I wish I could give bonus stars to Joseph! This is his second sit, and I'm positive our dogs love him more than us. We have three and while super mild mannered, three is still three! Joseph knocked it all out of the park. We came home to three exhausted dogs (still not sure what magic he did there) and a spotless home. I have a large collection of plans and he even cared for them well and mowed our yard for us! Truly spectacular. Oh, and he's a great guy. We've had the chance to meet a couple of times in transitions, and just a stellar guy as well. Thank you, Joseph. I hope you'll be back!
Corinne was an amazing house and pet sitter! I liked her immediately when we first spoke on the phone and it was a pleasure meeting her and her partner Dylan in person. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my home and pets with them. They were easy to communicate with and asked great questions that showed they really cared about the home and my pets. They sent regular updates on my pets who warmed up to them very quickly. I hadn't had anyone care for my senior cat for quite some time and was worried on how she'd do, but they soon had her cuddling with them and feeling very relaxed and loved. She also really connected with my dog who is a special needs dog and not the easiest to care for. It was a great feeling knowing they were so cared for. Corinne made the transition and introduction to the house and pets very easy and she left the house exactly as she'd found it and kept it very clean and orderly. She even cleaned all the towels and linens she'd used and made the beds back up. She went the extra mile of getting my dog to a neighbors house and making sure everything was in order when we decided to extend our trip another day. She even replaced my coffee maker which hadn't been used for a long time and I didn't realize was broken! Corinne was an extremely generous guest and I highly recommend her as a very trusted house/pet sitter!
Pet care from Amy was a 10++. Everyday was a new adventure, s ride in the car, a walk to visit their dog friends, a walk to get their exercise, a lot of petting and loving. This was Amy’s first sit with TH and she was a pro with the dogs. Highly recommend Amy for your next adventure. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed. Neighbors were asking for her card, a testament to the job they saw her doing.
Jayne was very welcoming when we arrived and explained everything thoroughly. Her home is lovely and located in a good central spot. Her cat Fudge was so friendly and loved a cuddle. Tammy was more independent. It was a pleasure to pet sit for Jayne and would thoroughly recommend. Hope we can get to stay again another time too

Justine is amazing with our dogs. They are both show dogs (Keeshonden) so it’s important for us to know they are being carefully looked after. Justine treats our furry babies like they are hers. Our boys always enjoy their time with Justine. She’s the best!!!
Trustworthy, reliable, flexible, and love dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages and temperaments! My dogs love the Comforts of Home sitters, they are always so excited to see them. I am constantly changing my schedule; adding and subtracting days during the week...they are superb at keeping track of your needs and your dogs' needs. They are also great communicators...if anything is wrong (dog seems sick, dog limps during a walk, etc.) they always let me know. It's so great for us dog owners who can't be at home all the time to know that we have someone we can count on to keep our dogs happy and healthy in our absence.
We have been boarding our dog with Justine with 2 years. She is very trustworthy and reliable. She takes good care of our little guy and he always comes home happy.
Justine is the best animal person I have ever met. Her care and understanding of all animals and their needs is amazing. Her attention to every detail of care is like no other care giver I have ever met. I don’t usually trust anyone with my animals but after meeting Justine I knew I would have complete peace of mind leaving her in charge. She also took care of my home, plants and made sure everything was perfect for my return. She called with updates and pictures so I never felt like I was separated from them. Justine also walks my dogs several days a week. She is punctual, loving and very responsible. I recommend her to everyone looking for the best care possible. I highly recommend Justine and Conforts of Home! You can too!!!
I highly recommend Justine and her business, Comforts of Home Petsitting, to people in search of a quality, professional and reliable pet sitting service. I have been a loyal patron for several years. I trust Justine with our 4 pets as well as our home, as I have given her a key. Justine is an honest, knowledgeable and hardworking person who understands animals. When we return from being away we can tell our pets are happy and have been well cared for. I am very blessed to know Justine and I hope you will give her the opportunity to take care of your pets too!
Good friends recommended Justine’s services and we could not have been happier! She welcomes each pet into her home with open arms and loves each of them as if they were her own. Great large fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time. Our dog is happy to see us on our return but loves to go back for more fun and love. Comforts of Home is just that for your pet!
