Cat Sitters in Glen Court, VA

I had to think long and hard about writing this review. I don't like leaving bad reviews, I felt the need to warn other pet parents. This was my first time boarding my fur babies. When I picked them up, my oldest had skin missing off her nose. I was told it was from her rubbing her nose against the mat. In my 8 years of having my baby, she had never rubbed her nose against anything. I also put on their feeding instructions to administer one dental treat per day. When I picked them up, the new bag of treats hadn't been opened. When checking them in, it was never mentioned if they weren't able to have them. Now I am wondering if they even feed them as instructed. My youngest baby behind has been super red and it was wet when i picked him up. I decided to write this review AFTER coming back in the house when noticing my oldest baby pooping blood (I have pictures). Some of this could be from the stress of my babies being boarded, but I also think there was neglect on the facility part. I am not only disappointed, but I am also heartbroken for my dogs. I trusted this place to look after them and they missed the mark.

This will be both of our dogs new grooming spot! We boarded Boeing for our vacation because he was not quite potty trained enough to stay in a hotel, and asked if they had any time if they could groom him as well. We received Boeing back in a great mood, he was happy and healthy and smelled great! We’ve hopped groomers for a while and for some reason he has never felt “clean” when we got him back, but his coat was glossy and smooth and he smelled great, and his nails were trimmed perfectly from Almost Home. I highly recommend this spot, especially because they have a great turnover and capacity as we were able to get him boarded within a days notice which is unheard of. They have a great daily boarding rate and you are able to add on special activities for the staff to do with them during his stay.

The best grooming experience we have had! Staff are so obviously dog lovers and did such great work!

12-13-22 still loving Sam! Check out Zoe’s Christmas ‘do! Adorable! Update 2020 they still get 5 stars. The groomer is Sam and she’s fantastic. My OESs are 8 years old now and they really get stressed out. The staff never complained and never said anything disparaging. But it was clear that my girls anxiety fed off of each other and they kept getting worse. We now schedule separate appointments and it is much easier for everyone. Even though there are closer groomers, I would never take them anywhere else. This place is very clean and everyone I’ve met is so good natured. I really appreciate them. —————————————-/————————- 2016. I've been using Dawn for several years for our Old English Sheepdogs. They are a handful but everyone is so patient and nice. Their Villa boarding facilities are top notch. I would never take Zoe and Dottie anywhere else. The fact that the best Veterinarians are right next door is a HUGE plus. Shots and grooming in one stop. My Vet is how I discovered Almosr Home. It's been a match made in Heaven.

My senior Springers board and get excellent grooming at Almost Home. They are always happy to go in and are calm upon pick-up. (Which indicates to me they were not stressed and were attended to frequently.) The staff is friendly, professional and responsive. It's a bit of a drive from where we live but worth it to know that they are in good hands. Would highly recommend!

If you Hate your Dog bring them here. Left to go to a family funeral for 3 days. We signed her up for doggie day school, which she was supposed to be taken and played with every 15 min per hour. We got a room with a camera and checked in every 10-15 min while driving a 12 hour drive. She had been taken out 2 x for the day 10 min each. When questioned, they said she didn't get along with the other dog and was shy and nervous around them. So you don't take the dogs out to the bathroom, great! End result dog came home with a bite mark on her neck and a bladder infection from not being taken out. When we called to complain, we were told they would check with their staff. We Never heard back from Christina. Never again will we use them. They don't take care of your pets the way they advertise or you're told they will. Horrid experiance

While we love to take our dog, Daisy, with us on vacation when we can, it is not always allowed or convenient. Almost Home Boarding & Grooming is exactly what the name says - It is her second home when she cannot be with us. Our Daisy runs into their facility with her tailing wagging because she loves it so much. The staff is extremely friendly and takes wonderful care of Daisy. Daisy is always happy when we pick her up! If you are looking at any old negative reviews, you should know that there are new owners that are amazing!

We love Ms. Jenna! My boys know Ms. Jenna's name and get excited to go see her. She's so sweet and patient with my two wild ones! They always smell so good and have the cutest hairstyles when they come home.

My first experience wasn't the greatest however my last two times using them have been fantastic the staff is very friendly

Great place to board our precious Sparky & Ginger! They had a wonderful time while in your care!

I was lucky enough to be introduced to Lucy's Friends Pet Sitting, LLC last year. We have been able to continue our wonderful relationship, Cooper is so accommodating, we feel absolutely blessed. We have a 15y cocker spaniel Libby, Cooper is so patient with her many ever changing needs. Cooper is trustworthy and dependable. We can fully recommend this company.

