Pet Sitting in Awosting

We have been working with Kevin and Julie for over a year now and I would highly recommend their organization. They have been caring for our golden/lab since he was 6 months old. Our dog adores Kevin and Julie. He has come to depend on them as much as we do. They are honest, devote and kind people, who give 100% effort. We have used their services not just for daily dog walks, but also when we go away. Our dog does not like change as most dog don't so putting him in a kennel would not be helpful. When Kevin recommend that leaving him home and visiting 3 times a day would probably be the best thing for him he was correct. Dog Tales is awesome and they our more than pet caregivers they are pet whispers with style!

It is a pleasure to write a review about this great service! We have used dog tales for five years and we are beyond satisfied. My cat and dogs are treated the way I would treat them with great love and care! In addition, during family emergencies the great people at dog tales have always been there to assist us with our pets. I recommend dog tales to anyone who is looking for an excellent pet sitting service.

We have been using Dog Tales for three years and find them to be very reliable, trustworthy and professional. They give our dogs the same love and attention as we do. They have been very accommodating to changes in our schedules whenever possible. They have become like second parents to our dogs and it is comforting to know that our pets are receiving such a high quality level of care. They are great communicators as we always receive a brief written summary of the day's visit. We are very lucky to have them. The dogs feel the same way too. :)

I was afraid to trust the care of my best friend to anyone, but my work schedule required that he have someone let him out and play with him during the day and when I traveled. Dog Tales was recommended by a friend so I gave them a call. Julie came for the "Get to know us visit" which went really well. My pup bonded instantly with Julie!. My Otter fell in love with Kevin and Julie! Their excellent care, knowledge, commitment and love for my boy was amazing. Kevin and Julie undeniably provide the best care for all the pets they come in contact with.

We have been clients of Julie and Kevin for over 6 years. We never had to worry when they cared for our two active labs as it became apparent they loved them as much as we do. Dog Tales was perfect for us as they worked with our constantly changing schedules, were prompt and always cared for my dogs as we would.We now live in Ct. and miss them dearly, as we have been unable to locate a service that cares for our dogs as well!

They did a wonderful job caring for our two dogs for a week while we were away on vacation. Great communication. We had never used a dog sitter before and were nervous about the whole ordeal. We had nothing to worry about, they did a great job for us and showed great care for our dogs. We would definitely recommend their services and look forward to them helping us out again in the future.

While away on vacation, we used Dog Tales to take care of our chocolate lab Teddy. They are a local dog/pet sitting company located near us in the Hudson Valley (Orange and Ulster County). They provided excellent service and let us know about the costs ahead of time. More importantly, they gave us peace of mind knowing that our dog was being taken care of. I know they also take care of cats while people are away.

We have used Dog Tales for over 4 years. We have 3 dogs and a cat. They are family to us. We use them weekly as well as for vacations and overnights. My pets adore them. They are caring and concerned for their well being. They are professional, reliable, friendly and trust worthy. We can't imagine our lives without them. We highly recommended them.

When we adopted a hyper puppy we knew we would need someone to take him out on the three to four days a week that we'd be gone for more than 8 hours. We also have a very shy and anxious 13 year old dog. She is scared of just abiout everyone. We hired Dog Tales thinking that they'd only need to take care of the pup. But Sadie the senior warmed right up to Kevin and Julie! Dog Tales are consistently RELIABLE. When it's slushy or rainy, they wipe up the muddy paw prints. They always leave a note to let us know how the visit went. When we added a cat to our home, Kevin made sure to give him attention and treats (which he brought himself). I would (&have) highly RECOMMEND Dog Tales. We love them!!!

We have been using Dog Tales services for over a year and we are blessed to have found them! They are reliable, trustworthy and always work to accommodate us. They treat our boys wonderfully and I know they look forward to the days they get their walks with Kevin and Julie.

Our dog seemed to really enjoy his stay. The staff was friendly and professional. They seem to do everything "by the book" which I really appreciate. They asked for all of Harkin 's paperwork, wanted contact numbers, and went over his diet before we dropped him off. It looks like a beautiful facility.

My family went on a cruise and left our dog at the plainview Kennel. They took such good care of her. I was so at peace with leaving her in their care. She was well taken care of. They are great.

I cannot begin to express my gratitude toward Plainsview Country Kennels for the love and care they showed our dog, Ziggy, during his stay there. My husband and I were visiting our sons over 5,000 miles away and needed peace of mind knowing that our fearful dog would be safe and cared for. Ziggy can be a difficult fit, he is fearful of everyone and everything away from home. We chose a private room for him away from other dogs, minimizing the noise. The staff took care to give him a little extra TLC and by the end of the stay, he was beginning to warm up to them. I received updates and was assurance that he was ok and when our flight changed at last minute to the following day, and they went out of their way to accommodate us. I definitely plan to use Plainsview Kennel on our next planned travel and they have my highest recommendation. Those reading this will not know my background, but I have several years’ experience running a dog rescue and volunteer organization at an Animal Shelter; I am extremely particular (as we all are) about who cares for my pups. That said, I have full confidence in Plainsview Country Kennel.

