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!
Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
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.
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
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.
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
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 $25 per visit, 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!
My two girls are walked by one of their staff here in South Delta. She is amazing. Our two girls had a compromised life when I had my second baby. This service picks up where I am unable to provide. It means the world to the dogs and has greatly enhanced their life. The company provides photos and videos of the walks, and all comments and questions are addressed professionally. Highly recommend.
The team at Delta Pet care have been amazing! We are so happy we found them! Our dog has had a lot of fun running in the fields and interacting with the other dogs.(He told me this is his favourite thing). They’re are really caring and thorough with texts and videos every day! 5 stars.
I have a cat and had Delta Pet Care look after her for four days. They accommodated me on short notice and were thorough and prompt in all their dealings. Phoenix was great with my cat. Phoenix and Linzie went above and beyond when there was a problem with the door lock and a new deadbolt was installed by my landlord. She was able to pick up the new key and carry on with caring for my kitty. Thank you Delta Pet Care I will definitely be using you in the future!!!
Linzie and her team have been walking Timber for 6 months now, and they have been amazing. Super flexible with our ever changing schedules and Timber loves his walk days! If you are looking for a dog walker in Twas, I would highly recommend.
Our dog goes on pack walks with Delta Pet Care weekly. He's not easy but Linzie has taken him on and gives us lots of updates and a clear picture of how he is doing each week. I don't have to worry about how he is doing because there is clear communication. They are also really reliable which I have found is hard to come by in the pet care industry. If you are looking for a provider of pack walks or dog care I'd recommend them.
Thank you to Delta Pet Care for the amazing care and accommodating our sometimes changing schedule🙏 Benji is a happy boy 🐶 and waiting patiently for his human to come home. This is favourite chilling after walking adventure with Linzie and Maryah 😍 …
I used Delta Pet Care for dog/cat sitting and I had a wonderful experience .. First time it was a very last minute trip and Linzie was very responsive and helpful.. I then send my high energy dog for group dog walking and Linzie was always on time and taking care my dog has her own 🫶🏼!! I just reached to Delta Pet Care for pet sitting my dogs and cats during the holiday season and they respond me right away giving me the peace of mind to book my trip .. I just love how they make my dogs happy 😊!! Thank you !!!
Linzie and her team are great, it is so helpful to have them pick up our two dogs and bring them back tuckered out! They always love going on their big pup walks, and we always appreciate the video updates of our two pups having a blast! Would definitely recommend to check out Delta Pet Care!
I cannot say enough about how great Delta Pet Care is! They are great with communication and organizing everything with pickup and drop off. They send photos or short videos while the dogs are out with them which I love! Our dog Oakley loves his pack walks with Delta Pet Care - he comes home tired and happy each time!
We had Delta Pet Care take good care of our 3 fur babies while on our Hawaiian vacation. They were so professional and very kind to our dogs. Highly recommend them and will use their services again
Kim creates a loving, welcoming environment for her dog visitors. Our dog Odie is always happy and comfortable when coming here. He especially the morning trail walks! I love being able to step away knowing he is in good hands. 10/10 would recommend of you're looking for an excellent dog sitter.
Kim’s is the ultimate “dog spa”. My dog, Grover, loves going to Kim’s. There are always friendly dogs ready to play. Kim has a large fenced yard. There are daily “pack” walks on trails with the good smells of the outdoors & lots of dogs with whom to romp. On weekends, it’s beach day! Running through the ocean, chasing sticks & enjoying a dip. Kim treats Grover like a member of her family with lots of attention & affection while still being mindful of dietary & behavioural needs & preferences. I especially appreciate the pictures while travelling- proof that Grover is having a blast. And Kim has been wonderful about travel times & pick-up & drop-off times. Whether for a day or a week, I know my dog is having a great time with great care. (This is Grover at Kim’s, all tuckered out, enjoying a good rest after an active day at the beach with Kim & pals)
Since moving to Campbell River 1.5 years ago, Kim has been my life saver. She has provided a very safe environment for my Lab Retriever and has been reliable , honest, and very caring. Kim has also been very flexible with my always changing scheduling and has even taken my dog on multi day overnight sleepovers. I especially appreciate her off leash walks in the forrest and on Saratoga beach. I highly recommend her services.
