They have a very attentive staff and lots of systems in place to deal with every type of dog behavior. I feel that my dog is safe there. Furthermore, I love the front desk staff! They are very kind, friendly, and communicative. They don't make you feel bad taking their time and they clearly know what's going on in the back areas where the dogs area. Their communication is tight and effective. They also always seem to have plenty of staff on duty. Even during high traffic times, I'm rarely left waiting more than a minute or two. The space is clean, well organized, and very customer (dog & human) friendly. I wouldn't go anywhere else! I forgot to mention there's a veterinarian clinic on the property

We like it here and use them every time we travel. I feel our dogs are safe and that's what's most…read moreimportant to us.

To "North Shore Dog", Thank you so much to the owner and staff that works there. I work with a dog…read morerescue as a foster parent and was in need of boarding for one of my foster dogs. We went with North Shore Dog, because I didn't want our foster to be placed in a kennel all day like other boarding places do, with little to no interaction. The staff here took great care of him as he had so much fun playing and interacting with other dogs and staff members, this I know from what I seen on the live web cames offered. He was able to spend all day with other dogs, learning how to play, interact, and follow a routine schedule offered at this facility. This structure is very good especially for a foster dog who is learning to trust, and become more confident to be adopted. Thank you once again, and you can see how happy you made this sweet guy.

The owner has an attitude, and that is why her staff is rude. I just boarded my dog there for 5…read moredays. She is a boxer breed, and I have found that the staff is vastly uneducated on Bully breeds. They keep trying to change her natural instinct due to there lack of education. It was frustrating to pick her up and here that the stuff was being hard on my dog when the way she plays is natural. I also have a major problem with the way they treat POST PANDEMIC DOGS. Most of the puppies born through COVID have high separation anxiety and the hotel doesn't really care if the owner has needs for the pet I was told to fill out my dogs medication chart before boarding which I did in full, and when I picked up my dog from boarding all of her medication, treats, and toys , had not been used at all. She was returned with the wrong dog bowls, and the owners were rude when asked to return them. I was told to not bring dog bowls for boarding . However I expressed my dog is post pandemic and suffers from anxiety so the idea of eating out of a bowl not her own she doesn't do. So I labeled the bowls and was told on DROPOFF it was fine. However on pick up day - they were lost ( they gave me two random bowls) and proceed to tell me to not bring bowls for the future I am disappointed in this place because I had faith with some of the employees but overall 4 employees have been rude , and when I met the owner today, she was rude to me 5 seconds into convo. If the owner is rude to customers , then so won't her staff be.

An update of my review from (gulp) 10 years ago! Patty at The Cat's Pajamas Inn continues to be a…read morelifesaver. 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!

I am really terrible about asking about a pet sitter last minute and she was always available even on that one occasion I asked only two days before we were scheduled to leave due to some last minute plans. She came in advance to meet our cat and our finicky girl took to her right away. She's sweet, professional, flexible, and took fantastic care of our cat over weekends and even 10 day vacations. I am an anxious pet parent and she sent regular photos of my cat to reassure me that my Bug was in good hands. Now, with all the coronavirus craziness, she is still checking in on her pets and making sure everyone is doing okay. Also, it's worth mentioning that her pricing is more than reasonable. Hire her to care for your pet and you won't be disappointed!

Molly has known him since he was a pup and has provided him with the affection he demands and the positive guidance he needs when his energy is over the top. Not only does Molly do a great job providing a safe and fun environment for by sweet boy--whether it be during walks, play dates, or daycare--she also works with him on some of his annoying habits (like jumping on people and stealing things) by using lots of positive reinforcement. I am an overprotective dog mom and I am so grateful that I never have to worry about Zuppa's wellbeing when he is in Molly's care. I don't know what we would do without her!
