving my puppy at HT. Another employee who is always smiling and very welcoming is Dan. He always goes out of his way to give my dog affection and attention to make her feel welcome and at home. I truly appreciate these two young professionals making my puppy and I feel comfortable and at home at HoundsTown! Thank you to the HT team ❤️
They refused to complete a pet evaluation even though they had the availability to complete one. They stated that a pet evaluation is good for 6 months and that boarding availability was going to be available after December, so I requested to do a pet evaluation now so that when boarding does become available after December my dog can just come but they refused. I prefer a doggie daycare that’s willing to work with the client. This is not my first time trying to get my dog into this daycare but this is certainly my last. Good Luck!
HT Ronkonkoma has taken such amazing care of our fur baby, Clay! He's a pretty anxious pup, but they always greet him so happily and he definitely enjoys his time with his friends! They go out their way to keep your dog safe & happy! They truly are the best and we appreciate all of their love & care!💖 …
I have absolutely no clue how this place has so many positive reviews. DO NOT bring your dog here. Firstly, the dogs are kept in empty pens with no toys, nothing to do, the “movie” TV is never on. Second, it is FILTHY in there. You can smell it as soon as you open the door. I picked up my dog from daycare yesterday and he was so disgusting. They gave him to me wet (I did not ask for a bath) and I was told, “We were trying to clean him off”. Well, they did an extremely poor job of that. His legs and belly were all YELLOW as if he was peed on and he smelled RANCID. I had to bathe him when I got home and then when I called to try to ask what happened to him I was told “He was playing in the water bowl”. I’m sorry but he would not smell like sewage and be yellow from playing in a water bowl. They told me they would do a better job wiping him in the future. Today I went back to drop him off for daycare again, and was trying to explain the situation to an employee, I was interrupted by the woman I spoke on the phone with. She said “Yes it was me you spoke with, he was just playing in the water bowl” again downplaying what happened. When I picked him up today and looked into the viewing window, the large dogs looked SO sad. They had not a toy in sight. They were all in a pen crying and barking with urine and feces on the floor. When I got my dog he was very wet again, but at least not yellow this time, but he smelled very strongly of whatever “dog cologne” they use to mask the rancid urine smell. I once again bathed him as soon as I got home because I was gagging at the smell of him, and will not be taking him back to that dump.
Hounds Town Ronkonkoma is the only place I will trust to watch my two dogs, whether for a day or overnight. They are attentive and caring - most of the staff even know my boys by name. The enrichment these dogs get is like nothing else when they're staying at Hounds Town!
Excellent experience. Staff was very nice, handled my eight month old puppy well. Looking forward to her first day there.
We just brought our baby Otis Montgomery there for a play date. Needless to say we were super nervous leaving him. Hounds Town put us at ease with a few videos on Facebook. He was playing and having a blast with other pups. We are going out of town for a few days. Now we can leave with confidence that out baby is well taken care of
The 60 minute puppy socialization class was exactly what my 4 months old Elon needed. He got about 50 minutes of playtime with other puppies while I got information on the benefits of good nutrition fort my dog, grooming and socializing my dog.
We needed help with our 14 month old rescue, Obi. Basic puppy issuse - digging, jumping, excessive play biting and bolting out of the gate or door. Obi spent 3 weeks with James and his awesome trainers. Obi came home a different pooch. He is now well behaved and listens to our commands. Digging has almost disappeared, stays by the door or gate when told to stay, drops the ball when playing fetch. We were also taught proper techniques to continue his awesome progress. Thank you James and your trainers! Also a special 'Thank You' to Amanda, Jame's assistant, you answered every question and concern we had in a very understanding and timely manner, you also put up with my almost daily texts asking about Obi....Thank You!!!! I recommend Pawfect Solutions and their amazing staff.