Highly recommend Lucy's Friends Pet Sitting, LLC if you are going out of town or just need daily help with your furry friends! Cooper is diligent about getting to know each pet and providing just the right amount of support. It's so great to have someone you can trust and rely on whether it's an overnight or an extended trip.

In short, Cooper and Lucy’s Friends Pet Sitting absolutely rock! Best pet sitting service I have ever used! Paws down! Read on for the many, many reasons I feel thus. As are many pet parents, I’m reluctant to leave my fur babies. In fact, I tend to travel with my cats rather than leave them in another’s care. Recently, I had opportunity to visit Europe for a month, but it meant flying solo sans cats. I nearly passed on the trip because one of my cats requires daily medication, another is terrified of strangers, and the third is prone to anxiety; I didn’t think I’d find a pet sitter with whom I’d be comfortable caring for them for a month. I called around and had some less-than-encouraging conversations with area sitters (few wanted or could accommodate such a lengthy commitment, others weren’t comfortable giving medications, and some just didn’t vibe). I was on the verge of cancelling the trip when I found Lucy’s Friends. From the start, Cooper was professional, agreeable, friendly, and conveyed a clear passion for animals (he volunteers at animal rescues and helps care for feral cat colonies on the island). Cooper came to meet the cats and learn their routine. He also wanted to ensure that he’d be a good fit for the job, which I appreciated (some pets and people just don’t click and Cooper needed to know the cats would be cool with him). He diligently assessed the situation, the cats, and their needs before committing. I was very happy to see that money wasn’t Cooper’s primary motivation (he genuinely wanted what was best for the cats and would have declined the job had he not been absolutely certain he could deliver). During that first meeting, he also administered medication to my special needs kitty thereby assuring me that he could handle the task (his technique is as good as, if not better, than that of many vet techs I’ve seen in action). His warm disposition and obvious love for animals (not to mention the magic he worked with a syringe) sold me! I knew my babies would be in good hands. Every day of my month-long trip, he texted me updates, photos, and videos. When it seemed as if the kitties were especially anxious and missing me, he bought a pheromone dispenser for them! He even brought special toys, along with catnip, to cheer them up. He could have just come by, done the bare minimum, and left (how would I have known, after all?), but he took a genuine interest in their well-being. In my view, Cooper went above and beyond. I could not be more pleased with Cooper and Lucy’s Friends. I highly recommend him and his company! So long as I live on HHI, I won’t consider anyone else when it comes to caring for my fur babies. In sum, if you need a pet sitter, Cooper’s your man! He gets the “crazy-cat lady seal of approval” from me, as well as glowing endorsements from Kush, Bugsy, and Cary Grant!

Lucy's Pet Sitting is fantastic. We have used Cooper and Jen for over a decade. They not only take wonderful care of our cats but also our home. Our cats love them! Their service gives us such piece of mind knowing they come every day to make sure everything is in order. They make traveling a lot less stressful. We highly recommend them!

They've always been wonderful! When I'm out of town, Wolfgang goes to the house twice per day to feed and play with my three cats. They love him (probably because when they see him it means food!) and I feel good knowing they're being taken care of. He is also very responsive if I have a question or want a quick update about them while I'm out of town. I definitely recommend this company! (Picture of my three boys below!)

Cooper and staff are great. They pay close attention to each of my cats and my cats love them. I'm glad I can go on vacation and not worry about my cats. Lucy's Friends is highly recommended.

We recently used Lucy's Friends Pet Sitting services. We can't thank enough Wolfgang. He took care of our cat Anakin. We got texts and pictures after every visit. April is amazing. She organized and controlled everything, dates, visits, all details. These people are true professionals. They don’t just do the job, they care for our pets. I highly recommend Lucy's Friends Pet Sitting. Kate

Micah and his team are incredible, we recently moved to HHI from New England and finding a new pet sitter is not only challenging, but it is emotional because you want your fur babies in safe, nurturing hands. When I first contacted Micah by phone we had a wonderful conversation and I was immediately at ease, we set up a meeting for him to meet our pets to make sure everyone was comfortable with each other. All of our pets, 2 cats and 2 dogs, were immediately drawn to him, and we know animals are the best judge of human character. Even our 17 year old grumpy "I don't like people" cat walked right up to him. We've since used Lucy's on several occasions including trips abroad. And recently had a situation where we needed to call at 8 pm at night to ask Micah to let the dogs out for last call at 10 pm because our return home was being delayed. He immediately assured us he would go to the house and check in on the pets, and if we were delayed until morning, would make sure they were taken care of. Lucy's is the best and gives us a lot of piece of mind that are pets are well cared for and loved while we are away.

