Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Chris was an outstanding pet sitter and I would definitely use him again! He is reliable, responsible, and thorough. I was able to FaceTime Chris prior to the sit and he spent a lot of time answering and asking questions. I felt confident after speaking with him. Throughout the weekend, Chris communicated clearly through texting. He let me know when he arrived and left which was helpful. He also sent photos and updates of both my cats. My boy cat has occasional anxiety issues which cause UTI's. Andy had a flare up while I was away and Chris was very attentive to him and let me know how he was doing. Chris did not seem to mind taking extra care of him which I very much appreciate. Chris left my house clean and even washed the sheets and towels he used before leaving!
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
I highly recommend Daniel as a pet sitter and house sitter! He took care of Pipa for over three months this winter and did an outstanding job. From the first day, it was clear that he had a genuine love for animals and a great deal of experience with pets. He was very attentive to his needs and always made sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and had plenty of playtime. In addition to his pet-sitting duties, Daniel also went above and beyond by processing my postal mail and keeping the house well-organized. He was very responsible and reliable, always arriving on communicating, putting the bins out, and watering the plants on time, and keeping me updated with photos and messages. I felt completely at ease knowing that my cat was in such good hands and that my home was well-cared for while I was away. When I returned from my trip, Pipa was happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, thanks to Daniel's excellent care. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet and house sitter!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Oh my gosh, I am so happy that I found Nicole! My dog was so fearful and anxious that I was never comfortable leaving her over night with anyone! Nicole understood exactly what to do to earn my little girl’s trust. I now know that I can leave town without worry or guilt. What a relief! Thank you, Nicole!
Nicole has such a sweet and kind personality. Her yard is perfect for my dog Wally. I could immediately tell he was comfortable as soon as we stepped into her place. She send me videos and pictures as promised! So happy to have found someone we trust with our baby. Thank you so much Nicole!!
Nicole is dependable and trustworthy. She takes care of our pets with love. We have used her multiple times to care for our 2 large breed (>100lb) dogs and a cat. She is safely able to navigate dog anxiety and aggression. She is reliable and focused. I trust her 100% and recommend her without hesitation. Use her for your next vacation, she wont dissapoint.
Nicole has gone above and beyond to help our dog. Absolutely amazed how much energy and attention she gives in not only keeping an eye on our dog but improving as a pet. She has given us so many ideas of how to work with his behavior and instincts to make him a better dog and us better owners. She is constantly suggesting training methods based on the behaviors our pup is showing. Completely blown away and could not recommend enough for a safe and positive environment. Thank you Nicole
We have been taking our big rescue "Hank" to Nicoles house for about 5-6 months, so i can give an accurate review now. Nicole is so amazing with Hank and his care. I think shes a dog and "all animal" whisperer since she can take care of any animal. She is also so loving and can take care of any situation that may arise. Hank was sick once and she went above and beyond to take extra care of him! Hank jumps out if my car and runs straight for her door every time i drop him off, so i know he loves it there. She also sends me so many wonderful pics and videos throughout the day when the animals are resting. Nicole will also honor any special requests you may have, and you can trust she will do whatever you request. She also has a huge fenced in, safe, backyard! And she can offer so many great extra services like a bath, grooming, pickup, dropoff, etc. I cant say enough but I highly recommend Nicole to everyone!
The owner and proprietor of this organization was terrific. She was attentive to my pets, followed the instructions that I gave her and was very sweet with my pets. She sent me pictures of my pets and gave me updates on how they were doing.She even clipped my dog’s nails . I would definitely encourage my best friends to use this service. I feel totally confident in her Veterinary Assistant and pet sitting skills .
Nicole is AMAZING!! She is attentive to the pets and the parents. We are super pleased with her skills, knowledge, reliability, care, and the love she has for animals. We love the pictures, and videos she sends us when she comes to watch the kiddos! She takes the time to go over EVERY detail with you. We couldn’t be happier and are extremely pleased to have such an awesome pet sitter, and our boys are in wonderful hands as they remain in their comfort zone.
Nicole kept my dog overnight, she was knowledgeable and friendly. Her house is set up nicely for pet sitting, with a system in the backyard to let your dogs have supervised/separate outside time. I’ve struggled with pet sitting services since my dog used a cart, but this was something she took in stride. I received updates and photos, her communication was excellent. I will book again, and would recommend her to my friends.
Nicole is an amazing pet sitter. She goes above and beyond taking care of Mr. Armani’s (Cooper) every whim. We were gone quite a time and she sent pictures of all that he did as well as videos. She brushed him, gave him back rubs, changed water and litter everyday, and just gave him lots of love. He looked forward to her wonderful visits.
