Customer Reviews

Stow Road Pet Sitters is an incredible facility for daycare and boarding. Lori and her team work incredibly hard to make sure dogs get the best care, and truly care for the dogs as if they were their own. I confidently recommend her business to any clients who need daycare and boarding in Marlboro and the surrounding area. They even do drop in visits!

Our animals all love Lori and her team. Thanks Lori!

Lori and her team are incredibly thoughtful and accommodating, making our experience with Stow Road Pet Sitters wonderful. Lori treats each pet in her care as if they are her own. We trust her with our dog for both daycare and for overnight boarding and know that each time we drop him off, he is extremely well cared for. The staff sends regular communication and pictures when our dog is with them and it’s great to see our dog socializing and having fun! We found a true gem with Stow Road Pet Sitters and are so confident sending our dog there.

Our dog, Balto, stayed with Stow Road Pet Sitters for the first time. He usually doesn’t board well but with Stow Road Balto seemed very calm & happy upon pickup. Lori is very communicative and I felt very comfortable leaving my furry baby in her care

We were on a search for a kind, reliable, trustworthy border to send our Shiba Inu, Benny, to for an upcoming family vacation and we got so much more. We began daycare services with Lori about a month ago. The initial drop off for doggy daycare was a little overwhelming for Benny as he hadn't been in a group play setting with other dogs before. Lori was great to slowly introduce each dog one by one, and shortly thereafter, Benny warmed right up! Now as soon as we turn onto Lori's street for drop-off, Benny knows exactly where he's going and can't contain his excitement! We've also noticed that Ben is much calmer and better behaved at home. We highly recommend Stow Road Pet Sitters for anyone looking for services for their pet.

Lori is the best! I needed vacation home visit cat care-not just the normal food, water, litter care etc. –but both of my cats are on several medications which need to be given every 12 hours. She came for a few pre-visits to meet and get them comfortable with her (and she with them). During the vacation week, VERY attentive to them, their needs, my needs(!) and a bonus – I loved the visit reports including multiple pictures (and even videos) that were sent to me following each visit. Lori is very professional in all aspects of her care and love for animals, and I will definitely use her again.

Excellent daily pet care for our two dogs and pet conure while we went away for a few days! Also collected our mail, watered plants, etc. Great communication as well, with many regular updates, and questions asked promptly when called for. Highly recommended!

Lori took wonderful care of our dog while we were away and kept us updated with pictures and videos each day. We are super happy to have found such a great dog sitter who we can trust, and who makes our dog feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of any type of pet care services!

Sadly the services provided didn’t meet the services accepted. Said differently the arrival times were much beyond the agreed upon time range. Charges were made prior to service delivery which was not explained in advance and unexpected. Lastly the concerns were raised and the response was to blame the customer. She runs her own business and she runs her business how she wants. Word of caution to ask many questions up front and have low expectations.

I'm very pleased with the services offered by Lori and her team at SRPS. We had an initial meet & greet with her pup, got comfortable with some 1/2 day daycare visits and eventually overnight stays. Lori is very easy-going and communicative. It's nice to have such a wonderful service available and conveniently located to me. I'm already booked for another set of dates. Thanks!

Lori at Stow Road Pet Sitters is great! She has cared for my cat on several occasions and is very communicative. I enjoy the photos and videos she sends of my kitty while I'm away. Grateful for Stow Road Pet Sitters and their services. The care my kitty gets is top tier and I'm so glad to have found a reliable pet sitter for while I am away.

Lori has been wonderful to have walk our dog. We know she is in great care whenever Lori is there. Thank you Lori for everything!!

I'm so excited to have found Stow Road Pet Sitters. I have such a peace of mind knowing that Lori can come spend time with my dog Remy while I'm working. He loves his walks, and I feel so comfortable with her. She has great communication and provides lots of pictures and videos of their time together. I highly recommend her for your furbaby's needs.

Lori is a true professional and is reliable, and caring to our older pup. She works with us on scheduling which is sometimes last minute and always helps us out! I highly recommend !!!

Lori had a great process for handling our very old dog. We did a meet and greet and a doggy daycare before the boarding to be sure our guy was comfortable. It's been a very positive experience.

I'm so thankful to have found Lori and Stow Rd Pet Sitters! We don't go away often and our cat is not used to being along (especially overnight), so it's very hard for us to leave him. But knowing that Lori will be stopping in and taking care of him makes us feel SO much better! We know he is getting love, attention, and some play time - which helps us relax while not being there. Lori is professional and stays in constant communication with you (lots of pictures and videos too!) - I highly recommend her!

