Total Dog Network

The Total Dog Network is proud to be respected and appreciated in so many ways from our clients. Below is a mere sample of some of the fantastic comments we’ve received from a few of those clients. Thanks a lot and keep them coming!

Dan - Founder, The Total Dog Network

"Dan is the ultimate professional. He and his team have been critical to the health, well-being, and care for my dog. Working with Dan has given me piece of mind I would not be able to find elsewhere. He is extremely knowledgeable, passionate, and caring for all dogs. From a business standpoint, it is clear that Dan runs an efficient, motivated, and consistent team. He is prompt, flexible, and is always available for questions and comments which gives the impression that I am his only client (which I know is far from the case!). Dan is an absolute pleasure to work with. Quite honestly, I would not know what to do without him or his team."

Darren Blasko, Stamford, CT - February 19, 2009

"Dan and Total Dog have been excellent. I have found the service to be friendly, flexible and very professional. Most importantly, I see how happy and relaxed my German Shepherd is with her handler at Total Dog. Dan Lindenthal of Total Dog has been working with my dog Lyka since we brought her home a year ago...and Lyka absolutely adores him. I have been thrilled with the support and care Lyka has received with Total Dog. I recommend them without reservation."

Jennifer Ahrens, Norwalk, CT - January 23, 2008

"Boarding both my dogs for the first time was pretty nerve wracking for me even if it was with our personal vet... I decided the next time around to try Total Dog's dog sitting service which came highly recommended from our vet's office. The minute I spoke to Dan, I liked him right away. He was very personable and put me right at ease. I was extremely pleased with how my boys were taken care of by Dan & his staff and how respectful they were of my many instructions. After using their service, I will never board my boys again and they can be well taken care of in their own home!"

Gina M. White, Stamford, CT - March 14, 2008

"Dan is very accommodating and very thorough, He runs his company in a very professional manner. Above all he is a great communicator."

Leslie E. Freed, Esq., Stamford, CT - July 8, 2009

"Dan runs a well managed and reliable dog walking company called The Total Dog Network. I have been using his services for my dog Sasha since last autumn and could not be more pleased. Walks are performed in a timely and professional fashion. Dan and his team of walkers take exceptional care of their client's dogs and will alert the owner if anything seems awry. I would highly recommend his services to anyone seeking a trustworthy dog walker."

Sarah Walsh, Norwalk, CT - July 8, 2009

"Dan has been very generous to the non-profit with which I volunteer. He has a true concern for animals and their welfare especially those in need of homes."

Ilona Bencze Zimmer, Norwalk, CT - Board of Directos, Pet Animal Welfare Society - July 9, 2009

"Dan has been a God-send for us in taking care of our cat and two dogs. He is flexible and exceptionally reliable - we never have to worry about whether our pets will be cared for --- walked, fed, housed or house-sat. We have referred two friends to Dan and would be happy to refer more."

Steve Guggenheimer, Greenwich, CT - July 9, 2009

"I strongly recommend Dan to anyone who has a pet and needs caring for them. He is incredibly trustworthy and I value him greatly to take care of my dog, He is also very kind and caring of all animals."

Jenny Prottas, Greenwich, CT - July 9, 2009

"Dan is not only incredibly professional, he is also trustworthy and consistent and wonderful with his clients, both humans and dogs! He is flexible and willing to go that extra mile to meet you and your dogs needs and schedules. He is wonderful with my sometimes difficult dog, because she is so play driven. Dan has no fear and is totally confident. He has been able to successfully help her engage in fun activities and play nice with others! I am totally confident leaving my dog in his care, and I highly recommend and trust Dan, he is a true pro."

Lauren Collier, New Rochelle, NY - July 19, 2009

"Dan was reliable, trustworthy, and worked very well with my two dogs. I always felt safe leaving my house open and my dogs in his care. Dan and his staff always followed up and even helped me place one of my dogs that I needed to place because I had to move. I highly recommend his services to anyone who would like friendly, punctual, and reliant help with your dogs."

Kerry Anne Linnane, Ridgefield, CT - January 30, 2009

"Since I travel a lot both in and out of the country I needed to know that I could trust and depend on someone to sit in my house for my 200lb Kavkaskaya Ovacharka, a very large breed that takes a special person to understand. Until meeting Dan I was always unsure if I would be called home early or not. From the first time Dan watched Kolya I knew he was the only one for us. If it wasn't for Dan traveling would not be something I could do. When I return, Kolya is so calm, happy and well-adjusted. I trust Dan with my home and with my Kolya. He's extremely knowledgable and very professional. He just seems to be able to talk to the animals. LOL, they love him and I know he loves them."

