Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
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!
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
Kerry and Megan were wonderful sitters and took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation for two weeks. They were responsive, gave us regular updates, and seemed to really care about Tumba and Cappa. When Tumba was more timid toward the beginning of our trip and not eating her meals fully, Kerry was sure to ask for additional suggestions from us on how to coax her to eat more. Kerry and Megan also left the house just as we'd left it for them. We really appreciated them going the extra mile to ask about additional cleaning products so they could clean our bathrooms. It felt great to come home and just relax without needing to remake the bed. Thanks for everything, Kerry and Megan! We would certainly entrust our home and kitties to you again in the future.
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.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
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!
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
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 20$ per visit, $30/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!
Great place for daycare or overnight stay for your dog. Splinter gets so excited when we turn onto the road and he sees the building. It is easy to see everyone there really loves dogs and Valeri, the business owner, is so nice and easy to work with. I feel confident my Splinter is happy and safe at Rover. Highly recommended!
Great place, good energy. Valeri was easy to talk to. She even took the time to send me a couple of pictures of my dog Hank with his new play pals. The look on Hank's face said it all. (Happy dog.) And speaking of Hank, he's been pestering me to let him say a few words about his stay at,"Send rover on over." Hi Hank here, I promised my mom I'd keep it short. But it will be tough because i have soo much to say. I really like this place. I have a new best pal, "Milo." He's everything you'd want in a friend. Fun, funny and spontaneous. He even looks like me After a hard morning of play we have naptime. Now, naptime is not something I usually look forward to but I actually welcomed it here. The people that work here are kind and friendly. And get this, we even get to bring our own bed and blanket for overnighters. How cool is that!? I give ,"Send rover on over" 5 plus tail wags.
This place is wonderful. They are very knowledgeable about dogs and provide a high quality experience.
If you have a fur baby and need day care, play dates, boarding or training Send Rover on Over is the place. I trust Valerie and staff with my heart. Her name is Molly. She has so much fun playing with the other pups and begins whinning as soon as we turn onto their road. I can't recommend it more highly.
My dog loves it here! Great supervision. Dogs are carefully assessed for temperament, and grouped with dogs with similar energy levels. No aversive methods used. My dog comes home tired but not exhausted.
Started bringing my Wesite weekly for daycare to socialize and we couldn't be happier. Valerie is so knowledgable , caring and truly an advocate for the dogs in her care. I felt she really knows her craft and watches out for all of the dogs, choosing what is best for them in different situations. My Westie is so happy now to go for her "day of play"..Next we will plan an overnight . I Know my dog will be in the best of hands..Highly recommend
Very happy to say that "Oliver" the groomer listen to what I wanted. He nailed it. Schnauzer cut all the way. Valeri is easy to talk to, she worked with me on my time. I have a new grooming family. Woohoo.
Very insightful related to dogs, dog care, breeds, disposition etc. Training and socialization are core part of the system and they are In touch and in tune the individual dog. We were pleasantly surprised that Becca correctly identified the dog's breed which had excaped us. She served as the advocate for the dog and his interest: we could not have asked for anything more. All the dog's in daycare seemed happy and content.
My dog got kennel cough her because Val goes on the 'HONOR SYSTEM" when it comes to checking pet vaccines. Been boarding and going to classes with my sogs for 25 years and this has never happened. Very unprofessional.
Had "Signature" waygu burger. Hooked to perfection. If you want medium rare, order medium. Margaritas made with fresh ingredients. Can hardly wait to try their ribs.
Fetch made is so easy to find a great sitter for our dogs. Ours dogs loved the company each night while we were out of town. Would highly recommend!
Fetch has become my go-to dog walking service over the past couple of years. It’s easy to schedule dog sitters and I’ve been able to use the same two wonderful walkers, giving me great peace of mind. Robyn, the owner, is wonderful to communicate with, and I’m also able to communicate directly with my dog walkers. The status reports with pictures and updates for each visit are so thoughtful and appreciated. Fetch is the best. I’ll keep coming back! 🎾
We had the most wonderful pet sitter through Fetch! She was so attentive and her updates were charming and detailed and so much fun for us to read - and the photos were fantastic! We were able to relax on our trip knowing our kitties were in very capable and conscientious hands. Cannot recommend Fetch more highly.
