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.

It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
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.
Jeanne is a repeat pet sitter for us. She is wonderful and takes great care or our cats and our home. We have peace of mind when we travel knowing our kitties are under her care.
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.
Florence was a great sitter for my cat Lily. I booked her a bit last minute, as a previous sitter had to cancel, but was very happy to have her. She was reliable, prompt to respond, and sent picture updates daily at my request. Judging by the pics, Lily warmed up to her nicely and they spent some lounging time together - which is high praise from a cat! Would recommend Florence for your next sit.
Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
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!
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
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 $ per visit, $19/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 pup loves daycare! She has such a fun time playing with the other dogs. I get a sense from all the employees that they genuinely care about all the animals. Whenever I pick BB up they always tell me little things about her day- what she did and who she played with and it makes me happy. On Halloween Brittany even made personalized treat bags with homemade cookies for every dog that was there that day. They really go the extra mile.
I’m sorry I didn’t know I left this review. It looks like I just hit one and I never commented me doing the one star and posting that was an accident star and I never commented. I’m so sorry. I do not know my way around the on the phone to do very much on it except just make calls and texts and look up stuff. And here in this video one night when Lucky has been outside and he has stayed in the yard and he has listened and Marley’s really good about it too in Waze lucky is chewing on a bull stick right there around the corner where he lays does walk out of view of camera For a minute, but not out of the yard
MickSparkins Pet Care has taken such good care of our Boxer during boarding! They were communicative, kind, & understanding of his individual needs. 10/10 recommend!
This place has gone above and beyond my expectations for a Day-Care! The stafe is amazing and you can truly tell they care about the well being of thier clients. I'm extremely satisfied with the services they provide and would recommend them to anyone.
Absolutely love this place! They're so friendly and helpful! Loki was the sweetest little rescue with absolutely NO manners when we got him and the proper training made the world of difference in such a short time! He's now not only the sweetest little guy, but also the bestest boy who loves to listen!
Violet loves going to doggy daycare! She loves seeing her human and dog friends. They take such good care of her!
I’ve been taking my dog to MickSparkins for day care for almost 2 years. They take great care of her, have a variety of activities and play groups, and give her downtime so she doesn’t get overly tired. She loves going and loves the staff!
My dog Scout has been enjoying MickSparkins daycare for almost a year now. We both have loved getting to know all of the staff and consider them all friends. They love and treat Scout like he is family and that makes me happy. I recommend the daycare and boarding to every dog owner I talk to. The staff is highly qualified and are continuously learning new techniques and methods to provide top notch care and training for the dogs. Scout is always happy to be dropped off each morning and I know he has had the best day with all his friends when I pick him up.
MickSparkins is an absolutely great place for your four-legged fur baby. The staff is in love with all the dogs, and the care they give to them shows. My dog loves going there for daycare, and his boarding experience was outstanding. And don't forget the grooming! He is a sharp looking pup, thanks to the care taken by MickSparkin's resident groomer. Add in the training available, and the trips to the park, and it is doggie heaven. Hugs to all the staff that makes MickSparkins a great place!
I had been looking for a reliable, knowledgeable and caring trainer for our family’s new Doxie. We were actually referred to MickSparkins by another trainer who highly recommended them. Our boy has been in group classes and boarding while we were on vacation, and there’s no where else we’d ever take our pets! I am so glad we followed the recommendation for MickSparkins Pet Care!
Ginny is the absolute best! We left our girl for the first time, and High Hope Farm would be our first & only choice if we have to leave her again.Anytime I wanted to check in she happily updated me. Our girl has separation anxiety and needed medication, and Ginny took care of everything perfectly. I would recommend her to anyone with fur babies!
I've left my Blossom with Ginny twice now. Once for a month due to a family emergency, and just picked her up yesterday from a week long vacation. Ginny sends me videos of Blossom interacting with her own dogs and regularly sends text updates! I feel safe leaving my old puppers at High Hope Farm. Will not leave her anywhere else.
Ginny is absolutely terrific with her own dogs and LOVES to care for others!! She doesn’t just place them in a kennel and forget them, she lets them have outdoor fun time through the day! If you need someone to care for your dog, she’s it!!!! I highly recommend!!!
Ginny is absolutely amazing! Our dog Goldiepaws loves going to play with all her friends and literally runs inside from the car every time! We recommend Ginny and High Hope Farm and Pet Sitting to anyone with a dog who wants them to be treated like family whether it be just for daycare or while you are away on vacation! Can’t say enough nice things!
Our dogs LOVE going to stay with Miss Ginny! They start getting excited and chirping as soon as we turn onto her road. We have absolutely zero worry when we board at High Hope Farm and are so appreciative to have a place for them when we travel knowing they're taken care of, safe and loved.
My dog LOVES it here. Ginny is super great with her, and very communicative. The dogs actually get to run around and play with each other most of the day, rather than being in a kennel. Great place!