We are so lucky to have Lucy's friends for our pet sitting needs. Wolfgang is the best. It is such a peace of mind to know you don't need to worry about the gang while you're away. Our 3 cats love Wolfgang and the playtime. Highly recommend.

We have been using Lucy's Friends for more than a decade. Cooper, and later joined by Wolfgang, have been great caretakers of two generations of cats and a few fish. In addition to pet care, they handle basic away-from-home management, rescuing stray front porch deliveries, weekly shifting of trash cans, and watering plants. I highly recommend them.

I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my Pup to Beacon Pet Suites Resort, and the experience was overwhelmingly positive. From the moment we arrived, I was impressed by the clean, welcoming environment. The resort exudes professionalism, yet it still feels homey and comfortable, which put my mind at ease. Boarding and Daycare: The boarding facilities are spacious and designed with pets’ comfort in mind. My pup had plenty of room to move around, and I appreciated the luxury suites. It’s clear that the staff prioritize both cleanliness and safety, as the areas are well-maintained and secure. During daycare, pets have access to outdoor play areas where they can socialize and exercise under supervision, which I found to be an excellent way for my dog to stay active and engaged while I was away. Staff and Care: The staff at Beavon are knowledgeable, compassionate, and patient with the animals in their care. They made an effort to get to know my dog’s personality and needs, which reassured me that she was in good hands. I received regular updates on her behavior and activities, and the open communication really set this place apart from other facilities I’ve used in the past. Grooming Services: I also took advantage of their grooming services, and I was thrilled with the results. My girl came out looking fresh and happy, and the groomer clearly paid attention to detail. The fact that grooming can be conveniently added to a stay or daycare package was a nice bonus. Overall Experience: Beacon Suites Pet Resort delivers an exceptional experience for both pets and their owners. The facility’s attention to detail, friendly staff, and wide array of services make it stand out in the world of pet care. Whether you’re going on a short trip or looking for a regular daycare spot, I highly recommend Pet Suites and Resort for a worry-free and fun experience for your fur baby . The resort is a perfect mix of high-quality care and thoughtful amenities that pet owners appreciate.

So profesional and accommodating. We got married last year and they brought our babies to the mansion all dressed up & smelling good. They were so patient with our date change, accommodations and anything we asked for. The staff, assistant manager and owner are so nice and professional. I trusted them with our babies and I was able to relax for the night knowing they are well taken care of. We highly recommend Beacon Pet Resort.

BEWARE...Only gave a one star for the first time my pup stayed with them. They went above and beyond on the first stay. They understood upfront that she had PTSD from another facility and did have trust issues from being kept in a cage for two days and food throwed at her. I put her in her suite and she stayed a week. Beacon Suites kept me informed of her stay and i did not worry that she was in good hands. The second time I dropped her off she did not bark and walked right in. I handed her to the young girl and walked out the door. She knew I was leaving her and she kept jumping up on the door to leave. I got to the car and one came out and said she lunged and tried to bite the young girl. They could not keep her. As I entered the facility to get her she ran out the door and I barely got ahold of her leash or my dog would have been gone. She was just scared and knew that I was leaving her. They never gave her a chance. She is a Big German Shephard and only 17 months old at 80 pounds and most people are scared of her and her size. Dogs are smart and can sense it. They told me to get a trainer. When I called a month later to see if I could bring her back and try again to see if she would warm up to them and was told she is no longer welcome there. WOW!!! Very disappointed in this facility and would never recommend them ever again to anyone.

Beacon suites is a high end pet care facility that does a phenomenal job with implicit care for my elderly little man. He’s on a fairly strict medicinal regimen and they kept him for two weeks with no issues! They even have TV’s for them to watch! 🥰 They also have grooming services available. EMMA IS THE BEST, book early, they fill up quickly. Def worth the waiting list.

Beware!! I took my two dogs there and they had their names mixed up which caused them not to give the correct dog her medicine. Claimed my dog was agressive and did not let her out enough while she was there. My dog is 10 years old and has been to several kennels in her lifetime and has NEVER been told that she was aggressive!!!! They must have done something to scare her! I’m glad my dog was not allergic to the medication that they had given her!!! Could have been much worse! And the dog that needed the medication was without it for three days. I am just glad I did not go away longer!! Don’t go here!

