I am so happy I found Never Alone Pets!! My catsitter fell through last minute for a weekend trip…read morelast week and Dami was a lifesaver. She responded to my initial email request from their site pretty quickly and then was SUPER responsive. She came on a really short notice to meet my two cats and grab a set of my keys and I felt comfortable after meeting her - she's super friendly and nice and seems to really love cats. I had her come twice over the weekend to feed and play with them (and do some light litterbox cleaning) and she could not have been better! Each visit was $25 all in and she keeps you updated with texts and photos and even videos. It was really nice to see my cats in action while I was missing them and see how well taken care of they were. Dami even cleaned and washed their food bowls without being asked! She was super personable and a huge animal lover and I'll definitely be using her for future cat sitting visits :)

We are SO lucky to have an Aunt Jan for our little kitten. During this past Thanksgiving holiday,…read morewe had to board our 5 month old kitten (much to our chagrin) while we were traveling cross country. However, we couldn't have had better care, with a cooler person, or with any more attention. Jan took our little one on as her own and sent updates daily and was readily available to answer any question we had. She truly saved our butts. Jan is The. Best. She is everything you could want from a cat caregiver and more. I'm lucky to have found someone who considered our kitten to be just as good as her own personal animal. Not only is Jan extremely reliable, but she has also become a friend. It is a treat to work with Jan. She is the best in the biz.

Usually, I'd have family check in on our fuzzy baby but that family member has moved outta NY. I'd never left a baby with anyone else before, much less for an extended period of time. Came on Yelp, compared some reviews. Corresponded with a couple of places. I got the absolutel BEST vibes from Jan. I had a ton of questions and she patiently answered all of them. She genuinely cares about the fur babies, y'all! While we were away, Jan kept us abreast of how our baby was doing with emails and photos. If you need a fur baby sitter, someone you can trust to give your baby/ies the sweetest care, I hiiiighly recommend Jan!

I have been using Bark and Bone for workday dog walks for about 4-5 months. They are very flexible,…read moreresponsive and reliable, and the app makes scheduling, communication and payment simple! They have really gotten to know our pup and always communicate if anything seemed out of the ordinary during their time with him (irregular stool, decrease in energy, didn't want to eat, etc.) I've always felt comfortable leaving our pup in their hands. My favorite part of this service are the reports that get sent with a note about the walk and pictures! It always brightens up my day. I would 100% recommend this service.

It gives us such peace of mind knowing she's in such good hands. You can tell right away how much he truly cares for the animals he works with.

Highly, highly recommend!

All I know is that my dog comes home happy and exhausted. Richard is reliable and quick to communicate, making last minute walk requests easy.

Igor, Jennifer, and the team are so responsive and clearly care about our pups…read more We have two rescue dogs and B&W walks both of them on weekdays for an hour. One of our dogs was extremely fearful when we adopted her a few years ago. After a lot of work with multiple great dog trainers, play therapy, and eventually an SSRI, she improved a lot. But after we started her on walks with Igor and the team, she's gained even more confidence, is happier, and it's so noticeable. Also, when I was interested in making sure we could reinforce what Igor was doing on their walks, he went out of his way to show me what he does, and took us on a walk with the dogs to give us experience. Could not recommend them enough.

Rates are reasonable , dog walkers are friendly and do a great job giving your dog a nice long walk .

She is a timid cat with a…read morelot of fears and some very specific quirks -- like not being able to be left alone overnight -- that past in-home sitters have ignored, leading us to be stressed and upset on trips and our cat even more so. We haven't had a single trip that's gone without major issues because of sitter neglect and lack of care. We decided to try boarding to help with our cat's separation anxiety and we still can't believe how well it went. Communication and expectations were open and clear, and the sitter went above and beyond to make sure our cat felt safe and cared for, even with her timidity and fears. She did so much to ease her anxiety and help her in the stressful situation of unfamiliarity and interrupted routine. It was a dream come true to find someone like this. I was also reassured by concluding a contract with the company, which clearly stipulates all provisions of the boarding and when we'll receive updates/photos, etc. It eased our minds so much compared with past experiences when communication was totally sporadic despite someone living in our home. We will absolutely book through them in the future. Their professionalism and dedication were so appreciated!

As everyone who owns cats already knows, you cannot introduce cats like this. And how did I find out? The cat was in the background of the update photo she sent on night one. I insisted on a full refund and rightfully received it, but have heard absolutely nothing from management (Ed), no apology from Anna B who "didn't know what the big deal was" and got zero responses to my two emails. Very disappointing experience. I cannot speak for other sitters or managers, but based on my experience I'd recommend choosing another boarding company!
