Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
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!
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.
Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
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 $ per visit, $12/week 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!
With the facilities in a country setting, and the way the dog boarding areas were laid out, there was no thought of using any of the other places we looked at in the area. I especially appreciated that the small dog building is separate from the large dog area. Chris, the owner, was personable and knowledgeable and gave us a great tour. This is a very nice family owned and operated business.
I do not board my dogs. I try to avoid it at all costs. But I will gladly board my german shorthaired pointer at Joyful Noise. They don't treat their dogs like typical boarding facilities. From what I've seen, the dogs get to run around quite frequently and the staff do what the dog wants to do. I never have doubt that my dog will be taken care of here. They have always been so accommodating to what my dog needs. Very pleased with this facility. I've attached some pictures of my dog Rosie running around and playing with other dogs. Every picture sent to me makes me feel reassured I've chosen the right place.
Joyful Noise is the only place we trust our pup with!! Their flexibility and communication when booking is top tier and the way they love your dogs as their own is wildly apparent. The changeover of owners approx a year ago has gone without a hitch and the improvements they are making are nice!!
I have been boarding with Joyful noise for years. My dogs always have a great time and the owner is one of the most pleasant individuals I have met. I live 40 miles away and still choose to board with them. I can't recommend them enough.
Lovely experience for our neurotic dog, Lilly. She was well cared for. Friendly staff and great facilities. Very reasonably priced, too. Will use them for all our future boarding needs!
I was very nervous to board my 2 dogs. One has a lot of anxiety and has never settled well when boarding. The other had never been boarded - he's a COVID puppy who rarely is even left home without people. I heard great things about Joyful Noise... And then was nervous again when I heard there were new owners after I scheduled. All of my own anxiety was for nothing. My dogs were so happy when we picked them up. The new owners are wonderful (and were so generous with me and my own nerves and my exhaustion when messing up pick-up a bit). I feel so much better knowing that the next time we are going out of town, I can feel calm about this part of the experience. My fur babies will be safe and happy here. Thank you, Joyful Noise!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Joyful Noise Dog Boarding! My fur baby “Mr.Bentley” gets to play and hang out with all his friends while I’m away. They love him almost as much as I do! They go out of their way to accommodate my busy schedule. Mr.Bentley is VERY well taken care of! I Never worry about his stays! When ever I ask Bentley if he’s ready to go visit his friends at camp…he runs to the front door! He loves going…what a concept in this day! Other boarders I’ve used in the past don’t even compare! I will never take him anywhere else!
Our two dogs room together at Joyful Noise and always come home happy. The staff are friendly and sweet to my dogs, even when they’re rambunctious and excited. The cost is affordable and it’s nice to not have to worry about them while we are away. I only wish there was a bathing option but that’s because my dogs love to get dirty during playtime. :-)
Have used them twice for vacation and have been very pleased with the service. Our dog loves the cows in the next yard and seems to love the people. Very nice staff. A little hard to get an appointment but they have improved with this and makes me assured thier priority is the dogs.
Thanks Kathleen for greeting us with warmth and enthusiasm today! Our dog Bella is happy and excited to visit your beautiful country dog boarding school and we think she will enjoy staying with you-all for a time soon. We had fun meeting a few of the other dogs and staff at their play time outside. We will make sure Bella gets her bordatella vaccine at Town and Country vets as soon as possible now before her stay. Thanks again for showing us around and welcoming Bella at your place. We can tell that all of the dogs have a real loving home there. We appreciate your hospitality and love for animals and especially the dogs very much. We always wish we could take our dog Bella everywhere with us, but you make the fact that we really cannot a little easier to take. Thanks it's a good start with our visit to Joyful Noise Boarding today!
Our dogs don't stay anywhere else! We know they are well loved and cared for here :) Debbie sends us updates and pictures too, so that is really nice.
Had to make an emergency trip and our other sitters were unavailable. Found Debbie's service through Google and had no idea she was available just down the street. She was able to accommodate our last minute need for a sitter and am very glad we found her. She had her for a little over a week and took great care of our Lhasa Apso who also required daily eye drops. She would send us pictures and updates which relieved our stress about leaving her. Could not have asked for better results. Will be sure to continue using her in the future. Much appreciated Debbie!!! Highly recommended!!!
