We will lovingly look after your pets and care for your home as if it's our own.
We love Jennifer and Steve, and our cats do so too. No kidding: these two are the perfect pet sitters. This was the second time they stayed in our flat and again it was just perfect. No problems whatsoever, every few days updates on our cats with pictures and videos, a totally clean flat when we came back after nearly 4 weeks and two happy and relaxed cats. And not to forget: Jennifer again welcomed us with a wonderful dinner. Jennifer and Steve have become friends, and we highly recommend them as house and pet sitters. Reliable, clean, very very pet friendly... we would like to keep them for ourselves, but I guess other Pet Parents should get to know them too. THANK YOU JEN AND STEVE. Please come back...

Daria was great! She sent pictures of our kitties every day we were away, and they looked happy and relaxed. She was very communicative, and we felt secure with our pets, and our home, in her care. Thanks Daria!!

Responsible Pet and House sitting couple. Animal lovers, non-smoking.
Shawn and Jennifer were the perfect pet sitters! We could not have wished for better people to look after Salt and Pepa! Not only were they meticulous in keeping up the cat`s routines, nurturing S&P`s idiosyncracies, and keeping them clean, fed, and happy in general, but they went above and beyond finding out what else they could want or need in a truly empathetic way. Shawn and Jen taught them new tricks, played with them often, stayed in with them most of the time and observed them and their characters so well, that it seemed after only a few days like they have known - and loved! - the cats for some time. Before we knew these sympathetic brilliant sitters with heart, brains, and instinct we were nervous about leaving our not even 2 year old cats with strangers for more than a month, especially since Salt can be a fragile soul who is very shy and needs a lot of time to bond with people if she does it at all. Not with these two people. They know how to handle cats professionally. Instead of overwhelming them, Shawn is present and offers them attention and playtime. We were able to fully enjoy our time away from home since they were communicating extremely well and in the frequency we agreed on. So we got pictures or videos of S&P every day and reports. The reports as well as the pics showed us that S&P had an extremely good time, and that after only a few days they behaved completely "normal", i.e. we recognized "our" cats from the way that Jen described them and photographed them. Shawn and Jen are both extremely reliable, down-to-earth and self-sufficient. IF there would have been an emergency, we could not have asked for better guardians. The welfare of the cats was always their first concern. What more can we say but that they are also very friendly, humorous, calm and intelligent human beings. When we came home S&P were like: "Oh.. you..? Ok.. But were are the other two?" In our living room was a carefully arranged series of printed out photographs by Jen the excellent photographer. We are so very thankful to Shawn and Jen that they agreed to look after our kitties - and our home, which they also did without fail - and we are truly happy to have made their acquaintance. Hopefully, we will meet again!

Retired and ready to care for your home and pets!
Truly exceptional. She baked cookies, if you can believe it. Such a perfect sit for our beloved animals and the house was almost certainly cleaner than we left it. Can’t say enough positive things about Kathryn and her husband, Rick. Filled with gratitude!

Caring, conscientious, tidy professionals here to care for your pets and home
Super easy to communicate with, and they took fantastic care of our two dogs and our house. Could not be happier with the overall experience. Highly recommend Alexandra & Brad!

Joan was incredible during her stay at our home with our dog, Obi. She was so communicative and went above and beyond in terms of keeping the house clean and ensuring our home was in order and Obi was well taken care of. We’d love to host her again and anyone booking her could rest assured that their home and pets were in good hands! She respected that we were on vacation but also seemed to read my mind around when to send updates, and asked questions as they came up. Thank you Joan!!

Responsible, flexible, and happy to house sit!
Angela did a great job of caring for Bella and Jack. Her communication with us was excellent. She was able to effectively resolve a couple of challenges demonstrating her initiative and understanding of resources available.

Responsible and honest housesitter here!
Everything I read about Marcus from his many many previous reviews was true. He took excellent care of Shadow & my home. His attention to detail in my welcome info was perfect and he sent me some images of he and shadow on walks each day. So thankful to have had Marcus here.

Nicole was a delight! She's a very experienced sitter, loved our two kitties to bits, and took care of everythng on the home front. We were off the grid for most of the sit, but came back to photos and images that showed us two blissed-out cats! We can't recommend Nicole more.

Happy to help your family love your pet while you are away
Trisha sent lots of pictures and updates and was patient with us when we had no cell service for part of our trip!
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.
The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
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!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!

