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!!

With new jobs that required us to commute into the city instead of work from home, it was such a relief to find them. From the moment we started working with Catherine and her team I felt that my dog was well taken care of. We use Beantown five times a week, and they've always been accommodating to our schedules (if we need two walks a day, for example). Additionally, I know that if I ever needed overnight care that they offer that service. What's even better? They LOVE our dog and it shows. They are so caring and loving to her and I trust them completely! The team at Beantown goes above and beyond to make sure she is cared for. One time when honey got a little scratch on her face they offered immediately to take her to the vet for us. Their service is impeccable. They are responsive, fairly priced, and so kind. I love following their Instagram handle to see daily photos and videos of my dog playing with others, too. I 10/10 recommend Beantown for your dog if you are in the Boston area! We love them!

The team made our two kitten's first year and a half of life with us even better by showing up when we were away. The team made our babies feel safe and loved, played with them, cleaned them out, and sent us photos each day with a brief update on how they were doing. You can always tell the difference when a cat feels comfortable that you've been away vs when they feel abandoned and grumpy. We never, ever had grumpy cats when we got home. I can't recommend City Kitty enough!

Ariel found my wallet today on the street outside my apartment complex and took it upon herself to try and drive around and find me. She ended up at my old address about 15 min away from my current place, and not only refused to let me come to her but drove over to me immediately. This all probably took a good chunk of about 45 minutes to an hour out of her Saturday. She didn't know this but I'm headed out of the country today and would have lost my collective marbles when I found out that my wallet is missing. I cannot say enough good things about the type of person that would go out of their way to do this, especially one who is placed in a position of trust and responsibility over the most important furry members of your family. I am so grateful and impressed and will absolutely be booking Ariel when I need cat sitting in the future!

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!
