Young couple excited to meet your pets while traveling and working remotely!
This was our second house sit with Hannah and David. As was the case last time, we came home to such a happy, exercised, fit and well-loved Riley. Riley couldn’t decide who to go to next for pets and loves between the four of us. The house was spotless and even with an early morning flight the morning after our return, the beds were stripped and the trash was taken out. Riley got to go places with David and Hannah. They took her to Bark at the Park, they took her to early dinners at outdoor restaurants and they took her on new hikes. There was plenty of cuddle time and we received photos that kept us up to date on their adventures and quiet time. Honestly, we didn’t need to check in but felt totally comfortable with Riley’s care (free to be on vacation) during our three week trip abroad. As many of you will know, who have fur babies that they adore, this is saying something!! Thanks David and Hannah!! We welcome you back any time!!

Let this mature, responsible woman help to care for your priceless pets and home
Lori was absolutely amazing. She was so responsive and gave us updates on our furry princess every couple of days. When we returned home, the house was spotless (truthfully better than we left it!). Lori took care of our plants (during a mini heat-wave) and everything looked amazing when we got home. Our princess Artemis was happy, relaxed and content when we got home. We know that she was very well cared for and cuddled by Lori. We would not hesitate for a moment to have Lori sit with us again. Thank you Lori!

Adventurous, clean, remote-working couple looking to care for your furry friends
Prashant and India were so lovely to work with, they even came to town the night before my trip to make sure the pups would be comfortable with them. Prashant helped with training my younger dog and they gave me some great recommendations. They also took excellent care of my apartment and are the sweetest people. Would love to have them again any time.

Your Pets Are in Good Paws
We have just returned from a 9 night trip and left our pup Chester in Meghan's very capable hands. Communication in advance of the sit was always replied to quickly and she messaged me regularly on her arrival day to keep me updated on her journey. On arrival Chester and I both warmed to her immediately and she made a big fuss of him, which he loved. I showed her the house and a quick tour of our local area and had full confidence that both Chester and our home were in good hands. Throughout our trip Meghan sent us updates and photos which were lovely to see and on our return, our house was immaculate and she had even left both us and Chester a small gift which was so kind of her. We would welcome Meghan back any time, and in fact have already asked if she would like to come back for our next holiday! :)

Looking to make new furry friends
We couldn’t have asked for better cat sitters for our two kitties. They took great care of our house and our pets, and they were communicative and tidy. We’d have them back any time — and we’d highly recommend them!

Fun, sweet family, wants to love on your pets!
Jennifer and her family were amazing. They cared wonderfully for both the house as well as my two cats and big dog. Jennifer was so sweet to update me every day or two to keep me me know how things were going. The house was very clean and felt great when I returned. I would have them back in a heartbeat.

Professional Archaeologist and Future Engineer!
Emily took great care of our parrots for an entire month. She sent us updates and videos regularly and left the house super clean. Her dog stayed too, and we all learned he doesn’t like thunder storms when he did some anxiety chewing. Emily immediately let us know and offered to pay for the damaged shoe. Things happen, right? I highly recommend Emily as a sitter!

Reliable housesitters hoping to love your pet for the summer :)
Enogie and her friend Allison were a delight to have watch Sawyer and Finn. Great communication and I had no worries even when I was out of cell service the whole weekend. They left the house basically cleaner than before, washed sheets and towels and remade bed. Was a very nice gesture to come home to.

Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Chris was an outstanding pet sitter and I would definitely use him again! He is reliable, responsible, and thorough. I was able to FaceTime Chris prior to the sit and he spent a lot of time answering and asking questions. I felt confident after speaking with him. Throughout the weekend, Chris communicated clearly through texting. He let me know when he arrived and left which was helpful. He also sent photos and updates of both my cats. My boy cat has occasional anxiety issues which cause UTI's. Andy had a flare up while I was away and Chris was very attentive to him and let me know how he was doing. Chris did not seem to mind taking extra care of him which I very much appreciate. Chris left my house clean and even washed the sheets and towels he used before leaving!
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.
