We continue to be blessed with great doggy sitters from zeewoi. Aries and Lila were well cared for, clearly attended to, and the house looked great when we came home. Thank you, Tessa!
Marcelina was very sweet to come meet me in advance of our departure. She asked lots of good questions and was an easy guest. She clearly really liked cats. She kept us informed about everything going on at home and took action to prevent a flea outbreak when she noticed a few. We really appreciated the way she took care of our cats and home.
Naomi was amazing before we spoke via video call, and before we text. She stayed in contact throughout the stay knowing by previous sit was a little problematic she reassured my husband and I with photos and updates. I could see the dogs were happy from the photos. My home was spotless on return the best sitter I have had so far. Thank you from us all.
Lev was clear and great with her instructions on how we can make sure Latke was well taken care of. Great communication. Latke was fun and easy to be with and we had a great few days.

I got Zion right before COVID. I don’t know what his previous owners did to him but he was very nervous and reactive. I took him to Petco for training but the trainer, let’s just say wasn’t very effective.The neighbors at the apartment at which I was living at the time complained every time Zion walked from one part of my apartment to another. School was still in a brick and mortar so I needed to find someone to take care of him during the day. I stumbled upon Demille and Jill and let them know my situation, how Zion was, etc. They met him and agreed to board him during the week. They would send me pictures and Zion looked super happy. Without knowing it, they helped Zion immensely. My boyfriend and I stumbled upon the unofficial dog park at Wyman Park. At first we were skeptical about letting him go but then we remembered the pictures Jill and Demille would send of him playing with other dogs, being happy and we let him go and he was just fine. He was calm. His reactivity had significantly diminished. When I travel, it’s Jill and Demille I call because they know Zion and his quirks and love him regardless. Thanks, Guys for being so good with and to Zion. With your help, he really has come a long way.
Jill runs such a loving and care dog care service! We had tried (and failed) with a few other services before finding Hampden Hounds. But Jill made us feel so comfortable and she takes such great care of our dog! We always get multiple pictures a day when she’s walking or watching him and she is always very responsive. Would definitely recommend Hampden Hounds to anyone looking for dog care services!
Our dog goes to hampden hounds so often that when we start heading that direction it’s hard to keep her on her leash! Jill sends pictures every day and our pup is exhausted by time we get back. Also super flexible when plans change last minute and easy to contact via email or text, she is very responsive. I highly recommend, especially if your in the Hampden area!
Our dog has always been treated so well in every possible way by Jill. We love the updates, pictures during walks, and the care she puts into the dogs and her business. When we moved out of the city, we solely used Hampden Hounds for boarding. There is nobody else we’d rather use to care for our dog!
There aren’t words to express how grateful we are to Hampden Hounds. From walking my energetic dog multiple times a day while I worked long hours, to caring for her for several days while I was in the hospital, to boarding her for holidays and vacations, I could always count on Jill to make sure my girl was well cared for. Hampden Hounds was the only boarding I trusted when my dog was 16 years old and needed a lot of special attention. Even after I left the city, I drove an hour to make sure our dog was in the best care whenever I couldn’t be with her. We love Hampden Hounds!
The most flexible, responsive, and trustworthy dog walkers we’ve worked with. We adjust our schedule each week and it’s not a problem at all. Our dog is very shy around new people, but Demille was extremely patient with her from the start, and now she loves when he shows up. Couldn’t recommend more.
Our very large Lab, Darwin, adores Demille, who provides love, care and excellent exercise in all sorts of weather. We are so pleased with the outstanding services Hampden Hounds provides and we recommend them to everyone. Darwin uses dog walking and day care services and loves his time with Demille and Jill. Jill is an excellent communicator to both humans and dogs alike. Hampden Hounds is a pandemic puppy’s dream come true. Love getting the photos from walks. The photo is Darwin after a walk with DeMille!
Demille is a dog whisperer. My great dane/walker tree hound loves him. He looks forward to the daily walks and is excited to see him each and every time. He comes back the happiest boy from each walk. And, he is not easy to deal with - is …
My dog Jasmine gets so excited every time she goes to see Jill and DeMille. She always meets new friends and I don’t worry about how she is doing or how she is being treated, like I have with others in the past. Jill always sends me update …
Jill from Hampden Hounds is kind and reliable, and our dogs LOVE her. She walks our pups every workday. When I am working from home I get to see just how happy our dogs are when Jill arrives at the front door for their walk! Prices are very reasonable, too.
Amazing service, good people , all around star citizen
I loved her dogs and wish I was chosen to sit them.
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 …
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 …
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. …
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 …
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. …
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 …
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!!
We could not be more grateful for Crate Escape. Astro is SO excited for his day care days, and he always comes out happy and exhausted! They’ve always taken such great care of him, especially when we’ve boarded him there for a few nights while we were out of town. Keith is so enthusiastic and excellent at what he does, and their prices are super reasonable. There have even been several times that we are out walking him in the neighborhood and run into a staff member who recognizes him instantly. Astro is always so excited to see them and say hi, and it’s honestly a great indicator of how great the entire business is that they know each dog by name so quickly, and the dogs know and love every one of them!