I’ve been a client of Fetch for several years and I would highly recommend them to any pet owner. We use Emily to visit our three cats and could not be happier. Prompt, professional, trustworthy. What else could anyone want.
Fetch is a truly great company with a wide variety of services, reliable and caring staff, quick response rates, and reasonable rates. I’ve used them for several years and have never had a problem.
Fetch! were a huge help when we were staying at Cavallo Lodge with our dog and needed someone to come to the hotel and stay with her on New Year's Eve. They found a perfect match for our pup. They were responsive and very professional and our sitter put us (and our pup) quickly at ease that our pup was in good hands. We would definitely use them again.
Fetch! Always takes care of our two cats! They always manage to fit us in with a pet sitter even at the last minute. Really helpful company. Would recommend highly.
We have used Fetch Pet Care for our 17 year old poodle. Because of her age she needs a little extra TLC. Fetch has proven very dependable and kind with out dog. They kept us posted while we were out of town how she was doing and contacted us with any questions. Our house was left in perfect condition and we came home to a very well cared for dog.
We moved to Sonoma 2 years ago and feel so lucky to have found our petsitter Lois, through Fetch. She's reliable, caring and easy to work with. Our two older cats now require medication and Lois has been very accommodating with their changing needs. Most importantly, the kitties are completely comfortable around her and we feel good knowing we've left them, and our home, in capable hands.
We have been using Fetch for many year to care for our cats while we travel. It has always been a great comfort to know that the pets we loved were being so well cared for. The daily journals and pictures we received showed are cats as active and happy. The litter is always clean when we return. In addition, our plants had been watered and mail taken in. Once, part of a tree fell in our yard, and the pet sitter texted us pictures, which allowed us to schedule tree service as soon as we got home. Our current pet sitter is a delight to work with. We sometimes think our cat is disappointed when we return. In short you could not do better than using Fetch for your petcare needs.
I met Marina several years ago and she took care of our dog, Milo with the best care we could ask for. She stayed in our home for vacations and did day visits at other times. We lost our Milo last year and since I miss seeing Marina. She is a gem!
Marina is the best! She is so very kind, thoughtful, organized and has an excellent communication style. Our little dog is in heaven when he stays with Marina. He is treated like royalty!
Our little pooch Eddie has totally loved his times with Marina and family when we've had to be away. And wherever we were, we got sent regular photos and videos of Eddie with his canine pals playing together and living the good life! Comfort and care supreme for Eddie, and the SAME for us! Five stars isn't enough!
We met Marina when our puppy was just about ten weeks old. She's helped us over the years in several ways: coming by for an hour, watching the dogs all day, or even house sitting. Marina is very reliable and trustworthy. She sends pictures several times a day. Our doggy loves her and is always excited to see her. We have friends we'd referred Marina to, who are just as happy wth her as we are. We recommend Marina without any reservation.
Marina is the best pet and home sitter we have ever encountered. She is kind, reliable, honest - I could go on and on. Marina truly cares about animals. Everything she says and does makes that clear from the start. She sat for our very active young lab and and he adores her. Marina is always our first choice for pet and home sitting.
I have used Marina's services several times. She is awesome! I have 3 dogs two are seniors and one is special needs. They all love her. She goes above and beyond for her clients. I feel very comfortable with her in my home. She was in constant communication with me sending many pictures. I was confident my pets were in the best hands. I highly recommend her.
Marina is an absolute dream pet sitter. You can tell she really loves animals and my dogs picked up on that the moment they met her. She is clean, conscientious, communicative, and responsible, and just a lovely human. I trust her 100% with my precious fur babies!
Marina is a treasure! She is absolutely reliable. She is someone whom you can count on to make the same decisions you would if she can’t in touch with you. She has an almost magical connection to animals including our skittish cats and our bouncy German Shepherd. She is someone whom you can trust.
Our dog loves being in Marina’s care! And we love how generously Marina takes care of our big 75-pound baby. You couldn’t ask for more from this pet caregiver. You and your pet will be lucky to connect with her.
