Professional pet-sitter and nonprofit professional looking to travel more!
Heather was a pleasure to have in my home to care for my two dogs. She was interested in the fine points of their care, food, medicine, sleeping etc, with complete acceptance of their routine. Heather communicated with me daily about her day and her day with the pups, along with adorable photos so I knew what was going on at home. Before leaving, I went over a few household items, such as trash out days, yard clean up after the pups, etc. there was not an issue with following these directions. I travel alot for ski clinics, and there have been prior issues. But not at all with Heather. She was sweet and kind to me and the pups, let me know if there were food issues with the pups, if we were running low, or if one of my pups did not finish his food with medication. Also, Healther took immaculate care of my home. Sheets and towels were washed, kitchen and bathroom were cleaned. I appreciated her level of care, especially arriving home after a long travel day. I was able to come home to a perfect house, along with a thank you note from Heather. Also, Heather left me a de-brief text. Wonderful housesitter!!! I welcome Heather back next ski season....

Experienced, Caring, and Reliable Digital Nomad Couple(25+ Sits)
Lucy and Jordon were great house sitters. They cared for my cat Rigby for 16 nights. He is an outdoor cat so I am always worried when I leave him. We only had one bear visitor who cleaned out the apple tree. They did a great job meeting Rigby's needs and keeping him safe. I am grateful that Lucy and Jordon were the house sitters and I would recommend them to others and use them again

We were so happy to welcome Vanessa back to take care of our 4 cats while we were on a trip with our dog. The cats were thrilled to get the attention. Vanessa gave us reassuring updates and left our house clean but even more importantly, we returned to very contented cats! Vanessa is very welcome to return again in the future!

Married, empty-nest teachers (and dog/cat lovers) seek opportunities to travel.
Marc and Kathryn were awesome sitters for Charlie. They were super attentive and caring, sending photos and checking in. They took care of our home and left it spotless. We’re so grateful to them, and would highly recommend.

Kristi was once again a star-sitter! She kept me posted with photos and I returned home to a happy kitty and spotless house. Kristi is welcome to stay here anytime :)

Missing my soccer-playing Gordon Setter and my mind-reading cat!
Mary is a very experienced sitter and took great care of our 2 somewhat high maintenance Yorkies and our house. We would definitely ask her to sit again

Nana is here to take care of you ❤
Would highly recommend Jan to anyone. It’s clear that she truly loves pets and is very responsible. We felt very comfortable with Jan taking care of things while we were away. We came home to a clean house and a happy pup. She watered our plants during the heatwave and the garden was in great shape too!

Sylvia and Kaitlin were great sitters. Were able to easily get themselves settled in without me there and coordinate with my concierge. They took great care of my boys and left the condo nice and clean.

I was very pleased with my first time having a Zeewoi. She is personable and interesting too. I would have her again.

25 Year Dog Mom, now without my own fur children
Beth was absolutely amazing - from the moment she arrived I knew Gus would be in good hands. Beth offered to arrive a night early in order that she and Gus could get to know each other and he would be comfortable with her once we left. Gus was immediately at ease around Beth and we didn’t worry at all during our trip. Beth even made Gus’s meals extra special with a heart shaped ham garnish (his favorite!) on his food ❤️ The house was spotless when we arrived home - she had washed all of the sheets and towels and re-made the bed for us. Best of all, she left us a little piece of “artwork” that Gus made as a memento - we have it on display in our living room. Thank you Beth!!!

Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home for free at Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, $18/day per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Zeewoi cat sitters for free, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
I highly recommend Bowser for your dog. Our dog went for in home, boot camp and sleep away camp. The in home training was great but we just didn’t have the time we needed to dedicate to it. We enrolled him at boot camp and he came back a brand new dog. Walks are so easy now and I enjoy them. No pulling or barking at cars. When I dropped him off for sleep away camp he was so happy to be back at Bowser’s. It made me feel good that he was going back to a place that he loves and where he is loved.
Bowser’s knows how to train humans to communicate with canines, and are such patient and knowledgeable trainers. They know what the dogs need, and how to train the human to let the dog know what is needed and to recognize what the dog is trying to communicate. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I rescued my Hans in May and he had a lot of fears but is now so calm and happy, the most chill of pups!