James and his team are top notch. They spent extra time training my dog and she has come out completely changed. He focuses more on the behavior and progress of the dog rather and will take the necessary time needed to make sure they are properly behaved and trained. I will also be boarding both my dogs with him when I go out of town because I don’t trust anyone else with them.
James is great! Knows exactly what he’s doing. Before James my dog (Dottie) was all over the place while on walks and would try and walk me while I was supposed to be waking her. She also would not let you open the door when someone was trying to come in or make a delivery. By the end of prefect solution dog training my dog was walking by my side during walks and she would go and sit down in her bed when someone is at the door. Great company James is definitely a dog whisperer.
The ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!! James and his team are amazing with my dog (and all the dogs there)! Brody knows when we are getting close and once we arrive he starts crying like a baby if they don’t come out quick enough to get him. James has such a passion for our babies and for that I’m super grateful! Thank you to everyone at Pawfect for keeping our babies safe, happy and showing them so much love!
James is a very kind and skilled dog trainer, but his communication and handling of appointments is poor. Between cancelled and rescheduled appointments it was very hard to keep up with a proper schedule. There was constant issues between the handling of money owed, scheduling appointments that fit his schedule and obligations, and making sure we were on top of the amount of training days agreed upon.The organization was beyond poor sadly. Another issue I had was one appointment specifically James brought an assistant, and instead of properly training our dog and taking his time to treat his specific needs, he talked to his assistant the entire time with minimal words or corrections said on a near 45 minute walk. Basically, I paid over $120.00 to walk my dog, which I do nearly everyday. Our dog made great progress under James truly, and I believe he is a great trainer, but I believe a lot of things could have been done better in both organization, and proper training to better assist our dogs specific needs.
We boarded our Bernese for the first time this spring with James and were a little nervous because our pup is a bit of a wimp when it comes to playing with other dogs. He matched him up with a perfect doggy friend and he looked so happy in the check in videos! James’ assistant was also very responsive in our scheduling needs and flexible with changes we needed to make. Grounds are also very well kept!
I first found James through a work friend of mine a few years ago. I’ve signed used James multiple times and I can rest assured that my dog is perfectly fine and happy each and every time. Anytime my dog gets dropped off or picked up he’s either sad to see James leave or happy to see him come. Any questions or concerns I may have had are always addressed and the area the dogs stay in and play in is beautiful. My big German shepherd can be a handful at times but James is always in charge with my dog and I can leave him with James and have complete peace of mind.
James helped train our now two year old when he was a puppy. Our very skittish rescue also seemed to warm up to him fast. We used Pawfect solutions during our wedding weekend. We needed someone we trusted with our two crazies. They both did great. James put a ton of work into the grounds and it’s beautiful.
James is amazing! He completely turned my dog into the perfect dog. He and his team took the time to not only train her but also teach me what I needed to know. His knowledge surpassed anything I expected. I did board and train and it was the best thing I could have done for both her and I. I sent Gracie there thinking she was “aggressive” as I was worried she and my daughter were not getting along. She was nipping at my daughter. Gracie came home the most loving dog I have ever known. Everyone in my neighborhood loves her and come running to say hello when they see her. She is just as excited to see them! Gracie loved being there so much I even boarded her there when I went on vacation. I plan to use him every time I go away. Thank you James for taking the stress out of my life when it came to Gracie. I honestly have the perfect dog now. James and his staff are truly the best!
After careful research in trying to find training for my new fur baby, I am so grateful to have found Pawfect Solutions Dog Training. After meeting James at the facility, I felt so at ease leaving Nino with him. Nino has been transformed into a loving and obedient dog. I can never thank James for what he has done. I Am grateful that Nino has found a place where he can continue to learn as he grows. Highly recommend!!!! Thank you!!!
Laurie and her team were excellent. They kept me up to date with my fur baby’s progress during his stay which put my heart at ease while away on vacation. Sent me lots of pics. I mentioned his ‘gotcha day’ was coming and they went above and beyond and threw a big ‘pawrty’ bash for him along some friends and tons of present. Love it. Highly recommended!!!
