It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
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.
I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Jeanne is a repeat pet sitter for us. She is wonderful and takes great care or our cats and our home. We have peace of mind when we travel knowing our kitties are under her care.
Windy & Dustin are some of my top go-tos! They are wonderful sitters who I can trust to take care of my cats and goats and love them like their own! They are so respectful of my house and are always flexible with me when plans change last minute.
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

Tropic Tails Farm is an AMAZING place to board or daycare your dog. I was so concerned about leaving my pup for 2 weeks, but Mark and Guido were just awesome. I brought my JJ there to try out for a day of daycare and he did so well. Then I boarded him for the 2 weeks over the holidays. I recieved pictures/videos daily and it made me so happy because I have never left my dog before. The dogs were constantly supervised, and I loved that the dogs were not kept in crates. They ran around outside in an astonishing beautiful farm and resided inside in a perfect home environment, without being locked up. I HIGHLY reccomend Tropic Tails Farm and Guido and Mark for dog daycare and boarding. I will DEFINITELY be using them again.
Absolutely could not recommend Guido and Mark more! They treat our pup like their own. We’ve been sending out 120lb mutt, Barley, there for about 3 years now. He absolutely loves going and always comes home happy and tired. We love that he gets to play with other dogs of all sizes and has so much room to run around. We travel quite often and they always have availability. The photos & videos we receive are always adorable
We have used Tropic Tails Farm several times and have been very pleased. Our dog Jasper loves to go out and see Guido and Mark . We joke and say sometimes Jasper doesn’t want to come home back with us because he loves it so much! When we leave him there we have piece Of mind that he is getting taking care of . We also love the pics or videos they send updating us. We highly recommend them for anyone looking.
One of the best dog Sitters of all times for your Dog ! No matter what size. Very knowledgeable and conscientious! Caring and lovable people ! Guido & Mark. Take care of your pet as if it were there own. They also have one of the most beautiful property around! Very well maintained, clean. They are very meticulous & Friendly! The dogs get to play with each other outside and inside. Not fenced in in the cage. They are free to roam the grounds. He even has a lake there. Which my dog enjoys the water. I have been going there for almost 3 years now and take my pet every 3 weeks. I could not find a better place in all of Fort Myers to take my dog as far as I'm concerned thank you very much! Tropic tails farm!
We love this place and our dogs do too! We have been using Guido for our dogs for over 3 years now and they always spoil our dogs and send video updates. It’s a vacation for our dogs on their property. They have several acres for the dogs to roam and a beautiful home. They’re very flexible with pick ups and drop offs and have always been available when we need them. I know I don’t have to worry about them at all when they are with Guido!
We've been bringing our dogs(currently 4) to Tropic Tails Farm for almost 7 years and would never consider boarding them elsewhere.The expansive park-like grounds and cage-free indoor spaces are like nothing to be found elsewhere. Our Fab 4 love it there and Guido texts videos of them to us while we're away. The dogs always get excited every time I turn onto Orange River Loop to drop them off. Keep up the great work Guido and Mark!
We just picked up Charleigh & Gracie after spending a week at Tropic Tails Farm. When we dropped them off they were so excited that they didn’t even care that we were leaving. 😊 Tropic Tails Farm is a Hidden Paradise for all to see. Both dogs were clean upon picking them up. It’s obvious that Guido & Mark love dogs by the way you see the dogs respond to them. We feel very comfortable leaving our dogs in Guido’s & Mark’s care.
They are the best! We have been taking our Labrador here for years. As we turn down their street, his tail is already wagging with excitement! They always welcome our boy with open arms and send photos throughout his time there.. which helps ease a doggy family’s mind knowing he’s happy and taken care off. Our boy has frequent seizures, they know just what to do to keep him comfortable while also making sure he gets his daily dose of medicine during his stay. Couldn’t recommend Guido and Mark enough!!
We love Guido and Mark! They take such good care of our dogs when we’re out of town. We enjoy the videos and pictures they send us . It’s nice to feel comfortable leaving your babies because you know they will be well taken care of ❤️
Wonderful environment with people who will adore your dog(s). Cannot say enough positive comments, Guido and Mark have an amazing 5 acre fenced in property that allows them the freedom to roam and sleep (wherever they would like). Truly a great place and piece of mind that your dog is in great hands, pictures are an added bonus that are great to receive.