Kim take’s such wonderful care of our Husky/Shep, Kai. He gets so excited whenever we arrive at their house & he certainly feels at home with them. Kai enjoys the plenty of exercise & puppy play he gets while with Kim & Mike. We really appreciate the picture updates we get from Kim while we are away - we are at ease knowing Kai is in such great hands!
Kim was immediately adopted by my two dogs who had no difficulty joining her and other dogs for their one hour walk in the forest. Always friendly and dependable. I found kim professional and warm.
Kim is absolutely amazing. I cannot thank her enough for the love and care she continues to show my pup. Remi is a high energy, anxious dog, and I have always struggled to find dog care for him because of this. After meeting Kim, she very quickly became the only person I trust for the job. Her patience, and calm demeanour is exactly what he needs and he always comes home tired and happy from their adventures!!
Kim is fantastic! She is very welcoming at drop offs, and our dog is always happy to see her! While away, we love receiving her little messages with photo/video updates on what our dog has been up to on their daily outings. I would definitely recommend Kim, to rest assured that your fur baby is good hands!
Have never had my dog stay at such a lovely place. Kim is so kind and easy to deal with. I wouldn't trust my dog with anyone else.
Kim is by far the most amazing dog sitter out there….. my 8 yr old Lab/Border Collie, Piper has terrible separation anxiety but from the moment she met Kim, her anxiety subsided, so much so it’s hard to get her to leave there. Kim has always kept me informed, sent awesome pics and videos, saved me in many extreme short notice instances, I love my dog sitter and so does Piper ❤️🐾
Excellent service. It is always reassuring to know that whenever we are away, our dog, Buddy, will be happy and very well looked after.
Lori has been a true godsend for us. A compassionate, caring, person, our pets love her. We had her house sit our troop when we had to be out of town. We were totally comfortable with leaving them and our house in her care. She is a dependable honest person, who kept us up to date with daily communication. We appreciate the gentle approach she has with animals. We can highly recommend Lori and her services. Thoroughly Professional in all our interactions. And she did a great grooming job on our pup too!
If you would like your pet treated with the utmost care please choose Lori. We have been using Lori’s services for at least four years now. She does an excellent job and is extremely reliable. She does not quit until she gets it right! Our Dog loves seeing Lori and our only regret is that she has moved over to the island and we can no longer use her services. I highly recommend her you will not be sorry! :-)
Lori is my first choice when I need a dog sitter or groomer. She recently stayed at my house while we were away for 3 weeks with my 2 dogs and 2 cats. I appreciated the regular updates she sent us and I knew that the pets were safe and happy with her. She is capable and trustworthy. A real gem! I recommend her highly!
Lori is great with animals, super reliable, and very trustworthy. I feel good when I go to work knowing she will be coming to visit my pup :)
Our poodle has stayed there four times and we are well satisfied with the are and facilities. We have full confidence in Jane's management.
My dog is five years old and had never been boarded. She generally stays with family. She did not love being boarded, but she was safe and well taken care of. There is ample exercise time and doggie playtime is supervised. She was just getting used to it and making friends when we picked her up. We will slowly get her used to it.
Jane is wonderful, generous, kind woman who goes out of her way for her furry clients as well as their pet parents! We will be return customers.
Jane has been our go-to for pet care for years and through 2 dogs. She's experienced, caring, and both of our our dogs have loved her. We make the drive from the Kitsap Peninsula. Her care for our pup is that good!
I got to drop my friend's precious puppy (ok he's a dog) here while she was in the hospital and Jane was so nice and helpful with the care of my friend's dog that it relieved a lot of stress on my friend! When I picked the dog back up he was happy and healthy and well taken care of.
Jane has been taking care of our labs when we travel for the last 15 years. She is wonderful and our dogs have always loved visiting her.
We came from Tacoma and looked up on Google. Called and talked to Jane and felt very comfortable with her. Left Jenny for daycare the next day.. ...she was just fine with her stay. We will go back when we need doggie daycare.
Cozy Care has been a great choice for boarding our Yorkie-Poo, Lucy. She gets personal attention & care, exercise and comfortable residence. We love knowing she has a good place when we have to board her.
Jane provides a safe environment for my dog. I always know he is receiving wonderful care.