We had a great first experience working with Lori! We needed someone to watch our cat (last minute, I might add) and Lori was able to accommodate our request. She met with us beforehand, thoroughly going over all of our cat's needs. While we were away, she communicated with us every day and sent us pictures and videos. This was so nice to know that our fur baby was in good hands while we were away 🙂 We highly recommend working with Lori - she was very friendly and will take excellent care of your pet to make sure they are comfortable and feeling loved while you are away!

We wanted to switch from a large boarder to someone at a smaller scale for when we go on vacation and found Stow Road searching online. Lori clearly loves the animals in her care and I’ve never experienced such great communication with someone watching our dog, Lyra. I feel so confident in Lori’s care and it makes me so happy knowing Lyra is being so well cared for!

Lori took wonderful, thoughtful care of our cat while we were out of town - I highly recommend her!

Lori and family are now extensions of my family! Murphy (4yr Wheaten Terrier) has been so well taken care of and we love all of the pictures and updates that come along with his daycare visits and visits overnight stays. ❤️🐾

After months of searching, interviewing, trial runs, I finally found Stow Road Pet Sitters! My husband and I plan to do a bit of travelling in the next few years and although family has worked great in the past we wanted to A) ensure our pup was socializing with other dogs and B) have reliable care in place for week + long periods. We decided on Stow Road for a number of reasons - flexible day care to burn off some energy, boarding schedules that were not so rigid that I would be required to board for an extra 2-3 days at a time, and transparency when it came to the facilities, activities and care. In addition, Stow Road makes every effort to learn each dog’s personality and group ‘like’ dogs together when possible. We started with doggy dare care and after a just a couple of visits knew we had made the right choice. Our pup would not want to leave, be tuckered out the remainder of the day (sometimes into the next) and eventually knew where those morning car rides were bringing her. We are so happy to be comfortable with the care our pup will receive when we are away!

I contacted Lori at Stow Road Pet Sitters a month after we got our new pup Beau from Aruba. He is an energetic, sweet pup who needs to get his energy out every morning and we were looking for an opportunity to socialize him. He was super excited the first time he met Lori and her dog Harley. That was three months ago. We now have a monthly subscription for four days a week where Beau gets to play with all his buddies all morning, comes home relaxed and ready for a nap. It’s worked out perfectly for household where both parents work and we have two kids in school. Lori communicates often and provides pictures daily. Highly recommend!!

Lori watched both of our dogs while we were away for a week - one of them was a recent rescue. She was incredible!! She made sure both us and our dogs were comfortable with her, her family, her home, and the other dogs. She was extremely easy to communicate with and sent us pictures every day. It was like leaving our dogs with family. We would absolutely recommend Lori for any pet services and are excited to have our dogs go to daycare/sitting in the future!

Lori is amazing! It was our first time leaving our 1 year old chocolate lab and we were pretty anxious about it. Thanks to Lori, he acclimated quickly and made so many doggy friends! She was so good about sending us updates and photos. It really eased our mind knowing he was having fun and making other furry friends! Highly recommend and will definitely be utilizing her services in the future!

We had an amazing first boarding experience with Lori! Our pup is a super nervous guy and this was his first time being away from us, but Lori knew exactly how to care for him and make him feel comfortable. Lori was great about keeping us updated with daily texts and photos/videos. It was clear from all the photos/videos how much fun he was having! We are looking forward to setting up some daycare days so he can spend more time with Lori and play with more doggie friends!

We arranged for Lori to take care of our cats for a week after our former cat sitter moved away. Lori had big shoes to fill and she did so wonderfully. Our cats are senior cats, one requires medicine 2x a day, and both can be ornery (they are Siamese, after all) - Lori was absolutely fantastic with both of them. She sent daily updates and pictures and made sure that our house stayed in tip top shape while we were gone. We are thrilled and can't wait to have her take care of our cats on our next vacation!

Very nice to talk to, was very understanding of the potentiality of cancelled vacation due to a medical condition of mine, but on that visit she took great care of our old kitty. Sent lots and lots of photos of her to let us know she was doing well, very much clearly loves animals.

Lori is very loving and helps my introverted dog feel comfortable around other dogs. He gets extremely excited to see her which warms my heart!

Lori is awesome. She made our dog feel safe and she was very reliable.

Lori is amazing! Our cats can be pretty skittish, but love her… which really puts our minds at ease when we are traveling. Can’t recommend enough!

