Mel exceeded my expectations as a house sitter and “mummy” to my furbabies. This was my first house sit experience and even though I had got to know Mel well over the past 18 months I was anxious to leave my animals after being with them 24/7 during the pandemic. I had booked Mel twice before but due to travel restrictions our holidays were cancelled. Mel is just incredible. She treated my home with such respect and my babies as if they were her own. Anyone who is lucky enough to book Mel is in for a treat. I honestly don’t know how I could use anyone else after this house sit.
It was our first time leaving Rosie with a sitter and Lynda was very patient, allowing her space and to warm up in her own time. Lynda even went as far to sleep on the sofa to keep Rosie company the first couple of nights when she wouldn’t go into the guest room with them. We also learnt that Rosie is a runner if given the chance and so they also had that stressful situation to deal with, which they did with aplomb. They kept the place clean and tidy and provided daily updates and photos. We were going to be late arriving home so they even stayed another night so Rosie wouldn’t be left alone. We would be happy to have Lynda and Bob return to look after Rosie.

Amazing place. My dog has changed dramatically in the most positive way since coming here. The staff is amazing kind and so knowledgeable. I recommend anyone looking for doggy daycare to give them a shot. We are eternally grateful for this place! Picture was taken by the staff and my pup is the black one. Look at those smiles.
We just picked up our German Shepherd, Odin, after a week long stay at Hickory. This is his second time boarding (hasn’t been boarded since 2022) since he is a very anxious dog. We were so happy to hear that Odin enjoyed his time at Hickory, he ate, took his meds, played and got along well with the staff. We also received an update mid week from his trainer, Gordon, which we appreciated! We felt like Odin was very well taken care of and safe throughout his stay! Knowing how well he was looked after we are more than comfortable coming back for daycare and boarding! Thank you for keeping our anxious boy happy and healthy!!
From rags to riches! Just took our labradoodle here for the first time and couldn’t be more pleased with them! First off, the haircut is the best he’s ever had. When I dropped him off, the groomer asked me how we wanted him done up. Gave them a couple requests and they were all filled perfectly. The staff was incredibly kind and responsive. They even took him out to go to the bathroom on their beautiful property. When picking him up, the groomer had me take a good look at the haircut and make sure everything was good. She noted that if I had recommendations or concerns for the next visit, she would take a note in their documents to ensure our wants and needs were met. Lastly, the cost of the full grooming was much less than I was expecting, since we have been paying significantly more for years at other groomers. 10/10 Can not recommend them enough!
Been taking our dog for grooming to this place for years. The staff really enjoy being with the dogs and do a great job — flexible to whatever you need. Highly recommend based on our experience.
I Just heard from the manager regarding the charge for the anal glands. She indicated that I should not have been charged for that and will be crediting me $25 toward the error made. Very much appreciated they're quick response and action! I took my small dog, a Yorkie poo, here for grooming and asked to have her bathed, hair cut, nails trimmed and to have her anal glands checked. She is 7 years old I have never been charged extra to have her anal glands checked and expressed! I expected to pay $65 for her grooming, which is very common, but was shocked when he told me there was an extra $20 to check and express the anal glands! I don't get it since every other groomer she has ever been at does that automatically🤷🏼♀️ I will not be returning here.
I took my Dog Ave there in January to have nails clipped and they were awesome. Ave is rescue dog and gets scared easy they were great with her, Had her back for full spa day on 4/7 and she could not wait to get in there and gives kisses.. totally awesome and they give great advice to question and concerns.. Never will go anywhere else…
Brought my dog here for a nail clipping for the first time and it went great! My dog does NOT like getting her nails done. Has to be muzzled, and given a sedative before hand because she is just that bad. But at hickory springs they just had a brand new harness installed for these kind of situations and it made a big difference! She was still a little crazy, but you can see the amount of care they put in to make sure she was calm and still do a good job on her nails which I really appreciate. They were friendly, talkative and patient with her. It was reasonably priced and I feel comfortable bringing my dog here again. I HIGHLY recommend them for any grooming needs!