Very good experience for us and our furry babies. Staff was very kind and helpful, the pups were very well cared for. Highly recommend!
These guys are the best and I'm picky who I entrust my dogs with. They treat them like family and are very thoughtful
We have hired Totally Tails Pet Care Services to take care of our two indoor cats many times over the past year, and we couldn't be more pleased. We receive daily email photo updates along with thorough, detailed reports while we are gone. We know they get plenty of attention and affection because our cats are always cheerful and calm when we get home with no signs of separation anxiety. Thank you Michele for your great service!
Totally Tails Pet Care Services has provided excellent, caring and reliable dog walking/pet care five days a week for the last year for our two Golden Retrievers (our dogs are now one year old and nine years old). Our family is so impressed with the level of service and professionalism provided by Totally Tails Pet Care! I highly recommend them! The daily pictures of our pets, which they email us, are just the best. It is so reassuring to know that our furry family members are well cared for while we are at work.
I hired Totally Tails to watch after my 2 dogs while I was on vacation in Hawaii. I knew I didn’t want to kennel them, so I was excited about someone coming to my home to feed, exercise, and care for my pups. Not only do they do a fantastic job of exercising the dogs they sent DAILY photos and follow-ups of their health and progress. These reports made me feel very comfortable with Totally Tails. They also rotated indoor lighting so as to give the impression that someone is always home. Superb service! Beats kenneling when your pups are in their home environment. I will contract with them again!
When it comes to Totally Tails, I have nothing but positive things to say. We trust the entire team completely and know that our dogs are in great hands when we're away. Even if our regular sitter isn't available, there is always someone on standby to ensure our pups receive all the love and attention they need. Ramona runs her business with precision and ease, making scheduling and communication a breeze. We feel lucky to have Totally Tails in our dogs' lives and highly recommend them to anyone in need of pet care services.
This was the best pet care service we have ever experienced. An excellent value. The daily 30-minute visit was packed with focused attention to our cat's specific needs: food, medication, daily litter box cleaning, brushing, play time with treats, supervised outdoor deck time (indoor cat), and loving lap petting time. We received a daily review with pictures that served as both comfort and joy to us while we were away. Absolutely reliable. Knowledgeable about animal care. Loving and attentive. Professional. Responsible. Attentive to detail. Michele made sure we provided for unanticipated problems prior to leaving so our bases were covered in any event. THE BEST. We came home to a calm, happy, well cared for cat.
As fellow pet care providers we are quite picky who we leave our pack with should we go out of town. Ramona took care of a large zoo of animals (game birds, fish, Guinea pigs, and dogs). Her updates were thorough, and we came home to a clean house and happy animals. If you need a professional you can trust, you've found one here. Part of why we never leave town is not having had anyone we felt comfortable leaving them with, but now we do!
I love Michelle! We trust her implicitly with our dog and home. She goes above and beyond by bringing in our trash cans and packages when she's at our home for a dog visit. She sends us texts and pictures of our dog so we know she's taken care of. And she insists you text her that you're back home so she's assured your pet is safe. That's excellent care! Highly recommend her!
Camano Pet Sitters hav been taking care of my two Springer Spaniels for the last 2 years and I couldn't be happier. I have the peace of mind of knowing that my dogs are being loved and cared for when I have to be gone during the day. I don't know what I would do without Michele, Pat and their crew of dog lovers. I highly recommend them for you and your pet!
I was stressed, four sorta feral cats and I had to take a trip. My vet said boarding was a bad idea because none of them would adjust well - in addition to being expensive. Camano Pet Sitters to the rescue! Not only did they do a professional job I think they made headway with my cats who were actually peeking out at them by the end of the week. I cannot recommend Camano Pet Sitters highly enough - they are now my go to folks when I have to travel. My neighbors, who travel regularly, were so impressed by the level of professionalism and caring my pets received they will be switching to Camano Pet Sitters.
My 1 year old corgi Auggie has gone to Castle Rock a couple times very recently and even though I was so nervous, there was absolutely no reason to be. The staff took the time to answer my questions via phone before I dropped him off the first time, and were very transparent that if things didn't go well they would let me know to ensure Auggie wasn't being forced into a social situation that didn't serve him. A happy pup, is a tired pup and Auggie Dog is beyond pooched once we get home! I think it's safe to say this will be a regular weekly outing for him.