I hired Marina to stay with my dog for three days and two nights while I was out of town, and when I came home I could tell my little girl Roweena was disappointed to see me and wished that Marina would stay on indefinitely. Lol,… no seriously, I really cannot say enough good about Marina. Your pet could not be placed in better, more loving hands.
The first time I saw Chris Z of GDDC&SC he was walking 9 dogs near where I work- I had just moved to Willits & could not believe my good fortune because I had only seen that action on NatGeoWild!! So with his permission, I filmed him & then got his number. As soon as I was off work, I made arrangements for my two dogs to pack walk with him & also got on his waiting list for when he opened his shop on Main Street. (BTW! The design of the shop is just amazing! Go Diz!) - My Lab mix had basic training but was so under-exercised (combined w/ my own inconsistent pack leadership) that he often redirected his energy escalating-to-aggression upon seeing dog-passersby (-esp in the car) toward my usually dominate beagle-mix. And she had her own issues too: very nervous around other dogs (no kidding ya?); she would salivate to the point of dripping foamy spit like a St Bernard. Well Chris has rehabilitated them both. Bongo the lab is a high energy boy & Chris’s work & service has been a game changer for him. See him sleeping - photo below? That’s an after school napnap! Bongo is also a recovering Ballaholic & has learned how to play ball w/o fixating on the ball because Chris trained me HOW to enforce a “wait” before bolting after the ball-it was a revelation. Sook is also thrilled & says “thank you Chris!: no more redirected/misdirected chomps” & now (bonus!) she has other friends to share a lounge chair with! (See photo - /not at the shop/five years ago she would have been hiding under a bush slobbering uncontrollably) If you have ever wished to have access to a world class dog whisperer-little Willits Ca has a bonafide one right here. Chris is a joy to be around, he is simply gifted & has worked for years to hone his craft. (He was a dog walker in NYC!) My dogs adore him I adore him. NYC surely misses him. I would be remiss if I did not also share that Chris served in a sacred duty for me in a most unusual way - before the pandemic - by handling my dogs at my mother’s graveside service. It was a comfort to have them with me; my mom loved dogs & all animals, so having my dogs there was a way of honoring that part of her. Chris understood this & was also the only person that I could have trusted on that particular day to handle them so that I (and they!) could remain completely relaxed regarding behavior and safety on the day she was buried; (Background: Chris does pickups and dropoffs) and on that day - Christmas Eve- he took them to and from the cemetery, such compassion & support one never forgets; during that period of time he also helped me pull my frail mother up in her bed on several occasions (while she was in Hospice care at my home) then took my dogs off to play school. In addition, he is extremely conscientious about cleaning his facility, his gear and vehicle. He masks up before coming into contact w/ his clients and visitors to the shop. I (and many) appreciate that additional professionalism.
Chris has a great business model that is very hard to find. He has professionalism, yet at the same time is so personable to be around and loves the dogs like his own. You know your dog will be in good hands with Chris. Each day he takes all the dogs on a long pack walk, which is great for the dogs physically, socially, and is like a lesson for the new pack members as they learn to walk along with the group. Plus they just love it! After that they head back to the Day Care for the rest of the day for more fun and some relaxation. We have also had Chris do some one on one work with our dog to help her with some leash training and other skills and he did an amazing job. I highly recommend Chris!
We have a mixed breed dog that is an only child of older parents. So needless to say, he had some issues. We were so happy when we came upon Chris' Good Dog Day Care & Social Club because it was exactly what all 3 of us needed. We had been searching for a long time and driving from Potter Valley was well worth it once we found him! Chris is a skilled and knowledgeable dog master. Right off the bat he told us a few things we needed to change and work on with our dog. For the next couple of days he took extra time to model for us and work with our dog, not just telling us what to do. By pointing out ways we could improve our work with our dog his behavior began to change, too. He was so helpful! We appreciated his frankness and honesty, as it was exactly what we needed as dog owners. One can rest assured that while your dog is at Good Dog Day Care & Social Club they will be attentively watched and taken care of so that they feel balanced and comfortable. Be sure to take Chris up on the Pack Walks because your dog will be one happy camper being part of a pack! His prices are incredibly reasonable and he is willing to take the time to share his expertise with you. Quit wasting time on YouTube training videos! Chris is the real deal.