BEST DECISION EVER TO MOVE TO HICKORY SPRINGS FARM OVER 20 YEARS AGO. We were referred to transfer to Hickory Springs by friends and they were right! I absolutely love and trust Hickory Springs Pet Farm . . . they are truly our extended family to our dog, Puff Daddy. They are kind and handle him with care. The entire staff has been wonderful for many many years - I have never been disappointed. (our Beloved Puff Daddy passed away right after his 18th birthday). The Hickory Spring Farm Team prepared me for the inevitable - they treated us with sympathy and kindness. The Groomer, Amy EXCEPTIONAL she is wonderful and very talented and so friendly. Della has always be a treasure to my family in making sure we get the best opportunities and pricing whenever we boarded Puff Daddy - she looks out for his best interests and always calls me whenever there is an issue to alert me - even if I am on vacation. Now they are taking care of my daughter's dogs: Elmo & Vida The exact same treatment - AWESOME CARE! I love it!
We kenneled our pups for a week. They were well cared for. Employee Cat was wonderful and full of good info. Upon registering out pups Della was super helpful and very friendly. The place is clean and staff have a great vibe which puts one at ease when leaving their pets. All were very eager to hear everything about your pets. Love this place. We will be back!!!!
Our dog is always safe here. At home he is pretty reactive and he gets anxious outside, but we never have a problem dropping him off. I recommend this facility for boarding! We have also had his nails done here while he was boarded and were happy with the results.
Such a caring, professional and trustworthy team. I would recommend Buds to anyone with petsitting needs. I find it to be a much better option than boarding or your typical pet sitting app. Thank you, Buds!
Buds always takes excellent care of my pups! They are reliable, trustworthy, and they even message us with updates through the portal and leave us note cards about their visit. We will never use another dog walker!
Buds have gone way above and beyond my expectations. I couldn't walk my two husky/akita mixes by myself as they always competed with whose in front of the other. I can now walk both dogs with a loose leash and they are always looking at me for commands. When we first requested the service they worked with both dogs separately in order to get the dogs comfortable with them and get to know their good/bad habits. They asked us what we wanted out of their service and presented a plan on how they would go about it. This was not what I expected. My dogs are beyond excited when they go for their walks and have developed a true relationship with Tori. If your dogs are your family, you'll understand how important this is to us. I'd give them a 10 star if I could!!!
I had an amazingly good experience with Pets Companion PA! Anisha took very good care of both my cats and communicated with me every day so I could see how great they were doing. It is comforting to know they are in very good hands and they will definitely have a repeat customer.
I was traveling for about a week and I had peace of mind the whole time knowing Anisha was there to take care of my cat. Excellent service and great communication at a fair rate!
Anisha was very accommodating since I called her later than I usually do to schedule care for my cats. She was very friendly and sent Rachel over to meet with me and the cats, although they didn't come out for introductions. 😀 When Rachel visited she even pictures to me. Both Anisha and Rachel were happy to discuss what I was looking for. I will definitely call Anisha again to sit my cats.
Anisha and her team have been great! Scheduling and communication is a breeze. Love getting a cute pup picture at lunchtime.
Our dog loves Aneesha! She is reliable and always shares photos of our dog playing catch and having fun! I highly recommend her!
Phoebe might be "just a cat" but she is also very needy when it comes to love and attention. Anisha and her team are great solution to my busy schedule! I was a little hesitant blindly calling a number to allow someone into my home when I'm gone. But after speaking and meeting with Anisha, I trusted my kitty would be in good hands. Daily photo updates, super responsive, and an affordable rate. We couldn't thank you enough!! 😻
Anisha and her team took amazing care of our Aussie, Scout, while we were away on vacation. Scout is a nervous dog with lots of energy, so we were nervous having people she wasn’t familiar with come take care of her, but Anisha accommodated us by coming to meet Scout and introduce one of her team members before we left so Scout could get to know them. They played frisbee with her multiple times a day and followed somewhat lengthy and maybe over-done instructions on my part :) we are so appreciative of how caring and thorough Pets Companion PA was when caring for our pup and we especially enjoyed the daily updates and photos.