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, $21/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've used Happy Hounds twice a week for the last several months and had my Boomer stay with Holly for a week. I'd give them 10 stars if I could! Very dependable & very loving! Never worry about a no-show or that my baby wouldn't be well cared for plus Boomer loves them! Highly recommend!!
I just moved to the Charlotte area and had to go out of town for a wedding. I contacted Happy Hounds regarding a meet and greet. From the first message, Holly was amazing. She was very prompt in responding and took the time to meet with us to see if home-style boarding would work. The online portal made it very easy to schedule, communicate and pay for the services. When I picked up my dog, he was very happy and I could tell he had the best time :) Huge peace of mind knowing that my dog is in great hands! All around a wonderful, stress-free experience. I highly recommend Happy Hounds!
What an amazing discovery finding Happy Hounds has been! Such a relief to find an alternative to boarding and kennels. Holly with the Happy Hounds team is amazing and will leave you with such peace of mind knowing your pet is safe (and happy). They sends text updates and pictures of your pets, which is such a great treat! From the initial consultation with Happy Hounds, I knew this was going to be a perfect fit! I have recommended them to all of my friends and will continue using them in the future. Thank you for bringing such an amazing service to Charlotte!!
Happy Hounds is the best boarding option for me in the Charlotte area! I have been in-home boarding with Holly for several years. I could not recommend Happy Hounds highly enough. Your dogs are treated like family, and the communication is wonderful; I always am reassured and reminded that my senior dog is having fun and being an angel. I will be using them for dog walks in the future, too!
We had a wonderful experience with this service! We left our dog with Holly during a week-long trip out of town. He normally has some anxiety issues so boarding him was not an option for us. For the same price we were able to leave him with a passionate, caring dog lover in a home-like environment who treated him like family. We got lots of reassuring photos and updates while we were gone and Brownie was very happy! We will definitely use Happy Hounds again and again!
Happy Hounds is amazing! Happy Hounds is the first pet sitting we’ve used and they completely exceeded our expectations. One of our dogs is blind and Holly was super comfortable with her. When we came to pick our dogs up, they were happy to see us but not happy to leave! Highly recommend!
Absolutely love this service! We got an 8 week old puppy which we were completely unprepared for in regards to potty training and needing multiple walks per day. Needless to say when Monday morning came around I panicked. Holly was so accommodating on such short notice. She came over to meet my baby free of charge and was able to give me multiple options for us to choose from in order to best meet our needs. Our little one requires 2 and sometimes 3 walks per day, our schedule may very week to week and this has been no problem at all for a very reasonable price. Our puppy is always calm (as a puppy can be) and happy when we get home. Holly pays such great attention to our baby and has been great in reinforcing all of her training needs. I get wonderful text messages and pictures that help reassure me that she is doing well and she always looks so excited to be out with Holly. Happy Hounds is a caring attentive service for your pets needs and is extremely reliable and affordable .
Happy Hounds is the BEST. Holly cares for my dog 4 times a week while I am at work. This has been so helpful for me because not only does Holly walk her and let her out, she is also super flexible and caring. She can give my dog treats and chew toys that I only want her to have for half the day, leave her in or out of her crate, etc. Holly sends me a status update and picture every day, which I love getting! She's also really been there for us in a pinch when I unexpectedly need a last-minute walk and has even cleaned up puppy accidents a couple of times... My dog also home boarded with Holly over a long weekend. She was so well-cared for and it was so easy for me because Holly picked her up and dropped her off for me. The prices are also the cheapest I have seen in Charlotte. I didn't think I would be able to afford a dog walker but Happy Hounds has been tremendously valuable to me (and cheap)!
I've used a few different pet-sitting services over the years and Happy Hounds is by far the best! Holly is amazing. Not only does she take excellent care of my dog, but she's respectful of my home as well. She brings in the mail and trash bins; knows how to work my alarm system; will turn lights on and off and will even spend the night when I have to go out of town for work. She is responsive to new sitting requests and always sends an update (and picture!) via text when she's at my house. Best of all, she loves what she does and it shows! Her human clients and her pet clients love her equally as well!
Happy Hounds is the best! Holly and Mike alleviate our worries when we are out of town. Our sweet girl is 15 years old and has special senior needs. They understand and take extra care to make sure she is happy, comfortable and taken care of. Love the pictures we get with the status texts!
