Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
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 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 were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
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.

Hello. We found Skys the Limit pet service on line after we learned that our normal sitter was unavailable. Our rescue dog is very much the homebody and prefers to be home vs anywhere else. I believe Skys the limit did very well this being my dogs first encounter. Their outdoor facility was exceptional. My dog was able to run and play outdoors. They provided many photos to show the dogs adjustment and interaction to other dogs. They were professional and required vaccination documentation upfront. I believe my dog to have had a good experience at Skys the limit. I will use them in the future.
This will sound fake, but honestly she can do it all. I’ve used her for boarding for my dogs, I’ve used her to go check up on my cat, she’s taught my dog to walk on a gentle leader because my dog was too strong for me and always pulling me. Not anymore thanks to Aki. She takes my dogs for walks around my neighborhood, she picks up to take to the dog park. She goes hiking with them for hours every Thursday. Shes extremely educated with the skill set to run her business with compassion and confidence. She sends daily pics and videos. She’s punctual and caring and my animals L O V E her. I can always rest assured that everything’s under control with Aki. She’s a real class act. I’ve been a client for around 4 years. She was recommended to me by a friend at the dog park🐾 We highly recommend her!
I found out about Sky's the Limit pet service because I needed someone to watch my two yorkies while I'm at work. I'm not really a fan of sending my dogs to a boarding place because of how many other dogs there are. So I contacted Aki and she offered to walk my dogs for me while I'm out and play with them in the house. She totally seems to love dogs and my dogs have become quite fond of her. I love how my dogs can be taken care of in the comfort of their own home and all for less than a lot of boarding places!
Aki is the best. By providing daily pictures and updates, we knew our dog was safe, happy, and well taken care of.
Aki does a wonderful job with the dogs. It’s the most fun they can have!
The best in the north
Hi Robert, you have never used our service yet and I'm wondering why we got 3 stars from you. I'd appreciate it if you could let us know. Thank you!
This is the BEST place… it has everything you need- grooming - day care - boarding and training. My husky is now a senior and I wanted to find a groomer that would be caring and considerate of her needs and still do an amazing job … Larrissa is this person… I have never met a more caring and knowledgable person. My dog was immediately comfortable with her and everyone she met there. Also it did not take alllll day like at most other groomers. My dogs nails and fur never looked so good… and my dog was super comfortable and happy! I will be coming back there !!! I am sincere about this review… this is one of the best kept secrets…there are many places I could go that are closer to my home but this is the best place with the best people. Very authentic and caring and professional. Thank you again Dog On Fun… we will be back soon!!!!
I was very please with the hospitality and customer service I received at DogOnFun boarding service. This was a last minute thing and first time experience for me. I am please to have met Samantha. She answered all my question, coach and walked me through it. to add, I had to catch a flight out of LAX within 24 hours, so she went out of her way to find a animal hospital that day for me, that would would verify and certify the on boarding vaccine requirements at a low cost and then accommodated me and my boys after hours for delivery. To ease my worries, she promised me daily photos and text status updates. To accommodate my boys, abandonment issues, I receive daily photos from Nancy, the care taker, of my boys having fun and what appeared to be a play area. This made it easier on me, while I was away for seven days. When I returned, I was running late at night due to the L.A., traffic. Samantha said, no worries, she understood the importance of the first time reunion and accommodated me once again, with after hour pick up. When I picked up my boys, I paid attention to see if they were distress at all. They showed no signs, so this tells me, they had a good experience and would not be afraid to return, my next go round. Due to my wonderful experience, DogOnFun are my preferred Boarding partners. I thank Samantha, Nancy and Team for providing such a professional services.
