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!
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Ally was great! We got to meet for a few minutes before I headed out and I felt super reassured that both Goose and my home were in good hands. My cat is picky when it comes to strangers, but he was comfy in Ally’s lap right away the first night! She communicated well and sent cute pictures while I was away. My home was clean and Goose was happy when o got back. I highly recommend Ally as a sitter and she’s welcomed back anytime!
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!
Great pet sitter - took perfect care of our cat and our home. They were super communicate leading up to and during the sit and left our apartment in great shape. I'd absolutely recommend them to any future sitters!
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
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, $18/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!
The Country Inn is an outstanding full-service dog and cat facility. Tony, the owner, truly cares about his clients. Their groomer is an expert. Tony can also provide great training and handling tips. I’ll only board my dogs and cat at the Country Inn Pet Resort. Call them today!
Tony is great. I had a few personal problems and he was very kind and patient. The resort feels warm and very welcoming. Perfect location in the country, away from noise and clutter.
The owner, Tony and his staff are amazing. My dogs were boarded there and one came down with sone concerning symptoms. Tony acted quickly and reached out to us while we were in Hawaii and took her to the Emergency Vet Hospital. Due to his concern and quick action our dog made it through the necessary procedure. The doctors said that Tony stayed with her till they reached us and called everyday to see how she was. We cannot express how grateful we are to Tony and his staff. My dogs also love to go out there just for daycare. They come home happy and tired.
My dog absolutely loves going to doggy daycare here. She gets so excited when I drop her off. They remember her and are always friendly. She also gets bathed here, it's very affordable and they do a really great job! So glad to have them in McCleary!
I have had nothing but positive experiences taking my dog to Country Inn for both short and long stays. The staff are friendly and the owner is very knowledgeable and makes sure your pets needs are more than met. I feel very comfortable leaving my pup at Country Inn Pet Resort and Spa. I cannot recommend them enough.
Whoa, super impressed. We need to kennel our 4mo old (dog)for one day and decided to test the waters with a half day stay. Tony was great, showed us around, they have lots of outdoor space for the pups, kennels looked clean, they also have on site groomer which is awesome. Was a muddy day, was expecting a muddy sheepdog, but they washed her down before I picked her up. Also, prices are AMAZING!! Very happy wallet.
Many of my cats have been boarded here when needed for the past 17 years. Very friendly staff. Very accommodating. ❤️
Very friendly staff! They worked with me in an unforeseen situation and everything worked ou perfectly. I will definitely bring my Penny back out.
The staff here is very helpful and keeps us informed of any issues related to our dog's behavior or health. Much to our delight, they text videos of the dogs playing and interacting which provides a great deal of comfort knowing they're having fun. Highly recommend.
Seems like a very comfortable spot for both humans and their companions. On a recommendation, we enjoyed a simple and very quick visit to Country Inn, having our Callie cat's claws trimmed. We're assuming (sorry, we didn't ask....) the owner took care of Callie and she was so very welcoming, gentle and thankfully super efficient with the claw thing. Cats.....she knew exactly how to handle the process, no drama and we're so very thankful for this. The staff that we did encounter were equally welcoming and helpful. By the looks of the sounds of the operation (pups waiting to be picked up and dogs barking during their grooming, etc.), we have a feeling it can be a busy place (we were invited to have Callie's claws trimmed at noon, during their lunch and the Spa "closed," to avoid dogs coming and going, easing the anxiety level in Callie. What other pet spa would go this extra mile?)! Thank you Country Inn Pet Resort and Spa!
Jessica has been so wonderful! Very thoughtful about everything and our puppy has a great time.
This place is so great and the owners are always enthusiastic when our dog is arriving and leading up to his stay. We’ve been boarding him here since 2019 and have never once had a negative experience. And the baths and nail trims are so good, he always comes back looking way better than at drop off. These people are so trustworthy. Sometimes my husband and I joke that we should just take him there for a break from our toddler.
My dog spent a week here and had a great time! The kennel owners sent us regular updates about her antics, which were comforting to receive. They clearly love dogs, and are so competent and trustworthy. Prices were very reasonable too. Update: My dog really enjoyed her second stay at Freedom Acres' new location! She clearly had a blast! They took such great care of her!