I was looking for someone to do drop-in visits for my 2 Boston terriers while I was going to be out of town. I was referred to Nicole by a friend, and she offered to do a meet and greet with me and the girls. Afterwards, she wrote me a comprehensive quote for the week with all of the services we had discussed. She even offered to trim their nails which I thought was a great add-on, since they hate for me to do it! Nicole is punctual, reliable, and professional. She is warm and patient with my silly and rambunctious dogs. I'd recommend her for any pet services you're looking to hire!
Miranda has been our sitter for almost a year already, she is very reliable and very good at communicating with us. Our dogs get very excited when she comes to pick them up for their regular walks. Our dogs have also stayed with her for boarding, she was able to take care of them for long periods of time and provide them with the care they need especially with their medical conditions as one of our dogs has addison’s disease and they are both senior dogs. If you want your dog to stay in a clean home environment having a good time with other dogs, then definitely contact her 😊
I’m more than obsessed with Pet Obsession because Miranda is the world’s best pet walker and sitter for my precious Polly 😍. I get pictures from her from every visit and when I come back Polly is always happy and healthy. I wouldn’t leave her with anyone else bc she’s my treasure so if you’re in Gainesville and need to leave your furry family member behind reach out to them !
Miranda always does a fantastic job taking care of my senior beagle. She is very professional, caring and detail oriented . She communicates well and keeps me informed with texts and pictures of my pup whenever we are away. I always have peace of mind and no worries knowing Gipsy is being well taken care of. I highly recommend Miranda and will definitely use her again.
Miranda is wonderful! I was nervous about leaving my baby with someone I didn’t really know, but she has been extremely caring as if looking after her own. Sends me several photo and videos throughout the day to show me how much fun she is having. I give the highest of recommendations to anyone needing someone to look after their fur baby. 😊
My dogs were taken great care of. They are wonderful and gave my dogs lots of attention. I love that I get an update and a picture every day. I will definitely use Pet Obsession again. Thank you and my babies will see you again soon.
Miranda has sat with AJ for a few months. From the moment we met for AJs meet and greet Miranda made us feel. She has a very nice house, very clean, and a huge backyard. She is very professional, accommodating and she sends pictures and videos when. AJ is there. AJ loves being there and when I picked she is very happy. I am so grateful I found Miranda and I will be booking days with her and only her.
We’ve taken our Aussie to Pet Obsession for six months now and can’t recommend them enough. Our pup is an anxious dog and she really struggles with new environments and people. But she absolutely LOVES it there. It makes dropping her off really easy.
Pet Obsession dog sitting are now officially the only dog care professionals I trust to take care of my Lila. I’ve dropped my baby off here countless times for daycare and boarding while I was out of town these guys were always amazing to work with. So understanding and loving and the best part is by doggie always comes back happier than when I dropped her off
Our bulldog loves going to see Miranda. We couldn’t be happier with her care for our pup. Highly recommend her services.
Miranda is an angel to all fur babies! I had her watch my two pups and kitten and she was just a beautiful soul to them. She would always send me updates and pictures which were my favorite kind of updates! She also did not hesitate to ask me any questions which I appreciated very much. My fur babies became fur friends with her babies. He fur babies are so kind, cuddly, and playful. It was so easy for them to get along, very compatible. I would 110% recommend her to watch your pets for future stays. The Pet Obsession company is well-priced, flexible, and communicative. Not only do I trust her, but having her pet-sit my pups and kitten gave me a lifelong best friend. So, if you need a pet-sitter please give pet-obsession your first consideration; it will never disappoint, I promise!! :)
Our senior, medium sized, rescue dog was very happy with Miss Bonnie. She provided pet sitting for us at our hotel while we went out sight seeing. Our old boy was very content and even wanted to go home with her. Miss Bonnie is very sweet.
Bonnie really loves animals & she is utterly reliable. She has sit for me several times & always comes through. Plus, what a great gal to talk to. She sent photos of our cats (feral rescues) when she could get a glimpse. It was amazing how many were comfortable with her after a week. She's an angel.
Bonnie is an amazing sitter for my sweet, senior dog! She is responsible, attentive, and caring! I can tell she has experience, asks the right questions, and is reliable! I never have to worry that my dog is in good hands. I’m so thankful to have found her! I am def a repeat customer. Thank you, Bonnie! You’re truly a blessing to me and little J :-)
Bonnie is so compassionate! I first met her when she emergency fostered a Great Pyrenees who had suddenly become a Covid orphan. That sweet pup became our precious diva, and Bonnie remains her guardian angel two years later. Luna LOVES going to Bonnie's to stay over when we are out of town - she knows she'll find kindness, expert care, safety, and fun! Bonnie deserves my heartfelt recommendation to care for any of your beloved pets.