Love this place. HUGE YARD for your dogger to play and air conditioning in their kennels with a doggy door for outside access. My only go to place for my Liberty when I have to board her and the rates are great
I took my baby (dog) here for a long weekend. She's never been to daycare before or any kind of boarding and was very timid at first. But she warmed up very quickly to Kristy, that made me very happy. They reassured me and sent me pictures and videos while I was gone. The transition was seamless. Amazing 10 out of 10 in my opinion. Definitely will bring her back on my next vacation or any out of town stay. Thank you so much ladies for taking such good care of my sweet girl.
We left our two babies with Kristy for 10 days in June, and they loved it !! I can’t speak highly enough about how they were cared for, the facilities, and the staff. We could not be happier with the care they received!!
The best place to bring your pup! Kristy truly gives your pups the best experience. She’s great with communication, sends videos and photos. Do not wait last minute to schedule with her because she gets booked out due to her amazing services.
Kristy, her team, and the facilities here are amazing! Perfect setup for your pooch and they are so flexible. We don’t board our dog often but it’s been difficult in the past to find a place that worked since he doesn’t care for other dogs. They welcomed our pup with open arms and he had a great time with them. Highly recommend!!!
I was nervous leaving my babies there as they were already skiddish. But the staff were great and I think my pups miss them. Thinking about taking them for at least one day a week. Just to run around with their doggie friends. ❤️
This place is the best!!! It had come highly recommended from a co worker. Took our 3 dogs here they had never been boarded before, however as soon as we dropped them off with Kristy I knew they were in great hands. Received videos of them playing and running and knew they were having a blast!! I highly recommend this place for all your boarding needs!! Thank you so much Kristy!!!! The pups will definately be back!!!
My wife and I, along with 2 friends, left our 4 German Shepherds with Kristy for 2 nights. We had plans for months and then Hurricane Ian hit and Kristy took some damage to the facility. She had no power for a week. She still made it work for us and you can't go wrong with her excellent service. Tell your friends ! Highly recommend ! She even sent short videos of our pets daily.
This was the first time our dogs have ever been left at a boarding facility. After Kristie sent the first photos and video, we knew we made the right decision! They were happy and had a great time! We highly recommend this facility due to their care and attention to detail for every dog in there!!!!
Wish I could give Kristy a 10!! This was my first time boarding my dogs so needless to say I was nervous. However, Kristy has made this such a great experience for both me and my dogs! Receiving daily pics and videos of them having fun confirmed that I made the best decision by choosing Canine Countryside Inn.
This young lady Jamie is wonderful. I quickly had to find a new pet service and somehow I ended up on Jamie’s site. I have two “difficult” cats and they loved Jamie. I am happy and am passing her name to all of my fur baby friends.
Jamie has been so amazing with my shih tzu Oliver. She takes such good care of all the animals who stay with her. I wouldn’t want any other person to look after my fur baby! I always miss him when we leave him but Jamie does a great job at sending pictures and making sure he is happy. I will admit he’s always sad to leave all his friends at McGregor Pet Care!
This is wonderful in-her-home pet care. Jamie follows standard animal safety standards, yet provides socializations between the boarders ! My 12year old cat adjusted to Jamie's separate room and over several days was able to use the entire home with small dogs and her own cat. No stress for my cat &we were able to enjoy our vacation
Jamie has been providing excellent care to our golden retriever for the last 3 years. He is three so she has had him for short stays and evening date nights since he was a puppy. Recently we added a dachshund puppy to our family and Jamie has already developed a relationship with him as well. She has had him for both short and long stays when we have been away. Her fully enclosed back yard is perfect for the dogs to play in. Jamie has always provided diligent love and care to our “boys” and they truly love to go to her place. They become excited as soon as we turn into her driveway. Jamie is patient, kind and caring. She is a real dog person and shows great passion in her work. Our boys instantly took to her and I would highly recommend her services as she is exceptionally reliable and reasonably priced. I love that she always sends us photos of the boys having fun with her while we are out too.