My dog Deuce and I have been coming to Dog On Fun since 2012, and have seen changes in the name as well as three changes in ownership. All the owners have been great in their own unique way, but Samantha is by far the best, as well as my favorite. Her and her staff go above and beyond to take care of Deuce. Deuce has special needs, and can sometimes be a grumpy old man. Samantha and her crew always make sure that he gets all of his medication, even when he is being stubborn, and he doesn't want to take it, or eat his food. Despite Deuce’s grumpiness, the staff at dog on fun always made sure that he got plenty of exercise and plenty of love. When he was temperamental, with one worker, another worker would take their place and care for Deuce. They always make sure that he has a pillow since he has had two hip replacements and also suffers from Degenerative Myelopathy. I would highly recommend Samantha and Dog On Fun to any and everyone, especially those with difficult dogs. They are patient, they are kind, and they are more than capable of dealing with the dogs, and ensuring their happiness and their well-being.
I used Dog On Fun for my baby boy and we both loved it! He was there for 10 days. They did lots of exercising in the early hours of the day so the dogs don’t get over heated. All dogs are kept separate to make sure there is so unwanted dog fights. Staff is very nice and knowledgeable! They will even send you daily pictures of your pup! Would definitely recommend this place to everyone!
I can't recommend Dog on Fun enough! Samantha and her team absolutely love dogs and know how to take care of them. I have a 106 lb German Shepherd who can be quite the handful, but they've had no problem with him. My dog also seems to really like them as well. Finally, the team there is very accommodating. I brought my dog here as I attended funeral services for my grandparents and they were able to organize an early drop off or late pick-up as I needed it. The entire team is extremely friendly and helpful, plus they know exactly what they're doing. You will not regret leaving your dog in their care.
Full disclosure, I'm a relatively new dog mom! That said, I owe a great deal of thanks and praise to Dog on Fun! Samantha has been incredibly supportive, kind, and generous with her wealth of knowledge. My little guy has LOTS of energy and he LOVES going to daycare! He even starts getting excited when we head over! Sometimes he doesn't want to come home! 🤣 I don't take it personally, though. It just signals to me that he enjoys his time with the caring staff members. I appreciate the time they take to meet his needs, to make sure the kennel is sanitary and clean, and to send back his food bowls squeaky clean! I can't imagine taking Cash anywhere else. They are an integral part of our village and I'm grateful for their services.
Do not leave your dog or dogs hear for boarding. There stay was only 2 nights. My dogs received eye/face trauma. My vet diagnosis is suspected trauma. The sign/evidence is the blood in the white part of the eyes. Both of my dogs have the trauma. One has it in both eyes the other is one eye. As well now one of them is skittish towards men. He was not like this before. My husband interacts with him all the time. This has deeply hurt our family. We no longer trust any boarding/kennel. I will get a dog sitter in the future to make sure they are treated properly.
My dog Xena has been coming here for alittle over 7 years. She loves this place and the people that work here. I admit I was sad to hear Shireen was no longer going to be the owner but Samantha is as good as Shireen was. They love your furry babies as much as you do. I will recommend this facility to anyone looking for a great place to leave your dog.
I work long hours, so I take my dog, Rogue, to Dog on Fun a few days a week. Samantha is extremely flexible, which is very important with my ever-changing schedule. The staff at Dog On Fun treat Rogue like a member of their own family. Rogue is a high-drive German Shepherd puppy who requires lots of exercise and loves to destroy everything she touches. Samantha and her staff always ensure Rogue has plenty of toys to keep her occupied. They are so sweet that, on occasion, they have bought Rogue toys they figure she would have a hard time destroying. Rogue has ripped up a few pillows at the kennel. This week, Samantha got Rogue a special rug (hoping she wouldn't destroy it) and a chew treat to keep her mouth busy. The thoughtfulness and love Samantha and her employees show Rogue keep me coming back time after time. Dogs On Fun is a little out of the way for me. However, I drive a few cities over to take Rogue there because I know Rogue is in good hands when she is there.
We have been coming for about a year, and I would give six stars. Staff is super friendly to me and my furry beast, and really seems to love dogs. I get regular pictures of our dog’s adventures during his stays, and our dog always seems happy when we arrive for another visit! I always feel like he is in good hands when he is at Dog on Fun - thank you!
