Bob and Lesley have a sign inside their home that reads, "Friends are Family One Finds Along The Way." That is exactly how I felt when meeting them and inviting me into their home. Bob and Lesley are excellent hosts who are very friendly, generous, kind, and rolled out the welcome mat upon my arrival. I felt right at home as they provided me with some of my favorite things: fruit, bottled water, coffee, cream, sweetener, snacks, and even floor fans. Communication was great from start to finish. Whenever I had a question, they responded immediately. In advance, Lesley shared their detailed and thorough Welcome Guide along with written supplementary information that was provided during the handover. The hosts showed me Walter's routine and took me on a wonderful tour of their beautiful and spacious home that included an outdoor shower. I had a comfortable bed, extra drawer and closet space which I greatly appreciated. Bob showed me how to use a pellet stove; however, I did not need it because there was plenty of sunshine during my stay in Clinton. Clinton is a charming town. The neighborhood is family friendly and has walkable sidewalks. Hammonasset Beach State Park, Connecticut's largest shoreline beach, is just a short drive away. In walking distance to their home is a marina with lovely picturesque and tranquil views, restaurants, and an ice cream shop with delicious ice cream. I spent many days walking down to the marina with Walter enjoying the scenery. I met Walter outside and he is such a sweet, intelligent, and fun boy! He is very energetic and loves his walks. However, on walks, we had to take it easy as he was recovering from an injury to his right leg. One would never know by the way he rushed down the stairs when I would ask him 'if he was ready to go?' on our early morning walks. We had multiple walks daily and we explored different streets / routes throughout the neighborhood. Walter does pull on leash some, but he had moments also of good leash manners. Walter loves his dawdling of sniffing every blade of grass or anything he could, but he would also have moments of bursts of energy, particularly if he saw anything (like rabbits) that moved. Speaking of grass, he likes to get in a few nibbles along the way. Walter would let me know which way we wanted to go on walks, but was also good at letting me lead him by saying, "this way" or "come". Sometimes I would hum or sing on these walks and reward him with treats for good behavior—mostly for putting up with my singing. (LOL) Walter can be vocal and has some leash reactivity to other dogs-- so someone who knows how to execute commands and redirect / distract his attention is helpful. It helped when I brought his most favorite thing in the world on walks—his blue ball. If other dogs crossed our paths, I would show him the ball or make it squeak. He had great moments of not reacting. If he was about to react or bark, I would have him sit, tell him "no" until he calmed and tell him "good boy". Walter loves to please and loves praise in return; therefore, good communication works well with him. Walter has two blue balls and we enjoyed plenty of playtime of me tossing / him chasing them in the large fenced backyard. Walter is ball obsessive and a little comedian. When I would toss one ball, he would go get it, reliably bring it back and drop it—then go and get the second ball. But when I would throw the ball a second time, he would go get it quickly, come back to the first ball (on the ground) and sit by both balls. (LOL) We also enjoyed playing with his blue ball inside. I would hide his ball upstairs, ask him, "Where's your ball?" or "Find it" and he would find his ball each time—smart boy! Walter also loves spending time outside sunbathing and many days I would sit with him outside enjoying the sights and sounds of nature. Walter was very good about receiving his medicine (for allergies) inside peanut butter and peanut butter pill pockets. He was none the wiser. Walter loves his meals. He gives a perfect sit before putting his bowl down and waited for me to say 'okay' before he ate. Walter listens very well and did really well on his reinforcement training of come, sit, shake, and down. Walter is very affectionate as he loved to lay his head in my lap or lather me with kisses on my face or nudge my hand to pet him and then lick my hand. The time that I spent with Walter was precious and unforgettable. Oh, Walter, I won't forget his pretty brown eyes. I won't forget the tears I cried when it was bedtime and he waited until I came up the stairs to go to bed. I won't forget my singing to him "You are my sunshine", my having random conversations with him and some how sensing that he understood....maybe he did. I won't forget the love, joy, and happiness he brought to my days. I won't forget him sitting next to me (sometimes giving me kisses) while I was doing stretches / meditation on Lesley's yoga mat. I won't forget him keeping me company in the living room while I watched tv, sometimes resting his head on my feet. I won't forget him just wanting to be near me—never a bother, just wanting to be close and share in the experiences. I won't forget that Walter enjoys having his belly rubbed and my brushing him. Oh, Walter, I won't forget on the last day of my sit the sadness I felt because I knew my time was winding down with him. I won't forget when I walked out the door, I saw some sadness in his eyes that mirrored the same sadness that I felt. I missed him as soon as I left. When I awoke this morning, I found myself looking for him. In such a short time, Walter melted my heart. Simply put, I won't forget Walter and our cherished moments together. I had a wonderful stay and spending time with Walter was an unexpected gift! Thank you for entrusting your home and baby boy Walter into my care. I am truly grateful that I had an opportunity to spend time / care for Walter. I love him and told him so every day. Bob and Lesley are terrific people. They are appreciative pet parents, welcoming hosts with an awesome dog that I know many will enjoy pet sitting for. If you are contemplating sitting for Bob and Lesley, do not hesitate and I highly recommend.