My wife and I can't say enough about Jessica's care of our dogs. We have used Jessica for years now. Her combination of being a medic in the Armed Forces and being a veterinary assistant for many years make her an unflappable caregiver for your dog. As a veterinarian myself, it is wonderful to have someone watching our dogs who understands veterinary issues and is willing to take on a challenge. On our last visit, we had both our old yellow lab who was starting to fail, and our young lab who was recovering from an awful injury and still needed her wound dressings changed. I don't think any other facility would have taken our dogs, and I don't think we would have trusted anyone else to take care of them besides Jessica. She was stellar. As usual. Besides being incredibly capable,, she loves the dogs. And they love her. Our dogs have always excited when we arrive there and they see Jessica. I could go on but I better stop! We feel so lucky to have her for our pets.
We highly recommend Freedom Acres! Jessica is professional, kind and trustworthy. I am calling her a "dog whisperer" as she very quickly assesses and understand dogs personalities and cares for them accordingly. We entrusted her during our oversea trip with our Bichon frise, our Border Collie and our Chi mix. We could not be happier as were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our Fur kids were well cared for in beautiful environment!
We highly recommend Jessica and Freedom Acres! We brought our girls in for a meet and greet two years ago. Jessica could tell their needs immediately and even helped us understand our reactive girl more. Every time we took our girls in we saw improvements in both of them. We've been boarding with Freedom Acres since. Before Jessica, we were not comfortable boarding the more reactive of our two. Now we can. Jessica is responsive. The girls always come back looking happy and healthy. Bottom line: will continue to utilize services and would highly recommend to others.
Jessica took care of my 2 dogs while we were away for the weekend. She is a very kind person and will do anything at your request without extra charges. The facility is small so it is so much less stressful then your ordinary boarding facility. However, the kennels the dogs are housed in are very spacious and are indoor/outdoor so my dogs can choose where they want to be. Jessica really takes the time to give each dog whatever they need which includes play time in a large field! She also will give medications if needed. Her property is beautiful and I can't imagine what dog wouldn't want to be there. She definitely has the knowledge and background with animals which is a bonus! I would recommend this facility without hesitation!
Great place to board your dog. Jessica takes great care of the dogs, and gives them all individualized care. My dog is very shy around other dogs, and Jessica not only welcomed her in, she took my dog for personal walks around the numerous (and gorgeous) trails, instead of romping with the other dogs in the doggie play area. The next time my dog boarded, there was another dog that Jessica said she'd carefully try them together. Jessica introduced them slowly (the two dogs had a kennel fence between them for several hours), and with Jessica's gentleness and patience, by the end of the stay the two dogs were playing together. My dog has NEVER not run away from other dogs, and to see her play with another dog was wonderful! It's also really nice to know that Jessica has worked as a veterinary assistant, so she's adept at giving medications. The kennel is small, so not only do the dogs get individualized attention, but you also don't need ear protectors whenever you walk into the kennel. AND the price is very reasonable -- much less pricey than many kennels in the Olympia area. I'm so glad Freedom Acres opened!
We've boarded our pup here a few times and absolutely love this facility! The owners are friendly and kind. They send me photos of my dog so I know how happy he is, he comes home exhausted from playing with the other dogs and running around so much. Completely trust them with the love of my life and am so grateful to have found such a wonderful facility.
Long overdue post, Coming from a background in the veterinary field I am VERY picky about my pets and their care, I am a helicopter pet mom and and treat my pets like my children. I have boarded my dogs at 3 other kennels before finding her location and I never worry when I go out of town anymore with my babies here! Honestly my dog Groot gets excited when he stays here. She is amazing at sending text updates but after the first time of Groot staying here I don't even need to update because I know he is just fine! Also her kennel set ups are awesome! She has them indoor/outdoor super comfortable for your pets !
I moved from out of state and was really hoping to find a great place to bring my dog for boarding and daycare that he would fit into. He LOVES it at Carolyn’s. With a not super social but really high energy dog, Carolyn’s is the perfect place for him and I always trust he will be taken care of and come home calm and tired. What you get for the price is definitely worth it. They have plenty of staff and care for all the pups and make sure they all are grouped together so they get along. Everyone is really nice and you can tell they really care. They post updates during the day which is a cute way to check in on your pup. Everything from our first meet and greet day to extended boarding, I know my dog will be taken care of and enjoy his time. Highly recommend this place.
We found Carolyn’s K9 Retreat earlier this summer when looking for a doggy daycare and boarding for our sweet six month old Aussiedoodle, Gus. They were very responsive to set up a plan to help Gus get accommodated so we could board him for our vacation in a month. All the staff members are so kind and loving to all the pups! Our Gus had some separation anxiety issues during his first doggy daycare stays and his first overnight stay. The staff was very patience with Gus and able to help him calm down and become habituated to the new environment! Gus was able to have a wonderful stay at Carolyn’s while we were able to enjoy a road trip through Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. I would totally recommend Carolyn’s K9 Retreat for doggy daycare and boarding, especially for dogs who are not fully kennel trained!