My two rescued Jack Russell mixes have rarely been away from home. When I needed boarding for them in Charlotte over Christmas, Joanna came highly recommended, and I completely agree. My dogs did very well with her. Joanna sent text updates and many pictures / video during the time she had my dogs in her care. When my family asked for me to stay longer, Joanna was quick to reply that she could keep them longer. After the initial worry when they left my care to when the first photos of Sophie and Jack came back to me, I saw there was no need to worry. It was easy to see that they would be very well taken care of. I will bring my dogs back to Joanna in the future without any worry in the future. Stephen Moore
Joanna was absolutely AMAZING caring for my cat while on a week long trip. My cat can be needy and annoying at times, but she loved him, and care for him like one of her own. This was my first time leaving my cat to be taken care of by someone i didn't really know, so i was hesitant, but after meeting her i felt so comfortable. She is super reliable and responsive, and will give you plenty of status updates if you want! I truly feel like she cared about my cat, and it let me enjoy my vacation. I cant recommend her enough!
I have a 14 year old standard poodle (Barkley) a sweet & gentle guy but one that needs extra care. Joanna took time to have an intro session with me & my pooch so I could go over medications, feeding & walking routine, etc. While I was gone she stayed in constant contact (video & text) to assure me that my dog was doing well and eating (he’s a very picky eater these days). I’ve since called upon Joanna every time I’m forced to travel, and it means a great deal to me that I can have peace of mind - knowing Barkley is in good hands - while I’m away from home.
I was very nervous leaving my animals for the 1st time in a very long while; we have 11 cats & a rambunctious dog. Joanna did a fabulous job in calming them & me. She was very professional & really went the extra mile to insure that my husband & I had no worries while hundreds of miles from home. We would recommend her to anyone with no reservations . N. Edge
Joan is so responsive and easy to work with! I was able to book her last minute to help out with feeding my cat and giving her some love and pets while I was gone for the weekend. My cat can be picky with who she likes and doesn’t, but she loves Joan and I know she is well taken care of when I can’t be at home. I would recommend Joan to anyone looking for a trustworthy, sweet, and reliable pet sitter!
After a very hectic and stressful night of being rushed and admitted to the hospital I was faced with the challenge of not being able to properly take care of my service dog Lucy. I am very picky who handles her and whatnot. I found and called Miss Joanne from google. Immediately I felt at ease with her, and she ran straight over to take care of her. She has been awesome Everytime she comes to take Lucy out and feed her. My Lucy loves her and if you ask me the feeling is mutual. She is very reasonable priced, and very respectful. She has gone above the call of duty more times than can be counted. I highly recommend using her service!!
Joanna takes extra special care of my dog and is always sending text updates while I’m gone. Would highly recommend!
I highly recommend Pet Suites to anyone! They really take good care of your dogs and give them the best love that they can. I am very comfortable with them. Sugar & Iggy🐾🐾 …
They took great care of my puppies. The facility was very clean and the customer service was great.
For starters they are only getting 1 star because I had to put something so this would post. DON’T TAKE YOUR PETS HERE!!!!! Since being home both my dogs have had stomach aches. Not been able to do nothing but drink water no appetite whatsoever. This is very unusual I have an American Bull who is about 80lbs and I have a mix Siberian husky with a pit bull who is about 76lbs and both are acting the same. I signed up for playtime and bath with nail trimmings and although they states they had playtime none of the other stuff was done. I will never let my babies come here again!!!!
We have trusted PetSuites with our dog for the past 4 years for both boarding when we travel and grooming on a regular basis. Everytime we go, he gets excited to check in and it's always happy to see us when picking him up. We usually book the luxury townhome when boarding, so he gets a bigger room, TV, etc. We like to spoil him when he goes in for boarding. They always do a great job, save we will continue to return.