Justine is the best ! Always going above and beyond. She takes such good care of my dogs. It's such a relief knowing that you have someone that's so reliable and never to have to worry. Thank you for all you do !
Justine has been helping us with dog walking & boarding services for about 2.5 years. She has been 100% reliable with mid-day dog walks; Justine was even coming twice a day during the puppy stage. She has a beautiful home with a large fenced in yard where she boards the dogs. My dog (Abby) has stayed more nights than I can count and she always comes home happy! Abby gets plenty of exercise and time with other dogs while she’s there; I never have to worry about her. Besides that, Justine is flexible with scheduling and has always been able to meet our needs or even last minute requests. She is a true animal lover at heart and cares for the dogs like her own. Justine has even coached us through some challenging behaviors our dog exhibited. I am so grateful to have a knowledgeable, loving, and dependable resource like Justine!
Justine has been our dogwalker for the past 6 years. She goes above and beyond and always keeps us informed. Our dogs love her and she is extremely reliable and is always so flexible to our schedule. She is top notch!!!!
Justine is absolutely amazing with Sammie, our black lab! We couldn’t be happier and feel so secure when leaving Sam with Justine!!! Wouldn’t take Sam anywhere else!
I have been using whiskers since 2019 and they never disappoint. Barb and Liz are angels, really. They work so hard about making sure we always have the same sitter (they’ve even adjusted schedules around more than once to ensure this happens). Our dogs are always so happy and perfect when we return. I trust these ladies immensely. It makes leaving these sweet babies just a little bit easier knowing they are in such good Hands.
Liz and her team are amazing and extremely professional. We have used Whiskers 2x now and have been very happy. We can go away and not have to worry about our dog or our home. We will 100% continue to use them for all future trips.
Whiskers is a truly caring and excellent business. The entire team demonstrate a level of professionalism I have not seen before. Whiskers always goes the extra step for all of their clients. I have never had a negative issue or a bad experience! They definitely deserve four paws up!
Whiskers has done an amazing job with our dog, Lucia! Our pup has significant 'stranger danger', and barks a lot at new people. So it takes a patient and determined dog walker to work their way into Lucia's circle, and we really needed help during work hours and for vacations. Lucia has very much 'cozied up' to two of Whiskers dog walkers, because they are loving, kind, and patient people. Liz and Barb are very nice and organized, and we feel lucky to have found them to help with walks and overnights when needed. Thank you Whiskers!!!!
My dog is epileptic and requires extra care. Finding a professional, loving dog sitter who would stay at my house when I was away was very important. Liz and Barb are terrific. They send photos daily. I can relax and enjoy my holidays knowing Charlie is well cared for. I highly recommend Whiskers Pet Sitting.
Such a wonderful experience with Liz and Whiskers Pet Sitting! Very reasonable prices, extremely reliable, responsible and they communicate well. We wouldn’t trust anyone else and highly recommend their services.
We have been Whisker clients for many years and are very pleased with the care, reliability, availability, professionalism of this service. Barb and Liz are wonderful! They are like family to us. When we are away, we can relax knowing that our doggie is in their kind, loving, responsible care.
I never write reviews but I felt the need after my experience with Whiskers. My dog has a stomach issue and requires meds 3 times a day. Before his stomach issues we always used a local dog sitter who would take dogs into his own home. Since then we have only used sitters who can sit at our house. We had a 15 day trip scheduled for September and found out 4 months before the trip that our regular sitter would be unavailable. We started researching new sitters immediately . As I am sure you know, it's not easy finding someone to trust to stay with your pet and home. Our vet recommended Whiskers and 2 other sitters. We met with the Whiskers owner (Liz) twice. Once alone and once to introduce use to the sitter she was assigning to our dog/home. For some reason she said it would be an issue to have the same sitter for all 15 days (we did not want multiple sitters - tried it once and it was a mess). Eventually we were introduced to someone who could commit to all 15 days. During this meeting we asked for references for the actual sitter. Liz seemed upset by this. She wanted to provide a reference to her company only. I wanted a phone number to speak to someone who had used the sitter she was assigning to our dog. Liz said she would get back to me. We also asked for the sitter's phone number so we would tell him when there was a package coming and to ask for an occasional photo of our dog. Liz said no - all communication would have to go through her. I reminded her that we would be in a time zone 7 hours ahead and that we needed direct communication. Again, Liz would think about it. 3 days after the meeting (4 weeks before we were leaving from our trip) we received an email from Liz saying we were not the right fit. We emailed back and called. She would not speak to us. No more contact. How could you do this to anyone? It took us months to find and agree on Whiskers. What a horrible experience. I can't remember the last time I was so upset by something a vendor did to me. The only thing I can think of is we were fired because we asked for a reference and a mobile number. I would never ever recommend a company that treats people this way. ZERO STARS!