Debbie took such great care of our dog while we were away. She had excellent communication with us and we felt assured that our dog would be in great hands. It was very comforting to know he was getting individual attention from someone who clearly cared about the animals. So happy we met her!
I needed someone to watch my dog for a couple days and I found this lady through a directory. We met at her house and I found her to be so nice. A really suitable, professional and comfortable environment. It turned out in the end that my mom was able to watch my dog but I will for sure use her in the future if I ever need someone to watch my dog.
super nice
Thank you for your rating.
Thank you for your rating!
Erin is extremely knowledgeable and dependable!!! She treats every pet like they’re her own, she loves on my dogs as if they’re her dogs!! I highly recommend SPS to anyone who wants that close-to-home feel with your pets.
I’m very pleased to have found Sunshine Pet Services! Erin’s professionalism and communication immediately put me at ease. Erin is very thorough and it’s evident that she has my pet’s best interest in mind. She’s always seeking to ensure he is happy and safe. I really appreciate Erin’s text message updates and pictures each visit as they help remove the stress and worry that comes from leaving pets behind. After returning, I can tell from my cat’s demeanor that he has been well taken care of and given a good amount of attention. Without a doubt, I will continue using Erin’s services for future trips, thanks Erin!!
Erin did an absolutely incredible job taking care of our bunny and cat, as well as our yard! We appreciate her attention to detail, enthusiasm to care for our fur babies, and daily communication updates while we were away. Erin is responsible, dependable, and went above and beyond caring for both our pets and home. We had such a relaxing vacation knowing our girls were in such good hands. We look forward to seeing you again soon, Erin! Thank you!
I've worked with Sunshine twice and have been incredibly pleased both times. Erin is kind and thorough and sends the best detailed updates about her drop ins with my pets (cats, chickens, and fish) and plants. She's flexible and accommodating and it's clear how much she cares about and loves what she does. I'm so glad to have found Erin and her business!
We had Erin take care of our cat (drop-in visits) while we were on vacation. We were immediately impressed with Erin's professionalism and diligence in getting everything set up, learning about our cat, and ensuring a successful pet sitting experience via a questionnaire. Erin took great care of our cat and provided very thorough text updates and pictures while we were on vacation. We would recommend this service to anyone, and the best part is it all took part in our pet's home! Erin, thank you for your service, we will absolutely be back and book with you again!
Erin is AMAZING! Where do I begin?! Erin has been dog sitting my dog Maggie for a couple months now. Erin is very professional, punctual, and most importantly she is great with communication. Erin has very reasonable pricing for her hard work ethic. She is most concerned for the pet's well being. I'm so happy to trust Erin with my fur baby and with my apartment. My husband and I both work full time jobs so Erin eases our anxieties of having to leave our dog alone for too many hours. Erin is very flexible and has always been able to meet our needs and my pet's needs. I would definitely recommend Erin to any pet owner. Thank you Erin for all you do! I'm happy to continue having you care for my fur baby! ❤
I haven't used Sunshine Pet Services... yet... I had planned to and will but wanted to give Erin 5 stars so far because of her impeccable customer service so far: my x-mas plans fell through so I decided- why not? let's head to Vegas! Completely last minute but had to make sure my guys were all set so contacted Erin to see if she was available to come over and feed them while I was away. Unfortunately I've had a medical issue that I was ignoring prove to not want to be ignored and I need to stay close to home but she was Very responsive and understood that my plans were coming together fast with planning a last minute trip and did everything she could to accommodate me. We didn't actually meet but that she responded to Every email immediately as I was trying to set things up was very helpful and that is really a good sign for me that she is the one that When I do get to go on vacation, she will be the one I will trust to take care of my dear ones. Also- I don't know who designed her website but it is fabulous! Very clear- very comprehensive. Thanks Erin!
Erin is the best pet sitter we could ever ask for. She is dependable and takes great care of our kitties. Receiving a thorough and individualized text each day with photos of our babes provided us with a peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t recommend Erin more!
I am beyond pleased that I found Erin and Sunshine Pet Services! Erin's calm and friendly demeanor eased my anxieties of leaving my cherished pet with someone new. I have never seen Jade "play" with another dog before. However, after just a few minutes at Erin's place, Jade was playing tug of war with her dog Audrey. Erin sent me frequent updates and pictures depicting how Jade's stay was going, which were greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for quality, reliable and friendly pet services. Thank you Erin for taking such good care of Jade this past weekend! Her nail trim looks beautiful too!