We were so happy to find Chris, we have two dogs that needed some socializing and long walks. He is very friendly, professional and was so helpful with our one dog that needed a little extra socializing. He also really helped me have more control when they are on the leash, walks are so much more enjoyable now! Our dogs loved it when they spend the day with Chris and the pack. I always like to see the crew walking around town. Thanks Chris!
Maggie and Sadie LOVED going to Good Dog Daycare with Chris! Unfortunately we moved out of the area and I’m pretty sure the girls still miss going. We highly recommend Chris/Good Dog Daycare and Social Club! It’s the best!
Chris was super nice and caring to my dog. He took great care of him while I was at work and my boy was always tired and happy when I picked him up. I would highly recommend him if you need a dog sitter.
We had booked an app-based sitter nearby, but when we showed up the day of our vacation, the situation was not at all what we were told it would be or safe for our dogs, so we called Blue Ribbon and they made an exception to their normal rules for us to drop off in the afternoon. They took great care of our dogs and saved our vacation since we could go and actually relax, knowing they were safe.
Blue Ribbon Pets is exactly what your dog needs. It is a daycare and overnight kennel. They are kind and personable. I have kept my small dog overnight many times. The staff is knowledgeable and your pet is safe. They offer other services such as nail trimming and baths. Truly a great place.
I’m not sure if they have a new groomer but my one dog looks, and smells, awful! I’m pretty sure they did not even give him a bath. His face is dirty and he smells like baby wipes. His hair on his face is crooked. I asked them to shave my other dogs bottom, and they did not. In addition, it cost $240 for both dogs before tip. Both dogs are under 20 lbs and they were last at this groomer 3 months ago. Last time I was very happy with the outcome. I’m not sure what happened this time, but it is awful. I’m very disappointed because I had been so happy with them in the past. I didn’t expect this. The picture below is 15 minutes after leaving the groomer. They also did not trim his toenails.
Dropped off my dog on a Friday and picked her up Sunday. She had a great time and came back acting very relaxed. I had no anxiety about dropping her off. Everyone there were very kind and informative.
They are great here! My dog detested getting her nails trimmed in any way. They were patient enough to take her and spend the time she needed to get her nails done. They also gave us home recommendations to make the visits easier for her. She's made a lot of progress in the few visits we've had. So thankful for the team at blue ribbon!!
I'm very happy with Blue Ribbion Pets,they gave my cat a BATH, cut nails ,she smelled dirty, when I walked in ,now she smell wonderful, they calmed her down before bath. When I give my cat another bath ,im taken her there.
Great people. I have my dog groomed and short or long term pet boarding.
Tried them for the first time and the first thing I noticed was the attention they paid to the animals. My Max was not so anxious about being left behind. Then when I picked him up I could tell that he had been well cared for. He also looked amazing, he has never looked so good after a visit to the doggie spa. In short I am extremely satisfied and Max will be back and he will never go to another groomer THANK YOU Blue Ribbon Pets for taking such good care of my boy.
Horrible experience. HORRIBLE. The owner Kelly Boesel is very unprofessional. I was trying to board my cats there in an emergency but she refused my business screamed at me that i had shorted her brother on a job he did for me. I asked her who her brother was because I have never shorted anyone in my life on any job, even bad jobs, She told me Pest Control. I never had any pest control done at either of my houses. Then she said, "you look like a person who is going to dump there pets on me".!!!! OMG this woman was so rude and stupid. I offered to give her any amount of deposit that she wanted to feel safe about me dumping pets on her. Any amount and I also told her to call my Veterinarian Dr, Charlotte Burns who has known me for years and knows that I rescue kitties, I do not dump them. Everyone at Mendocino Animal Hospital knows me and would have given her a thumps up recommendation about me. But Kelly Bosses would not make the call. Instead she refused to board my 3 kitties leaving me stranded in a medical emergency that required me to get to SF as soon as I could. I ended up calling Charlotte Burns, my vet. Though they do not do commercial boarding at MAH, she took my kitties in, thank goodness. Love Doc Burns, Love her. Huge thumbs down on Blue Ribbon Pets and owner Kelly Boesel.