We found Pets Companion online and used their cat sit service recently for a 11-day trip. Anisha (owner) helped set up the visits easily and quickly, and Rachel (sitter) provided excellent service during her visits to the house. We have 4 kitties, and it has been a challenge for previous sitters to keep the litter boxes clean. Rachel did a great job, and she also watered the plants and helped with some unexpected incidental tasks around the house. It was also very comforting to get photos with each visit, so we are ensured the cats are doing well. We really appreciate the help from both Anisha and Rachel and would hire them again!
They did a wonderful job with my anxious pup. They were very professional and I trust them to take the best care of my dog when I'm away. I will definitely be hiring them for my next trip!
So happy I found Pets Companian. If you are looking for a dog walker that is kind, consistent and compassionate about your animals, this is your dog walker.
My husky started at Waggy Tails in March when we moved to the area and so far I have nothing but the highest praise for this business. Having worked at a doggy daycare myself I know that some facilities do not take as much care as others. Right of the bat when I called to set up an evaluation and spoke to Sarah, she made me very confident in their care of the dogs. Huskies are not everyone’s favorite breed and my boy is a pain with fences so I made sure to talk that over with her. Not only did she reassure me that he would do okay but she said she would even be willing to measure their outside fence if we needed. My pup loves other dogs but seeing his tail wag when he said hi to Mike, the other owner, really made it. He can be aloof with other humans other than “his people” but clearly they have become his people. I’m so glad we found them.
We have had a great experience at Phoenix Waggy Tails! We have two large labs who have stayed for overnight and daycare and they practically run to the door when we drop them off. I love that we get updates via photos and a report card at the end of their stay. The facility is clean and organized and the owners Sarah and Mike are very personable and helpful. The portal technology is super helpful as well. The overnight staff member Kate has been great too. Glad we found Phoenix Waggy Tails!
We were finally getting to take our retirement trip to Maui for a full week. Having dealt with Sarah and Mike before, through their other company MuTTch Better Dog Walking Service (also a 5-Star operation), we were confident they could handle our two Babies. Teddy is 5 and a very fearful dog with big trust issues, River is a 15 year-old Mini-Dachshund with DDV (is incontinent and has been in diapers for 13 years). Not an easy pair to take care of. Once we toured the Waggy Tails facility, saw the cleanliness and attention to detail (real beds to sleep on) and the 24 hour coverage, we were MuTTCH more than just happy that our babies were safe, we knew they were with Dog People and they were being loved on. Thank you again Sarah and Mike and the whole team of Dog Walkers, Dog Lovers and just GREAT PEOPLE who take care of our little ones while we are away. Finally, when we would leave them in the past, it took them a week to get back into their routine, this time it was less than a day. 🐶 🐾 🦴
We recently started sending our 9 month old puppy here to get his energy out and socialize with other dogs and he absolutely loves it! He gets so excited on the days he gets to go to daycare and comes home completely exhausted. The staff at Waggy Tails is so friendly and accommodating. We love seeing his report card and all the pictures of him playing. I highly recommend sending your dog here!
Where do I even start?! Waggy tails is easily one of the best doggy daycare and boardings around. The owners and staff are so personable, attentive and caring and you can tell they take pride in what they do there. My husband and I have a senior pup and I was very nervous about leaving him for a week. But our ole man settled right in and even made a friend! I love that the second I met with them - to have my dog observed, I felt a sense of security and knew it would be a good fit. Thank you so much Waggy tails for making our ole man feel right at home so we could be worry free while on vacation! 10/10 HIGHLY recommend waggy tails!
My pup loves to go to Waggy Tails! She gets super excited when we drive into the parking lot. She gets to play and socialize with other dogs. Rosie has stayed overnight and we love that someone’s always there with them at night and they’re not put in crates, that they have beds that they can sleep in and feel like they’re really at home.