Bonnie is awesome!!! We were looking for a pet sitter and I found her website online. I called the number and I knew immediately she was an animal lover and an answer to our prayers. We weren’t going to leave our boys( Guinea pigs) to just anyone. She exceeded our expectations and took great care of them. We were able to take our vacation worry free! They were in the best hands. When we need a sitter again, we will be calling her!😉
We have been working with Bonnie for the last few years, and it has always been a fantastic experience. I never have to worry about my 3 kitties or my 50+ house plants! Bonnie always goes the extra mile and is an excellent communicator. I would recommend her a million times over for your pet care needs!
Bonnie is a wonderful pet sitter. She took great care of my Minnie and Ebby cats. Always received pictures and updates on both of them. Always super kind and supportive during rough times. Thank you so much for the help!
I am not the greatest planner so I often will need to use Bonnie's services at the last minute. Not once has she turned me down! I know that my pittie is in good hands with Bonnie and Joe. They follow his medicine and eating regimen to a tee and even send me daily updates of my pup. Thanks, Bonnie and team!
Bonnie is absolutely fantastic!! She saved the day for us when we were going out of town for the 4th and didn’t have anyone to watch our dog. She went above and beyond to make sure our girl was comfortable and happy. Our dog has social issues and takes a long time to warm up to new people and Bonnie was so flexible and patient with our pup! I could tell how much she loves dogs and wants to do what is best for them! Feeling so thankful for her and can rest easy knowing she is in good hands when we are out of town. She even sent us really impressive pictures of our dog while she was watching her (and let me tell you our pup does not sit well for photos on walks!)
Bonnie is amazing. I have a pup who was abused prior to living with me and so is extremely frightful; so much so that I was worried that I was going to have to give her back or never be able to take a vacation. Bonnie took several hours to come visit me well before I left my pup in her care just so they could get used to each other. Their first day alone together wasn't the greatest, but Bonnie didn't give up. Her patience paid off in the end and they are now thick as thieves. I am eternally grateful for Bonnie. I love the way she operates her business and the piece of mind I have because of her. I cannot recommend her enough.
My pets Howie and Finney are frequent boards at Prestige Resort. They are always very happy when I pick them up. I feel very safe knowing that my pets are well cared for and I will receive a call from a well trained staff member if there are any concerns. Additionally, I like that my pet records are check and reviewed prior to boarding. Thank you!
This is our favorite home-away-from-home. Both our 4-legged boys love to come stay at Prestige Pet Resort! It's like old home week for them. The staff is always attentive and always remember their names. Highly recommended them for all your furry friends
Took my puppies to the groomer here and they did a fantastic job! Super friendly and caring. My puppies were taken care of so well. They were also reasonably priced. Will certainly be back!!
I took my dog there and I was very impressed and pleased with how they took care of my dog. I will definitely take my little sugar plum back, and I would encourage others to do the same.
I decided to use this dog care for the first time. Unfortunately I've to put just 1 star, but not for the care of my dog, it's because of the terrible customer service directly with Miss. Emily (I think she should go to the school to learn the rules of a good speaker and good listener). My dog was very nervous because it was the first time here, he had to be medicated on Friday, the most logical thing is that the customer receives notification of how his behavior is evolving and more if the owner is out of town. I tried to contact the phone number on Saturday and Sunday, but no one answered the phone. Until on Monday that Miss. Emily called me back telling me that they do not answer emails, messages on weekends because the system did not work! When I as a customer and owner of my dog tried to explain my concern about their lack of communication, this lady does not let the customer speak. So friends, what kind of customer service does Prestige Pet Resort &Spa? If the dog's owner is worried, we've to shut up? This company has a Manager? If the system doesn't work for them on weekends don't we've the right to know how our pet is doing? And worst of all, do you have to understand the bad treatment and bad communication these company has customer service??. Unfortunately I do not recommend Prestige Pet Resort & Spa.
The receptionist Latasha greeted us at the door with a warm welcome and friendly smile during a early morning appointment. Charli and Brianna handled my pets with such care and I was really pleased with the overall grooming service we received. Great Job Sherri, Emily, Latasha, Charli, and Brianna! We will definitely return for more services.
This place is clean and treated my cat very well. The boarding for cats is in a seperate room from the dogs. There are options to pay extra to have them in huge 3 story cages and extra playtime, which I felt was worth it. Rven if you do not pay extra theyThey also give you the option to call and check on your pet, which was comforting since this was my first time away from my kitty long-term. The check in was also free. They are cery transpararent with pricing and everyone was very friendly. Overall, I would book here again.
I just read that review above me, and I wanted to say, Emily, I’m sure you just ended up dealing with someone and a situation you probably had no control over. Customer service is always on point. Everyone who works there genuinely loves the dogs in their care and take it very seriously. I will be in with my doggo soon.