Dog Days Pet Care is the only place I will trust with my sweet boy Buddy. Laurie, Cliff and their staff are amazing, loving caregivers. My pup loves it there. The pups have a great time playing in the beautiful yard. There are pools to cool off on hot days. We love receiving daily updates and pictures of Buddy playing with other dogs, which he rarely gets to do. Having peace of mind and knowing Buddy is safe and cared for makes going away so much easier and more enjoyable. Thank you Dog Days🐶❤️🐾
The entire team at Dog Days Pet Care are AMAZING! We couldn't be happier with the service and loving care that they provide our dog. Each team member is so warm, personable, and truly invested in the care and well-being of the dogs. They send photo updates each day, and are always responsive and prompt in their communication. We have such peace of mind when our dog is with them, knowing that he is cared for and safe. I would highly recommend any of their services!
Pretzel had an awesome day at "Dog Days Pet Care and loved playing with the other pets". Amber took great care of him and the day care was emaculate. I am so happy with the care he received and thank my dear friend for steering me in the right direction for Pretzel's care. I feel so much at ease leaving Pretzel in their care for our vacation. I cannot thank the team enough!! Thank you, thank you!!!!!
Dog Days Pet Care is hands down the best! I have been using Laurie and her team for the last few years and I cannot recommend them enough!! They go above and beyond with all of the services they provide.
If we could give 10 stars we would! We booked the Almost Overnight service for 7 days while we were out of the country. Laurie and her team were so professional. They went above and beyond to make sure that our pup was taken care of and happy. They followed the directions we left perfectly. We got a pupdate twice a day with so many pictures and videos which showed our pup playing, eating, drinking, napping, peeing, etc. We HIGHLY recommend Dog Days and we will be utilizing more of their services in the future. 🐶♥️
I have to say that this is by far the best experience I have had at a doggy day care. I contacted Laurie once I found her on google and she immediately set up a meet and greet which I loved because I would like for my dogs and I to meet with the person that is taking care of them. During the meet and greet she assured that all the dogs she cared for are vaccinated. Laurie’s home and back yard is big, beautiful and most importantly clean! You would not be able to tell that she has dogs in her home because her home did not smell! The first thing I notice when I go to a dog boarding is the awful smell of dog! Not here everything was clean, neat and tidy! The fencing around the yard is very secure. When I dropped my two dogs off Laurie welcomes them with hugs and kisses and I knew that my dogs would be in good hands. She made sure all my questions and worries were answered and sent me updates while I was on my honeymoon everyday. Everyday I received pictures of my fur babiesss! I was so grateful and most importantly stress free. I actually got to enjoy my vacation this time! Every time I go away I am always at a panic because I’m so scared that they aren’t being treated well. This vacation was different, my dogs even looked different when I picked them up. They came home happy and smelling of fresh berries. Laurie you truly have a love for dogs and it shows! Thank you for having my dogs and treating them like family. I am so honored to have such an amazing person to care for my dogs when I need a quick getaway! Xoxoxo Yisell, Justin, Mia, & Messiah
I cannot recommend Dog Days enough. We had the Almost Overnight package with a few additional visits while we were away for a few days and Tara, Laurie, and Monica took amazing care of our two husky boys! We had never left them alone like this before and were nervous that they would be upset or destructive while we were away, but we came home to a clean house (thanks to Laurie for vacuuming the weekend's tumbleweeds during one of her visits) and very happy dogs! The Dog Days team was in frequent communication about when they were coming and gave an extremely thorough report after each visit (complete with pictures) that left us so at ease. The team also adapted seamlessly when we had a surprise paw injury right before our trip that required a cone and medication for one of the dogs. Your pets are in amazing hands with Dog Days!