I have used Whiskers Pet sitting for over 5 years with 2 of my adopted greyhounds. They are the absolute best. They are honest, reliable, and compassionate. I worked 12 hour shifts in a New York Hospital and was completely at ease knowing they were always there no matter what. No one is as dedicated and loves pets as much as Barbara and Liz and their staff. I truly love them and highly recommend them. Faith Ricciotti of Fairfield
Whiskers Pet Sitters have been the most responsive and dependable pet sitters for our 4 furry children. They are a big part of the family. We had to move 2 years ago from MA to CT and one my biggest concerns was how are we going to find a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. We tried a few but none of them we could count on long term. I then tried the owners at Whiskers and they have been nothing but fabulous these last 2 years. My wife and I travel for work often and take extended vacations and my pets are well cared for! I get pictures twice a day from them and they also do other things if needed, like getting my mail, watering my Christmas tree, basically anything I have asked of them, they have done. If your pets are as important to you as ours are to us then you should give Whiskers a try.
I love this facility, it is my favorite place to bring my dog. They are clean, the staff is friendly, they are dog people! Wag Central is not a place you want to go when dogtopia is around!
My angel Limão loves Dogtopia. He unfortunately had surgery after shattering his leg, but he was still able to socialize safely at Dogtopia (the workers put him and another small dog separated in a pen to avoid him from getting trampled by bigger dogs). He is a small guy but he loves his friends at dogtopia!
The staff are very kind and attentive! Always willing to answer questions, provide support and show my pup all the love and always remember his name. They also provide clean and organized services :)
I wish they had more stars to choose! Dayna and her team are amazing and I can't thank them enough for all they do each and every day. Not only taking care of my Luna, but everything that is offered, extra treats, games, etc. Thank you ALL. Deana and Parnel Mortimer
Our Dog Waffles loves the staff and comes home a sleepy puppy that definitely got his enrichment!!
Recently enrolled our 11yo Fox Terrier at Dogtopia in Shelton. This is a big step for us. He's a really good dog, little with a big attitude, bark, and sometimes painfully anxious. Dogtopia is very clean & spacious while staff is friendly & knowledgeable. We have another puppy at home but hoping this helps curb his anxiety!
Dogtopia of Shelton is a great place for your fur babies to stay for the day or an extended stay! The staff is friendly & knowledgeable and their rates are super affordable! Buster loves joining his friends at Dogtopia and always has a great time!
Friendly, caring staff, very clean facility. Highly recommend.
The staff is welcoming and friendly. My dog receives wonderful care.
We were in the area just visiting and my dog needed to be groomed. I took him in without an appointment, they were able to see him and it was all very quick. My dog came back clean, smelling great and looking good. The team was very nice and gave my dog—who is very shy and a little skittish at times—feel at ease and comfortable. I would highly recommend the Dogtopia team at Shelton.
I am so glad that I found Destiny! One of my dogs is very anxious and she handles her so well. She sends me pictures and updates about the dogs every day. She also is super responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up times for me which I appreciate so much. I highly recommend her to anyone in the area, and have already recommended her to my friends!
Destiny has been wonderful and our Trixie loves going to visit! She's got a great set up in the back yard and will share posts or pics of your puppers throughout his or her stay. We've used her for boarding services a few times in the past year and she's always been accommodating. Destiny is wonderful to work with and I would recommend her to anyone in the area!