I would give 10 stars if I could! We have been leaving our 3 dogs here for years! Helen and Greg run a professional business and keep the facility very clean. We wouldn’t bring or trust anyone else with our fur babies! Highly recommend!

Helen has been most kind and flexible. I like the facilities offered for our large Great Pyr who on occasion can be a handful. They have accommodated our specific requests to keep her outside as much as possible, and made special arrangements to board her during a period in which they were not accepting guests. They even were easygoing about some mischief she got into…. I feel confident leaving our pet with them and would not go elsewhere. Vicki Morgan Erenzo

I highly recommend this kennel!! My family has been using this kennel for years! We have 2 dogs and feel like they are part of our family. The owners and staff here are so kind and caring. This is the only place where we KNOW our dogs are cared for in a loving way. The land that the dogs play in is beautiful. This kennel was initially recommended to us by our vet. Again, I highly recommend it - 5 stars!!

We just picked up our dog after a week long vacation. He was happy and healthy and the facility is always clean. The owners post pictures and videos on Facebook while we're away and missing him. We have been going here for a year now and feel comfortable leaving our beloved dog because we know Plainsview Country Kennel will take good care of him. I highly recommend PCK.

I have been so fortunate to have Helen and Greg Edgar of Plainsview care for my Golden Retrievers Josie and Puck for more than 12 years. Travelling often, I was always able to enjoy my vacations because I didn't worry about my dogs. I knew that not only were they safe and well cared for, they were probably having a better time than they do at home. Wading pools in the summer, and playing with other dogs several times a day. When people ask me where I leave the dogs when I go away, I always say "They're at the Spa!" The last time I arrived to pick up Puck and reached for him with his leash, he looked at me, tail wagging as he got pets from the staff. He didn't want to go home... that says it all.

I love Plainsview Kennels! I am that dog "mother" who always freaks out about leaving her furbaby at the kennel. The owner made/makes me feel so comfortable and at ease when I leave my pup there. She always remembers going there and is super happy when we drop her off and goes to the staff without even looking back at me (which is sad for me but I'm happy she likes it there). I am on my vacation now and just realized I have no anxiety whatsoever in regards to my pup. And I should mention the facility is wonderful and located in beautiful Wallkill NY, my home town. Thank you Plainsview Kennels for this peace of mind!!! Highly recommended!

Good family run kennel. They take good care of the dogs, they have a pick up and drop off service if you need, and the prices are good.

Lakeside Lounge is the best! We bring our dog there a couple times a week to play. She is always met with love and excitement to see her. She always comes home happy and exhausted from playing. We board her at Lakeside Lounge anytime we leave town. They have fantastic groomers that are able to do a beautiful job on her, despite her intense fear of water and having her nails clipped. Our dog is like a child to us. I totally trust that she is in the best hands at Lakeside Lounge. Lia and Fran go out of their way to be there for her and for us. Our dogs home away from home. She’s always excited to be there. Thank you, Lakeside Lounge! We’re so grateful for you.

Lia and her staff are PHENOMENAL. Coco stayed at Lakeside for close to three weeks and he couldn't be happier. Right from the start, the intake process was seamless. We were able to do a tour and meet the staff at BOTH faciliyies. We saw where the dogs were kept and taken care of. Lia and her staff are so accessible via Whatsapp- they gave me daily updates with pictures and videos. Here is my review written on Facebook when I returned from my trip: I recommend this facility 💯 %- the one in Monroe and New Hampton are PHENOMENAL. Our pocket bully was cared for daily, they took the time to acclimate him and shared videos of his daily activity. They are caring, understanding, patient, and detail oriented. They DO NOT skip a beat and you can truly tell that the staff that work in both facilities truly care about animals. My dog was happy even when he was away from his family. The owner Lia, is timely and she responds to your questions and concerns. No question is too small or annoying. We have found our Coco his DayCare/Spa family. He’s vacationing from us and living his best time life when he’s in their care! I highly recommend them- this was his first time away from us and I didn’t worry one bit because the staff and owner are so knowledgeable. Thank you a million times for caring for my baby!!!

Lea is absolutely amazing, I can not say enough great things about her customer service and the way she cared for my cat. My Himalayan was neglected while I was away and needed a lot of TLC and that’s exactly what Lea and her team provided. Not only did she take wonderful care of her she kept me in the loop throughout the entire process. Look no further then Lakeside Pet Lounge for your dog or cats needs and I promise you that you will not be disappointed. Thank you again for taking such good care of my fur baby (Truffles)! I will never go anywhere else for my pets needs!

