Garrett was communicative, friendly, self-sufficient. I returned from vacation to happy birds and a happy home. Thanks!
Kiro was a delight to take care of. Very chill dog. He was content to follow me from room to room laying somewhere near wherever I was. On walks he’s attentive and follows direction. Plus you will get compliments from everyone you pass. I would highly recommend pet sitting Kiro if you get the chance.
Ramsey and Jim left amazing detailed instructions and made me feel at home! Very welcoming and friendly. Gabi is such a sweet girl, and was always happy to sit next to me on the sofa. Lovely, beautifully curated home and great location for exploring Nashville!
I was reluctant to take this sit since I had a sit ending several hours away on the morning she was leaving. She wasn't happy, but she understood it was the only way I could agree to the sit, and we would have to work around it. I needed to leave early on the ending day of the sit for another sit where I needed to travel several hours. She agreed that Rocky would be fine until she arrived home. I didn't know that she didn't have a washer and dryer hookup in the condo and that I would need to use a credit card to pay for laundry services. The laundry room had only two machines, and it was busy most of the time. I was concerned that I wouldn't have time to dry the towels. She told me it was very important to her to have all the towels cleaned and dried and not just the sheets before I left. I decided to take the entire day before I left to clean the condo and ensure I would have access to the laundry machines and the sheets and towels would have time to dry before I left the following day. When I first got there, multiple towels in the bathroom were dirty. I washed and dried all the towels in the condo, not just the ones I used, including hand towels and kitchen towels. I slept on the couch the night before to ensure everything was done before I left. I cleaned the bathrooms, kitchen, and living room, made up the comforter with pillows and placed the cleaned and folded towels and sheets on the bed, cleaned out the refrigerator, emptied all the trash cans, and ensured the litter box had fresh, clean litter (I even bought more litter during my stay) and the cat had plenty of food and water before I left. I took pictures of all the clean rooms, litter, and food and sent them to her before I left. I don't know what else I could have done to make it clean enough for her before I had to leave for my next job. She has a tiny dryer on the floor in a room, but it took hours to dry just a few pieces of clothing I hand-washed during my sit. I would not recommend using it to dry towels. It would probably only take one towel at a time. I recommend making sure you can come the night before if you want to take this sit and bring your own sheets and towels. Rocky is a sweet, easygoing cat who loves to snuggle next to you. I thoroughly enjoyed taking care of him.
Arthur may be the sweetest and most communicative cat I've met! He's quite loving and kind and so well socialized. Arthur's human, Tina, is super organized for sits. She has everything you'd need to know for a comfortable London Sit on her TH profile and helpful notes around the house for key reminders. Her house is lovely and she could not have been more accommodating and kind!
We had a fantastic stay with Frankie for just over 2 weeks while Gabriella and Brandon were away. Frankie is an absolute joy to look after, cuddly, friendly and great off lead. We even bought our Springador Hendricks which was great for us! Frankie adored Hendricks, they played extremely well together, and would even curl up together on the sofa which was super cute! The house is about a 20 min walk from the station where you can get a direct train into London in 23 mins, the local area is full of great pubs and restaurants. We also weren’t too far from Bushy Park so would take Frankie there for a good run around most days! Thank you so much Gabriella, Brandon and Frankie for having us! X
I really enjoyed hanging out with Buck and Farrah over the long New Year's weekend. Both dogs were fun to be with. The reason for the four stars is the unfortunate nipping by the 9-month-old German Shepherd / Rottweiler on my husband's backside soon after we arrived. Apparently, Buck has an issue with men unless personally introduced by his human parents. This behavior will undoubtedly go away when he receives some training. Until that time, I would be reluctant to recommend this sit to a male pet sitter. Overall, I enjoyed the sit very much!

We trusted Alder Creek when we left for a week-long trip across the country, and we will absolutely trust them again. Our dogs were well taken care of and seemed happy and normal upon our return. I love their attention to detail during the drop off process and felt so reassured every time I communicated with them. Can’t recommend enough!
The short skinny, these folks love animals! The animal cages are roomy and clean. My husky’s love going here for grooming and boarding. A couple of notes, they are the premier dog boarding place in Poulsbo, so if you would like to schedule with them please call them ASAP(especially around local holidays like the first weekend of snowboard season and any Finn River Event). I really should leave them a 1 star so that the rest of you stop booking them up😂😂 Story time: one of my husky is a rescue and he is a skiddish little fella. It is amazing to see his tail pick up and him getting vocal when he see’s the ladies here! He b-lines inside and they spoil him with love and attention through his stay! Con: They typically book up around holidays around 5-6 weeks out and are typically booked 1.5 weeks out for the rest of the year FYI
We boarded our dog Argo at Alder Creek pet lodge for 3 weeks while overseas and would highly recommend them for your pet care when away from home. We elected the play option and photos, each week we received images of our dog rubbing freely in one of the fenced yards. We received a text from the lodge letting us know our dog had developed diarrhea, they contacted our vet and they worked to help Argo. We were very happy and will take him back there in the future without hesitation.
