Winston-Salem Dog Care Reviews

See why Winston-Salem dog parents trust The Comforted Kitty for reliable dog sitting and private dog walking.

"We have had a great experience with Comforted Canine and our sitter. He has been extremely reliable and has taken great care of our dogs while we have been away. Knowing he is taking care of things at home has given us the luxury of totally relaxing while on vacation. I recommend using The Comforted Canine to provide quality sitters for you and your loved ones left at home."

"I couldn’t be happier with this dog-sitting service! Their website and booking portal are super functional—everything was easy to set up and manage. Our sitter was just fantastic! He gave detailed reports each visit, complete with photos, so we always knew our dog was in great hands. It was such a smooth and stress-free experience, and I’ll definitely be using them again next time. Highly recommend!"

"Our sitter has been a huge comfort to our dogs, and to us. Our dogs adore him. He sends us so many pictures, and both dogs are excited to see him and at ease in his presence. He gives them both play and cuddle time. While we've had great care from friends in the past, we feel so much more at ease with a true dog lover and professional keeping an eye on them!"

Why Dogs Stay Happier at Home

For many dogs, staying home helps reduce stress, protect their routine, and avoid the overstimulation of boarding, daycare, or group care.

  • Keep meals, walks, potty breaks, and rest times consistent
  • Stay in familiar surroundings with familiar sights and smells
  • Avoid stressful travel, kennels, and sudden schedule changes
  • Skip exposure to unfamiliar dogs in group settings
  • Receive one-on-one attention from a sitter or private dog walker

We serve many cities and neighborhoods across Winston-Salem. Availability can vary by location, service type, and caregiver schedule, so contact us if you do not see your city listed.
