Taylor from "Happy Tayls" Is amazing! She takes extraordinary care of Roxie! It's very clear to see how much Taylor loves dogs, and the wonderful care that she gives to all of her furry guests. When I have to go away and leave Roxie... I'm able to do so and feel like she is in great hands! I won't trust my little girl to anyone else! I very highly recommend HAPPY TAYLS whether it's for daily doggie day care, or when you have to go away and can't take them with you. Whenever I tell my Roxie that she is going to see Taylor, she gets very excited and can't wait to go and see her and her loving staff! Woof woof ( that's Rox saying she will see you soon Taylor! )

I've been sending my Bernese Mountain dog Bubba to Happy Tayls since he was 3 months old. He is now…read more1 years old. He goes with Taylor (owner of Happy Tayls) half days, full days and overnights. Bubba loves going to Happy Tayls he gets along with all the dogs that are there. There is a variety of dogs and when Bubba comes home he is exhausted from playing with his buddies. He especially loves Taylor's dog Butters. Taylor is very good with the dogs and she seems to connect with each and every dog. Her services are so convenient for myself and my husband. We both work shift work and Taylor picks Bubba up whenever it's needed. I highly recommend Happy Tayls to whomever needs doggie daycare/ overnights/ full days or half days. Happy Tayls will be the best decision you could ever make for your dog when looking for a doggie daycare! Sincerely, Caroline Camp

Mark is such a nice guy! He came for the initial Meet-and-Greet and he really listened to what I…read morehad to say about my dog's wants and needs. He even wrote specific things down which I think really speaks of his character and shows his pride in his business. I knew I could trust him to care for my pup while I was away from home. Mark has a very calm demeanor and friendly personality; very easy to talk to and my dog LOVES him. I am not an easily trusting person so I thought handing over my house key to a stranger would be difficult but it wasn't at all! You'll see when you meet him. I wholeheartedly recommend Mark as a pet sitter. You and your pet will be glad you met him.

The facility is great. Very clean. They are doing great things for these dogs. However…read more... Back in May, we had a terrible experience at NGAP because of the adoption coordinator. She was rude, unprofessional, and has us wondering if we even want to move forward with an adoption. After spending a few months walking the dogs, we decided to pursue an adoption, so we set up an appointment to come meet some of the dogs in the profile room. After we made the appointment with the coordinator, we encountered a hiccup on the settlement of the house we we were in the process of purchasing. This was not something we shared with her, since it was personal. Instead of cancelling the appointment, we decided to keep the appointment to find out more information about the adoption process and spend some time with the greyhounds without their leashes and muzzles. During the entire meeting, she was unprofessional, abrasive, and generally disinterested in our appointment. She projected an attitude that our presence was an inconvenience while she fielded personal phone calls and chatted with other NGAP staff. After spending about a half hour with the dogs, she asked us about a deposit. We told her we thought it would be best to wait since we had some things that we needed to smooth out. She immediately became nasty with us by raising her voice and telling us she would NOT show another dog without a deposit. We understood and told her we did not expect her to do so. She continued her adversarial rant which caused us to walk out on her. The coordinator was specifically upset that according to her, we "wasted her time." That comment was especially insulting as we are very serious about adopting. It was also our understanding that as the adoption coordinator this was exactly the type of appointment she is responsible for scheduling and performing. Instead of becoming irate, she should have appreciated our caution in an effort to prevent a failed adoption. After leaving NGAP, we decided that we would not be returning. Instead, we did our research and found another adoption program worth our time. Rather than going back to NGAP which is extremely convenient for us, we chose to drive an hour away multiple times. Our adoption process did not fail at NGAP because of our settlement issues, but rather because we had a terrible experience with personnel. Such a shame, one of those dogs could've had a great life ahead.

I live in Chicago and I adopted a puppy over an hour away from Philadelphia. I needed someone to…read morepick him up and meet me at the Philadelphia airport so that the puppy could fly back with me. I contacted Sitters4Critters and they quickly responded with questions and shortly there after with an estimate. Once I decided to utilize their services, Sitters4Critters were in constant communication with me finalizing all the arrangements. On the day of the transport, they confirmed they picked up the puppy and were waiting for my flight to arrive. They headed to the cell phone lot to walk him and try to feed him. I texted them when my flight landed and shortly afterwards met them and my new puppy! And the following morning they contacted me to ask how my flight home with the puppy went. Extremely pleased with their communication, transport service, and caring gentle handling of my puppy. I highly recommend Sitters4Critters!!