Sophie and her boys were so welcoming and lovely to sit for. Percy & Gizmo are even more adorable in person than in the photos. Sophie left really clear and thorough instructions which made things easy and stress free. The cats were amazing, had no issues with them whatsoever. They love affection and are playful at times but spent a lot of time resting also so it was a very chill experience. Sophie’s house is beautiful and super homely. The location is brilliant and they have everything you need for a comfortable stay. Thank you to Sophie and the boys for a lovely experience.
I can't thank Jacobi enough for his kindness, he was so considerate and helpful. I was given a cute welcome basket and a very detailed welcome package. Saint is an absolute pleasure, she's a very sweet and affectionate dog. She is playful but still obedient. I had such a sweet connection with Saint it was sad to say goodbye. She is good company. The home is well kept and Jacobi has an excellent iRobot lol.
Sake is a lovely angel who is incredibly affectionate! I absolutely adore having her sit on my lap and brushing her fur. She has provided me with so much companionship and love! Thank you so much, Feblezi~ She is very kind and hospitable – communication with her has been a breeze. I'm looking forward to sit for Sake in the future!
I loved everything about these few days! Rosie is by far the funniest dog I’ve ever met with her fox like sporadic movements and curious nature, I miss her already. We were so lucky to have extremely warm and sunny days and I’m glad I’ve got to discover the big park nearby and bull island! It’s a wonderful walk. Annie and John were excellent with communication, very thoughtful and the lemon cake Annie has made was absolutely delicious! They have a wonderful garden and grow some flowers, vegetables and herbs themselves! It’s always a happy sight. Location is great, it’s both city and nature all around. Great for walking. I’d be happy to sit again!
Amy was very communicative and welcoming. She invited me to stay with her and her pup for a few days before her departure to get to know Vasco, her apartment and the neighborhood. Vasco is a very sweet, happy and smart dog. He is very well trained and loves every dog and person he meets. It's been a joy to spend an entire month with him, he's become a great friend and companion. Amy's apartment is spacious and has everything you could need for a beautiful stay It is situated in a beautiful beachtown location. Train, supermarkets, the beach and cafes are all within walking distance. Thank you so much for your trust. I would be happy to be back any time.

I really love this place!! Although I drove by it for many years because my pup had already had a doggie day care since birth🐶...I decided to stop by one day to see what they had to offer and the people were so friendly, very helpful and very informative. I quickly found out that this was the norm for them. ☺️ - They are also a one stop shop. (Daycare, Boarding, Bathing, Training and the list goes on. If you are looking for a place to take your pup, look no further. I truly belive both my pup and I have Best Friends Fur Ever!! God Bless! 🙏❤️🥹💯
Olivia is a wonderful trainer. She really took the time to listen to our needs first our puppy and everyone is so impressed with how she is doing! She communicates well and it was so fun to get video updates. All the handlers at BFFE make us feel special welcome every day.
My dog had such a great time at doggy daycare! My dog is a total social butterfly and hates being left home alone. Playing with other dogs is his absolute favorite thing. Knowing that he was getting to play with other dogs and getting pets from humans instead of home alone crying and howling makes me feel a lot better about leaving him there and getting things accomplished for the day. I love that I can watch him on the cameras and get a report card with pictures of him having a great day! I also love that there are options for early drop off and late pick up. I’ll be using them again for doggy daycare and potentially boarding. Definitely well worth it!
We were in puppy training with our 4 mot month old puppy. She is an amazing animal behavioralist and could answer a lot of questions. We learned so much from her. We would love if Olivia offered another class or have a dog park for small dogs to interact. Thank you very much!
Love everything about this place! We have a Cavapoo who has a bit of anxiety and we hardly ever board him. He’s been there multiple times now, a couple with extended stays and EVERY SINGLE staff member we’ve met has been exceptionally caring. Thank you so much!! Plus the webcams are just icing on the cake when we just want to make sure he’s doing ok.
I can't say enough how much my pups enjoy coming here. I even get to check on them through a camera whether I am traveling or just need a nice Daycare day for them while I am work. My pups are truly happy and that is all that matters.
