    A fantastic place to shop and a truly paws-itive environment for me and my pup! I was thoroughly impressed by the care and dedication from David, the pet trainer, and the grooming team, who did a phenomenal job with my Shadow.

    I've always had great experiences at this store. It's clean, well stocked, and the employees are super friendly. Sal the groomer is a super star-- always patient and understanding with our chow chow Kiki. We decided to start grooming her ourselves because Saugus is a bit far for us & Kiki is stressed out around strangers / new environments, but Sal was always patient and forgiving when we did see him. We also did a puppy socializing class with Ana when Kiki was about 6 months old. She already knew the tricks that were taught, but it was great for getting her used to being around other dogs in a controlled environment. Ana even let us come in one day to make up a class we missed after the "graduation date" had already passed.

    LEAKING bag with three Yoyo Loaches (fish) with almost NO WATER, just put into another bag by an employee.

    DON'T BUY FISH HERE - My husband and I have many aquariums and love to go to PetSmart and find new animals to add to our tanks! Lately however, there has been a lack of care about the fish and how they are handled. We bought three yoyo loaches, and the woman dropped one of them on the GROUND. Poor baby. We are so worried about if it will even survive a day. Then she put them in a bag with no water (pictured), and it had a hole. She then just put in another bag (which is now filling with water while draining water from the fish). It's cruel to the fish, and we feel sad bringing them home with no water, which seems to be a regular problem lately with every store we go to. FILL UP THE BAG. It's hard to want to support these stores when the people who are supposed to be caring for these animals don't even give them basic needs or comfort. It's not hard to fill up a bag with water. It's like giving your dog a few pieces of kibble and not filling up the bowl. It's just laziness and lack of care, or knowledge. Do better. This is not okay. If you care about aquatic animals, do not go to this store.

    I bought five toys for my dog. It was by three get two free. They asked me if I wanted to donate five dollars and I said yes. So my bill went from $71-$91 because they gave me the five dollar donation for free and charged me for the fifth toy that I bought for my dog that was supposed to be free. If they do this everyone, their company makes millions of dollars and people just being generous bad business.

    Uneven ears, overall sloppy grooming.

    Just the worst $83 dollars I ever spent. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall to see the circumstances that produced this wreck of a grooming session. Please see photos and details.

    Normal grooming done by experienced groomer. NOT from petsmart

    First time & Last.....I took my 2 standard poodles to be groomed here because my groomers was booked out for 3 weeks and I wanted the boys to be cleaned up before Thanksgiving. What a mistake! I can't even begin to tell you how disgusted I was when I seen my poor boys. When dropping off they ask you what you want...I told her exactly what I wanted she even wrote it down. I said clean face & feet, leave poof on tail and small poof on head. Seriously it was nothing fancy at all. I could have done a better job then what this lady did to my boys. I was disgusted when I seen them. Hair sticking out all over the place, some areas looking like the razor didn't even touch it. Totally cut his tail down to skin, nothing left, no poof on head, hair all over feet like they didn't even shave them! Like WTF.... She said his tail was matted, she had to... Well don't you think I should have received a phone call asking me before you did something I specifically ask you to leave? I mean if you take your child for a hair cut and she has tangles are you going to shave her hair off her head or do what you can to fix the problem? This lady ruined both my dogs hair, to some this may not be a big deal but for a poodle owner this is HUGE. This cut would have been the holiday cut for xmas pics etc. My dogs look so bad, Im embarrassed. The manager did refund me my money but that is NOT the point here. I would have preferred to pay full price and walk away with normal looking poodles. This Christine person should NOT take on dogs she can't handle. Clearly she has NO experience with grooming poodles. Thanks for ruining our holidays... Pictures below show how horrible the cut was and how sad they look after getting botched...... Also included what they normally look like so you can see the difference.

    First time getting my pup groomed at petsmart! Jen was our groomer and took amazing care of olive! Love her haircut- highly recommend Jen!