What a wonderful service. Laurie and her professional team took my last minute request for my 2 dogs and we couldn't be more pleased. We were hesitant to leave our dogs at the vet or boarded somewhere with other dogs since they get easily stressed. We are so happy we found Dog Days for in-home pet care, our dogs were stress free and their routines were able to be maintained with 4 visits a day. All feeding and routine instructions were followed, plenty of pictures and updates were sent during our trip to give us peace of mind. We will definitely be using this terrific service again and would 100% recommend anyone who hates leaving their pets for an extended period of time to use this service! Thanks again!
We brought our 3 1/2 yo dog here for the first time and she loved it. Laurie went over all the requirements and their resort was very clean and spacious. Her and her husband are true dog lovers. They sent us pictures throughout Lucia’s daily visit and we were happy. We will definitely going back! They even gave us a gift bag when we picked her up. Thank you Laurie and Cliff for making Lucia’s visit a memorable one!
Love & Care is wonderful! Chris is always sweet and profession and super accommodating with our ever changing schedules. We have an amazing dog walker who comes daily to walk our lab mid-afternoon, as my fiancé and I work long hours. Our puppy is so well cared for and our home is very respected. Because of Love & Care, we can sleep soundly at night knowing that our highly energetic lab will be taken for a walk (safely) and properly cared for when we are unable to. We would highly recommend Love & Care!
This is a fantastic service for mid day dog walking ! Everyone at Love & Care is professional, communicative, trustworthy and a reasonably priced option to ensure my dog is taken care of while I'm at work. They customize a plan that works with your schedule and have a flexible policy on cancellations in the event one needs to happen. Leaving doggy daycare was a challenge for us when we moved out of the city, but feel so fortunate that Love N Care provides great service !!!
Love and Care is so wonderful, we can't think about our life without their help! My husband and I both work full time so knowing that Love and Care is there everyday to take care of our two puppies is such a great sense of relief. They love Tommy who comes by everyday and spends quality times with them. And whenever we need an unexpected visit at the last minute, they are always there, they never have any problems fitting it into their schedule. Chris, the owner of Love and Care is always very pleasant and polite. We highly recommend Love and Care to every pet parent!
Love & Care is everything you could want in a professional pet service company! I work long hours during the day and need someone to walk my dog mid-day. My Love & Care walker provides the companionship and exercise my furry baby needs while I am away. I would recommend Love & Care's services to any Pet Parent!
We've used Love and Care Pet Professionals for several years and they have consistently delivered outstanding service. We have had no issues with them. Our pet sitter, Angela, is always on time and Ernie, our Italian Greyhound, looks forward to her visits. They are always responsive when we need to cancel or add visits, even at the last minute. Highly recommended!!!
We have used Love & Care repeatedly and have been very happy every time. We get detailed notes about each visit and every time we return, not only are our animals happy, our home is well cared for. They are above and beyond when it comes to having someone come into your home. Very respectful. We have 2 cats and a puppy and it's far better than any kennel could ever hope to be. They get to stay in the comfort of their own home and still get personal, one on one attention. You never have to worry about picking up pests or coughs or sickness like you do with kennels. They have also been extremely accommodating with last minute changes as well as always being available even on busy holiday weekends. The administration is very well run and I get a response the same day as I contact them. I highly recommend Love & Care Pet Professionals.
Love and Care has been taking care of our dogs for the past two years. They are very reliable. I feel very secure knowing that the same person we can trust comes to our house and takes care of our furry loved ones. They have been very responsive when booking our care provider. The care provider herself keeps in contact with us while we're away to tell us how the dogs are doing. We couldn't be happier.
I wholeheartedly could not imagine Love & Care not part of mine and dogs' lives. Our dog walker for the last four years is now a great friend who treats our three dogs better than we do. I feel blessed we have her in our lives. I never feel not informed if there are changes in the schedule as things are so well organized and run like a well-oiled machine. I have and would recommend L&C to anyone.
I've been using Love & Care Pet Professionals for several months now. I am very pleased with the service! They are very reliable and my puppy loves when Michael comes to take him for a walk! I would recommend them to anyone!
