We got to meet Erin and her daughter in person just before the trip, but we all got to chat over Zoom beforehand and their devotion to their animals came right through in that call! They knew and communicated the cats’ daily routines and made sure we knew how to keep them safe (since it was anticipated that they’d be outdoors much of the time and one had experienced spinal trauma). Brie had a cute walk and her injury didn’t slow her down one bit. She was absolutely inspiring! Kala was more affectionate than we expected and always a sweetie. We had some concern that the cats might not come in by dinner time, but they were most often inside with us before it was time to eat! By morning, they wanted a bit of love and some food, and then were off to a neighboring yard or the patio for some sun. We frequently sat inside with their very entertaining bird, while feeling close to the kitties just outside the glass doors and we were happily surprised by how frequently they wanted to be right with us for petting and attention, and a cuddle on the bed at night. This down-to-earth family has quite the variety of critters (their two cats plus a bird, and lots of chickens), so we gained familiarity with what it would be like to have some feathered friends, which was new and very enlightening. We are definite cat and dog lovers already, but if you’re not sure how you feel about birds, you may be in for a treat! Rainbow surprised me by winning my heart - she’s a real treasure! We danced and sang together daily (sometimes making videos for the family) and I genuinely liked talking to her or just being near her; she seemed to really like it, also. Care of the chickens was largely automated making it a breeze. Before & during our stay, the couple’s communication was on point and their guidebook is the most complete I’ve seen! They had the rooms and bathroom ready for our arrival and made sure that we had everything we’d need and that we felt at home. If a taste of country life in a modern, warm home (with a pool!) is for you, then you’ll love this sit as much as we did! I’d return anytime. Thanks again for entrusting us with all of your little ones!
Exceptional place and people and easy going cats to care for. My stay at Clair`s house in London has been wonderful. It is not only located near everything you want to visit in London but coming " home" to a house you feel very comfortable in was giving my stay there a 5 star memory! The cat feeding rituals were so uncomplicated and their way of taking me for granted made me feel part of the "family". I can recommend Clair`s highly and I feel grateful, that I had the luck to be their house and cat sitter. Sabine
Jane and Chris were really lovely hosts. I felt very taken care of from the moment I arrived and they picked me up from the station and the way they made me feel comfortable in their home. The farm is beautiful to wake up on, rolling hills on your doorstep and Topper was a pleasure to look after. A very chilled out dog who likes a head stroke and a nice walk out in the fields. I can highly recommend 🙂
I really enjoyed Lexi's company, she is a very loving and intelligent pet. She really likes walks outdoors and playing. Georgi is a very courteous host, she is attentive to whatever you need and provides all the necessary instructions. The location of the house is very convenient, it is very close to Manhattan, and it also has different bars and restaurants nearby. I will miss Lexi very much. I hope to take care of her again another time.
Nicole was great and the bunnies were cute :) nice sit.
Cindy is a genuinely kind and warm person. She made us feel truly welcome, and our entire communication process with her was smooth. Thanks to her, we had a wonderful start to our time in Singapore. These two cats are incredibly friendly! Leif is like an adventurer, always exploring new places, and Freyja is a lovely cat with a strong interest in people. Moreover, they are real players who can enjoy with people. It was a delight to spend energetic moments with them. The location of the house is close to the city center, allowing you to experience the local atmosphere. Based on our delightful experience with Cindy and her family, we highly recommend it.

Elizabeth has been our dog walker/pet sitter since 2023. Our dog, Charlie, needs 3 walks a day and Elizabeth takes good care of him. He gets exercise and enjoys time in her company. She is also great when our fire alarms went off in our house during our last trip. She disarmed them and sent pictures. We were happy she was able to take care of the problem. She is a great communicator and I highly recommend her to those who want to leave their animal with a responsible and caring pet sitter!
Elizabeth is a fantastic dog sitter. She is very responsible and reliable. My dogs always seem happy when they are in her care. Much better than leaving them at an impersonal kennel. Zoe and Nacho love spending time with Elizabeth. I would highly recommend her.
Elizabeth is awesome, she takes wonderful care of our Jack Russell mix and border collie mix. They always come home happy and smiling and well cared for. She sends lots of pictures to keep us updated and we are really grateful for her skill with the dogs. Our border collie is on medication which Elizabeth skillfully administers and doesn’t always get along with other dogs in our experience, but Elizabeth is so good with her. She always comes home better trained and socialized then we left her :-)
We’ve relied on Elizabeth for years to take care of our pets and house while away. Guinea pigs, fish, dog - she does it all and keeps an eye on the house. We’ve used her for weekends to over a month. Always reliable and responsive. Pets are well cared for and happy. Good value, good and reasonable service. Highly recommended and much preferred to a kennel.
