Clarissa and Jeremy looked after our kitty Robin for about a week this January, and they were wonderful! Communication was great, and they made time to come visit the apartment to meet Robin, get a tour, and pick up keys before their stay. They made sure to update us daily, and we felt fully comfortable during our vacation knowing that Robin was in good hands. They also left the place very clean and tidy, and Robin was healthy and happy upon our return. We would love to have them back in the future, and fully recommend them as sitters for others!
I absolutely loved sitting for Amy and her family. They were excellent communicators, generous, and welcoming. Her home was so comfortable, lovely, and it felt like a joy and a gift being there. They were open to have me and my son do the sit together and made above and beyond effort to connect us with the things in her community that we would love. We fell in love with her cats immediately. They were playful, loving, and each have an adorable spirit about them. It was so hard to leave! I would jump at the chance to be their sitter again and highly recommend them.
We had the best experience ever. The hosts were very welcoming and accomodating. Summerlin is a paradise in the middle of the desert and far enough from the crowd. The pups were so sweet and easy to take care of! I highly recommend this place and we hope we oculd go back one day.
Sharryn’s cats Thelma and Louise were adorable, warm, loving and friendly cats who were no trouble to care for. Sharryn’s home is also warm and comfortable and everything was there that I needed. Sharryn had provided clear information about surrounding ammenities, with maps of interest points. The kitchen is well equipped and House lovely. Sharryn is a thoughtful host and I recommend to take the opportunity to sit if you are able.
I enjoyed caring for Beatriz this past week. She is a sweet cat. The condo is in a great location and easy to walk around the harbor. Cally’s Mom was able to care for Misha. She was also able to answer any questions I had. I would be happy to sit here again. Kathryn
My time with Tasha was just too short! She is an incredibly well-behaved dog. What a joy to stay with her. We played in the yard, took walks around town and went to the amazing dog park/pond in Deland. Deland is a delightful town. Again, my time there was just too short!
We had a lovely time sitting with Bea, who is a gentle and well-behaved dog. The icing on the cake was the opportunity to stay in Kate’s beautiful and welcoming home.

I left my 10-year old Bichon here for 4.5 days with a request to be boarded with the older dog group. He was returned to me with his tail between his legs and soaked in urine. I didn’t realize it until I got to the car but I already had a grooming appointment lined up that morning already so I rushed him over. The groomer teared up because it was so bad. Not sure what happened but if you leave your dog here you’re rolling the dice with their wellbeing. Strongly advise going elsewhere.
Been coming to DITW for 3+ years now. Always greeted with a smile and you can tell the team genuinely loves being with the dogs. I have a pup who absolutely loves going to see all of her friends every time I drop her off. After trying a few places prior to this, I recommend DITW to everyone.
This has been my favorite dog daycare and boarding choice. The staff are very friendly and they greet my dog by name and most importantly, my dog loves it! He gets super excited when we pull into the parking lot and is always exhausted when we get home.
Our dog seems to really enjoy going to daycare. He comes home exhausted and doesn’t get nervous about being dropped off. This makes me comfortable and I believe he enjoys it. Most recently we boarded him and everything was easy and he was well taken care of. I love the pictures they post on Facebook and instagram!
Have had great experiences at Doggie in the Window for several years and running. We gladly take our dog here for boarding and day care and appreciate the kind staff who care for our dog. The facility is clean, includes indoor and outdoor access for playtime, and is very well run. I would highly recommend this facility to others!
My dog Finney loves going half a day and playing with others dogs. The staff is very cordial and accommodating. We've been a long time customer. Doggie in the window is run very efficiently.
Hazel Marie has been going to Doggie in the Window since she was 10 weeks old She turned 8 this past May. All I have to say we're going to doggie daycare and she is ready to go.
Let me start out by saying I think they do a fine job here and I really wish I could leave a better review. When we got a new puppy a year and a half ago we were very excited to have a place to drop her off for daycare, and for boarding, that was so close to home. However, we have had several very inappropriate encounters with Lisa. She has been rude, abrasive, and extremely unprofessional. She has raised her voice, repeated herself in a condescending manner, and yelled at my 7-year old daughter. In reading prior reviews, this is apparently a fairly common theme. As a result, we will not be returning.
My appreciation has escalated since moving out of state, and no longer able to bring our dog here. Doggie In The Window is an amazing resource for your family pet. They treat your dog like family and all their customers with respect, warmth and kindness. Their facility is amazing. This is the best care available. I took my dog there for nine years on a regular basis.