Jayara was the best! She made sure we understood how to communicate with our pup, Pallas. I’ve went through quite a few trainers looking for help and I’m so happy to say that I don’t need another one after Jayara. She took incredible care of our doggo both in lessons and in boarding. She was honest with us when it came to what was needed to get the results we want. Before Bowser’s and Jayara I couldn’t take my pup anywhere without her being reactive and ever since her board and train we’ve been going out and she was on her perfect behavior at Page’s opening night in line for 1.5 hours. I absolutely loved my experience and would recommend anyone to Bowser’s. Thank you so much for helping us give Pallas a fulfilling life with many more adventures.
I thought I was a good dog trainer. I’ve had prior dogs that had exceptional behavior. Until last fall when we got the most insane, excitable, stubborn puppy I have ever encountered. He was an absolute nightmare and was turning our house upside down. Upon a recommendation we called Bowser. From the moment Nate stepped in our house we knew we had our answer. Our dog is now obedient, calm, and enjoyable to be around. He is also FINALLY living in harmony with our 2 cats. We also boarded Fritz while we were on vacation. We received many updates and he was returned to us better than he was dropped off. Even though our training is over, Bowser has become part of our family and are still more than willing to help if we have a question. Highly recommend.
Nate, Jodi, and the rest of the bowsers team went above and beyond training our dog, Thor. Please read this and understand you will NEVER find better trainers than Bowsers. My husband and I were worried to spend more money on training because we had tried it with different companies in the area and it NEVER worked. We felt lost and had given up even walking our dog in the neighborhood due to his reactivity but within TEN MINUTES we knew that Bowsers was the real deal. They are SO passionate about their job and can tell they truly love and care for each dog they train and they do it FOR THE DOG! They came out and did a free consultation, 4 at home sessions, a 2 week boot camp, and we will be doing 4 more follow thru sessions. They were very thorough and sent a quote within 1 hr of leaving our evaluation. Our dog came home from his 2 week boot camp healthy, happy, and 100% trained. They gave you thoroughly instruction on how to continue the training and ensure your dog a great life. During his debriefing session there was a moment that I had thor in a heel and I did a quick turn and he followed me 100% and it almost had me in tears because I NEVER thought I would be able to walk my dog in public again. Thor and I have gone to hobby lobby already and he got belly rubs from STRANGERS! Seeing my dog enjoying and LOVING his life again is a beautiful gift…and BOWSERS GAVE US THAT! ❤️
Bowser's Dog Service is an outstanding organization! My 2.5-year-old pitbull, Bear, benefitted greatly from the attention and structure provided during their two-week boot camp. I couldn't be more pleased with the results! They sent me daily pictures and videos of his progress, which warmed my heart. They understand the intricacies of canine communication/body language and are highly skilled at explaining their professional skills to the average dog owner. They made a massive difference in my household. The whole team demonstrated themselves to be experts in their field. A special thanks to Jodi and Jen, Bear's trainers, who treated him with exceptional love and patience. Thank you!
We were really struggling with Leo’s separation anxiety, making it very hard to leave the house and Nate helped us turn it around in our very first session. He is unusually skilled at understanding how dogs think and the skills he taught us have extended well beyond the initial issue that we went to him for. I recommend Bowser’s for anyone committed to growing their relationship with their dog!
Bowser is fantastic. They are super responsive and so friendly. I was so worried about sending my dog away for 2 weeks but he had so much fun, I got daily updates and he came back so well behaved. It was worth every penny!!! Jodi was so kind and patient with us. I cannot say enough amazing things!
I took my dog in for the 2 week bootcamp and what a difference it made in my dogs behavior. My dog came back completely different would highly recommend. Nate and his crew do an excellent job. Its definitely difficult being away from your dog for two weeks but I receiving daily updates to see kali’s progress and it made me feel much more comfortable.
I cannot recommend Bowser’s more! Jodi and Nate helped our pup Kiska so much - they are very sweet with our girl and so patient with us. While Kiska was at their bootcamp, Jodi would regularly send us video updates and information regarding her training. They even came to visit us at our home In Philly in order to finish up some training we weren’t able to do at their kennels. Jodi has continued to be very responsive if we have questions or updates on how Kiska is doing at home. Thank you so much, Jodi and Nate!!