Best Friends Furever is simply the best. The staff are always friendly and helpful. The trainers do a great job. Our dogs have been going there for daycare twice a week for years. We also have boarded our dogs there when we go out of town. If you can think of a service for dogs they almost certainly provided that service and do a wonderful job. I cannot recommend them highly enough. If you are looking for a place for your dogs to socialize with other dogs, get groom, get trained, just need a day to yourself or need to board your dogs this is the place for your dog!
My dog needs the special assistance program that they offer, which means the dogs hang in the office area adjacent to the lobby. I found it chaotic and noisy which isn’t especially good for old dogs, etc. Staff was nice but during my tour a few days before, I wasn’t told that I would be charged for a special collar ($12) for Ruth to wear when she is there.
It was so much fun to receive photos and reports on Louie while we were away! We enjoyed watching him at play on the webcams! The staff is awesome!! He will definitely return for more good times :)
My puppy loves BFFE Cockeysville location. As a new Dog Mom I find comfort in being able to check on my puppy through the client portal live video. I even received a video report card on his first day at doggie day care!! He played in the water and went swimming!!
I use BeMore Pet Care any time I need to board my dog while I travel and I can’t recommend them enough. My dog is not a “people person” and can be fearful of strangers, so finding a trustworthy boarder to care for him was a real challenge until I was recommended to BeMore Pet Care by another dog trainer. I have total confidence that my dog is very well cared for when I leave him with Morgan, and he’s always happy and healthy after his time with her. They’ve always been able to accommodate my boarding requests even with relatively short notice, and the process is very simple and stress free. We are very lucky to have this knowledgeable, trustworthy small company in Baltimore for our pet care needs!
We recently used BeMore Pet care for boarding our two dogs while we were out of the country for 10 days and I’m so glad we did! I was nervous having them stay at someone’s home especially because one of our dogs has separation anxiety and some behavioral issues. We also have an older Pittie mix with health issues, but Sarah, our pet sitter, took excellent care of them. She provided daily updates and the dogs were happy and healthy when we picked them up. She gave them all of their medications and followed our instructions. She also took the time to give them plenty of snuggle time. I would definitely recommend using BeMore Pet Care for pet sitting!
We are very pleased to have found BeMore pet care. It’s hard to find reliable pet sitters. They have accommodated our schedules many times, and even gone out of their way and made the extra effort. These are experience pet sitters who were able to medicate some of our older cats.
Morgan and Sarah are always very welcoming, accommodating, and professional. The constant updates and pictures provided aids in keeping my mind at ease knowing my dog is in good hands when I'm away. Zeke is always excited when he is dropped off to either location. Keep up the great work!
Morgan and the BeMore crew are absolutely fantastic, we couldn't recommend them more!! We've had plenty of dog walkers over the years, but Morgan & her team always goes above & beyond. We had 2 very high maintenance pups (1 little deaf & skittish Cavalier, and a 15-year old rock star Lab) when we first moved to the neighborhood a few years ago. Morgan and her team were so patient & attentive w/ them from the start. They loved her and the rest of the team, and were so excited every time they came to get them for walks. Getting photos sent for every walk was such a treat in our work day! Now we have 2 young, feisty guys (Black Lab & Papillion), and they love Morgan & team just as much. Great peace of mind when overnights are needed to know that they are in such good hands. Not just for walks & overnights, but also for other expertise & services like training, health recommendations, etc. Very responsive, reliable, and professional! Love BeMore Pet Care!!!
I entrusted Morgan and her team with my high energy, yet lovable, pitbull mix for about a week. I was nervous, as this was the first time she slept away from home. Morgan provided daily updates, plenty of play time and snuggles with her at night. I felt at ease knowing she was properly cared for. Highly recommend Bemore Pet Care!
We hired BeMore Pet Care to watch our pets, and they did such an amazing job. We have a senior bunny rabbit who has some specific care considerations, and a cat who’s had issues with separation anxiety in the past. From the first email, Morgan was responsive and helpful when sharing available services and pricing, and I felt like she genuinely considered our needs when finding us the right sitter. Our sitter Jill was phenomenal. She sent prompt, clear updates each visit, outlining which tasks had been completed to care for each pet. She sent so many photos, and made sure both pets’ living environments were clean and comfortable the whole time we were gone. I really did feel that she took the same kind of care that we would have if we’d been home. I would 100% hire this team again. They were fantastic.