I was so nervous to put my puppy in daycare, and I wasn't sure how I could trust someone else with her. But once we met Destiny, I knew she would take such good care of my baby! Destiny is so professional, reliable, trustworthy, extremely responsive and communicative, and most importantly she loves my puppy so much. Mia lights up when she sees Destiny, and it makes me so happy! I work a very demanding schedule, so I don't get to socialize my girl, and I can't really get her outside to play, so the days that Mia is at Destiny's Daycare are perfect! She has so much fun playing with all her friends, gets all her energy out, and comes home happy and exhausted! I 1,000% recommend Destiny's Dog Daycare/Boarding! Wouldn't trust anyone else. 🙂
Destiny is a great dog sitter! We have been using her for a few months and she has been so accommodating, kind, and patient with our Cooper! If you are looking for a place to send your dog to I 100% recommend using Destiny!
Destiny is so phenomenal with our two dogs! They love going to see her and they both freak out with excitement whenever we pull on her street. She’s also always available even on short notice, and very communicative on how the pups are doing, even sending us pictures regularly. We recently moved across the state but still always use destiny to watch our pups because nobody else compares. Would highly recommend her!
Over Thanksgiving I had to board my 4 year old German shepherd for the very first time. Destiny did a meet and greet with us and explained everything in detail and made me feel comfortable trusting her with my fur baby. During my dogs stay she sent me pictures and updates everyday, she made the whole process easy and comfortable. My dog is staying again in 2 weeks! Thanks Destiny!
Destiny is by far our best choice when we needed a dog daycare. She is very friendly, trustworthy, and dependable. My dog always receives the care and attention he needed. Highly recommended.Definitely we use her service again.
I am so grateful I found Destiny. Madison LOVES going there, whether for the day or overnight. Destiny provides plenty of fun and exercise. When I pick Maddie up, she sleeps the entire way home and most of the following day! As they say, “a tired dog is a happy dog” I love my dog and we spend most of our time together. It's very comforting to know she is in good hands and having fun when we are apart. I wouldn't bring her anywhere else.
We had a terrific experience today with Destiny Dog Daycare. Last minute need to be in Connecticut from Long Island and day boarding for our Mini Golden Doodle. Destiny was professional, sent us a video of Piper, friendly and knowledgeable with pets. Our dog Piper had a great day with Destiny. We highly recommend her and her Dog Daycare!!!👍👍👍👍👍
I had to fly last minute and I was so happy to quickly get my dog set up for boarding With Destiny's Dog Daycare/Boarding. He (my dog)absolutely loved it, and I loved being able to see pictures of him while I traveled. And Destiny was so kind and helpful.
We love Camp Bow Wow! Dante and Myka love coming here! The staff is phenomenal and it's clear the staff really love the dogs! We always trust that they will follow our instructions during boarding. It's always easy to get in touch with someone if we have a question or need to check in on our pups. The facility is super clean!! We've used many other daycare facilities in the area and we've always had issues. We've been using Camp Bow Wow for just over a year now and it's been great since day one!
Sending our dog to Camp Bow Wow for daycare and boarding while we are away has been one of the best decisions we have made for his care. Everyone we spoke to and encountered there was so helpful. Booking his time is so easy on the app and the staff was great at answering our questions. They also sent me a text to confirm pick up time from boarding to properly schedule his bath which was a very nice touch. We are really happy & will def keep sending our pup to camp!
The best hands down! I'm so happy I chose Camp Bow Wow for my dog Hazel. The staff are very friendly and is great at what they do! Hazel gets excited every time I drop her off at the Camp. I highly recommend their services!
My fur baby Taquito, aka Taco, is an extremely social dog who needs constant interaction. He enjoys Camp Bow Wow so much. I am very thankful that I can bring my Taco Baby to a daycare where I know he is getting the best care and all the interaction he needs during the day. With such amazing staff, activities, and fair prices, I would 100% recommend Camp Bow Wow to anyone looking for a doggy daycare.