Rachelle was so fantastic with my crew! One of my dogs is very distrusting of strangers and can take a while to warm up to new people. Rachelle was very patient and willing to come over multiple times prior to our trip so that Charlie could get comfortable with her. All 3 of my dogs loved her! She was patient and gentle with them, even when two of them found a skunk and ended up getting sprayed while we were away. She was very apologetic and willing to put in the extra work to bathe and de-skunk them, and kept me updated throughout the whole process of it. I definitely recommend Rachelle and Doggone Awesome Pet Services!
I couldn’t be happier with the service provided by Doggone Awesome Pet Services! They take great care of my dogs as if they were their own. It is clear that the staff truly love animals. My dogs are always calm and content when I return home, which says a lot about the level of care they received. The daily updates and photos are a nice touch, giving me peace of mind while I am away. They make sure the kids get plenty of exercise, attention, and even some extra cuddles. I am completely comfortable leaving my pets in their hands. I highly recommend Doggone Awesome Pet Services to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. They always go above and beyond to ensure my pets are happy, healthy, and loved which is why we’ve used their services for five years now!
We have used Rachelle and her team for four years now, and we have so happy with them! We have two chickens and two dogs, and even our shy fur-baby loves his Aunt Rachelle time. It really makes the world of difference knowing my puppers and chickies are in good hands, and I am so grateful for incredible service!
Rachel and Dennis have always been amazing with our fur kids - they treat them as their own pets with love and attention. We have done overnight visits for over 3 years now and I always feel comfortable with them in our house. Our dog can be a little difficult but he loves them!
I can’t say enough good things about Doggone Awesome Pet Services! Rachelle, Dennis, Dani and the whole team are PHENOMENAL!!! I have been a client of theirs since early 2022 and used them extensively. It is such a blessing to have found Rachelle and Doggone Awesome Pet Services. In the over 30 years that I have been a dog and cat owner, it was such a relief to finally have found a pet sitting service as good as Doggone Awesome Pet Sitters. Rachelle Pape and her team are so loving and dedicated to the animals in their care. No one can compare to them. The list of things that make them great is long! They send an update with photos after each visit – multiple times a day! We can enjoy our vacation so much better seeing these frequent updates. And even for “daycare” if they walk the dogs twice in a day when I am at work, they send pics of all of my pets each visit. The communication is fantastic! Rachelle and her team are so responsive. They use a website for reservations which works out so well. And the email communication through the website is also perfect. I usually use them once a week for “daycare” purposes and I have also used them many times for extended vacation weeks. I have them stay overnight when I am on vacation. I trust them completely!! When I first found Doggone Awesome Pet Services in early 2022, I needed someone to give my diabetic cat an insulin shot twice a day. Cats are inherently shy and distrusting of strangers, but Rachelle was able to give Punky a shot twice a day, every day that we were gone!! Recently, I started fostering a dog (in addition to my own dog), and Rachelle and her sister both jumped in right away to come spend some time with the new dog and assess his behavior so that when I needed the once a week visit there would be no issues. I have recommended Doggone Awesome to a couple of my neighbors who are also thrilled with the service. Rachelle typically does a meet and great with each new client free of charge. I will continue to recommend Doggone Awesome Pet Sitters to people and I will be a client for life!
Doggone Awesome Pet Services is amazing! They do in-home care for my husband's small terrier dog when we go on trips and they are also very quick to respond to emergency situations. They also send picture updates and communicate timely. We are very happy with our service from here.
I can't thank Rachelle and her Doggone team enough! We went away for 6 days and left our 5 dogs and 1 cat in their care. It was such a sigh of relief to have found such caring people to take care of our fur babies. We got daily updates and pictures, which helped the anxiety of being away from them for so long. Our family definitely recommends Doggone Awesome. True professionals! Thanks Rachelle, Dennis, Dani and Paige!
Rachelle and her Doggone Amazing Team is always there helping my big fur baby crew for trips away. My kitties and dogs love them!!! Such great service through many years! Thanks from Angela and Diane and the fur kids!!!
Fantastic Service. Rachel and Bob have been so friendly and kind. Bob treats our animals like his own. We know that our dog Charlie is always taken care of. The computer scheduling system they use is top notch. It is so easy to add or cancel a dog visit. They are able to do vacations too. We don't know what we would do without them. We work a lot and would never leave our dog unattended too long. I would HIGHLY recommend Doggone Awesome Pet Services!