I met Morgan at a training center and was thrilled to hear when she went out on her own to start BeMore Pet Care. I have always been nervous about leaving my girl with anyone, as she is special needs (deaf) and also quite large/strong. It is hard for me to find people to care for my most prized possession... and I would leave her in Morgan's care in a heartbeat. Morgan is wonderful with dogs, attentive, a great communicator, and also a great business owner. She keeps me updated with a picture for each walk or overnight boarding. My dog always comes home exhausted so I know she is getting adequate attention, walks, and stimulation when Morgan cares for her overnight. Can't recommend BeMore enough for the other over-protective dog Moms out there!
I cannot recommend this company enough! They are reliable, reasonable and personable!! We have had Morgan and josh as our walkers and both are incredible. Each visit they send me picture updates and let me know how my puppy did. I am so thankful we found this company. You will not be disappointed!
We used BeMore Pet Care (Grant) for overnight care for our dog and 2 cats (one has medical needs). Could not have been more happy with the updates, communication, and care our animals received while we were gone.
We worked with Tucker from Grateful Dog Walkers for our wedding day. Tucker was absolutely amazing! He was very professional, friendly, and took great care of our girl. We had so many compliments throughout the wedding day. Our dog, Bailey is our whole world and he took the best care of her. Tucker had many phone calls and email/text conversations leading up to the wedding to make sure he had all the details. He even took a few of his own pictures during the wedding which we loved to see! He transported Bailey to and from the wedding and even took her on a hike prior. We never had to worry once knowing she was in such great care and got to be included in our special day. I highly recommend Grateful Dog Walkers to anyone looking for care, especially for a wedding!
Services have been flawless since we began several years ago. GDW has been a godsend especially when we work extra long days!
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Grateful Dog Walkers. Tucker and Kel go above and beyond for our pooches and treat them like family. They are true dog lovers through and through. We cannot recommend Grateful Dog Walkers enough!!
I'm so happy I found grateful dog walkers! It's vacation for the pups. They LOVE going for daycare or boarding. The staff knows them and treats them like family. I get photos with their friends every visit.
We recently used Grateful Dog Walkers for our wedding and could not have been happier with the service we received. Tucker and his team went above and beyond to make sure Finn was taken care of and comfortable throughout the entire event. They handled him perfectly before, during, and after the ceremony. Having Finn with us for the ceremony and photos made our wedding, and they were so professional being right where we needed them when we needed them. Most of all - we had peace of mind that day that Finn was in the best hands! In addition to their amazing work at our wedding, Finn also boards with Grateful Dog Walkers and gets weekly walks from their staff. We have always been impressed with their attention to detail and level of care for Finn every time. The staff has always exceeded our expectations and goes the extra mile to make sure he is happy and healthy. We highly recommend Grateful Dog Walkers for anyone looking for top-notch dog walking and pet care service. Tucker and his team truly love and care for all of the animals they work with, and it shows in their work. Thank you, Grateful Dog Walkers, for taking such great care of our Finn!
So grateful to Tucker and Kelly. Our high energy vizsla pup had an amazing week boarding with them. It was a doggie vacation! She played to her heart’s content with all her new friends and we loved getting the regular updates and seeing that she was so happy. This is truly a special place for doggies.
We had such a great experience with the Grateful Dog Walkers! Our wedding was in Bayside and we had several guests with dogs staying in rentals. The Walkers were so great working with us to create a schedule to fit in feeding and walks for all of the dogs. They also dressed our “best dog” in his wedding outfit and drove him to our ceremony location for us for photos!! The dogs were all very well taken care of. We highly recommend!!!!!
Grateful dog walkers is a phenomenal dog service. My wife and I had to be out of town for the weekend last minute with no one to watch our dog. I booked with grateful dog walkers and immediately got confirmation of booking with Mackey. We felt so good leaving our dog with him because once we pulled into Mackeys driveway Louie (our golden retriever) ran straight up to the front door wanting to come inside. When we were away we got updates and pictures of Louie when we were gone. Mackey takes the dogs on hikes throughout the day which Louie loves. It felt good to know my boy was in good hands. I would highly recommend grateful dog walkers and I will be using their services first for now on!
The whole GDW Team has taken great care of my dogs over the past 4 years! From walks, daycare, adventure hikes, and overnight boarding, they have always gone above and beyond to make sure my dogs are happy, safe, and having the most fun! I highly recommend them for any of the many services they provide! They are the absolute best!
Wonderful experience. I had a wedding on the Eastern Shore close to Ocean City, and Macky at Grateful Dog Walkers made sure my buddy Hank was well taken care of. Can’t beat the pricing either. Thanks Macky!
Our 10 plus yr old Jack Russell has experienced time in a kennel for the first time in his life. I/we were extremely nervous, as I had no idea how this guy would do in the environment. HB&B sent us photos to show how our old man was doing, he appeared quite happy. He had personal time in the play yard, as he is an intact male. He has been in this kennel 3 times this Summer. Very caring staff!!