This place is awesome! The owners love your pets as if they were their own and go above and beyond to accommodate your needs. The amount of services they offer are vast and reasonably priced. They’re by far the best animal lodge in the state!
One of my best experiences ever! Place was easy to get to and staff was super friendly and helpful. Any issues,even the smallest ones, they will call an update. I will definitely use them again if in town.
From one crazy dog parent to another, this is the kennel you can have confidence in to take your baby to stay at while your out of town. Alder Creek Pet Lodge has a spotless facility, outstanding staff, and beautiful fields for your pup to run in. Maverick got a bath and groomed before coming home and this was honestly the softest and best he's ever smelled. It was awesome picking him up not having to worry about bathing him at home after a long time apart. And even though he doesn't have injuries or arthritis he got to enjoy massages from the in-house small animal massage therapist to help with separation anxiety. It makes my heart happy knowing he got special 1 on 1 time with an added therapy benefit. If I could give this place 500 stars I would, but 5 will do. Keep up the great work Alder Creek Pet Lodge, Mav will be back :)
Very friendly, professional and caring staff. Our dog was securely cared for during our trip. We scheduled another stay for an upcoming visit with out of state family. I recommend their services highly.
Great facility and supporting staff! Bryanna has been Professional, Understanding, Supportive, and ALWAYS provides Exceptional service for our dog. THANK YOU!
Absolutely wonderful place to send your pups too when you go on vacation! Our dogs did great and came home all groomed and pretty! Owned and operated by wonderful people!
I have a pit bull and it is always a challenge to find a place to leave her when I got out of town. Alder Creek does an AMAZING job keeping her isolated and safe from the other dogs and treats her like a queen! In all honesty, I actually think her exposure to other dogs around her while she has been there has made a significant improvement in her socializing abilities! Everyone should board their dogs here
We knew Kate was the one we wanted to watch our kitties the minute we met her. She was knowledgeable about cats and proved that when she got creative in ways to get our kitties to eat. (cat owners know how finicky they can be especially when their world is interrupted) My kitties are typically very shy but they seemed to take to her quite well. Kate texted us daily updates to let us know how they were doing. That alone made our vacation so much more relaxing because I didn't stress about them being alone. I especially appreciated that she asked us to text her and let her know that we had made it home so she knew my kitties were taken care of. Goodness knows when traveling anything can happen and she had our back. Kate is awesome!
Kate watched our house and two kitties while we were gone for 8 days. We couldn't even tell that we hadn't been here, and the kitties were well loved. She was very professional and thorough. Will absolutely be using her again. Thank you Kate!
I’ve been using them for about a year and have had a great experience! Definitely puts my mind at ease when I’m away from home!
Kate is awesome. I needed her services during 4th of July at very short notice. It was no problem after being admitted to the hospital from ER visit. I would recommend Animals First to anyone.
Dear Animals First, We enjoy being one of your customers for over 10 years. We trust you completely with a key and full access to our home. Our dogs often go with us on travel adventures, but sometimes, because of their busy schedules, they aren't able to accompany us on certain trips, like when we toured Italy for 2 weeks. It is particularly on such occasions that we appreciate your wonderful services the most. We know that in your loving care, our four-legged family members get to sleep in their own home, take daily walks on familiar routes, hear kind words spoken to them, and receive fresh food, water, treats, & gentle petting. At times we've missed the dogs when we're away, and you have responded to our texts and emails with status reports that ease our hearts and minds. We smile on returning home when we read the daily log you keep about each dog describing their moods, how they walked, and how they did their "business." The service you deliver is priceless, and it makes our time away from home and pets thoroughly relaxing. May God bless and prosper your business. We, including and especially our dogs, love you. Kayren and Ron Ohnhaus
Genuine caring for your furry friends. Kate gives individualized attention and gives each pet attention daily. My pets were much more calm (I believe) because they felt taken care of.
Just started working with them and their investment and care to our pet has been very rewarding. If you care about your pet, I recommend Animals first!
Kate is wonderful and kept me updated on my pets while I was traveling for work. I'm glad I found Animals First!
Kate and Charlotte are great to work with, trustworthy and would recommend them to anyone.