Erin is awesome! She is hard working, professional and skilled at what she does. I feel very fortunate to have found her and recommend her to anyone looking for services for their pets.
Beautiful place and easy to find off the highway. Great place for senior dogs. My 12 yr old beagle basset mix had a good time. The only thing I would change is instead of me bugging them to ask how my dog was doing. Maybe write a simple thing in his portal or text me saying he had a good day and enjoyed smelling while out walking and even if he made a friend ( since he couldn't be in doggy daycare my only request was him to socialize with other dogs since he lost his best buddy our other dog a few months prior, so I was also having a hard time him being alone.) Pictures are great but I wanted to know a little more. I felt like I was sending my old man to camp for the first time and wanted to make sure he had a good day since he couldn't tell himself.
Seems like a nice place and our dog enjoyed his stay. The big selling point for us was we were told we would get daily updates with pictures. We had to ask for pictures and updates which wasn't a big deal. Our dog loved it there. We will definitely bring our little pup back here anytime we leave town. Everyone was really nice. The pictures and videos we got after asking were great. Our pup looked like he had a blast and he got a bath before picking him up so he smelled nice. They have tons of acres to walk dogs and a big pond for swimming.
We brought our pup to these wonderful folks and they have been nothing but amazing. Mylo wasn't a fan the first time due to be anxious and it being new. They allowed for me to bring my dog in for a few hours each day after and made him feel very comfortable! He now seems to enjoy being there and the staff is amazing! I would send someone here in a heartbeat! Thank you guys for taking care of my pup Mylo
My Loki was a happy, tired pup after I picked him up. I boarded him for a week and was sent picture updates. I also appreciate that they do evaluations for each dog before they are able to do community playtime with the others. I plan on boarding him here again when we go out of town in the future.
The staff here is exceptional 😊 There's so much to keep my pup active while she's here. Also THE best trainer around👍 Highly recommend this place for training, boarding, and daycare. They also offer some grooming & nail trim.
Our Border Collie, Rip, spent 8 nights at Ankeny Hill while we were on vacation. We couldn’t imagine taking him anywhere else after his first stay here. The drop off was smooth and easy. They coordinated some shots he had coming up, and at our request even trimmed his nails and bathed him the morning we picked him up. He has a GPS collar which the battery usually lasts a week or two, but he was so active there that it died in just a few days! Other kennels we’ve been to he gets nowhere near that amount of playtime/activity. Rip came home CLEAN, HEALTHY, and tired; if we could give Ankeny Hill 10/5 stars, we would in a heartbeat and we will definitely be back!
This is hands down the best dog boarding, daycare and dog obedience training in Salem and the surrounding areas. My pup LOVES this place and more importantly he loves everyone who works there. The staff is extremely knowledgable and experienced with dogs and they create a loving, safe and fun place for my pup to hang out during the days or boarding. It feels like they are his family too!
Thank you so much!! We will definitely be back. River looks amazing. She is beautiful and you guys were wonderful with her. River now has her future home with you guys there on her spa days. Thank you for always keeping me posted threw out the day. If I could give more stars I would!!!!
Can i give ZERO stars?!Our dog came home Wednesday with wounds on his legs. No one said anything and had to be asked. The wounds were almost positively bites and today, our 5 year old beautiful malamute was euthanized due to the infection.
They treated our boy so well! For the first time he was happy, clean, and himself, after being at a boarding facility! The staff is ridiculously friendly and helpful and they obviously care about the animals. Our dog can't wait to go back! Edit: I wanted to add our dog is notoriously difficult when it's time to have his nails trimmed and not only did they do so, but they were handsomely done, without any apparent trauma as he still let us grab and play with his feet that afternoon! Well done!
Jen, Carly and Dylan have all been wonderful! It's easy to request pet care for our kitties when we leave for a few days, and we know that we'll get photo updates while we're away ❤️
Excellent care of our cats! I really appreciate the timely email updates and the photos. Highly recommend Jen and her team to take care of your fur babies.
I love Corvallis Pet Care! It's super easy to schedule services online. They are very attentive to my cats and send daily write-ups and photos of my pets. They offer excellent service.