I have used Beacon 3 times now. Just picked my German Shepard up this morning after his longest doggie vacation of 9 nights. He has always been a shy and nervous boy, but Beacon puts him at ease. During this stay he was able to try group play (they asked my permission first) and he did good. I love that they post photos on FB so I can see how he is while I'm away. I really trust them with his care. Completely recommend for anyone's fur baby needs.

We travel a good distance to take our dogs to Beacon Suites. Our dogs love going, and I feel they’re treated with love and care while there, but that said, the staff seems very discombobulated as of recent. We’ve been using their services for roughly two years, but the past couple times when following up on requested dates, employees have responded in a confused manner as if they’re completely oblivious to previous communications/bookings/waitlists/etc. I wish they’d become more organized because it’s definitely stressful to loyal customers trying to ensure care for their animals. Overall, we do trust them, and find the extra drive worth it. A couple other notes: • Pay attention to their hours (before noon for pick up, after 3 for drop off). • They also have pretty high fees for using a credit card. It’s not a huge deal, but we always pay cash because of this.

Emma does a fantastic job with our very large doodle, Houston, no matter if it is just a bath or a full groom. He loves going to visit her. She has earned his trust, and he gets excited when we pull in!

Peace of mind for my pups. We love this place. We recently lost our older furbaby right before a trip out of town so our Boston spent her first time alone. We hated to leave her but the staff was so helpful catering to her needs. Absolutely recommend

Our dog gets groomed here only. We have not used the boarding facilities yet. Very friendly staff.

I was extremely nervous leaving our older cat, Ninja, for a couple of days while my husband and I were preparing for our wedding. We had never left her in the care of someone else, but Tony and Lisa made this an easy no-brainer process for us. I was so impressed by the attention to detail Tony showed during our initial meeting. Once we were away, he sent us text message updates and photos of our cat, which we appreciated so much! Such a simple act truly goes a long way. She was getting interaction, play time, and treats. When we got back, I found notes/details of each visit they had with Ninja. I cannot recommend Tony and Lisa enough, and I would absolutely use their services again. If you need a pet sitter in Greensboro, they're the ones to do it!

Tony and Lisa are easy to communicate with and always follow up. They leave detailed accounts of their visits. I feel confident leaving home knowing my dog is being well taken care of and that my house is being looked after! I have used them for 3 weeks over the last two months and have extremely pleased.

I am sure like us your pets are part of your family and leaving them in the care of someone else when you travel can be heart wrenching. Since Tony and Lisa from Home Sweet Home Pet Sitting entered our life we have never worried about leaving our beloved English bulldogs, Elvis and Lola. All you need to do is be home when Lisa or Tony come by and you can tell from your dog’s reaction how much they love caring for your pets. Tony and Lisa also care for your home and keep a watchful eye when you are away. Tony and Lisa are simply the BEST!!!

I hired Home Sweet Home to care for my two cats, and preemptively for my dogs in the future. Tony came for the consultation. He was very professional and wrote everything down on their printed form, which was nice, as he noted little idiosyncrasies and special needs without me having to leave a list. They did exactly as we asked, sent a text update once or twice, left daily visit notes, got my mail, and watered my plants. That's the first time a pet-sitter has ever provided the note detail. Since I have a kitty with asthma, it was nice that they could remark if they observed anything unusual. Very efficient consultation and process. Read the expectations clearly: You need to have a way of them leaving the key on their last day, lest you be charged for a return visit. Ya can't blame them if you don't read the print! Very satisfied--would hire again.

I have used Home Sweet Home Pet Sitting for several visits, over the past several years. I have always been impressed with their level of communication and correspondence with me concerning our pets. Tony has left me text messages to inform me of his visit, as well as notes that are left each day. I would certainly recommend them to others as a great option versus boarding or even using the kid next door!

Tony and Lisa have looked in on my two aged cats for several multi-day periods in the last five or six years and have always done a great job, providing medication to one cat and taking care of food, water and litterbox for both. I, for one, will continue to use them as long as I have pets, am in Greensboro and they are in business. I am completely satisfied with the quality of the services they have provided.