HB&B is the best! The love and care they provide for our dogs is unmatched. The staff is extrmely kind and compassionate. Our confindence in their care puts us at ease when we take our dogs to visit HB&B. We HIGHLY recommend!!
My wife and I have been clients for 4 years with our 3 dogs. We absolutely love leaving our pups here anytime. The dogs love going as well. They return to us clean and happy. Highly recommend Hereford Bed & Biscuit for all dog needs. The staff and owner Tom are lovely and take such wonderful care of our 3 dogs every time.
Boarded my little buddy here for five days.he seems to have had a great time. I found the cost to be reasonable, offering options for group play and walks so he wasn’t isolated for the week and he wasn’t crated; rather he had his own “room” at night. I’d use them again.
First time customer but will definitely be back. HB&B did a wonderful job boarding our cat while away on an extended vacation. Our cat is definitely not the easiest to care for and is known to be quite a handful but upon returning home she has been the least stressed by far compared to any previous extended absence. Scheduling, drop-off, pick-up was stress free and the staff was very friendly and answered all our questions. Will not hesitate to use HB&B again and/or recommend to friends. Thanks!
We have been taking our crew to HBB for years, and wouldn’t consider taking them anywhere else. The owner is very involved every day and he and the excellent, caring staff go out of their way to go the extra mile for the animals entrusted to them. The facility is clean and pleasant and our dogs love their time at HBB. As an extra bonus, there’s no more talented groomer in town! Highly recommend.
My dog Winston absolutely loves HB&B. When he sees me getting his food ready, he literally leaps through the air until we get to the car. Everyone there greets him with excitement. From his excitement to the warm welcome, this speaks volumes to a pet owner, knowing your beloved pets will be well taken care of in your absence.
Unfortunately we did not have a good experience here. We dropped our months-old puppy off for a doggy daycare trial and relayed the message about us being nervous dropping our little guy off. They assured us that everything would be great and that they would call us and send pictures. Several hours go by without a peep, so I called a few times and got no answer. I began to worry so I called the other phone number on their website which is for emergencies. A man (I assume the owner?) picked up and I explained the situation and he said “oh yeah, our phones aren’t working”??? Long story short, we eventually (after about 6 hours of silence) received one photo and a message that our dog was nervous but warming up (which is absolutely the opposite of his personality). So I left work to go pick him up and asked for a tour. They showed me where they had him which was in a metal enclosure with a concrete slab floor? The place was dirty and the other customers I was with agreed, in surprise, as they had never been given a tour until then either. The icing on the cake was when I found feces between my puppy’s paws and then the owner rolled up in a new Mercedes g wagon 🥲
HB&B is the best! Our Bailey runs to the back without a backward glance when we drop her off. She's bathed and happy when we pick her up and usually tired out from playing with her "friends". We've been bringing our dogs to HB&B for years. And my parents brought our dogs before that! We've referred many friends over the years too :) Can't recommend it highly enough!
Could not ask for a better place to take care of our 2 dogs. We have been taking them here for over 4 years and the staff is absolutely amazing. The faciltiy is extremely clean and they are always very accomodating. They offer a wide variety of extras from grooming to walks to upgraded suites. I have referred so many of our friends to them who have been just as satisfied. Thank you HBB!
We have been going to Dogtopia since the beginning of this year. Communication with the staff is awesome. Staff is awesome. Our girl loves it. She is excited and ready to go. Boarding has been a plus.
The staff is friendly and really care about the dogs as if they were their own. I love the events they have for the dogs at the center and the camera access owner's are granted upon signing up. I love this place and my dog does too.
We LOVE Dogtopia of Towson! They are always excited to greet our Shibas. The center is clean, they remember even the slightest of requests. Their webcams are clear so you can see the coaches professionally interact with your dogs, but most importantly, my dogs are so much happier in every aspect of their life. They get along with one another better once home, and they actually sleep through the night now! What a Godsend! My dogs slept in today for the first time ever! Sadly I let them sleep in instead of going to daycare, and now it is early afternoon and they are giving me the side eye because they aren't at Dogtopia. LOL. I won't be making that mistake again. Come check them out. You won't be sorry!! It's a great place!
My Macee Pooh is such a sweet girl who is very timid with Men. Every person I met at the Towson location was so pleasant and professional and gentle with our MaceePooh!!! She come homes tired every time, even if she's just in the "Gym" getting her steps in with the pac. The staff here were great with keeping me calm about leaving our baby for the day.
Fantastic. I was nervous about taking my dog for day care. He is BIG ENERGY, and a fairly large dog. But this team are pros. He had a great day, and they do a great job. I’m a big fan.
