Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

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!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
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!
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
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!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
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.
Cat and Paul sat for me in December and kept a watchful eye on my trusty sidekick Jake. All I can say is my gosh what a great job they did giving Jake a lot of TLC. He obviously missed them since he wandered around our home looking for them after their departure. My home was left in the exact same condition and they did a great job of communicating with me during my trip, letting me know exactly how Jake was getting along. I can't thank them enough for taking great care of my home and showing Jake a great time. I hope that during the coming year they will volunteer to do another sit for me. If you need any other specifics about how awesome a sitter Cat is please feel free to call or email me and I will be more than happy to give you more details. Hope you have an opportunity in the future to use them as house and pet sitters! Regards! Edward
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 $ per visit, $20/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!
My mini-doodle Rusty had a wonderful experience during a full day at Mac’s Dog Camp. He came home tired, happy and eager to come back. Mac kept a close eye on him to make sure he was socializing well with the other dogs. He also worked with Rusty with some obedience training. We will schedule another visit soon!
We had an amazing experience. Macken is an incredible dog sitter. He cared for our 11-week-old GSP puppy and seamlessly incorporated our training into the dog sitting. He also cared for two of our family members' dogs, aged 3 and 8, taking them on daily walks and adventures. The communication was excellent, and we were delighted to receive daily pictures of our pups. Thank you, Macken, for taking such good care of our pups and providing lots of fun while we were away for the weekend!
Macken watched my pup Milo for 3 days (including an overnight stay) and did such a great job! He did some training and got my city dog comfortable off-leash. Macken researched more about Italian greyhounds, since he hadn't watched them before and showed a lot of care when watching Milo.
Susan is one of the most amazing human beings ever! My husband and I have 2 English Bulldogs that are our everything. We always get pictures of the time Susan spends with our pups and they are always amazing pics. Our 2 dogs Butter and Moose just adore Susan and we could not have gotten through Moose puppy times without her. She started coming during the day, while we were at work to take them out and this helped potty train Moose. Susan also writes in a notebook about her time with our pups and if they had treats etc. we trust Susan with our precious little furry family members and if you are looking for a good person that is great with animals, Susan is the right person for sure!
Susan has been walking my dogs for years! - She is always prompt, professional, and safe. My two 100lb + dogs adore her.
Susan takes excellent care of our pups. The dogs absolutely love her and we are grateful for her amazing skills and good heart. Susan always goes above and beyond to give our pups all they need and beyond. She is like family to us. Highly, highly recommended!
I still cannot believe how lucky I am to have found Susan. We live in the Cle Elum area with a dog, cat and chickens. Before Susan, it was hard to leave the house for any length of time. Now we travel with complete peace of mind. She takes wonderful care of our critters and they love her to pieces. Susan is an excellent communicator whom we trust completely. I cannot recommend her enough.
Susan has helped us with our cat and dog for 5 years now - I don't know what we'd do without her! She is completely reliable, sensible and thoughtful always. Our dachshund is 11 and Susan is patient with her. Great communication each day and planning for each week. I never worry about our pets on the days she comes to our home. She is trustworthy and super caring. She always let's us know how the walks go and anything unusual about our dog's health or otherwise. So thankful we found her!! She has always done a great job for us, without a doubt.
Susan has lovingly cared for my cats and my dog for several years. She has always gone well above and beyond, making sure to send adorable pictures of ‘my boys’ when I travel, and update her notebook with details from each visit. Her experience working for a vet just adds to my comfort in leaving my pets in her care. I have recommended her to three different friends, and they each speak glowingly about her service.
We have a Japanese hunting breed, Shikoku and is known for not the easiest to handle. We got the dog from Canada 5 years ago, and he was required to quarantine at home for 12 weeks. Because of this, his socialization window was closed when we could bring him out. We needed a dog walker who was experienced, patient, and understood how to handle a dog reactive pup. Susan was referred to us by another dog walker who specialized in difficult to handle breeds. We met Susan and immediately liked her, she was knowledgeable about difficult to handle dogs. She was so pleasant, and we immediately trusted her. Susan was reliable, rain or shine, she showed up day after day. Not only that our dog got the exercise he needed, Susan shared with us her methodology on handling our dog. We saw that his leash manners improved over time when we walked him. Now, he's no longer reactive but focuses on us when he sees other dogs. We also have two chihuahuas, Susan sees them when she comes, she treats them as well. Now when I say "Susan is here", all three of them jump up and down for her. She provides the best service and care!!!