Omgosh, these guys are great. Couldn't ask for better care for my pets.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 My dogs, Olly and Hank, recently joined the Big Valley family, and they’re already loving it! They’ve made tons of new friends (both human and furry!) and always come home happily exhausted. As a Border Collie mix and an Australian Shepherd, they have boundless energy, so finding a place where they can play all day and burn it off has been perfect. We couldn’t be happier with Big Valley!
Big Valley is the best by far! They are always so excited to see my dog Honey. They all give her so much love and attention. I know the staff will always go above and beyond to make sure she is safe, happy, and healthy.
My dog Oba has been part of Big Valleys family for a little over 4 years. He gets Boarded and groomed at Big valley and he absolutely loves going there and it is the best feeling knowing that your dog is getting the best care, love and attention while he is in there care! Thank you!
My dog Cooper loves this place, and he's pretty picky, so I love it when he feels just as comfortable being there as I feel dropping him off. I know he's well-cared for. We love Big Valley Pet Resort!
BVPR is outstanding! Our dog loves to spend the day at day care, and the boarding care is exceptional as well. We also use the grooming services for our standard poodle, and know she is getting treated kindly along with the bath, dry, trim etc. The staff is very friendly and recognizes us every time. They are very careful with the dogs at play time, so you’ll relax while your pet is visiting.
Absolutely love Big Valley Pet Resort! The entire staff is friendly, facility is super clean and I know my pups are safe and loved when I leave them. We’ve been clients for several years (day care, grooming and kennel) and highly recommend all the services they provide.
My dogs love going to Big Valley Pet Resort for occasional boarding. The staff are incredible so Mac and Annie get exceptional care including supervised play time with other dogs. Their grooming services are great as well.
Big Valley is the best! My pup Pippin loves it here so much that it’s hard bringing him home cause he doesn’t want to leave 😂 I broke my leg last June and they were seriously AMAZING and so accommodating too. Couldn’t recommend this place more …
I can not say enough Good Things about Big Valley Pet Resort.♥️♥️ Our boy “Bobby” a year old Golden Retriever loaded with sooooo much energy. He gets so excited when we tell him he is going to school!!! He gets to play with his dog family and even learn good dog manners and new words. He comes home ready for a before dinner nap. My husband and I are in our mid 70’s and really can’t run and play with him as we know he needs. Thankfully BVPR helps us with this. Bobby goes at least one day a week but often 2. He loves ALL the people who work there. WE SO APPRECIATE all the wonderful people, the advice and Great Care they have for ALL THE PETS in there care!!!! YOU AND YOUR PETS WILL♥️♥️♥️ Big Valley Pet Resort😊😊😊
We've been struggling to find a groomer who could take care of our little dog as he has behavioral issues and we're pleasantly surprised how great this groomer is. She took care of our little guy and didn't charge us an arm and a leg. I'll definitely be bringing all of our dogs in
Lady Di doggy daycare and boarding is fantastic. Our dog, Pippi is actually pretty shy and was very nervous with our previous doggy day care. Now she runs up the stairs to see her friends! Pippi clearly adores everyone who is at Lady Di. We feel totally comfortable boarding her there too. One less thing to worry about when we have to travel. We have also used Lady Di's for in home pet care for our cat, Sophie. We were totally confident that she would get great care while we were gone and we were right. Sophie was happy to see us but happy, healthy, and friendly when we returned. Thank you to everyone at Lady Di Pet chaperone. I can't recommend them enough!
My labradoodle loves Lady Di Pet Chaperone! Kaia goes several days per week and has boarded. She’s always happy to get dropped off and adores the staff! So glad we found Lady Di’s!
Great place for small dogs. They take care of your pets like they are their own in an open environment. My dogs had a great vacation there! Staff is amazing. Will definitely be bringing my kids back.
It's tough to let someone into your home when you're traveling, so finding someone like Sarah - kind, trustworthy, reliable... and a true animal lover is wonderful. Sarah is simply amazing. We've taken a couple of trips to care for ailing family members and she's provided home visit care for our shy cat, Tucker. Not only does she do the basics - feeding, cleaning the box, giving pets (if he lets her get close enough) - she also reports on anything unusual that she happens to see. Knowing she's here to care for Tucker has helped us focus on family matters without worrying about how our kitty is doing in our absence. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend Sarah and her team. My active goldendoodle loved going to daycare sessions ahead of my 12-day trip overseas. I felt totally relaxed leaving her there. It's obvious they take care. I would totally use them again!
We are so grateful to Lady Di Pet Chaperone and staff for taking such wonderful care of our 5 month old puppy. I was forced to find a daycare after getting a not so nice note from a neighbor. I had seen this place close to where I live so I decided to check them out after doing research and reading reviews. After completing the application and sending an e-mail, I was contacted immediately. He has been going there almost two months and he is a very happy dog. He is excited to go and gets home exhausted from playing with his friends all day. Because of his positive interactions and the great care from the staff, he is friendly around people and other dogs. As for me, I am able to go to work without feeling guilty because I know he is in good hands. It is evident that Sarah and her staff really love and care about what they do.