BEST DOGGY DAYCARE IN TOWN! The space is great and the staff is super friendly. My pup gets very excited every time we drop him off, and fulfilled and exhausted by the time we get home. This truly is an outstanding place for your dog(s) to socialize and get their needed exercise.
This is like Disneyland for dogs! My dog loves this place and feels right at home here! She gets super excited when we arrive. The staff are phenomenal and very attentive. My dog is a smaller dog too and gets shy but the staff has helped her feel comfortable and welcome. She has made great doggy friends and loves staying here for the day or overnight. Your pet is in good hands when going to the Carolyn’s K9 retreat!
Carolyn’s is our pup, Dory’s favorite place!!! She gets to play all day with her friends and everyone is incredible with the dogs!! Such a clean environment as well. Their spaw treatments always leave her smelling and looking her best! We cannot recommend them enough. We are so appreciative of Carolyn’s K9 Retreat!! 🩷 …
I LOVE this place. My pup is 1 month into classes & he LOVES it! I can hardly home him back when we arrive. When I pick him up, he's tuckered out from playing & learning. Bringing him here has helped my pup in solicitation & gives him lots of time to play with other dogs. Best part is seeing the daily pics posted on FB throughout the day while my pup is there. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
We are so happy we’ve chosen Carolyn’s K9 Retreat as our local daycare/boarding spot. We appreciate that they require a meet & greet and a full day of daycare prior to boarding to ensure it’s the right fit for everyone. We also love that they’re a no-kennel facility so our boy can lounge on a couch as he would at home. We trust their staff & know Wally is in caring, capable hands when he’s under their care!
My dog isn’t the easiest- Lola jumps all the fences, has separation anxiety and is on medication. I’ve never been able to leave her anywhere! Until Carolyn and her team!!!! Carolyn and her husband own this amazing sanctuary for our dogs! All of the employees are exceptionally caring and attentive. I now feel so comforted that we have found a place to care for our baby!!! They keep me updated as to how she is doing when I am out of town and my heart is happy knowing she is happy there.
Carolyn’s K9 Retreat is doggy Disneyland for our dog! He gets so excited when we pull into their parking lot and doesn’t want to leave when we pick him up! They send pictures and texts and treat him like family! I cannot recommend this place more! Simply one of a kind and THE BEST! Gunner will be going here forever! All their staff treat him like their own. Love this place!!
Be sure you leave your pup(s) smiling instead of sticking their tongue out at you! Reach out to Carolyn’s K9 retreat for all the daycare, grooming, and boarding needs of your dog. We sure are glad we have!
Years ago, I was a veterinarian in the Grays Harbor area. I used to bring Ace, my lab mix, to Three Sisters often. Despite his severe separation anxiety, he absolutely loved coming here and I was very pleased with the facility, price, and kindness of Gina and Rachel. They were very accommodating to our busy schedule. Ace crossed the rainbow bridge a few years back, but I will forever be thankful for services Three Sisters provided when we called Grays Harbor County, Washington our home.
It's always a great experience, with Three Sisters. We have taken our dogs to them for many years. Great people and good facilities and our dogs have always loved the owners. I highly recommend Three Sisters
We have taken our 3 girls here a couple of times. I feel happy and confident that they are having a blast and are well taken care of. They know the drill and hop right out of the car when we arrive! Love taking them here!
They are just the absolute best. Our dog Skye has been coming here for years and she loves going there so much. It’s the only place our dog will hop out of the car to go into. The people running it are great to work with as well.
I can not begin to tell you how much we love Three Sister's Boarding ♥️. Our Crazy Chocolate Lab, Daisy loves it. We took her the first time at 11 months old. We had paid for training at a facility in Tumwater and she truly learned nothing. After going to Three Sister's she is a different behaved dog. I know they do NOT provide training, but I think she learns from the other dogs. We have been taking her since 2021 and she loves it. We ask her, " Do you want to go to the Ranch " and she perks up and is ready to go. We would never leave her in anyone's care. We highly recommend Three Sister's for you Boarding needs Debbie
The best. They take very good care of your pets and the cleanliness is superb. They walk the dogs and play with them. They aren’t stuck in kennels all day. I would recommend them to a thousand people hands down. Great place.