Corvallis Pet Care is wonderful! The owner is extremely conscientious about responding to any questions and accommodating specific requests. My pets can run a bit anxious (as can their owner), but both my elderly dog and cat seemed very comfortable with the visitors. The detailed emails and pics you get after every visit really help to put your mind at ease.
They took great care of our kitty while we were away. Very happy to get daily updates from the caregiver. Strongly recommend and we will be happy to use them again.
I have used CPC on two different occasions for walking my dogs. Jen was prompt to get back to me in response to questions and was well organized. The dog walker I met seemed personable and comfortable with our dogs, who came back happy from their walks. It would be nice to have the same staff on all walks, but guess that is not possible. I would use CPC again.
We are new to Corvallis and new friends recommended Jen/Corvallis Pet Care for our pup Myles. Jen is great. She is knowledgeable about dog behavior and training skills. Jen also participates in continuing education. We have confidence that Myles will be cared for in a safe environment and his day full of new adventures.
We love Corvallis Pet Care. My dog loves boarding with Jen. He’s stayed with her since he was a puppy. He gets walks every day and I know and trust he is safe and well cared for. He always comes home healthy and happy. Jen has also cared for my elderly cat in my house. Jen is smart, safe, and skilled with any level of pet service you need. I am grateful to have found her.
Wonderful service, and great communication before, during and after pet care. Pricy, but definitely worth it when less expensive options aren't available. Thanks to Jen and Elizabeth for working with me!
Jen and her team have provided excellent care for my two cats! They are reliable and timely with their visits and always provide detailed updates on your pets during their visit (including cute photos!). Scheduling is incredibly easy, and I appreciate that Jen and her team are very communicative. I always come home to cats that are well cared for and loved while I am out of town. I feel lucky to have been connected with Corvallis Pet Care and have recommended them to friends in Corvallis!
I have mixed feelings about this place. When booking the boarding I was under the impression the dogs would have some opportunity to play with other dogs, and interact, this was not the case. This was simple dog boarding with bathroom walks. This was NOT what I wanted, but really had no choice as we were there, and had a commitment to be at. Also, my dogs were there 4 nights, and I packed treats, bully sticks, and more treats to help them with boredom, most of that stuff came back unused. All the dogs there appear to be left in kennel cages unless there go out for a bathroom break. Several of the dogs there barked the whole time we were dropping off and picking up, a noisy intimidating place for some dogs to deal with. If you are looking for simple dog boarding this place is for you, if you are looking for anything else, this may not be the place. I personally will not be back.
Great family owned operation. And with every dollar. We have a Chiweenie who enjoys her people time more so than her big dog time and this place hits the mark! They take their dogs on 4 walks a day and they get their own warm space inside with their own bed or blanket if you choose. And they send you an occasional pic or video, love love! She came home after 4 days and was in a great mood, much better than our last experience with a dog boarding kennel. Highly recommend!
Angela and Joe are the Best😉. Took very good care of my Black Lab, and he enjoys staying with them! …
Joe and Angela at Divine Dog Boarding were highly recommended by one of my friends at work, she boards her dog at Divine Dog Boarding everytime she goes on vacation. We've never Boarded our Pitbull before and wanted to check out anyone that I'd leave my dog with. I contacted Angela and setup a time for her to meet Buddy and get to know him, she requires a 4 hour free play date prior to boarding the first time. That went great, I got to know her and her husband Joe and they LOVED BUDDY. My husband and I went on vacation for ten days, Angela texted us pictures and updated us on how Buddy was adjusting to his new surroundings several times. Angela and Joe love what they do and it shows. My Buddy loved it there!!!! I highly recommend Joe and Angela they were so attentive to Buddy's needs. Their rates are reasonable which makes it all the better. Joe and Angela are good people and worthy of your trust.
We boarded our two big boys with divine dog boarding while on a 2 week family vacation. We were very nervous since we have never been away from our dogs in the past. The team did a wonderful job caring for them while we were away. Angela updated me any time there were questions or changes. One of our boys got a little home sick, but they went above and beyond to make him comfortable. They were happy and healthy upon our return! We will definitely use their services again for future trips.
The staff was amazingly receptive of all 3 of my dogs and seemed to instantly bond with each of them. Very caring individuals. And the facility was clean and warm inside on a cold fall morning when I arrived to pick up me dogs a week after returning from a business trip. A-1 care and treatment of all three dogs, they didn't even seem to want to leave.