Outstanding grooming service. Emily is very caring to the animals and does a great job ensuring all instructions given are followed. She is very personal and always has a great smile when we come for service.
I have used Prestige to board my two dogs. I have used them three times in the past few months for 3-4 days/nights each time. The kennel techs and staff are exceptionally nice and helpful. I have boarded my two pups in the “deluxe suite” option. I have also used Prestige once for a grooming back for my Aussie who has a very thick coat, and the groomer was able to get out thick and dense matted hair that had built up in his butt fluff. The shampoo they used also smelled nice and lasted smelling nice in his hair for at least 2 weeks! I will continue to use Prestige for boarding and grooming!
I have two cats who love attention and need daily wet food, so finding someone reliable to care for them was important when I had to book a last-minute trip for the weekend. Pet Sitters, and especially Tony, have been amazing! Tony has taken care of my kitties for two weekends in a row, spending time playing with them, scooping litter boxes, and making sure they're fed and have fresh water. I really appreciate the picture updates and the convenience of their app for scheduling and payments. It gave me peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands while I was away. Highly recommend!
I can’t recommend Pet Sitters of Gainesville enough. Their walkers are reliable, friendly, and take such good care of my pup. I look forward to reading the walk reports every day. Tony and his employees have also gone and above and beyond to check in on my pup last minute when I was stuck at work. So grateful for them!
Tony and his staff do a great job of taking care of my fur baby. The team is punctual, and goes the extra mile to provide my pet with a great walk each day. Pictures and notes are sent to let me know about how my pet reacted during the walk and if they are feeling well. My experience has been positive and I would recommend Tony and the team to others seeking walking services.
I found Pet Sitters of Gainesville last summer when I first moved to the area and needed a sitter at the last minute for a work trip. Tony and Michael have since sat for my cat several times. They’re very dependable, communicative, and take great care of her, and it’s so convenient for me that everything is organized online (the sitting requests, her feeding instructions, vaccination records, etc.). I would definitely recommend them to others!
We have used Gainesville Pet Sitters for more than a year. All.of the sitters have been more than wonderful with our dogs. They send a report with photos each time they visit. The website is quick and easy to use and very reasonable prices. I highly recommend the pet sitters.
Amazing group of people. My dog is SO happy to get a walk and ball throw in during our workday. We’ve had a few different people come to the house and they all are reliable, super kind and communicative. I trust them fully and it makes my day easier and I feel more at peace knowing my pup is getting quality care and time when I have a long workday. Highly recommend!!!
We highly recommend Pet Sitters of Gainesville. They are dependable and trustworthy. We know our cats will be well cared for while we’re traveling. It’s also great to have someone bring in the mail while we’re gone. If you’re looking for a friendly, caring, and professional pet sitter, look no further! Pet Sitters of Gainesville is it!
Taylor at Per Sitters has been watching our big boy Eggie on a fairly regular basis including trips. I cannot say enough about Taylor and how our otherwise anxious dog is now not anxious when he sees the suitcases come out. And the pics and video we get every morning and evening are golden. My dog is pure joy with Taylor!!! We no longer have to stress about him when we are gone. Thanks so very much Taylor!!
I don’t typically leave reviews but I have been using the service for over 6 months and have no complaints. They dog walkers have great communication and I love that I never have to worry if one person cannot make it what to do because there’s always someone else available. My dogs are picky but they have loved them! I would recommend as a safe and affordable option for your pups!
Taylor Denton was amazing! The whole process was super convenient, and after a thorough meet and greet, I felt comfortable enough to trust them with my baby🥹. Taylor left super detailed notes after each visit and was incredibly detail oriented and sweet with my cat. He is very co-dependent and has FLUTD, which can make it scary to leave him alone, but Taylor made sure to give him lots of love to calm him down and administered his meds on time to prevent any urinary blockages. I’m so happy I finally have someone I can trust to take care of my baby while I’m away and someone he loves to see as well! When I got home, everything was in order and my boy was healthy and happy with a clean litter box. I would highly recommend Pet Sitters of Gainesville, and Taylor Denton especially! Thank you for taking such good care of my sensitive boy 🫶
Can't say enough good things about this place. Jill and her staff are amazing. I love that the dogs are not in a kennel all day and only let out for a few potty breaks. She does not turn dogs away, she finds where they fit best! They are the only ones I trust with my German Shepherd. We have since moved over 30 mins away, but I still only bring him here. She also runs a rescue, so you know she really cares about the dogs. Not only is this place very affordable, the money goes to helping the dogs in her rescue. I'm beyond thankful I found this great place.