My first experience with a kennel and it was excellent. I met one of the owners and got a completely warm, caring and genuine vibe from her. They went above & beyond to care for my buddy.
We couldn’t be any happier with three sisters this is our dogs second stay . They have a large play / exercise area that is so clean and well kept. We took a 10 day trip and it was nice knowing that our dogs were being well taken care of. Our female golden seemed to not eat the first time we gave them some food additive to add to their food. The kind lady at three sisters sent my wife a video of her eating, my wife was able relax knowing she was eating. It’s very comforting knowing your dogs are getting loving attention while you are traveling. Thank you Three Sisters
I’m new to the area and am thrilled to have found a boarding facility I can trust. Three Sisters offers group playtime several times a day, so my boy can get the exercise and socialization he needs. They have a great setup and are very reasonably priced. They have been welcoming, flexible and communicative with me.
3 Sisters is the very best boarding facility we've used in 50 years of dog ownership. We drive from Olympia to take our beagles there. The multiple playtimes that the dogs get daily tire them out. They are as excited to go there as they are when we arrive to take them home. We are so lucky to have them care for our beagles.
Amy and Rae took care of my kitty, Bella, while I was at a knitting retreat this weekend. I felt so confident that they would make sure that she was fed, watered, litter box cleaned and she was happy! They were able to give Bella her asthma inhaler which was so comforting to me! I will always use Oh My Dog Sitters for my pet's care in my absence.
Amy and her team are *great* and the Client Portal system is a huge time-saver. All of the sitters are great and the daily visit check-in, with an activity report and photos, is so reassuring. I would highly recommend Oh My Dog to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Amy and her crew were the best!!! Came and met my animals before and then got on the floor with them and played. They made me feel so comfortable to leave all 4 animals in their care. They came 3 times a day and walked the dogs and loved on them every visit. Each visit they contacted me to say they were there, sent pics and then gave details of their visit. They let me know when they left and how the dogs went potty and what treats or food they gave them. Highly recommend Oh My Dog (sitters) I look forward to having them in the future
Can't gush over Amy and her crew enough. The care they take and attention to safety detail is top notch. And our dogs go bonkers when they see Amy or Brenda out and about, so I know they are given the best times on their walks and visits! We hope to recommend Oh My Sitters to many more doggie parent friends -- we wish we'd found them sooner.
With Amy and crew I know our kitty is well cared for while we are gone! I love the daily reports letting us know how things are going. They even take the time to ensure our hummingbird feeders are full. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could!
Amy and her team are the best pet sitters we have ever worked with. We never have to worry about our pups while out of town, and get photos and written updates with each visit through the app they use (also super convenient.) They are understanding and accommodating of our two rescue dog's needs and quirks, and truly go above and beyond to make sure our dogs are happy while we are gone. I cannot recommend Oh My Dog enough!
We always use OMD to care for our precious pets while away. The team is very professional, caring, and attentive to details. I recommend them highly for both cats and dogs. We always get fabulous notes and photos while we’re away which gives us peace of mind on our trip, and our pets are very well taken care of, including meds as needed and special notes.
Amy has watched our cats twice now and she is awesome! She sends daily updates and pictures. She goes above and beyond for our pets and house and it really helps remove any anxiety we have with leaving our pets at home while we are gone.
Amy from Oh My Dog! (Sitters) made friends with our shy cat in record time. She is personable, professional, and an experienced pet-sitter. I appreciate the peace of mind that comes with someone checking in when we can't be there. Highly recommend -- your pets will be in good hands!
Oh My Dog! took excellent care of my diabetic cat which was such a great relief. Their attention to detail and daily pet updates were awesome. I highly recommend Oh My Dog! and will definitely use their services again.
Karen is seriously a master of her craft. When we first met her, we could tell right away that she's highly personable and extremely competent when it comes to dog-care. We enlisted her help several times throughout the years and every time our dog, Jake, was beyond excited to see her. She's professional, flexible, funny, and great at caring for our fur baby.
I hired Karen for daily weekday walks for 6 weeks. She arrives timely, has strong communication skills and my dog loves her! I was looking for service with someone experienced, trustworthy, reliable, licensed, and insured and Karen met all this criteria and more. Look no further for your pet care!
Karen is a gem. Reliable, trustworthy, prompt and very considerate. We've used her services for almost 2 years now, through the pandemic. She has been wonderful. Our German shepherd loves her and we do too. You could not find a better person to take care of your pet. 10 Stars from us.