I'm very kind and compassionate people there. Very clean. Easy access.
The best! My dogs are always cared for and I get updates. I never worry about them when they are here!
Amazing place to leave your dog for long periods of time, very caring people. They will always do anything they can to find a spot for your dog to stay, highly recommend!
Donna runs an excellent Doggie Hotel :) She and her staff have watched my dog(s) for many years now. My beloved Pinot passed away about 3 years ago and now she gets "Buddy" my little fat chihuahau/dachshund mix. Whenever I say, "wanna go see the doggies?" he gets so excited! I truly trust this place and all the workers. From my experience, you will not be disappointed, nor your best friend(s).
Highly recommend them! My dogs are happy to get out to play when we arrive in the am & happy when I pick them up. They wear down their energy playing all day while I am at work & I know they are safe. If my dogs talked, they would call it their daytime home. My pups have boarded overnight too & it has been just as great of an experience. They took extra time with my dog that was new to daycare & now he's like one of their own.
If you're looking for the best pet sitter, doggy daycare and/or dog groomer, look no more, you have found the BEST! Caren and Justin are the best! They care for your 4 legged family member as they would care for they're own. My Alaskan Malamute is a big fan of the doggy daycare 3 or 4 days a week. She can't wait to play with all of her buddies. Then comes home happy and ready for a nap.
We had a lovely experience leaving our pup Lukla with Caren while we visited Silver Falls State Park. She gave us great directions to help find their incredibly convenient location, made us feel very comfortable leaving our dog with her (our first doggy day care experience) and provided fabulous service with a smile throughout our interaction. Lukla was suitably exhausted from all the play time and slept for hours as soon as she got back in the car. On top of that she was clean, fresh and soft from her grooming after a week of camping, hiking & swimming with us in the forests and lakes of the PNW. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!!
I love this place!!! I have been boarding my dogs with Caron for as long as I can remember and I completely trust her with my fur baby's!! I also love that they are not in kennels all day but get to play in a huge fenced area. So no guilt leaving them when I know they are being loved and cared for. I highly recommend Caron.
I hate to write a bad review but I’ve got to share what happened to my little dog here. I want to say that this dog has never been boarded before and I picked this place for the “in home” atmosphere. First, it seemed a little funny when I dropped her off and wasn’t offered a tour (I should have insisted). I was suppose to meet the owner but she wasn’t there. She had a helper there who did seem attentive and capable so it felt ok. The owner did leave me a long message (I heard later) saying she wouldn’t be there so I felt like she had covered her bases. They did require proof of immunizations which I left with them. I had to fill out 3 pages of paperwork and it did feel legit. With that said, the home was a country home but absolutely filthy. I thought it was just a dog person thing but even my Husband said “it truly doesn’t have to be that bad.” I could look beyond the bad housekeeping, junk piled outside and weeds pulled and left all over the walkway in thinking my dog would be getting more love if she wasn’t busy mopping floors? I guess I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. My dog was there on a Tuesday at 11am and I picked her up on a Saturday at 3:30pm. My total was $215.00. When I picked my dog up she was covered in something sticky which is fine, they said it was ice cream. I had requested the dog get a bath prior to me picking her up (it was an option in a form). Clearly, the dog didn’t have a bath. The owner told me that over the weekend the dogs they had there all came down with kennel cough so I should watch for that. When we got in the car my dog seemed off. She wasn’t acting well at all. I looked at her closer only to be blown away by how awful she smelled. What I then noticed was black spots all over the dog. She was invaded and infested with large fleas. She had flea bites all over. She was miserable. It was awful. I brought her home and picked hundreds of fleas off of her and bathed her 4 times and have been working on controlling this problem. Our other dog (who was at home w/ our kids) I’m sure will be the next one w/ fleas. I’m going to have to treat my home and both dogs until this nightmare is over. I admit, I’m a bit of a clean freak so this is hard for me. I just can’t believe that I’ve sent a message to the owner with no response as of now. I spent a lot of money trying to do what I thought was best for my little pup but now I see it was not worth it. She is so sick from this. I did give them one star since my dog came home alive. I do believe I’m entitled to a refund for this nightmare I’m living.