Our pups love coming here! We bring them for both daycare and boarding and they are always excited when we pull into the parking lot and can’t wait to go in to play. I love that the dogs are out during the day and not stuck inside a kennel. Wendy, Lisa and all the staff are absolutely amazing, thanks for always taking the best care of Boz & Gia (and our deeply missed Riggs ❤️)
Just had a great first experience with Fetch this last week while on vacation. My dog walker, Barb, gave super updates and pics that reflected she was really a great dog person who understood my dog. Email communication before and after was very professional. I will be a repeat customer for sure !!!
FETCH IS AMAZING. I've been using them for over 6 months and have had nothing but wonderful walkers/caretakers!! They provide so many options, all reasonably priced, including quick let outs, walks, all day daycare for those of us that work! And every walker that you are introduced to is local, super flexible, reliable, and so so caring. I know that I can fully trust any caretaker that fetch employs/refers to me! Weekend, weekday, morning or evening, FETCH has always found someone to help me out when I'm in a last minute bind. They always send an update, whether it's a quick text, photograph, etc. The current owners, Marie and Jack, are so so wonderful! Can’t recommend enough.
I recently used the services of Fetch and I was thoroughly impressed with their team, system, and services. From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to ensure that my needs were met and that I was satisfied with the outcome. Their personalized approach and attention to detail were exceptional, and they took the time to understand my requirements and provide me with tailored solutions. What stood out to me the most was their efficient system - it made the entire process seamless and easy to follow. Their team was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had, and their excellent customer service made the experience all the more enjoyable. I highly recommend Fetch to anyone looking for reliable and efficient services. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend Fetch to anyone in need of their services. I look forward to working with them again in the future!
We just got a puppy and needed someone to watch him while we went on an extended weekend trip. Fetch Pet Care was just what we needed. Everyone was so nice and the home where our puppy stayed was clean and had a lovely yard. We were sent regular updates about our puppy including pictures. It made us feel so much better knowing that our puppy was well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely use Fetch Pet Care again and have already recommended them to friends and family. My mom also used Fetch for her dog and loved them as much as we did.
We have used Fetch Pet Care Royal Oak for 2 years and absolutely love their service. Talk about on time, all the time 5 days a week, they are wonderful. She is so reliable and accommodating with any request and the sudden emergency. We have been blessed with an amazing young staff member who the dogs love and so do we!
I have been cleaning turtles for a household twice a month for the last two years and I have personally witnessed in the last year, not one, not two, but three times this same household of pets getting forgotten about. Enough is enough!! The first time Fetch's dog walker forgot the midday and the dogs soiled the house (which they never do). I cleaned up the mess and contacted the owner of Fetch immediately. The second time I walked in to find the dog walker let the dogs out back, then left to do another pet sit. The third, and most recent episode I walked into; three very distress dogs, a whole lot of dog mess, and one very injured parakeet. The water dish for the dogs and the parakeet were almost empty. The parakeets hadn't been fed in what appeared to be days and someone left an overhead light on all day and night for them. Birds need darkness to sleep. That's most likely why one attacked the other, it was hungry and unable to sleep. The house was a mess!!! I arrived at 11am to find no one had been there all morning. The mail and about six newspapers were piled on the front porch, there was a lot of dog feces in the kitchen garbage and on the floor along with urine. There were valuable household items scattered about on the floor and the dogs were very sad. This is all because of neglect from careless pet sitters! I am completely irritated by this situation and want to make people aware that this could be your home while you are away. I hear horror stories all the time. It's extremely important to ask questions when hiring anyone to care for your home, whether a neighbor, friend or a company. I contacted the owner of the home and expressed my concern. In addition to taking pictures, I brought my partner and sister over to help out and they both witnessed the whole situation and were both disappointed at the lack of care and the condition of the home. - - My review has absolutely nothing to do with competition. I find it ironic that three 5 star reviews showed up the same day I posted this. I do not doubt that Fetch of Royal Oak has offered many clients with good service and will continue to do so. I wrote this review because this situation brought tears to my eyes and I felt I needed to share it.
I have used Fetch Pet Care many times and I have always had an amazing experience! The dog walkers and sitters are dependable, personable and great with my dog. I would highly recommend using them!
My cats love our cat sitter! I never have to worry about my cats when I’m on vacation. Thank you!
I Love that they Love the Pups like they Love their own treats them like family
A great pet sitting service for our cat!