You will not be disappointed. Karen has been caring for my pups on and off for nearly a decade. The last six months of his life my 100lb boxer stopped using his rear end. Karen came several days a week, put him in his wheelchair, cleaned up after him (no easy task), but most importantly, genuinely cared enough to help me track his needs. She took one of the best pictures I have of my old man. I took a few years to get my next dog, which Karen has now walked several days a week for four years. My dog LOVES her walks. If I happen to be there when Karen comes my dog does not even acknowledge my presence. Karen is communicative, reliable, flexible, and trustworthy. I have never once worried about my pets in her care. When my dog allows me to chat with her, I genuinely enjoy her company.
Karen is reliable and goes the extra mile. We have used her service for our kitty for several years. Karen is also a fun person to chat with and we know our furry family member is in good hands!
Karen's Walkies! service is outstanding. She's reliable, professional, friendly, smart, and a pleasure to know. She's been extremely responsive and flexible when our travel plans have changed on very short notice. She's great with checking the house while we're gone and she's very easy to work with. She's well worth the cost for the piece of mind alone. I highly recommend Karen and her Walkies! service.
I'm so glad I found Oly Walkies! My family took a much-needed trip to the coast, but needed to find a reliable and trustworthy person to tend to our flock of chickens. From the time I first contacted Karen to returning our housekey, she was responsive and thorough. She even hauled in two giant boxes I hadn't been expecting until we returned. I happily and enthusiastically recommend Karen for your petsitting needs and I will definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Karen!
Over a period of several years I used Walkies and the experience was very positive. Even when i had a crazy, out-of-control hunting dog, she was well taken care of by Karen and loved seeing her pull up with her own dog. The two became besties. Karen has an innate sense of what works and doesn't work and always has the best interest of your furbaby at heart. Call her.
Walkies is the best. Karen's been covering our cats for trips and vacations for over five years and just having her on speed dial makes us feel like more responsible pet owners. She's a fount of wisdom as well. Full marks.
Walkies! took incredible care of our animals while we were away. She also gave us valuable advice on training ideas to help manage some poor behaviors in our adopted adult Shepherd. She is clearly an expert in her field and I would recommend her services to anyone. She is trustworthy, dependable, knowledgeable and a real animal lover!
Our first experience with Nelly's Ark was fabulous. I have two, very bonded lab/gsp pups, littermates 9 years old. Much to my surprise they did very well and we're very happy. I was also thrilled with the results. Of course they did not need clipping but they needed good baths to get a lot of hair out and they needed a good nail clipping as well. This is not something that they do willingly at home. One person they're even exclaimed how happy my boy was when she met him in the bath! I would have bet a lot of money that he would have had his tail between his legs and been shaking during his bath but no, he was greeting everybody with a smile and a tail wag. How could I give this place anything less than five stars!!
Going with a good middle ground 3 star review as I haven't had my pet actually stay here but I took a tour that left a bad taste in my mouth. There is only someone there about 3 times a day according to our tour guide plus kennels are wire walls, this makes me incredibly anxious for reactive or aggressive dogs who they say they will take anyways. No walks are given, just a short yard time. The facility seems run down and has an overpowering chemical smell. Just be cautious please. I went in to take a look before I scheduled to have my dogs there and this place only set me on edge, there's no way I'd feel comfortable leaving them there.
Our dog Honey Bear is a Chihuahua that hates people and will not trust anyone except her own pack, her family of humans. We worry about leaving her anywhere but this time we had no choice. She has a hard character as she will trust no one, but thankfully she was warm and safe and cared for for 5 days and 4 nights last Thanksgiving weekend. She was happy to see us and recovered quickly from her melancholy of missing us. We were thankful she was well cared for in spite of her being a little difficult with strangers as she always is. I've had other places turn us down because they couldn't handle her, but at Nelly's Ark they took good care of her and we are very thankful.
Adora Dee has been going to Nelly's for approximately 6 years and she loves her groomer Kelly, if she is happy I am too. Thank you Nelly's Ark 🙂🥰 …
Our dogs LOVE coming here! The staff is amazing, communicative, and truly love the pets that stay here. ❤️
Our family had a Great Wolf lodge trip planned. We decided to board our 20-month-old, intact male GSD. My wife searched kennels in the surrounding area. Nelly's Ark came up as the best. There is a reason. First off, the facility is clean. You can tell they take pride in its appearance. Second, the staff is top-notch. They were professional, friendly, and respectful. The extra special care they provided for my boy Dutch, was immensely appreciated. I would recommend them to anyone looking to board their pup. Thanks Nelly's. 10/10
I can't say enough good things about Nelly's! They truly care about our dogs and go the extra mile to be sure they're comfortable - whether that's during their grooming session or a few day boarding stay. I feel good dropping my dogs off here, I know they're meticulously cared for. Highly, highly recommend this wonderful business.