Elizabeth has been watching our first rescue dog Nico since we got him in 2021, and now our latest addition, Vinny. As with a lot of rescues, ours had some social/ behavioral issues in the beginning, but Elizabeth is an expert. She knows how to work with and around those issues and also make recommendations. The controlled socialization our dogs get when staying overnight with Elizabeth have been immensely helpful to their training. They come home pooped and happy from all the playing! She also offers reasonable pricing and flexible scheduling. If you’re in the Davis area, highly recommend giving Elizabeth a call.
We heartily recommend Elizabeth’s Pet Sitting. Elizabeth is caring, energetic and dependable. Her program has served us very well living in the URC . When on an outing with Elizabeth our dog Pepper is well-exercised, safe and cared for. And the door to door service Elizabeth offers, picking Pepper up at home and delivering her back- what an easy and convenient arrangement! Both you and your dog will be very happy! She sends great updates and is very flexible with day trips and overnights . Ken and Diane Wagstaff
Elizabeth loves our dogs and cats like they're her own and they are always excited to see her! She sends pictures from the dog park and when she sits the cats she often spends time hanging out with them beyond a standard visit. She was very patient with out dog who is not great with new people and going to dog group with Elizabeth has been great for her self confidence.
Elizabeth is amazing! I came into town to move my son into UC Davis and about a month prior to coming I had contacted her and several other prospective pet sitters. Of everyone I had spoken with, she was who I felt was the best fit and most qualified to watch my Zoey. Her rates are fair and she spends quality time with them. She also kept in contact throughout the day to let me now how my girl was doing -including pictures of my happy girl playing with her pack. I highly recommend Elizabeth.
Elizabeth has taken great care of our cats! She's helped with medicine and shots, and picky eating. She's also been able to catsit for us last minute on a couple of occasions. We always come home to happy kitties.
When I came to Davis for grad school, I was worried about having time for my dog, so I reached out to Elizabeth. She is responsive and flexible and most of all, my dog loves her! Wednesday’s are his happiest day of the week and he sits by the window waiting for her. Hiring Elizabeth was a great investment because regardless of how busy I get at work, I know Theo will have great week.
I think my three dogs were fine with their stay, they all seemed happy. It's very clean. I didn't explore the kennel area but will next time. My dogs were there for 3 days. They sent me pics on the first day. I will use this kennel again.
We recently boarded our German Shepherds here. They were happy and healthy when we picked them up. The staff at Happy Paws even sent us photos during their stay! Thank you Happy Paws for taking such great care of our doggos♥️
Happy Paws and all its people took amazing care of my older black lab/ husky mix. He had a great time with them. Ive already booked a longer stay in October 2024.
I waited a while and now our dogs have had multiple stays here. Basically, it's wonderful! I've been on three surprise tours and they've all been great! My timid dog has gotten more and more comfortable and happy to get there. We did a few warm up days with him and then overnights before a long trip. My outgoing dog has always just loved it! I love the people there, they always do their very best to help me, 100% of the time. Also, several times I've been there people have insisted on leaving additional tips because they are so grateful to have their dog well taken care of... which I completely understand. Thank you!!!
I recommend Happy Paws Kennels for your fur baby or babies :) The process to check in for boarding was really easy and quick. Plus, they have a new office located beyond the gates, which is always nice because you'll have a chance to see the other happy dogs that are boarded there. They were also very communicative and made it easy for bookings. They also gave me complimentary baths at the end of their stay, which was very nice! One feedback that I would add is that I wish they would send pictures of the dogs as a compliment to the stay. A suggestion for Happy Paws is to provide the options for clients to choose the option of receiving pictures and updates during the stay. I think that will really enhance and add value to the experience. Overall, the experience was great, and my dogs seemed happy.
Boarded my dog here for 2 nights, and it was a very good experience! Friendly, experienced staff. This is a very clean facility and the dogs get plenty of excercise(weather permitting)!
Where to begin…I dropped my dogs off yesterday and my truck decided to just die right then and there. The team was SO fantastic and helpful trying to get it up and going. Above and beyond thoughtfulness. I can’t thank them all enough for the help and genuine concern. Getting to what their business actually offers — Our dogs LOVE it here - we are new to the area so have only done day visits so far, but I am sleeping well at night knowing they are here while I’m away for the first time. I’m so glad we found Happy Paws!! 🐾 thank you for the caring service!
We absolutely love these guys. They took such great care of our puppy baby. She slept for 2 days when we got home from all the fun and exercise she had. We plan on going back regularly. They have great rates and a military discount. Thanks for really taking care of my baby.