Excellent place to care for dogs while out of town. I am very confident to leave Bowie with Sara and her team ❤️ highly recommended.
Sarah and team are amazing. Our puppy absolutely loves going. They take such great care of him and are so communicative. We are so incredibly thankful to have them in our lives.
Huge thank you to Lady Di for watching our Golden Doodle over the past few years! Everyone at Lady Di is professional with a great attitude, and it definitely was the highlight of the work week for our Pup, who could not wait to get there each morning and was always exhausted when we came to pick her up. Thank you, Lady Di!
Best care ever for our puppy! They make sure our boy is active and enjoying the time socializing with other dogs.
My dogs reeked of urine when I picked them up. They peed and pooped in their bedding and this never happens at home. They do not leave the kennel unless you pay extra money. I do not think the kennels are cleaned regularly or they would not have been filthy. My dogs were also nervous and shaking when we picked them up. This is abnormal behavior. The place is run down and stinks like urine also. There is a reason there are not pictures on the website. Do not board your dogs here.
Our Shiba has been there multiple times now with no issues. He is spoiled, picky and doesn’t like people. I was iffy due to older reviews but gave them a chance anyways. This last time he was there for 18 days. He was being stubborn and wouldn’t eat so they mixed in rice and he was happy after that. I knew I made the right choice on choosing them because when I picked him up, he ignored me and ran out to the lady in the office and jumped in her lap all excited, like they were best friends.
The people who work here are seriously angels! They are so kind and compassionate. Our dog had a stress seizure (from separation anxiety, new environment, etc.) shortly after arriving. They were really calm and helped us by driving her to an emergency vet to get checked out. We are so thankful she was in the hands such fast acting and trustworthy people. Highly recommend, even though we didn't board very long with them!
When you walk in the stench of urine is incredibly strong. My dog came home covered in her own urine and she definitely lost weight from the stress. However the staff are very friendly.
We boarded our dogs for a total of 12 days. We opted to have them bathed before bringing them home. They smell AMAZING and are just as happy as when we dropped them off. We have nothing but amazing things to say about boarding / grooming at McDonalds. 10/10 recommend. Staff is so friendly, and truly treated our dogs as if they were their own. We are so happy we choose to board our girls here, & we will continue to do so when needed! Thank you to all the amazing staff at McDonalds Kennel for giving our girls a great experience, and giving us peace of mind while we were on vacation.
We have taken our dog Frida 4-5 times now and have had no issues at all. Highly recommend this kennel as all the employees are always so welcoming!
In 2017, I was going through a terrible divorce and preparing for a minor surgery. McDonald's Kennels saved me in a big way. I was worried about my three dogs, and I wasn't even sure how long I might need for recovery. The workers listened to my story and worked to give me peace of mind while the girls were in their care. When I came back to get my girls, the owners met me and refunded everything I had given them. And then chased my car because we left one of my pup's favorite squeaky toys! Truly amazing people with big hearts. I have many tearful smiles in remembrance of such sweet, kindhearted people. Thank you to everyone there. My girls and I are in a much better place (as you can see by my picture) and I don't think it could have been possible without McDonald's Kennels. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
You can trust this place. They did a good job with my dogs and worked around my schedule, allowing others to pick up my dog for me. The only problem I found it the smell. If you can, pay for a bath before your dogs leave so you don't bring the smell home with you.
Love love love them! Such wonderful people working there and my 2 dogs were so well loved and taken care of. I will not board them anyplace else! They allow you to bring your pets toys and beds etc to make them comfortable. They even offer grooming and baths!
I wanted to shout out this amazing, friendly staff kenneling place. My big pit Bull pup stayed here for about a week and had the best time!!! He was played with, loved, and placed in a big kennel for his needs. Thank you so so much for your patience and kindness to our baby moon!! They also offer military discount which is amazing!!!! I couldn’t recommend this place anymore!!!! They really are the best around with amazing rates!!!
FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!!!! We took Barkley (Cairn Terrier) and Copper (Biewer Terrier) to Michelle for their first time. They both received the full treatment and came out looking amazing. We couldn't be any happier!!! Camp Union Pet Lodge gained customers for life and we will never take our dogs anywhere else! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
We had nothing but good experiences at the Camp Union Pet Lodge when it was run by the previous owner. We regularly took our oldest dog to daycare, and saw Michelle for nail trims and occasional baths. Since they left and the owner took back over, things have gone downhill significantly. They are impossible to contact over the phone, and can only be reached via Facebook Messenger. I spent a week calling multiple times a day before finally getting through. This will be a long review, because there is a lot worth mentioning. We boarded our (now two) dogs over Thanksgiving, and the following was our experience: Initially I made the reservation to include our cat, but contacted them via Facebook a few days later to remove him. I also requested multiple times that our dogs be in a larger shared kennel, rather than two separate kennels. The day before the reservation, they called to confirm we were bringing all three in. They had no record of me removing our cat. They also had no record of me requesting a shared kennel. At dropoff, we brought our own food, and well as their own bowls. Our youngest requires a slow feeder bowl for medical purposes. I labeled the bowls and included written and verbal instructions for feeding. When we picked them up, the bowls had not been touched. We also brought their own Costco dog beds, both of which were covered in urine and mud at pickup. I removed the covers, but they had been soaked through and were not salvageable. This was disappointing considering we’ve boarded them with their beds at Alder Creek and they were fine. Our dogs themselves stunk like urine and had matted spots in their fur. They needed a bath as soon as we got home. Our older dog’s eyelids were red and puffy, similarly to when he had conjunctivitis as a puppy. We’re hoping it’ll go away in a few days. We never received any updates about the dogs during their stay. At one point, I reached out and asked how they were doing. Their response was “The dynamic duo are doing great. Smooth sailing. We are enjoying having them with us.😊”. This felt impersonal, and seeing the state of them at pickup confirmed our suspicions. Lastly, they only returned one of their collars and couldn’t find the other. They searched everywhere and we ended up leaving without it. Later that day they called and said it had turned up. I really just don’t understand how it was misplaced in the first place. Overall, this was not what we expected or wanted to come home to after a stressful day of traveling. We won’t be taking them back to Camp Union. While it is more affordable than Alder Creek, we are more than happy to pay for the high quality of care there. On the off chance the current owner is not aware of the conditions in the facility, I really hope they see this review.
Best place with friendly owners and workers. I have an emotional support shih tzu and he ended up getting sick but this place helped with loving open arms, they would talk with him and holding him. Thank you Camp Union Pet Lodge. PS maybe more later.
I took my gigantic Great Pyrenees Poodle mix (Pyre-doodle) in to be groomed. He just got too big and defiant for me to bath and trim his nails. Well I wasn’t expecting anything to get done because he is a giant scared baby. However! Michelle did an amazing job getting him bathed, blown out, brushed, nails trimmed 🤗😍♥️🥳! Pricing is awesome! We will forever be a client from now on. Thank you so much for making our baby so pretty 🤩. I highly recommend this groomer. She is also the only groomer in the place so I will be calling majorly in advance to ensure an appointment time. I do not want to go anywhere else ♥️♥️♥️
I had previously worked with this business for boarding and grooming for multiple dogs I have cared for. They were wonderful to work with every time. The only difficulty I ever had was restricted windows for picking up and dropping off pets for boarding. Unfortunately from what I understand the business changed management. This time around working with them has been arduous and I will no longer be taking my business to them. I attempted recently to use them for boarding for a dog that they haven't seen before for boarding, but have seen for grooming services about a year ago. They were VERY difficult to get on the phone and I had to call them multiple times throughout the day. When they finally called me back I wasn't able to answer the phone because it was the one hour of the entire day that I was in a work meeting. They left a message saying they needed shot records for the animal emailed to them, but did not give me their email address nor did they actually confirm they had space available to board the animal. So essentially they gave me no useful information. Again I had to call them multiple times to finally get an answer from them on if they had room to board the dog on the days I needed and get their email address. After I sent the shot records they were very short in their reply message wanting to know when I could bring the dog by without any further information. I responded that I wasn't sure what they were referring to. The last time I had boarded with them they didn't need to do a meet and greet (if that's what she was even asking for in her message) and asked if their policies had changed in the last year. The response I got was not friendly or professional stating that they do require to meet the dog before booking a boarding appointment and that their policies are subject to change at any time. When I complied with their demand of a meet and greet and suggested a time that worked well for me since they failed to include any information in their response about times that worked well for them, they declined my suggested time saying the following week worked for them but again failing to give any suggestions of days or times. At this point I was hesitant to continue pursuing business with this boarder because I wanted to ensure that I had a confirmed spot at a boarder before spots filled up and this business kept pushing out when I could obtain a confirmed spot. I contacted another boarder that was able to schedule and confirm my reservation within 2 emails within 15 minutes of contacting them. Camp Union Pet Lodge was extremely unprofessional in this entire exchange. The client should not have to hound the business or work this hard to give them their money. If you want to board or get grooming services and you live close to this place, I would even recommend you drive to another business further away because it would ultimately be more convenient for you in the long run. I give two stars: one for the excellent service I received in the past, but otherwise since the new management I would give them a one star.