It has been easy to schedule pet transportation with Love & Care. They are always on time. My 160 pound Mastiff Boomer is very friendly but is stubborn about getting in the car. Brian has always been very patient and helpful getting Boomer in and out of the car, especially after his surgery when he was not felling his best. Boomer likes Brian. Love & Care is dependable and has been a big help.
Oh my goodness! My Zain went there for the first time and he had so much fun. First, to get him acclimated, the amazing staff allowed him to sniff butts with another pup. It was like a match made in puppy heaven. My pup loved it and I decided to let him stay. Like any neurotic pup mom, I called to check on him. They said he was great. I was shocked! My energetic pup had found his community. Then to make matters best, he enjoyed a Pup-a-ciño since it was pupacino Fridays. Zain ended the day with an exit bath and he had a blast. I highly recommend Houndstown!!!
Wonderful experience! We have 2 puppies and we were going away for the holiday weekend. I called a week before and asked if they were available for boarding. Luckily they fit me in and our puppies had an amazing time. Staff is super friendly and answer any questions or worries you may have. From the photos you could tell they were having fun. Put our mind at easy leaving them there. So happy we found a place where our dogs can stay and be happy. Thank you again 😃
Hounds Town Commack Rd is the BEST home away from home for my exuberant , large, goofy, playful dog! Ludwig LOVES going to HoundsTown and seeing and playing with all of his canine and human friends. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff especially. They are so sweet, helpful, friendly, conscientious, and know how to let dogs be dogs! The dogs are genuinely SO HAPPY there!! I don’t know what I would do without them. HoundsTown is truly a saving grace for Ludwig’s mental and physical health. And… I’m a veterinarian, and I would only let my dogs stay somewhere that I 110% trust. HoundsTown Commack and all the gals and guys who work there, are that place.
The evaluation process went well. Meeting the excellent staff gave me a good vibe. I, felt that I was bringing my dog to a safe environment. Viewing the other customers bringing in their dogs, just reinforced that good vibe.
Nothing but amazing things to say about Hounds Town! They took such great care of my dog and made sure all my questions were answered when I dropped him off the first time. Everyone who works there is so friendly and they love every single dog! I can’t wait to bring my dog back here!
Winston is so excited to start his daycare here, can’t wait to play with other dogs
I absolutely love Hounds Town! Teri and Thomas are so nice and explain everything you need to know. My two goldens got picked up by the pet taxi for their first day of daycare. I can't tell you how convenient it is to have someone pick them up before i go to work and drop them off after I return home for the day. I really feel like I'm putting my kids on the bus for school and they just adore Thomas the owner who picks them up. I am a bit of a "helicopter mom" when it comes to my girls so knowing that their is a vet tech managing this location gave me such peace of mind. I also love that my girls always have someone to play with since the dogs being boarded play with the daycare dogs making this a fully interactive daycare. And, Teri the owner told me all about their 24 hour surveillance so if I ever chose to board my girls there I know they'd be safe. I cannot wait to get them groomed by their grooming department. The convenience of having them picked up from from my house for daycare, play all day, get a grooming then get dropped off exhausted and clean at the end of the day is a dream!
My year and half dog Atlas loves going here. He has the best time and he comes home tired. He is out for the rest of the night and most of the next day too. My favorite part is seeing pictures of Atlas on their Facebook page. He always has a goofy smile with his black tongue sticking out and my heart melts. Also love when they have events going on. Atlas loves going to daycare.
First time boarding our 7 month old pity & Hounds Town put any nerves I had to rest, they answered all questions I had on process + food + routine. They updated constantly with pictures and our pup looked beyond thrilled with her experience and love she was receiving. Would highly recommend!
