Dog Boarding in Minotola, NJ

“Danielle did an excellent job with my two fur babies. She took care of them as if they were her own. They are very nervous babies but Danielle seems to have the secret on how to make them less anxious and to become comfortable in her home. Infact I was told my Junie did not want to leave! She fed them like we discussed and took ample amount of photos and videos. My husband and I usually don't take vacations that often but we really enjoyed ourselves knowing they were in good hands. I would like to thank Danielle and her family again for a job well done and I would recommend her anytime.”

“I was a little nervous at first to take my pup to a person that I truly didn't know. We did the meet and greet a few days before the stay. Rebecca was charming her house was charming and her pups were absolutely great! I dropped off my dog on Friday morning. Every evening until I picked him up, I received pictures and updates of his day. He looked absolutely happy and had a mini vacation of his own. I can't recommend Rebecca enough! She is knowledgeable, loving, caring, and fun! I will definitely be using her for future vacation boarding.”

“Rebecca did a great job watching my dog! While we were gone, they stayed in contact with us and sent pictures and videos. My dog seemed very happy and comfortable at their home.”

“I'm not sure who had a better time, Kim or Sugar!!!! Sugar was relaxed when I picked her up, unlike when she gets boarded. Definaltely will use Kim in the future when I leave town. I appreciated the pictures and updates that I received during her stay.”

“Steven is an absolutely fantastic host! He treated our sweet girl with genuine love and affection. Great communication and above and beyond service!”

“Thank you for taking such good care of Nugget! He seemed to feel right at home. Will definitely use you again! Loving care in a loving home. 🥰”

“I could not be happier with Kristen. I’m so thankful for her and her family, and how kind they are to my Khloe. They are true Boston Terrier lovers, which makes her especially knowledgeable. She is a godsend.”

“She was really good with communicating. I messed up the reservation date and thank goodness she was able to accommodate and make the changes for me. I requested this late in the evening and she responded promptly. She sent me pictures of gizmo and answered my questions and concerns. She had a car and dog and I was nervous because my dog prefers humans. I took his crate for him to have a safe space and she said he def used it, although he did well For the brief moment of interaction he has with her animals. She kept her dog away from mine so no issues occurred and I appreciate that. I will def use this service again in the future. I have boarded my dog before and I could never get ahold of the place, they didn’t really provide updates and he came home Smelly from being around so many other animals. Gizmo came home not smelly and was happy to see us. This was nice affordable and so easy to find someone last minute. Will def use this service again!!”

“Chelsea is so good with our lab Obi. Every time he comes back home happy and tired from all the fetch he plays. She is very sweet and professional, very quick to respond. I love updates and pictures of him while we are away. Highly recommend.”

“Sherlynn is super friendly and took great care of my dog. She sent pictures and updates every day and answered all my questions quickly. I'll definitely use Sherlynn again.”

“Buffie has a strong professional background in animal care, but even more importantly, her love and passion for animals of all kinds is self-evident. We haven't had many opportunities to socialize our one-year old dog due to covid, so we were very happy for him to stay with Buffie for the weekend and experience time with other dogs. She has a large fenced-in field just for the dogs to enjoy for outside play time. He felt so at home with Buffie he never even missed a meal! She is attentive and even advised me about how to maintain his ear health as a poodle, and the additional grooming options to keep his ear hair under control. We are lucky to have found Buffie, she is a gem.”

“Carrie was wonderful! My dog, Murphy, seem to really enjoy staying at her home. Carrie sent me pictures throughout our time away showing me that Murphy was having a good time. This made us feel very good. Drop off and pick up were very easy and I would highly recommend Carrie to anyone who’s looking for a dog sitter.”

“Cate is amazing. She took such good care of our pup and he had such a good time with her and her family. She sent updates multiple times a day with lots of pictures and I could tell she really cared for our boy and made sure he had a great stay. We’ll definitely be bringing him again.”

“Just picked up our senior rescue Daisy from her first overnight stay (2 nights) away from us in the 11 months since we adopted her. We were nervous at first about leaving her in an unfamiliar setting but everything went very well. Donna is AWESOME! She sent pics regularly, texted updates and asked questions when there was something she was unsure of. Great communication, attention to detail and Donna went out of her way to be sure Daisy was comfortable, had plenty of walks, etc. Highly recommend!”

“This was our first experience with Rover and lauren had great reviews! And she and her husband were available to take our labs for the day and bring them back to us . And they were fabulous with them and I will definitely use them again . Sent us pics through the day ! Five stars ⭐️”

“Ashley is an angel on earth. She loves and care for my pup like he is her own. She sent picture and video updates often!! She even was flexible with flight delays, taking a lot of stress away for me. Cannot recommend more!!!!”

“Our 15-year-old mini labradoodle enjoyed his time with Lauren and Matt. He was well cared for, and he loved his walks in the woods. Lauren and Matt provided a cozy home during Scout's first time away from family and friends. We were appreciative of the daily photos they sent. Lauren and Matt took great care of our senior dog, and we highly recommend them for a stress-free home away from home.”