It was a five-star experience at Blue Ribbon. They're very kind, quick to answer questions pertaining to the business. haircut Nails shampooing all the things that dogs get . In the a perfect timing Manor. I'm was very please . It is going to be my dog's second home. Plus they have a kennel for the times you go on vacation. A nice safe place for your dog and will not have to worry about a thing.very nice employees that show you they care. Thanks Blue Ribbon! 🐕
Affinity Pet Services have been very reliable & caring with our pets when we go on vacation. I love the updates and photos they are thoughtful enough to send so we feel less guilty about leaving home. We come home to a house of content dogs, cats & chickens that are calm and obviously not anxious about the changes. They are well taken care of & happy to get to stay in our home instead of kennels. I recommend Affinity often to friends, and am grateful to have them in our lives the last 5 years!
Our pup loves playgroup! She waits excitedly at the window on playgroup days for pickup, dances when she hears Charlotte pull up, and comes home tired and happy. We also have hired Affinity for pack walks, and to check on our pup in the middle of the day when we have had to work longer hours. Affinity has proven to be trustworthy, caring and very knowledgeable about dog care. We highly recommend!
Can’t give them 10 stars but they are top notch! Charlotte and her company are the best. Dogs always picked up promptly, exercised their little hearts out, returned clean and tired. I often am not home when she drops off, she is respectful, always house is locked back up. My dogs love seeing her cause Affinity equals fun!
Besides being incredibly professional. This is the highest recommendation for Affinity(and Charlotte) I can give. When we come home are cats don’t hide or ignore us(because they are mad)…they are happy to see us, relaxed and carry on as if we had never left. That is because of the great care & love they received from The Affinity team while we were away.
We've got 3 dogs and have been using Affinity for weekly visits and overnight stays when we are out of town for the last year and a half. They are reliable, trustworthy, and provide an abundance of love for our critters. They send us pictures while we're away so we know all is well. We couldn't be happier with the service they provide and highly recommend them.
Fabulous, pet lovers & care givers. They provide supportive care when I have a long stretch away from home. I highly recommend them.
If you neef care for your animals, maybe just a stop in to visit while away for an extended time. Awesome, super efficient booking system. Really nice, caring & diligent carers. Will use them again. Thank you.
I love our Affinity Auntie Gail. Incredibly attentive, and loves my two dogs.
Good people providing great services. I highly recommend!
Great service!
After boarding my little yorkie in kennels all around the area and always picking him up sick with kennel cough, or even a hurt leg, and taking weeks for him to unstress, I was very skeptical of everywhere. Just seemed no good solution for leaving him anywhere. I was referred to Christy, and was still skeptical until I met her and saw her place! She is so nice and her place is really clean and dog friendly! You can tell right away how great she is with dogs. She kept him for 10 days, and sent daily pictures and updates. I felt really good about where he was and how he was being treated. I picked him up and he was so healthy, happy and even bathed! So nice to be able to know I don't have to stress about going away anymore and what I will do with Max! Thank you so much Christy, you're a gem!
My two pups Bella and Bode just love Christina's pet care. They didn't want to leave when I came back to pick them up! I know they are in loving, caring hands when I drop off at Christina's. My highest recommendation !!!
Christina is fantastic! She took care of our large, energetic puppy, Charlie, for 8 days. This was my first time boarding a pet, so I had concerns. But Christina eased all of those right away. She was very quick to respond to my inquiry and asked all the right questions to learn about our puppy. While we were away, Christina sent pictures, videos and updates daily. She even made homemade food to add to Charlie's kibbles! Upon pick up, I could tell Charlie felt very comfortable with Christina and had had a great stay. She is the only boarder I will call next time we have a need.
This is Molly my puppy who spent 3 nights at Christina's pet sitting. Molly made new friends and enjoyed her time. Christina sent pictures every day of activities that Molly was involved in with other dogs and cats as the picture shows. I highly recommend Home Away From Home if you need a caring person to take care of your pet.
At first I was a bit apprehensive leaving my beloved dog with someone I did not know. However, upon meeting Christina and seeing the way she treats her own dogs and how clean her house is I felt very comfortable leaving him there for a few days. Christna is great and treated my dog extremely well. She sent pictures a few times every day and I could see that my dog was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Home away from home Christina pet sitting. Everything was great!
