Julia was awesome. She took very good care of our little fur babies and sent us an update every other day. When we got home the house looked great and the pups well cared for. Julia even picked us up from the airport which was extra nice! I highly recommend her to take care of your home and pets.

Dependable, trustworthy, empathetic, caring.
Tim was an excellent sitter from start to finish. He was kind, organized, and followed through on all home tasks. The house was very clean on my return, and my plants were thriving. I'd love to have him back and anyone would be lucky to have him! Thanks Tim!

Travelling, pet-loving family of 3
Samantha was very communicative from the start and stayed that way throughout our trip. She sent daily updates and photos which we loved seeing and it was obvious that our animals were happy and well cared for. I had what I thought would be a 2 day repair project planned, and they were so flexible and patient when it turned into a full week! Yikes! Came home to a spotless house and happy animals and would welcome this nice family back anytime.

Yvonne was just great. She was wonderful with the dogs, and the house was immaculate when I returned. I hope that she will come again.

Clara and Graham were amazing sitters! We were lucky to have them and would wholeheartedly recommend them. They provided frequent updates during their stay and were tidy and respectful of our home. Couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you guys!

Michelle has sat for us several times and is always a great option. We would love to have her back. She is easy to make plans with and took terrific care of our dogs.

Experienced, confident, and caring animal lover ❤️
Carrie was simply lovely! Both dogs obviously adored her right from the start and they were so relaxed and happy when we returned. We were only sad that Carrie was booked for just a weekend as she was a wonderful house sitter. Our house looked immaculate and the dogs had been taken for lovely walks, even though the weather had been atrocious. We really enjoyed meeting her and hope when she is next in the UK she will come and see us. We could not recommend Carrie more highly to look after your animals and house.

Solo traveler trecking the globe!
Kyle was such a great sitter for our two cats, Buffy and Milo, while we were gone for a month hiking the John Muir Trail. He proved very self-sufficient, which was super important for us since we were hiking and out of cell service for most of the time. Something that stood out was his adaptability. A summer storm knocked out power for two days and Kyle took it in stride. Most importantly, we came home to two happy cats and a tidy apartment. If you are looking for a sitter, look no further than Kyle.

Trusting, caring, responsible & dependable “Grandma” for your home & pets!
Ina was a terrific person and house sitter! We met twice before the house sit and she got to meet Iris who warmed up to her right away. With most strangers, she runs and hides under the bed!!! I really liked Ina's warm and open personality. She was very thoughtful and careful with my things and furniture. She sent me great photos of Iris throughout the 2 weeks I was gone. Somehow she was able to get Iris to sleep in the bed with her. This is truly a thing that I cannot get Iris to do with me!!! I would highly recommend Ina for anybody else who would consider her.
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Shannon and Travis stepped up at the last minute when an earlier sitter canceled. Shannon and Travis took care our our large brood of animals for two weeks while we were out of the country over the Christmas holiday. They kept us informed about what was happening with the animals and our home. Our dog Pepper doesn’t like most people, but loved Travis and Shannon immediately. I would not hesitate to welcome Shannon and Travis back for another sit. They are very honest and friendly people. Their dog Dime is also awesome.
This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!
Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.
I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend. Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay. It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail. She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures. I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it. I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!
I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!
Cannot say enough good things about Charli and Jeff, a delightful couple who took great care of both dog and house. Loved their enthusiasm and attention to details. They are full time traveling pet/house sitters and it shows. They are organized, punctual, extremely tidy and completely self-sufficient. Charli, Jeff, it was a true pleasure to meet you both and you are welcome back any time your future travels bring you to the Charleston area. Warm hugs from myself and Forest.