Diane, who answers the phone and questions, was so quick to respond and very helpful. Lois, the owner, was so easy to communicate with and understood our special concerns. Robin, our pet sitter, was amazing! She was on time (actually early each visit) and she was so very comfortable with our large dog Ocala. Robin was easy to communicate with, understood our concerns for our tempermental baby, and overall a GREAT pet sitter! We highly recommend Wiggles and Wags LBI ! To the point, that my husband suggested that we fly Robin into any of our vacation locations so that she can sit with Ocala! Thank you, Wiggles & Wags!
Lois was fabulous with training our pug puppy. Our puppy was taught how to sit, stay, touch and also did agility training. I would highly recommend.
Lois and her team took excellent care of our 2 big rescues while our daughter was getting married at The Sea Shell Resort in Beach Haven this past September. They stayed with our dogs at the hotel, while we attended the Rehearsal Dinner and the Wedding event the following day. We couldn’t be happier with their attentive, caring service. Our dogs were walked, fed and just plain happy! I was so pleased with the level of care that I recommended Wiggles and Wags to our wedding planners at the Sea Shell. BTW- we were 1st time customers. Highly recommend!!
We're experienced dog owners who had never used a trainer before. We now have a very sweet but stubborn :) Golden puppy and realized after a couple of months of trying on our own that we needed help. Lois came highly recommended by several people in a local group and we couldn't be happier with the progress she's made with our pup. Ruby now responds to commands, plays fetch and, most importantly, does not run out the door unless instructed to do so. She is always VERY happy to see Lois! We highly recommend Wiggles and Wags!
I can’t say enough about Lois and Amanda. Lois trained our crazy puppy Finn now he’s a much better pup. Both Lois and Amanda have dog sat at my house for visits and overnight - always giving updates on the dogs even pictures!
We can always count on Lois and Robin when we need someone to walk our dog Kira. They go above and beyond, including homemade treats and a personal summary of their visit. Look no further for the best dog walkers in the LBI area!
They truly love and care for the dogs they walk. My little dog is happy when they come because she is loved by them. I feel much better when I'm at work knowing my dog is happy and healthy because she is safe with professional caring walkers who really want her to be comfortable and happy.
Loved meeting Lois. A world of knowledge and my dog loved her!
Great service, people you can trust to care for your pets.
Lois treats your dog as if it is your own. She ROCKS
Lucky’s is the absolute best! We have been brining our pup here for doggy daycare for two years now and he loves it! He goes bananas just hearing the name Lucky’s and cannot control his excitement the second we arrive. It is a great feeling knowing your pup loves going somewhere and all the staff members are just amazing! 10/10 recommend Lucky’s Bed and Biscuit :)
My dogs are my children therefore I do a lot of research before sending them somewhere. Therefore Google reviews are so important!!! First I have two dogs one is a German Shepherd and the other is a Siberian Husky thus it makes it hard to find places that will take big dogs. When I stumbled across Lucky's Bed and Biscuit I loved the photos especially the video because I knew my dogs would be accepted. Then I started reading the Google reviews and I was really impressed! I make a trip to New Jersey once a year to take care of stuff for my dad this trip however was going to be different because my dogs couldn't go to a lot of the appointments that we had scheduled during my two weeks. I called during Memorial Day weekend to book my 10 visit package and my one overnight stay and was very excited to find out that my package included an extra day because of the holiday sale. The receptionist was polite and helpful on the phone booking my package, my overnight stay and helping me book my first two play days. Upon arrival for their first play day the receptionists at the front desk were helpful and made the check-in process easy and took their time answering my questions. The check out process was just as easy and I could tell upon picking up my dogs that they loved their day!! One of the things that I loved about this place is the extra packages that were available because this made it less stressful for me trying to find other places such as a groomer, so during my dogs stay I was able to get a brush out and I was also able to add a food package to their daily food to ensure that they were eating during their stay at the facility. Also I need to mention that one of the things that I loved was when picking up my dogs I was handed a summary of their day which help me because it told me how they played who they played with, if they ate along with how many times they went to the bathroom. As a parent it's important to have this because I am able to see if my dogs were stressed being there just by how they ate their food and how many times they went to the bathroom. I am so glad that I found this place and I'm excited for future trips because I now have a safe place for my dogs to go and have fun while I'm taking care of other things. PS I should add that in the mornings when the dogs saw I was getting dressed they would literally run to the door by their leashes and wait for me so they could go to Lucky's Bed and Biscuit!!!