They are so great with my pets! I like the overnight visits and they always provide pictures and let me know how all of the pets are doing. Recommend them to everyone I know looking for a reliable pet service.
Excellent service! You can tell they enjoy what they do. We have been taking our dogs there for years, and they know them by name. Our dogs are always very excited to stay at Patty's. When we bring them home, they are clean and happy pups.
Very nice boarding place. Very reasonable pricing. Will definitely use again in the future!
Boarded our 2 year old male cat for 5 days. Cat area was extremely nice. Clean, bright and spacious. It was also isolated from dogs so cats didn't have to deal with that. Owner and staff very nice and very accommodating. Would definitely use them again.
Only place we take the pets. Don't let the cost fool you. Just because they affordable does not mean not reliable or inanetive. Always accommodating. Will keep you updated if needed. Super friendly. They even greet you as you enter the parking lot. Clould not recommend enough. Wish I could give more stars... Thank you Patty's!!!
Very satisfied with the care they gave my dogs and cat. Clean, air conditioned and they walk the dogs several times a day. My dogs seem very content there. I have used them for several years now and never disappointed.
They took very good care of our dog. It really seemed that they took the time to get to know her so they could better care for her. Facility is nice and secure. I would not hesitate to board our dog there again!
First time at Patti's for our 11 year old dog. Very very pleased!! They took extra good care of Tango. We will certainly use Patti's again. Thank you Tina and Hannah and all staff members.
We use Patti's at least twice a year for our two furballs. They absolutely love it there! Whenever we get close they start getting so excited, you'd think they were going to the dog park! They are nothing but professional and every time we leave our pups there we know they are being well taken care of!
Boarded my 13-pound Chihuahua mix here for a week. Normally she hates the kennel but when I picked her up she was very energetic. I like that they make sure the dog actually eats their food during their stays because at other kennels my dog would hardly eat for the entire stay; when I picked up my dog almost all her food was eaten. It is also nice that they separate little and big dogs for play time because my dog is terrified of larger dogs. The price is very reasonable as well.
Haven’t gone back here for years, ever since they apparently abused our boxer. When we went to pick her up, instead of happiness she was cowering in fear. We boarded her for a week, called mid-week to check on things and they told us “you can never bring her back here.” That comment totally RUINED the remainder of our vacation! Too many other amazing kennels in the area, don’t waste your time, money and possibly risk the well-being of your pet going to this place!
Best doggy daycare! My dog loves it and all the staff are amazing. It really shows by how excited she gets when she arrives and / or sees staff.
We love Walker’s Pet Hotail! Our Charlie is loving but sometimes particular and Walkers welcomes him with open arms. He has been to daycare and boarded and has always left happy and TIRED. Its very clean, no smells, and the receptionist is always so pleasant. I do make phone calls and check on him when boarded and they are always willing to give a quick update. The play areas have indoor and outdoor spaces with 3 separate play areas depending on size and personality. They also have small play areas and walking paths for the pups who enjoy their alone time. Ive never boarded a cat however their homes appear comfy, clean, and a lot of window space for the cats to peer out. Go in for a tour and see for yourself!
Great facility, top notch employees and training. Diane is the best and will make sure you and your pets have the best experience
We’ve been here for the puppy parties and to bathe our pups at their self washing stations. The staff is very friendly & caring about the animals.
My dog goes to daycare here 4 times a week. Staff is really good and the Facility’s management and ownership are second to none.
So my girl KY is a rescue Chihuahua Beagle mix but has had trauma so she is very skiddish. Sam(or Steve im bad with names) and the rest of the staff took great care of my sweet girl. And Q(?) who brought her in. My girl knows and can read character. So when I watched her go with him and not growl, bark, or show any apprehension or fear. I know shw was oing to be fine. But she was more than fine. She was great and i was great because i could leave her there without worry while i was on a difficult trip. The staff went above and beyond to take care of my sweetheat and get her ready for our trip in a few weeks. Truly amazing and I was blown away. In a world were often money is paid to a business and the business does not take customer's needs into account, my experience with Walker's Pet Hotel was a Breath of Fresh Air. And I have been using walker's pethotail for years but at the Murrysville location on and off for the last 18 years with prevous girl Duchess. Thank you all for the consistent great service and care with my boarding and vet needs to carefor my fur babies Japhia and KY, Duchess (LoveBird)1.1.04-8.24.18
Feels like we’re leaving our dog with family. The staff there is loving and attentive to every dog and cat that comes in, whether for daycare or for an extended stay. Our dog loves it there. She’s very well cared for and is excited every day to go. And when we pick her up after work, she is tired and happy from the social experience.