Allison E Vonick, Trumbull, CT - January 30, 2009

"Dan and his team are very caring, conscientious and considerate of both you and your dog. I've always found him to be flexible and accommodating whatever my needs. I highly recommend him to anyone interested in dog walking, sitting or doggy day camps."

MJ Farrar, Wilton, CT - February 2, 2009

"Dan is the Owner of Total Dog of Ct and provides the best dog services in lower Fairfield county. Without him and his staff I could not do my job. He and his team are of the highest integrity, they are always professional and they are on time. My dog is with them at least 2 days a week and often more given my travel schedule. My dog loves to go to Dan's "Doggie Care" and he is happy and well cared for. I can not say enough about Dan and his team. What I can say is thank you for giving me peace of mind regarding my pet.

Lisa Corvese, Cos Cob, CT - February 2, 2009

"We have entrusted our two Bichons to Dan's care for walks and feeding as well as extended care when we have been away for several days. Dan and his staff are reliable and have provided excellent care and feedback on their visits. This is the first time we have used a "professional" service and it has brought us peace of mind."

Nancy MacDonald, Stamford, CT - February 7, 2009

"Our dog is clearly happy with the service Dan is providing because he comes home happy and unstressed, as he was with other services we had tried. Thank you, Dan!"

David Greenberg, Westport, CT - December 15, 2007

"Dan and his staff at Total Dog of CT are exemplary examples of animal care providers that combine professionalism with service from the heart. I use Dan's company on a daily basis for dog walking and to provide care for my "mini Zoo" when I'm out of town. My animals are my babies and the peace of mind that Total Dog of CT offers deserves high accolades."

Ali Girardi, Stamford, CT - December 16, 2007

"Having Dan take care of our Golden has been a worry-free and exceptionally positive experience. They've been reliable, flexible, and provide daily reports of activity, and any potential issues they notice."

Ron Weiss, Stamford, CT - December 16, 2007

Allison Owens, Stamford, CT - December 17, 2007

"Dan and his additional walkers at Total Dog of Connecticut have been extremely helpful to me and my dog Buddy. I called Dan a few days before moving to Connecticut to arrange a meeting to get set up with a daily dog walking service and he was very prompt in meeting me once I arrived in town and did so at my convenience. I purchase Flint River Ranch Dog Food which they deliver to my door, I trust Total Dog and they are available at all hours if something comes up. I highly recommend Total Dog of Connecticut"

Spencer Stewart, Norwalk, CT - December 20, 2007

"I would describe Dan as a life-saver!!! Time and time again he has gone above and beyond to accomodate us, from last minute services to providing services not even listed! My dog is not the average get along with everyone type and from the minute she met Dan she was hooked, she even behaves better for him than she does for us! He offers great services and I would highly recommend using Total Dog!"

Ellie Sgritta, Norwalk, CT - April 13, 2010

"I would, and have referred Dan's service to many friends...... He is very reliable and very kind to my pets."

Donna Gorman, New Canaan, CT - March 25, 2010

"Dan truly cares about the well being of his clients, both the dogs and people. He is punctual, flexible, and approachable. While knowledgeable about dogs in general, Dan also takes the time to become knowledgeable about the personalities of each of his four legged clients. Dan's love for what he does is apparent in the happiness of the dogs that surround him as well as in the smiles on his human clients' faces; he provides excellent customer service."

Amy Kallesten, Norwalk, CT - May 28, 2010

"Dan and his colleagues at Total Dog care are second to none with the work they do. My dog is noticeably happier and in better shape then ever before. I fully trust Dan with the care of my dog, and I know that he will be feed, taken care of, and picked up/droped off on time. All of which are very important to me. I strongly recommend Dan for your pet care, he does a great job, and even puts pictures up on facebook so you can see your dog having a blast during the day!"

Eric Bleile, Stamford, CT - May 27, 2010

"We've only known Dan for a short time but have been very pleased with his service! He's been great to work with and understanding with our crazy schedule; not to mention our dog loves him! He's great!"

Jessica Tiani, Fairfield, CT - May 27, 2010

"Dan is an amazing person; committed to all animals, loving what he does and that all adds up to the best friend your dog and you could ever have...always available; reliable and attentive to your dog's needs, whether it be a big or small dog. I could not imagine not having Dan to walk my dogs, house sit and listen to my questions. Any recommendation Dan has made reflects his and his company's standards of honesty, dedication and love of animals....he and his company are truly the best there is."

Susan Solomon Silverstein, Westport, CT - May 26, 2010

"Dan started taking care of my dog, Toto, back in 2007. From the moment I met him, he was extremely personable, professional, and I could tell that he absolutely loved working with animals and would take excellent care of my dog. I've always relied on him and he's always come through. When my dog passed away a few months ago of old age, Dan was a great friend and support. And when I got a new puppy, I did not hesitate to call Total Dog Network. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone!"