Let me start by saying if I could rate Jamie at 100 stars that still would not be enough. I was a very nervous pet owner when considering the whole boarding process. The overwhelming, feeling of trusting a total stranger with my dog, had my anxiety through the roof. A little backstory, we have had our dog for close to three years. We rescued her from a horrible situation when she was just over one. It has taken us a very long time for her to even feel comfortable with us let alone a complete stranger. From the first phone call with Jamie, she made me feel somewhat more at ease than anyone else that I had spoke to. I had spoken to “big box” companies but felt I needed something more personal. The first time we met her, we were welcomed into her home, and I knew right away that she would love and care for our baby just as we did. Jamie took her time to make sure that our dog was completely comfortable. She never tried to rush her. She waited for our dog to trust her, which speaks volumes to her experience and knowledge of pet handling. Unfortunately, our dog had a concerning diagnosis A few days before our trip was planned. After communicating immediately with Jamie, she assured me that administering her medication was no problem at all and keeping her calm would be a top priority. Throughout our trip The communication between my family and Jamie was outstanding. She sent pictures and updates. Confirming the medication had been administered, how she was doing, Updates on potty breaks( this was a worry for us because of the medication) and so many little messages That there was no space in my heart or mind to worry at all! I can honestly say that I will never be worried about leaving my baby with anyone else! Jamie is the real deal and from this point on she is our person. If you are looking for a honest, kind, caring, compassionate person to care for your pets, Jamie is it!
I recently hired Jamie, a dog babysitter and I couldn't be happier with the service provided. She was incredibly professional and showed a genuine love and care for my dog. She followed all of my instructions and went above and beyond to ensure my dog's comfort and happiness. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Jamie to anyone in need of a reliable and caring service for their furry friends.
I can't even explain how grateful I am that I found Jamie! She goes ABOVE AND BEYOND to help out her clients. She watches my puppy every day while I'm at work and has already made huge improvements in my dog's behaviors. Jamie is extremely compassionate and knowledgable and goes out of her way to accommodate my puppy's needs. She always texts me pictures/videos of my puppy to brighten my day at work. I highly recommend her!!
It was the first time with Jamie, and am so glad I trusted her with my dog. She sent pictures while I was gone and kept me posted of Charlie's behavior. Honestly, my dog was a little sad when I picked him up. Highly recommend.
Jamie gave us the greatest experience for our first time boarding the pups! We contacted multiple options for dog care to begin and met with and toured each facility gaining information and getting a feel for the folks who would be taking care of our dogs. Jamie was so warm and welcome upon arrival. The questions we asked were probably over the top but you can’t be too careful. She answered each question with confidence, looking us in the eye. She was not afraid to show us her home and how and where the dogs would be sleeping, playing, etc. 10 out of 10 for cleanliness and organization inside the home. There were no buckets of water, clutter, trash. The outside area was well kept and tidy and no build up of items or trash that our dogs(whom are nosy) could into and possibly hurt or poisoned. Fence was sturdy and clean as well and the amount of backyard was a big plus! She also wanted to meet our pups before hand so she could make sure it was a good fit. They immediately took to her. Our dutchie went and sat right in her lap with no worries. That made us feel super comfortable. The whole dropping off process went perfectly. We left on our adventure feeling slightly worried, but confident knowing we left them in good hands. She updated every few hours(sometimes sooner) with pictures and the activities they were doing, they literally had a blast!! One detail I will emphasize on is that she was ready and willing to keep training on the schedule. She asked for feeding guidelines and things they are training with at this time. We are big on making sure our dogs have and keep their manners a part of their everyday life. She did a wonderful job keeping up with that as well, we had no issues with regression and going backwards in any of their manner training. All I can say is I will always choose Jamie & Mcgregor pet care as our second home for our doggos from here on out!! She has become part of our forever pack!
Jamie and her mother have kept our dog many times. We have a Klee Kai, and she is four years old. We had tried different commercial services, and Torrie would get so upset when we would take her to them. It was heartbreaking. Now, when Torrie is in the car and realizes she is going to see Jamie, she is so incredibly excited and happy. The last time we pulled into Jamie’s driveway, Torrie jumped onto my lap and started banging on the door with her paws for me to hurry and open the door, and then she leaped out of my lap and ran for the front door. There are almost always other animals there, and Torrie loves to play. Jamie manages multiple animals with such skill and care! We’ve never had a problem and always feel so great about where our fur baby is when she’s not with us. Five stars aren’t enough: I’d give her ten stars if it was allowed. And one other thing: Jamie has all 5 star reviews but one. She has no idea who that guy that gave her a 1 star review is, and if you look at all his other reviews in total, he has reviewed 11 things and gave 8 of them 1 star. That’s all you need to know.
Happy Paws Ranch treated our puppy like he was their own. He has separation anxiety from us and they made sure he was comfortable. Gayle provided updates on how he was doing everyday, sending pictures and videos. We loved that they do not keep the dogs in cages. The dogs have a very personal experience where they get to run around outside all day and sleep in the comfort of a home. Happy Paws will definitely be our puppy’s home away from home when we come to Fort Meyers. Thank you for taking such great care of him!