Henry had an amazing first day - friendly and welcoming staff! He got to meet the grinch and pick out a stuffed animal. Now he’s pooped! Super convenient services also - going to be great when I commute into the city consistently in the new year!
finding a animal boarding facility u can trust is hard , You make the arrangements try to adhere to their guidelines , pay your fee , and hope u get your animal back healthy . Businesses like this one must think everybody is desperate and think we can be treated with disrespect and a condescending attitude and be back again . I don't think so , there are other options and we must use them and make a statement and drive these type of establishments to cease to have the privilege of having a business .I'm not done with narration of this place and I will continue to embellish more reasons why u should seek out better accommodations for your furry friends that are part of your family.In previous dealings with cozy noses ( yes went there more than once ) because I believe in second chances , My animal came back in need of a vet visit, a few times been talked to with disrespect . I'm hearing impaired and well not always getting what people take for granted what their saying is hitting home so I ask for a redo and get that's ok and don't get a proper explanation. Example left my animal with a toy from home to give a feeling of not everything unfamiliar in her temporary surroundings, because they don't know if your coming back . Than come back to pick her up and they say we don't give toys back , what??? Than get a surly employee chastising me about policy , No I call that incompetence and laziness among other things .They have lost this paying customer and hopefully give other current and potential customers some food for thought when they seek out a place of shelter for their extended family members
Boarded our less than one year old dog here, and he now has kennel cough. He was fully vaccinated and we never experienced this for the decade of using a different kennel with our other dogs. Disappointing and now we need to take him to the vet. Won't be using again.
From the second you walk into this establishment you know the kind of business they are. Cozy Noses takes pride on the services they provide for your fur baby. I was a complete nervous wreck leaving behind my 14 month old German Shepherd for the first time, and they made me feel at ease from day one. They were patient and very accommodating. They also answered every question I had, and kept in-touch letting me know how my baby was while I was away. The staff is extremely respectful and super nice and you can see they clearly love their job!! Also the place is spotless!!!! My baby was well taken care of and we all know what that means to us parents!!! Cozy Noses gets an A ++++ I wrote the same review on Yelp!!!
The folks have their process down which is good. They keep the safety of your loved one as their #1 concern...which it should be. However, my experience with my unique dog is I get the feeling my dog doesnt like it there, YMMV. He comes home looking like he hasn't slept in days, and has lost a few pounds. My dog is not really into other dogs and I'm sure the loud barking for others keeps him up at night. He's not a "cage" dog where he shares a chain link fence next to other potentially loud non stop barking dogs. We've stayed there maybe 4 to 5 stays and every time he gets home he crashes mid day to sleep and takes a few days to get back to his weight and eating. I'll lift up another rock and see what else is out there. YMMV.
Love this place. We used another place a few times and our dogs always came home shell shocked and lethargic. Every time they’ve come back from Cozy Noses they’ve been super happy. The other kennel also gave the wrong dog clearly labeled medicine and when they realized they then refused to give medicine period. Never a problem at Cozy Noses. They are super nice, take care of our dogs, are communicative, and very reasonable. The location is also great if you are flying out of Islip. I highly recommend Cozy Noses.
Cozy Noses was recommended to us by several different people who have boarded their dogs. The staff is helpful, knowledgeable and enjoy working with dogs. The facility is clean and large with a lot of availability. Because it is a big kennel, it can be noisy. The system at Cozy Noses is well organized for feeding, medication and special needs of the pets. A special playtime is available for an additional fee.
My neighbor had mentioned bringing her dogs here years ago and recommended it. My dog is VERY shy. She is a rescue and small. She has only boarded with my vet, once, and they stop doing boarding. With trepidation knowing her personality I brought her to cozy noses. I am so happy that I did. She received wonderful care and one of the staff members, Denise?,) fell in love with her and gave her more attention seeing how she was shying away from being with others. I highly recommend bringing your furry loved ones here. Everyone the is wonderful.
My friend boarded her dog here last month and when they picked up the dog she was shaking. They took her to the vet and she died within 2 hours! When they called cozy noses and asked what happened they said well one day she had diarrhea another day she wouldn’t eat and threw up bile… yet they never called the owner!