The staff is the absolute best. They are so welcoming and kind and really love the pups that come. The facilities are always so clean as well. My dog Ruby loves coming to see her friends. She goes once a week for play and I have boarded her as well. I fully trust them with my pup and highly recommend!
They are prompt and professional. Marely has been attending doggy daycare for three days now and they are awesome with him. I would highly recommend. The meet and greet was nerve wracking for me, but the staff were knowledgable, kind, and compassionate. They ensured me that Marely would be in good hands and I felt validated by them with the care I was able to see during the meet and greet. It’s so calming to know my fur baby boy is in good care when I can’t be with him. He will also be boarding with them while I’m away on vacation.
My puppy Roscoe loves Dogtopia! He has grown so much since he started attending 1-2 days a week. He was extremely anxious when he started attending and the staff showed so much patience and care with him. Now he runs straight to the door and happily trots to the playroom with the Canine Coaches. The staff has been friendly and communicative since day one- special shout out to Hailey for always calming my pet parent anxiety! Our recent boarding experience was especially great. My husband and I were very anxious to leave our pup for a week and board him for the first time. Everyone was kind and understanding and listened to our litany of instructions. During our trip we recieved email updates and phone calls. He had trouble eating one day, and I recieved a call asking to add broth to his food. His final day, he was bit by another dog. When Hailey called it was clear this was not a normal occurrence and she was anxious herself, but showed professionalism and compassion. He was taken directly to the ER and I recieved a detailed care plan from both Dogtopia and the vet. (The other dog was dismissed from care.) He was fine and when I went to pick up his boarding items, he ran straight to the front door and greeted all the canine coaches with kisses and playfulness while we waited for his items. Because of how well this situation was handled, I still 100% trust the staff at Dogtopia and will return when his injury has healed. The love for the dogs in their care is apparent.
Love Dogtopia! Staff is friendly and they take good care of my pup. Mazie seems very happy there.
Milo have an amazing time at his meet and greet. He is high energy and was exhausted after his first day at Dogtopia. He made lots of friends and can’t wait to return. The staff was warm and welcoming. Couldn’t have asked for more.
Very happy with my experience so far. Liam has been great and communicates well. The pictures during the day of our pups activities are awesome. Priscilla (another dog walker) also took our pup out for a hike and her pics were great too. She was on time for drop off and very friendly. Thoroughly impressed with this company so far.
Amazing dog sitting service. I can’t say enough about Liam Scanlan. He was just awesome with all of our dogs and cat. Very professional and a real animal lover. You can always tell. My pets are not so easy but he took it in stride. I had such peace of mind leaving them for the weekend (we don’t go out very much because of them) but now we are set for life. We are very happy and grateful to Liam. Not to mention the great pictures he takes of our babies❤️
Love, love, love this team! Liam & Mackey are amazing. Our Dog Bruno has a great time at daycare & is so tired when he gets home. Bruno loves playing with the other dogs. Highly recommend!
Usually when I come home from vacation my dog is full of energy and bouncing off the walls after being stuck inside all day, but my past trip was surprisingly different. Mackey and Liam did such an awesome job taking Chloe for super long walks and throwing her ball for her in our backyard. They provided constant pictures twice a day to show just how much fun my dog was having in their care. They provided hilarious, detailed reviews of each walk/ meal after each visit. You can tell these guys love what they do and really care about the pets they work with. Going away next month and will definitely be using them again. Easy to schedule/ pay and an awesome staff.