A really nice facility with options for a bath! Loved getting clean puppies to take home. Very nice staff, we brought extra bedding, a couple of toys and like that they allow that..
My pet had a wonderful time.. we will use this place again
Was assured by owner that staff would respect and secure my home and they did not. Front door was left unlocked while walker was out with my dog and back door left unlocked and open when they left. Staff also forced my fearful dog into a harness before earning their trust, sent me a report photo of her looking extremely uncomfortable in my kitchen. I let them go after four days and would not recommend them to anyone
I have trusted the care of my furry friends to Janet and her team for 16 years now. They have been through a lot with me and my cat crew - saying hello to new furry faces and some goodbyes too. I realize as I begin to think about traveling again, that using Janet and Lucky Buddy to take care of Finn while I am away is critical to me feeling comfortable. When it comes to the pets who depend on me, I have a hard time assuming that "no news is good news", so I really love the daily photos and updates. The staff is really proactive about the pet's comfort, and I know I could count on Janet to do anything needed. That's really important to me when I am out of town and sometimes very far away.
I’ve been having Janet and her team care for my sweet dog Diamond for years. I enjoy the updates they give me via email each time they visit her and I’m away, along with a sweet photo of my dog. I can tell they are people who truly care for animals and I like when they bring attention to any concerns they’ve noticed with her. They have always been accommodating to the schedule that I have and I truly appreciate them.
In a word, amazing! I had a serious medical emergency and was hospitalized with no notice. Janet and the team stepped in the same day and took care of my pup for days until I was able to return home. Thank you Lucky Buddy Petcare!
Janet and her team are really in love with animals. I’ve petsat for friends and colleagues and the overall vibe from this small group of dedicated part-timers is an appreciation of your home and your animals’ comfort in it. They also are mindful of bro gong in packages/mail and watering plants, so bonus. Also, they include pictures and little fun reports on the pets’ “state of mind” Worth it every time.
Janet is awesome and we love being able to rely on her and her team to take care of our fur babe. Thank you for loving him as much as we do!
Daily updates with amazing service.
Ignacio, we appreciate your removing this review from 2018. We haven't taken care of you and I believe you intended this review for another company? Thank you for removing it. Kindly, Janet
Ashleys is excellent. All three cats receive individual attention and any accidents or medications are professionally and politely dealt with. The on-line appointment and payment system is convenient and easy to use. Out pets are very well cared for while we are away!
Amazing service! We were traveling for a week, and Ashleys Pawsome Pet Sitting took great care of our 2 cats. Cassidy was great, we received daily pictures of our kitties, and we could tell they really liked her. I’m definitely using them again!
My husband booked a second honeymoon in Cancun and I was anxious. I didn't know what we were going to do about care for our baby, Scarlett. A coworker recommended Ashley's Pawsome Pets and we are so thankful. They are bonded and they are background checked. We had a meet and greet with our sitter. Which I appreciated so much. Our sitter, Amanda, was absolutely wonderful. She came twice a day and was so attentive to Scarlett. I couldn't have asked for better! She is amazing! My favorite thing is they have a journal with pictures so you know everything that happens with your fur baby. My only con would be the extra fees that aren't 100% transparent. The service is pricey, (but worth it), however, when I went to pay the bill, there was an added fee for administration and then again for credit cards (which I use for security.,) I'm willing to pay whatever is needed for the care of my pet, but it was a tad surprising. Thar said, they are amazing snd we love Amsnda! We will be using them again in the future! The service is outstanding!! The attached pictures are from Amanda's very detailed journals!
We have used Ashley's Pawsome Pet sitting for every single vacation we've taken the past year and greatly appreciate the services of her staff. As someone prone to worrying, the pet journals and photos her sitters take and send daily are wonderful. While I have only had two different sitters, they are always kind, professional, and follow instructions well. I feel like my cat is in good hands when I hire a pet sitter through her.
We have left two different dogs in Ashley's care. Each time, we had so much confidence about how they were faring while we were traveling (in large part because Ashley sends pictures showing how comfortable and happy they are in her home; she sends sweet messages, too). Every aspect of the visit went exactly as planned; her website is easy to use and very informative. All in all, a very professional transaction with a very loving caregiver.
Ashley was wonderful with our 3 dogs and cat for the two days we were away. She sent me pics of all of them each time she visited them during the day and I can say, they looked really happy! We've never left them before, so this was a fantastic experience for us, but mainly our dogs enjoyed her so much as well! Will for sure use your services in the future.