Jill and her team have been kind, accommodating, communicative, and compassionate for the last two years we have boarded our golden retriever here in Gainesville. Their prices are incredibly fair and Jill constantly works with our spontaneous requested for overnight boarding. Ody always comes home tired and happy after playing and swimming to his heart’s content. Jill responds to texts and questions quickly and keeps Facebook up to date with how the dogs are doing. Ody is an energetic fella and we are so thankful for this safe environment for him when we travel. We highly recommend Dog’s Rule!
I ended up in a situation where I needed long term boarding around a month .i found Dogs rule in Gainsville FL through word of mouth and I’m extremely thankful I did .Ive used a few number of places in the area and frankly haven’t been remotely happy or impressed with any of them .My dogs are both family pets in a sense but working high driven dogs .They both require someone with the skill set and knowledge to work with them .Higher driven dogs will take a mile if you give them an inch. They provided updates and photos almost daily or whenever I checked,My current dog is still in the early phases of training and I can’t afford for her to go backwards,I was more than blown away to come home from hip rehab to her better than when I dropped her off.She wasn’t kenneled much and spent an extensive amount of time playing,getting to socialize under watchful eyes.That in a sense elevated a lot of work on my end with her,She did well and it showed recently under real world situations. I love that customers don’t come past there main gates elevating any possibility of dogs coming out for a stroll ,some are fast and might run home .Not an issue there because there place is secure .It’s clean you can look in from the front and see that . The employees are amazing as well as the owner ,Your pets are treated like they are there pets .Each one get love and individual attention while spending time there . Other than my parents home and my vet that’s the only place my little lady will go .I live almost 65 miles from there and have a dog boarder down the road literally.Nothing against them but I like the idea that when I’m on vacation so is my k9 when she doesn’t along for the fun .
Do not recommend this place. They tell u they take dogs that are NOT fixed and my dog has been going there for at least a month now & haven’t had any issues. Now all of a sudden it’s a problem. The last day my dog went there I spoke with a black lady who ALWAYS comes to get her or brings her to me when I pick her up and she is definitely amazing. Also the time before that a white lady (never got her name) but was making comments about me needing to get her fixed because there isn’t enough room at the dog pound etc if she was to get pregnant blah blah blah. So I feel like they are bias to dogs not fixed
We have two dogs, Dilly and Leo, that go to Dogs Rule for daycare and boarding. We can’t recommend them enough! Everyone at Dogs Rule is professional, responsive, and trustworthy. We feel safe leaving them there for boarding knowing they will be in good hands and have lots of playtime with other dogs. The staff are excellent and treat us and our dogs like family. Plus, Jill really is a true dog expert. We highly recommend Dogs Rule to anyone looking for a trustworthy place for boarding and/or doggy daycare.
Adopted my baby Mitzy from here. Jill is a Rockstar and I am so grateful 🙏 My Mitzy Girl 💕 goes most days for her exercise and playtime and she literally bounces in the door 🚪 ❤️ Jill is by far one of the best trainers I have ever seen and I have hired quite the bit before. ❤️ You will be amazed and not disappointed with the friendly staff and well behaved dogs.
I would not recommend, this was my first time leaving my dog here since I’m Not from the area. When I left my dog they just took her and I was not able to see the place inside ( maybe this is a normal practice ) but from the start this made me uneasy. I have no idea on where she slept or any other accommodations. Also I asked the girl about if they can send pictures and she said of course as soon as she is settled we will send you some pictures and this did not happen. I texted a couple of times asking how she was and didn’t get anything until the next day. And still No pictures. Picked her up the next morning she was a little Nervous and very hungry, gave her some food and after having my dog for like 3 hrs with me I get some pictures of “cricket is making friend already” or something in those lines… I already had my dog with me, and her name was not cricket… so no I was not impressed.
I took my dog to her first kennel/boarding experience at dogs rule this week; she is a 6 month old puppy and I am very over protective of her! Dogs Rule’s staff made me feel comfortable and I knew she was in good hands. I was given updates about my pup throughout the week, and when I called to check up Jill gave me TONS of info about how she was doing and even some insights on her behavior and how to correct her misbehaving. I was very pleased, I also received a few photos of her during the week. I would definitely recommend taking your dog here, they go above and beyond!
Friendly at first but very small, and dirty on the outside. The photos they use must be pretty old. The staff seems nice at first though but it’s a front. The inside is horrible and has a very foul smell of animal feces and urine. Not allowed inside when you get there, so that you don’t see that, but I was able to open the door and look in when staff wasn’t around and was stunned! Very dirty inside, and I doubt the outside play area is used as anything else other than another bathroom. Our dog is normally exhausted from outside play at other facilities, but wasn’t at all on pickup. Our dog will not ever be going back. I wouldn’t recommend this play to anybody ever!
Oh my god! Dogs do rule here. I had an unforeseen medical emergency at the Gainesville veterans hospital. They came and got my service dog. They took great care of him. They are now my go to sitter. Can’t rate or thank enough.