The staff is always so pleasant and they listen to what you are saying. My dog loves going there. Actually pulls me to get in whereas over other place I brought him to he kept riding around to get out. I highly recommend Cozy Noses.
We have been bringing our dogs to Cozy Noses for over a dozen years, maybe longer. We have always had positive experiences with boarding, playtime, or grooming services. My blue heeler cattledog mix and black lab always looked and acted happy upon pickup (the heeler might be a little hoarse, but she is a big barker at home too). The employees are always pleasant and understanding, and happy to see my pups when I bring them in. They are conscientious about taking care of the pets, and contacted my vet for advice and medication one time when it was needed. Very happy to recommend Cozy Noses for your family.
I have been using PUPP for years. Sue watched my late dogs Max and Simon many times. When my Max fell ill while I was away, she took him to the vet multiple times and nursed him through emergency eye surgery. She and Prince now watch my current dogs. Without exaggeration, my dogs love them more than they love me. When I pull up, my dogs run out of the car and don’t even look back. She is trusted with my most precious boys and I can’t say enough about the care they receive.
Suely and Prince are the best sitters you could find. They understand my dog’s personality and how to deal with her. She is now 13 years old and we have used this business for her entire life. Exemplary service, they treat your dog as their own. Highly recommend!
Simply stated; the absolute best! When it came time to find a place to watch my pup, Dax, I searched everywhere. Not many places were acceptable to me considering my pup was only four pounds. I found PUPP and instantly felt comfortable. Naturally I was extremely nervous leaving Dax for the first time. As my luck goes, soon after dropping Dax off, he had a medical emergency. Suley took care of it without hesitation. You would never get the care and compassion anywhere else. Suley and Prince will love your pets just as you do; if not more. Fast forward to now, my two pups go there anytime we need boarding. My dogs love going there and I love not having to worry. Suley and Dax have a special bond that he does not have with anyone else.
I had a great experience with Suely. She took care of my dog like no one else has done it before. She sent me daily updates, and was communicative at all times. If you want a place where they will take care of your furry animal and it will have the freedom to run in the backyard and enjoy with other animals don’t think twice and contact Suely. My husband and I love the experience, and we look forward to take our dog again to Pamper Ur Poochie.
We were very happy leaving our Kerry with Suely. She was very professional. Her daily updates about Kerry gave us great peace of mind allowing us to really relax and enjoy our vacation. Thank you to Suely and company!
Suely is the best of the best…you will never find a better place and more experience and lovely dog person for your poochie! My baby absolutely loves Suely so much! Through the years she would ask to go downstairs when a car remotely similar to Sue would park by, so much she loves Sue. She would be happier when she saw Sue than me, she couldn’t wait to leave our place and go hang out with Sue and the other poochies.❤️❤️❤️
Your dogs couldnt be in better hands, Suely is all about the pups, if you want to go away & have total piece of mind that your pups are taken care of then pamper ur poochie boarding parlor is the place for you 💟🐾😎 …
We’ve been using Suely and Prince for years for our finicky hounds. There is never a time that their care isn’t their top priority. Pictures and videos to show us they are doing great. When our greyhound had an issue they communicate and help resolve it. Going out of their way to buy new food and make sure he was comfortable. We love it there and won’t use anyone else. When your pups aren’t afraid or upset when they are dropped off you know they are in good hands.
Can’t thank Pamper Ur Poochie Boarding enough for taking the best care of our precious Phoebe this past week. Knowing our fur baby is in the best hands makes our vacation so relaxing. I love receiving daily photos and videos ❤️ Thank you again 🥰 🐾 …
There is no better feeling knowing you can leave your dog with someone like Suely and Prince . They will take care of your family pet as well as you do! Your dog will always be safe, loved, fed ,exercised, and played with while they are in the loving home of pamper your pooch boarding parlor. I highly recommend it.