1st PetSuites experience was PetSuites - Greensboro. Phenomenal. Entire staff was friendly, I received a pawgress report & pictures of my Husky while he was housed every time we used the place. Staff sent updates via text during his stay, let me know how he was eating and doing with their food. Expected this one to be very similar, a completely different experience. This time I had 2 Huskies to board instead of one. Check in lady didn't seem to know that they were housing together. During their stay I never got the pawgress reports I was supposed to receive. Sent texts asking for updates, never got any replies. Called and no one answered. Then at pick up after listening to the guy in front of me get a detailed report & explanation of how his dog was all I got was a "as far as I know they were fine" when I asked how they were during the stay. The 2 stars are because they did honor their multi pet discount & the first night stay free for my younger Husky who had his 1st kennel stay. Every experience is different and my last experience at a different PetSuites location was better. Was not the same experience @ this place
Petsuites is a great place for your dog. Daisy actually knew most of the people that work there. She would greet them when we walked in. Great place!!! I like how they will have “picture days”
PetSuites Wendover burned me twice, and I can't forgive or return. I've used multiple PetSuites locations without issue, but this one was new for both my dog and me. Two weeks in a row, I packed the exact same meal, in the exact same bag, but in different containers—and two weeks in a row, they failed to feed my dog his food. The first time, they saw the dry food and just... missed the wet food. Instead of checking the bag, they gave him some random wet food I didn't authorize—a brand he'd never even had before. And when I asked about it? They straight-up lied and said they fed him part of his meal in the morning and the rest in the afternoon. Fun fact: I didn’t even drop him off until 11:30 a.m., so I had already fed him that morning. Despite all that, I decided to give them another chance (bad call). Yesterday, I checked in with the manager, hoping they’d finally get it right. Nope. When I picked him up, the dry food was still in his bag. I specifically told her the food was separate, but she logged it as mixed together. And the “pro” who fed him didn’t even question why my dog was apparently eating two tablespoons of wet food for an entire meal. You’d think they'd be extra careful after screwing it up last week, but nope. The other manager, Blake lied too. Completely over this place.
My pup had a nice stay here. Everyone is so nice and very responsive. They have a good loving team that care for your pups. I will definitely recommend this place.
I boarded my dog here for a few days, on the last day I unfortunately had car issues coming back into town and had to have my emergency contact pick up my dog. When my best friend called me to confirm she had picked up my dog and was headed to my house, she kinda joked she was not asked for her name or ID. The desk attendee simply handed over my dog with no regard to who was actually walking away with my pet. Despite the form when signing your pooch up for boarding asking who is allowed to retrieve your animal and the contact information. I know it’s a worst case scenario, but my dog is everything to me. There should be due diligence to make sure the dog is given to a safe person, anything less than that is unacceptable. I was also not notified of any upset stomach my dog had, and he had poop stains all over his behind. I paid for the pawgress report and called to check in, and it was never mentioned. I know it’s normal for a dog to get an upset stomach while boarding, but I did pay to be updated with that information. I had also called to ask about how his group play was going as they offered to test out his compatibility as I only signed him up for the more expensive one on one, they didn’t even know he had been going and I had to insist another front desk associate had him in group. The front desk associates were very kind when I went, I just feel like this location is a bit disorganized and I won’t be returning.
I don’t trust my little angel with anybody but I trust PetSuites to handle both his regular nail trims and overnight stays when we go out of town. I love the convenience of having a camera in the townhouse to be able to check on him whenever I am away and feeling worried.
I can’t recommend this dog Hakuna Matata enough! When we first started, my dog (Mimi) was very shy and hesitant around both the trainers and other dogs. But thanks to their patience and expertise, my pup quickly started to come out of their shell. Michael, in particular, is absolutely wonderful. You can tell he truly loves his job and pours his heart into working with the dogs. His calm, caring demeanor made all the difference in helping my dog feel comfortable and confident. The progress we've made is incredible, and I’m so grateful to the entire team for their dedication. If you're looking for a training program that not only gets results but also prioritizes the well-being of your dog, this is the place to go!
Hakuna Matata is amazing!!! We HIGHLY recommend their training for your pup! We have full trust with Mike, Joselyn and all the trainers at Hakuna Matata! They truly care about your pup and take amazing care of them as if they are their own. The amount of time, effort and care they put into the training is comforting and it is shown through the results. Additionally, they offer boarding and daycare as well which is equally as amazing as the training! We love taking our pup to boarding and daycare at Hakuna Matata because we know our pup will get full attention, love, care and also reinforcement training. They also send tons of photos and videos of your pup at boarding/daycare, which is an added bonus! Hakuna Matata is truly one of a kind and we can’t recommend them enough to any dog owner!