I HIGHLY recommend Lakeside Pet Lounge!!! Lia was so amazing with our cat Leo and treated him like her own. He had an extended stay with her while we moved into our new home and it went much longer than expected. This was stressful for us but Lia was flexible and made it sooo easy for us knowing our boy was safe with her. You can tell she truly cares and kept us posted on his stay the whole time. Highly recommend Lia to anyone and her amazing business!

Our Boston Terrier absolutely loves doggie daycare at Lakeside Pet Lounge in Monroe! He’s always super excited to go play with his dog friends and comes home a happy tired pup. Everyone I’ve interacted with there is super friendly and welcoming and you can tell how much they really love dogs.

We had a great experience with Lia and the staff at Lakeside Pet Lounge. We boarded our dog for the first time and were super nervous, but everything went great. Lia really worked to get to know our dog's specific needs and integrate her with the other dogs. The indoor/outdoor kennel space they have is awesome too. Our dog came home happy and healthy!

Have had absolutely no issues, they are extremely accommodating, fair priced, and friendly. My pup always has a good time and you can tell they care about the animals. Bring him multiple times a week for day care and have had him boarded before and have nothing but good things to say!

Noah (2 years) and Capone Dillinger (9 months) come home from Lakeside as happy as they did when they left. Both dogs are high energy but come home exhausted from all the playtime they get at Lakeside. Their grooming services are great and the boys always come home smelling good, nails trimmed and ears clean. Lakeside accommodates needs specific to each dog as well. They have gone out of their way to accommodate us and our schedule. I would recommend Lakeside to anyone who needs a safe environment for their dog(s) where they get lots of playtime and attention.

Lakeside Pet Lounge is the best thing I could have done for my puppy! We were leaving my Yorkie for vacation for the first time and we were nervous cause he was only 5 months old and barely 3 pounds. He also hadn’t been around other dogs yet. But after looking at the website, visiting and talking with the owner we felt confident that he was gonna be just fine there and get lots of love and care. While we were gone she sent us lots of videos and updates on him and he was having the time of his little life making friends and playing with all the other puppies.They were all way bigger than him but that didn’t matter to him, he made friends with them and the owner made sure he was safe and with dogs he felt comfortable with. We’re definitely bringing him back for daycare every now and then so he can catch up with his friends and keep socializing. If you’re looking for a place to trust with your puppy while you’re gone, this is it.

HEADS UP TO OTHER FORGOTTEN PETS OF LAKESIDE: If your pet was present at the New Hampton facility on or around October 9 2024 ... please be on the look out for kennel cough symptoms! Symptoms can take awhile to present themselves but when they do ... seek medical attention Lakeside Pet Lounge you continue to disappoint and deflect! Bottom line, I expected a simple apology for the lack of communication to this oversight. However, you have made numerous excuses as to why you did not communicate the potential exspoure. You make a point to reference our Vet, why? When Hazel presented her symptoms and a discussion of her recent whereabouts is had isnt it appropriate to say YES she has visited a doggie day care recently? YES sadly my Vet is aware of your facilities due to other cases related to health issues that have come out of your facilities, whether in August or October myself and others were NOT made aware. Why wouldnt my trusted Vet make us aware of what they know?! You also make a point to reference our nervousness with bringing her there or how she became overstimulated, why? What does that have to do with the FACT that you admit to not documenting her attendance? In case you forgot, Her 2nd to last visit was September 24, as per your recommendations regarding being over stimulated we were encouraged to NOT bring her as frequently. Also, encouraged to come back unannounced on a walk in basis. We followed that exact recommendation, returned on October 9 2024 and when I made you aware of her illness via text October 18 2024 you so arrogantly replied and admitted she was not documented as being present during the potential outbreak time frame! You went on and on reminding me of your vast experiences etc etc but really I only wanted to receive an apology and some comapsion for what we have endured. I am sure you have the MONEY I paid for the services that day!? I wonder how many others are not documented and did not get the heads up! Your facilities name has a bad reputation based off previous and now current health related issues and your continued lack of proper communication. You clearly have not learned from your previous mistakes ... You say going fwd you will do better, I sincerely hope so for all who will continue to attend your facility. We most definitely will not return, I doubt you will even notice her absence as you did not notice her presence. Your obvious tactic of trying to bury my bad review on FB and on Google further confirms my opinion of you. Again, a simple apology or a GENUINE acknowledgment of fault without excuses is what I expected. I made the owner aware and sadly received an unkind response. Clearly she is upset about the bad reputation with regards to health related issues within the facilities, blaming local Vet offices for HER bad behavior and lack of communication is simply deflecting from the actual issue. Parents should take a moment to think .... how has this bad reputation come to be?! Bad reputations don't just fall from the sky! Medical professionals do not just "go after" anyone unless there is reason!
