Dog Sitters in Carbondale

Great place to have my little Chihuahua have a mini vacation. We have used this place for years and completely love it. I have also sent my sphynx cats here on a mini vacation. And my one sphynx needed vet attention. They took care of it Amazing love for pet, so caring. Kathy

Paula and Janet are two of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. They’re professional, accommodating, and absolutely love our dog like he’s their own. The place is clean and the prices extremely reasonable. If you’re looking to board your dog, look NO PLACE else! They’re simply the best!

The best place. Have been using this place for 20 years. And I have boarded all My animals. Dogs and Cats. They are professional. Extremely accommodating. I don’t go anywhere else. Love them. I saw that they had a 1 star comment. But is she can’t accommodate a large large dog it’s because she can’t. She is not a miracle worker is her kennels don’t fit a huge dog.

We love bringing our dog here. Paula is the best and she gets so excited when we call to board our pooch. We really appreciate that. When I go to pick my dog up she doesn't even want to go home. That's how I know she is well cared for.

We have been bringing our dog here for years. Even our dog before. We can't speak more highly of them. Our dog is always happy with going here. Such wonderful ladies!! A very clean place as well.

We have used Waggin Tail for about 8 years now and they are outstanding. In addition their price is very reasonable. They are always very friendly and accommodating. Our Kelli starts to jump and bark whenever we say "do you want to go and see Paula?" Both my Wife and I highly recommend Waggin Tail.

We have been taking our dogs here since they were young. Great people, nice kennels and reasonable rates. Highly recommended!

My both dogs love coming to see Paula! Taz and Tia are inseparable and Waggin Tails always are able to accommodate us by keeping our babies with each other. I love this place and would NEVER trust anyone else taking care of my babes... Thank you Waggin Tails you are the "BEST"!

Great service the owner is wonderful to speak with very reasonable prices and very nice accomodations for pets

We absolutely love Waggin Tail Kennels Our dog actually gets excited when I pull out “his” bag to pack his belongings ! The owners are wonderful to work with. We have been taking him there for 5 years

Update: 11/24/22 We again boarded our fur babies with Puppy Paradise Blakely. And I have never seen them so happy to be somewhere other than running around our home. Thanks again to the wonderful staff - specifically: Ashley (the manager),Trinity, Megan, Danielle, Heather, and Delina who watched over them on their stay. It means everything to use to know they were so well cared for! We highly recommend Puppy paradise and the staff at the Blakely location- and their window rooms! ------- We boarded our 3 dogs at Puppy Paradise Moosic location for 9 days and we are SO happy we found them. We have two senior dogs English Bulldog (12), Mix (9) and a 3 year old English bulldog. They took excellent care of our pets - we have never had them returned to us in such good condition. Skin folds were wiped, meds were given and they even returned with a bath. They are happy - no hair loss or nervous behaviors or accidents since returning home. Staff had Excellent communication. We loved the option to have photos texted to us and updated. We will definitely be booking another stay with Puppy Paradise.

Left my boy, Finn with them for four days while we went out of town for a wedding. It was the first time we have left him since we adopted him at 8 weeks, so I was incredibly anxious. I cannot say enough good things about the staff at Puppy Paradise. They texted me a ton of photos and videos every day, in which you could clearly tell Finn was being loved and taken care of so well. He had an absolute blast and we will be taking him here any time we can’t bring him with us to travel. Thank y’all sooo much for taking such good care of my boy!!

My Newfie/Lab had a wonderful stay here this past weekend and I was really pleased with the care and attention he clearly got. Very reasonably priced compared to other places I have boarded my dogs and they have an option to be texted pictures/updates about your dog while you are away! We will be back for sure!

We're so happy to have Puppy Paradise for our pups. We don't worry at all while we are away. The staff has always been so friendly and accomodating.They can text and send pics of your pups which is such a comfort. Our dogs always come back to us happy and tired! Thank you Puppy Paradise

The staff at Puppy Paradise take SUCH good care of my sweet girl! I never worry about her when she's there. They go above and beyond for all their puppers. The best boarding facility in the area hands down!