Really great place.... Clean store front.... Inside of building is very well kept and clean.... Great location on route 30 centralized in North Versailles.... My dog loves going there and playing with all the other dogs and getting some of her energy out..... 2 year old St Bernard that still thinks she's a little lap dog puppy.... Lol
We love walkers in north Versailles! My girl gets excited every time we walk in and she sees the staff. She always looks happy when I pick her up and she sleeps so well after playing hard. Prices are good in my opinion, and they’ve always been able to accommodate scheduling requests for us.
booking was very easy, they actually tried to help me find a local vet when i wasn’t sure i’d be able to get shots in time. they took my last minute boarding request for a holiday weekend, check in was super quick and painless, and on pickup their review of my dogs stay was way more detailed and thorough than i expected. i was worried about finding a place for my senior girl but we’ll definitely go back here!
When we started to plan a trip to Italy, I couldn’t get too excited until I knew who would watch our dogs. Our regular sitter could only cover the first several nights, so I had to find someone to cover the rest of the trip. I looked for hours to find someone who meets our high standards and could stay at our home, especially since we would be an ocean away. Once we did a meet and greet with Gabby I knew she would be perfect. Our dogs loved her and she sent us tons of photos, videos and updates. There is no doubt these pups had constant love and attention. I never had to worry about them which allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. When we came home they were calm and healthy. I would not be able to say that if we left them at a kennel. We feel like we made a new friend and am so happy to know I can trust her with our kids. Our home was clean and all secure when we returned, what a great experience. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Salute!
I don't even know where to begin. Let's just say I have two high maintenance dogs, one being elderly and one being a Jack Russell (enough said on that one!) I always struggle to relax when I am away, because the older dog has separation anxiety, and at nearly fifteen years old, I know her days are numbered. It is hard for me to have peace of mind not being able to be the main caretaker of her. Then I found Gabby. I have never had a vacation where I was able to relax and not be worried about how everything was going at home. Gabby went above and beyond, even with the crazy medication and supplement schedule I have the senior gal on, and the demanding nature of a high drive breed. She sent updates and pictures every single day. I did not have to wonder what was happening or how everything was going. I honestly could write pages about how amazing our experience with Gabby was, but let's just say this.. BOOK HER NOW. I'm already looking for dates for vacation next year so I can be sure to have her in advance. Could not have asked for anything more from her at all. If I could give an infinite amount of stars, I would!!
I have 2 tiny dogs that have super sensitive stomachs and eat 4 times a day. I had to travel out of state for almost a week and was extremely preoccupied about leaving my 2 little ones. I found Melrose pet resort, and let me tell you that Gabby is the most amazing, comprehensive, and pet lover dog sitter you could found. She took care of my babies like they were hers, she went above and beyond to accommodate them so they could be separated from bigger dogs, as I asked, they could have their meals at their regular schedule and she also kept updating me constantly with videos and pictures of my little ones. They had such a great time with her, got to make a few little friends that were staying at her place, and even participated in a Christmas photoshoot!. She gave me piece of mind while on my trip, and I definitely will be using her services next time I travel.
I cannot recommend Gabby and Melrose Pet Resort enough! As a bulldog owner I’m always looking for the best care possible since our boy tends to need a little extra attention, and we absolutely found it with Gabby. She followed our directions to a “T”, and went above and beyond. She also sent us videos and updates throughout our vacation, putting my mind at ease about how our boy was doing. She also took great care of our home while we were away. Gabby is the best and we can’t wait to plan our next vacation and get on her schedule!
Gabby’s attention to detail is on another level. She did an amazing job with our dog, Remi. He is a creature of habit, and his transition from us being out of town to Gabby staying with him and taking care of his routine was seamless. She thinks of everything to ease your mind of what is going on. Her love for animals is apparent, and I appreciate that so much. Remi has specific medications that have to be taken, and I was not worried about Gabby covering everything perfectly. All the wonderful pictures she sent was a bonus, she should consider being a pet photographer! Thank you so much for taking care of our spoiled boy, Remi!