I cannot recommend Phoenix Waggy Tails enough! Mike and Sarah, the new owners, have truly transformed this daycare into a haven for our furry friends. Bella and Sam absolutely adore their time there, and I can see why! The care, attention, and love they receive are unparalleled. Mike and Sarah go above and beyond to ensure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. The facilities are top-notch, the staff is incredibly attentive, and the personalized care given to Bella and Sam makes me feel at ease every time I drop them off. Thank you, Phoenix Waggy Tails, for being the best home away from home for our beloved pets!
Used Phoenix Waggy Tails after leaving my old daycare/boarding location and could not be happier. Grooming is also available. Nightly texts with photos to let me know how my pup was doing. Will definitely continue using for boarding needs.
Our happy boy Fozzie Bear anxiously awaits the next time he gets to see the crew at Waggy Tails. He gets excited when I say “Let’s go see Ms. Audrey!” Audrey and team are genuine, hard working animal lovers. They go above and beyond to give your dog every care in the world. Plus some fun holiday photos too :) We send Fozzie to day care and have boarded him multiple times. We’ve only had stellar experiences. I’m so grateful we have Waggy Tails!! Thank you Audrey and team!
Audrey and her team are so awesome and professional. They were wonderful throughout the intake process for my almost-2-Year-Old pup. We love their booking and message system. Their packages make their rates a super deal! My pup has now also attended their training and boarding. Both were wonderful experiences, despite an anxious pup for whom it was his first time in boarding. They gave him 1:1 attention when he had trouble sleeping. We love Audrey (and Z) and the whole staff a Pheonix Waggy Tails! <3
Our dog loves coming here and the staff love having him or at least they seem like they do! It took a few times of daycare to get him interacting with other dogs, but now he plays nonstop. We have also used boarding and even taken advantage of some one on one time while he was there for an extended stay and he loved it. We also occasionally use their spa services and they do a great job of trimming his nails especially since he is super squirmy and overly dramatic about getting them trimmed. The cameras are also a nice touch so we can see how he is getting along with other dogs and we don't have to worry about him. We highly recommend that you take your dog at least every other week so your dog gets used to the environment and builds relationships.
Great day-care for my pup. They provide a safe, clean environment for him. He comes home happy. Melissa and the staff answer any questions or concerns I might have. Being able to watch him on the provided app provides confidence my dog is enjoying his day.
We have been using Dogtopia of Chester Springs since we got our Labrador Retriever four years ago. They have always taken exceptional care of him and it is obvious that he loves it there. You can tell that the Staff cares about the dogs and they are all very good at their job. They not only keep the play fun and safe for all the dogs, but they also become so familiar with each one that they notice things that are out of the ordinary like a limp, favoring a part of their body, etc. and make the owner aware (immediately if it seems serious). I fully trust my dog in their care, and I highly recommend Dogtopia of Chester Springs.
We love Dogtopia in Chester Springs! The staff is wonderful and love my dog like their own. We have been going there for 1-1/2 years now and it keeps getting better! Xena plays so hard and has so much fun that she Is sound asleep before we even leave the parking lot! Thank you for all you do!
I am in love with Dogtopia of Chester Springs! My dog looks forward to going every day and spending time with the other local pups! The boarding is amazing, the staff is incredible, daycare is absolutely amazing! If you are local, stop by and check them out! My Sammi loves loves loves this place!
We love Melissa and the team at Chester Springs Dogtopia. We joined early this summer and used boarding and daycare services often. I love how easy it is to arrange drop-offs and pick-ups. I love how welcoming and warm they are! We used to watch the webcams to check on him, but now we don't even think of it because we know he is happy. Alfie runs right in now! It is such a nice feeling to leave with ease and comfort knowing Alfie will be well cared for. Thank you, Melissa and team!