I love this company! We brought our 7 year old Goldendoodle and our fresh 4 month old Bernedoodle to Hakuna Matata for board and train 2 weeks and the customer service and kindness exceeded our expectations! The whole staff are SO loving towards the animals and each of them really do an awesome hands on job! Not to mention the amount of content I got of my pups showing me what they were working on and their improvements was reassuring and heartwarming. I appreciate that they come to you after training and very patiently walk you through how to keep it up at home! 10/10 will recommend to anyone who asks me!🩷
We had an amazing experience with Hakuna Matata Dog Training! We worked with Mike, who was incredibly knowledgeable and patient with our dog, Brew. He made sure to work at Brew's pace, which really helped build trust and confidence throughout the process. Mike communicated with us every step of the way, keeping us informed and involved in Brew's progress. We're excited to send Brew back for boarding and daycare in the future, knowing he's in safe hands with Mike and the rest of the team. Highly recommend to anyone looking to strengthen their bond with their dog!
From the get-go, Hakuna Matata’s dog training customer service has been amazing. Their knowledge and passion for working with dogs is evident from the start. Our dog, Milo, is a high-energy pup who was struggling with leash pulling and had began to “herd” and lunge towards cars on our walks. After training with Mike, we noticed a huge improvement. We appreciate their personalized approach to understand Milo’s training needs and temperaments. Not only did trainer Mike work with Milo, but also he equipped us with the right tools and knowledge to continue Milo’s training at home. Our pup is still too smart for his own good sometimes, but we now have a better understanding of his behavior and how to approach it in an effective way. We might be biased, but Mike and Joselyn and their team at Hakuna Matata dog training are the best of the best!
Hakuna Matata is AMAZING! We have a four year old doodle that had picked up some bad manners and the leash pulling (she was walking us) and leash aggression were two of our biggest concerns. After a great intro call, we sent her there for two weeks of training. During those two weeks, both Mike and Joselyn were fantastic about sending us updates and we couldn’t believe the progress our girl was making. Upon completion, Mike came and spent five hours working with us on everything Luna had learned and how we could continue working with her. I could have cried when we went out and were able to pass other dogs without Luna barking and pulling. We continue to send Luna weekly for doggie day care and she gets SO excited when we turn onto their street. We also just boarded with them for the first time and it is so nice to know Luna is at a place she loves so much and is well taken care of. We would and do recommend Hakuna Matata to anyone who is thinking about training. It has made our lives, and lunas, so much better especially since we have been able to take her more places :)
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Hakuna Matata Dog Training and their incredible trainers! They’ve completely transformed our dog into the well-behaved, calm, and obedient companion we’ve always hoped for. Before starting training, our dog struggled with barking, leash pulling, and inconsistent obedience. Thanks to the expertise and dedication of the Hakuna Matata team, he now listens to commands with ease, walks beautifully on a leash, and is so much calmer in all kinds of situations. Even his barking has dramatically reduced! The trainers were not only knowledgeable and professional but also incredibly kind and patient throughout the entire process. They tailored the training to fit our dog’s unique personality and needs, which made all the difference. It’s clear they truly care about the dogs (and their owners!) they work with. Hakuna Matata has made such a positive impact on our lives, and we’re forever grateful for their hard work and guidance. If you’re looking for top-notch dog training services, look no further. They are truly amazing at what they do! Thank you, Hakuna Matata, for helping us enjoy the best version of our dog. We couldn’t be happier with the results! --Deveney Family
There are not enough incredible things I can say…we LOVE everyone at Hakuna Matata! Our now 1 year old male golden retriever, Harvey, did the 2 week board and train program back in March when he was about 9 months old. Harvey is so strong and easily distracted…this made simple walks and off leash opportunities very stressful for us. He would pull us down the road and was regularly distracted by anything and everything outside. As with all puppies, his energy was very hard to manage sometimes and he was constantly overstimulated. We did basic commands with him at home, but were out of our scope when it came to all of his other behaviors. We heard about Hakuna Matata from a work friend and began our research. Harvey is like our son and we love him so much, so there was no chance we were going to just trust anyone with him. We were so impressed with Joselyn and Mike during our phone consultation - their knowledge and passion for what they do is so evident and after just one call, I knew they would care for him well. During his board and train program, we got numerous updates throughout the day along with photos and videos to show his progress. Joselyn and Mike were both so responsive and answered all of our questions and concerns. When Mike brought him back to our house at the end of the program, he spent very intentional time with us walking through what Harvey had learned and how we, as his people, can best support and reinforce his training. Harvey was a completely different dog, in the best way. It has completely changed our relationship with him, but he absolutely still kept his silly and goofy side. (I was always a little weary that he would become a robot dog, but that was not AT ALL the case.) Mike and Joselyn are open to texts when we’ve had questions on how to redirect a specific behavior. Harvey now boards there when we go out of town and gets lots of love, play time, and reinforcement! Harvey is our whole world and there is no one we trust more than Hakuna Matata. We truly cannot recommend them more.
