From day one you can tell Joyce is dedicated to her services and will give you nothing but the best. She takes care of my dog and cat when I go on vacations and walks my dog while I'm at work. She sends me pictures of my fur babies to let me know how they are doing... (which is so comforting when I am missing them). I truly know they are well taken care of and Joyce gives them the love they need without them even leaving home. My dog and my parents dog absolutely adore Joyce. They get so excited when they hear her voice. She is so sweet and patient with them. I am so happy that I found comforts of home. ! - she provides texts after every visit (and pictures) letting me know how they are - So easy to get in touch with. She will text or call. - She is extremely flexible and understands the importance of a routine for my pets. - she is very patient with a crazy client like myself who makes last minute plans and schedules pet sitting last minute - she also does home sitting... if you want your house checked on, or the mail taken in. - affordable pricing Comforts of home has made my life easier knowing my pets are being taken care of by someone who is passionate about animals.

This is the third dog we have have been boarding at Warwick Pet Lodge over the past 30 years. All…read moreof them have always been ready to jump out of the car and run toward the "Puppy Hotel" as soon as we make the turn off Jefferson Boulevard! When we pull up into the parking lot our present dog, Honey, can hardly wait to run in to see Frank. I'm sure there are more extravagant places to board our dog; however, I'm also sure that none can beat the care and attention our dog gets while she's there! Cosmetics isn't everything. The kennel where our dog is kept is clean and is, I'm sure, washed down more than once a day. She is her own large cage and at the end of each cage is a door which Frank opens so the dogs can go out into the I own fenced- in run...I would say it is about 10 feet long and approximately 4 1/2 feet wide, so there is plenty of room for her to move around inside and plenty of room for her to play during her outside time. Not once, in all of the years we have been boarding our pets there have any of them ever come back with so much as a flee or any type of illness. As a matter of fact they seem to come home cleaner than when we dropped them off! Frank is usually always working around the back where the animals are boarded and always talks to the animals. This last time when we boarded Honey it had been over a year since she had been there, and Frank remembered her name and Honey ran toward him as though he were her long-lost friend! (So much for loyalty! LOL!) She went right in the back with him as if we had disappeared! !! Hmmm!!! I must say though that it always gives us a peace of mind knowing that she, (and our two other dogs that have now passed), actually love being boarded. Frank is very picky when it comes to which cats or dogs he will board. If your furry friend is over a certain age and has never been boarded, don't bother calling. I think that Frank may feel, and rightfully so, that if your dog is 5 years old and has never been out of your sight or boarded it is not fair to send him/her to a kennel for a week. I'm sure it could be a very traumatic experience. All animals have to be up-to-date with all of their immunizations and one must leave an emergency number or two and the animal's vet's name. We happen to take Honey to the vet that Frank's wife works with so that is a plus for Honey...she not only loves Frank but also his wife. Another great advantage is that Frank lives right upstairs so either he or the Mrs. are there 24/7. I find this to be very comforting. So if you are looking for a wonderful, caring place to board your pet, I feel that you can't go wrong with Warwick Pet Lodge! Oh just a little tip...when we first get our dog we get them used to being boarded by leaving them several times for a night or two on a weekend when we are home so they know we will be back for them. All of our dogs have been rescued from shelters and we don't want them to think they are being deserted again! That way when we leave them for longer periods of time they are all ready for their stay at their favorite home away from home!

The new provider, Korinna, has a beautiful (large) home in the Hope/Rochambeau area. Her house has a huge backyard with a lot of space to play, enclosed by tall fences and accessed by a dog door (which I had to "teach" my dogs to use, heh). There were a total of four dogs (two of mine, and two others) that weekend, and my dogs had a great time and were very tired out when I picked them up. Korinna was great about texting me to let me know how things were going throughout the weekend. After living in New England for awhile now I can say that their prices are are comparable to everywhere else, but for a better service (at a kennel your dog doesn't get to snuggle with anyone!). I would definitely recommend the Furry Fellas boarding services at either location.

They expanded their billing and seem to have no way of keeping track of payments. They are double billing people and refuse to fix it. Many of their clients are complaint of this issue. They are becoming less accommodating and the people that run their back office have the customers service skills of a pet rock. They keep repeating the same thing. They don't do what you ask. Their billing systems is screwed up and I would think twice before hiring them to care for your beloved pet. Maybe they are trying to recoup losses for covid 19. I tried to support this small business during that time. They surely do not appreciate it. My dog walker however is fabulous. I have endured for them. Not sure how much more I am gonna put up with.

Tomorrow is my dog Leo's last day with Paws in the Ville. We are moving this weekend and although we're excited to give Leo the yard and space he deserves, we're so so sad to have to say goodbye to Annie. I hope Annie knows how wonderful we think she is and how much we value her, but I wanted to take the opportunity before we left to sing her praises more officially. We've had several pack leaders in our almost three years with PITV and all have been fantastic, but Annie really feels like a member of our family. Not only does Leo love her, but I always enjoy when I get to see her and chat with her because she is such a bright, friendly person. And my one year old human baby lights up when Annie is here too! I always know that Leo is going to be safe and happy when he is with Annie, and her updates always feel so personal and like Leo is her favorite dog (even though I'm sure she makes all the dog parents feel like that). I know Annie loves Leo as much as we do and I think Leo knows that, too. I wish we could take Annie with us to our new town! It's going to be really hard to find a walker out there who lives up to the high standard that PITV has set. Thank you for being such a steadfast and reliable part of our time here in Somerville. We will miss you!