Best place to leave your well behaved, non-aggressive pet while you are on vacation. I MUST feel my dogs are in a safe & fun environment while I am not with them to be comfortable leaving them any place while I am gone. Happy Paws Ranch is the place that gives me that feeling! The dogs get to choose cage free indoor/outdoor fun time with the other clients who are in residence at the time. They are treated as family during their stay. You can tell by your dogs reaction when you drop them off & pick them up that Happy Paws Ranch is not a stressful place for them...on the contrary, it's a place where they meet other dogs and play all day and sleep all night. A tired dog is a happy dog is a good dog!
Well wouldn’t know how the new owners are. The previous owners were awesome. But new owners will not allow any dog that is not neutered. Sort of got rude with me made me feel like I am a bad pet owner cause I didn’t want to neuter my akc schnauzer. What do they always say my body my choice. Same with my dog. Would not recommend very rude owners. I guess they can’t figure out if all animals are neutered at that time then a non neutered animal would not be a problem. Stay away from.
We can't say enough great things about Happy Paws Ranch!!! We have used them quite often over the last 2 years for our 3 (sometimes 4 with a foster :-D) pugs and they are just awesome!! 2 of our guys are older rescues with multiple health problems/on multiple medications and we feel very comfortable leaving them with Happy Paws Ranch. The thing that I love the most about Happy Paws, compared to other boarding places that we have used in the past, is that they really, really get to know your dog...and our dogs never appear to be "stressed" when we pick them up. In fact, they get excited the times that we pull up now! They know all of the little quirks and characteristics of our little guys...and that means the world to us...and makes us feel comfortable about going out of town. Highly recommended!
We found Gayle and Happy Paws via our cousins on Facebook. Being new to the area we had tried two other places and were not happy with the way our dog acted on a second visit. A trip to Happy Paws is like an enticing play date for Carmela. She knows where she is going and can not wait to get in.
Happy Paws is amazing! My fur baby loves it! Super nice people, lots of fenced outdoor space, no cages, other furry friends to play with- it's a vacation for your dog! :) 100% recommend!!
We love happy paws ranch and ESPECIALLY our dog Brooks does. They are so friendly, have a great system and yard for the dogs. It’s really a vacation for our pup.
AMAZING! We love having a place for our beloved canine family. They are kept safe and are much loved by the staff. When we have to be away from our dogs for a brief period of time, we are comforted by knowing that they are happy and so well protected.
I have been in contact with Happy Paws for months arranging for my pup to start coming to doggie day care and boarding. I sent vet records with shots which also showed her breed as a hound/lab mix confirmed by the vet. Nothing was ever said in the many emails that any breed restrictions applied. Even if they did mine is a hound/lab mix. I got there today and was told sorry she “looks” like a restricted breed. I was floored. She was schedule to be in day care 2x per week and boarding over Christmas and now told “sorry we can’t take her”. Very poor communication and now I am left in a lurch. Thank goodness for Brower Kennel who took her same day for day care. I am on a waiting list for Christmas which didn’t have to happen if this place told me 3 months ago about their restrictions. If it was going to be based on looks they should ask for a picture.
This is a home away from home for any dog. The owners of this ranch are very friendly and loving. Lots of room to run and play for the dogs. We have left our Maltese with them for two overnights and she loves it there. Since we moved our previous dog sitter is too far away and when an emergency arose we came across the Happy Paws Ranch. We could not be happier with the choice we made. Evelyn Touhsaent-Lawrence
I was a little skeptical at first, because my 3 dogs are like my children! But after reading the reviews for Miriam and seeing how happy everyone was with her dog sitting I decided to give her a try! It was amazing! My dogs instantly loved her, she had this sweet caring aura and I felt instantly safe leaving my babies for 2 weeks! I highly recommend her and I’ll definitely use her over and over again without any hesitation! Thank you Miriam for being a part of my doggy family 💖 5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🐶 🦴
So glad I met Miriam she was so good with my 4 little ones.I have 2 Frenchies and I have 2 mini pinchers they all came back happy healthy and with their tails wagging. I’m so glad she accepted cash app so I did not have to run to the bank. Will recommend her to all my friends and family. Thank you again Miriam .
My big boy loves Miriam, she is AWESOME!! She always makes sure he’s happy and comfortable. 100% Recommended🥰👍🏻 …
I'm so glad to find a sitter that I could feel comfortable leaving my beagle with. She kept me informed about my dog throughout the entire stay with FaceTime and videos. I would definitely use her professional services the next time I visit Florida!