Ashley is so friendly and sweet! Her family is so welcoming and loving. She took excellent care of our pups while we got married on the coast. I loved the pictures of cuddles and the daily updates. I highly recommend her, it's a wonderful alternative to boarding.
We love Ashley’s Pet Sitting. We’ve been using them for years and we can always depend on them for taking care of our pet squad when we are away. They are on time, leave visit notes in their online portal, and care for our pets - even going so far as contacting our vet when one of our dogs stitches came out. We came back the next day and were able to get him right in to the vet. Our dogs don't do well at a boarding, so we were very thankful to find Ashley’s!
Used Ashleys for the first time this weekend and were very happy with the service! Super professional and responsive. Love their online portal and how easy both communication and payment was. Most importantly, our dog and bunny were well taken care of and content when we returned. Will definitely use them again in the future!
Ashley's Pet Sitting is the best for our family! We love the knowledgable, loving and individualized care she offers. The online portal makes everything easy. We like getting photos of our dog when we are away and usually some funny commentary! We are grateful to have found Ashley's for our slightly crazy but loveable McNab Border Collie!
We are really thankful for TJ service. After a last minute call he accepted both our dogs and was patient enough for both. He updates us everyday, highly recommended.
I took my two dogs to Tj's All Per Care for three weeks stay. Terrel went way beyond what he was asked for. He took a good care of my dogs, he kept me informed with daily messages of the dog's activities, he fed the dogs as he was asked. I'm very happy with Terrel's service and honesty. I would definitely trust my dogs to Terrel again
Great place! this was my dogs first time with a boarder and he definitely benefited from it. I was out of town on a work trip for 3 weeks and I didn’t want my dog to be in a kennel majority of the day so this was a perfect fit for us along with becoming more social with dogs. He went to the park everyday and TJ also sent me at least 2 pictures everyday and answered any question I asked on my pup. After I picked up my pup he has been sleeping wherever he can, definitely not the last time we’ll be using his services.
TJ runs his service like a business. We were especially impressed with his professionalism, foresight, and experience. While watching our dogs we encountered an unforeseen travel situation that he was able to accommodate with no issues. The entire time we felt completely comfortable and safe with him watching over our dogs. He provided daily photos and updates on how they were doing. We would definitely go back to TJ and recommend him to anyone looking for a competent, communicative, and professional sitter.
Terrell did an amazing job with my 7 month Doberman. We were in a last minute bind and Terrell was able to take him the day of AND keep my dog for 4 days. Terrell really does know how to handle all of the different personalities which is very important when you have a large dog with a lot of energy and separation anxiety. I noticed that when I picked my dog up that he was calm and leaning against Terrell as we were talking. We were very Appreciative of Terrell's flexibility and Happy with the state of our dog upon our return. We will be returning with no doubt!!!
TJ went above and beyond to accommodate us as we were moving from Japan to Fairfield. He has the most flexible hours for drop off and pick up and is reachable by phone at almost all hours. My dog has never been happier when boarded...probably because she is not locked in a concrete run/cage, instead, she is hanging out in a comfortable home! My dog was due her monthly preventative medication and TJ ensured she received. He takes all his boarding dogs to the local dog park and keeps them actively engaged with other dogs, toys, treats, and human interaction. TJ sent us daily photos/updates and it's clear he loves our dog almost as much as we do. I will be using his service again and again. In fact I'm hoping he will do some doggy daycare too!
TJ is Awesome! Knows how to handle and treat dogs, I have a old German Shepard and a old Jackussel mix. Both dogs came back happy and healthy. TJ takes them to the park, plays with them and let's the do what they want. He is very professional, polite, super responsive to calls and texts and sends pictures to you 2 time a day of your pet. I will recommend TJ to everyone!
It's a great place! It was my dogs first time with a boarder and he difinitely loves it. Tj takes him to the park everyday along with other dogs so this was perfect so he can be more social with other dogs. Tj also sent me 2 pictures everyday. If anyone looking for a sitter, I highly recommend " TJ's All Pet Care Service" Thanks Tj!!!
TJ did a wonderful job taking care of my older labrador! I was in need of last-minute pet care for a day trip for work, and was SO grateful that TJ was able to keep my sweet old dog entertained while I was away. (He even sent me a nice picture of all the fun they had at the dog park!) My dog is pretty energetic and extraverted for an old dog, and he came home super happy and exhausted -- I think dogs that like to run and play with other dogs will have a wonderful time with TJ.
I have a new adopted German Shepard in my life and I needed to go out of town. TJ was so open to taking my dog and was so caring with him! Hero is a bit nervous and has separation anxiety. TJ is hands on and kept me in the loop with his daily activities. He sent me text messages with pictures that gave me reassurance during his stay. Hero was treated like a member of TJ’s family and I would recommend him to anyone that needs a dog sitter.
