Oh my---Prepare to have the bar set awfully high for any future sits: Your incredibly kind/helpful/fascinating hosts, Sandra and Andy, are excellent communicators (as well as very capable cooks!) and will run you through the ins and outs of Stevecare/household tidbits prior to their departure. Just wonderful humans! Gosh. STEVE. Maybe the sweetest, handsomest Steve in the UK (perhaps beyond)? This fella has personality to spare and a meow (mrawaaww?) that doesn't quit. Steve's real delight for folks who fancy a snuggle buddy but he also doesn't mind a bit of solo time. Feeding and litter are a breeze--What a joy to hang with/care for! Finally, a beautifully curated yet comfortable apartment filled with books and other visual delights? It doesn't get better! Could not recommend this sitting adventure more highly. So many thanks!
Wonder hosts and pets. Everything was very comfortable and made easy for us. We would love to sit again. Thanks Merrett!
I had a wonderful experience at Andrew and Donelle’s. I can’t express more how grateful I am at the opportunity they provided. The memories of my time in the Loire will last a lifetime.
My stay at Francesca's place over the summer was perfect. Minu is a treat to be around, she is lovely, pretty independent but enjoy some good cuddling sessions. Communication with Francesca before and during my stay was very easy. The house has some pretty good vibes, it's in a very quiet street in Richmond city center, close to the shops, the river and the amazing park! I highly recommend pet sitting for Francesca (if i'm not available ;-) )!
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts." I truly believe that getting to know each other and sharing experiences is the best anecdote for a harsh world. Sheelah and her husband are living proof of this! They opened their lovely home to myself, my husband an our newly minted college graduate daughter. They trusted us with their three beautiful cats and lovely home and garden. We enjoyed it all immensly. We were able to explore the area (and then some), come home, snuggle with the kitties and make dinner or go to the local pub for a pint. I cannot understate the importance of these kind of experiences, for meeting new people, learning about how other people to live and even becoming more mindful about trash sorting and consumption culture. It has been a wonderful experience for all of us and one we won't soon forget. And we loved the cats!!
We had a lovely time looking after Dagny and Lola. Dagny was very sweet and gentle. He has a lovely character and loves to play. The house is very warm and welcoming.

I would stay away from this trainer at all costs! I had my three German Shepherd’s trained by Jason and his employees the first day he brought them back you could see they were all both physically and mentally abused between the bite marks on all the dogs as if they were fighting and that you could see the dogs were not eating and you can see their ribs I have veterinary paperwork to prove this. also they had always gotten along together and when returned to me they were fighting with each other to literally a bloodbath, they are our family pets I should have taken legal action against best paw forward but we were taken back by the condition of our animals and try just to move forward and forget about this nightmare, when they came home that it had taken us over a year to get them close to back to normal, so I say once again by no means DONT USE best paw forward! I have proof with pictures of the damage that have been done to my animals both physically and emotionally, so save yourself the nightmare and stay away from them.
Me and my husband have been boarding our two Border Collies with Jason at Best Paw Forward for years now and the dogs are always so excited when they get there, they can barely contain themselves. His place is always very clean and Jason and his staff are always there to answer any questions we have. I wouldn’t board my 2 children anywhere else. I am confident they are treated with the best possible care they can receive. Before I met Jason from Best Paw forward I couldn’t even walk my Great Dane, Louie, without getting dragged around the block. After just 5 minutes into our first lesson Louie was walking right at my side. I did 5 lessons at my home with Jason and I can say it was the best money I ever spent. Thank you Best Paw Forward.
I had my 2 pit bulls board and train with Jason at his facility. I was at my wits end with them when I brought them to Jason. Although they were cutest things they were destroying my home and causing me so much frustration. After 2 weeks of staying with Jason they came back such well-mannered, obedient pups. I would recommend Best Paw forward to anyone that needs help with their dogs.
I met JASON at Best Paw Porward 8 years ago. I had gotten a Dalmation puppy & he was very hard to handle. He was also very aggressive & had nipped someone. JASON took him for 2 weeks & when Spike came home we continued lessons at home with JASON . The first time JASON walked into our home our dog was like a different pup! JASON had way about him & was completely in control in less than 5 minutes!! Spike is doing great & I still use Jason's approach with him. He loves JASON & is now a different dog!! It was the best money we've ever spent. I recommend JASON & Best Paw Forward to anyone who needs any kind of help with their dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to use his services again if we needed them!!
We board our 2 little Yorkies with Jason anytime we go away. It’s their little home away from home. They love it there and we love having them stay there. The videos we get from Jason are the best and they love being around Jason’s packs. I would highly recommend Best Paw Forward to anyone who needs their dogs trained.
We found Jason through our veterinarian . We have a 4 year old Boston terrier that had severe separation anxiety. After staying with Jason he no longer suffered from that disorder and is also off the drug therapy that he was on for 2 years. I truly believe that is because of Jason's expertise in this area . Thank you Jason and best paw forward.
