1. Matthew P.
“Matty has been very communicative, flexible, friendly, and most importantly great with Teddy Bear :) Best of all, he came highly recommended by people in whom I have complete confidence with regard to Teddy Bear's care, so I was able to have total peace of mind when I dropped Ted with him for the first time. Thank you, Matty!”
2. Nicholas P.
“Nicholas looked after our dog Toby (schnauzer, 7 years old, male) for the day. He was super communicative throughout and clearly hit it off when they met for the first time. I was so grateful to know that Toby was in good hands with Nicholas. I highly recommend Nicholas and will definitely reach out again :)”

5. Joanna N.
About: I have always been part of a dog-loving household. I truly believe pampering your pet is the only way to repay them for their unconditional love. Neighbors/friends have always relied on me to walk, play and love their pets like my own. Three years ago I became a mom to the best golden retriever so I am comfortable with puppy training. I ensure that every pups experience is exactly what they need. I work long hours in an office Monday through Friday afternoon so I like dedicating my weekends entirely to my pet and yours! I am available Fridays after 5:00 PM (totally ok with late pick ups/drop offs) through Sunday nights (late night pick ups are fine with me). I live in a pet friendly building. I have a sweet golden retriever eager to be friends with your fur baby! We have a small fenced patio and a larger building patio we can access for some weekend fun. There are two dog parks nearby for some extra zoomies if you're into that! I am comfortable crating your pet if you prefer otherwise the whole apartment is their playground.
6. Pat C.
“Pat was very patient with all my over explaining of our dogs’s care needs. I wrote up some guidance on what she needed and it was clear that Pat read through our requests and confirmed his understanding. Pat sent updates and pictures during our dog’s stay so that we knew she was doing well.”
7. Maria-Helena S.

9. Michael Y.
“Michael took great care of my boy! Lots of play and attention; he came home tired out in the best way. Even gave him a brushing! He was also willing to be flexible with my uncertain timing, which was much appreciated. I would book with him again, no question.”
10. Brianne B.
“Brianne and her husband took great care of Birdie! We dropped her off for daycare on Saturday. They were extremely responsive and ensured a smooth transition for both drop off and pick up. Birdie came home happy and exhausted! They definitely made sure she was exercised and cared for.”

14. Sonja T.
“Sonja has been pivotal in the early development of my puppy. She is supporting me in achieving goals for increased positive socialization with a variety of other dogs and people. I’m so pleased with my puppy’s overall wellbeing and social growth. Thank you so much for being a member of Team Winnie Bear!!!”
15. Mazen Y.
“Mazen has watched a number of my dogs (over the years) at his house. It is great to have someone who will watch two dogs. I use him for overnight and extended stays when I am out of town. Not only does he treat them my dogs like his own, but he also keeps in great communication throughout the stay with pictures. They are so excited to see him when I drop them off! I recommend Mazen 100%.”
16. Alexis A.
“My husband and I show Chesapeake Bay Retrievers and Ali has been a big help watching our dogs for years. Our dogs are high energy and she makes sure they get all the exercise they need. Ali has cared for our puppies and adult dogs and I always know our dogs are well taken care of when she is with them.”
17. Clare L.
“Clare was great with Oreo! She was easy to coordinate with and she helpfully let me know when he was slow to eat (which is normal for him). I appreciated her paying such good attention to him and taking great care of him.”
18. Marc G.
“Marc was awesome!! Our dog has a lot of anxiety and reactivity and he took those issues in stride and followed our instructions. Also super professional and provided updates.”
19. Stephanie & Shawn A.
