Can't say enough good things about the Pooped Pooch! We came to them right after I adopted my dog,…read moreTubbs, and he was a nervous mess with no training and a million other problems. Daycare was not his favorite thing but I kept having him attend, once a week to build his socialization and have an outlet without me. After going to daycare once a week for months, he finally had a switch flip and absolutely LOVES daycare. He knows on Tuesday mornings he has to get ready early and spends the entire drive there with his tail wagging excitedly. This once very anxious and unsure pup now looks forward to playing and "going to school". He is always worn out and sleeps for like 2 days straight after attending. Tubbs also has a lot of allergies and needs special attention to those medical things. They make sure he never comes even near any of his allergies and i fully trust he is getting great care. Whenever we do an overnight stay, they make sure he takes all his meds, update me on his visit and has lots of fun playing. We love the pooped pooch and are totally of the belief that everyone should be going to doggy daycare - especially them if you live in the dorchester area!!

Dorchester Dog Walking is the BEST. They took care of our rescue dog, Brewster, for over 3 years…read more It was awesome because two of our neighbors also used Dorchester dog walking so Brewster would get group walks with his pals. Elle is unbelievably organized and super responsive. We 100% trusted her and her team. We used their dog walking and boarding services. The pictures and updates for every walk are amazing. We recently moved and we miss Dorchester Dog Walking! We have not found an equivalent in our new town yet. Don't hesitate to book with them! Seriously couldn't recommend them more.

They've helped us since day one with training, puppy walks, socializing, and just making sure our dog gets out and about as much as he should with our work schedules.

Most importantly, our dog is always so so excited and happy on his walks.

We have been using Kevin and the MyDot.Dog team for over a year and could not be happier…read more Kevin and his team are true animal lovers and take such care of our two boxers. They go above and beyond what we have experienced with other services. Getting them out for a good walk that lets them deplete some energy is something that we can always count on. This is far different from other companies where the walkers are walking/texting and not truly interacted with your dog. Kevin is their bud! Also, our pups can be challenging on leashed walks. Kevin using training techniques during the arrival/walk and we have noticed great improvements on the last year! Plus, we get great photos and a daily recap of the walking route, distance, and how things went. If you are looking for a highly dependable, skilled animal lover--hit up MyDot.Dog!

They are the most thoughtful and caring group. I come home to a happy dog, a detailed note about their walk, and even receive cute pictures from their walks each week. Sometimes, they take her on group walks so she can socialize with other dogs. If there is ever an issue (my sweet girl occasionally gets curious about what fragrant things are lurking in the covered trashcan), they text me right away. I know they love my dog just as much as she loves them. I am so happy to have found Theresa and Bark to Basics!

I tell everyone I know about our fantastic experiences with Paul. When he watched our cat during our two weeks away for our wedding and honeymoon, he kept a journal (written in her voice) of every one of his visits. We loved reading it when we came home! He played with our cat every day, kept her water and food fresh and filled, and kept everything around the house tidy for our return. Paul is the kind of pet-sitter that will take the kitty trash out every day to keep our house from smelling and sweep the floor to keep litter from building up. His attention to detail and thoughtfulness keep us coming back to Tuckered Mutts every time we're away. I don't know what we ever did without them. Thank you, Paul!