My Bentley LOVES Lucky’s Bed & Biscuit! I wish I could bring him everywhere with us, but there are places that don’t allow dogs. I feel confident and worry free when he is at Lucky’s because I know he is well taken care of and having a lot of fun!
Obsessed with Lucky’s and will plan to use them every time we come to visit family in Beach Haven! We booked daycare with only a couple day’s notice and even scheduled a nail cutting service the same day without any issues. When we arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly and professional— To our surprise, we were also able to arrange to have our pup dropped back off in Beach Haven (and got to avoid so much traffic on a busy summer weekend)! Oh and the retail selection is amazing!! They have a HUGE assortment of toys, leashes, apparel and doggie treats. We also loved that he was returned to us smelling better than we dropped him off (even though we just had his nails trimmed)x Plus, getting a puppy report card so we got to know what he was up to all day was sooo cute and nice. Btw The hat we had to buy him didn’t end up fitting… but now we get to return it right at the Lucky shop in Beach Haven!
This is a truly elite facility. It is pricy, but you are absolutely getting what you pay for here. They will give you a tour of the facility and you should take it. They have a pool for the dogs and the rest of the indoor/outdoor areas are really nice. They will also pick up and drop off your dog if you’d like. We are not as high on the grooming they offer, but their doggy day care services are truly top notch. We wish this was closer to home!
Our dog loves Lucky's. Sh always comes home happy and healthy. They treat her like ther own. We wouldn't consider send her anywhere else
The best groomers around! Always so sweet and so patient and do a fantastic job! I use them for my pup and my parents who live up north (when they’re not in LBI) even drive down to have their dog groomed here. Fantastic group here! And our dogs ALWAYS look great!
My wife and I have been clients for approximately 18 years. We have brought two different dogs here, both cockapoos; Mocha for 5 years, and most recently Rocky for 13 years. When you call Lucky’s the voicemail advertises that they’re “where your pets are family.” They live up to that statement every day! Richie and the rest of their dedicated staff are wonderful with their clients and the dogs. Rocky has been in their “serenity suites” the past couple of years as an elder dog and was treated sin such a gentle and loving manner. We just laid him to rest on Friday at the age of 16 (we think), and I just wanted to thank them publicly for treating both of our dogs so wonderfully throughout the years. If we decide to become dog parents again, we will undoubtedly use Lucky’s! We recommend that you do the same.
Our 2 1/2 year old dog Mars had his first stay at Lucky's this past April. He is a rescue and we have had him less than a year. Our usual boarding facility was booked and an aquintance recommended Lucky's. I am very apprehensive about finding the right boarding facility since Mars has anxiety from being in so many foster situations, and also at times is fearful of other dogs. I found their Website to be promising, and their intake paperwork seemed very thorough to get to know him and be able to deal with him on an individual basis. Let me just say we had a wonderful experience at Lucky's and have booked them again! We received daily pictures of Mars with updates on how he was. In addition, if we had questions our emails we answered daily. Haley and assistant manager Taylor really put my mind at ease with their thorough communication. We also had him groomed their which I was really pleased with, they gave him a blueberry facial! He came home in great shape, was happy and had no problems! We even received a report card on his stay! Thank you Lucky's for doing a great job on a holiday weekend!
Always welcoming, well run and very positive experience at every client touch point. As an owner of a busy veterinary hospital I understand the team approach it takes to care for not only the furry client but also those at the end of the leash. Thanks for making my little girlfriends days in LBI a very enriched and rewarding day 😍😎✌️ …
My Dad suffered a stroke and we had to rush to find someplace for April,I live 3 hours away so we were searching hard for a kennel many said they could NOT help,Cranberry Creek was the ONLY one to help us,even though they were also very busy,they took in April. All the people there were OUTSTANDING!! I can't remember her name but she had white hair and glasses and she was very very helpful and always on top with communication and details. 1000% professionals all the way and their prices are awesome.
One of the best kennels in the area. Clean facility, compassionate staff and very knowledgeable.
Cranberry Creek is the BEST. Hands down. The owner and staff truly love animals, and this is completely evident in their care of both pets and humans alike. I am so very grateful to have been referred here by our vet, and even more grateful to everyone who treats my dog like one of their own. My pup actually gets excited about staying here, and gets plenty of playtime and attention!! I never feel like I have to worry about the quality of care he receives. Drop off and pickup are an easy and smooth process, calling to book is always pleasant - it honestly feels like I am leaving my dog with FAMILY and not a facility. This is both a reflection on the ownership and each and every individual that works here. I can't thank Cranberry Creek enough. If you're reading this and are unsure - call and ask to tour the facility! They're very transparent and are always eager to help.