I was a big fan of Grateful Dog Walkers… But the best thing about them is no longer there… Mackey Scanlan. Not only was Mackey, a consummate professional, he truly loved and cared for my pets, as though they were his own… And, he treated my home as though it were his own. Unfortunately that wasn’t something that wasn’t upheld by the rest of GrateDog Walkers in this area. I had serious issues with Liam SEVERAL times. I specifically told him that any new person needed to be introduced to myself and my husband, as well as our pets prior to coming into our home. This is something that we do with ALL contractors. It is an industry standard. It did not seem to be an issue when I discussed it with Liam… however, it was completely lost on him when on more than one occasion, he had somebody completely different, show up at our house at the wrong time whom we had never met! I called Liam, and I was assured that Mackey would be the person who would then come back. I actually had to contact Mackey directly to ensure that he would be there the first time this occurred. The second time this occurred, a new person showed up that I had never met, locked a cat who was on Prozac in our bedroom, who, then ripped up a bedroom carpet… Liam claimed that this was impossible, they would have never shut the door, but we were out… This is not some thing that Mackey, who was very familiar with our pets, very familiar with our home, and very familiar with our routine would have ever done. Trying to discuss the matter with Liam, he took absolutely no accountability, and actually put the blame back on me. I have had numerous issues with billing, I’ve had to reach out on more than one occasion because of it. It’s just all very haphazard and unprofessional. It’s really sad, because the place where I get my dogs groomed recommended Grateful Dog Walkers specifically because of Mackey, and I got them several new customers because of Mackey… We have all left now. What’s worse is, I had actually purchased a gift card for Mackey, and when he could not come to my home, Liam had stated he would come to my home and handle my pet for me. I agreed to that. Liam actually stated that he had picked up the gift card and was going to deliver it to his employee Mackey. I checked with him on three occasions after the last pet visit, he had no clue there was a gift card, no clue of the amount or where it was purchased to. Clearly, Liam kept the gift card for himself. I have no use for such unprofessional persons, the entitlement is beyond reproach. I have a second home, and a very large upscale community, I had very strongly recommended this group, and I am now very strongly recommending to all of my friends and neighbors not to use them until they replace Management here. Smarten up folks! You let an honest, hard worker who brought in clients go to keep someone who sleeps in, doesn’t return clients calls, and when they do, berates them and is insanely unprofessional. This is the absolute best example of the Peter principal that ever was! GO ELSEWHERE!! PS notice that it’s Mackey‘s name that is complimented on other reviews… Take the hint people! either clean up your act down here, or simply keep your flagship operation in the Baltimore area
We’ve been using Grateful Dog Walkers for a month now for our 10-month-old puppy. We have been very happy with the service as they show genuine interest and care for our dog. Most importantly our pup is happy and tired at the end of the day from all the activities. Photos of the dogs playing and having a good time are an assurance they are in good hands.
Have used Grateful Dog Walkers for over a year and our dogs love them!!! The scheduling is easy and if there is a question or problem, they are in touch right away. Love seeing the pictures of their walks and hearing how they were. Very reassuring to know they are in the BEST care when we have to leave them. Thank you Grateful Dog Walkers!🐶🐶💕💕
I have 2 dogs and both love Grateful Dog Walkers. It is super easy to schedule services and they are quick on any requests or questions. They are punctual and respectful of my home. The dogs get a great walk and I get pictures of their fun. We highly recommend Grateful Dog Walkers!
We have had 2 good experiences with Grateful Dog Walkers. Our dog Milo has been happy and tired when he returned. Mackey was always on time and Milo was always happy to see him!
My dog is terrified of people and I have had a hard time finding daycare or boarding. My dog Fennigan loves going with Mackey and Liam with Grateful Dog Walkers. I am so relieved to have someone care for my Fennigan and know that I don't need to worry. I have even seen a difference with his nervous behavior. Thank you Grateful Dog Walkers!
Amanda at Mohr Paws to Please Pet Care is part of our family. My dog Moose absolutely loves her and everyone on her team. I trust Amanda and her team explicitly and know that when my husband and I are out of town or away from home, that my fur baby is well taken care of. Amanda is flexible, caring, trustworthy, and responds to you in a timely manner. It is easy to book her services and her prices are fair. There have been many times where I have added or removed services last-minute and Amanda always does her best to accommodate when our plans sometimes change. Mohr Paws sends routine updates, pictures, and any concerns while watching your pet which helps put my mind at ease when I am away for long periods. I truly don’t know what we would do without Amanda and her team! I highly recommend Mohr Paws to Please Pet Care for all of your pet needs!
Mohr Paws to Please Pet Care is our #1 and only pet care service that we use and recommend. Our cat's diet and medical treatment can be very complicated because she has diabetes and has chronic respiratory issues. We need someone who is on the ball to ensure she has everything she needs and to monitor for any behavioral or health changes while we're away. Amanda is absolutely wonderful and so thorough. She's not only caring for your pets, but watches out for your home as well by bringing in packages, taking out kitty litter trash, cleaning dishes (yup!), etc. I never expected someone to go above and beyond like this. Dare I say it, she's even better than if family members were to do it for you! lol. Thank you so much Amanda! We're excited for you to see Stella again and to meet the newest addition to our family on our next trip!
My pups have been cared for by this small business for years! From quick pop ins, hour long stays and overnights, this business has you covered. With their multiple certification I have always trusted them with feedings and giving meds. The best is the multiple pictures you receive through the visits. 10 for 10
I recently started using Mohr Paws to Please for my Bella! I work long days and love that I can worry free about Bella getting enough exercise/stimulation/love while I'm working. Nicole, her dog walker/new bff, will send me pictures of my sweet girl on their walk and of her sweet face and will also give me a "report card" of their walk! Bella has dog aggression/reactivity and will sometimes pull on the leash, but Nicole has been great at working with her along with me. Nicole has been able to help me out in a pinch on a day I had to work long and couldn't be back for her until 12 hours, so I'm super grateful for her. I also love that my Bella loves her!