Just got home from a 10-day trip, and it was our first time using Home Sweet Home. Our two cats were much happier than when we board them at the vets or travel with them. Even our extremely timid cat seemed like she had great week at home! Tony was communicative when the wind broke our screen door (it's a chronic problem for us). Definitely will use these guys again!

Tony and Lisa with Home Sweet Home Pet Sitting have been lifesavers! They walk my dog, Milo, every day while I’m at work, which puts my mind at ease. They are so friendly, they take great care of Milo, and he loves them! I would highly recommend using them to watch your pets!!

Nothing but praise for Tony and Lisa! They take wonderful care of our cats when we are away. They are always caring and professional, leaving details of each visit and very quick regarding communication and scheduling. Their fees are very reasonable, but it’s priceless to have no worries about our girls when we are away. If there were a way to give more stars, I would.

A little more than a 1 year ago, a neighbor recommended Home Sweet Home pet sitters to us. At that time we had 2 large breed dogs ( each 100lbs), and they were 4 years and 9 years old, so they had different dietary, exercise and medical needs. As you can imagine, not everyone would sign up for the job! Tony came over and met our dogs…he was comfortable with them as they were with him. We went over their schedules, etc. he took notes and we were ready for our weekend away. When we came home, the dogs were happy, well-fed/exercised, and we had a personal note from each of Tony’s visits, describing what he and our dogs did, hoe they behaved, and what they’d eaten, etc. In addition to caring for our pups, he brought in package deliveries, mail, and brought our trash cans into the garage from the curb, just as an extra service! We knew we’d found “a keeper’! Over the next year, Tony became our regular pet sitter, and we had complete confidence in him and his time with our fur babies. Last October, sadly, our 9-yr, old female was diagnosed with Degenerative Myelopathy (DM), which is basically canine ALS. We were told she may last 2 months or 2 years. At first she managed it very well, as it only; affected 1 of her back legs, and she adjusted to that, falling occasionally and not being able to run as fast as she once had, but quickly deteriorated, and could only go on short walks, falling as many as 10x’s on those walks. We showed Tony how we picked her up and got her adjusted. We even got her “walking wheels”, but she never mastered them, so we managed as best we could. By March, both back legs were affected, and we had to “wheelbarrow her around…Tony jumped right and learned how to help her just as we did, with as much empathy and love compassion as if she were his beloved pet! By May, she could really only drag herself around, but still found enjoyment in swimming, which she did daily, but it was a lot of work. We were now, literally, carrying her out of the pool, and Tony did that, too. In June, our poor girl was suffering, and we had to attend a family wedding in California. (Had it been any other trip, we most certainly would have canceled,) We asked Tony if he would be available, and asked him if, in our absence, something happened to our sweet girl, would he be willing to take her to our vet, etc. He agreed w/o hesitation. Thanks to Tony, our sweet girl lived until we came home and could be with her on her last days. Right after we lost our sweet girl, we received a beautiful sympathy card from Tony, along with a lovely framed picture of our girl that Tony had taken, ball in her mouth, swimming – in her happy place. Our pets are our family, and Tony and Lisa treat our pets as their family. We cannot recommend Home Sweet Home Pet Sitting Service highly enough! They are reliable, dependable, capable, flexible, trustworthy and compassionate. They have been a blessing to our family! Sincerely~ Kim & Jim Lewis (and Teak and Big Gurl!)

This was the first time we utilized this service after learning no one could keep our little dog while we were on vacation. I was greeted by a very friendly young lady at the front desk. She assured me everything would be okay. The place was clean and seemed well organized. You can bring your own food or allow them to feed your pet. Bring your pets a pillow and snacks if you like also. The prices aren't too bad at all. For 5 days I paid 127. That's a cheap price for peace of mind knowing your pet will be taken care of. We will be using these services in the future. It's really great to have something like this locally. I highly recommend Hollywood. Be sure to have all your pets shots. It's best to call ahead and they will gladly tell you which ones are needed before your pet can stay. They also groom as well.

Great staff and nice facilities. Your pet takes their own bed, toys and food with them. Reasonable rates. Penny was there four nights and also had a bath and nail trim for just $25 additional. Also important to us was she was next to other small dogs and indoors at night, not in a dog house in a lot next to a great Dane shed be scared to death of the whole time. She will be staying again! (picture of a satisfied customer)

I’m beyond thankful for them taking my big boy codak at the last minute and we came from Greensboro. The staff has been nothing but good to us and we appreciate you guys to the fullest. Thanks for showing my baby love.