Susan, from Petsercise in Bellevue, is a life saver! She seamlessly stepped in when surgery prevented me from walking my two dogs. She has accommodated each dog's special needs perfectly. She is flexible, prompt and very reliable. She has a true love of dogs, and has taken the time to get to know each one individually. Though I have fully recovered, I have continued to have Susan walk the dogs a few times a week. They love seeing her and it has helped me immensely organize my work day. I would not hesitate to recommend Susan, and Petsercise, for dog walking or check in care. She really takes the time to get to know your dogs and their particular needs. She has been so helpful; just perfect!
Susan is the best dog walker my dog Bella ever had. She’s dependable, a good communicator, responsive and very caring a good with animals. Bella, my dog has stranger danger and Susan and Bella bonded quickly. Susan did a great job working with Bella and helping her feel safe on walks. She’s amazing and you should hire her now. I only wish we still lived in Issaquah.
My husband and I have had Susan come visit our Vizsla for almost two years. We added a Corgi in January and both our dogs love it when she comes. Susan is very reliable, sends text photos to you of your dog and writes in a log book all that she and the pets did during her visit.
Boarded my dog, Theo, here for 5 days. They treated him very well and gave him a spacious kennel and lots of outside time. I also received daily videos and photos of activities they were doing such as supervised play time with other dogs, walks, tv and snuggles, everything you would want in a boarding experience. The price was reasonable and the staff is excellent. Definitely my go to option when heading out of town. The photos are some of those that were sent to me daily. Such a wonderful experience.
Our dog, Douglas Fir, loved his stay at the Ellensburg Pet Lodge! Staff was very helpful and friendly, and were even kind enough to send us this photo of him enjoying his outside time and making some new friends! :)
Gus has been visiting Cayla at the Lodge since its inception. You know they deserve five stars when he is excited to arrive. He is treated well here!
Super friendly staff and they are great to work with! My dog is pretty shy and they’ve been able to accommodate to her and still get her outside and interacting with other dogs. Would recommend to anyone
We were in a pinch when we traveling with our dog and saw we couldn’t bring him into the Gorge concert venue. Kyla was very helpful and got him in last minute. The play area was well taken care of and everyone was very kind and friendly! I highly suggest the Ellensburg Pet Lodge for excellent boarding and friendly service!
They are so kind at Eburg Pet Lodge! They definitely love their dog clients! We appreciate knowing our dog is safe & happy while we are out of town.
They always take such great care of our dogs! One is a bit nervous with strangers and the other has an eye condition that requires medication—Ellensburg Pet Lodge takes care of everything and sends us updates letting us know how our dogs are doing. When we pick them up we can always see how happy and well-cared for our pups are!
Our dogs Nala and Scrappy are so well taken care of here the times that we have taken them to board here. We travel the extra hour away from home to board them here because of the costumer care we receive and the feeling of ease that our dogs are in the best of hands.
Cayla and her staff are excellent! They understand dog behavior and provide a wonderful safe environment. I have 5 Cane Corsos, very few people can handle them but I have been able to board them at EPL stress free. I highly recommend both the daycare (we use the daycare as well) and EPL boarding facilities, they know and love dogs!
Ellensburg Pet Lodge is a wonderful place. Our dogs have been guests here several times over the last few years. During our most recent experience Cayla went above and beyond. We were hospitalized and she not only boarderd the girls on zero notice but she picked them up and dropped them off when we finally got home. We were so appreciative of this. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a boarder. Thank you Ellensburg Pet Lodge for all you do.
We love Bon Voyage! They have been so good with our two fur babies and treat them like their own. One of our dogs was an elderly dog who was blind. They loved on them both, but especially our"old man". I've always felt like they were in great hands with Bon Voyage. We recently lost our old man, and they have been so kind and compassionate. I definitely recommend them.