I was notified when i arrived to drop off my pomeranian that she only takes cash up front. Luckily i had it with me. She would not allow us into her home, or view the location that she was going to keep my dog in. I thought this was odd, but figured with 88 5 star reviewsand nothing less than 5 stars, maybe I'm just being paranoid. Her ability to communicate is somewhat disjointed. She sometimes would not answer yhe questions asked, but just comment about my boy having girl friends. I observed some of the same behavior when dropping him off, and picking him up. He was professionally groom a few days before he was dropped off. When we picked him up, his back half was damp and he smelled of a kennel. His tail hair was matted, and all oh his hair was "oily", which I've never seen on my dog. Additionally while there, she did send many photos of him, but his ears were always back in submission. This is something else I've never seen in him. After being cleaned up though, he does seem healthy, and unharmed. And he is almost back to his normal self after 8 hours or so.
My Xena had an amazing time, would definitely recommend. Very accommodating and made sure my girl was comfortable
Miram is an amazing baby sitter, she takes care of our animals like they are her own. She's got the whole set up, and an amazing heart. Her prices are very reasonable. Can't find more of an amazing women than her. I'm so happy that I found wagging tails 💯💯 this will be forever be my animals sitter …
Definitely recommend Miriam. She sent me pictures of my babies (dogs) throughout their stay. Miriam is very sweet and affordable. Don’t hesitate and book her. Thank you Miriam 🐾🐾see you real soon. …
Came to Cape Coral to see family, and took my boys to day care. They both had a wonderful time. She worked with my schedule, at a really reasonable price. Thank you so much for the great care you took with my baby's.
Miriam, the owner of Happy Wagging Tails, is an animal lover and a very gracious person. She cared for our Springer Spaniel and treated her like family. She sent us pictures every day. Definitely recommend her
I boarded both of my labs for a long weekend. Dropped them off on Wednesday called on Thursday everything was fine they were eating and no issues. Came back to pick them up on Monday and was told my older lab who is almost 13 would not eat so they switched her food and she had diarrhea. She ended up being so sick it cost me almost $700 in veterinary bills. My vet could not believe they switched her food. They never reached out to me before making the change. No call, no text, no email, no communication whatsoever. My other lab came home with an eye infection which was even more cost in vet bills. Absolutely horrible experience, I would never trust Tiki Tails again & this was not the first time we have used them. I don’t know if they have new management or what but this was not handled appropriately at all. In response to Tiki Tails Response to me: you offered two days of boarding to resolve this. Why would we want to bring our dogs back to you so we can incur additional vet bills? No way! Also, you did not try to resolve this in additional emails. In fact, my last email was never acknowledged or responded too and that has been well over a week ago.
Our sweet Charlie loves going to Tiki Tails! They take such great care of him!
Had an awful interaction with the angry mess of an owner. She literally threw a fit in the waiting room. As an animal lover, I don't think any pet should be left alone with someone like that. Went to make a review to warn other pet owners, and was confused to see they have 4 stars as I've heard (and now seen) awful things about this place. Then, upon further inspection I see that every google review under 5 stars receives a personal attack. Seriously, go on google and look for yourself! No wonder people are scared to leave bad reviews! One review even begs the owner not to attack her online just for telling her story about her dog being mistreated. And yup, you guessed it, there was the owner throwing a tantrum down below. Owner threw her fit at me for being 5 minutes late to an appointment. (9:07 by the time she showed up.) I didn't speak but once to quietly apologize and try to leave, but she continued her angry rant. Gosh she was such a mess. I gave her time to call and apologize, as I was sure this wasn't normal behavior, but nope. If I receive an online attack trying to turn it on me, I will gladly voice what was said to me. I only spoke once to apologize for being late. How I was treated was NOT okay. Protect your pets!
Highly recommend Tiki Tails daycare and boarding. They have created a fun and safe place for dogs to play and socialize. Each of their associates is professional and caring. Can't say enough positive things about them!
We love Tiki Tales! Best in the business service! We know our pooch is loved and cared for as much or more than when he’s home.
Maggie Mae loves going to Tiki Tails to play! The staff is very interactive with the dogs and we always pick up a happy dog who I sometimes think she would rather stay and play longer! The staff is great! Groomers are very good!
After moving to SW Florida my Aussie was missing all his friends. We had lived in a townhome and he had LOTS of friends and now even though we had a great backyard, we felt he needed more. I had found out about Tiki from a friend. We finally got everything together and did Scooters interview. I am so glad we did. They suggested we do a few days in a row to get him used to it. The second day when we pulled onto the road and into the driveway he was so excited and couldn’t wait to get inside. He may not be ready to play with all the other dogs, but at least he isn’t resisting going and all staff has been amazing.