Highly recommend Cranberry Creek, they are super professional, compassionate, and reasonably priced for the level of service they provide. We have two large and needy huskies and they provide the best care. We've been going there for over 5 years and from day one. They always treated our dogs like an extension of their family. It's like we're dropping them off to relatives so we have peace of mind.
Boarded our dog Finn for very first time and were very nervous about leaving him. Everyone was so nice and welcoming and he was very at ease when we dropped him off due to very friendly staff and calm environment. When we we picked him up we could tell he was well taken care of and happy. Can’t say enough about cranberry creek boarding!!
They took exceptional care of my dog while we were away. I checked in everyday and they were more than happy to talk to me and Megan even texted updates! Everyone we encountered was great. Thank you guys!
I couldn’t be happier with our first experience working with Cranberry Creek. After we met the staff and toured the facility, we had no hesitation to leave our pups. It felt more like “doggy camp” than “dog boarding”. In fact, I remarked that I’d like to camp there myself. We loved it so much that we already booked another overnight.
Friendly staff. Extremely clean. Beautifully designed and maintained very well. Prices are reasonable. Gravel car park. Great views. We would highly recommend leaving your dog or dogs here. We left 2 aggressive dogs here for a night, a wee bit apprehensive at first. No issues. I'd give them 15 stars if I could.
So grateful to have such wonderful people to help me with my puppy he is a handful and not happy with grooming but Tina does a beautiful job every one asked me where I take him and I am happy to share that thanks again Tina
Wonderful caring people. My dog who is blind took to them right away. The place is super clean. No smell of the dogs. Chance my dog and I say thank you very much for a temporary 🏡 home while I was away …
HIGHLY RECOMMEND this kennel! Previously took my 100lb lab/mountain dog mix to another trainer... trainer stated too difficult to work with come get him! I sought out Robinswood Kennels from their great reputation in the dog training community. BAM!! This was the BEST decision Ever! Left my dog MARTY there for 2 weeks.. coming back for intermittent training with a fabulous trainer Rick Mc each time. He not only solved many of our issues with Marty but helped us understand what we were doing wrong! The kennel was always clean when we dropped in unannounced which was important to us. A+ in my book!
We couldn't be happier with Rick and Desiree at Robinswood! We came to them a few months ago with our Pittie puppy who we found out in the middle of nowhere. Our baby, Bella, was extremely hyper, more hyper than your typical puppy, which is why we believe she was dumped. Bella would not listen to anyone, would bite and jump, typical puppy behavior, I know, but it was becoming a serious issue, especially the biting. She would act as a bully to my 5 year old Pittie and would send her into full-blown panic attacks. We decided to do the 2 week basic training which turned out to be the key to almost all of our puppy problems! We plan to complete the advance training in the fall! Not only is Robinswood good for training but they are also great for kenneling your dogs when you go away on vacation! Between training and kenneling, we've used them 3 times and we couldn't be happier! It's so worth every penny!!!
I brought my dog Max there maybe 11 years ago and Rick did a good job. Now it seems that Rick has retired and his trainers need training. I do not recommend his place anymore which is a shame. The master is gone and your dog may as well be trained at pets mart for 3 hours except you still pay the price of a professional dog trainer which your dog will not meet unfortunately.
Rick, Eric and Desiree did an amazing job with my 6 month old Giant Alaskan Malamute! He was stubborn would only listen when he wanted, was extemely mouthy the typical puppy behavior that was getting out of control. Takaani spent two weeks there and came back an extremely well mannered boy. The staff showed me what to do and how to continue his training that they taught him. I will be taking Takaani back for the advanced training. Thank you for your help! Sincerely, Lisa Worth
Dogs bark all night, not attended to at all. Wouldn’t leave my dog here even if it was free.
Great facility great people taking care of your family pet. Kennel is kept very very clean. Have had my GSD there for grooming, training and breeding. He was born and bred by the owner. We're hoping for pups in late spring, early summer
Our dog diesel is a bully breed who is very protective...but he lovessss it there!!
Trained our Doberman… made her perfect for our family.
What a great place friendly staff decent facility.
Love how they took great care of my baby!!
We love Lucky Dogs so much! They are absolutely the best in the business and in the area. My dog couldn’t be happier with all the love she gets from the staff. I feel comfortable every time knowing my dog is in the safest hands! They are …
Can’t say enough about lucky dogs boarding ! We boarded our 1 year old German shepherd for 10 days . We were nervous about leaving him for the first time but he got so much love and attention ! They gave multiple updates a day and we could …
I never felt so comfortable leaving my dog with someone! Being able to drop in on Trixie at any time of the day was great. We have had a pet sitter stay at our house with her before, but Lucky Dogs exceeded my expectations. I will …
