Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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
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
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!

Courtenay
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
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
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.

Elizabeth
Shaina was a great sitter for my cat Lionel. She was great with communicating before the sit and was willing to come meet me in person before the sit. She also kept me updated throughout the sit, with photos and little notes. When I returned home the flat was tidy and Lionel seemed happy!

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.
KOLBY
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
SARA
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Hannah & Dominic
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Kaori
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
Will
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
Claire
Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
Paola
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
Steven
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!

Absolutely LOVE Ruffy Ranch. Allore treats all the dogs as if they are the only one there. The handlers are amazing along with the facility. Our baby has been going about 2 times a week and has spent the night and it’s so comforting to know he’s in the best care. I love how I get pics sent to me throughout the day of what my baby is up to. Can’t say enough good about Ruffy Ranch Retreat ❤️❤️
This place is so wonderful and welcoming that you'll wish we could go there as humans for the day. From the minute you walk in the front door you are greeted with a huge welcoming smile. I know my dog is loved on all day long. He absolutely goes crazy when we pull in the driveway because he knows how much fun he is going to have for the day. I did board him for five days and couldn’t be more happy with the care he received. Allore sent me pictures consistently, and in every picture he was smiling and or being loved on by one of the employees. There is no doubt that they take pride in their work. I cannot imagine a better place to take my dog.
This place is the not only the cutest doggy daycare on the planet it's absolutely amazing all around. Our beefy boy loves his play dates, comes home and sleeps for 8+ hours. He takes us to his leash every morning excited that he might be going to visit his new friends. He's well taken care of there. We've not trusted anyone with our baby boy Diesel Franklin, but we trust RRR. They treat you & your fur babies like family there. Such a wonderful staff, Diesel loves them all. 10/10 recommended!
My dog loves going here. Allure is always in a great mood and absolutely loves animals. You can tell she enjoys what she does. She always sends pictures of our dog throughout the day. It is nice to have a doggy daycare place around the area to bring our dog to. I highly recommend ruffy ranch as Allure is amazing and always responds to questions and calls.
If you want your four legged baby cared for in a 5 star resort fashion this is your place. My Lab is spoiled at Ruffy Ranch even better than if she was at home. I feel comfortable when she is in their care and can enjoy my day knowing she is safe and having a fun day
We could not say enough positive things about Ruffy's Ranch. The owner and staff have been so accommodating and so willing to work with our dog, who is very apprehensive about new environments and grooming. We would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone. We are SO thankful and our dog looks amazing thanks to the team!
We absolutely love our friends at Ruffy Ranch Retreat! Our energetic puppy comes home worn out from playing outside all day. She is always clean and happy after her fun days at daycare, and it brings us such peace of mind knowing that she is loved and taken care of while we’re not with her! Allore is caring, passionate about her work, and treats both owners and dogs with the same enthusiasm and kindness every time they walk through the door. Her staff is equally as wonderful, and this beautiful space has been the best addition to our puppy’s routine! The Fenton area is so lucky to have Allore and her team - we ❤️ RRR! 🐶
I really wanted to love this boarding facility because it’s a beautiful, new building and the owner is incredibly sweet. I also appreciated the daily photo updates of my dog, which is a nice touch. However, after boarding my dog here twice, I can’t overlook the health issues we encountered. After his first stay, my dog came home and within two days started showing signs of an upper respiratory infection. A visit to the vet confirmed that it likely stemmed from either unsanitary conditions or exposure to another sick dog while being boarded. He had to go on antibiotics for a week to recover, which was concerning, but I gave the facility the benefit of the doubt. I contacted the owner and she was very responsive and assured me she would sanitize the facility completely. I hoped this was a one time issue, so I decided to give them another try. Unfortunately, after his second stay, the same thing happened. This time he developed green yellow discharge from his eyes – something he had never experienced before. I’ve boarded my dog at other facilities in the past and never had any issues. He’s up-to-date on all vaccines, extremely healthy outside of these 2 issues based on the vets report, and the only time he’s ever been sick is after returning home from this facility. It’s frustrating and just not worth the hassle of dealing with a sick dog every time he stays here. Additionally, I feel like the facility adds on some unnecessary extra fees. For example, they charge a half-day daycare fee for the initial mandatory interview, even though it only lasted about 15-20 minutes. In my experience, most places don’t charge for this at all. The backyard is also quite muddy as it appears to be a mulch/dirt play area, so every time my dog comes home, he’s very dirty and in need of a bath – which they’ll charge $65 (for my 60lb dog) if you want it done there. It would be nice if they would either reduce that fee because it's going to be needed no matter what after a day spent in their yard, or offer to run them under some clean water so you don't get your car dirty if you opt to bathe them yourself post-pickup. Picking up your dog after noon incurs an additional daycare fee, which is standard at a lot of places but still something to be aware of. My biggest concern, however, is the appearance of a lack of thorough and frequent disinfecting of the facility. It’s a real shame because I wanted to love this place, but I won’t be returning, and I would advise others to be aware of this as well.
Long winded negative reviews are only meant to hurt a business. That review you left was ugly and I suspect ur dog was already sick and or your dog is not completely vaccinated. Ya! There is mud in the back. They just finished building that place. Also leaving a review with just 1 star and not stating why is only intended to hurt the business and is a selfish self serving act. i hope potential customers see this for what it is. I don't know the owners but I plan on making an appointment and I will be happy to pay $25 for interview. This is not Ruffy's first roedo. They know the importance of a clean place. .
I absolutely love this place. My doogos have been in daycare or boarding for 4+ years and immediately switched them to RRR the moment it opened and have never looked back. Allore is literally the best and my dogs get beyond excited when I pull in to drop them off for the day. She has put her heart and soul in this business and it shows. It spotless and she is always thinking about what the dogs would love for enrichment. Highly recommend!