We love Tiki Tails!! We are new to the area and were looking for the right place for our dog as he is a bit shy and learning how to socialize and play. He absolutely LOVES Tiki Tails. As soon as we park he is so happy to be here which confirms that the staff is amazing, attentive, and caring. I love being able to watch him on IG stories! He loves going to play for the day and we've boarded him a few times as well. Each time he's been boarded the staff has been extremely communicative on how he's doing which gives us ease of mind! I can't say enough good things and we're excited for the new facility. Thank you Tiki Tails for always taking great care of Sunny!
I brought my dog for daycare three days in a row while in the area. She absolutely loved it! She was excited to go back - a clear sign to me the staff are not only loving and attentive but keep the group safe and controlled as well. As someone who has worked in the dog boarding/daycare industry for years, I am PARTICULAR and everything about Tiki Tails surpassed my expectations. The staff were welcoming and incredibly friendly (with people and pets!) and I was obsessed with watching my dog on their Instagram stories while she was there. Thank y'all very much for keeping my baby safe and happy, I would bring her back in a heartbeat - highly, highly recommend!
Tiki Tails was recommended to me by another client. I have to say I am more than pleased with the daycare and my golden, River, LOVES it! Without a doubt my favorite part is that they constantly post stories on their Instagram, so I get to see my boy playing and having a great time all day while I’m at work. The staff is super friendly and the rates are reasonable. I highly recommend Tiki Tails!
My only regret is not finding Michelle sooner. We were so nervous to leave our fur babies with someone new for the first time, but our fears subsided as soon as we received text messages and photos of them to confirm they were ok and being well taken care of. If you are on the fence about using My Best Friend Petsitting ,we 100% Recommend and cannot wait to travel again, knowing we left them in the best hands possible. Thank you again. 😃 Kinber, Charlie, Wrinkles & Ms. Kitty
I have used My Best Friend Petsitting over two years. I have the utmost confidence in Michelle to take care of my older cat, give him the medicine he needs twice a day, and to recognize and know what to do it an emergency occurred. Her love of animals is apparent. It you’re looking for a good reliable petsitter, look no further. You won’t be disappointed.
Michelle is GOD SENT. We just moved to the area and we were so hesitant on leaving our “kids” behind when we left town but once we met Michelle, we knew our pups would be in the best care possible.
This service is the best! We are fortunate and grateful to be a client of My Best Friend. Michelle is in fantastic; dependable, responsive, responsible and a great communicator of what’s going on with your pet. We’re huge fans!!
Best sitter ever we can leave for vacation and have a great time, our pet baby’s are loving hands. We have them stay with Ellen and Max at night and leave in the lmorning. We love them and Ellen and Max really love them.
Michelle always takes the best care of my cats. She spends the extra time they need to feel comfortable.
Michelle is awesome and takes great care of my Pomeranian while I am away from home. Thanks Michelle!
Michelle does a great job looking after the kitties, is flexible, and responsive. Thanks, Michelle!
My 4 legged baby, Poquito, love, love loves his Auntie Michelle.
Best sitter I’ve ever had
My fur baby has been coming here for a few months now. We keep coming back for the friendly staff and peace of mind knowing our fur baby is happy and healthy! We love the daily photos and save them. It’s so nice to know she is having fun and making friends. The staff even knows our girl by name!
I have had my Westies groomed at many places around Ft Myers over the years but my search for the best has ended with Brandon at Buster's Happy Tails! My babies have never looked so good. I admit they were a mess, overgrown and matted with the hurricane and everything. Even with them being shaved short there were no clipper marks or burns like I've experienced with many other groomers. They were silky smooth and their faces were done perfectly. They even got a real Westie ear cut. Even our friends love how cute they look. Their three dogs looked great too! You will not be disappointed with the care and professionalism you will get at Buster's. Brandon is a master groomer for all breeds. I already made our next appointment!
They have great grooming and daycare services. My dogs practically lunge out of the car when we pull in. They are pricey but to be honest, they’re on the cheaper side for the area. We will continue to go to the them for daycare and grooming!
I absolutely love this place. I have a very large puppy....80+lbs at 10 months. He is always happy to go and play with his friends. They treat him well. We boarded our puppy on a recent vacation and it went excellent. Great place for puppy daycare and boarding.