Absolute gem!!! Would highly recommend. We used Camp Run-A-Mutt while my husband was hospitalized at Shans. Our dog Ellie goes to daycare near where we live, she has NEVER been as excited to go there as we was Run-A-Mutt. She absolutely loved it there! The staff is very nice. It’s clean and professional. I wish they were closer for everyday daycare, but we will definitely make the 3 hour drive for long trips for boarding! They were amazing!
Camp Run-a-Mutt has always been so amazing. My dog Kate loves them so much and never wants to leave when it's time to go home. But this week I am incredibly thankful for them. As a nurse I wasn't sure I was going to be able to get home with the hurricane yesterday. They allowed me to book a last minute boarding for Kate and the peace of mind that I knew my dog was safe and well cared for no matter what happened and I appreciate it so much. And I love that they post their photos so I was able to see Kate being such a good girl and comfortable despite the storm
We loved Camp run a Mutt when we left our dog Scarlett for a week while we were out of the state. We loved the fact that we could watch her on the dog cams while away and that she would be able to play with other dogs freely. On the day of pick up, I spoke with Mike about my arrival time to give him a heads up. Mike was always great. When we came in to pick up Scarlett it was almost closing time and the young lady checking us out informed me that her eye allergies were acting up and that that was why her eye was so red and swollen. Her allergies never cause those symptoms. When we got home we realized how horrible her eye had gotten (red, swollen, almost closed shut and with fluid coming out of the eye) and knew something was seriously wrong. We rushed her to the animal hospital and were told that she had an injury to her left eye and that if we had waited any longer, it could've gotten infected and she could've lost her eye! WHAT!!!??? WHY WERENT WE INFORMED WHEN THIS HAPPENED? HOW MANY DAYS HAD SHE BEEN SUFFERING LIKE THIS!?? I understand that these things can happen but why lie to me and tell me it was her allergies and not that she had gotten hurt!? If we would'nt've listened to our gut instincts, she could have lost her eye! Now Scarlett is taking a whole slew of medicines, wearing a cone and will need several follow up vidits in order to correct the problem and after several hundred dollars spent at the animal hospital all I can say is that I'm super disappointed in the way that run a mutt handled this situation. Everything else was great. But when you don't let us know something happened and pretend the injury is actually allergies acting up, that is unacceptable. For this reason, we'll never use them again.
My mini-labradoodle Bear LOVES to go to his doggy daycare! It keeps us both sane!! I would not think of taking him anywhere else!!
My dog LOVES coming here, I cant say enough great things! The staff has been amazing to all the dogs and doggie parents! Very thankful for this place for our pup and our busy schedules!
LOVE them! My girl Luna has a wonderful time there, always comes home happy, exhausted, and clean! I have some allergies towards dirt but since this place has the grass turf stuff, my girl comes home pretty clean even after a long day and I’m so appreciative of it! They do amazing baths, she’s always so fluffy and well brushed out for a great price. I love the mutt cams and have watched her play with her friends many times before. When I had to board her for Fourth of July (she’s terrified of fireworks), they let me know how they watched Netflix all night and had a wonderful time. Overall wonderful place, I’m so sad to be leaving them since I’m moving to Clearwater but hopefully can bring her back in the future for a day here or there! Also Molly is the best! :)
This place is awesome, we’re so grateful we found a place our pups love! They always take such great care of our 2 doggos. We’ve had great experiences with day camp and extended overnights. I can tell that the kennel-free experience is much less stress on them, they seem much more relaxed than previous places we’ve tried. Our pups can be a little shy or unsure at first and the staff did such a great job getting them acclimated in the beginning, now they get excited whenever we say “wanna go to camp”. Highly recommend!
They took my Lil Buddy Jango for his spa away from home. The young lady met us at the door and gently took him. After registering, I comfortably left Jango in their hands. After about 45 minutes, I was called and told that Jango would be ready for me. CRAM did an excellent spa treatment. His nails are perfect. I highly recommend this service to anyone needing a quality groomer. Very Green Book comfortable.
I can't say enough positive things about this business but I will try. When my husband and I first brought in our 4 month old Aussie for her temperament test we were EXHAUSTED from weeks of potty training, crate training, training in general and just being new puppy parents with full time careers. I'll be honest I could be a bit of a helicopter parent but as soon as we stepped into CRAM Brandi and Michael immediately gained our trust and loyalty. They are clearly made for this job and I don't think anyone could possibly bring the enthusiasm and care that they bring to their job everyday. I love that the mom in me can log on and check how all the dogs are doing, and every time I do I see our girl having the time of her life with her pals. We have also been able to take advantage of the boarding and it is just as wonderful. We realize with the type of dog we have she would be absolutely miserable cooped up for a weekend at a regular boarding place. This really gives me the peace of mind that she is getting to live her best dog self and gain great socializing experience in a safe environment. I really appreciate the fact that the entire staff treats these animals as their own pets. Thank you for all you do! We have enjoyed our time so far at CRAM and can't wait to go back!