I boarded my dogs overnight for the first time. The owner was nice when I checked in but the rest of the staff was rude especially the older lady who checked me out. I asked how my dogs did while there and she looked at me like I was crazy. She said “I don’t know” with a snotty, annoyed attitude. The website is also very deceiving regarding the pricing. The listed “overnight boarding” price is actually the price per calendar day so the “overnight” price is automatically double what’s listed. It’s a cinder block building with kennels smaller than even the humane society. The loud echoing barking hall is not peaceful or comfortable for any of the pups. I certainly won’t be going back.
Pricing is straight forward, transparent and fair. They provide multiple dog discounts. Knowledgeable and caring staff. Very consciences about feeding routine, etc. I have one senior (16 yrs) and I trust he is watched and kept safe while there. Dogs come home healthy, happy, clean and show no signs of stress. Definitely my "go to" boarding facility. I really like the convenience of their website. Notifications sent about reservations, when vaccinations are due to expire, viewing invoices and I can keep my records and vaccinations up to date via the website. Very efficient.
Our HIGH MAINTENANCE dogs have never been so happy. They don't let us say goodbye at drop off and they drag us into the facility. HAPPY DOGS, HAPPY OWNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Elsa seemed to be well taken care of while at the Bon Voyage Pet Resort. She was a rescue, adopted twice and brought back twice, so I worried about leaving her at a kennel. She did ok, though I think she thought she was being adopted again until she smelled my hand and realized it was me. They took good care of her for me and I will use them again if the need arises. Staff very friendly and competent.
We had our pets boarded there after a fire. The staff was very caring and devoted to our animals. We appreciate everything they did and continue to do for our family.
My dogs seem excited when they arrive here and come home happy and healthy. Pricing is very reasonable for two dogs staying together and online booking is convenient. I love that they have several outdoor areas and get to go outside often. My energetic Brittanys definitely need that! I will continue to trust that Bon Voyage will take good care of my dogs when I cannot take them with me on my travels.
Our three dogs loved it at Bon Voyage! They clearly had very good care as they came home happy and tired. The resort takes great pride in detailed instructions and were available to answer any questions we had. Will definitely be having our dogs board there again.
This was an amazing place to board my girl, Bonnie, when we weren't able to take her on vacation. The staff was all very nice and accommodating and Bonnie looked great after her stay. I really love that they have a clean facility where the dogs are able to stay privately and not have the stress of having too many other dogs around them.
We were building a new house and had delays so we had to board our cat for about 8 weeks. The staff at Bon Voyage cared for our kitty and loved on him. They kept me up to date on his stay and I visited him several times. Later. I had to leave my dogs for a few days and they did great as well. I was confident that everyone was loved and well taken care of.
The owners were so friendly, communicative, and accommodating. Felt totally comfortable leaving our two rowdy boys for a week. On arrival you could tell they've had many years experience working with dogs. It was nice to know and see they were not confined in crates and were able to play. Will definitely be using this kennel again!
Our fur baby boarded for the first time ever at Ellensburg kennels this weekend. We were all anxious, but Tim and Tari took great care of our boy. He got lots of love and attention, tons of treats and affirmations, play time with other dogs, and a safe and cozy setup at night. Our weekend trip was too busy to ask for pictures in the moment, but when we came back they showed us the many pictures they took while he played so we knew he was having a ball. They even set him up an online doggy profile complete with thorough notes and 'buddies' -- dogs with whom he played/got along well -- so they know for future visits what he needs and likes. This up and coming dog daycare and boarding is already fantastic, and we can't wait to see what is in store for them in the future. Our boy will be back, for sure!
This was our first time boarding our poodle Ahgi. Ahgi has a serious separation issues not to mention was quite sick from Critter Care hospital, In fact, both my cat and Ahgi had bloody stools and needed medicines after boarding from Critter Care. After calling around, I ended up talking with the owner at the Ellensburg Kennel. They offered walks, meats/ steak treats, even sent a short video of my dog hanging out and having fun. I have never experienced anyone doing that entire my life. Thank you so much for taking such a great care of my dog Ahgi and we will always look you up if your service is needed. You all ROCK!!!! Mia Henderson
We had a family emergency and a challenging dog and Tari and Tim stepped in to help us. They are incredibly kind! First kennel experience? Challenging dog? You can trust Ellensburg Kennels!
Tim and Tari are great people and really love what they do. Thank you for taking of Wheaton terror while we were out of town. Highly recommend their kennel and their dogs.