Dogtopia in Chester Springs is a wonderful place to take your dog for daycare. Our 3 year old goldendoodle dog is so happy going there playing with the other wonderful dogs. Melissa the manager and her staff are so friendly, kind, and go out of their way to make our dogs feel at home away from home. We are grateful we have found this special place! Highly recommend them
Very convenient location near PA turnpike at Eagle. We left JoJo when we went to Ocean City, NJ for four days. She was happy and well cared for. We’ll be back. 😎😇😎. …
We have been bringing our sweet Marcus to Dogtopia for years and we BOTH absolutely love it!! When I bring Marcus to the door he can hardly contain his excitement! It's no wonder with such an amazing team- Michelle, Jackie and Sara have always gone above and beyond for my fur baby and me. From making sure Marcus is taken back quickly in the morning so I can rush to work to staying after hours just so I am able to pick up. I can't thank the crew enough for all their loving, attentiveness and care- to both of us!! Thank you!!
I accidentally edited my original review. I can’t remember exactly what it said, but probably something along the lines of THIS PLACE ROCKS! I can’t recommend Dogtopia enough. We started sending our aussie there when she was a puppy and she’s loved it since the beginning. Being a herding dog she has some unique tendencies but the team there helped us work through them early on to ensure her success at daycare. She gets soooo happy whenever she hears the word “daycare”. We love the different room sizes and the facility itself is always so clean. The team does such a great job making daycare extra fun by planning special days for the puppers (bacon bubbles, holiday parties, pool days, dog of the week, etc.). Whenever we pick her up from daycare she immediately falls asleep in the car. She’ll sleep almost nonstop for the next day. Daycare days (and the day after) are a favorite around our house. Worth every penny!
Golden Leash made my wedding day with my pups a BREEZE! Alex and Stephanie were fantastic! They picked my dogs up on time, brought them to the venue to get acclimated and made sure they stayed cool in the AC until the ceremony started! They also dropped them off back at home and fed them their dinner afterward! My dogs were so happy to be involved and having a team I trusted to handle them during such a special time was incredibly important. They followed my written instructions and timeline to a T and even dressed in cocktail attire in case they were caught in photos!! I would highly recommend GLPC for anyone who wants their pups to be part of their special day. I didn't have a worry in the world with Alex and Stephanie there! 10/10!
I can't recommend Golden Leash Pet enough! When my original sitter had an unexpected emergency, I reached out to to them as a last minute solution and I’m so glad I did. Abby, Katrina and the rest of the team are incredibly accommodating, and I could tell my fur baby was in great hands. He was not only well taken care of but totally spoiled while I was away! I loved receiving the detailed report cards after each visit, which gave me peace of mind. They provided updates on everything—from bathroom breaks and meals to walks—and even included the walking path and adorable photos of my dog. It was such a thoughtful touch! If you’re looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker or sitter, I highly recommend Golden Leash Pet. I’ll definitely be using their services again in the future!
Golden Leash is beyond the best choice! For my pack of wild animals, they have been a gift. My two dogs are a handful but I never worry about the walkers handling them. Each one is professional and treats my pets like their own. We used their services for the weekend of our wedding and couldn’t have been happier.
We have used Golden Leash for both dog walks and overnight care with our dogs and they've been awesome! Our dogs are very high energy/reactive with other dogs and sometimes need special attention and the walkers were great with them. Both Christina and Alex stayed at our house on separate occasions and when we came home everything was super clean and they sent updates and pictures the whole time. I highly recommend using Golden Leash!!
Golden Leash Pet Care, LLC has been a staple of our community since we opened our doors 5 years ago! Abby and her team treat our pet-residents like family. Since day one, Abby and I have been collaborating together on how to celebrate our furry residents by creating pet-centric resident events.
We wanted to give a BIG thanks to Golden Leash and Emma for her help with our boy Miles. It was such peace of mind knowing that Miles was in great hands and we were able to get incredible photos with him!!! I cannot recommend Golden Leash enough for your wedding day needs!! Thank you!!
Golden Leash is hands down the best dog walking service we’ve ever used. Our dog Domino is a bit shy with new people and each time we’ve been introduced to a new walker (which has happened only a few times) they’ve made the effort to come out beforehand to do a meet and greet. We’ve also done overnights with Golden Leash and could not be more pleased. They took great care of our pets but also respected our home while they were there! They also put together thorough write ups and include pictures after every visit, putting our mind at ease! I couldn’t say enough good things about this comapny. A massive thank you to Mandy, Maggie, and Abby for loving our dogs like your own! The doggy smiles in the pictures says it all!