Both our boys, Bear and Banjo love camp! The greeting they receive when we walk in the doors will put a smile on your face. I know that they are in good hands. I can check on them at any time of the day on the live cameras. The amount of hugs and belly rubs they get from the counselors shows me how much they care. The socialization with other dogs is great. They come home exhausted.
I boarded my dog Rainy for a day and since she has an abusive background, I had quite a few requests for Camp Bow Wow & the staff was so understanding of these requests. I can see that everyone cares deeply about their jobs, especially Alyssa & Victor who were so helpful when I called to check on Rainy! I always worry about leaving my baby girl because she’s so shy and takes time to warm up to people; however, Camp Bow Wow made me feel so comfortable about leaving her and knowing she’ll be well taken care of! I will be boarding her more often 🙂🙂 Thank you again for taking care of her and adhering to all my requests!
Amazing place! I was so nervous to drop off my super nervous rescue dog but he had an absolute blast and seemed excited to go to the daycare! The staff are experienced, kind and helpful and seem to be so good with the dogs!
Staff is always courteous and responsive, willing to work with "campers" families. My son was nervous about leaving "his" dog for we could go on our first ever family vacation; Staff knowing this sent updates and pictures of Coco while we were away helping to alleviate my sons worries.
Camp Bow Wow in Bridgeport has truly been a home away from home for our pup. The care they provide is exceptional, and it's clear that they genuinely love what they do. Our dog Leo always has the best time there, and we feel so comfortable leaving him in their capable hands. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the facilities are clean and well-maintained. We couldn't be happier with the service they provide. Highly recommend!
We love this location, because of the experience and passionate employees. The facility is clean and spacious for my Corgi to run and play. I would definitely recommend you bring your pet here and see for yourself.
Donna was a God-send!!! Our German Shepherd, Barkley, who usually barks when people come to the house, was put at ease by Donna’s gift with animals. He came around so beautifully due to her calm demeanor, kindness, and treats :), and he knew right away she was the leader. His brother, Peanut, took to her immediately as well, and we were able to go on a four-day vacation with complete comfort and confidence that everything was OK at home. We are so grateful to Donna and are awe of her remarkable ability to understand what the animals need, and in turn, provides excellent, emotional and physical care for both animal and the owner! THANK YOU, Donna!
We could not be happier with Donna and I am sure Roxy feels the same way! Donna really loves the animals she cares for. When we went to Disney in November, Roxy was sad when we left, but I even think she was sad when we returned since she knew her stay-at-home vacation with Auntie Donna was over until the next one! Roxy looks forward to her daily exploration walks, belly rubs, and spending time with Donna. I highly recommend Bed & Biscuits Pet Sitting Services for all your pet needs!
Donna cared for my cats while I was away this month celebrating my anniversary. Donna is the only person I trust to care for my pets because she goes above and beyond in her level of care and dedication. I trust her more than my family members to care for my animals like I would. My cats love her, I get daily updates on how they are doing, eating, playing and doing their business. She is absolutely reliable and professional. I will not use any other service to have access to my home and pets. Donna is a staple in our family plans for travel because I know they will be safely cared for by someone who loves them and is trained in pet CPR. I can enjoy my time away with peace of mind. I'm so grateful to have found Bed and Biscuits Pet Sitting, we are ongoing customers for the past two years. Thank you again, Donna!
We were lucky to find Donna! She provides very thorough care and is very detailed in her approach. She "interviewed" us and our pets, Blake (dog) and Holly (cat), before our trip to learn their routine. She sent us texts while we were away to keep us up to date with pictures showing how our pets adapted to our absence. Donna really catered to our pet's personalities and quirks!
Donna and Chuck of Bed and Biscuits have been our trusty dog walker since March 2019 when we got our dog. Donna set up a meeting with us prior to hire, and the whole process was professional and seamless. We know our one year old golden doodle is safe and in good hands with them. I get a detailed report (and cute pictures) of how my dog is feeling everyday. I look forward to it, and Donna will alert us if there’s anything out of the ordinary with our dog. Peace of mind guaranteed!