Hollywood Pets is a fantastic, clean, professional, and responsible business that truly takes your pet, ( family member) and loves them like their own. My dog doesn't board well but after visiting Hollywood Pets that's the only place he loves and will stay without any issues. Love you guys thanks for your great service and dedication to our pets.

Hollywood Pets is Amazing! I assure you will not find better grooming or boarding services. They go above and beyond to make customers (doggies) happy and comfortable. When I stepped in their door, I didn't feel like I was at a grooming facility, because it is truly like a pet spa. There upbeat happy people, and wagging tails everywhere. The facility is very clean and hospitable. I will never take my babies, two Yorkshire Terriers, anywhere else. I know I will never find another who cares about, and loves my babies like Hollywood Pets!

We have used Hollywood Pets several times over the last year or so. This past visit will be our last. Our main concern with previous visits would be how our dogs smell upon pickup. It’s bad, maybe a mixture of kennel cleaner, pee and stench, who knows. Either way, they get bathed immediately upon arrival at home and their bed gets aired out, a lot. This time the bed has what looks to be a large pee stain on it. Our dogs are house trained, so it makes me wonder. We also had extra bags food prepared just in case and never received them back, strange. On to today’s issue which leads to our negative feedback. My wife calls in advance of our departure with our travel dates, drop off and pickup times and boarding fees, documenting all. Upon pick up of our pets, the boarding fees were higher than quoted. When this was questioned the owner stated he never gave those prices, he refused to look at the written documentation of such. After some intense discussion he slipped up and admitted a mistake in quoting a price prior to their July price increase, but refused to stick by the original quote or come to any terms of agreement. With this being said, dog owners beware! This business is less than ethical and cannot be trusted by any verbal conversation or agreements. This is an extremely piss poor way to operate a business and expect to retain customers. I would recommend pet owners take their beloved pets to anywhere else for boarding and care due to the fact that this business cannot be trusted on multiple levels. They will never see our $400-$500 dollar boarding visit fees again.

I paid $38 for my miniature schnauzer. My dog was groomed yesterday, and they did a fantastic job. My dog does not seem to mind going there, and I find the staff to be very helpful. I also saw a trainer working with s dog, she was incredibly gentle. My dog will continue to go there as long as I live in the area.

This is a great place/daycare to bring your pets and they even offer some vaccinations too. Great customer service and very very affordable. I'm a retired veteran so the cost is perfect for me and my family. My dogs looked so happy and comfortable there too when I checked on them.

The owner made time for my daughter and explain his business for our homeschool field trip. It was so clean, and the dogs were so well taken care of. He also helps the Animal Welfare Society here in Yanceyville and takes in dogs when they get full. These people are awesome!

The owner Derek goes above and beyond to explain anything about your pet, suggestions and even other services around town that he may not offer. Their grooming service is awesome and very consistent.

Beverly Hardy has been caring for my dog, Austin, for the past 3 years. I never have to worry when Austin is in her care, as she provides him with tender, loving care, and supervision. Austin is always happy to see Beverly, and has great fun with her. While I am away, Beverly even sends me texts and photos of Austin, to let me know how he is doing. She is very reassuring, and it is such a relief not to have to worry about Austin's well-being. Beverly is a wonderful person and caregiver, and I won't let anyone else care for my baby! Annemarie D'Andrea

Beverly has pet sit for our 2 large dogs and has been great with them. She's very reliable and I can go away knowing everything is taken care of at home and my dogs are in good hands. Truly no worries!

Beverly has pet sit for us on several occasions. First, it was just the dog and now we've added a few cats to the mix. Beverly ensures that "Goldie", the dog is walked daily - and it's a hearty walk too - not just turned out into the yard. She takes various dogs to the Bark Park and they are sometimes returned home with a snazzy new neckerchief or collar as a treat. The cats are always well cared for too - litter boxes scooped, water changed and well fed. When we travel, we sometimes receive a text message from the dog or a photo or two during the trip. It's great to stay connected and know that our pets are received loving and wonderful care from Beverly

Beverly treats my dog like her own. She gets to know each dog and keeps those that like each other together and those that don't separate. She makes adjustments in their living arrangements as necessary to make each dog as comfortable as possible.

Beverly is the only person we trust to care for our dogs. We’ve been using her since long before she opened No Worries. She has never let us down in any way! Would recommend to anyone.

Beverly is wonderful with my cats. She goes above and beyond. I completely trust my kitties with her!