Excellent facility. Personal attention given to animals. Great staff and clean safe areas for pets to sleep inside and run outside. They also now offer grooming, which I haven't tried for my dog, but I've heard good things.
Highly Recommend! My dog was taken care of as if he were there own. Great country location!
This is an absolutely wonderful place! The owners were great and really care about the animals! I will definitely take my pups back!!
Amazing business!!!! They are so great with animals and such kind hearted people. I definitely recommend them for any of your pet sitting needs!!!!!!
Great care is taken with my pup, and I love that it is a live - in facility. I know he is in good hands.
I have been dropping off my bestie/roommates new puppy for nearly 3 weeks now. She receives training (they also send email "report cards" complete with pictures - see attached), lots of playtime, and absolutely loves going here. On the mornings she does not go she whines and waits at the front door. I'm thrilled there is a place we can take her where we know she will be treated so well that she can't wait to go back. You can also watch your fuzzy family members on the cams to check on them throughout the day. I highly recommend Suite Dog Daze.
I have taken my Golden Retriever in for grooming a few times. Most recently he was a hot mess before going in. He came back beautiful. Each time I’ve taken him there they have done a spectacular job. I will gladly recommend them to anyone with a dog who loves rolling in mud.
I love suite dog daze! They have been wonderful at adapting to the needs of my silly girl. She used to be troublesome and jump fences which would prevent other facilities from allowing her to stay, but suite dog daze was able to accommodate! We have also been to many training classes which keep my girl enriched and have helped her training in addition to my understanding! When she’s gotten baths from them she is super clean and I always see what a great job the groomers do. I absolutely love them and so does my girl!
If you have a dog, Suite Dog days is the place to go for training, grooming and boarding. Lisa, the owner, is an incredible dog lover, and her staff follows in her wake. Thanks to her big heart, we were united with the most wonderful new member of our family. Thanks Lisa
My husband and I went on our honeymoon in Japan for 19 days so we wanted to make sure our dog, Brewsky, was in a place where he would feel comfortable and where we'd know he was being well taken care of. Suite Dog Daze did a great job of meeting these expectations. We didn't have any phone service in Japan so it was really awesome that we were able to check in with the live feed cameras that were available and know we could reach out via email if we needed to. We also really enjoyed the grooming service that we added so Brewsky was nice and clean when we picked him up! I would recommend this place to anyone who's traveling. It's apparent that the owner and her staff have a deep love and compassion for all the dogs that stay so you know your furry child is safe and cared for!
I will be coming back here with all my dogs! My malamute got sprayed by a skunk and they got me in the very next day as early as possible. They were so nice and understanding, and he came out CLEAN. He is usually pretty grumpy when we try to give him a bath or do his nails at home, but somehow the groomer made him comfortable enough to where he didn’t have any issues. He was so floofy and clean, his nails were perfect, and he even came out with a cute little bandana. I love those guys!
BEWARE!!! This place is not what it seems! I write this review in hopes that it will save others from the disappointment, stress and financial strain using this place has caused me. Let me also preface this by saying that I had reasonable expectations that my dogs would be cared for in the manner for which I paid and I am well aware of the inherent risks associated with boarding dogs. The first time I used Suite Dog Daze(SDD) services I took my two dogs for an afternoon of daycare and baths and one of them wound up with a double ear infection which resulted in at least $200 in vet bills. I thought maybe this was just a coincidence…. For my second experience with SDD I boarded my two dogs for a few days and a few days after picking them up one of them turned up with kennel cough (both dogs are vaccinated and I know it is not guaranteed to protect them) When I called and notified SDD staff they said “we’ll make a note of it”. The conversation was so short and felt very dismissive and unconcerned. The third experience with SDD was the worst and absolutely not the level of care I thought I was paying for. This was a 6 day stay through the Thanksgiving holiday. Already on edge that this wasn’t quite the safest place for them to stay, I checked the cameras more frequently and what I found broke my heart and confirmed my fears. What I thought I was paying for posted on their website : “5ft x 10ft x 6ft, and larger, Or 4ftx8ftx6ft. All day play included!” Note: there is