The staff are all amazing and do so well with the dogs - you can tell they are passionate about taking care of the pups. They're also extremely nice and accommodating. I can tell they really love my pup. My dog is a little guy and he loves playing with the big dogs, and I trust he is safe in river dogs hands. He plays the entire time he is there, he comes home exhausted which I appreciate added a long busy day I love that they're open 6 am- 7pm - it's handy for my long days at work. There's always street parking available too. Definitely recommend River dogs if you are looking for a day care for your pup! The price is also pretty good compared to other day cares in the area/cambridge!

Dogs for Days is none of these things. It checks all the boxes you need: clean, affordable, safe, staff that loves your baby like they're one of their own pups, 24/7 staffing, and CAGE FREE -this one is really important because there are a lot of places that advertise hotel suites for your dogs but honestly those are just fancy-looking kennels... great if your pup is into that and is comfortable sleeping alone, not so great if your pup is used to snuggling with you in bed - ANYWAY, I digress. We started at Dogs for Days when our puppy was about 9 months old, and when it was still Paws Up - our doggie loved it, we liked it but we weren't thrilled. We were thinking about switching to another daycare when Nick and Michelle took over. Katie, one of the staff, told us that these new owners (whom we hadn't met yet) were amazing and truly dog lovers. Okay we thought, let's stick around and see how this turns out. THANK GOD THAT WE DID. In the last 4-5 months, Nick and Michelle have created a place that we honest to God would be lost without. They, and their staff, go above and beyond to make sure that you feel 200% comfortable leaving your dog with them for a few hours to a few days (or more!). They will text you pictures, give you updates, email you, facetime you, whatever you need when you're away from your baby. Unfortunately this year our puppy Mila turned 1 the same weekend we had to be out of town. What did Dogs for Days do? Well I'll let you look at the pictures and see for yourself - birthday bandana, a handmade birthday sign, and constant updates to let us know that she was having a wonderful time. These are the types of little things they'll do that are truly wonderful. They didn't need to do this but they did it because they knew how much it meant to us - probably more than it meant to Mila haha I've personally seen Michelle work with a family who had a dog with a disability to help them socialize the pup and make sure he (or maybe she) has a happy and well-socialized doggie life. Could they have just turned the family away as so many other daycares would do? Probably, but they didn't and that's what matters. When a dog in the area that they knew went missing, Nick was out there every day helping to find him (don't worry they found him so it's a happy ending!). My point is that it's very hard to find people who understand your connection to your dog(s). Dogs, cats, other pets...they're family. And when you have to leave them for work or a weekend or for whatever reason, you want to feel like they'll be treated like family. We leave Mila during the week week knowing that she is going to have a great time, that if something happens she'll be in good hands, and that she's happy - which makes us happy. We leave her for longer periods - weekends - knowing that she can sprawl out on a couch or bed surrounded by other dogs and most importantly, A PERSON. We know that she won't be scared in a kennel all by herself, and that if something goes wrong there is always someone there for her. Although full disclosure I still cry every time we have to leave her. If you're anything like us (and I suspect you are if you've read this very long review about a doggy daycare), then your dog is like your baby and Dogs for Days is the best for your baby.

I can't imagine how we would have managed juggling our cat and our travel schedule all these years without her. Our guy, Tank, has spent many nights happily ensconced at The Cat's Pajamas where he enjoys spying on the comings and goings from the privacy of his own condo. Yes, we could leave him at home with a cat sitter popping by once or twice daily, but our dude is very social and gets lonely easily. Plus, he is a bit high-maintenance and Patty doesn't bat an eye at his extreme neediness. (LOL) Bottom line: Patty is a total pro. She is caring, considerate, and communicative. She keeps a close eye on her charges and intuits exactly what they need. I just can't say enough good things about her. If you want the best place possible to board your beloved cat, look no further.

Not only is it a very clean and calm environment, it is so clear that Patty cares for each cat and their needs. Their "condos" have levels for them to explore, each with their own box, and privacy curtains for cats who need more time to adjust to the space. Patty sends an email the day after drop off and throughout their stay to let you know how your cat is adjusting and eating. We all know how hard it can be to have to leave your cat and take them out of the comfort of their home. Knowing how well cared for they are with Patty makes doing so much easier. I could not recommend Cat's Pajamas Inn more highly!