This place is absolutely HORRIBLE!! Too many accidents!!..the owner takes no responsibility for your pet if something happens.. she's shady as hell.. if you love ur fur babies at all, you'd go elsewhere!! Please..go elsewhere! She's a nightmare and so is her business!! Worse place ever for dogs! Smh... just horrible what goes on behind closed doors.. very sad.
Buster's is great for training, grooming, boarding, & daycare. The staff truly loves animals and you can trust your furbaby is in good hands. Their facility is top notch! There are several sections for outdoor play and indoor rest. Outdoor yards have things to climb, access to shade, fan misters, and my husky's personal favorite, multiple shallow pools to cool down in. They also take pics of the pups daily and post them to their Facebook page, so if you're out of town you can see what fun they're up to. Great ownership and staff.
I bring Django at least once a week for daycare and he gets to excited to go! He has also boarded overnight here as well. I love the fact that he can get a bath after playing with all his buddies to come home refreshed! You can tell Django loves everyone at Busters!
We took our dog Enzo to Busters Happy Tails for his very first doggy daycare experience today. All staff were so friendly and accommodating and you can't beat the price! Busters definitely made our first doggy daycare experience easy for Enzo and us! Highly recommend 😊
So grateful for this place! I had to stay in Fort Myers for work during a few weeks, and they were able to accommodate my Boston Terrier quickly. He attended daycare for about 3 weeks while we were there and loved it! They go through screening first to know the dog better and make sure they are not bringing bad behaviors into the group. He made lots of friends and if we're ever back in the area, we will definitely return. Staff is super responsive and organized, the facilities are clean, and the people looking after the dogs are responsible and definitely pay attention and know their dogs.
We absolutely love Busters and are so thankful to have found them. Our English Yellow Lab enjoys here home away from home anytime she is with Busters. We are worry free when we have to travel because the staff treat her like their own. Thank you Busters for providing such a safe, fun place for Keke.
This is the first time I had to bring my dog for an overnight stay at the Barker Lounge. My dog has never stayed in any facility. This place was highly recommended. They made me feel at ease when I left her. I feel like she had a good time and she ate her food which is always a good sign. She stayed one night. I would return in the future if I needed a place to bring her.
During Pierre's first couple of stays, he had stress leading to tummy/ GI issues. After I shared this w/ the team, they made sure Pierre had a quieter kennel for his visits and gave him extra human touch and attention which is very calming to Pierre. I have gone through a tough November with losing my dear mother. Knowing that Pierre was well cared for meant so much. The owner, managers, and every staff member really care for the pups here. Highly recommend!
Our two Italian greyhounds love to spend time at Barker Lounge. Always friendly check in and attentive to our needs. I love the reports we get after boarding overnight, which they have done several times. Highly recommend for your pets!
My dog is so happy at the Barker Lounge. He is excited to get in there every morning and never looks back to say bye. He comes home exhausted and happy. *photo credit Barker Lounge pic 1-5 and 7
Barker Lounge provides exceptional service for us and our pet. Everyone is accommodating and makes us feel appreciated. We never worry for over-night stays - we know our boy is in good hands.
A terrific place to board our Bernese Mountain dog, Lexi. Staff are dedicated to providing the best care for our girl. She is always looking great and happy when we pick her up. Thank you Barker Lounge.
We have a dog who is very anxious, especially with others in the lobby. The staff at The Barker Lounge not only accommodates him, but does it with kindness and caring. I never feel we are putting them out. We take him there weekly for daycare and frequently for boarding. Even with extended stays, he comes home happy (and tired!) They send pictures of him playing and having a great time.
We recently boarded our dog Cash here for a week. We got updates on how he was doing, eating, playing and pictures which were much appreciated and made me feel so much better about being away from him! Cash can be a handful sometimes w his high energy and loud bark, but the staff there were good with him, and we appreciate them taking good care of him so much.
Our dog had a very good experience at The Barker Lounge. It was clean and well kept. We got photos and a report on how he was doing while staying there. He will stay here in the future when we need a place for him to board.
The Barker Lounge is a pleasant experience for my dogs (having good times), my wife (worry level drops another notch), and myself. (happy wife happy life!) :)
Jenny is a wonderful pet sitter. She is very detailed, responsible, and reliable. She watched our pets for just over a week and stayed at our home. When we came home we found that she was a great house guest. Our three dogs barely missed us! Jenny sent many pictures and text updates to let us know that she was taking good care of our dogs. We highly recommend her services and plan to use her again in the future.