also a disclaimer that says “(SDD reserves the right to choose best fit accommodations for each dog which may include a crates versus a suite.” In this case they decided my two dogs would stay in a very small crate on the cold floor for the duration of their stay. No cot, no blanket, in the”training room” and often spending at least 16 hours in the kennel. They were fed together in the same small kennel during which the larger of my two dogs ate the most of the other dog’s food, which doesn’t usually happen with just a little bit of supervision. “Play time” consisted of the dogs just pacing around the room following the handler cleaning up after them. Not once did I see any engagement with the dogs. With each passing day, my concerns mounted and I watched the cameras more often and witnessed one of my dogs get sprayed with water while the garage door was open in the 30-40 degree weather. It is no surprise that both of my dogs got sick. After stressing for my entire trip about what was happening to my dogs, I rushed back from the airport and attempted pick up at 12:20. Only to find the office closed from 12-2 which is only posted on the front door. Thankfully someone responded to my message via Facebook and allowed the bather on site to deliver my dogs. Upon pickup, both dogs smelled like urine, both had runny noses and sneezes, congestion and cough. Both obviously sick and absolutely exhausted. As if that wasn’t awful enough, the smaller of my two dogs had small cuts all over his body. This place brags on their website about a ratio of 1/10 handlers/dogs which was not the case any time I checked the cameras. In fact I noticed a complete lack of care every time I checked the cameras which was frequent because I had a bad feeling. There were many times I checked the cameras and couldn’t even locate my dogs. Much to my dismay, after doing some digging, I found other reviews on this place that nearly mirrored my experiences. Yes, there are inherent risks when boarding your dogs but each time I used this place something bad happened to my dogs. As a disabled veteran or any dog mom for that matter, it is very disappointing to spend so much money to have someone care for your pets (family) and then to have to turn around and spend hundreds more in vet bills. I suspect this place has its tentacles deeply rooted in the local community which is why it has been able to continue to treat dogs so poorly and get away with it.
First time experience for my dog and I was thankful for the welcoming staff! My dog was nervous, but having the ability to watch the livestream video alleviated my concerns. My dog adjusted and did well. The staff are very helpful and kind!!
We have brought our dog Daisy to this facility for several months, utilizing both daycare and boarding. Daisy is a very social and happy dog and enjoyed playing with other dogs. We boarded her (for the second time) over Thanksgiving for two nights. As she jumped into our truck upon pick-up the smell that hit me was atrocious. She was covered in MALE urine. Not just on her paws….all over her body and her paws were obviously burning as she was licking them continuously in the car. This was the second time that we had an experience like this there. When I brought this up to the owner Lisa in an email, she had many excuses of why this can and does happen. She then tried to place the blame back on us for not prescheduling a bath for Daisy on departure. That is unacceptable. At the very least, I should have been notified of Daisy’s condition, and they should have attempted to remove some of urine off of her. I think no one even realized to be honest, which in itself is concerning. There should be a reasonable expectation of safety and care and this fell far below that reasonable expectation. Daisy will not be going back….
The groomers at Suite Dog Daze worked a miracle with my dog. He is a large long haired, double coated dog who has historically been so anxious and rowdy with groomers that he has been turned away by them. I brought Kooper in pretty rough condition, matted in multiple areas and with a ton of energy first thing in the morning. The grooming team called my about 4 hours later saying he was ready for pick up, I half expected to pick up a shaved and anxious dog from them, but instead was pleasantly surprised to see they were able to work out all the matting and undercoat without shaving him at all! I was so happy with their wonderful work! I will absolutely be bringing him back again!
Kat’s daughter Shannon and her partner Tim, watched my husband’s and I’s 3 dogs and kitten. We were super anxious because this was our first time traveling without our pets. It made us feel a lot better that they offer to stay in home with our pets, especially because it was a holiday season. We got to meet Kat beforehand and she got to know our pets and their habits/routines. They sent us pictures every other day and communicated with us. Our pets seem happy and healthy upon our return, and our house was clean as well, so we will definitely use again in the future!!