My dog went in looking like a used mop! She has long hair and was a mess! She came out looking like a young puppy! Totally beautiful! The staff were kind and friendly.
Have taken our dog Lady there for boarding twice and will again for future trips. She's been well cared for while we were gone for a week both times. Staff is friendly and loving, you can tell they care. Boarding fees are reasonable as well.
Our dog is very sensitive to his personal space and can’t stay at other boarding services. We drove him down 1.5 hours from Seattle for 2 weeks and the staff took great care of him with zero issues- he came back a happy dog! It is well worth the drive and we are very grateful for how professional Nelly’s Ark is !
We left for a week out of state and needed help with short notice. Maria's schedule was pretty full, but she was able to help us out. She strives to help if she can. We have dogs, cats, fish and birds that were cared for the entire time we were gone. We received a consultation where we walked through all the specifics prior to leaving. We met our sitters in advance. They interacted with the pets for a while before we left, so we could introduce everyone. We do have some pets with anxiety, so this was important to us. We had our first vacation with real peace of mind because of Happy at Home Pet Sitting and their outstanding services. We spent years finding the right way to be able to leave town, not worry and have our pets routines uninterrupted as much as possible. This will be our long term first choice whenever we leave for vacations, or on business. The prices are more than fair. Our pets were unfazed by our leaving because they had the necessary support while we were gone. We would recommend Maria and Happy at Home Pet Sitting for anyone that would like peace of mind, quality care for your pets at an affordable price. Short or long stay, use Maria & her team for your pets while you're away!
Maria has been absolutely wonderful with our cats and our dog Arrow! We feel so lucky to have found her, its comforting knowing our pets are safe and happy when she is there. Maria has done feedings and medications with playtime for us a few times and visits always come with an update and cute pictures!
I recently used Happy at Home Pet Sitting Service to care for my 10 year-old cat, Zoey. Zoey is not terribly used to being left alone (thanks, Covid!), so, I was somewhat apprehensive about leaving her without me for 10 days while on a trip. Maria stopped by before my trip and got to know Zoey and me, and provided assurances that my furry friend would be very well cared for. Maria explained everything about her services, provided references and brochures, and said that in my case, her company had a local sitter who would care for Zoey while I was away (the local person also stopped by before my trip to meet Zoey and me). While I was on the trip, I received a daily text update and periodic photos of Zoey. Maria had her staff follow all of my instructions and I could tell that Zoey had been well cared for while I was gone. Maria's prices are very reasonable and the fact that she has been in business for so long says a lot about the integrity of her service. She obviously takes pet sitting very seriously and provided the highest level of care for my Zoey. I could not be more satisfied. When I called my local vet to inform them that Maria and her team would be watching Zoey (in case a medical emergency), the vet said they are familiar with Maria's service and spoke highly of her. I think Maria has a lot of clients and is busy...but she made time for me and I will be using her service when I travel again in the near future. David, Ocean Shores.
Love love love! First impression...I contacted Maria and she quickly responded. This has continued throughout our relationship with her. When it comes to our furbabies, we know how important timely replies are! After that, she met us to go over our expected services and meet our sitter. After the service... We found nice notes journaling our dog's disposition and activities when the sitter visited. I 100% completely trust and recommend this company! Maria has been wonderful about following up to be sure we were happy afterward. I really can't say enough good about them. One last thing...icing on the cake...reasonably priced! Just an update... We have used Happy at Home 3 times now. Our oldest dog, Abe, used to get very stressed when we got the suitcases out. Now that he knows Happy at Home ladies will be coming by, he could care less if we leave!
I tried contacting these people multiple time, but each time it just rang and rang till I hit the answering machine. I left a voicemail and got no returning call. Basically what's the point of having a business if you can't even answer a phone.... thanks to these people I wasn't able to find a place for my dog when a emergency popped up and I had to put my dog in the pound. Please take down your website if you don't answer. Or at least put business hours down. A very poorly ran business
Maria and her team are excellent. Highly recommend!
They take great care of our dogs and kitty, and the daily dog club visit is awesome, and well worth peace of mind! Happy dogs!☺
Lovely people who look after our wee hairy beasties very well.
Fantadtic service! They do a great job with our furbabies
Maria and crew go above and beyond!