After thoroughly researching every kennel on the Coast, I chose Castle Rock for my dog's two-week boarding in August. My regular sitter was unavailable, and I was so nervous about leaving him for an extended period in a place he was unfamiliar with. However, the exceptional care, regular updates, and patience from the Castle Rock team quickly alleviated my concerns. Indy thrived, making numerous friends and having a fantastic time. I'm deeply grateful for the peace of mind they provided! Castle Rock has earned my trust, and I won't hesitate to return in the future. Thank you for taking wonderful care of Indy!
I have been taking my rescue dog Birdie here for a few weeks on and off. I had a concern today so called the daycare, the owner took the time to talk me through what was happening with my dog, told me how she's been doing and what they were doing to work on her allowing them to catch her (she's nervous of people). I appreciate that she took her time talking to me and made sure I understood what was going on and why. So many people get defensive when you ask questions, but they just wanted me to be clear and feel comfortable with everything. My dog definitely enjoys going there as she's always ready to jump out of the car when we arrive and ways very tired when we get home. Photo of our tired dog after a day at castle rock
We were in urgent need of a doggy day care but I wasn't going to try Castle Rock because of a very bad experience a few years ago with my two other dogs; my husband convinced me to give the new owners a try. Let me tell you: the new owners are wonderful! They are concern and caring. They assess each new dog so that they are able to place the dog in a group that suits all their personalities. The dogs have lots of play time and come back home pretty tired. When we drop off our dog, he can't wait to go greet his new friends. He's a happy puppy and we are happy parents!
I can' t say enough great things about this place! They are so wonderful with my pets and they make us feel at ease when I eave them with them for the day and most recently 12 days. There kindness to dogs is appreciated and admired. A special thank you to Tiffany, Hannah and Jill.
Dropped my 8m old puppy off today. It was his first time at a daycare and I can't say enough good things about them. He's absolutely exhausted and was so happy, they were super great at communication and made me feel happy to leave him with them. I will absolutely be bringing him back.
Castle Rock Kennels is amazing. Our Ziggy loves it there . He's always happy to go see his doggie friend . The owners and staff are so friendly and know their stuff. Thank you, guys, from Ziggy and his dad.
Best kennel ever! My dog gets excited just driving past the place, let alone pulling into the driveway! They have always been so kind and supportive, and very understanding with my rescue dogs needs. She's always happy, and very tired from playing when I pick her up. I couldn't imagine leaving her with anyone else!
Great service, very accommodating, good facilities for the doggos. My dog is always smiles when I pick her up.
Castle Rock has been a wonderful place for us to bring our pup while we work during the day. Our pup loves all of her friends and always comes home happy and totally pooped. The staff there are wonderfully attentive to all the dogs and their needs. They are friendly and responsible. Their boarding services are also great as well. So lucky to have a spot that your dog already knows and loves to care for your dog if you have to go away. Highly recommend!
Grace has been our Rico’s second Mom. He was always happy and willing to jump into Graces car when she picked him up for his stay. We have been very fortunate to have met and to have become friends with Grace. All pets are treated like family with lots of love and respect. By far, Grace is the dog whisperer of Vancouver Island . ❤️❤️
Great care in a beautiful home like environment. Is like a beautiful summer camp for your dog
Excellent condition and treatment for your beloved pet
Very nice
This business is an absolute blessing. My dog loves the daycare and is always excited when I tell her she’ll be going. The home environment for boarding makes it a good experience for dogs and cats alike, since they are staying in homey spaces rather than institutional kennels. All the staff are lovely people. Finally, the location and especially the entry garden are just stunning. It’s a beautiful place with good heart.
I reached out to All Critter Pet Care & Training to get some help with training my new pup alongside the dog I've had for a few years. I did the 5 week training plan and it helped a TON. Karry was excellent. I loved how straightforward she was. After training, we decided to put my youngest pup, Penny, into daycare weekly. Penny absolutely LOVES daycare! When I pull into the driveway she knows she's about to have a good day. She can't get through the door fast enough. It makes me feel good knowing that I'm leaving my girl in a place where she genuinely wants to be, and a place that I know she'll be safe (the dogs are never left unattended). Penny has a regular schedule, but she also goes on some other as-needed days. We don't know what we will do when we have to move :(
Highly recommend All Critter Pet Care! I know my puppy is well taken care of, getting good exercise and the socialization she needs. She loves to go play with her friends, and when she gets home she sleeps. She is better behaved at home as well. It’s awesome!