My dogs are super excited when they see the owners. Super friendly people, last minute find with what I need for my 2 Siberian huskies.
Amazing place, and wonderful people who care deeply for every dog! Love this place, and it's owners.
Our dog seemed to love it here. We'll use them again. Thanks!!
Very nice place, pup was happy when we picked her up!
Our dog loved hanging out here.
Kelly is absolutely amazing. Her place is clean and comfortable and the dogs really are spoiled. She spends so much quality time with the dogs .I never worry one bit about my dog when she is with Kelly. The dogs are always happy and having a great time when I’ve stopped by to drop off or pick up. When we are gone for an extended period of time we get pictures and updates. Really puts you at ease when you know your fur kids are getting such great care. We can’t say enough good things about Kelly’s Creature Comforts
Kelly's Creature Comforts is the only place we trusted to leave our yellow lab Gunner with! Kelly and everyone who works for her are amazing. Gunner had allergies and they were always happy to give him the care he needed. He loved staying with them. Now apart from boarding your dog they also have an incredible Sniff Park. You owe it to yourselves and your dogs to check her out.
Kelly's Creature Comforts was so perfect for my sweet Annie Oakley who was not even a year old. I felt like she had a "home away from home " feeling for a whole week. It is such a wonderful facility that provided my Annie with a spacious indoor play area along with lots of room to run and play outside and socialize with other dogs. She had her own little room with comfortable bedding and toys. Kelly is very knowledgeable and passionate about dogs (animals) and ensures a safe, very clean & lots of FUN environment for them. I live an hour away from Kelly but I would drive however long it took me to leave my Annie with her!! I highly recommend Kelly's Creature Comforts!! I can't wait for our next vacation so Annie can get some more "Kelly LOVE"!!!
I took my dog, Luna to Kelly's CC this summer while I was temporarily living in the area. Kelly was extremely warm and friendly. After our initial call, I knew that Luna would be in good hands with Kelly - a true dog watching pro. Luna had a few overnights with Kelly this Summer. Luna is a little bit of an anxious/ nervous girl, and Kelly went above and beyond to make Luna feel comfortable, and helped her eat when she was too nervous to eat. I felt relaxed and at ease knowing that Luna was in good hands with Kelly. I would definitely recommend her, she's fantastic!
I have been a big fan of KCC since my first use of their services six years ago. What started out as stopping by to see to the needs of my five cats morphed into using at-home walking services when I got a dog. I don't think a kinder, more loving group of people who show uptmost care and respect for animals and my home are available in my area. If my non-vocal Husky would talk he'd howl them high praise!
I love Kelly's Creature Comforts. This place is clean, Well organized, loving and is like a real home away from home. My 9 yr old Shepherd,who doesnt like me to be out of her sight, feels at home here and is treated with sensitive care and concern. Kelly really understands dogs and knows how to manage each one. Kelly makes sure that meds are given as prescribed and needed. The bedrooms for each dog are true luxury. There is clean room to play inside and out and sofas for dogs who like to feel at home. This is the only place I would have my dog stay. Thank you Kelly's Creature Comforts Team.!!!
My boy loves the time he spends at Kelly's. He is very social and has alot of energy. I never have to worry about him cause I know he is well taken care of. Kelly's know their dogs!
I have used KCC several times to board my dog and wouldn't go anywhere else. Great facility for the dogs and I know Kelly will treat my pup with great care. She loves to romp with other dogs and KCC gives her all that and more. Cage free fun!
Highly recommend Kelly’s Creature Comforts! They are the best around. My Australian shepherd loves going to dog daycare each week. She gets excited when we get close to Sharon’s and always comes home happy and tired. I know my dog is cared for and loved and gets plenty of exercise. Forever grateful we found Kelly’s Creature Comforts as we never have to stress when we take a trip as I know our pup is getting the best care and feels at home! The best place for your furry best friend!
I really enjoy having Kelly's to take our dog to. He always enjoys himself, and comes home tired after having such a good time. Kelly is great with communications when she has your dog, and is very good at making sure your dog is the right fit for her place. She's definitely made it a home away from home for the dogs that visit.