Golden Leash is an absolutely wonderful pet care service! I would highly recommend them to provide the best possible care for your furry friends. Emily B. is highly dependable and is absolutely great at handling all pet temperaments and personalities. If you are looking for quality pet care and employees who are caring and dedicated, look no further than Golden Leash!
We were in desperate need of some recurring help for our dog. Abby and Golden Leash made it so easy to get started and the service has far exceeded any expectations we could have had. The software they use is easy for managing appointments and their communication is prompt and helpful. We are thankful we found Golden Leash Pet Care.
I use Golden Leash 4/5 workdays a week to take care of my three pups. The staff are amazing and always read my notes about the pups. I have a reactive dog that requires patience and space and a dog who had major surgery this year. Everyone has been attentive to their needs and communicated when necessary to make sure they are taken care of and safe. I've also used them a number of times for in-home dog sitting while I am away and that has been amazing, too. Maggie is typically the staff member to stay with them and she is fantastic with them. They love her, she sends me updates and pictures, and she takes special care of my reactive pup who gets extra anxious when I am away. I can tell how much she cares about them. Golden Leash is wonderful and my pups LOVE having them come to visit them.
I can't say enough wonderful things about the people at Pet Sitters. My dog loves them. They are reasonably priced. Always are on time and really care about the pets they are working with. Highly recommend
LOVE LOVE LOVE them! We have been with Dave and his team of walkers for 18 months and have never been disappointed! We have 2 big Lab mixes, they are always walked and watered on time and I get a text when they are done to let me know about the visit! They treat all of us with love and respect!
The best! Lovers of all animals. Very reliable.
We love K-9 Design! Donna and the crew are accommodating & welcoming. We feel confident leaving our very loved dogs in their care.
We have been taking our dogs to K-9 Designs for over 12 years now ! We have moved three times, a little farther away each time, and we still make the trip to bring our babies here. Our dogs have been boarded, both long and short term, and groomed here and we always know the girls are in great hands! One of our previous dogs was a very senior boy and now with another getting up there in age, there are few places I would feel comfortable with leaving them for extended trips. They always take great care and we are so appreciative! Prices are reasonable and all the members are communicative and helpful. Highly recommend !!
Bailey came back happy, and in good shape. Usually after being away from the family, he is low energy and without an appetite. I absolutely loved the little report card they gave us when he was picked up. This is Bailey’s new home away from home. Thank you Shelbi!
We’ve had only great experiences boarding our dog with K-9 Designs Pet Paradise over the past year+. We can always trust that she will be happy and well-cared for, and the price is actually affordable. We have recommended them to family who now love them, too!
I love this place and so does Spencer! He’s always excited when he realizes where he’s going and never looks back. Thanks for taking such good care of my crazy man! 🫶🐾 …
The best care for our pup. Donna and her staff know and understand dogs. We have been going to K-9 designs for over 20 years and wouldn’t trust anyone else with our pets.
We love K9 Pet Paradise!! We have boarded our rescue dog with Donna and her team for 7 years and wouldn’t think of going to another place. They know our dog so well and offer all kinds of helpful advice for anything that may be ailing her. They are so accommodating, friendly and we always know that Bella is in good hands while we’re away. Thank you Donna, Shelby and Brian!!!
Donna and the staff are great. I never mind leaving the dogs cause I know they take such good care of them. It’s like leaving them with a family member. Thanks
Donna and crew have been taking great care of our Great Dane Olive as well as my entire families’ furry children for years when we have to travel. Thank you K9 Pet Paradise! Highly recommend👍 …
Love this place! First, I need a groomer. My coworker recommended this place to me. Reading the reviews, I was a little afraid then. But I trusted my coworker. I called and they were very friendly. Gave me prices. They are competitive. They groomed her exactly how I wanted her to be groomed. They called me as soon as she was done. She smells AMAZING! The groomer gave me feedback on how she did. I will definitely be a returning customer.