I cannot rave about how great Gabby and Kris were with my dog! Being a sitter myself I know I can trust them with my anxious little boy going forward. I have never left my dog with anyone but my family before and him being an older and anxious dog I was not sure how he’d do. But almost immediately Gabby and Kris made him feel so comfortable and right at home. He received all the attention and affection he needed and I also received all the updates and pictures I needed to know he was doing great. Knowing how well he was taken care of now makes me wonder why I was even worried about him to begin with! After this stay at Melrose Pet Resort I can now look forward to my upcoming trips and enjoy them worry free 🤩🥰
If you want your fur family cared for in the most transparent and considerate way, book with Melrose Pet Resort! Gabby was prompt, communicative, and attentive. During our 9 day vacation we were nervous to leave our shy cat alone since this would be the longest time away. We expressed this to Gabby, who reassured us before and during our trip. She listened as we oriented her to our home and pet. She sent so many lovely pictures and videos while we were away to reassure us our pandemic pet was doing well. Upon our return she checked in inquired about feedback! LGBTQIA++ family friendly pet sitter.
Talk about an AMAZING dog sitter and person, Melrose Pet Resort is a far better pet sitter that I ever came across. I came from out of state, and we were recommended to Melrose Pet Resort while we look for a home. Contacted her and immediately got a quick response. I never in my life have as much interaction with her as other dog sitters in the past. I have a Deaf dog and one with diet needs... Gabby constantly send photo's and video's of there activities, and I could see how happy my fur babies were. She is very personal and active with my pets and I am excited to have her again and as well as Chico and Bella. I am glad I am moving to Florida knowing when I need Gabby again, I will never have to worry about my fur babies again, knowing they will be in great care.... WOOF WOOF APPROVED
Hands-down, the best pet sitter I've ever had the honor to work with. It was like leaving the dogs with a family friend. If I even had the slightest worry about them or their care, it vanished in the rain of delightful photos and videos and the constant updates about breakfast, dinner, lizard hunts and games of Ball. It is just possible that my dogs had a better time than I did while I was on vacation. They stayed in their very own room, in crates for everyone's safety, but were out and about quite a lot of the time (certainly WAY more than they would be in a kennel or daycare) and they were treated like family. They got to "help" make dinner and cuddle on the sofa and watch TV. Obi even got to chase MANY BALLS AT THE SAME TIME. Heaven! Obi and Ursa can't wait to stay with Aunt Gabby again!
We recently put our baby Jasmine here after searching for a boarding facility for weeks. And I can't say how happy we are that we decided to choose Melrose Pet Center opposed to one of those facilities. Not only did she get personalized care, she got love and affection the entire time. We know so because Gabby sent us updates daily; mornings, afternoons when she could, and night. She sent Pictures and videos and Jasmine looked like she was having the time of her life. I also loved the cute bandanas she had while we got the pictures. We were even lucky enough to get a pic of Jas with Santa in their home (Thanks Kris!! Lol). Jasmine also enjoyed playing with her dogs, tiring them out all day! If we could give more than 5 stars, we absolutely would! Thank you again for treating our pup like she was one of your own!
I took my two golden retriever puppies both 1 years old to get groomed. When I went to pick them up the owner I believed approached me. Saying how horrible my one was. How she needed serious training and socialization. I was shocked and so upset. We taken both to training(paid a lot of money for) They both passed with flying colors. We take them everywhere with us! The one who was “so terrible” took trips to nursing homes. I was so upset I contacted my trainer and he recommend maybe first trying a new groomer. So we did… the new groomer said they were both amazing and she couldn’t believe they would say that…… so we just left it alone. BUT then we started daycare and the staff commented on how well behaved they are and how well they listen.. They couldn’t believe that the groomer said that as well…. So I think the problem is not my dog… its the place. I seen multiple reviews like this. So I needed to tell my experience. I’m glad I had this experience because I would have never found the amazing groomer and daycare I have now! I 100% don’t recommended based off my experience. Pic below of the “horrible one that needs training”at a nursing home
I had her groomed Wednesday when I brought her home. She didn’t smell like like she had a bath. I called the owner and was very nice and she said if you’re not happy, don’t come back and she hung up on me.