Jenny and Steve are the best! My dogs are so happy to see them every time. I was so lucky to have found Jenny the Petsitter a few years ago. Both Jenny and Steve have been so great with each of our pups. Over the last few years, we've lost 2 dogs and adopted new rescues and they've been so great with the whole process each time. They both are so good at letting me know if they see anything out of norm for the dogs medically or behavior wise. They help save my dogs butts by cleaning up the evidence of their misdeeds before we get home 😄, they are always so helpful with random stuff like putting away my delivered groceries so nothing would spoil 🙏🏽. I don't know what I would do without them! Thank you Jenny and Steve! 💕
Jenny did a tremendous job caring for my cat while I was on vacation. She is very responsible, thorough and takes care of every detail. I very much appreciated the daily updates with pictures, I always feel terrible leaving kitty behind when I travel, but I knew he was being well cared for with Jenny. I will definitely be contacting her again the next time I travel and highly recommend Jenny to anyone who needs a reliable pet sitter.
Jenny is absolutely fabulous. She makes you feel comfortable leaving your pets with her. She made sure to send me pictures so I knew she was with them. I will be using her again. ***UPDATE*** 7/12/20 Still fabulous. I have a girl at my apartment complex that would watch my girls for free, but I am still with Jenny the Pet Sitter, she is professional, my girls love her and I will use her every time. She makes sure to send pictures, if she is running behind she lets you know. My girls are my babies so I only give them the best.
Jenny is very reliable and does an outstanding job when she is taking care of my dog. My dog is so happy to see her when she walks through the front door because she knows that she's going for a walk, treats and lots of attention from Jenny. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
A year ago we needed a dog-sitter and found Jenny the Pet Sitter on Facebook and decided to give her a try......Jenny is great with our little dog and he loves her, our cat (who likes no one) has become very fond of Jenny too. Jenny has helped us out many times on short notice and in emergencies and never let us down. I was at first a bit nervous about leaving our "babies" with a pet sitter, but not any more. I cannot recommend Jenny highly enough, if you need a caring ,animal loving pet sitter, give Jenny a call.
If you want the best care for your pet while you are away from home, you must hire Jenny’s Petsitting for all your petsitting needs. Jenny is very organized, knows all the tricks of the trade, and genuinely cares for all the pets she cares for. I have had Jenny and Steve take care of my Cat at least once a month the past year and a half and couldn’t be happier. They are prompt, send lots of photos and updates on each visit, and my home is in perfect condition when I return. We are so grateful to have them taking care of our precious cat.
Jenny is a caring kind individual. She cares for my moms dog along with helping my mom a lot. She puts the needs of her clients before her own. You can trust her with your fur babies and loved ones. We feel very fortunate to have her!
I hired Jenny as my Pet Sitter for 2+ years. I moved to the East Coast of FL and wish I could use her here, too! She always fit me and my 3 pets in, her rates are very reasonable for the quality she provides, she always followed instructions on feeding and routines down to a T, I received pictures of my fur babies each time she is there- this helps with being able to see them while I’m away, as well as knowing what time she is feeding them and the amount of time she is spending with them- they always look happy when Jenny’s there! I highly recommend Jenny! Always prompt to confirm the days/times needed and follow up is amazing! She truly felt like part of the extended fam. Thank you, Jenny, for caring so much other's babies!
Jenny has been a God Send to our family. We had not been able to take a vacation for the last 6 Years due to a terrible experience we had with a previous sitter that ended up in one of our dogs being hospitalized for two days when we returned. Jenny takes care of our two babies as if they were her own. One of them is very sensitive and has a very sensitive stomach. The smallest things will upset his gastrointestinal balance, so the last thing we wanted to do was burden someone with cleaning up a stinky mess. Jenny has helped up find foods that won’t upset his stomach and suggested other things to improve his overall health and well being. She worked with us through the process of trying different things until we found what worked. My dog is much happier and it has relieved a tremendous amount of stress and worry everyday that I would be coming home to an accident. Last year for the first time in years, me and my husband were able to take a two week vacation to Europe and she stayed with our boys. She gave us updates several times a day via text and had no problems whatsoever with their care. I don’t even think they missed us. She followed our wishes to the T and kept them on their schedules and routines. We trust her more than our own family members with their care and feel very blessed to have found her. Several of our neighbors have commented about seeing Jenny walking and playing with them. “You can tell how much she loves them” they tell us, “You sure are lucky to have found her”. I smile with pride, and say “yes I know, she has become part of our family”.