I board my GSD and Berner/GSD Mix with them. The Staff is very friendly and accommodating especially with my Berner/GSD Mix who is very skittish and afraid. The make sure he is in the kennel next to his sister so he is more comfortable and they take the time to sit with him to make him feel safe.
This place is absolutely wonderful. It's so easy to make a reservation, and they accommodate later pickups and drop-offs. My dog gets playtime during the day, so I know she's getting the attention she needs while I'm on vacation. My cats get to stay together in the "free-range kitty" room. They've actually built special shelves in the kitty room to help keep my little guys safe! I never worry when my "kids" are staying at Camp Union Pet Lodge!
Brought my German Shepard after a last minute scramble to find a sitter after my regular one bailed out. They were great! Welcoming and friendly staff, and very accommodating.
Had reservations for July 14, 2023, arrived at 7:50, left at 8:50 without ever seeing a human soul. Phone not answered, message inquiring if misunderstanding about drop off time not returned as of July 15th. Don't risk your vacation on this place !!
We got lucky with having this gem nearby, but if we ever moved out of Seabeck we'd still make the drive for Camp Union Pet Lodge. The staff is so friendly and so very obviously love and enjoy being around animals. Our dog started out being kenneled here, but now we take him regularly for grooming services. He always comes home smelling clean, extremely happy, and well taken care of. It's always nice when you pick up your animal from an extended stay and the staff comments on how much they'll miss him. Makes you confident in your selection of kennels.
We used Linn to watch our two cats while we away, and she did an amazing job. It was so nice to get to have them stay at home versus being separated for boarding. She administered medicine for one of our cats, tended to the litter box, made sure they got water/food, and played with them! Tremendous value for the price. She even got our mail for us. Would highly recommend!
The business owner is wonderful with pets. If you need to travel away from your feline fur babies for a short time, you can safely leave them in their comfortable home environment and Linn will come visit and feed them so they don't have to stay in a kennel. This service is super valuable to us.
This is the best place for day care and boarding! Linn is flexible to changing schedules, and quick to respond. She monitors the group closely, and makes sure all the dogs get along. Her yard is great for the dogs to run around, and the indoor space is great to keep them dry in the winter. I really like that when our dog boards here, that he is not in a kennel, and treated like family. Couldn't ask for a better place to send our dog to!
Linn is amazing!! She was a life saver! My husband and I have to travel a lot for work, and a lot of the travel is last minute. We gave Linn a set of our house keys, and we were able to call at the last minute and ask her to cat sit for us. When I travelled, I never worried about my little cats, I knew they were in good hands. I like Linn because she is a professional, she is licensed, and knows pet CPR! My cats are very shy, and don't always like strangers, but they loved Linn! I really felt that Linn genuinely cared for my cats. It was also nice to get pictures of my cats while I was on the road. I only wish that we still lived in Tacoma! **UPDATED: My husband and I had to travel for 3 weeks in a row. We didn't know what we should do with our cats. We don't live in Tacoma any more, and we didn't want to try a new cat sitter for that long. So Linn offered to board our cats! I can enjoy my vacation knowing that my cats are being looked after and cared for at Linn's place!
Linn is amazing with our dogs and has been extremely welcoming every time. She's also very accommodating with our needs. We moved further away but will continue to use her.
We take our two germans shepherds to Personal Pet Concierge and have loved them. We love that we get several updates from Linn several times while we are away, and we know that our dogs are being cared for throughout the day, not just left alone in a crate. We love that the dogs are not being kenneled and are in a home environment and aren't surrounded by a large number of other animals during their stay. Carter P.
We have taken our Mini Aussie Roo to stay with Pet Concierge a couple of times and she LOVES it. Lynn takes great care of her for a reasonable price as well. I appreciate that she sends updates with pictures of how Roo was doing while we were out of town which helped us relax knowing she was in great care. Roo always has a comfortable stay with dog beds, room to run and enjoys playing with the other animals that are staying with Lynn. Lynn even went the extra mile and bought us another bag of dog food when we ran out on the last day. Saved us a trip to the store on the way home when we picked up Roo. Highly recommend them for pet sitting.
Personal & Pet Concierge takes awesome care of my kitties. Even my shy - special needs kitty gets the care she needs. I get regular updates and I have peace of mind while I travel for work or fun. Linn and her team take awesome care of my fur babies! Thank you Linn and team!!