Stacy is ABSOLUTELY the most caring, thoughtful and thorough pet sitter that we have had! We have had overnights with many steps that our pups need (dog mom imposed I guess!) and Stacy never said anything was too much. Rather, Stacy understands that dogs are our kids - and they deserve the best care and love. She has a ton of affection and patience even for our “problem child” and loves all animals no matter their personalities. In a world where it’s so difficult to find pet sitters that really go the extra mile and not have to worry about anything - Stacy is a god send! I would highly highly recommend Stacy for any pets large or small, shy or extroverted. Thank you Stacy for adding a ray of sunshine, warmth and unconditional love into our fur babies lives!
Stacy is the best! Professional, hardworking, reliable, and, just as importantly, so sweet and friendly. She truly loves your dog as her own! My boy Shadow is obsessed with her. They hit it off immediately, and it was such a relief to know he was in good care during an extended vacation of ours. I think he was so comfortable and having such a blast with Stacy, he was almost disappointed we came home 😆
Stacy is the best, and our senior dogs (17 and 15 year olds) absolutely love her! I don’t think I trust anyone with our fur babies as much as I trust her! She’s also very flexible and charges more reasonably compared to other services out there.
Can’t say enough about how great Stacy is with my two senior fur babies! She visits with them while I work, and also takes excellent care of them when I go out of town. Stacy sends plenty of updates and pictures, which is very important to me, since my pups both have health issues. She clearly loves pets and I feel like I couldn’t leave mine in better hands. I wholeheartedly recommend Stacy!
I could take about how amazing Stacy K is ALL day. My husband and I have 3 dogs, and have always struggled to find good a good sitter for them in the past. When we met Stacy almost 2 years ago, our dogs have never received better care, and we have never felt so stress free while leaving town because we know that our babies are in the best hands. Stacy makes sure they get their walks, rain or shine, and gives them so much of her time and love. She is punctual, reliable, understands animals and their behavior, a very good communicator, and has the biggest heart. We trust Stacy explicitly with our dogs, which is not something that we have ever been able to say about any pet sitter before her. She has made our live much better and our trips away more enjoyable ♥️
Stacy is the dogs sitter that we have always dreamed of having! She took such amazing care of our 3 medium/large dogs while my husband and I were out of town for 5 nights. She was very easy to communicate with, kept our pups exercised, and sent me lots of pictures and videos of the dogs which I always appreciate! We would highly recommend Stacy to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
I use Stacy when I am away on vacation. She takes such good care of my dog and gives her so much love and attention while I am gone. She sends me updates and pictures of her and keeps me updated on how she is doing. Stacy loves animals and your pets like her own. I highly recommend her to take care of your babies - they will be in good hands and you can enjoy your vacation without worrying how your babies are doing.
Stacy is AMAZING! Our cats love her and she does a great job taking care of your home and pets while you’re away. Next time you plan a trip, call Stacy and don’t stress about your home and pets!
Stacy was the absolute best! We feel so assured and at ease with not only the care of our beloved furbaby, but also the safety of our home in Stacy’s care while we’re away. Safety is of optimal importance for us with home care. Stacy goes above and beyond and we are incredibly grateful to her. Prior to finding Stacy, Georgia was often exasperated after coming home from boarding. We figured it was because she didn’t sleep or eat much due to the change of environment. Now that we have Stacy, we don’t have to worry about how she’s faring without us. Our pup gets to stay at home, and she loves Stacy like another family member — and the cost is equivalent to boarding, with individualized attention to our pup’s high maintenance needs. WIN/WIN Thanks Stacy! ~The Ferrara Family
I have been contacting Stacy K for the last 3 years to take care of my Kitties while we go on vacation. She is super sweet she even sends pictures of our fur babies while she sits and visits with them for a while. If you need a pet sitter Stacy is your girl. Great price and super reliable!
We LOVE Pampered Pets! They take such good care of our little Mochi! She has a blast there. They always post pictures to update us while we are away. All of the care staff are very loving with the pups!
We have been taking our little “Apple” to Pampered Pets for her vacation while we are on ours since she was very young.She loves it. The minute she gets there she runs away her little tail going fifty miles an hour and never looking back. She loves playing with the other doggies and sitting on the owners lap. The facility is spotless. We recommend Pampered Pets without reservation.
I board my dog Paco here and he loves it here. Fabulous staff and always a pleasure to chit chat with the owner, Kathy Castillo.