When getting a puppy, I knew I wanted to have him go to a daycare to get out extra energy. After much research, picking Puptown was by fair the easiest decision. Knowing the love and care the staff has for these animals is unparalleled to any other. I am so happy to leave my beloved Charlie with a group of people that care about these animals. Charlie LOVES going to Puptown and we happily send him 3 days a week. Tyler and his team have the dogs best interests in site. I would highly recommend anyone to bring their dogs to Puptown!
Puptown Funk is the best doggie daycare for my Cleo girl! She comes home happy and tired from all the fun she has! The staff are amazing and know all the dog's personalities. I love that I get a "report card" about what she does while she is there and I enjoy seeing the pictures taken. I would recommend Puptown Funk to anyone looking for a fun and safe place to send their dog.
Puptown Funk is the best doggy daycare around. The staff is wonderful, the play is curated and my dog comes home not only physically tired but mentally tired too. I can tell he has been challenged to think and listen and learn. If your dog goes to Puptown Funk you won't have to worry that it's just hanging out in a pen, bored. Nor will you wonder if it just sat in a kennel all day. My dog is excited the moment we pull into the driveway. 10/10 would recommend. (I added a picture of Tonka focused on the agility course. I've already noticed he listens better since he started with the agility lessons!)
We started bringing Mack to Puptown Funk a month or so ago. He is a very energetic 15 month old golden retriever. In the time he has been going there, we have seen HUGE improvements in Mack- listening and following direction better, increased positive interaction with our family! Tyler came out to help me learn a new way to get our stubborn boy into my car. Mack looks forward to going to play (he is great at showing and vocalizing his his excitement) and he just loves all of the wonderful staff!
Puptown is a great doggy daycare. My girl Chloe goes there two to three times a week and absolutely loves it there. The handlers are awesome and Chloe gets so excited when we get there. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog.
Incredible people, incredible environment, and incredible care. What more can you say about this amazing doggy daycare! Our dog has been going there for almost a year and all of us couldn’t be happier! We are proud to be members of the Puptown Funk family!
I visited Puptown Funk when vacationing in Maine and couldn't be more pleased with their service and commitment, both to the individual dogs and to us people. As a former animal welfare inspector, I was quite impressed with their system of allowing dogs that get along to enjoy playing together, while keeping a watching eye over any potential conflicts and acting accordingly for the peace and safety of all. Of course that requires Tyler's (and each member of his staff) personal knowledge of each and every dog in his (their) care to understand the individual needs, quirks and limitations of each dog, allowing them (but not forcing them) to develop their social skills and being rewarded with the joys of playfulness and regular rest. I highly recommend Puptown Funk! ❤️
We are very happy to have our dog at Puptown twice a week! The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, and they take every care and precaution managing the dogs. Our dog absolutely loves going there, and the dogs don't lie! Highly recommend Tyler and the Puptown crew.
As a first time pup owner, I wanted to do everything I could for my baby girl. I've heard the scary stories some people say about doggie daycare but Puptown Funk has made all those scary stories seem just that...stories. The staff are amazing and they take fantastic care of Ruby for me on those busy days where I need her to be at daycare. I can't say enough good things about this facility. Ruby shakes with excitement when we turn into the driveway and she runs inside. She's greeted every morning with a warm hug from the staff and they provide report cards weekly to discuss how she did. Anyone looking for a daycare for their pup...please use Puptown!
We've been bringing our dog, Osi, to Puptown for over a year. We were excited to learn that they passed their recent inspection by the Maine Animal Welfare Program with flying colors! The thing is, Osi knows. She's well cared for at Puptown, and seems to be aware of the days she's going. She won't walk in the morning on those days - she'll stop at the car, and wait until we let her get in for the ride to Puptown. Tyler and his staff all have a genuine love for dogs and for the work they do. We cannot recommend Puptown Funk highly enough.
My dog is skittish and had never had a trim at three years almost because she used to have acerage. Now an apt dog, I went here and she is so professional and fast. No trauma, no cut quicks. In and out in 6 minutes. 10 stars to her
We have two GSD mix rescues who hate to get nail trims. One of the big pet stores in Augusta asked us not to return (dogs are NOT aggressive, just struggle). Vet couldn’t do it either - said they need sedation. I heard that Lisa was wonderful and wow- yes! Her husband soothed and cuddled while she clipped. We now have healthy paws. I am beyond happy. Recommend highly for their professionalism and compassion
I have taken my dog and my daughter's dog to Happy Tails for several years. Lisa shows her love for grooming dogs and her prices are beyond reasonable. I want excellent service and I get it.
My Wife took our Little Chihuahua to Happy Tails My Wife stayed with her while she was Groomed, Lisa did such a awesome Job my wife said and when when Emma Lou came home She looked Amazing... and Smelled amazing Highly recommend this service.
Omg this is the best groomer bar none. My long hair Wegie Rose is so pretty when she gets her hair did here. Love her. 💕🐾💕
Lisa really cares for your pets. If you bring your animal to her she will treat it like one of her own. Can't ask for better service
I love this place, Lisa Hawkes is fair honest and an accomplished groomer as well. Friendly place and in a lively area of Farmingdale.
Good job, great price, very nice groomer. Highly recommended.
She is very accommodating and treats my dog very well.
They do a great job on Molly & have a positive attitude.
Kim has cared for our dogs for well over 10 years and she is the best. Before discovering Kim's K9 I tried several others and nobody cares for my dogs like her. The inside was recently remodeled and looks great. Thank you Kim for being there for us.
We have taken 3 dogs over the past 10 to 15 years to Kim's Canine. They have stayed anywhere from just one night to 9 nights. All of our dogs have looked forward to going to see Kim. My first pugs would yelp with joy when we would mention where we were taking them. When we dropped them off, they never looked back when we left. It's such a great feeling to know my dogs are well taken care of and they enjoy being at Kim's.
my dogs are always well cared for, and I love the safe, fenced in yard that they go out in, along with the "bedroom" they have inside. And then they get special time in the "living room" with TV and toys. I never worry that they can dig out under a fence, or are unsupervised. Individual needs have always been met. My dogs recognize where they are when they are dropped off and go happily inside with Kim which tells me they are happy to stay there!
My extended family and I have been boarding our dogs here for around 10 years. It is so nice to drop your dog off somewhere and know that they are well loved and cared for 😊. I have nothing but great things to say about this business. The price has never increased and the owner has always managed to make room for my pup - even at the last minute. I would highly recommend Kim’s canine retreat.
This place is amazing! Each dog has their own room and she makes sure the bigger dogs get the bigger rooms. There’s plenty of space for them to move around. There a doggy living room with couches and toys and even a tv for the pups. Cameras to watch the pups if she isn’t by there side. She allows each of the dogs outside time multiple times a day in a huge fenced in area and will even have multiple dogs out at the same time to play with each other. The owner is amazing and treats every dog like they are her own. If your pup has a hard time without you, she makes sure you are informed and gives that pup extra time out and extra love! I love this place and I would never take my fur baby anywhere else.
Love Kim's. Only ace I have taken my dogs for 10 years. My dog can be difficult with people and he has been nothing but excited to see Kim. No concerns with the level of care. Thank you Kim.
This is the only place to leave your dog's. Where else would they be given a room each (dog sized)? Where else are they encouraged to socialize with like minded, similar sized dogs, in front of a fire place and t.v. with a sofa? Your best friend becomes the best friend of Kim and her staff. Why would you let yours be placed in cages?
Kim takes great care of the Dogs that she boards. I won't leave my Golden Doodle with just anyone and she is one of those people!
Our dog loved it there! A wonderful house, so cozy! I can only recommend this place!
