A few months ago, our dog, Alfie, became what we called, Facebook famous, after his door dashing…read morehabit resulted in his photo being plastered over all the Baltimore neighbor groups. After his last great escape, I realized that he needed some exercise to break up the monotony of his day. I emailed Andy and he was kind enough to come out that day and meet Alfie (and us, the humans in Alfie's life.) Andy started coming the next day to run with Alfie and wear him out until we get home. It's only been a few weeks but so far, so good. Andy is a pleasure to deal with. He's communicative and great with both people and animals. We really can't thank him enough for everything he's done for us and for Alfie.

We went on vacation for Memorial Day, as promised, and once again asked Dan to stop by and take…read morecare of Miss Kitteh. As always, he did a fabulous job - she was fed, entertained, and treated like the Royal Highness that she is. I had written some detailed instructions this time because of certain changes that had occurred since their last visit, and everything went smoothly and exactly as planned. To top it off, Dan actually let me know that I had overpaid them and said that he would credit my account for a future vacation - now that, my friends, is honesty. As far as I'm concerned, they can keep that money as a tip, because they surely deserve it. I am so glad that I selected Dog Day Afternoon as my pet sitting provider. As you can see by the other reviews, they're unmatched in both care and customer service.

Love Those Paws was great from the moment I messaged them for a quote until I returned from…read morevacation. Stewart guided me through setting up a time to go over all the particulars. Despite me typing up a whole instruction sheet, he insisted on walking through again just to be sure (which is very reassuring). The actual pet sitting was spectacular. The pet sitter who was assigned was Kim. She spent plenty of time with the cats and made sure they were well cared for while I was away. The visit reports they leave are really cute as well. Could not have gone smoother! I'd also like to add that they were available with very short notice (3 other pet sitting companies were unable to handle our request). Also want to add that Stewart (when he came for the home visit) was wearing a mask and gloves to protect against COVID (a welcome sight). Pet owners would should have their minds at ease if they select Love Those Paws. If I go on vacation again (few and far between these days) I would definitely use them again!

We've been using Love Those Paws since 2015 to watch our cockatiels when we go on vacation. It is…read moremuch less expensive than boarding them at the vet and less stressful for the animals. The sitters vary but all are enthusiastic based on the reports they leave. After every visit the sitter leaves a note of when they came and left and what they did. They also usually text us an update and a picture of our birds. We come back to a stack of reports. The sitter stays a while after the food, water, and paper are changed to make sure the birds aren't acting weird, and I hear that some singing goes on. We've never had a problem and have be accommodated at very short notice when we want to go away for the weekend. I highly recommend this company. 1/27/20 Update: Just used them again during a ten day trip to Hawaii. I'm pretty sure our birds are in love with Alex, who came for most oF the visits. Now they are just stuck with us. As always, a great experience and we love being able to travel without any worries.

I have a pug and rescue skittish dauschund, both treated as QUEENS, taken in for an immediate grooming and walked out looking beautiful and happy! The minute you walk inside you are greeted with family customer service, detail is evident in everything here. The Decor speaks for itself, open space and friendly to both you and your dogs. I will be making monthly appointments. This place will literally change our routine as it is easily accessible by foot and my dogs were so happy! They smelled great, had their nails done just right and I'm a super picky mom! I'm excited because they offer so many things such as references to vets, they sell books/art/dog supplies and professional photography. I'm honestly obsessed and I hope that if you live in Fells point/Canton/Harbour east You will check this place out. Five stars all around.

She'll come and walk Toby and send me pictures telling me how their visit went. If you need a dog walker, Lori is your gal! She's the dog whisperer.

Lori is the best!! She is great with my little Kacy. I love how she sends me text updates with pics…read moreanytime she comes to walk Kacy. Lori knows who Kacy's friends are in the building so sometimes she will walk them together, and they love it! It tires them out and they have fun. I always leave a frozen Kong with peanut butter for Kacy, and Lori never forgets to give it to her before she leaves. When Kacy is sick or not feeling good, Lori will check on her and update me with how she is doing. When I'm running late from work or something comes up during a work day, Lori will come walk Kacy. Kacy loves her so much!! I would recommend Lori to anyone who has a dog. She is so sweet and plays with the dogs, and is very attentive.

Danny is awesome. We worked with him for 18 months until we moved out of the area. Our dog was…read morewalked at least twice a week, was sometimes boarded at Danny's house for weekends or vacations away, and we even added dog daycare for a bit before we left. Our dog LOVES Danny and took to him right away. We had 3 different dog walkers during our relationship and Danny always made sure we met the people and that we and our dog were comfortable. All three had different styles and strengths they brought to the table. Danny is very good about communicating via text and would often email pics of our dog playing or relaxing while being boarded or at daycare. The pics were never anything I expected but were always a nice surprise, especially for longer trips away. I highly recommend Danny's Petcare. A service gem in Brookland! Make sure you get in touch well in advance for boarding.

I…read moretravel a lot for work and they cat sit for me often, leaving notes behind about my little guy's activities. I used to be very anxious about leaving my house for extended trips but they bring in my mail and check around the house for any 'gifts' my guy has left behind. One experience comes to mind as a huge help. I was on a plane coming back from London and my kitchen ceiling started to flood. They found a bucket in the house and put it under the drips, called me, and sent a video to my phone. When I landed I was able to schedule a plumber right away to meet me at the house. By having the bucket in place they prevented untold damage to the kitchen and basement. They've been easy to schedule and work with and respond quickly to e-mails. When I come home my little dude is always happy, well fed, and has plenty of water in his dish. If I wasn't moving far away, I'd definitely continue using their service. If you're looking for a pet sitting service, this is the one you should choose.