Many thanks do the staff at puppy paradise for their help compassion and consideration in taking care of my dog. I especially want to recognize Ashley because she went over and above and helping to keep my dog healthy while I was out of town. She was initially supposed to be there for 9 days and due to a medical emergency she was there 28 days and the staff was Amazing All of us during this crisis. I would highly recommend puppy paradise to anyone who has to board their dog

Very nice staff. My dog was happy everyday he was there. Highly recommend getting the pictures upgrade. Gave us peace of mind

Always accommodating and impeccable care of my dogs. I have boarded my dogs there several times and they love it. Great staff and always willing to help. I feel very fortunate to have them there and can travel with peace of mind knowing my dogs are being taken care of. Thanks puppy paradise.

Definitely recommend this place! The girls were all so very sweet and caring to our puppy while we were away, which helped put us at ease since being away from her for the first time. Our puppy came home happy 😊 We will definitely be taking her here again in the future! …

We've used Puppy Paradise in the past for boarding our dogs during vacation and they are awesome. The rates are very reasonable and they allow both of our dogs to be boarded in the same room (some kennels do not). They were also able to accommodate us at the last minute when we had to suddenly leave town for a couple of days. The staff is friendly and our dogs love it.

We have tried several places to board our Nina & Bella. The places were all cages for the dogs & our dogs are not use to being caged. They love interacting with people & other animals. We then found Barks Town Country, Chris & Brooke are the nicest people! We knew from our first time meeting them they love animals. Our dogs loved going to their home where they got the same care there like home. Our Bella has a medical issue & when she gets nervous there is always a change in her bowel movement. Going to Barks Town Country there is no change in Bella 🥰. Both Nina & Bella come home exhausted from playing so much. We are so grateful that we found them & we highly recommend them.

If you have been worrying about finding a safe and comfortable place to leave your dog overnight, you can breathe a sigh of relief. These are your people. I had been dreading the day when I would have to board our 2 year old dog. She is used to being with family, is a sweet pup, can be a little nervous and is a bit spoiled... I just didn’t see her faring well in a traditional kennel. I found Brooke and Chris Rivera’s BarksTown site and thought it would be too good to be true... However, I’m pleased to tell you that they are amazing. They took our dog into their home and gave her what seemed like a little “vacation” of her own! Our dog got first class treatment that included walks, lots of play time, snuggles, daily brushing, lounging around a super cute home and best of all, she made new friends with the Rivera’s over-the-top cute dog, Marshmallow. I received pictures and daily updates on our dog that included details about how she was adjusting and overall reassurances that she was having a great time! When we got home and reunited with our furry family member, she was relaxed and just happy to see us again. She was bright eyed, rested and even smelled good! Give these folks a call if you need a place for your dog to stay. You (and your beloved pet) won’t be disappointed! Thank you, BarksTown!! 🐾🐶

We boarded our dogs with BarksTown Country this past weekend and I couldn’t have been happier! We have two Rhodesian ridgebacks who can be a little hard to handle, and on top of that, they're my babies so I am VERY overprotective of them and am extremely picky about who watches them. I’ve been looking for an in home boarding service for awhile now and am SO happy I found Barkstown Country. We've boarded our dogs at traditional kennels in the past and I just never felt comfortable leaving them there - one of my dogs would start shaking in fear the second we showed up at the kennel. But when we showed up at Chris and Brooke's, both dogs settled in instantly and felt right at home! We brought them out back to check out the fenced in play area and instantly they started playing!! This is when I knew we had come to the right place! When the dogs are inside they're not kept in a kennel, and can comfortably sleep on the couch or bed (which is exactly what they do when they’re home). Chris sent me pictures and updates throughout the weekend which gave me a peace of mind knowing they were happy and well taken care of! I’d highly recommend BarksTown country! We’ll definitely be using them again!