I've known Jason and the team at Best Paw Forward for almost 4 years. They did a wonderful job in helping me to train my two dogs. I've also used the boarding services on multiple occassions. My dogs are always excited when they get there and I know that they are being care for by an owner and staff who love dogs. I wouldn't bring my dogs anywhere else.
Jason really helped our both our dogs, but one in particular (our worse case). We had a bulldog with fear aggression, and a child on the way. We were fearful that we were going to have to give away our "first born" once we had a child if there was aggression towards the baby. Jason not only helped us with the dog around children, but with the fear aggression overall. He was so confident he would be able to help, and that helped us with our confidence, which is so important when working with your dog. Our daughter now lays around and plays with our dog, and both our daughter and our dog are in love with each other. It was the best possible outcome we could have ever hoped for!
Jason helped me train my 2 dogs Jax and Molly. I've been to 3 different trainers that couldn't help me train them. I found best paw forward through my Veterinarian. I'm so glad that i did because now my dogs are trained and well behaved.
He suggested to train my 2 dogs at his place. I paid him $2312.00 when he picked up the 1. dog, he never showed up for the other one. I was told that he had an accident & was in the hospital. My dog was at the Brookhaven Shelter. When my husband picked him up, he was told that Jason was arrested & had a drug problem. In the meantime his family cleaned out the place he was living at which was not the address at the Website. Needless to say, my money is gone.
If you want the best care for your dog then these are the people for you. always cage free and the dogs are cared for the for their entire stay and receive lots of attention. The dogs sitter really knows how to execute the fundamentals flawlessly. I will be returning every time I need my dog looked after.
The best at his job, excellent person
Thank you :)
Amazing! Couldn't ask for better people to watch my dog when I'm away. My dog has been apart of Playdates for Pets ever since he was a puppy (over 2 years now) and they truly treat him like their own. I continue to use them for boarding, walks, and playgroup. Highly recommend them over anyone else in Westchester. They can definitely be trusted with your pooch.
Awesome My quirky rescue is well cared for and loved when we can’t be home . Terrific team! Especially impressive is how much attention he gets. These sitters notice when he’s himself, and when something isn’t right. We were recently away for nearly a week, and the sitters alerted us to a health issue and even took him to the vet for us. They always go above and beyond.
Wanna give a shoutout to Playdates for Pets for taking such good care of my dog while my family was on vacation. My dog was having some personal issues and changes had to be made with his boarding. They quickly and smoothly moved into action with a "plan B"! Thank you so much for putting my family at ease while we were away!!
My dog runs out of the car to get to Play Group! The area is so inviting and all of the dogs love being together. It's set up so that dogs of similar size and energy are together so there's something for any dog. It's truly Oatie's home away from home!
This is the best pet sitting company I have ever had. I’m on my fourth Dog and every single one has loved Lauren and all of her employees. She is truly a mama to each and every one of them ❤️❤️
Great service. Very attentive and reliable. They took care of our cat and even walked him on his leash!
They are awesome.. thoughtful. Great people
Love play dates for pets! Caring, intuitive, and they know dogs!
Very Reliable and trustworthy
My 2 dogs mean everything to me and there are very few people I would trust to take care of them. I have been a client of Suburban Pets for over 10 years and I can't say enough nice things about them. They are attentive, caring and reliable. Their dog walkers treat my dogs as if they are their own. I receive email feedback after each visit and love seeing the pictures they take of my dogs. If you are in need of a dog walker or pet sitter, please do not hesitate to call Suburban Pets, you won't be disappointed!
LOVE them! A great service, at great value, ran by a great team. We used their services for the first time recently when we had to go out of town for a few days, leaving behind a rescue dog we'd only had for 3 weeks, and our two older cats. They paid a visit to us before our trip to understand what we needed, our pets quirks, feeding and walking habits etc. They were as comprehensive as they were professional and caring, and made us feel at ease leaving our beloved pets in their care. The service they gave while we were away was impeccable. They came to visit 4x a day to feed, walk and play as requested and gave us regular daily email updates as to how the visits had gone, how the pets were, and any issues. Twice per day, they even sent us photos so we could see how they were doing! As every pet owner knows, it's tough leaving them behind, and wondering how they're doing without you - Suburban Pets took all of that stress and worry away with their excellent and frequent communication. There was an incident on the first day with our dog not wanting to go back into his room after his first walk - When the staff member had tried on a number of occasions to resolve the situation, one of the partners came over to help and called us to tell us what was happening, even sharing a video. They resolved the issue and moments later our pup was his usual happy self again. We couldn't have asked for more! When we returned, both our cats and our dog were in great spirits, clearly well groomed and looked after - Exactly what we wanted to see. We will be calling Suburban Pets every time we go away from now on and would thoroughly recommend their excellent services. Thank you Therese and Team! :)