We heard about this amazing training team from friends and we’re not disappointed! They took our Corgi for two weeks and sent us updates on how he was doing daily. Once he was ready to come home, they brought him back to us and talked us through the methods, how to use the e-collar and even helped us perform our first walk with him. They are always available for questions and our dog loves going back for boarding. Worth every penny!
Words cannot express how happy we are with our big boy’s training and growth at Hakuna Matata Dog Care & Training, LLC! From the time we dropped him off we felt at peace, even though our hearts broke for leaving him for a two week overnight training. Michael and his entire training staff posted and sent daily videos/pictures of Lee’s progress. He also welcomed any questions we had and was quick with responses, suggestions, etc. On Lee’s graduation day, Michael spent several hours at our home going over EVERYTHING in detail and example and even worked with our other 2 dogs to help with transition. This is a lifetime commitment and consistency is a must but we are so grateful to Hakuna Matata for establishing the foundation for Lee’s success!! FIVE STARS don’t seem enough🥰🐶🐾❤️
We started bringing our dog, Nova to Social Pet Charlotte in January of 2023 and since then we have noticed significant positive changes in her socialization with other dogs. She's a lot calmer and is able to adjust her energy levels according to the dog she's playing with. We were so happy with the service at Social Pet, when we decided to adopt our second dog, Athena; enrolling her in Social Pet's training program was a no-brainer. Athena came to us as a 1 year old, basically feral puppy who had recently had to have a front leg amputated. Her time at Social Pet has really helped with her anxiety around other dogs and our trainer, Victor has done a wonderful job of developing her listening skills. He kept us informed of her progress along the way and we were even able to sit in on a couple of sessions by request to make sure we were keeping up with his program at home. All staff here has been wonderful and not only knows who my dogs are when I call, but completely understands and appreciates their needs based on their personalities. It truly is like a Montessori school for your dogs. I can't recommend this place and Victor's training program highly enough.
Love the daily report card and photos. The facility looked and smelled clean and well taken care of. The staff were friendly and obviously took pride in their business. It was our first time staying so we were a little nervous but Copper came home untraumatized and happy! Would definitely recommend and will book again when we can’t take him along. Thanks for taking such good care of our buddy.
Very friendly staff who are dedicated to making sure your doggos are healthy, well exercised, and happy. We also love the daily report card updates.
My Son Knight has been boarding at the Monroe Road location for a while now. He always has a great time, he gets excited as soon as we get to the parking lot for drop-off. He is all smiles in his photos. The staff members are professional, pleasant, organized and the facility is clean. I don't trust everyone with my boy...but I trust Social Pet.
We love Social Pet and always board our girl when we are out of town here. We get daily pictures of her and everyone knows her and lives in her like we do!
Social Pet is such an awesome place!! My dog basically runs behind the desk when I drop him off because he is so excited. The workers are extremely kind and flexible; I thought I had a reservation for a day that I wasn’t in the book, and they took him anyways even though I’m sure they had to accommodate for having an extra pup. I feel calm knowing my dog is safe and happy when he is here. Highly recommend!