I love Personal and Pet Concierge. Linn and her team make traveling for work easy and stress free. I never worry about my cat anymore because I know he's in really good hands. While their services are 100% great, I want to highlight a couple areas in which I think P&PC excel. The first is communication. This is an important area for me (I'm a writing teacher) and I find that many petsitting agencies and individuals struggle to maintain adequate communication before an after my travels. P&PC have been wonderful communicators. They reply quickly to my efforts to schedule care for my pet. They send me updates (including images) while I'm away. And they are always clear about billing, visit schedules, etc. I couldn't ask for more. The second area is care. In the past, when I would return from a long trip my cat would be all out of sorts from a lack of TLC. Since I've been working with P&PC, he seems to barely notice that I've been away. This is because they visit him often and they treat him like he matters (like he's their own pet). It's not just about keeping food in his bowl. In sum, I can't recommend these folks any higher. I don't think you'll find better pet care in the area.
AMAZING! Our rescue Border Collie, Quinn, had always been a little apprehensive around other dogs, especially males. He spent a week with Linn & Mark and their bevy of guests. Quinn had the time of his life! He was exhausted and content when he got home. It has now been several months since his stay, and we continue to see the positive after-effects of his visit. He remains confident and more social. As a matter of fact, we had a true test shopping at the hardware store yesterday. Quinn was relaxed and social with a male dog, even sharing a treat! Thanks, Linn & Mark! Quinn loves you guys, too!
Fantastic Dog & Cat Sitting has been a wonderful partner in caring for our two cats, when we need to leave the area for a few days, or occasionally for a week or two. Dan is professional, coming to our home to meet us and our cats initially. We had a quick conversation, viewed the space and gave the specifics of their routine. He noted information for their emergency vet contacts, and where all supplies are located. If Dan has been booked when we were seeking a sitting date, he has a great team to reach out to, who've been able to help out in his place. Lynn sat for us recently, and did a great job. We feel lucky to have been able to rest easy, while our cats are being cared for by FDCS. It can be a big upheaval for pets, to have their humans gone for days. And so, to know that they're being cared for kindly by someone familiar, that seems ideal. This service is highly recommended!
I’ve relied on Dan to take care of my cat, Milo, when I travel. He does a great job of feeding and checking up to make sure Milo is taken care of while I’m gone. He even gives Milo his asthma medication using a special cat nebulizer. One thing I especially like about Dan is that the first time I used him, he came over to my house to meet the cat, made sure he knew which vet I used, and asked for emergency contacts. I’m glad I use Fantastic Dog and Cat Sitting Service and enthusiastically recommend him.
We've been working with Fantastic Dog & Cat Sitting for several years and recommend them highly! They're incredibly conscientious and responsive, and we know our three cats will be well cared for when we travel. 5 stars!!
Dan is reliable and consistently available. He has always called if any issues have occurred. We have appreciated his care of our two cats.
Dan, and Jeff, have taken impeccable care of my cat over the past 5 years. I got referred to them through my landlord who had used Dan’s services before. Always professional, very reliable, clear communication, and my cat loves Jeff. As most pet owners feel their fur babies are the most precious and special, it takes a lot of trust to leave their care in someone else’s hands. I’d also get photos and updates during care visits, which made me feel really good. I absolutely trust and recommend wholeheartedly, Dan and his team for the quality of care my pet and I received knowing my fur baby was in the best of hands! Thank you Dan and Jeff!
I have been using Dan’s pet sitting services for years! Dan is really personable, prompt, and professional. His staff care about our pets and we can leave town without worry. Jeff (one of Dan’s employees) has had a key to our home since 2018! Your pets will be loved and cared for. Jeff even picks up our mail and is happy to water our plants. Can’t recommend Dan and his team enough!
Dan has been "fantastic" with taking care of my cats when I have to be out of town. He's taken great care of my older cat who needs insulin shots, successfully dealt with the younger ones who don't really like people they don't know, and has been able to make space for me on short notice when last-minute trips have come up. He's even cleaned up messes that have occurred while I'm gone. Would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a quality and caring cat (or dog) sitter!
Dan does a great job!! We have two cats he has sat multiple times. One requires daily doses of insulin.
This is a wonderful service! When I made my first inquiry, Dan responded within a very short period of time. I was pleased because often responses are delayed for a while. I met both Dan and Jeff ( who would be taking care of my cats) and was impressed by their professionalism as well as compassion for pets. While I was away for 10 days, Jeff kept in touch with all his cat reports. When I came back, my place was tidied up and my cats were relaxed. I highly recommend Dan and Jeff!
Dan is wonderful; I’m so grateful when he cares for my cat! He is reliable, always responds quickly, and is respectful of my home. He clearly loves animals and is gentle and kind with my cat. I don’t worry when I have to be away, because I know that Dan is taking fantastic care of my cat!