Wow..perfect place to take your dogs !!! They take such good care of them we will definitely be bringing them back
We took our 2 small dogs there for 10 days and they did very well-the place is clean and the owner is very sweet.
The dogs are always well cared for and the dogs play a lot all day long with each other. My dog loves going there because he gets to play with all the other dogs. When I leave my dog there and go out of town, I feel totally confident that he will be taking care of and fed and loved on!
Always feel good leaving my Alonzo with Aunt Kathy and crew.
River dogs resort is absolutely amazing! I am a bit overly protective of my dog and I never hesitate to leave him at River dogs resort. He can tell when we’re pulling into their driveway and is immediately excited. He gets to play with lots of friendly dogs all day and I never have to worry about how he is doing. The owner, Dina, is a true dog lover and treats all the dogs as if they are her own. She is flexible and always looking out for what will be best for your dog. My dog is an 85 pound German shepherd mix who has lots of energy and he always comes home happy and tired. You should look no further if you want a place your doggo will love.
Our dogs love Dina and being at River Dogs. She treats them like family. She has been flexible with us, and we trust her to care for our dogs
River Dogs is a home-away-from-home for our 2-year-old Golden Retriever, Emma. She is always in a good mood after we pick her up. The owner, Dina, is very good at communication and sends photos during Emma’s stays, which are always appreciated. I would recommend highly recommend boarding your dog here.
River Dogs is considered a second home for my dogs. I have been a faithful client for over two years (2-3 days a week) and have only great things to say. The owner Dina, and all of the other staff at River Dogs ensure that my dogs are safe and looked after, that they have fun and come home tired, and that I have complete peace of mind when they are under their care. The Resort is well maintained, and the location is very convenient. My dogs love Dina, they are always so excited to see her, and I love Dina for always working with me and taking great care of my babies. Consistent, reliable, caring, willing, and professional.
River Dogs is the best! our dog loves it there and the owner is so nice and helpful and loves dogs! our flight was canceled at Christmas and rescheduled for days later after we had already dropped our dog off. River Dogs extended our kennel time so we could spend longer with family and took such good care of her. so helpful and understanding!!!!! will always go there!!!
We’ve been bringing our dog here for the past five years and it’s so nice to have a dependable spot when heading out of town. Our dog loves staying at River Dogs and each time I feel confident that he is well cared for and having fun. He always comes back tired and happy!
Yep, a 5 star review for Dina and River Dog Resort! We needed a last minute fun and safe spot for our 12 yo American Foxhound and were so happy Dina had an opening for Chuck. Shortly after arriving, Chuck was adventurous and tried to escape by scaling a fence but Dina did not let that affect her ability to provide safe and loving care for his stay. Upon our return she told us what happened and figured out solutions for his next stay communicating in a professional, caring and understanding way. We are impressed and highly recommend RDR!
Our boxer Abbey LOVES going to see Miss Dina every week! Abbey always has such a fun time playing with her dog buddies. We also board our dog here a few times a year and always know she will be very well taken care of. River Dogs Resort is such a great location and we will never go anywhere else!
Dina and her staff have been taking care of our two large dogs for about 5 years now! They were always responsive and easy to do pick ups and drop offs. The pups were always well cared for, happy to go(could not wait to get taken back to play!!), and exhausted when we picked them up! We were very sad to move away because it was such a wonderful gift to have found such a caring place for our fur-babies! I recommend them without any hesitation!!!
We have always been a let's-find-a-house-sitter type family. We were in a pinch and River Dogs came to the rescue! We have ditched a house sitter completely now, as our rambunctious golden puppy loves to wrestle and play in their large yard while our small dog hangs out, snuggles and shares kisses with Dina. We highly recommend giving River Dogs a whirl!
Read the reviews, they speak for themselves! I was not sure when I first saw the place as all you see is cinderblock walls and fencing, but it was clean. We have tried 3 other kennels in the area before finding this place 3 years ago. There's a difference between taking care of your animal vs providing a second home for your loved one. Rebecca and Caitlyn are animal lovers and convey it in ways they would not think twice about! We were worried the first time but got a text in the middle of our trip giving us a positive update on our dog...very thoughtful! He seems to know them as he wags his tail and goes up to them on his own (our vicious little protector doesn't normally do that (Yorkie)).
We love this kennel and will never take our dog anywhere else! We have been taking our Bernese Mountain Dog to the kennel for over a year now and it has been wonderful. The owners and staff are so nice and take such good care of each and every dog. I know my dog will be well taken care of. Previous kennels we have tried; when we picked our dog up he would always growl when we tried to pet him (which shows that he was abused). But after picking him up from Blue Ridge he didn’t growl and was his normal happy self.
