When I try to take the big guy home he literally goes ape sh*t when seeing the staff. By the time we get home he's pooped and and ends up dozing off for the rest of the evening as opposed to his normal "i want attention give me attention now now now" attitude. So at the very least, I know he's being entertained well and getting lots of excercise/play time during his stay.

I even set him up him a large patch of grass out there. He's just not getting it. In comes Lori. She walks several dogs in the community that I live in and comes highly recommended. She's been a lifesaver for Toby! He has used the porch potty on a few occasions but he's not consistent. He'll hold it, but I feel bad making him wait all day. Lori is great with dogs. 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 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.

We were in a really tight spot - we were scheduled to go to Italy for a week, and one of our cats…read morehad just gotten quite ill and would need medication twice daily, which we felt would be too much to ask of a friend to try to administer. We got Stephanie's contact info from our vet, for whom she worked before starting her business. She got right back to me on the same day and asked to come over and meet the cats and get to know the layout of our apartment, which put me very much at ease. She recognizes that every pet is different, and it's important to get to know them and learn about them from their owners before trying to take care of them. She was also very respectful of our cats' behavior and didn't try to pressure them into interacting, and was familiar enough with the medications she'd be administering to recognize when it would be better to skip a dose than to freak out our sick cat further. By the end of the week, he was feeling MUCH better and had even come out for playtime, and our shyer cat - who comes out for almost nobody except us - had come out to visit and play as well! I can say all of this because she left us detailed, twice-daily notes as to her visits, and responded to texts as well (even with a six-hour time difference). When we got back, they were both bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and happy to see us, which tells me that they were glad to have her around. If we go out of town for a similar length of time (or even shorter, potentially), we will absolutely be asking Stephanie to take care of them again. Her pricing structure was also very reasonable (especially for the care we needed), and she broke down each and every cost for us before we signed the contract. I would absolutely recommend her to any and all anxious pet parents who are leaving town, or even if you just need somebody who's great with animals to look in on your furry friends and make sure they're fed and watered and happy. Stephanie was fantastic!

A great walk for the dog! Mark has such a love for all dogs! I would Definitely recommend!read more

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.

I had a similar experience to many of the other one-star reviewers. The biggest issue was the…read moreowner's attitude. She was consistently rude, dismissive, and unwilling to accept responsibility. Reading through the responses to negative reviews tells the story. Nearly every complaint is met with the same pattern: it's always the customer's fault, or she claims there's "no account under that name," implying the reviewer must have the wrong business. Instead of addressing legitimate concerns, she dismisses them and questions customers' credibility. Customer service starts with accountability, and unfortunately that was completely lacking here. Given the number of reviews describing the same experience, it's difficult to believe they're all mistaken, but I genuinely hope the dogs of Baltimore end up in places where both they and their owners are treated with respect.

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.

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.