Donna and her husband have been watching my two cats over the past year and between me and my two little ladies we could never ask for a better pet sitter! Donna is so warm towards my ladies and while I am away, she ensures each day she cares for them I get a thorough update. Recently, she even went out of her way to help me continue to transition my ladies to a raw diet.
If i could give her more stars i would. As a newlyweds just starting out, we were on the fence about getting a pet sitter or even if we could afford one. On our wedding day, our cat got very sick. Had we not taken the leap and hired Bed and Biscuits. Our Cat would have died the very day, in a matter of hours says the vet. Donna saved our cat. She goes above and beyond for her clients, making sure they’re comfortable. Introducing different techniques and even taking picture of food option at the local pet store, when we were away. For our joseph who is now on a special diet.
If you want to KNOW your animals are loved and well cared for in your absence, then you should absolutely use the services of Chuck and Donna. We never went anywhere without bringing our dogs with us because I couldn't imagine leaving them with someone. That all changed when we met Chuck and Donna. My girls get SOOOO excited when they come. I get text msgs after the visit and I can tell you first hand, they will treat your babies with the love you want them to have. The freedom they've provided for our family is incredible. I will recommend them over and over again.
I highly recommend Donna and Chuck for pet sitting. I was able to go away on my vacation knowing that my cat was getting lots of love and attention. They took care of my mail, trash and checked my house every day. Also Donna sent me a daily text to keep me updated that all was well with my kitty.
Donna is amazing! I am very selective on who can care for my pets and she exceeded my expectations. Very reliable, daily updates, I had no worries and could enjoy my time away without having to worry! Highly recommend!
Josh and his team are amazing with our two dogs Mona and Sparky. They are both rescues with difficult behaviors. Josh was the only dog-walker that was willing to take on the challenge and help us to walk our pups. After one year we can’t be more happy with the teams service.
Josh has been taking care of our 3 cats for at least 7 years and does a wonderful job. We always have peace of mind knowing he is on the job so we can enjoy our vacation highly recommend him
Highly recommend Woodbridge Pet Sitting! The staff is great! We have been using their services for well over a year and they take great care of your animals. Our dog just loves them!
I am so happy I found Woodbridge Pet Sitting when I moved to the area. My energetic Labrador greets Joshua or another staff member at the front door with wags an bounces - everyone else he barks at until he sees you! I only know this because I was here unexpectedly one day and hat he got a visit, I also got to see how much attention he gets with ball throwing and just general affection. I’m pleased to have found a company to can trust my dog to!
They will take care of all your pets as if they were their own. Always prompt and professional. Willing to adjust to your needs and your pets! Also many years of experience so you can trust them.
Woodbridge Pet Sitting has been caring for our pets (and house) for the past 10 years. They are extremely reliable and go above and beyond (including driving to our house at 4 am to meet the fire department when a faulty smoke detector set off a false alarm). We had 2 senior cats with special needs and a cockatiel, given very good care by WBPS. After those beloved pets passed, WBPS has been visiting our 2 cats since their kitten hood whenever we are away. Our house is isolated and gets a lot of snow and ice, WBPS always comes thru for us. We never have to worry when we are on vacation. Wood Bridge Pet Sitting is the best!
We hired Josh from Woodbridge Pet Sitting because our dog was old and we didn't want to bring him to the kennel. We couldn't be happier with Josh's professionalism and the great care he gave to our dog.
Great service, We have used them for years! The dogs get super excited to see them and they are reliable, trustworthy . We highly recommend their service.
I highly recommend using this company for pet sitting. They are reliable and professional. I knew my dog was well taken care of when I used their services.
Josh & team are the best. Nelson was relaxed and comfy in his own home. Thankyou....
Erica has been caring for my pup Cleo for over two years now and is just the best. She's reliable, professional, and goes above and beyond to try and accommodate even last-minute requests. Erica is very attentive and always lets me know if something seems off with my dog (stomach issues, etc.). She also gives recommendations without being asked, which I appreciate given her extensive expertise. Cleo absolutely loves her too!