I would never leave my dog with anyone but Ginny! She goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is always taken care of. My dog has a blast with her and always comes back happy and tired. I will always recommend High Hopes!!
Ginny is amazing! Our fur babies LOVE visiting and she cares for them like her own. She has our 100 percent trust!
Me Ginny loves our lab Chaco! He gets so excited when we mention her name. Ginny is great to send pictures and videos while we are away.
Ginny loves animals and it shows! She takes great care of our dogs!
We had a great experience at the Pooch Resort! Our dog was well taken care of while we were away and did not seem anxious at all when we came to pick her up. Our pup is a little more shy with other dogs and the owner made sure to match her with a playmate that played well together with her. We will definitely be back! Thank you Pooch Resort.
We would never use anyone else when we need someone to watch our 4 legged family members. Not only are they kept in wonderful shape and loved just like there own. There is pictures either daily or every other day where you can see them. Will continue to use them anytime we need a safe place for our fur baby.
Originally boarded our dog here during vacation & then it became our regular groomer as well. They do a great job with our lab mix & we always get compliments on his coat. During boarding they always post pictures daily & send pictures/updates whenever asked & never get annoyed. We do weekends sometimes & every time we need a week or longer for vacation. Our dog never is scared or anxious to go & has even made a best doggy friend he loves to play with when he’s there. Would definitely recommend! They’re wonderful & their communication is always great.
Great experience with pooch resort! They took great care of our dogs and posted pictures daily. Great communication and answered any and all questions we had. Will definitely be using them again.
I have had my dogs here twice now, both times for long vacations we were gone on. At their second stay at check in, she remembered details about each of my boys without me even having to say any kind of reminder, if I called or emailed to check in, I was responded to immediately and both my boys were always happy and healthy when I came back for them. Definitely recommend!
This is our third time visiting Poochs Resort. The first time I called them, they answered the phone!!! We used to go to Petco, but their pricing was inconsistent, and they hardly ever answered their phones. We tried another local place and they let the phone go to voice-mail. Poochs resort has gone above and beyond our expectations. The groomer does a fantastic job with our poodle, who can be a little difficult at times to groom. Our golden absolutely loves going there, too. They ran in today and acted like they owned the place. They always fought me when I took them to petco. Thank you so much for taking care of our big babies.
I have been using Pooch Resort for several years and have utilized daycare, boarding, and grooming services. They have always been kind, courteous, and professional. My Siberian Husky loves daycare, I feel peace of mind when we board him--knowing he is well cared for, and his grooming is always top notch. I highly recommend each service and know others will be just as please as I am.
I've been a loyal Pooch Resort customer for years, and I can't speak highly enough about their excellent dog boarding and daycare services. The facility is top-notch, and the staff's genuine love for animals truly shines through in the exceptional care they provide for my fur baby. Thank you, Pooch Resort, for being a home away from home for my beloved Coco!
We have boarded our dog Thor many times in California. We moved here January of this year. We had the hardest time finding some where that would board him and Loki (our newest addition that had never been boarded) separate from other dogs. Then we found Pooch Resort. They assured us they were not free range at night. They were polite, understanding of our concerns about leaving our dogs at a new place and answered all questions promptly. They accepted calls while we were away as often as we wanted to call and posted pictures of our boys having a good time. They made us feel comfortable with their services and we felt our dogs were safe. We will definitely be using Pooch Resorts for our future boarding. Also the groomer was amazing. She was able to trim Loki's nails which is something our vet couldn't do easily. We will be back for grooming as well.
We have stayed here twice and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Mr. B is always excited to go and extremely happy when I pick him up. He is always on FB during his stay and ALWAYS seems very happy in all his pictures. They are also very accommodating to my phone call to check on him. I would definitely recommend this facility 🦮 …
We always board our pups at the Pet Plantation. They seem to love it. When they arrive, they rush for the door. Pet Plantation is clean and the staff is very helpful and kind. I enjoy reviewing photos at the end of the day showing our pups playing.
Winston had the BEST time at his first overnight visit at The Pet Plantation. 🐶 The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, and the grooming services are very reasonable pricing wise. Boarding is only $35 a night for Winston’s size, and even with additional grooming fees it came out to much cheaper than we anticipated. We had a little scare when Winston came back with potential limping, and the staff and owner contacted us immediately to see what was going on. ( It did turn out Winston was faking it to try and make his parents feel bad for leaving him! ) I was incredibly impressed with the staffs care and knowledge on what was going on with every dog under their care. Winston is still a pup, only six months old, and we can’t wait to bring him back for more daycare and overnight services to help him become a more social little guy! I highly recommend The Pet Plantation.
My pup loves going to Pet Plantation. He gets to play both inside and outside with other dogs. I am particularly impressed with the cleanliness of the facility. My pup loves the staff. In addition to playgroup, he gets his nails trimmed while he is there. He also gets a bowl of ice cream! I'd give Pet Plantation 10 stars if I could.