Kat and her husband Chris were absolutely the best people to have come to our home and watch our 3 dogs and cat. Not only did they make our animals feel better that we were gone for 4 days, but they took care of things around the house for us as well. Kat and Chris went above and beyond to make sure my boyfriend, our animals and I were happy. Kat sent me pictures of all the animals during each visit to show me how they all were doing while we were all the way in Phoenix Arizona. All the animals loved them as well as well us. My oldest dog has diabetes and requires a shot of insulin after each meal, so I was stressed to the max while trying to find someone to watch them. Kat did a wonderful job of making sure my old guy was completely taken care of with his meds, and hand feeding him, as he is extremely spoiled. If you need someone to come and watch your pets, Kat and Chris are the people to ask
Kat took excellent care of our kitty while we were away. She was friendly and very thorough in her initial meet and greet which really makes you feel like she understands animals and their various needs. We got regular updates and will definitely reach out to her again when we go away next!
Purrs 'n' Wags Pet Sitting has been my go-to source for excellent care when I have to leave my pup. They are highly professional, very caring, and just the best people for peace of mind when I can't be at home. Kat is the only one I want taking care of my dog and the two have bonded beautifully. They also, by the way, do dog walking! They are the absolute best!
Kat has watched our pets for a couple of years. We have a cat, guinea pig and dog. She sends pictures every day of our pets. We highly recommend Purrs 'n' Wags Pet Sitting
The owners of PnW are very caring, careful and reliable. They have pet sat in my home several times over several years and I trust them implicitly. They have given my pets medications and responded quickly to special requests. I don't know what I would do without them!
So happy to know our 3 dogs were well loved and cared for while we were away. They took time to learn about our dogs in advance. We will definitely use them again!
We love Purr "n' Wags. Kat takes such good care of our pets.
Kind hearted and caring the service provided was excellent!!!
It seemed like a pretty cool play!!
The best kennel we have ever used. The dogs are always excited when pull up. Friendly staff that communicates wonderfully. We are so lucky to have such a great facility in West Salem.
Such a wonderful place and setup for our Sophie Bear. She is so very excited to visit and is so happy and well cared for when we pick her up. Thank you for providing such a wonderful safe loving home away from home. Highly recommend. 😍💖
Love this location and the people. They are always super nice and accommodating. The fur baby loves it too!
Really cool place with tons of room for the dogs to run and play. The people are also very friendly. Excited that my dog can go somewhere where he'll be able to have fun while we are away.
Great place! Took my dog there for daycare and he loved it. Lauren does a great job and understands dogs. Will definitely be returning.
My dogs love this place. Prices are fantastic. They take great care of all of my dogs, and they come home exhausted from all the fun they have had.
They take good care of our dog Dutch every time she's there.
Great facility for dogs, country atmosphere. Very nice staff. My dog likes coming here.
Our pup likes it here. Staff is very nice and caring.
Checked business out today for upcoming trip. Place looked clean and well kept up. Will definitely use in the future.
Debby has been taking excellent care of our furry buddies for several years. She takes the time to get to know each of our pets treating them as if they were her own. Debby has been wonderful about meeting the unique needs of each pet and situation. She quickly returns calls to schedule pet sitting and is most willing to stay in touch, when needed, while we are away to let us know how things are going back home. We place complete trust in Debby each and every time we leave our beloved pets and our house in her care. We cannot imagine having anyone else provide pet care services for us! We need more than 5 stars to say how much we appreciate all that she does for us while we are away. Thank you Debby!
Debby has been our pet sitter for the past 5 years and has taken care of our cats every time we are away from home. The first cat she cared for was a very long-haired Persian we adopted when the kitty was 14 years old. She was a fabulous kitty but had some medical problems and all the Persian-specific issues, including requirement for daily eye care and brushing. Our second kitty, also a Persian, adopted as an adolescent kitten, requires similar daily attention. Debby has taken great care of both cats. In addition, she provides updates (text messages or phone calls) on a regular basis when we are away for more than 1-2 days. We are extremely pleased with the service she provides and are very glad she is willing to travel from Albany to Corvallis to take care of our pets.
Pet Watchers has been meeting our needs and exceeding our expectations for over 10 years. Debby is dependable and reliable, providing loving, attentive care to our pets as well as giving our home the appearance of being occupied when we are away. We highly recommend Pet Watchers.
I have had Petwatchers watch my pets for many years now. I tend to be picky about their care and Petwatchers aways exceeds my expectations. I have many types of animals from dogs, cats, chicken, fish and even my three very spoiled horses. I come home from vacation and my home and pets act and look like I was never gone. I rate her 5+ stars!!!!!!
Very reliable and available on short notice. My dogs seem happy and comfortable when I get home. She takes care of my bird too.