We have taken our 2 dogs here many times. I love the staff! They are very friendly and love my dogs. We had to leave them once for multiple weeks. I would expect my dogs to not want to go the next time. But quite frankly, they cried and jumped all over when I drove into the parking area. They were SO EXCITED to be there! It was amazing and makes me feel very comfortable when I drop them off now, for sitting. I highly recommend them for your dog sitting needs.
We got a GSP puppy at the beginning of the year and the folks at Blue Ridge have been helpful and encouraging as we've adjusted to the GSP lifestyle. They're amazing! The dog is happy to stay with them and comes home healthy and clean
Blue Ridge Kennels has been such a gem to find since moving to SF! We travel every few months and it is the only place we feel comfortable leaving our GSP! They provide him with enough attention, exercise and love so we don’t have to feel bad about leaving him. We unexpectedly had to stay in NY longer during our last trip and they were very accommodating keeping him the extra days.
We boarded our 7 month old lab here while we were out of town, it was my first time ever boarding a pup and everyone was so sweet and caring. He came back happy and exhausted! While picking him up Steve took the time to answer questions I had regarding hunting and training. I would definitely recommend!
Blue Ridge Kennels is where we’ve been taking our pup for the last year or so. Best kennel hands down and they have a great military discount too! The folks there are very kind and will always text me updates and photos of my dog. I have peace of mind taking her here when I’m gone.
Steve is great with dogs. My callie had a great time at blue ridge kennels. I don't think she missed home to much. She is happy to be home now, and we missed her while at puppy camp. Rebecca also did a great job socializing her with the other girls at the kennel.
My GSP just came back from the two week gundog-kindergarten training. The staff at the facility are extremely caring for the dogs. Steve turned my puppy into a lifelong hunting companion, and for that, I am grateful. Steve also has great patience for those that are new to bird dog training. He will take the time to explain the "do's and don'ts" while you hunt with your bird dog.
I boarded my dog with training here for three weeks while away for work. Been over a month since I got her back and can't speak to any training done since I still haven't talked to the trainer. The one obedience item I asked to work on was her jumping on people and that has been worse since I got her back. First clue was the kid who brought her out let her jump all over him. It appears I paid for training and just got boarding. The neighbors could have done that and saved me a grand.
Once again, my fur baby Pete spent the weekend at 29 Palms Pet Resort. By far the best place to have him boarded. Pete seems to think of it as a vacation each time he pays a visit. I have considered boarding closer to my home in Sacramento, but choose to drive to Woodland as I know that Renee and her staff provide excellent care. While away from home I can relax and enjoy knowing that my baby is in good hands. Thank you Renee!
We lost our house to the fires and have 3 Pit Bulls, Renee took my pitties to board no problem. I've known Renee as a client from working at Animal Care Clinic of Woodland for many years. She is a wonderful animal person and a beautiful soul. I am thankful for the help she is providing not only for my family but she is going above and beyond to help others affected by the fires as well.
I have now boarded my dogs multiple times at 29 Palms. My drop offs and pick ups went smoothly. Renee was courteous and friendly each time. I’m sad to see others say different. I will continue to use this establishment for my boarding needs.
We have been taking our dogs to this Pet Resort for 15 Years. We drop them off every summer for 3 weeks. They have been extremely well cared for meds, fed rice at times needed and visited with other dogs they knew. One of the few kennels with outdoor runs for dogs. Owner loves and is devoted to all dogs. Manages a dog rescue org. We highly recommend this resort.
29 Palms pet resort us the bomb! My little Willy Wonka loves to come and spend the night. He loves his "auntie Renee". Rotts Of Friends is a great place to adopt a dog. Renee the owner is very protective of the animals in her care. You get a 6 week free group training class. Training both owners and dogs.
Best place for my pups & me! I know they are safe and I can rest easy when my sweeties are there!
Facility well set up for the dogs. The owner has many years experience with multiple breeds of dogs, including big, high drive ones.
Great place to board your dogs. I've had nothing but positive interactions & my dog loves coming here.
Had a horrible experience here. If your looking for a place to keep a loved one when on vacation look elsewhere, believe me you and your furry pal will be better off.
Excellent place for your dogs to visit, my super high energy dogs LOVE it!
We are so lucky to have Barking Meow here in town. We have two kitties that needed care for five days. One of them takes a daily pill and for that reason we have not gone on vacation as a family for over three years. We found Barking Meow and for the past five days they took care of our cats with love, kindness, and care. We were able to go on vacation worry free and returned to happy kitties. You guys are awesome and we will go on more vacations now! Thank you!