If you’re looking for a dog walker - then I 110% recommend Barkstown Country. We were having issues with our 6 year old medium sized puppers, Penny. She is housed trained and rarely had any accidents in the house until this passed winter. After a few weeks of consistent accidents we decided she needed someone to get her out of the house in the middle of the day. We reached out to Barkstown and that same day Brooke responded to us to set up a time for her and Chris to come and meet us and Penny and just get an idea of what we were looking for. Right away Penny (and us) loved them! They were so accommodating when it came to my Husband’s and my schedules (which at the time was consistently changing especially with the snow / working from home). After every walk we would get a text from Brooke or Chris saying Penny was good to go and occasionally we’d get an adorable picture of Penny enjoying the outside! We could tell that they just enjoyed taking care of your dog and gave them as much love that we would give our pup. We recently moved out of the area but Chris and Brooke still occasionally check in with us to see how Penny is doing! They’re truly amazing and caring people! Thank you guys for everything!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! I have never boarded my 6 year old Yorkie before and when I had a family emergency (my mother fell on Christmas) Chris and Brooke took my fur baby on short notice during the very busy holiday weekend. I was so nervous and stressed out at the thought of putting my spoiled yorkie in a kennel when hes never even been in a crate - thats when I found BarksTown Country which is kennel free at their own home. Chris and Brooke are the most genuine people and it was divine intervention that I found them because I will go back again and again. It was like having a friend watch my dog. They were easy to communicate with, sent me pictures all the time which totally put my mind at ease, and most importantly they treat your dog like one of their own - seriously! My yorkie snuggled with Chris' mom all weekend (they sent me pictures, she was literally holding him while snoozing like a baby in her arms on the couch) and their dog, Marshmallow, was the most friendly (and adorable) host. I think my dog actually came back to me in better spirits than when I dropped him off! Thank you chris, brooke and family.... can't wait to see you again!!!

We've been using BarksTown's services to walk our boxer Monday through Friday for the past year, and have been very happy. They're reliable, responsive, and clearly care about her. We just started using the BarksTown Country boarding services as well and it was such a relief to know our pup was in good hands while we were traveling. They shared pics and video of her throughout the week and their pickup/dropoff service made it incredibly convenient.

Chris has been taking care of my five cats for a year now. He sends photos of my cats when he visits and keeps me updated on how they are doing. Chris is gentle with my cats and they are happy with him. I’m am extremely satisfied with BarksTown Country.

I am so glad I had Chris take care of my senior cat Etta while I was away He was wonderful with her and even sent me a picture to put my mind at ease She was fed and socialized and received her medications from a loving sole I think she misses him Will definitely use his services again

The best ever!! I have a chihuahua. Pinto first stayed in August and I've used them every month since. Every time I call to see if there is availability for Pinto to stay they come through. Pinto absolutely loves staying with them. Wish I found them years ago!

Gentle and loving owners that care about your furbaby

Lori Jean Karluk of Silver Snuggles Pet and House Sitting is not only an outstanding and reliable human being, she is a true animal lover and advocate. When we travel, we leave our home and beloved animals in her care and never think twice about anything ! She is reliable, caring, prompt, and attentive. Lori Jean adores animals. Last summer we had a suspicious vehicle at our home, and Lori Jean went WAY beyond what her contract required of her. She dealt with the situation for HOURS, calling the state police, contacting us, staying while the trooper inspected our home. Not to mention our cats LOVE her. They come running when she arrives. Need I say more ??

Lori Jean is a wonderful person with a genuine love of animals. My dog took to her right away. She is happy to go with Lori,and comes back happy and looking well-cared for by Lori. I would NEVER leave my dog with anyone I could not trust completely. I am very grateful to have found Lori Jean.

Lori Jean's primary business is pet sitting. But when I could not find a property manager to keep an eye on my father's house through his final days in assisted living and ultimate death, I turned to her for house sitting services. Living 200 miles away, during a pandemic and during winter, she was a life saver. She visited the house, checked for things like leaking pipes, and texted me pictures of the thermostat. One day, the heat was off, and she not only reported the problem, she actually went down the basement, added water to the steam boiler, and fixed it. Have not used the pet sitting services, but we have traded photos of our pets, and her love for animals comes through loud and clear in her online postings. My highest recommendation.

Lori I want to tell you how impressed I was with the cleanliness of your home and your reasonable prices. I will definitely recommend you to friends and family when they need a pet sitter. I was nervous about leaving my dog with a stranger but when my friend Anette recommended you I knew you would be trustworthy. Happy New Year!!