My dog has been boarding at Bainbridge Dog Inn for a couple months while we build a house. Kate was very patient while I looked at options for my dog and really went out of her way to help me feel comfortable with boarding him long-term. He's been there for two months now and is so happy with the arrangement. He hangs out with Kate's dog Rowdy all day on their big, fenced property. He's 100% safe and loved. It's like he's become one of the family. Kate's so easy to work with and the prices are reasonable. Give her a call.
Happy, our Jack Russell Terrier loves staying. Has a safe, stay. Receives great care & love. We are very grateful. Kate & her sweet dog Rowdy are The Best!!!
Kate is the very best
As an employee: I would personally board my dog here if I didn’t work here, appropriate accommodations for practically any type or case of dog. Every employee is an animal enthusiast/ pet owner with the mindset of treating your furry family member like they where our own.
We recently boarded our two dogs at Bayside for 4 nights, and grooming. We discussed with them, about picking up our pups, since we were going out of town, we planned on picking them up in the early afternoon. We were told there would be a convenience fee for pick up after 4pm. When we arrived to pick them up at 1:04 pm, they included a charge for an additional night, "because you have to pick them up by noon". This was an additional $84 charge. We were not advised of this policy, and there was nothing posted in the lobby stating this policy, nor on their website. At the moment, and now in hindsight, I believe this information should have been emphasized when we made our reservation. It feels like we were misinformed of a very important aspect of their policy. I don't plan on boarding with them ever again.
We were visiting from pretty far out of town (ga) and needed to board our two dogs for a week while we took a cruise. We were nervous about boarding them as the dogs go everywhere with us, and the little one had never boarded. They were so accommodating, and you could really tell the owner and everyone there were dog lovers. They had a great time. Thank you so much.
We love Bayside. Our dog gets groomed here and has stayed many times. He appears to be happy and comfortable. The staff is great. Definitely recommend.
Had to board my two cats almost 3 weeks. Everyone was absolutely wonderful. Cannot recommend them enough. ❤️
Love this place! They take great care of our pup, both for grooming and boarding. A return customer for certain.
The staff is amazing. They gush over our Winston. We do doggy daycare where he gets to play with his doggy friends once a week, and board him there when we're out of town.
Staff actively listened to my concerns and addressed them all, making me comfortable that my Kenobi (8 mos kitten) with an irritated paw from surgery was well taken care of. Kristen was especially reassuring and went out of her way to make Kenobi secure AND she addressed his reddened paw (with my permission) with Colloidal Silver and intermittent use of the vet's plastic collar to keep him from licking. Oral meds were also given as prescribed. Kenobi stayed 3 nights and when I picked him up his paw looked 95% improved! I was very surprised and super pleased. ~~ The only downside to Bayside is the noise factor. Daytimes, their grooming business is quite loud and can be disturbing and, of course, some of their boarded dogs will bark, as you would expect. I expect there are cats & dogs used to this and for them it's not a problem, others may be stressed or overwhelmed by the noise. Maybe they adjust quickly, I really don't know. Remediating the noise factor with some soundproofing would be potentially expensive, I would think, but it would provide a much improved and more calm environment. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Overall experience: Really excellent and recommended! Thanks to all of the caring staff, and very special thanks to Kristen for your kind words of concern and extra care to my kitten. ~ Suzanne Riley October 15 - 18, 2021
Our family have used their grooming and boarding services. My small dog is a timid dog so his baths take longer than normal but the staff is always making sure my dog is comfortable and are always patient with him. My dog isn’t a fan of how loud the blow dryer is so they put an happy hoodie over his ears to make him comfortable. Also they always call me back the same day when I call to set up a boarding reservation . They have a small dog play yard and a big dog play yard and don’t charge extra for playtime like other places do. My sister in law has a chihuahua that does not do well in the kennel and they allowed her to be up at the front with them! Thank you Bayside Animal Lodge for always taking care of our babies.
Have taken our dog three times and he appears to really enjoy. He comes home and rests for a few hours. The staff is extremely pleasant and appears to be concerned with the well being of our dog. Have made new stay dates.
For years, Aunty Min's has been providing reliable, compassionate, good care for my sweet pup. They go the extra mile, sending photos and updates about the quality of walks and pets. I highly recommend Aunty Min's for whatever per care you nees.
I only review when I am obsessed with a business and Aunty Min’s is one of those for me. Janet has taken beautiful care of our cats over the last year when we have been out of town. She is communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cares for our Gizmo and Gilly like they’re her own. I can always tell that our cats have been well loved and well fed and well snuggled when I get home from a trip. Having peace of mind during a vacation is priceless to me!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience here!
