Doggy Day Care in Fern Rock

After contacting another sitter, I was discouraged. But Melony came through quickly with no hassle at the very last minute. She made sure i knew my baby was in good hands. I appreciate her services and plan to use them again. Thank you ✨️

This was my first time using this type of service. Kareema was amazing. My dog (Biko) always came home happy and tired. She always gave me updates on how his day was going with pictures. I would bring my dog to her every time.

It’s clear that Hoda loves her clients and takes great care of them! I received pictures and messages throughout the day which helped with my own anxiety over leaving him! Will definitely be using Hoda in the future, my boy loved spending time with her!

Yulia is wonderful with my dog. She makes sure to give several pictures and videos of Moxie while in her home. I can see how much Moxie is enjoying herself! I feel very lucky to have such a wonderful professional pet sitter for my pup.

Thank you T. Monee for dog sitting Shea. I appreciate your flexibility around my schedule and being attentive and kind to my pup. Monee shared several pics throughout the day detailing their walk and activities. She also asked questions and offered suggestions on tools to help with his walk and active lifestyle. Dogs can’t speak but let’s just say he gave Monee several hugs before departing. Thank you so much for a fun day for my boy.

Mary was amazing! For three days I dropped my dog off early and picked him up late. He was excited to see her day two so you know she took great care of him. She sent me lots of pictures and reported on his allergies for me! So incredibly sweet! Will definitely book again!

Oliver has been having a great time at weekly daycare! Rhea and her husband always send pictures and updates throughout the day. They are very reliable sitters and know he's in good hands.

So where do I begin and sorry for the rambling. Two weeks before my only son was to be wed, the Rover sitter that I selected months before the wedding which was going to watch my Archie and Rico canceled saying “something came up and that they were confident I had plenty of time to find someone else”. Months ago, there were plenty of sitters but not many in the two weeks leading to the wedding that met my criteria. My Rico who has chronic separation anxiety had not done well with two other sitters prior to the wedding. I needed a sitter that didn’t have children, and took only one client at a time because Rico was going to be a needy pup needing more attention. Prior to the wedding, I started doing doggy day care to get Rico assimilated. One sitter called me an hour into the sitting, telling me to pick him up because he won’t settle down (whimpering and some barks here and there), and she send me a video. Another sitter stayed with him for four hours but said she couldn’t watch him for the wedding (sitter had a toddler). After the two sitters and the cancellation, I knew it was going to take a special person or persons with patience and the time to be able to manage Rico’s anxiety. Now months ago, I had contacted Christie and Drew about watching the boys. They were my first choice because their reviews were outstanding, impressive, and impeccable. I didn’t realize that they took on other clients, so I backed out because I didn’t think it would be a good fit. I believed with Rico’s anxiety, it would be a sensory overload with other pups and because Rico would require more attention. I was afraid that if there were other pups and that if Rico started acting up, I would get that phone call during the dinner rehearsal or wedding to “come pick him up”. BIG MISTAKE, HUGE ON MY PART, on not going with my first choice with Christie and Drew. Being desperate, I went back for the reason I first contacted Christie and Drew, their impeccable reviews. Unfortunately, they only had the Friday available, the day of the dinner rehearsal. The boys were going to have to stay alone in the hotel on the wedding day, and all I could think about was all the barking and hotel management calling me to tell me come get your dogs. NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES, cue in Drew the dog whisperer. Not only did Christie and Drew watch the boys on Friday, they even made room for them on Saturday, the day of the wedding. Yes, Rico was still whimpering with some barks here and there, and on top of that Archie who is a very independent pup was acting off his brother’s energy and whimpering as well. But even with those hiccups, my Rico was taking naps on Drew the dog whisperer. If my face was an emoji, it would be the emoji with the brain exploding. When I saw the picture of Rico napping on Drew, my brain exploded. DON’T MAKE THE MISTAKE I MADE thinking that because your pup has extreme anxiety, he or she requires an environment with less distractions. It just takes finding the RIGHT PERSON/PERSONS that have the patience, love and empathy to manage the situation. My boys weren’t the perfect angels and had their anxiety moments, but Christie and Drew could not have been more professional and loving. Christie and Drew were able to do what the other sitters were not able to do, get Rico to play and take a freaking nap, a nap people! Rico, the pup that will cause a hole on your rugs walking back and forth, crying and barking took a nap, now I was the one ugly crying looking at the picture that they sent me of Rico taking a nap on Drew. Christie and Drew, I will always be indebted to you both for the loving care and patience you gave to my boys, especially with my Rico. Thank you for allowing me to sit back and be PRESENT during such an important occasion during my only son’s big day, his wedding. May all the good you put out in taking care of other peoples fur babies come back to you both in a multitude of blessings. Sincerely, Margarita and Miguel R.

Douglas is awesome with my girl Pebbles and all her energy. He's very thorough with details on how to tend to your loved one. We've used Douglas more than once and no doubt will use him again. Love the picture updates too.

Ceara is absolutely awesome!!!! She is kind and friendly. Bella love being with her. Bella will most definitely come back and hang out with Ceara a lot more.

Very first doggie daycare and Rover experience, and Quynh made it very easy. She was super responsive and provided photos and updates during the daycare. The booking process was easy and Quynh work with my schedule. The whole experience made me feel like Zuko was in great hands

Kristin was awesome and took great care of my golden retriever!

Hard to put into words how grateful I am for Serena. She truly goes above and beyond for the dogs she watches. I happened to come across her while looking for a one time sitter, for my usual was busy, and it was the best thing to ever happen to me. She quickly identified & worked with my 4 month old puppy on behavioral issues. She then proceeded to spend an hour of her own time when I picked my puppy up to talk with me and ease my mind over my pups behavioral issues. She gave me advice, resources, and information—but most importantly, she was simply there for me in an overwhelming time. Many updates and pictures were sent along the way -> communication 10/10. I cannot recommend her enough!!! She’s caring, educated, and extremely passionate about what she does.

Kiara was amazing with my puppy! We’re new to Philly and she graciously booked us last minute. My dog Sawyer was happy and sleepy when he got home! Kiara also sends pictures and videos throughout the day, so you are never out of the loop :) . Would highly recommend her services! I know Sawyer was in great hands with Kiara and will definitely be booking her again!

Sarah is amazing with Ducky! She’s a senior dog who needs extra care, and Sarah is incredibly attentive and gentle with her. I also get tons of photo updates throughout the day, so I always know how she’s doing. Highly recommend!