Lori has watched our dogs in the past and has taken great care of them . We would trust her anytime with our animals.

Learned to late

my border collie Oliver loves this place! He comes home completely exhausted and I can tell he enjoys his time here because of he perks up his ears and wags his tail when I say “daycare”. Thank you for taking care of my high energy dog! Highly recommend 10/10

Amazing pet boarding place. My dog always comes home exhausted! I love being able to go on vacation knowing that my dog is happy and safe. I recommend this place to all of my friends ad family! Affordable prices and clean facility.

Absolutely love this place! The employees are friendly and you can tell they love their jobs! They keep it so clean, they post videos daily of what’s going on in both little dog and big dog rooms and it’s great, affordable rates! There was an incident where my pup got hurt. The staff reached out to me immediately and handled it all in a very professional manner. Highly recommend. My pups smile in the picture says it all. She loves it!!

My little girl loves to hear that she going to play with her “LITTLES”. I love that I can drop her off without prior notice. The staff is so great, they handle the dogs wonderful. The dogs are wonderful care Prices are super great too….Having access to watch them is great for worry full fur parents.

Our dog has been playing & vacationing for years at LRD. He loves it, and we love the care he gets! So grateful to have it so close by! 🐶🐾❤️ …

They are so friendly and the periodic pics and videos are awesome. We definitely found our new boarding place. Highly recommend.

My dog was very happy with her stay. She is very little and staff takes extra care of her little needs. She is a little shy too. Nice to know they have sweet , appropriate, animal loving staff. What a relief to not have to worry about my sweet girl while on my trip. Extra ty to Steven who carried her around a lot. 😊 …

Highly recommended! The kennel is clean. The staff is friendly. The dogs are safe. The prices are reasonable. The location is convenient. What's not to like? I've boarded my two dogs here twice. They seem to love it. The owner posts videos of all the dogs every day. It's great. No complaints whatsoever.

Over the weekend, my dog stayed at a care facility and was returned to me with the same amount of food that I had provided. I was impressed with how quickly she devoured her meal and rushed to her food bowl. If you are unable to properly care for a large number of dogs, it may be best to limit the number of dogs you take in.

This place is the absolute best! I never worry about how my dog will be treated because they treat them like they are part of the family. He gets SO excited on days he gets to go play with all his friends :) Friendly staff, clean clean clean!, welcoming atmosphere, great place all around!

My dog, Lipi, was there in June. A day before he returned, I was informed he had some scratches on his nose, likely from shrubs or bushes. I didn't make much of it but when he returned decided to take him to the vet anyway. The side of his face was matted with dirt and under that was a huge gash and swelling. See photos. The nose injuries were worse than I had expected. My dog had to be on antibiotics immediately and it was an extremely stressful time. The vet guessed that he had been attacked by another dog given the nature of the wounds and what appears to be teeth marks on his nose. My dog is extremely mild and meek and sweet - he rarely even barks. He must've been so terrified. This camp came so highly recommended and I could tell by the photos of the first few days that he was having a wonderful time. But this dereliction and negligence - to not check to see if he was injured after scratches on his nose were noticed, that no one seemed to have noticed or seen that he was attacked and injured - because he would've certainly cried. And if he hadn't returned home when he did, the danger of it getting infected. I appreciated the refund and I get the feeling they care about the pets in their care but perhaps they are too oversubscribed or understaffed. Certainly not all the staff has been trained to take care of the dogs and supervise at all times. I hope they addressed these issues but so so disappointed with this camp.

I never leave reviews unless I have strong feelings. We LOVE Eva's Play Pups. I was referred by a coworker who sends their dog to camp. Now, Tiger has been 3 times over the past 2 years and loves it more and more each time he's there. I've never heard of such a great experience for you pup and the staff makes it even better by sharing your pups experiences with you via FB! Professional photos and videos of your pups group. They have exceptional staff members with great customer service. They deserve every 5 star review. Shout-out to Konrad for keeping the pups safe and comfy during van service.