Mohr Paws to Please is the absolute best pet care and we are so happy to have them for so many years. Emma is so amazing with our pups and they absolutely adore her. Amanda is an excellent business owner and is always responsive and quick to meet any need. We love MPTP and can’t imagine using anyone else for our babies!
Highly recommend! I have been using Amanda for a few years now, she takes my Pittie Kali out during the day or evening for potty breaks, she is awesome! I love that I get updates and pictures with each visit . It always looks like Kali is having an awesome time . It’s so important to feel like your pet is left in safe hands when your not around and with Amanda she’s done such a great job at putting my mind at ease with that . 5 stars for sure !
Very pleased with their services! Amanda took such great care of our cat and was easy to communicate with! Highly recommend!
We've used their services twice now for our two cats during week long vacations. They are thorough and take great care of our pets. I highly recommend.
We've used Patrick for at least 10 years. He's been so reliable and with him looking after our animals, I know I don't need to worry. I'd recommend him any and every day.
Patrick is wonderful. He has taken excellent care of our dogs and home over the years. We highly recommend him.
It was 5+ years ago we took our rotti for overnight stay Tammy was wonderful with Louie. She text pictures of him enjoying himself.
My parents use Paws on Parade and love it. Fantastic service!
Ursula is a fantastic pet sitter! Whenever I have to leave town she's always happy to watch my cat and take care of her. My cat absolutely loves her and I fully trust her to take good care of her. She texts pictures daily when she stops by and always communicates clearly about medications or anything else that needs to be taken care of. Over all I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter to take care of my cat while I'm away. I highly recommend Ursula!
There are not many people I would trust to stay in my home and take care of my dog while I'm away - but Ursula is certainly one of them! My dog absolutely loves Ursula, and it's a relief to know she is in capable hands, even with her medical issues. I highly recommend Ursula for personalized, reliable pet care.
Ursula has been such a lifesaver for us! She comes many days during the week to let our dog out and to play fetch. He’s always happy to see her and she does an amazing job both watching over the dogs as well as clear communication. We’re picky with who gets to take care of our dog and I wouldn’t have it be anyone else. Thanks, Ursula! Highly recommend for anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet! Roady is always smiling when you’re there!
Ursula is amazing! Our 6 month old large breed puppy loves her and she always keeps us informed after each visit with pictures and updates. Our neighbor even commented on how much she clearly loves our pup. We are lucky to have found someone so attentive and helpful.
Ursula is great! She is very kind to our cat and always sends updates and photos so we don’t worry when traveling. We were delayed on our last trip and she saved us by continuing to care for the cat until we managed to get back. Also, the cat seems to love her and is always in a good mood when we return. Highly recommend this compassionate and reliable sitter.
I highly recommend Dtails Pet Service. Ursula is fantastic with my dog, and Lucy absolutely loves her. I feel 100% confident having Ursula stay at our house while we are away, and she’s great at sending photos and updates. This means I don’t have to worry at all and can enjoy our time away!
Ursula was great! This was our 1st time using her and a dog sitting service in general while we were away for a few days. I just wasn’t comfortable using a dog kennel for my pup. Ursula was was great from the get-go….from the initial meet all the way up to when we got back. She took great care of our puppy and you can clearly tell she loves dogs. I will use her again in a heartbeat. Great communication while we were away & affordable as well. You really can’t go wrong.
We are very happy with Dtails Pet Service. Ursula takes great care of our kitties. She keeps us updated with texts and pictures, which puts us at ease that our cats are doing well while we're away. I would highly recommend this service!
I cannot say enough positive things about Ursula. We have used other dog walking companies, but she is the best. She is warm and genuinely excited to see our dog every day. We can also tell that he really likes her too! She walks him for the full time we requested and ensures he has treats and fresh water before she leaves. Her prices are also more reasonable than others which was a plus! We get a quick text update when she is done for the day and she uses venmo for super easy billing. She is dependable and flexible with our schedules. We love her and would recommend her to anyone in the area.
I've been using D'Tails Pet Service for dog walking/potty breaks for about a year, and am very happy I found them! When I first rescued my dog, she was very skittish and intimidated most people, but not Ursula! My dog warmed up to Ursula quickly and is always happy to see her. Ursula is extremely reliable and very flexible; she's patient with schedule changes, has added visits with little notice, and is fair with her pricing. Best of all, she seems to genuinely like my dog and the feeling is clearly mutual!
