Ditmas Paws

We were so nervous about leaving our 3 month puppy Earl for 4 days while we were traveling to DC for work. Not only were their rates reasonable, Kena and Jeffrey exceeded our expectations while we were away. Earl was socialized, went on many walk, continued his crate training and we were kept in the loop with pictures and even a small video on facebook. When we realized we forgot our teething puppies bone hoard, Kena ran to the store to make sure he had some bones to keep up with this teething and training. AMAZING. Immediately we were relaxed and could focus on working out of town instead of worrying about our puppy. So glad we tried these guys and you will be to! Definitely our staple referral and go to for when we need to go work of town. Thank you guys for taking such great care of Earl.

I was really happy that Kena and her husband Jeffrey started their business. The alternatives did not provide consistent quality of pet services. The «other» business that I know of in that area has a constant coming and going of erratically trained personnel with some really bad word of mouth testimonials (as well as online). Thank goodness for Ditmas Paws!!! I see how much Kena and Jeffrey put into their work and how seriously they take the words «Pet Care». They treat your fur baby as an extended family member of their own. I trust them. They are the best because they are highly experienced and they actually love what they do!!! That makes all the difference.

Kena knows dogs and is a thorough and compassionate handler. She’s the only person besides my mom and Eva’s Play Pups that I trust to watch my dog overnight.

I am so glad that I got the recommendation for Ditmas Paws (shoutout to the Badass Brooklyn dog family for the guidance!). Kena and Jeff started taking care of our dog, Roz Doyle, only a few days after we adopted her. They have been so wonderful and patient with us as we are figuring out new dog ownership (Roz wasn’t quite housebroken when she came home with us, so she needs some extra TLC on walks to get comfortable!). Jeff was also our saving grace when Roz got into the pantry while we were gone (what kind of dog eats hot sauce??). Our pup is always in a great mood when she’s been walked by Ditmas Paws, and we are so incredibly thankful for them! The best dog walkers ever!

Kena and Jeff are so great. Jeff walks our two dogs every day while we’re at work. The dogs love him, and it’s obvious that both Kena and Jeff love what they do and genuinely care for the animals they look after. They are responsible and flexible and always responsive. Jeff even sends a text to let us know how each walk went! I highly recommend Ditmas Paws. We feel lucky to have found them.

Kena and Jeffrey have been in the pet care business for many years and they have so much experience with all kinds of dogs and cats. I would recommend them to anyone. They are dedicated and responsible, as well as knowledgeable on all aspects of feline and canine care. They even know how to give medications and help with training. Best of all, it is obvious they love what they do. I wouldn’t have anyone else care for my 3 cats, rabbit and bearded dragon!

They is mad good. They walked my dog when I wuz away and fed him reel guuuud. When I came home he was all shiney and happy, he smelled good. Jeff and Kena are da bestest dog walkers eva.

Kena and Jeff are wonderful! They walk our two high-​energy terriers every week day and take care of our cats when we go out of town. We’ve even boarded the dogs with them when we went on a week-​long vacation. They are incredibly responsive and have always been great with accommodating our schedules, which sometimes change without much notice. We really appreciate the text messages that let us know when they come over and how the visits/​walks went. They are friendly, responsible, and – really important to us – know and love our pets’ unique personalities and needs. I highly recommend Jeff and Kena and am so glad they’re doing business in our neighborhood!

I’ve used them on several occasions when I would go away on vacation, it is very hard for me to leave my gizmo with no one to take care of him, he needs constant attention, and he is very active, Jeffrey & Kena would come every morning & take gizmo for a walk, make sure he has food & fresh water, I was able to text message them to make sure everything was ok, and as usual it was. They would return at night for his second walk, and make sure he had some extra company before he went to bed. Knowing that gizmo wasn’t alone is a wonderful feeling! Plus gizmo absolutely loves when they take him on walks.
My mother in law has also used them for her two cats, they would make sure the litter box was always clean, there was always food, and fresh water, they would always dispose on the kitty litter so no coming home to a stinky smell! To my surprise they also was kind enough to water her plants while she was away.
Very professional, and very compassionate for animals, you can tell the true love they have for animals. It’s always wonderful to be able to trust someone with your beloved family members that are our pets.