After our last day camp closed we were referred to Camp Run-A-Mutt by a friend and our pup couldn't be happier! They have so much room for the dogs to run around, an awesome water fountain (which is good because our dog is part hippo), plenty of obstacles, and shady spots and beds for naps. The place is absolutely spotless, and best of all--you can watch your pup play all day on their live-feed cameras. These cameras also give you some peace of mind because you know what your pup has been up to all day, and you can see the staff interacting with them--always in a professional manner, not only with dogs, but with people as well. I love that you don't need to call to schedule a slot for your pup, and that they're open on Saturdays and for overnight boarding (which honestly looks like an awesome slumber party). Camp Run-A-Mutt is slightly pricier than our old camp, but they give discounts for referrals and a UF staff/student discount, and we feel that the bump up in quality is definitely worth the cost. Thanks for making our pup so tired and taking such good care of him.
We recently entrusted our dogs to Boarding with Barbii for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the start, Barbii was incredibly professional, warm, and attentive, making us feel completely at ease leaving our fur babies with her. She provided regular updates, complete with photos, so we always knew how they were doing. It was clear that our dogs were comfortable and happy in her care, and she treated them like her own. When we picked them up, they were calm, well cared for, and even seemed a little sad to leave! We highly recommend Boarding with Barbii to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitting service. We’ll definitely be using her services again!
Boarding with Barbii took such great care of all our animals. Sent multiple videos to us; we were able to see how happy and well taken care of they were. Barbii was so gracious and did all of this for our family/pets on extreme short notice due to hurricane Milton in our area. We highly recommend her services and if we ever evacuated to her area we would certainly use her business again...and we will be telling everyone we know for future evacuations!!
Barbii did an excellent job keeping my dog for the weekend. He was well taken care of and happy he even got to do a meet and greet for the first time. I recommend if you are going to book just do it you won’t be disappointed she’s the best!!!
Barbii took great care of my dogs on short notice. She is very kind and knowledgable and my pups had a great time with her. By the time I picked them up they were exhausted from playing with other pups.
FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!!!!! Not only was it short notice but it was also a holiday weekend! Barbii was very nice and professional and made me feel so comfortable leaving my two fur babies with her! She posted updates on them and was just absolutely amazing all the way around!!!!
Awesome experience,Barbii took care of my 3 fur babies..they are a wild bunch but she loved them as if they were her own and she gives great baths! Barbii is the one!!
Barbii is so sweet and caring! You can have total peace of mind, knowing your pet is getting the best and most attentive care possible!
We’ve been using Jazz’s wonderland to board our dogs for the past few years and have only had positive experiences. Every staff member is sweet and caring with the dogs and remember my dogs even when we haven’t been in a while. One of my dogs is skittish and takes a while to warm up but the staff always takes extra time to make her comfortable. They even provide daily report cards with pictures. In the past we’ve tried numerous pet sitters but no one compares to Jazzs wonderland, there’s no one else we would trust with our pups. Highly recommend them!
Ana is very approachable and accommodating. I feel comfortable leaving my toy poodle with her and the team. I have used Jazz's for boarding and daycare on several occasions over the past year. The property is really beautiful and the business has well organized systems in place that make it effortless to book services and drop off/pick up your dog. You can add numerous services to your booking like yummy treats or a bath. My dog seems to be better behaved after spending time at Jazz's! I'm very grateful they're in my area!
I was set to go out of town yesterday for the night when I had a Rover fail. I panicked but remembered several friends telling me about how wonderful Jazz’s Wonderland is. I decided to give them a call and see if they could help me out in a pinch. They were so kind and understanding and immediately told me what I needed to submit to them (proof of up to date vaccines) in order to get my dog in on the same day. They usually require a meet and greet, but they knew I didn’t really have any options right then. I let them know my dog was super friendly and plays well with other dogs all the time with no issues. Within an hour, they had approved him and he was off to meet his new buddies. They updated me on how he was doing via text and sent pictures for me to see him playing with his new friends. I picked up one happy camper today and Jazz’s has a new loyal customer where I will be boarding him moving forward. I cannot recommend this place enough. The staff were super friendly throughout this entire experience. 5 stars.
