We'd had a long Skype session with Rick and Donnalane before we left for Europe and it felt like old friends catching up when we finally met. Rick greeted us at Perpignan airport and drove us to Argelès. After meeting Sherlock and settling in, they made us feel even more welcome by taking us to lunch down by the Port. Once they'd left, Sherlock took over the hosting duties. He introduced us to Rick and Donnalane's friends, the local shops, nearly every street corner in Argelès, and even one or two of his girlfriends. He took us on walks every day, even venturing up into the foothills of the Pyrenees, and showed us how to catch the little tourist train that shuttles people back and forth to the beach. At home, he kept us entertained with his affection and his antics, and if we ever misplaced anything – a shoe, glasses case or wallet – you could always find it in Sherlock's hoard! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Argelès and feel we have found three new friends.
I had a wonderful time in Lübeck with Merlin and Moggy. Both of them are uncomplicated and made taking care of them very easy for me. They quickly got used to me as their food provider and petter. Sybille's apartment is tidy, very cozy, and has everything you need for everyday life. I was able to work remotely very well and felt very comfortable. Sybille is a wonderful and communicative person. She showed me everything from public transportation to excursion tips, and everything you need to get around.
Wonderful stay with a lovely cat in a lovely home. It was perfect for a writer's retreat!
Arabella was super warm, welcoming and has a beautiful home! All the doggies and cats are super nice, they all have a unique personality and we greatly enjoyed to take care of them. We also got the opportunity to discover the surrounding areas, we are super grateful!!! Thanks a lot 🥰
Trip was wonderful! Doc and his pal Mojito are extremely easy to look after and David was very communicative and welcoming. Definitely would recommend!! I had a blast.

Catalina Chao worked with our little puppy, Piper! She was just 6 months when we started and I saw an immediate improvement in behavior! She helped my husband to learn that training is about providing a safe environment for our dog, not about aggressive control over her! She gave us great hands on help and support! Plus her explanations for how to do things and process was very helpful for us since we both have ADHD! We can’t wait to bring her back for a check-in/refresh!
This is probably the most convenient doggie daycare around. Whether you need daycare for a half day, full day, or even boarding, they make it very easy to set things up. I added a premium bath and received my dog feeling loved, super clean, and you can tell he had a great day. Great customer service, and you get report cards that help you know how your pet did. Highly recommended.
My girl loves it here! I was worried about where to keep her for our vacation. She is just a puppy so has a lot of energy. A friend referred us here & he was absolutely right. She absolutely loves Best Friends Furever, Joppa. On her first day, she made new friends instantly. She gets to play & swim all day (she loves the puppy pools). We are currently boarding her there for a 5 night vacation & I check her new pictures out they upload daily. It makes me feel good to know she is in good hands. The staff is great & so welcoming as well.
We brought our adopted puppy Penny here for the elite training program because, frankly, she was a handful -- a husky, shepherd, bull terrier mix at 12 months old and 45 lbs. However, Catalina was up to the task! She accomplished so much in her 9 weeks that we could not have done at home having our 2-year old and our other commitments. Catalina provided the steady hand and consistency that dogs need in these first two years. I never saw her lose her cool or get frustrated with Penny, nor have I seen the other staff ever say an unkind work about a dog, whether visiting, training or boarding. We loved having the live feed during the day to see what was happening, and the training video report cards were a great help. The ladies at the front desk were awesome and so were all of the handlers. The in-house grooming services are excellent, too. We will continue to bring Penny here for play dates throughout the year. I gave them a 5-star rating, not because they are perfect but because you will not find a more caring group of people and well organized team than this Joppa BFFE location.
I have had a great experience so far with our 3-month old puppy, Charlie, attending full day daycare at the Joppa location. I was super nervous because I wasn't sure how he would react or how other dogs would react to him or how well he would be taken care of. The handlers are awesome and well trained to keep a safe and fun environment.This week starts week two and we plan on continuing with 2-3 days a week for him to attend. I love that you can watch them all play on the cameras during the day (although Teeny Field 1's camera is super blurry....Teeny Field 2's camera is perfect). The staff are super friendly, all around, and show Charlie all of the love. The hours for drop off and pick up are great (although a 7pm pick up during the week would be better because I work in PA but that's just my personal wish...the hours in general are great for the majority of folks and that's all that matters so I will make it work!) I plan on expanding our services at BFFE to include boarding, training and grooming in addition to daycare. Thanks for all you do to keep our dogs safe and happy as well as exhausted when they get home!
We love best friends fur ever! My dog Ellie has a blast at daycare, and boarding when we travel! The staff is very knowledgeable and loving towards all the dogs! We trust them with our baby and know she will be taken care of and have so much fun! Bff gives us peace of mind and we love the pictures and report cards they send!
This is the first time I’ve taken my dog to a day care and she loved it! The early drop off hours are awesome! I loved being able to watch her on camera during the day and they even uploaded pics to her profile. Great care for my girl!
Loved loved LOVED taking my puppy Eloise here for her 2-week training. She trained with Catalina & I saw such amazing improvement just in those two weeks. Great staff, play areas, and much more. During her training program, I not once had an issue/hiccup in the process. Highly recommend for your puppy or older dogs!
We came in with our roughly one year old dog who was very dog reactive. We could barely take him on walks. In the 9 weeks of the elite program, he no longer has a bad reaction to dogs, he has mastered sit and stay, and he has enjoyed going to “school” everyday. His recall has gotten incredibly good as well. The entire staff was so attentive and diligent to Radar’s care. We are so grateful to Catalina for helping our boy be the good dog that was always in him.
This was a first time visit, and it was for the day only. I'm sure with more visits I'll be able to move the rating to a 5 star. My dog was scared at arrival, but she went with the team member to the back and all seemed fine. I was able to check in on the cameras, and received email report on status. Check in and out were simple and fast. Several team members worked with my dog throughout the day. Was briefed at pickup on how she did. The experience was as expected. I recommend BFF for day long visits. I will try the overnight stay soon.