The only place I take my German shepherd for grooming! Ava’s been going to Carwen’s since she was a puppy and they’ve always been willing to work with us on her separation anxiety. She cries the whole time and cannot use the dryers, but the groomers have always taken extra care to make sure she’s comfortable even if it takes extra time to groom her. She always comes home a happy and clean pup. I’ll always recommend Carwen’s!
Worst grooming experience my dogs have ever had. She shaved my Maltese down to nothing and chopped off the hair on their ears. I didn’t even recognize my one when I picked them up. I definitely would not refer them
Our Airedale terrier was groomed there on May 6, 2022. When we picked him up the groomer stated he was growling at her so she muzzled him. Therefore she couldn’t do his face. We were surprised because no one has ever told us this before. Everyone always says how loving he is and gives tons of kisses during grooming. She also stated she at least got to do his nails which was a false statement due to the fact we just had them done at the vet the May 4, the Wednesday prior to his grooming appointment. Once we got Charlie home he was licking like crazy under his belly and all around his privates. Finally my husband and I looked, to our shock it was all open sores which looked like burns. After him licking all evening and into the morning with no relief we took him back to our vet. East suburban animal hospital. They stated that he not only had an infection due to dirty clippers he also had burns probably due to the fact the shears were over heated or hot. He was put on meds for both. No wonder he was growling when they were cutting him. Sad they would allow that to happen to an animal. Obviously he was letting them know they were hurting him. It is exactly a month later to the day, he is healing however he is scared from the burns around his belly and privates. I tell everyone how our dog was treated during grooming not to mention lying regarding trimming his nails. Here is the best picture as of today a month later. He still will not let us touch him there at all. Still using ointment on him. Never ever would I take Charlie there again!
Boarding situation not great (dark basement like area with concrete floors etc) We stopped grooming there as well because everytime we went it was “oh we found a flea on the dogs, but we got it off for you.” Every. Single. Appointment. And we never had fleas ever in our home or on the dogs. Try somewhere more sanitary first.
I am so glad I brought my dog here. My parents dropped him off and there was a little confusion but the women working were so understanding. They cut my dogs hair exactly the way I hoped they would after we spoke. He was so soft and smelled so good. I can’t recommend this place enough, especially if you have a dog that may need a little more attention and special care like mine (he has hip problems and can sometimes be very protective of it).
I was EXTREMELY pleased by how well our puppy was treated! And their pricing is outstanding!! I will continue to return there for my fur baby every time I need boarding! I would recommend this place to every dog owner around! Thank you for treating my pooch so well!! Oh, almost forgot, they also have plenty of room to play, big fenced in yard! So happy that I found this place!
Carwens is not BBB accredited for grooming, they are also under new management— my dog has been groomed there in the past with no problems, I was not told they were under new management or that prices also jumped. My dog was severely burned by the groomers shears. his private areas are still unhealed and it’s been almost a month after. Had to take him to the vet and get antibiotics for the infection this had caused. My dog is trained, and the groomer said they had to mussel him due to him getting “mean” and to find out it was because they were hurting him is infuriating.. he has scarring and is still in pain due to their uncleanliness and negligence. NEVER TAKE YOUR PETS HERE!
We love Carwens! Thank you for always taking care of our girls!
I've been taking my pup here for the last 2 years and he us always so happy to see Allie and Jody. Just got a new puppy and the girls welcomed her with open arms as well. I have absolute peace of mind that my dogs are extremely well taken care of while at PPS.
We would not take our dogs anywhere else. The attention, care, professional knowledge, combined with flexibility and reasonable prices are unmatched in the Pittsburgh area. We use PPS for boarding and daycare. Most importantly, our dogs LOVE it there. We recently had 2 health scares and needed immediate boarding. With one text PPS had us covered and our dogs transitioned from daycare to boarding without missing a beat. No one better in the Burgh.
Allie and her team are awesome! We brought our 5 year old male cat for boarding and grooming a few weeks ago and everything was wonderful! Allie treats her fur kiddo customers like her own :-) So does Jodi! The groomer Justine is fabulous!! She’s been grooming my fur kiddos for years, super trustworthy and listens to your grooming needs. Never disappoints!
I took my pup Riley to be groomed by Justine, I am very pleased with how he was groomed. Justine listened to how I wanted him done. He looks so handsome. Thank you.