I had planned a road trip from CA to Washington and Loving Paws was the nearest boarding so decided to check it out. I submitted all the paperwork a month ahead and confirmed all details with them ahead of time. We had to issues dropped her off or picking her up. I was nervous because my Snow (maltipoo) is very timid with new people and is defensive around other big dogs. When we dropped her off, they came out to greet Snow and spent a few minutes with us before taking her in. Snow happily walked away leaving us feeling very comfortable. We did a receive a few text updates letting us know how she was doing which was a nice check in and photo. When we picked up Snow at the end of her stay, she was so happy to see us. They told us she made friends with an older cat and an adult Great Dane! We were very happy with Snow’s stay at Loving Paw. If we’re ever back in the area, we will definitely be bringing her back!
I’m from out of town and had the best experience boarding my dog here. Monica and team were kind, open and responded promptly to the millions of questions I presented. My dog is 85lbs, golden retriever mix. He had a previous negative experience and we hadn’t taken him anywhere since. All of this information was shared and we communicated well about the care he’d have. I trusted Monica due to her knowledge and empathy. Rambo stayed for a couple of hours one day, and the next he boarded 12 hours (overnight stay). It was a daunting choice but a family wedding required a lot of my time. I received texts with pictures and updates. Their messages were so specific and captured his personality, it was comforting. It allowed for me to be present in events knowing that he was safe and in really good hands. I’m truly grateful. And I do hope anyone else considering gives this place a shot. They were great.
This was our first time leaving our puppy with someone and we were very nervous about boarding him overnight. Monica was reassuring and set our minds at ease. She seemed comfortable and confident in her ability to care for our rescue dog. She sent us photos and updates and we were delighted to hear that our dog was doing well. We love that he got to play with Monica's puppy and tire himself out. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Loving Paws to anyone needing a safe and comfortable place for their pet.
Absolutely the best boarding/daycare I’ve ever used. My dog has some excitability issues and your normal, standard dog day care would probably not take him. The team are super patient with him and have worked so hard with me to manage his issue. He loves it at LP and it’s clear to me why- this place truly cares about the dogs and it shows.
We absolutely love this place and the amazing women who run it! Our dog is a handful in more ways than one, and we appreciate their willingness to love on her more than we can express. It’s a huge relief to know she’s not only safe, but in an environment that is similar to home. We live out of town but will continue to bring her here even if we aren’t staying in the area, because of how happy she is while there. She has really benefitted from being able to socialize and play with other dogs of different sizes, breeds and personalities as well. We are so grateful to receive text message updates and pictures on how she is doing while there, and they are always kind and lovely to talk to, even when she is not staying with them. Thank you Loving Paws for taking on the challenge that is our Roxy, and for helping her grow and become a more confident, happy dog.
We are picky about boarding places as we want our dogs to have the best experience they can when we are away and Loving Paws did not disappoint! We LOVED getting daily pictures of our dogs during their stay and that made us feel so at ease to see them enjoying their time there. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better! We will definitely use their service in the future!
I've tried out a few different puppy sitters and I now will turn to Loving Paws EVERY time. They are quick to respond, kind to people and pups, but also flexible and feels like a friend/neighbor dog sitting. They have a big open area for my Sheepadoodle to run and run and run but also have comfy places to curl up when it's nap time. I've gotten good quality pictures and updates each day he's there that will sooth every the more nervous doggy mommy. Don't hesitate to book with these folks. :)
I would recommend loving paws over traditional crate pet boarding. My cats were able to have their own room instead of being stuffed in a cage. We were dealing with a lot of car issues that severely affected our pickup and drop off time and they were very understanding & accommodating about the whole situation and we’re very easy to contact. They even sent us pictures of our cats with some kittens (with our permission for them to meet). Very thankful for the friendly animal loving women at loving paws! Especially the employee we were dealing with.
I just boarded my husky/shepherd cross with them over the weekend. They took him in as one of the pack, and he had lots of friends to keep him busy all weekend. They sent me an update with some pictures to let me know he was OK, pick up and drop off took less than five minutes each time, they were pleasant and answered every question. They would like to have him back, and if I’m ever in the area again I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my buddy there. Thanks so much!
We love these gals. They were able to watch our dog despite short notice. The website to provide the information for the dog was very thorough so drop off was very quick and efficient. Pictures were sent frequently and our dog looked like she had a great time. They are a loving bunch and we would definitely use them again when in the area.