Beverly takes care of all 3 of our dogs, she’s always on time and does an outstanding job with our dogs , they love her , I highly recommend her pet sitting services!!

Attentive care for my dogs!

I highly recommend Canine Cottage Salem if you are looking for daycare, boarding or grooming! We started coming in September and my dog absolutely loves it. He gets his energy out, gets to socialize and has so much fun. The staff is always super friendly and they take great care of him while he is there.

Summer did an amazing job grooming our new puppy, Calli! We were nervous about who to trust and wanted to make sure future grooming weren’t miserable for her/us since this was her first grooming, but we all had an amazing experience! She looked amazing just in time for traveling and Christmas. Booking (especially to be right before the holidays) was so simple and convenient. Calli will definitely be back and we will definitely be recommending Canine Cottage Salem to friends and family.

Maizy has the best time at Canine Cottage in Salem. She is exhausted from playing all day. Such a great way to socialize dogs. The staff is pretty terrific too!!

My dog has been coming here for daycare since the beginning of the year and absolutely loves it. The staff is great and very attentive, we love how they post daily pictures of the dogs playing outside. My dog also sees Summer for grooming and she is amazing too! Highly recommend

Canine Cottage has always been a great place for us to board our Great Dane, but when the new owners took over in 2024 it has improved even more! We felt so comfortable with leaving our pup. They were so accommodating to our dog and us! Our pup is about 140 pounds and can be a handful, but they handled him with ease and made him and us feel very comfortable! You will not be disappointed when using their services.

The new owners are amazing. They go above and beyond to meet each dogs personal needs. I was extremely pleased with Summer who groomed our dog. Upon arriving, the facility is very well kept and clean. We were greeted by the owners who welcomed my hyper boy with a treat and some good belly rubs. We will continue to use Canine Cottage for all of grooming and boarding needs. Highly recommend.

Summer did SOOO GOOD on my dog. I’ve never been happy with his haircuts when he comes back from the groomer and i was so amazed today. She took really good care of him and was really nice! Will definitely be my new spot to take him! Thank you so much!

Rebecca and Corey are two amazing owners. From the moment I walked in, I felt comforted by talking to them about my dogs and previous situations at another facility. After scheduling a trial daycare day, they loved my fur babies as well. I felt totally at ease, leaving my 2 girls for a week, to be boarded in their care. I would highly recommend! 12 out of 10!

This grooming facility is GREAT and Summer English is awesome! She treats the dogs like they're her own. She is FANTASTIC!!!

We took our 8 month old rescued male Shih Tzu for grooming. The staff was kind, and attentive to our concerns with our Eolas. The cut was excellent. I recommend taking your fur babies to Canine Cottage.

I dropped my dog off at 8:05am and by 4:00pm they were just starting on her, heed I made an appointment 3 weeks prior so this was not a walk in or last minute deal. My dog is a labordoodle who needed a summer cut and I wanted her shaved with her ears and tail left and just trimmed. When I got my dog back she was odd shaved and uneven. She has guard lines all through her body. She has nicks and bald spots and her feet were not trimmed, ears were not cleaned and she looks completely terrible like my pure bread dog has the mange. It was so bad I had to sit in my car and cry at the state of my baby. Also want to point out my Dog was brushed every other day and bathed every other week. She’s extremely taken care of and didn’t have any mats or anything and now she looks like a child Attempted to shave her. I’m so disappointed and disgusted at the care of my dog. Leaving her in a kennel for almost 7hrs then sped through the grooming for in less than 30 mins which for my 80lb dog that has rigorous grooming is insane and of course they charged me full price. Anyone who has to get special grooming for your breed please don’t go here. The picture of her with hair is what she looked like prior to these people butchering my poor baby.

Buddy was stress free and looks great! I wish we would have known about Spunky's Spa sooner. We have definitely been through the ringer with others....but no longer! We scheduled his next 6 week grooming right after the first, we are that confident with Spunky's.

I was in the neighborhood for work and I stopped into spunky’s spa. They allowed me to do a walk in and I showed them my shot records for Josie my beagle. They did an amazing job grooming her and giving her a bath. I highly recommended Spunky’s spa!