Erica is fantastic and a life saver! We were fortunate to recently adopt a 2 1/2 year old bulldog, Maisie. She had been in a shelter for over six months, so she is still a bit skittish around new people. Maisie has adjusted well in our home, but we had two long planned trips that we hadn't thought about, that's when Erica saved the day! She was able to come to our home and care for Maisie while we were away. Maisie loves her walks with Erica! Knowing Erica was taking good care of her reduced our anxiety about being away for Maisie.
My dogs have unique care requirements. Erica didn't miss a beat and took wonderful care of our two dogs. We will continue to use them for every vacation. Editing to update post. Erica continues to provide wonderful care for our two Jack Russells.
Erica did a fantastic job caring for our cats. The best part was being able to see photos and news of them on her Facebook page. Especially appreciated her being available on holidays and on short notice. Will definitely be a repeat customer!
Erica is amazing and I’m so glad I found her! She takes such good care of our boy Baxter. We have had Bax there for day care and more recently for overnights and for the first time I am not worried about him while we are away! She posts pics and sends updates which we love and he gets so excited when we pull down the street. That is the ultimate test and compliment in my eyes. He truly loves being there. We would definitely recommend Erica and we are already repeat customers. There is no one else I trust to watch our boy more than her!!
Erica is a wonderful pet sitter! She takes excellent care of our two kitties, who hate to leave the house so Erica visits them in our home. One of our kitties is very social and the other is very shy, and Erica makes extra effort to connect with the shy kitty, being sure to leave treats and catnip where she will get them. She sends pictures (and sometimes video) of both kitties, and checks in regularly by text to let us know she’s been in and how the kitties are doing. Erica has been caring for our kitties for about a year and we feel totally at ease knowing they are under her care while we’re away. We are so glad to have found her!
This was the first time we ever left the care of our 3 cats to a “stranger”. Erica came over, met all of us, took notes, and was friendly, yet professional. Two of our cats require medication, one of which is medicated every 12 hours and is clever at hiding. This was no problem for Erica! Erica was great at keeping in touch with me over the week sending photos & updates. She also responded quickly to my texts with questions & changes. Upon return our home felt normal, as if we never left. Although there was some grumbling amongst the felines inquiring as to what I did with Erica! Cats! 😺
I'm so happy that we used Scratch 'N Sniff while we went away on vacation. Our dog has a lot of anxiety and taking him with us wasn't an option for this trip. Erica was super accommodating. She was able to make visits to our house so Rocky would be comfortable in his normal environment. She was able to give him his medication, which typically is difficult with him. We were given frequent updates and pictures to make sure we were at ease and knew he was doing well. She even brought in our mail and watered our flowers for us. We will definitely be using this pet service for any trips we take in the future.
Erica does a phenomenal job with your family's pets! We know that when our pup needs somewhere to go that Erica is reliable, professional, and provides high quality service. We never worry about our dog when she is in Erica's care...she is treated like a member of the family. We love that our dog loves going there to see her friends. We HIGHLY recommend Scratch 'N Sniff!
Recently got married and needed someone to watch our dog Blue for a few days, Erica is always the first to pop in mind! Her professionalism and great care for our pup is unmatched! She constantly posts pictures during his stay on her facebook page and keeps us updated with texts. Highly recommend and will use again and again
My dog Pegasus went in for a hair cut. He was happy. Prices were great. Will go again :-)
Needed to board my dog last minute, I had a terrible family emergency. The people there could not have been more helpful and kind. They were able to accommodate our dog, wasn't during the typical busy boarding time. They took excellent care of my little guy. He came home with all his belongings that I left with him and he smelled like my pup not a kennel. He did need little special care during feeding time. He's a picky eater and not being in his normal surroundings doesn't want to eat. The staff was prepared to work with him and did excellent job. Very clean both inside and out in yard. Both the drop off/pick up office and kennel area looked clean and smelled good. Great prices too. Could ask for a better experience. Thank you and Fred will see y'all again.
This kennel is clean! They offer a trial playtime to get your dog familiar with the place. Our dog came home in great shape and was excited when we brought him back for his boarding days. Again, he was happy and healthy when we picked him up. The staff is truly caring and are happy to receive calls when we checked in. We recommend this kennel.