Lori from Cozy Critters is the best pet sitter. She is wonderful with our kitty Lucy and keeps an eye on our house when we are gone. We recommend her for your pet sitting needs!!!
Lori is one of the most dependable delightful animal loving person that we have ever known. It's hard to trust someone to take care of your pets but we can leave our dog and cat in her care when we leave town knowing that they will be loved and well taken care of. She's the best!!
Cozy Critters are great with my animals. My animals love them, and I don’t trust anyone else to watch over my animals. Cozy Critters is my go too for taking care of my fur babies and I have a menagerie of animals too. My dogs love them, and my list of people is small in who I would allow to take care of my horses. I never have to worry about my animals in Cozy Critters care. Thanks guys. You are the best!!!
We have three cats; two lovable demon spawn siblings and one grumpy old man; but they're still family. When ever we are out of town, we call Lori at Cozy Critters. She not only has been completely reliable in meeting our needs, checking on the cats twice a day, feeding, changing water, cleaning cat litter boxes, etc., but she's also taken care of our house plants and tomato plants. And on at least one occasion she's taken our grumpy old man to the vet. Having someone who's dependable and who loves animals is something that's important to us. We're lucky to have someone like Lori to be nearby to help us out.
Our two cats had to be alone for 10 days. One of them gets stressed and hides when we're gone. Not with Cozy Critters and Lori on the job. My scared cat was happy and came out of hiding. My other cat enjoyed playing and having attention. We are really satisfied. It's well worth the peace of mind. Update 2022: we still use Cozy Critters. Jak comes out of hiding and Luna tries to get tummy scritches. We appreciate you!
Lori is caring, reliable and a genuinely warm person. Best of all: my pups were both calm and happy when I returned home! I highly recommend Lori.
Lori has a very unique and amazing connection with my fur babies. I wouldn't trust them with anyone else. She made me and my babies feel so comfortable.
We have two blind doxies. Most people just shove them in a pen. We live in Longview, but drive to Yakima to see our grandkids and leave our dogs here. They love it! They usually hate going to the dog sitter, but they actually look comfortable and happy here with other dogs out in the yard. We will continue to take our dogs!! Laurie's husband even helped diagnose my dog with a problem that even the vet could not figure out!
Lori is amazing with not just her animals but everyone's. I would trust her with all my furry critters.
It is great to have a reliable and caring person to look look after your pets--Cozy Critters goes above and beyond. Excellent service and highly recommended.
Brought my cat Bagheera here while I went camping for a week. It was nice not having to worry about him. The staff here are really friendly and they do a great job and give the Animals lots of love and attention. I would recommend these guys to anyone.
i leave my cat here for pet boarding and they always do such an amazing job! I’m so grateful this place exists because it’s come in clutch so many times! thank you little paws! :)
Little Paws is absolutely amazing and I would trust them time and time again to watch my fur babies. I have had two incidents where I’ve needed to board my cats either overnight or for a few hours and they’re always willing to work with me to make sure they’re taken care of. The first time I dropped my cats off, I was very nervous because I had never boarded an animal, but they took such amazing care of my girls. I was not worried for one moment about them and the staff was kind enough to let me call and check on them. My girls are never stressed going in or coming back to me. I’ve interacted with several different staff members and they’ve all been absolutely amazing and so beyond kind, and always willing to share the cutest stories about my girls. You can tell that each of them truly care for your animals.
This place is great. Staff genuinely love your pet and I feel comfortable dropping my dog here for extended boarding when out of town and for doggy daycare. Matter of fact, my dog pulls me into the building she loves it so much there!
Ive only had to board my dog a couple times in the 7 years of owning her. i had a trip planned and last minute decided it wouldn’t work out for my little dog to join us. i called little paws and i was able to take her in for a trial period the next day. everything worked out great and she loved it! the staff that i encountered were all extremely sweet and one man (i can’t remember his name) had some friendly words when i expressed i was nervous since i usually dont board my dog. the pricing is very fair. im happy to say little paws is on my list of people i can trust to watch over my little dog!
Great place for dog grooming she has taken great care of my little guy.
Thank you Little Paws for always being there for Dagger and Shasta while we lived in Yakima. They absolutely love you and will miss you. By the way Shasta made weight. He is now 8lbs! Yippy. Thanks guys! Take care.