My pups love the greeting they get when they arrive at Social Pet! Everyone there is so welcoming and they know my fur babies by name. The groomers are great, too, and they always do an excellent job!
Mongo has been going to Social Pet for around two years now. He’s got a lot of energy so daycare is a must. The people that work at Social Pet truly give the pups in their care individual attention and love. We tried other daycares before we found Social Pet and always felt like Mongo was being treated as a number. At Social Pet, they know Mongo by name. They ask where he’s been when we’ve gone out of town and haven’t taken him to daycare in a while. It feels so relieving to board him with people we trust, and we will continue to take our boy to Social Pet for daycare and lodging for years to come.
Flapjack had an incredible time. I couldn’t recommend Social Pet more if you are looking for a doggy daycare. Awesome people and very seamless experience all around. Looking forward to our next day there.
We are big fans of Social Pets! I adopted my four year old poodle mix about five months ago. She was fearful of other dogs and people, but since visiting Social Pets once a week, she is much more confident and is a happier dog! The staff are kind and invested in providing an enjoyable experience.
Hands down the BEST pet sitters in Charlotte. Affordable, very communicative, and send updates/pictures every morning when they check on the kitties. It’s so nice to have a reliable company to trust so I don’t have to worry when I’m traveling. Rebecca is the greatest and has built such an amazing place!!!! 10/10 recommend!!!
We trusted Midwood Pet Sitting with the care of our two cats over the Christmas holiday. Rebecca and her team were phenomenal from the moment of first contact. She took the time to learn our house and the unique personalities of both our kitties several weeks before our reservation began. While they were sitting we got detailed daily updates, adorable photos, and even some celebratory videos when our shy cat finally emerged and began to play. The Midwood Pet Sitting team was very consistent in the time of day they visited (good for animals on a routine), loving and enthusiastic in their play and care with our furry guys, and incredibly responsive to us as clients whenever we had questions or updates. Highly highly recommend!
The Midwood Pet Sitting team is incredible. Not only are they caring with our pets (who absolutely LOVE them), but their customer service goes beyond what we've experienced with other companies. They're very flexible, allowing us to handle unexpected events at work by helping with our dog on a minutes notice. On top of that, their prices are incredibly reasonable! I literally can't say enough good things about Rebecca and her team.
Rebecca is the best. THE! BEST!!! She truly loves my babies and sends updates after every visit. The piece of mind i have when she is with my dogs is incomparable. Her prices are affordable and she will send amazing pics of your animals while they are in her care. Check out her instagram for some of her clients (midwoodpetsitting). Truly, Rebecca is wonderful!
Rebecca is the best and has always taken great care of our dog! She is responsive and takes extra time to provide us with updates and sends pictures of how our dog’s day is going :) I feel lucky to have crossed paths with Rebecca, and our dog, River, loves her!
Rebecca and team are just the best. I trust her 100% with my pup. She is so patient with her, and will work with your routine. We are currently working on loose leash walking with our energetic pup, and we have seen a tremendous improvement with her walking. My dog absolutely loves going on walks and get's so excited every time she sees Rebecca for mid day walks. I love the notes she leaves us, and the texts right after. Love getting that update during my work day. <3
Rebecca was amazing watching our cats while we were away. One of them needed drops in his eyes 2x and she had no issues. Sent daily updates and was super awesome to work with. Couldn't recommend enough!
Rebecca and her team are the best pet sitters that the Charlotte area has to offer! Award-winning, established, licensed and bonded pet professionals to help take care of your fur kids while you travel or work. Don't drop your babies off at a "bar" or worry about a rotating cast of strangers in your home. If you live in the 28205, you deserve the best- and it's available to you!
Rebecca has been taking care of our 3 fur pups for 4 years now! They range in age from 2 to 15 and she knows just what each one needs. We trust her to stay over with them when we are out of town and she has become part of our family! She can do quick lunchtime visits or longer stays....she loves the animals and has an amazing work ethic!