We boarded our German Shepherd over the weekend for the first time. The owners were very kind and accommodating and took great care of our girl! I like that they posted pictures and videos on their Facebook page so I could see how she was doing. She looked happy and content! We also had her groomed before we picked her up. Their groomer did a fantastic job and it was more affordable and better quality work than Petsmart where we usually have her groomed. Overall great experience and we will definitely use them again!
Allie came to my home and trimmed my cat's nails. She made an appointment to come over last week but never showed up. Never called or text or answered my calls. Very poor way to do business. I don't trust these people at all
We had utilized pet waste removal services. They were super disorganized and really poor communicators. They used to bill monthly, but then we stopped getting billed. They were continuing to show up to remove the dog poop though. I reached out multiple times with no response via both text and facebook messenger (left on read). Then we got a bill for FIVE MONTHS at once, which we immediately paid. When I asked about when billing would be (monthly, quarterly, every 6 months, etc.) they never responded. About six months later, they just stopped showing up, not notice. They would occasionally not show up a week (and usually when I reached out they'd eventually get back to me that they were behind a day or would be out the following week), so we weren't initially concerned. Turns out they decided to stop servicing our area with no notification, as I saw someone else complaining about being dropped with no notice, too. Took me 3 tries to finally get a response from the owner, Allison. We got set up with Poop911 (who have been doing consistent weekly billing and very reliable) and just moved on. Don't you know, in January, we got a bill from Pittsburgh Pet for services they did FIVE MONTHS prior, in AUGUST. With as inconsistent as they were and such poor communicators, I would not trust them to care for my dog. We were initially interested in daycare for our active pup & talked to Matt about it, but when we realized how poorly they communicated and the inconsistencies with billing, there's no way I'd trust them with the care of my pups.
The owners here are responsible and caring for animals, that's the best thing you can find in a local boarding place. They've taken great care of my dog, even though he kinda aggressive towards strangers, they didn't hesitate a bit. It's made it so we can still take trips without having to worry about our boy. I would definitely recommend checking them out for boarding and daycare.
Wow this place is incredible! We took our 3 pups here today for the first time and we were hands down blown away! The pups had a great spa day and we are happy customers! Can't wait to go back and see the friendly staff! Thank you for amazing services! Barks of approval from Haus, Gus, and Pierogie!
Allie and Jodi are absolutely thee best people in this world. Our fur babies are always taken care of. we recommend them to everyone!
I took my Golden doodle for a nail trim. The groomer is always great with our dogs and even welcomes us to accompany our nervous boys too. Their nails grow quite fast, so I wish the price was a bit less. She does do a great job though.
We brought our dog here for day care and boarding. He had so much fun that he didn’t want to leave. The staff is very sweet and even answered my daily phone calls to check in on him. I will never take him anywhere else! He had so much fun playing with the other puppies too.
I took my LéLu for first time to this place and very impressed. It is convenient to get to versus my last groomers location..I was very happy with her cut but was alittle taken back with the deposit you have to put down to set appointment. I NEVER had to do that with any other place but it is not a deal breaker because of the results of how well LéLu is treated and at least that deposit is also used towards the total price which is alittle higher than previous groomers I went to. They even put a cute little bow on her. No other place has ever done that. I will be happy to using them again.
I took my Nike to be groomed today. Carrie was amazing, making me and Nike feel very comfortable. When I picked him up he looked like a little teddy bear…perfect!
I had my dog groomed recently at Walkers. The groomer's name is Maddie. I am so happy about her cut. Suni has never looked this good. Thank you Maddie for a great job. We will be back. Fantastic work. See you soon.
Our dog Piper had a great two days at Walkers! She was exhausted when she came home from all the fun she had. It’s so nice to know she was being cared for by professionals and had a lot of play time while she was there. We will definitely use them again.
Been getting my boys taken care of for about 2 years and Crystal does an amazing job! Everyone that I have encountered has been so very nice and kind! Couldn't recommend them enough!
My boy Dozer loves going to daycare once or twice a week. It gives him a chance to run off some energy and socialize with other dogs. I have used all their services, daycare, boarding and grooming. I’m very pleased with them all.
Great daycare! They take excellent care of my dog and I do trust them with my pups care. They have excellent customer service and their obedience classes are great too!
They took great care of our dog while we were out of town. The staff is very friendly and cared about our pet. We have also used their grooming services and have found them really reasonable.