I once had a bad experience with a doggy daycare. I was so afraid to even try another. A very good friend of mine recommended this place when my hours at work became too long. I was so nervous. Listen, I can’t explain how great this place is. It’s clean, the staff is friendly, enough so that my Fur-son gets EXCITED to come! I wish I was joking. We’ve never had a bad experience here, he’s never reacted poorly, nor has he ever been assaulted by another animal at this place. I recommend it to all of my lovely furends. We absolutely LOVE little paws.
I will recommend this place to anyone!!! I've never had to board my cat before and I was really nervous about it. He's 17 and couldn't be left alone for the week we were gone. They were so amazing! The lady that checked him in was so sweet! She sent me multiple pictures everyday we were gone and gave me updates on how he was. He's on a special diet and very picky, and they were so accommodating! I could tell they truly care about my cat as much as I do! Absolutely great experience!
Little Paws took such great care of my cats. I was so worried as I had never boarded them before and wasn't sure how they would do. The staff said they were super friendly and playful with everyone. And also tried to make all kinds of friends with the other cats. I highly recommend them for both dogs and cats but especially for cats cause we all know how cats do with change. Thank you for taking care of my babies so well Little Paws!
This place is THE best! Our little Lady started going to daycare here back in May to get socialized after a scary puppy incident on a walk earlier this spring. The team at Waggin Tails Ranch did such a great job at getting her comfortable around other dogs again, and she now loves to play chase with any and every four legged friend (this wasn’t even a thought back in May!!!). We also just recently boarded her with them for two weeks and it was so wonderful to know that she was in a familiar place. She truly lived her best life for her entire stay with frequent photo updates for us to enjoy. Big smile always, and lots of friends in every photo! They even gave her a bath on the day we picked her up so that she was fresh and clean for us after all the fun she’d had out in the fields. I truly can’t say enough great things about them. Our #1 choice anytime we need daycare, or boarding!
We love Waggin Tails! They take excellent care of our pup, she always has a blast and comes home very tired from playing all day. We love that they take pics of her playing and upload them to their portal for us to view. Cannot say enough good things about this place!
I absolutely love Waggin’ Tails Ranch for my 1 year old Goldendoodle. Willow has been coming to day camp on Tuesdays since she was old enough to. Tuesdays have quickly become her favorite day of the week! It makes going to work a lot easier knowing my fur baby is being well taken care of and having FUN! When she realizes where we are going (“daycare”) she gets so excited. It was a great way to socialize her since she had been timid of other dogs as a puppy. They take great care in making sure that it is a safe and positive experience for all dogs. I absolutely love that they add photos of your fur baby to a photo gallery for you to view online. We recently boarded her for a week for the first time when we went out of the country. We were nervous since she hadn’t been away from us for longer than a single night before. The staff at Waggin’ Tails have been incredibly helpful and communicative with us the entire time. They have answered every question we have and have sent us an abundance of photos! Willow celebrated her first birthday while boarding and they put a Birthday Bandana on her and sent us photos. So cute! Willow was anxious and had an upset stomach while boarding, and the staff took extra care to hand feed her at night and make her home cooked chicken and rice to settle her stomach. If you are looking for a place for daycare or to board your dog while you’re away, look NO further than here. I would not have left for an entire week if I didn’t believe my Willow was in the absolute best care. Thank you Waggin’ Tails for being absolutely wonderful. We are extremely grateful for you and look forward to the many years to come!
I'll speak for my puppy seeing she can't type. The excitement when we go to "camp" is off the charts. Always greeted by friendly staff and the supervised playtime is a blast. She loves being social and comes home exhausted but in a good way. Knowing my girl is here makes ME feel great too!
We signed up and completed the Family Dog 1 class with our pup Franklin this last month. We learned so much as his owners but we cannot believe the amount of progress and improvement that Franklin showed. We are so happy with the results we received from this class! Bailie and Lori were fabulous trainers and were so nice and easy to work with. It was not only a group setting but also very personalized depending where your dogs progress was from class to class. 100% would recommend training through Waggin' Tails Ranch!
Very patient and people as well. They give you many positive ways to safely train your pets. Lots of experience with training. You can’t find a better place!
Great class! Lots of personal attention, and online class materials are helpful!