Lori is the consummate professional. My wife and I feel so lucky to have found her and Stow Road Pet Sitters! She even came to visit us at our house before we had decided to adopt our dog, which made us feel completely comfortable that we had a plan in place when we did finally adopt him. So far, we've sent our dog to her half-day daycare, which is a gem. Our pup gets to play and interact with Lori's own sweet dog and other dogs, who she vets as carefully as she vetted us and our dog, which makes us feel all the more comfortable with her. Our dog gets home utterly happy and fulfilled, and as he continues to get used to life with us, the wait for us to get home after work clearly feels shorter to him after a day at Lori's daycare. Her service is top notch, as is she! We couldn't be in better hands!

We had an amazing experience using Stow Road Pet Sitters for our dog Beau. He spent a week boarding with Lori and her dogs. We will definitely be using this service again in April. Our dog Beau was able to run and play every day with the other dogs. He loved it!!

Lori does a great job looking after our dog. She’s very communicative and sends us lots of pictures! I would highly recommend Stow Road Pet Sitters to anyone looking for services in the area.

Lori has become our go to cat sitter for our three furry monsters. She does an amazing job, including giving one of our cats his medication. They aren’t the easiest and often hide for strangers, but she’s able to get them to come out for her! She also is so great about sending daily photos and videos along with her updates, it’s such a relief to see how our pets are doing while we travel. We appreciate her so much, and it’s wonderful knowing our pets are in such great hands when we aren’t around.

such a wonderful experience! lori was fantastic with my cat while i was away, and gave me great peace of mind knowing my cat was in good hands! daily pictures and thorough updates. will definitely be using their services again!

Lori is an excellent pet sitter! We boarded our 1 year old Labrador with Lori for two nights at her home. She recommended we do two different meet and greets to ensure that our pup got along with her pup giving us the peace of mind we needed before boarding. They became great friends! Lori is incredibly communicative sending photos as frequently as you’d like. We will definitely be using Stow Road Pet sitters again!

Lori gave us lots of updates and pictures so we got to see our little furbabies even while we were away. They were even happy when we got back, so we know they were well loved!

Lori has been terrific with our puppy Sadie. She loves animals, is dependable and runs her business efficiently. We’re so happy to have found her.

Lori's service is fantastic. In the ten days we were out, she took care of all our three cats perfectly. She always made sure all the cats were doing and eating well on every visit. I will recommend Lori for friends for sure.

Great service! We enjoy being able to visit our family back home while leaving our pets in good care!

Lori is the BEST! We have been sending our pups to Lori for daycare for a few months now and also boarded them with Lori recently for 11 nights while we traveled internationally. We received daily updates and pictures of our pups while we were away which gave us comfort in knowing they had adjusted well and were being treated like a king and queen! We are so grateful that we found Lori and Stow Road Pet Sitters and look forward to her continued care of our pups in the future. Thank you for everything Lori (and Chris ;-))!!!

There's no other person I call when I need a dog sitter. Lori is the best!

My dog Sulley loves the days he goes to Day care. He always comes back happy and sleepy.

Our dog absolutely loves his walks with Lori. She is always keeping us updated with pictures and videos of their walks which keeps us at ease while at work. She is the best and I highly recommend her for your dog walking needs!

Stow Road Pet Sitters were fantastic and professional! Took great care of our dog and two cats, and provided piece of mind with lots of updates and photos while we were traveling. Will definitely use next time we’re out of town!

Lori is awesome!!!! My dogs sit by the window and wait for her car to pull in. They are angry with me on the weekends when she doesn’t come.

We have used Lori’s services for overnight dog sitting twice now, and we trust her more than anyone with our girl! We have traveled internationally for both of our dog’s stays, and Lori constantly kept us updated with plenty of pictures, and it clearly shows that she gives the pets in her care lots of love and attention. We have a 5 year old, somewhat timid rescue and I was nervous about leaving her, but she LOVES Lori and her whole family! They truly open their home to the pets they care for as if they were their own, if I lived closer I would use all of Lori’s services! If you have the opportunity to have your pet cared for by her, take it! You won’t be disappointed!

We’ve used Stow Rd Pet Sitters services on multiple occasions for our cat and dog and every time it’s been great. Our cat (Hailey) doesn’t come out for people besides my husband and I but has come out multiple times for Lori which is honestly saying a lot. On our most recent trip we were gone for two weeks and in addition to taking care of Hailey, Lori also so very kindly watered our plants and took in our mail, both of which were completely unexpected and so very thoughtful of her. I would recommend Lori and her company any day.

I have been using Lori for a few months now and she is the greatest! She always provides pictures of the dogs at the end of her sessions - whether that be a walk or an in home drop in. She treats my dogs like they are her own, she protects them and loves them. I will continue to use her and would recommend her to everyone. Plus the dogs love her, it's an easy hire!

Lori did great job looking after my cat during my trip away for 2 weeks. Highly recommended.