I highly recommend Home Away from Home, Christina's Pet Sitting and I would give her 10 stars if I could. Right away when I contacted Christina I could tell that she was very professional and cares a great deal about animals. Before my Mia came for the weekend we arranged for a meet and greet to make sure my dog would get along with her pets. Luckily, all went well. Mia had a great time at Christinas and she sent me daily pictures and updates which I truly appreciated. The name of her business accurately describes that it is a "home away from home" for your pet.
Our dog needed a sitter for one night at short notice. Christina was super flexible and helpful. It was the first time in our dog's life to spend a night without us. At 5 months old, he and Christina did a great job. The next day we picked him up safely. He was a little intimidated, but that was certainly due to the unfamiliar situation. Payment was made in advance. Everything went smoothly and in a friendly manner. If we need a dog sitter again, we turn to Christine.
Initially I was hesitant on the idea of boarding at a non traditional kennel facility, but boy was I wrong. My two fur children got the 5 star hotel resort and spa treatment. Christina is an absolute amazing sitter here in clearlake at Home away from home. Christina was extremely welcoming and showed me around her house and where the dogs would be staying. I was very pleased with how she was welcoming to my dogs who have never stayed in another persons home before. She sent updates throughout the stay, and plenty of pictures that made my work day go by quicker. She was extremely thorough and required all paperwork of current vaccines for both of my dogs which again, showed me that she was very careful and mindful of illness that may arise from not having vaccinated pets. When I came to pick them up, she even included a complimentary doggy dinner that she makes organically at home. I was so pleased with my dogs stay that we have decided to board with her weekly. Christina was an absolute delight and my pets had a great time! 5 stars!
Need someone to watch your animal while you are away? Want someone who will care for your dog just like you would? Want your dog to stay in a clean home with someone who loves animals? Christina is the person you need! Christina took excellent care of my dog while we were on a 3 week vacation. She loved him, walked him, made him homemade dog biscuits, and texted us daily with pics and told us how their day went. Don't take your dog to a kennel, take them to Christina and know that your loved one is safe and happy while you are away.
I am a travel, nurse and work long hours at the hospital. I’m usually gone for 13 hours at a time, and am always needing a place to take my puppy when I work. Christina’s house has truly become my dog”s home away from home! Driving to Christina‘s house on a work day is what my puppy’s, Juniper favorite thing! She jumps into the car and wiggles all the way there. Juniper runs straight from the car to the door and rushes through the door when it’s opened!. If she could turn around and say to me how much she loves it here I think she would. But how happy she looks says it all!!!!
We boarded my dog at Woodland Kennel over spring break. She was very well cared for. I would definitely recommend them for pet boarding.
Woodlands Kennel was recommended to me by a friend and I have nothing but good things to say about my experience. The owners are capable and compassionate. They listen carefully to directions and exude quiet leadership with my dog. My dog is a young, large, and high energy, and needs engaged care and limits. She loves the one-on-one attention she receives from Mark and Karen, and I have peace of mind knowing she is understood and treated with genuine care. Woodlands is clean, quiet, and feels more like a home atmosphere. When I think about some of the experiences I have had kenneling my dog in places where the noise was deafening, I can understand why transitions to and from the kennel have become so much easier! I'm so grateful to have found Woodlands.
Mark and Karen are absolutely the best! They are both very interactive with the dogs, walking playing and just them lots of love! Wouldn’t go any where else ❤️
Awesome place to bring your dog, the owners care so much and take good care of your pets!
Mark was super nice and professional, he accommodated our last minute needs and our fussy dogs!
Great vacation spot for dogs..well cared for in a great facility
My dogs ADORE Jessica and all the staff at House of Dogg. They jump out of the car and run to be with her. I know that they are in safe, loving hands whenever they are there, which sets my mind and heart at ease when I have to be away from my furbabies. She offers fun daycare and also overnight boarding (and even the option of homemade dog food when boarding!). It’s a treat… They come home happy and tired out from all the fun activities :) dogs have excellent instincts, and they trust Jessica, as do I!