Update: just adding a photo of their winter fun. Eva’s does provide dog coats for the winter though you have your own. When I dropped them off, they were so happy and they loved the snow. They have done late spring, fall and now winter. It’s all season fun and good care! Original Post: I took my two Rat Terriers for an 8 day getaway while I went on leave. It’s a bit of a drive, but the outdoors experience for them is what I wanted. They get to play and explore in the outdoors. I took them there for a two night stay last year to see how the would like it and they seemed to, but when I brought them back for this stay and they almost pulled me down to get in, I knew they were excited. You get updates via Facebook with photos and videos. For long stays, I want them to be outdoors and having a great time. If your pups are a bit on the pudgy side and need an exercise program, this would do it. Make sure to pack extra food because they do slim down when gone for a while, if they don’t usually get this level of outdoor activity.

My dog Tyson had the best time at camp!! I loved the videos, pictures and report card. I feel better knowing when I’m gone he’s receiving lots of love attention and fun !!

Eva is a dog angel, and her team is just amazing! They have a very high standard of quality, care, and safety that is just unmatched, not to mention ongoing training for team members. Thank you for being a standout organization! Eva's is the Gold standard! Thank you for letting me come teach at your facility! I can't wait to come back.

We have sent Ryu and Soi many times to Eva’s and hands down this is the best experience and the best place for our active dogs. They always have the best time! The staff is extremely attentive to our dogs and they are always giving us updates about their health when they stay for a long time. They are constantly sharing photos/ videos of them every day. I highly recommend them! There is no better place to send your dogs! Thanks Eva’s!

We have sent our dog to Eva’s for longer vacations over the past two years and have been beyond satisfied every time. The pup loves it, the daily photos are incredible and so reassuring, the communication is clear and prompt, and even the van pickups are smooth, well coordinated, and we can instantly tell our dog is safe and well cared for. They even send a sweet little report home after each stay. This place is wonderful!

We had an awesome first experience with them. We send our pup here for a long stay and be returned happy, healthy, and cared for. The pickup/drop-off service is super convenient too. The camp counselors take awesome photos and videos daily so you always have a little record of your pup’s activities. They are super responsive through email and we’re really good with our laundry list of food specs and supplements.

Eva took personal care of my dog when my dog was uncomfortable in the kennel, and worked to ease her back into the environment. I was directly informed of everything going on and received pictures and videos when my dog was away from the normal pack. Especially in busy times of the year when there are seasonal workers and lots of dogs at boarding facilities, it was a great relief to know my dog was being cared for so thoughtfully and thoroughly when she exhibited signs of distress.

Our pup Yoshi has SUCH a blast there (outside of NYC and able to run around!) when we were gone for ten days and was well taken care of. We felt so much ease that he was there with a lot of care and didn’t have to worry. Thank you Eva’s!

Our pups stayed at Paw Pack while we went out of the country for the first time + for the first time, I actually felt comfortable leaving them somewhere without constant worry - even though we were gone for a week! The minute we came to check out the place, we got such a good vibe from them. The owner and every member of the staff that we interacted with was super friendly + you can tell they truly love dogs - they were so excited to hang out with our puppies which definitely made me feel at ease. We couldn't get on the app from out of the country so the owner sent me pictures via text/email. The entire experience was so easy from booking to picking up! The prices are super reasonable and they took holiday photos during their stay as well which were super cute! I'm very happy we found a place that truly cares + actually feels like our pups are on vacation too! Highly recommended A++++

I have 2 Golden Retrievers one which is very anxious due to a couple of bad experiences at other facilities. The staff at Paw Pack is excellent and ALWAYS takes great care of my dogs! ❤️

Unreliable and poor communication - we had booked a grooming appointment for two dogs right before Christmas weeks in advance. We arrived early for our appointment despite terrible roads, and provided the receptionist our name and rabies certificates - was told to bring in the pups. Then another worker came in and said “oh we texted you our groomer called in with a family issue we had to cancel…”. No text, nor email or call was received - the “worker” argued with me they did but I had my phone showing no such text. So, as this is not the first time they have cancelled we won’t be giving them another chance. Try to support local businesses but unreliable is not realistic.