We are so happy to have found Lori! She took excellent care of our 7 year old pup, Lily, while we were away on vacation. It was evident from the very first meet and greet that Lori has a special love and touch with animals! Lily took to her immediately. And we really appreciated the daily updates and pictures Lori sent each time she came to visit/care for Lily. What’s more is that Lori even brought in our mail and trash bins while we were gone. It was just a simple “extra” that we really appreciated. I would highly recommend Lori and wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch our pup again!

Lori did a great job of caring for my three cats while I was away! She kept tabs on all three cats, sent photos daily and based on her daily communication I had confidence she would notice if something was amiss, even for the cat that is very shy! She even kept an eye on the yard and the basement dehumidifier. Her attention to detail and care for my pets allowed me to take a long trip with no concerns. Thanks Lori!

Lori saved the day when our regular pet sitter fell through last minute. Our dog had the best time at her house, he even seemed a little sad to come home. She kept us updated with regular texts and pictures the whole time we were away which we really appreciated. I couldn’t recommend Lori more, we will definitely be using her again!

Lori took on the tough job of providing eye ointment to my sister's kitten when my sister could not get the cat to comply. This was no small task. Lori first worked to gain the cat's trust and developed strategies to assure that it could be handled and that stress was minimized. To tell the truth, I had little hope that the 5 day (2x per day) treatment could be successfully completed. But she did it! Hats off to you Lori.

Lori treated my cats as if they were her own. She did a great job sharing updates and photos with me. Will not hesitate to book with Lori again!

This will be the third year Lori has been watching our dog Clover and I couldn’t be more happy! Clover is a gentle giant who is also very attached to me and gets nervous in new situations. She connected with Lori and her pup right away! Lori is attentive and incredibly responsive. She takes amazing care of Clover when we are away and is always sending pictures and messages about how things are going. It is a relief to know Clover is in good hands when we are away!

From the minute we met Lori, I knew she was going to be the perfect fit to watch our pup! This was the first time we have left the dog with anyone since getting her and I was definitely nervous, but Lori set our minds at ease right from the start! We were able to enjoy our time away so much knowing she was being cared for and loved!! We came home to a happy, safe and tired puppy!! What more can you ask for?! Thank you Lori for everything!

Lori is the best dog walker I have had the pleasure of meeting. She is super communicative and has been great with my Golden Retriever puppy. She always sends an update when she leaves which makes me feel at ease and can have one less thing to worry about in a busy day! Lori is the best!

Lori is amazing with our dog Baker! Not only does she love watching him for us when we are away but Baker also loves going there and spending time with her and her family. Baker is an Australian shepherd with tons of energy and whenever he comes home from a weekend at Lori’s he is exhausted. We really appreciate how much she cares for the dogs that she watches and gets them plenty of time outside playing. 10/10 would recommend Lori (Stow Road Pet Sitters).

Lori was great! She stopped over to feed my cats 3 days in a row while I was away. She was punctual, friendly and communicative. She went the extra mile by sending texts and pictures/videos during each visit. I would hire Lori again for any pet sitting needs!

Lori has been taking Wilson for a walk twice a week for some time now. We find her to be incredibly reliable and trustworthy and appreciate her level of professionalism while still maintaining a wonderfully playful attitude with Wilson. We would definitely recommend her dog-walking services!

Lori took care of my two cats for almost two weeks. One cat is terrified of strangers, and really hides well, but Lori found her several times to make sure she was fine. The other cat still misses Lori, who took sweet and gentle care of her. Lori is a lovely human being who respects animals totally! She will always be the person we choose in our absences. Her rates are quite reasonable.

Lori was great. She took extra good care of my elderly dog and cat while I was out of town. I could tell she was very understanding and attentive to my dog's special needs. And, I loved that she provided updates with pictures and videos regularly.

When my dog was around 10-12 weeks old, I came across Lori and was extremely happy to have found and worked with her. She is truly wonderful, kind, and attentive with her clients and their pets. She has always been dependable and I could always tell that she truly cares for my pup which I greatly value in a pet sitter. She has always been an hard worker and I’ve watched her business grow into what it has become today which is nothing less than successful and continuously blossoming. She is someone I always recommend to people who are looking for a pet sitter because I have confidence in her capabilities and skills. You won’t be disappointed in hiring her!!!

My husband and I just recently moved into a new home in April, so we were very nervous about leaving our cat alone for a week in a new house. Lori did a great job looking after our kitty! She gave tons of pictures and updates during her visits. We also loved the easy/quick communication throughout the week so it always felt like we knew how our cat was doing even while we were across the country!