We loved training with Karry! We had a hard case with our pup and I can't properly express how much of a comfort she was with her knowledge. Karry really focused on training my husband and I on dog language so we could understand her better. This not only helped with training, but also helped all of our relationship in general. We really needed one on one training with our dog and we believe we made the right choice with choosing Karry. 10/10 recommend
Karry is so knowledgeable and a joy to work with. Even my pupp loved her. We'll be taking our rescue to her when his health gets under control.
Karry is an incredibly knowledgeable and gifted trainer. Duke, my Frenchie Boston mix, was highly reactive to other dogs and even nipping at my kids. I was at the end of my rope when I brought him to Karry. She gave me so much great information, and even more importantly, so much hands-on training. She showed me how to interact with Duke to help him behave. In 8 weeks, Duke has transformed. His reactivity to other dogs has decreased significantly and he is more polite in his interactions with people. Today, he passed his final test with flying colors. I would highly recommend Karry for any behavioral issues or training in general.
Karry Brooks is hands down the best dog trainer on the island. She doesn’t just show you basic commands and send you on your way. She helps you understand your dog and the way they process everything. She teaches you (as a human) patience, understanding, and the proper correction techniques. As a dog owner of a very reactive dog, I’ve learned to understand his needs and boundaries. Karry has, not only, transformed me as a dog owner, but has helped Dexter grow into a secure and confident dog. If you feel like you’ve lost any hope in training your dog, please see Karry before anything else. She can transform the bond between you and your pup as long as you’re willing to put in the work!
Karry was a great help to our military family. She is knowledgeable in the behavior of dogs and because of her advice we were able to get our dog on anxiety medication. If we still lived in the area we would use her services forever.
Karry is AWESOME! We LOVE All Critter Pet Care & Training LLC! Our rescue pup, Archie, continues to learn and thrive with training and gets his social time with other great dogs at day care. :)
I would like to say that I haven't even started training my dog with her yet. We simply did an evaluation. I just can not say enough at how happy I was to have my dog meet Karry. She helped me with a lot of training tips. And she quoted fairly about the prices of her service. She was super patient with all of my questions.. And my dog who has very little training (since I just got him.)
We knew Kate was the one we wanted to watch our kitties the minute we met her. She was knowledgeable about cats and proved that when she got creative in ways to get our kitties to eat. (cat owners know how finicky they can be especially when their world is interrupted) My kitties are typically very shy but they seemed to take to her quite well. Kate texted us daily updates to let us know how they were doing. That alone made our vacation so much more relaxing because I didn't stress about them being alone. I especially appreciated that she asked us to text her and let her know that we had made it home so she knew my kitties were taken care of. Goodness knows when traveling anything can happen and she had our back. Kate is awesome!
Kate watched our house and two kitties while we were gone for 8 days. We couldn't even tell that we hadn't been here, and the kitties were well loved. She was very professional and thorough. Will absolutely be using her again. Thank you Kate!
I’ve been using them for about a year and have had a great experience! Definitely puts my mind at ease when I’m away from home!
Kate is awesome. I needed her services during 4th of July at very short notice. It was no problem after being admitted to the hospital from ER visit. I would recommend Animals First to anyone.
Dear Animals First, We enjoy being one of your customers for over 10 years. We trust you completely with a key and full access to our home. Our dogs often go with us on travel adventures, but sometimes, because of their busy schedules, they aren't able to accompany us on certain trips, like when we toured Italy for 2 weeks. It is particularly on such occasions that we appreciate your wonderful services the most. We know that in your loving care, our four-legged family members get to sleep in their own home, take daily walks on familiar routes, hear kind words spoken to them, and receive fresh food, water, treats, & gentle petting. At times we've missed the dogs when we're away, and you have responded to our texts and emails with status reports that ease our hearts and minds. We smile on returning home when we read the daily log you keep about each dog describing their moods, how they walked, and how they did their "business." The service you deliver is priceless, and it makes our time away from home and pets thoroughly relaxing. May God bless and prosper your business. We, including and especially our dogs, love you. Kayren and Ron Ohnhaus
Genuine caring for your furry friends. Kate gives individualized attention and gives each pet attention daily. My pets were much more calm (I believe) because they felt taken care of.