Cannot express how wonderful this business and its owners are. We've used them a few times for drop in care of our cats while out of town, and have always been impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail, flexibility in requests, and most of all their sincere care of our pets. But this past week, we were absolutely blown away with how over the top Jen went in helping care for one of cats who was diagnosed with renal failure, while we ourselves were going through our own personal medical issues out of town. She quite literally saved our kitty's life by finding a vet ER with space, transporting him to and from the hospital, keeping us in the loop every step of the way. And all with the utmost compassion. She even texted the morning after we were all home to check in. We cannot speak highly enough of this company. Especially Jen. Thank you for lightening our load in the midst of a tough week. Recommend with 10 stars!!!
Barking Meow Pet Solutions does a fantastic job at caring for your pets. I have never used any pet sitting companies in the past and found them listed in Vacaville's Best, Jen and Brian are wonderful. They set up a meet and greet with you and your pets to go over their routine and any specific needs they may have, very thorough with taking notes and asking questions. What I enjoyed most about their service was the pet check in notifications in which you are able to see time stamped pictures of your pets, GPS location of the visit and can keep track of their water and food being refilled and refreshed as well as the litter being clean. If you are looking for a pet sitting company that will give you 100% peace of mind while you are out traveling, I highly recommend Barking Meow Pet solutions. I will certainly be requesting their services in the future.
Jen and team were amazing and so professional. I cannot recommend them enough! We had just moved to the area when we had to leave our 2 cats. It was so nice being able to leave them in our new home rather than worry about boarding them to minimize the stress/disruption. When we came home, they were both waiting in the kitchen for Jen--and were so disappointed it was US who walked through the door ha! We got pictures and updates every day and they were so kind in bringing in mail/boxes and taking out our trash. Will absolutely use again in the future and would recommend to anyone!
Outstanding service and caring people. I have worked with Jen for nearly 4 years. She has recently expanded her business and her husband Brian joined the team. They are very accommodating and care for my fur baby like I would, which is important to me. Being an owner of a senior bulldog comes with many challenges. Jen and her company ensure quality, knowledgeable, trustworthy and reliable care. She is a life saver helping me with morning walks, check-ins and care regularly and while I am away on vacation. They even have a nice new van equipped with crates to travel safely with your pup. I love their app as well and look forward to pics and updates from their walks. Thank you Barking Meow Pet Solutions!
We have used Jennifer with Barking Meow Pet Solutions for five or more years. The first time we left Maddie, we were concerned about how she would be with a sitter. It's a great feeling to know when you are away that your pet is being cared for like you would. Whenever we are away Jennifer sends us pictures and messages about how Maddie is doing. Jennifer is dependable, credentialed and knowledgeable about caring for pets. We would never leave our Maddie with anyone else. When it's time for drop- off she goes right inside without hesitation like its her second home. They are the best and we highly recommend Jennifer, Bryan and crew!!
I can’t say enough good things about Barking Meow Pet Solutions. We are fairly new to the area and we interviewed a lot of pet sitters. Jen and Brian got to know our two corgis and the dogs just loved them. We left them with Jen and Brian while we went on vacation for 10 days. Our fur babies were walked, fed, and played with and loved. We received pics and updates everyday. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my fur babies. We have even used Jen and Brian for dog walking when our schedule gets packed. They are wonderful and our corgis love them too. S. Brown
We just recently had to board our 3 dogs who have not been out of our care for YEARS. I was nervous how they would respond to us being gone until I had our meet and greet with these wonderful people. They are so caring and welcoming! They have a fantastic set up at their home which makes it that much more easily adjustable for the pups. We got text/picture updates everyday and they are very responsive to any questions I had. We will definitely be using their services again and would 100% recommend them to every pet owner!
A friend recommended Jen and I'm so glad she did! I needed a sitter for my two cats, for an upcoming vacation. At our first meeting I was instantly impressed with how organized Jen was. She took detailed notes about both cats' personalities, habits, diet & feeding schedule, prescriptions, emergency instructions, etc. We agreed on two visits per day. At the end of each visit she texted me a link to "Doggy Logs," which detailed her visit - arrival & departure times, food, water, litter box emptied, etc., including photos of my cats! Best of all, Doggy Logs has GPS so you can rest assured Jen is at your home when she says she is. I trusted her completely, in my home and with my beloved boys. I've used Barking Meow Pet Solutions twice and would happily do so again!!
Jennifer and Brian are the best. They have been walking my dogs for 2.5 years. My dogs love them and so do I. They are so professional and extremely organized. I dont know what I would do without them. They have decreased so much stress for me. I highly recommend them....1000%!!