Some of the most friendly people you will ever meet! You should never have any question on whether you doggy best friend would be treated well. Heck sometimes i think they enjoy it there more then home 😅 I whole heartedly recommended Paw Pack for anyone who has the best interest in mind for their fur babies! I would give 10 stars if google would let me!

Everyone at Pawpack Doggy Daycare is super nice. They are easy to work with and take great care of my dog.

Our 10 month old puppy has been going here for 6 months now and we love it every bit as much as the day we discovered this place. We have attended a program for puppy Kindergarten (Milo graduated!), used the grooming services, and take him 3 times a week for puppy daycare. He is so excited going into this place, he drags us from the car into the door. He comes home tired from his day of fun on the weekdays, which is good because we are tired from our work days too! Very nice staff that we completely trust with our beloved puppy!

My girl Sookie loves to come here to see her friends! The people are so nice, willing to work with the dogs and the atmosphere is bright and friendly and clean. Sookie gets excited when she sees where we are going.😁 …

Boarded our 2 frenchie for overnight everything seemed ok think they fed them little too much and their food bowl was all chewed up ?? But they were clean and happy when we picked them up will use again Pawpack again , prices are reasonable ,clean place arriving staff was really friendly , and welcoming , upon pick up not so much seemed like they were not all there, were scatter brained but still my lpups came back happy so nice place 4- stars . Thanks

Fantastic place to board your pets! Staff are extremely friendly, professional, and responsive. Highly recommend if you’re looking for either a short or long term stay. Staff were very accommodating to our pups needs and medical issues. Updates were provided to us daily to ensure our dogs were doing well. Facility was clean and accessible to many areas within northeast Pennsylvania. Can’t wait for our next stay!!!!

My 13 month old Australian Cattle Dog “Cassius” had a wonderful experience at Paw Pack Doggy Daycare. It was his first time in a daycare setting. We liked the owner so much we felt comfortable leaving him overnight 2 days later. He couldn’t get out of the car fast enough,he was so excited about going again. We will definitely be using Paw Pack again. We met the husband (co-owner) when we picked up. He made the same great impression as his wife. We could’ve got a daycare closer to our destination. It was worth going out of our way. Love ❤️ this place!

This place is great. The employees are always nice and my dog is very happy and tired when he comes home. If you have not been here yet, just bring your dog in during the week sometime + they will need to give your dog a try out to see how well he does with them. They will take him for a couple of hours and The initial tryout is free. My overly reactive dog was taken in and he did great. Everybody loves him. Their prices for daycare and boarding are very reasonable. This will be my go-to place from now on. PS Make sure your dog's shots are up to date. Specifically rabies. That's a requirement So bring proof. Give this place a try, your dog may surprise you , like mine did.

My dog absolutely LOVES coming here. From daycare to boarding, the staff here are exceptional. My pup has A LOT of energy and always comes home tired from a long day of playing, which is a testament to these fine people. Bandit and I give five paws 🐾 🐶🫶 …

I hate leaving reviews like this, but we had an extremely unpleasant experience with Puppy Paradise in Dickson City. We picked our doodle up after daycare and noticed his hair was matted and cut down to skin in about a six inch section of his back. We tried contacting the facility with absolutely no answer as they would only answer me by text message. Their response was ‘nothing was reported by an employee or saw on camera so nothing happened’. Something definitely bizarre happened and we were left with no explanation whatsoever. Avoid this place and keep your pupper safe!

Lip goes once a week a half-day an absolutely loves it there. Not only does he get to play with other dogs and get tons of exercise but the girls are amazing too. When we pull up out front he's trying to get out of the car and crying to go in.

We board our dogs here when we go away and we use their daycare services more days than not. Love the staff and owner. Can't say enough good about them and my wife is a veterinarian.

This place is awesome. Life saver, when something comes up you just go drop your dog off and come back and pay. So easy and simplifies your life.

Two teenage girls working there handed me an application then left through a door and left me sitting there. I left the application on the desk and left

They take great care of our tinkerbell

Storm loves to go here! Great staff!

Very friendly!