Just started working with them and their investment and care to our pet has been very rewarding. If you care about your pet, I recommend Animals first!
Kate is wonderful and kept me updated on my pets while I was traveling for work. I'm glad I found Animals First!
Kate and Charlotte are great to work with, trustworthy and would recommend them to anyone.
Omgosh, these guys are great. Couldn't ask for better care for my pets.
We took our dog out to WAGSVILLE today just to check it out and see if it was a good fit. All I can is: wow. Beautiful property, very securely fenced. Had a good chat with the owner Barash; he has a long history in the hospitality business so that assured me he’d look after our dog well. We also were very impressed at the limit on the dog numbers found at WAGSVILLE. He outlined the dogs’ daily routine for us - they get an excellent amount of outdoors time whatever the weather, just modified when it’s snowy or rainy or hot. We will take our dog over for a stay about once a month and then leave him there for our next big trip in November. He’s going to love it there. Nice big kennels in a clean, secure, well heated building - and of course , enough space for dogs to run. Senior citizens and small dogs have their own exercise area, safe from larger more boisterous dogs. Easy to get to on Bowen Island, and the island’s veterinarian is close by.
This is the ONLY place I send my doggies when we go on vacation. The grounds are beautiful and I know that they will be taken care of. My dog has a few restrictions and with close care on site, I know that he will thrive!
Our dog, Kona, has been going to Wagsville for the last 7.5 years and we never think of making any other arrangements when we go away. We know he is in good hands here. Kona is never more excited or happy than when he hears the shuttle pull up or gets dropped off at the ferry terminal. This place is like a vacation for him as well, not just somewhere he has to go when we go on vacation!
Our dog Ruby has been going to doggie daycare since she was 2 months old. We've tried other daycares and Ruby absolutely loves Wagsville. Hands Down Flat... If we could give this place 6 stars we WOULD !!! The owner has a natural ability with all dogs and and BIG heart too. You can see it when various dogs see him too. They simply love him to bits. The best part is the one on one attention he brings to all his dogs and the grounds are simply outstanding. Thanks so much Barash for all you do for Ruby!
best dog care you could find.Whenever I turn to the road leading to the place my Bernese starts to jump in the car feeling to excited and happy to be with Barash ,Tara and Ella their young daughter who love her so sooooooooo much. Perfect size of premises meadow,pond,woods around beautiful and very healthy surroundings.Certainly the best place where your pup will be very happy,well taken care of and loved .
Reasonably priced and excellent service. The dogs are very well taken care of.
Great overnight dog care. My dog was a little hesitant to come home...
What a great place to take your dogs!
Miss Vikki is, in a word, outstanding. A great facility with separate (and secured) areas for large and small breeds. The small breed area is "Eagle proof." I have absolute faith in Vikki and her crew to love and take care of my beloved family member. Vikki is knowledgable, experienced and loving to all of her canine charges. Recommended without reservation. I completely trust Pampered Pooch.
We have used Vicki's establishment for a couple years. Our two cockapoos are consistently safe, well cared for and come home exhausted from their socialization with other small dogs. Sometimes we have had to leave them for over a week, and all went well, with frequent e-mails from Miss Vicki to calm our anxieties. I feel less Catholic guilt leaving our "kids" with Vicki than any other place we have tried.
I trained for agility wiith my dog zoey with VICKI. SHES EXCELLENT TEACHER FOR MASTER AND DOG. TO WORK TOGETHER HAVING FUN. WE LOVED IT SO MUCH I CONTINUED THRU ALL THE OBSTACLES FOR COMPETITION COUTSE AND SO MUCH FUN. MADE MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY DOG A VERY SPECIAL EXPERIENCE LEARNING TOGETHER.
Vikki is no longer providing doggy day care but is doing agility training classes and my mini Aussie and I are loving it so far!
Only place 4 our dogs. The owner, Vicky, is wonderful. Only place we'll leave our two dogs. We know they'll be taken care of so we can be gone and not worry about them.
This is an excellent place - the owner really loves and cares for her dogs!
Awesomeness
