After several attempts to find a reliable and trustworthy sitter for Bushel & Peck, our two senior…read morecats, another highly rated but fully booked sitter recommended Jennifer. Jennifer made a great impression at the introductory visit during which--in her personable, calm and mature manner--she paid careful attention to an avalanche of explanations and caveats (self-avowed control freak here!). Subsequently, we used Jennifer's services on short day excursions as well as two-week overseas trips, sometimes on relatively short notice. Our girls have some digestive and other health issues and are on a complex schedule of oral medications and supplements, so it was very comforting to know that Jennifer was able to spread her three daily visits well over the day to ensure even spacing between meals and meds. She reliably provided us with updates and was always very responsive to questions or comments from our end. Her photos allowed us to see in real time how our shy girls became more and more relaxed and comfortable in her presence. We are relocating out of state next month and I very much hope that we will be able to find a cat sitter as reliable and caring as Jennifer. I recommend her wholeheartedly!

River dog is amazing. My dog looooooves it here. He literally knows when we're in the car that…read morewe're going to day care and he runs towards the door - he hears his friends barking and is eager to join them to play! 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!

Finding a daycare for your furbaby that FEELS right is tough: some are too expensive, some are too…read moremuch like a kennel, some have facilities that you don't like, some do a lot of crating, some are poorly staffed, the list is endless... 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.

We were going on vacation and we sent them there for 10 days and I was so worried Because they have never been to daycare/boarding or even a dog park. A lot of people don't like the breed of our amazing dogs so we were always hesitant to bring them anywhere. Bill took them in with open arms! And they were always together which we liked.. they hate to be separated. Haha. Although they were happy to be home, I think they were a little depressed Because they missed all their new "doggie friends" lol. Big Daddy doggie Daycare will now be in our weekly routine! Absolutely 100% recommend this amazing place!

Just today I she was sleeping and I asked her if she wanted a treat. Normally, she'd bound over and beg without my asking. This time she only wagged her tail in response. :-) Leslie is wonderful, very knowledgeable about dogs and their temperaments, and very attuned to the safety of her doggie-friends. As an added bonus, she sends me pictures and videos from the hike via text to share with my daughter. I highly recommend!

The other 2 reviews really hit the nail on the head in terms of describing the great care and attention to detail that Sue and Sol offer. Also, Sue takes great pictures that are always comforting to see when away from your pet for a long time. They have gone above and beyond every time we've utilized their services. Our cat sheds A LOT due to his medical condition, so they vacuumed the apartment even though we never asked or expected them to. Sue also made a homemade cat toy for him, which he loves. I highly recommend Furry Friendz.

Our pets are like our children, and it's important for us to have them well cared for when we're at work or away. With Furry Friendz, we knew they were going to receive the most excellent care. As soon as Sol and Sue came to our apartment to meet our cats and dogs, we knew they were something special. They put our sometimes skittish animals at ease immediately. They asked us so many questions and were interested in every tiny detail about our animals' likes and dislikes. We have a lot of complications with our animals- a dog who is fussy about his food, a cat with a brain tumor, medicine that has to be administered... the list goes on and on. Furry Friendz took in all the information and got up to speed quickly on exactly what our animals need to feel happy and comfortable. They put our minds at ease and we felt confident knowing they would be caring for our pets. Our pets love Furry Friendz and they have so much fun spending time with them. Sol and Sue give us a full report about the visit and send us pictures of the animals playing and on their walks. We've noticed that they always seem to go the extra mile on their visits-- spending extra time and doing little things to make sure the visit is as fun for our pets as possible. We've had experiences with many pet sitting services and have often felt people were going through the motions and didn't really care about our pets. With Furry Friendz, we're confident that we have a team that loves animals, is really good working with them and always over-delivers on our expectations. This is a truly excellent service!