Where to begin?! This place is doggone awesome, a dog paradise complete with pool, playground, safety & security and much more. The owner and staff however are the real stars of the show! My dog is a two year old Australian Cattle Dog and with a new baby at home he was very cautious of strangers. We had to go out of town and board him for 5 days total and HOD showed him so much patience and kindness that by day 2 he was finally settled down, even playing endless fetch. Jessica (owner) and Molly made sure he felt loved and knew we would be home. And when we finally DID come home, he had only benefited from the experience. He listened better to commands, could be counted on more not to zoom off if unleashed and maintained a healthy appetite. This could not have been achieved by a dog sitter. I cannot say enough about HOD!
House of Dogg, Inc. is a wonderful place to take your dog for the day or to board over night! We boarded our lab here for a week and we felt he was safe and well cared for. We received updates and pictures while we were away. The facility is clean and well designed. There are different areas for small and large dogs to play, sniff and explore. The dogs have access to enrichment activities and equipment! Oh, and I have to mention there is a “chuck-it” space for dogs like mine to run and fetch!! The owner, Jessica and her team have created a wonderful space for dogs! I highly recommend House of Dogg, Inc.! Take your dog there and check it out, they’ll love it!
We are so happy to have found House of Dog. Usually my doggo and I are inseparable and I never leave him w/ anyone. Jessica, on the other hand is such a dog whisperer. She made my doggo feel safe, comfortable and happy. I was confidant to leave him. Look at that face in the photo! My doggo was blissed out and 🥰 loving the pampering and attention at House of Dog.
I'm so impressed with what Jessica has created for our beloved dogs. My young golden retriever, Honey Bun, loves going there. I highly recommend House of Dogg!
This is one amazing place for any dog. Jessica and her team have created a playful, well planned, and above all, safe place for dogs of all sizes. The attention to detail is exhibited from romping/play areas to rest time areas on warmer days. Our seven-month-old girl comes home with a big grin on her face every day she is there. Jessica has a real eye for what’s on the minds of each of her dogs, and she will check in with owners on what she observes. We are so lucky to have House of Doggs in our community.
House of Dogg is a treasure. Our dog Ellie LOVES it there. She can barely contain her excitement when we drop her off. Jessica and her team are fantastic; they provide a loving, safe and fun environment.
House of dogg and the owner and her staff are awesome and I cannot recommend them enough. They are loving, caring, and know how to care of a variety of breeds, including my complicated husky/Gsd mix. They sent photos to ease my worries about leaving my girls, but honestly my dogs got a vacation too! Plenty of walks, rest, and happiness!
I can’t recommend this place enough - our pups have been all over the map with doggie day cares, home/dog sitting, and more - this is the place to be. Our lab got to enjoy a week long stay here, and he had an absolute blast! The owner was in contact throughout his stay keeping us posted on all, she went well above and beyond making sure he was well taken care of, and that we were enjoying our time away. We’re already planning our next visit!
I had to board my Bouvier de Flandres, on a emergency. While I was on my travels was able to arrange to have my dog overnight for 9 plus days at "House of Dogg" .. Well not only did the kind people at House of Dogg help me, they gave my dog the loving, care and kindness he so well disserves. This is now my go to place. I highly recommend them!
I have a lot of anxiety about leaving all my critters when I go out of town but I don't when I have Good Dogs to rely on. They are so thorough and so many times have gone above and beyond the call of duty. I can get updates from them to hear how it's going, which is very reassuring. They are responsible and trustworthy and I would highly recommend them to take care of any type of animal!
Good Dogs has been a life saver for drop in pet sitting. I have 2 dogs, and they are our babies, so I would not trust them to anyone. Scheduling services is easy, the team are great, communication is excellent, and I have always felt my pups were in good hands.
Was more than happy with Good Dogs! Dog Inky really liked being taken for walks by Brigid. Arrived on time every day - even brought the mail in!
My pups love Bridget and get so excited when her car pulls in the driveway. Highly recommend her.
I keep Brigid and Good Dogs Pet Sitting on speed-dial. Wouldn't let anyone else care for my greyhound.
Very happy with Brigid and team. Took care of our dog, Indi, and let us vacation with peace of mind.
Greatest pet sitters ever!
Thank you Orion! We enjoy caring for Hannah.