Potato practically drags me to the door he is so excited to get to daycare here! Staff is great- super friendly and accommodating. You can tell they all love where they work! Keith, the owner, is super friendly and is very communicative if there is ever a problem! We've been coming here almost 2 years! Could not recommend more! The crate less boarding is also very cool and such a treat for our baby to have a big sleepover with everyone! Potato always comes home happy!
This place rocks. My dog literally does flips whenever we say "doggie daycare.". I'm not kidding when I say that this is a well oiled machine. They intake hundreds of dogs every morning and make it seem effortless. The entire staff knows my dog on a personal basis, and a good deal of them know me as well. Good Lord, they're so friendly. I want to sit on a couch and watch movies and eat popcorn with these people (surrounded by small and medium sized pooches). My dog wants to do this, too. I hope they don't lose their charm when they move. Six stars for this place.
GDDC is great. Lots of space and they group dogs together based on personality so every good boy has an amazing experience. The staff are clearly dog lovers, and my pupper is really excited to see them and all his good doggie friends. I haven't tried boarding yet but plan to in the near future. Cost is reasonable.
My dog loves loves this place. He is so excited when he gets here and loves to play with the other dogs. The staff is always kind and welcoming. They don’t use kennels when boarding over night so my dog can board with them too. The dogs stay on doggy beds in the sleeping rooms and staff stay there too.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! GDDC is the BEST!!! The staff is great and they take great care of my Riley. She has such much fun running around with the other dogs there, she will go to sleep on the 8 minute ride home.
This place is a gem. My dog is a shy girl, and they were so kind and caring in helping her to acclimate. Within the first few visits, she was leaping out of the car in excitement to get inside and play! I like how they rotate the dogs through various play rooms and outdoor yards, it’s great for them to have that variety throughout the day. The staff are just wonderful and it’s evident they really care about the pups having a good experience away from home! It feels great bringing her there and knowing she’s in excellent hands.
I am beyond impressed and so thrilled with this doggy daycare. Lila, my sweet and sensitive 3 year old rescue, has had the best experience here, and she is so excited to go every single time. The workers truly care, and they get to know your dog and you -- the first few times I came in, I was shocked to see how they recognized myself and Lila and took the time to explain how she was doing. Matt, Jackie, and the rest of the staff are incredibly experienced and know the dogs inside and out, and they are able to assess each dog in the initial evaluation and create an enjoyable environment for them, based on the dog groups and different rooms (indoor and outdoor) that they take them through. The staff are all so talented and in touch with each of the dogs in the daycare, which makes me feel reassured with their attention to detail and kindness in caring for each individual dog. Additionally, beyond what you see in person when you visit, the doggy cam is so helpful with alleviating worries and feeling connected to your dog. I see the staff working so hard to keep the dogs engaged, cleaning up accidents immediately and sanitizing, and helping to calm them down during naptime, which is enforced everyday during the middle of the day. It's so sweet how they pay attention and look after the dogs -- for example, on a colder day, they put a lil jacket on Lila to help keep her warm because of her short hair, along with the other dogs with shorter hair. I thought that was so adorable and considerate! They streamline any possible stress and logistics of doggy daycare, since you can drop off in the morning for full day or later on after 2pm for a half day, along with food that you would want them to give your dog. There's no need to call ahead of time or worry about cancellations for daycare like other places. They have a waiting list but its to ensure that they have the capacity to actually get to know your dog and provide you with a peace of mind when dropping off whenever you need to. It's the best run doggy daycare for sure, not just in Baltimore, but throughout the Northeast in the other areas I have lived in previously and tried out. I am so happy I found this daycare, since I now know that Lila has a safe and fun place to go on my busier days with people who care about her, and I could not recommend more!
We have been taking our pups here for years and I'm pretty sure they like being here better than being at home.
I love this place. They make it so easy and it’s pretty affordable for what you get. I’ve also done boarding here and it’s also a breeze. I’ve never had any issues and my dog is so excited to be dropped off here!
We adopted an 18 month old terrier who had some trauma issues… and we were worried he wouldn’t adjust. But they have been great with him!! Adley loves it! He goes a few days a week and he spent the night for 4 days. The staff is great! Very kind and welcoming. Grateful for GDDC!
Have used GDDC for about half a year for daycare and boarding. They run a very tight operation and screen new dogs to make sure there are no issues with aggression. During the day, dogs are grouped together with a monitor to make sure there is no trouble. Dogs are moved across multiple areas and provided time for eating and napping to keep them engaged. For boarding, dogs are entirely crate-free. There is a camera monitoring system so you can check in on your dog throughout the day. Felt safe enough to do a 7 day boarding with our own dog and it was a great experience.