Both of the dogs pictured here were both clean and dry upon arrival. They stayed there for three days in total. When we picked them up on day four at 11:30am the kennel they were in had pee and poop in it. First off, when we filled out the application we made sure to specify to not board them together because they are baby’s and they are not fixed yet , the suppose to be white one is a boy and the black one is a girl when we picked them they were in the same kennel. We also left specific instructions for the black one it was to not keep her harnesses on her while in the kennel because she will chew it off if unsupervised and when we arrived the harness was bitten in half (as seen in the picture) and soaked in pee … as we’re both the dogs as I stated previously the suppose to be white dog isn’t white he’s yellow mind you they have only Been there for three nights the black one was also soaked in a strong Oder of pee. When we called to ask about why they were covered in pee and poop there response was that they were hard to handle because they were bitting but when we called several times to check in on them we were told they were doing fine no behavioral issues were mentioned, we did try calling at least 10 times throughout the three days they were there but each time no answer when we finally did get an answer we were told everything was fine as I stated before. We also asked why they were together when asked not to be the owner stated that the weekend staff must have not known to put them away separately so obviously information about animals is not being provided to the other workers as it should be which is unprofessional. So far we have been told that the money for the harness will be provided (as it should be).

Tequila just spent 17 days with Crystal and her staff. She was well taken care of. AND extra Pampered from Pedro. I visited a number of times prior to dropping her off and I just felt so welcomed and good vibes from the staff. A huge thank you to all whom loved our lil girl in our absence. So happy 😀 💞 Tequila will be back to visit.

They did a full groom on my dog coco and they dine a great job very friendly and nice place tok good care of her and got her looking cute really like the place and people 🙂 …

Very professional and very nice! Wanda did an amazing job on my baby, she truly loves what she does and treats your pet like her own. Will definitely continue to support spunkys spa!!

This boarder was recommended by our vet. Our beagle, Chloe spent three night there. First time we ever picked her up from a boarder and she was calm. She enjoyed her stay and did not get anxious. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our Chloe dog. We will be back. Very reasonable for per boarding.

If u can’t do big dogs just say that. We spent 75 to have you half ass wash our dog. She didn’t get trimmed like she was supposed to. Also she didn’t get properly demated until we were leaving and we asked you to fix it. It took 6 hours and it wasn’t worth it. Very disappointed.

Picked up our senior boy today after boarding him for 6 days & once again pleased as always! Chrystal & her staff take wonderful care of our old baby, which includes lots of special things ie diet, meds, help etc. wouldn’t leave our baby anywhere else bc he is loved & spoiled there just like he is at home.

Andrea is the best, most animal loving person. I have two cats. One friendly and one is such a mamma’s boy and does not make friends easily. Andrea spent days seeking him out and talking to him. By the end of the week, he was greeting her at the door. Having Andrea take care of my pets gave me great peace of mind to relax and enjoy my vacation. Hire this woman! I can’t say enough good things about her!

So happy we had Andrea come take care of our sweet boy. She was so awesome and very informative. She sent us photos of our pup as well! Definitely recommend her services!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Andrea. She took care of our fur babies so well. She gave them plenty of walks..lots of love and attention. She watered our flowers while we were on our trip. I would recommend her over and over again❤️🐶 …

I would highly like to recommend Andrea’s pet sitting service. Not only is Andrea a close friend, she is now our go to source for caring for our two large dogs and crazy cat. Andrea came to our home several times a day and ensured our pets were fed, exercised, and loved on while we were away.

When I had unexpected arm surgery and needed help walking our very active one year old Labrador, Theo, Andrea came to our rescue! She was highly recommend by a friend and what a lifesaver she has been ! Not only is she professional , prompt, flexible and courteous , Theo ( and we) adore her. When they go out for walks we know he’s getting great exercise , having fun , and Andrea is reinforcing the training he had only recently completed . Truly a win win for our family ! Would highly recommend Andrea !

Andrea met with us to introduce our dog to her home. Her home is well kept and the fenced in backyard was beautiful. Our dog enjoyed her yard and playing with her dogs. Andrea is very down to earth and professional. We look forward to working With her more.

Andrea took care of our beloved dog and cat for 4 days. She took great care of them- sent pictures every day. Would absolutely recommend Andrea !!!

Ozzi loves his walks with Andrea. He always looks so happy!! He is loving the new harness she recommended as well. It is a great peace of mind while away most of the day to know your pup is being loved and is happy!!

I would give her 10 stars if I could, Andrea took care of my Molly while we were out of town during the holidays. We received multiple updates with pictures of how Molly was doing. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that Molly was well taken care of. Andrea will be Molly's care giver from now on as long as we live in Greensboro.

Thanks Justin! I enjoyed getting to know sweet Ellie!