Ansonia Silver Hill Pet Resort has taken such very good care of our pampered English Bulldog Bubba, to the point that he didn't want to leave when we'd go to pic him up. They groomed and boarded him, administering his meds and prescription food for most of his 12.5 years of life. Pat Marin even sent out her search team when I called her to let her know that Bubba, after a two week recouperation, made a break for freedom into the wooded hillside. Pat even came to our house to show how to and then remove a tick from Bubba. They have gone above and beyond right up until Bubba passed in April 2020. We will forever be grateful for the love and care they gave to our beloved Bubba.
My dog loves coming here. Been doing so for 6 years now. Great place, very caring and patient staff, very reliable and flexible scheduling. Highly rec! 🐶😉 …
They know and love dogs. My guy came home in good form. Not stressed at all. Will definitely use them again.
I called this place to bring my dog in and the person who picked up was extremely rude. I was told they are not taking any new pets and he slammed the phone aa I waa speaking..good service needs to be provided all around.
The girls are very nice and my Dog always has a great time. I can tell by the Facebook posts and videos
Boarded our hamster. One of the most affordable places we could find and the staff were very friendly
My pup Haley loves being pampered here. She always smells amazing afterwards!
Fantastic, reliable, and loving pet care. We loved reading the notes left about our pup's adventures on walks. Highly recommended!
Karen and James are awesome and you can just sense their love of animals!
I highly recommend very satisfied.
Hira had an amazing first day at Bark Avenue! Audrey at the desk was amazing answering our questions and assuring us our puppy was having a great first day when we called and at pickup! They were amazing in answering any questions that were asked and she even sent us a photo to confirm our dog was having a blast! 🐾We cant wait to come back for another play day for doggy daycare again!
We love Bark Avenue & more importantly our dog, Newman does too! The facility is very clean, staff is very friendly & helpful. Newman is kept very busy during the day and has a blast. They take theme pictures, which are adorable. We would definitely recommend this place for your dog. Mary & Daryle Pataky
Bo loves Bark Avenue. The facility is immaculate and the staff is friendly, professional and knowledgeable🐾 …
Our dog Lou has been going to Bark Ave for nearly 8 years - home away from home for our doggie! A lovely crew bringing a great space for the pets to let loose and hang for the day -or- have a second home when they need to be boarded. Thanks for everything, Bark Avenue!
Bark Avenue is by far the best day care for your cat. 🐈⬛. Staff were awesome. We left our little boy Oliver for 7 days and left feeling so calm knowing he was getting the best care ever. Please if anyone needs a daycare for your Cat or dog do not hesitate to contact Bark Avenue. So happy I found such an amazing place. Keep up the good work 👏👏👏👏👏♥️ Thank you so much! Sandy & Steve
I love bringing my dog here whenever we are away. ESPECIALLY love that there is a person there overnight unlike a lot of boarding/kennels/daycare centers. MaryBeth is absolutely wonderful with all pets especially rescues.
Bark Avenue goes above and beyond to create a stimulating and comfortable space for our dogs. The accommodations are spacious, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. They have plenty of room for the dogs to stretch their legs and play freely. I can't thank them enough for providing such a remarkable experience for my dog Wyatt. If you're looking for a dog boarding place that exceeds expectations in every way imaginable, Bark Avenue is undoubtedly the place to go. I wholeheartedly recommend them!
My husband and I bring our dog Ollie here. We LOVE Bark Ave! They’re so nice, easy to work with, and truly love animals! Ollie loves going to daycare and staying overnight! It’s such a relief to know he’s in good hands when he’s not with us. We also love that there is always someone there overnight. We trust Bark Ave and recommend them to everybody we know.
My dog Shanti loves Bark Avenue! She comes home tired, happy… Not only are they so great for daycare, They’ll also bathe her and clip her nails. Having bark Avenue available for doggy Daycare has been a game changer when life gets busy. I don’t have to leave my dog home alone and be sad about her being bored, or lonely. She stays socialized, she plays,… Highly recommend!
The Staff is extremely nice and welcoming. Fair prices. Video feed available to watch the dogs in live time. My dog gets extremely excited when we pull up which tells me all I need to know.