We’ve been taking our lab to Waggin Tails for the last year, since she was a tiny puppy. I can honestly say that every single person who works there is kind and knowledgeable and good at their job. They all seem to genuinely love dogs. The owner Lori, and her right-hand-man, Bailie, are are professional, responsive, and good at communicating. Our dog can be nuts most of the time- she’s a 1 year old lab- but they know how to handle her. We send her to day camp frequently. We boarded her for almost 2 weeks over the holiday and did not worry a bit because we know how much she likes it there. They have several giant outdoor play areas that they rotate the dogs in and a field for them to run and a canal for them to swim. It’s awesome. We did take the family dog class there as well. We were definitely the worst students in the class but staff was still smiling and helping us the whole way with expert personalized suggestions. We learned a lot. They know our dog and take great care of her. They give her a look like she’s that one goofy but sweet kid in the class that is a knucklehead but you still love them. We appreciate the staff at Waggin Tails so much and give them the highest recommendation.
We love Waggin Tails Ranch! Lori, Bailie and the team do such a great job taking care of the pups, my dog is always so excited to come to daycare!!
I can’t thank Sally of Waggin Tails Ranch enough for everything!! We have never bought or even thought of a breeder for our next puppy soulmate. My little boy came across her site and read about Sally, her family, love of God, and why they have a ranch dedicated to animals. After reading the website and seeing the families who have adopted their puppies, I knew this is where we would find our next puppy. And boy did we!! Our new puppy is Abby, a gorgeous Morkie, with a spunky personality. Sally communicated with us before we met Abby, spent time with us as we asked her tons of questions in our preparation and guided us on our new addition. What an exceptional experience and extraordinary human.
I’ve been using Hometown K9 for a little over 3 years now. There are several options for boarding dogs here in the valley, Mike and Erin are the only ones I completely trust. I’ve seen firsthand the lengths they will go to for the dogs they take care of, often above and beyond what a normal facility would do, because they care! From half-day daycare visits to full week boarding stays, both my dogs LOVE Hometown and get excited when we turn down they street for their facility!
I absolutely love taking my dogs here, Mike and Erin are so incredible and take such good care of my dogs, they are always so excited to go there and I'm just so grateful to have a place to go where I feel safe and know that my little boys will be taking care of! They go above and beyond to make sure that everything is taken care of, so thank you so much Erin and Mike for your incredible hospitality!
My big Lab is happy to go here. She seems well cared for and Mike, Erin, and Dianna are all really nice.
We brought our puppy in for 2 weeks of training there and I got to say I'm so impressed with the results. Our 5-month puppy started out very hyper to where it was causing problems in our household with young kids. When she came back from hometown K9 it was a complete change. Now she is calm and mature and and so much more pleasant. The peace in my house is restored thank you so much for your wonderful work. I don't know how you did it but we're so grateful.
Beyond grateful for this wonderful family. They keep me informed of anything and everything. They don't care that I call or text to check in on my babies. They actually welcome it. They are definitely extended family and trust them to care for my babies more than anyone could understand. They go above and beyond and create a loving environment for my pups. I wouldn't dare leave them with anyone else. Their hearts are huge and it spills out into their care and love for animals. Love love love them!!!
Boarded my dog here for 4 days. The owners were wonderful and super friendly. The best I've felt leaving my dog for boarding due to them. They're super knowledgeable with shepherds which also very comforting
This was our first time bringing our dog here and when we came to pick him up his harness was ripped up and they also told us that they spilled the bag of dog food we bought . So the harness and dog food out of our pockets were wasted. Wouldn’t recommend and will not be bringing our dog back here again .
We boarded our two huskies here for a long holiday weekend. I felt very comfortable leaving them here knowing they were going to be outside often and had people on-site if anything was needed! We usually use rover but I will definitely be bringing our pups back here whenever we can.
I adopted a dog from the shelter who developed seizures and had a few other medical problems. Hometown K9 was absolutely incredible through it all. You’ll never find a better/safer/more loving place for your pup. Thank you guys ♥️
We love Erin! Hometown K9 is by far the best in town, and we always feel comfortable leaving our pup here for daycare. The dogs get tons of playtime and loves. Erin even occasionally sends us videos of our pup during the day! Couldn’t recommend this place more!