Amazing!! Rebecca and her husband do such a wonderful job caring for my 55lb lab mix. They fill his water, give him approved treats, take him on nice long walks, play with him, plus attention and love all for a minimum charge. It was such a relief to know my fur baby was in good hands and getting extra love during the long work days. They were flexible when I needed days switched and even accommodated my request for time of day which made all the difference. They offer additional services like mail pick-up or snagging packages to put them inside, watering plants, etc. to ensure you are happy and satisfied with service. I cannot recommend their professionalism, care, and overall love for animals enough! Thank you, Midwood Pet Sitting! Love, Leo & Shannon
Sometimes you just luck out and happen to find the best pet sitters via a google search! Heather and Amber have been a God send since I moved to the area. They are caring, responsive, attentive. I couldn’t do life without them. My cat Oliver and I thank you! Know that what you do is a gift ❤️
I’ve used Pit Stop for several trips over the past few years and am always so thankful for their help. They care for our pets like their own, making our time away that much more relaxing. Any issues that arise, I know they’re able to address and take care of them just as I would. Special thanks to Tracy who sits for us quite a bit and is just awesome. Thank you Heather and team! Our little family loves you guys so much.
Pit Stop is the only service we trust leaving our dogs with. Jules and Beckett are incredible with our dogs, who are not always easy. Everyone who has watched our dogs has been highly experienced with caring for animals. The company as a whole does a wonderful job of communication during pet sitting stays. Cannot recommend high enough Pit Stop.
We are so grateful to know that our puppy is so well taken care of by someone who truly cares about the work she does. She has the best time with Heather and is always so excited to see her. We love the regular photo updates, attention to detail and exceptional care that Pit Stop Pet Services offers. Thank you Heather for loving our pup as much as we do!
Heather is incredible! We have a dog and two cats and she takes such good care of them every time we are out of town! She sends us sweet photos of our babies when she visits and she makes sure they have everything they need. She even puts on music for the dog when there are fireworks or thunder. We highly recommend Pit Stop Pet Services for any pet care needs you have!!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! Heather and her team of PHENOMENAL experts are exactly what I was looking for here in CLT. We have 3 crazy animals and they love Heather and her crew. They keep the house looking nice and lived in, communicate effectively, send tons of photos and updates, I've had ZERO issues since booking with them and more importantly, my fur children LOVE the sitters. You can absolutely know that they are in the best care. I truly appreciate this wonderful little company because this is more than just a job, they treat pets like their own.
Pit Stop Pet Services is the best service for pets. We have used them regularly for a couple years now for in home sitting, pet boarding, dog walks and cat visits. Heather is always reliable and we never hesitate to use them. We know we can fully trust the health and care of our babies with their care. You book visits on a convenient app and get gps updates and always the cutest photos to brighten my day when I am not home. Excellent service!
Heather and the PIt Stop team have been trusted caretakers of our Beagle/Basset mix for the last 5 plus years. Heather is extremely responsive, professional, and the dogs she takes care of are all well tended to and given the love they need when their owners are at work or on vacation. It gives us a lot of comfort that she takes such close personal care of the pets she is watching over and we greatly prefer using her on longer trips vs. putting our dog into a kennel. Would recommend Pit Stop to anyone who wants their pets to have intimate care while they are away. She treats our dog like she was one of her own!
Pit Stop Pet is the best! My Pomeranian is a shy, skittish little guy who does not take well to new people. Heather took the time to get him to warm up to her and now she sends me videos of how excited he is when she comes in the door! She is the only person I trust to leave him with overnight too. She is great about giving updates and sending pictures so I always feel at ease knowing he’s with her. Heather and her team are great for quick walks, daily visits, and overnight sitting. Great services with reasonable prices!
If you have the chance to use Heather and her crew at Pit Stop Pet Services, do it!! I am a travel nurse who's been on assignment in the Charlotte area for the past 6 months. Heather and Jules have faithfully accommodated my schedule and NEVER missed a walk! They are extremely reliable and they even came out during a hurricaine while I worked my 12 hour shift! My dog always looks so happy in the picture updates they send. You can tell they really care about their clientele! They communicate any concerns and have even medicated my guy for me when I needed them to. I can't thank these guys enough and I definitely can't recommend them enough!!