I love this place! I looked at a few others and they all seemed very corporate and not a place where I felt comfortable leaving my dog- it felt like she would just be a number. Jazz Wonderland feels like you are leaving your dog with friends that love dogs. It's a great set up. The areas for the dogs are not too big and not too small. The employees are all young, enthusiastic and animal lovers. The pricing is honest and straight forward. They don't charge extra to let your dog in the play yard more (that is not in the dogs' best interests!!). They are all on the same schedule - as it should be! I take my girl there once or twice a week for socialization and mental stimulation (much safer than dog parks- the dogs are all vetted) and leave her there overnight when needed (once for 2 weeks which was HARD) but she came back happy,.healthy and properly rested. Scheduling could not be easier or more convenient. I feel lucky to have found this wonderful place!
Sport was a Jazz camper for the first time this Christmas and loved it! He’s a high energy golden retriever and came home happy and worn out. The staff took great care of Sport and gave me updates and pics during his stay which was very reassuring and much appreciated. Highly recommend!
We recently took our boy Bandit to Jazz's for his first daycare/boarding stay and I'd say it looks like he had a blast! I needed last minute boarding for him and they were so kind and accommodating even with him never having stayed with them before. Bandit it an Australian Cattle Dog puppy full of energy and I was so happy to see how tired he was when we picked him up- it means he had SO much fun running around and expending that energy with other pups! The staff seems truly passionate about what they do, were professional, and made me feel very comfortable with leaving our boy in their care. Their play areas appear to be good sizes, are clean, and have high fences for those escape artists. I love the pics they send of the pups and the available sweet treats you can add on for your pups stay! We have found our new favorite spot for doggy daycare and boarding. :) Thank you guys!
My pup goes FERAL when she knows she gets to go to Jazz's. She jumps out of my car and runs straight in! I feel comforted knowing she loves her time at daycare so much. Ana and the team take such good care of my Jessie girl, and they provide photos and videos so that I can stay updated. Can't recommend this place enough
We absolutely love taking our pups to Jazz’s Wonderland! Our fur babies get so excited to go & play with other dogs during day stays! I know they are in fabulous hands, too - staff are so personable, communicative, and think of everything! The whole system works seamlessly. We even occasionally add on extras like a bath. Just look at the face of this happy pooch - her day spa apparently wrapped up with an adorable bow! Big thanks to Jazz & team!
Our pup Harper loves Jazz’s. We needed to start taking her pretty young to go on a trip and were quite nervous but they did a great job keeping her safe and happy and my mind at ease with many photos. She now goes several times per week while I am at work and always leaves happy and tired. She once had an ankle sprain and they did a great job communicating her condition and ensuring it was handled how I thought best. Staff has always been kind and responsive to texts. Reasonably priced for daycare, boarding, and baths. The only improvement would be if there were live cameras like other puppy care places in town.
We love Jazz’s! When moving to the area we went on a quest to find the best doggy day care for our little bernedoodle. When we came to Jazz’s we knew this was going to be the place where our pup would be the happiest. I love the facility and how they take care of the dogs. When ever it’s a daycare day (my dog can tell because they request that your dog wear a collar and he doesn’t typically wear one otherwise) my dog jumps around in circles at the front door when I put his collar on and then when we arrives at Jazzs he runs through the gates. I highly recommend:)
Our dog LOVES Honey Paws. Taryn is so wonderful with the all of the dogs and provides an excellent place for them to stay and play. The rooms for the dogs are so much better than the crates at most boarders. We would whole-heartedly recommend Honey Paws to anyone looking to board their dog.
Taryn provides the dogs a safe and loving environment. Our JRT always has so much fun when he goes for a couple days when we are out of town. There is a large enclosed area for the dogs to run around, dig and play. Plenty of trees for shade. Each dog has his own room and aren't in a kennel setting. We love Honey Paws!
Honey Paws is the BEST for many reasons. It is the best deal in town for dog boarding and dog day care. Taryn, the owner, has a large fenced in yard that is shaded for the dogs. Our dog LOVES to dig holes in their yard. Taryn has dogs of her own so your dog will never have to play alone. Plus when it gets too warm outside there are air condition rooms for your dog. The rooms are large and your dog has one completely to themselves. Taryn is amazing and very easy to work with. For example, our dog has sensitive skin so Taryn has a t-shirt for her to wear. I cannot say enough good things about this business and the owner! One suggestion - book early during the holidays because she fills up fast!
I boarded my English Bulldog for the first time during the Holiday season with Taryn and had a great experience! She was very easy to keep in touch with during my vacation, very reasonable and I could tell that my dog just had a good time while he was away from us. I loved how it was on a farm and just felt like a good environment for my English to be in. I highly recommend using her and we will be going back 😀
HONEY PAWS IS " THE BEST OF THE BEST" TARYN LOVES ANIMALS AND TREATS MY DOG "ANGEL" AS IF IT WAS HER OWN DOG> WE LOVE HER.
My dog Suki loves staying at Honey Paws, Taryn is the best.
Lots of choices and great place to browse
Good animal shop for your family