We LOVE Pet Plantation! My Cavapoo, Tilly has been going to stay with Amanda and her staff for almost 3 years. We also use Chrissy for grooming. I can’t say enough about how professional but personable everyone there is. Tilly absolutely pulls on her leash to get inside and literally lays on the door for me to open it when we get there! She is always greeted warmly and when I pick her up from boarding she is always clean and relaxed! Chrissy does an amazing job and my sweet “doodle” always looks like a “doodle” after her groom. Best haircuts she’s ever had! I really can’t say enough positive things. Thank you Pet Planation for giving my best friend Tilly a safe, happy experience!
Professional and friendly! Employees love and care for our English Labrador like she was their own pet. They call her by name when she comes to stay and she is always excited to see them. Five stars for The Pet Plantation.
Our girls love The Pet Plantation. The staff is caring and kind. I highly recommend this to any pet parents. The Facebook posts with updates and pictures keep us up to date and allow us to enjoy our trips worry free.
We love the Pet Plantation! We have brought our dogs multiple times and each time we are so pleased. We have also had one of our pups get groomed while there and he smelled so nice at pick up! Staff is always friendly and they are great with communication. Our pups love their time there. Recently, one of our dogs had a medical emergency while there due to his underlying health conditions and the staff were incredibly caring and went above and beyond to make sure our pup received the most care, love, and attention. We 100% recommend them and will always be using them anytime we need a boarder or groomer. Cannot say enough good things about the staff here!
These guys seem yo be pretty great! My dog has been here twice for daycare, and seems to have so much fun each time! The people are friendly, the prices are reasonable, the rules appear to be adhered to, from what I can tell the environment is clean, and it seems a safe space for my pup. They even did a great job with his nails! My only wish would be for the installation of cameras so I can have peace of mind proof that my fur baby is having the time of his life while there. I will continue to take my fur baby to the Pet Plantation for daycare/play/socialization. They are reliable, accepting of feedback, and loving!
I've taken my dog here for overnight boarding 3 times. 2/3 times, she did not receive all of her meals. The first time she missed a meal, I went off the schedule on their website and broke her food up into 3 meals a day. When they handed me one meal, I questioned whether or not I had given too many meals. The last time we took her, she was only there one night and I had only given them 2 meals (one for drop off day dinner and then breakfast next morning.) I wrote on each bag the date and which meal, very simplified. I picked her up at the exact time I had selected for pick up and the guy handed me her "dinner" saying that "since you're here early, here's her dinner." Confused, I asked why she wasn't fed cause it was ~3pm which means she had gone hours and hours playing hard with no food. The guy showed me the feeding calendar which did not show that she was offered any food. My poor dog was starving. I had to hand feed her 1.5 cups in the car immediately and she scarfed it down (very unlike her). I still give 2 stars because all the workers I've met are so nice and because they have (what looks like, you can't tour it to be sure) such a nice facility. If you're gonna pay the price they charge, the absolute LEAST they should do, is feed the dog. I am guessing they were understaffed, but still, there is no excuse for not feeding a dog and having no explanation other than "they must have missed her or forgot. " Sadly, I will not be returning.
Xena loves being boarded here. She has the best experience with the staff and other dogs she plays with. They offer a safe and convenient facility when I need to leave her for daycare or a weekend stay.
We felt at ease leaving our doggo with Eric at Howliday Inn. He loves animals and the facility has a large yard for the dogs to play in (supervised by Eric). Our dog doesn’t play well with other dogs so Eric took her out to play by herself. The dogs have individual rooms to stay in instead of crates which we liked. We will definitely use Howliday Inn in the future!
Oliver loves going there & has fun! They all play together in the large back yard, & I know how much fun he’s having b/c when I’m missing him & reach out to check on him, Eric sends me pictures of my baby boy in action! I will always take Ollie Bear there when I need to travel w/o him!
We have always have great service and both of boys really love going to camp when we go on much needed vacations. A couple of years ago my youngest son had to have emergency surgery and Eric made room for the boys to stay while we had to go Columbus,Ohio for my son’s surgery.
They love animals and it shows. We felt like we were leaving our beloved pet in good hands. We love the camera in each room so we could check in on our pet. We shared our traumatic experiences of our previous boarding experiences an how our pet had escaped from that boarding kennel. They made us feel at ease and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. Thank you so much for helping us to have a wonderful vacation. We will be back now that we can feel comfortable leaving him.
We bring our girl here every week. She gets so excited to leave to go see her buddies. She gets play time outside and comes home so tired. We love bringing her to Howliday Inn and know she’s in good hands while we are working.
Great place to board your dogs. They genuinely love their "guests", and know ours by name. Ours are always happy to go there, and they love Eric. When we pick them up, they're always perky. Highly recommended!
My go to kennel for my two dogs. The owner is great, he knows our dogs by name. My dogs have always been happy and perky when I pick them up, compared to experiences at other kennels that leave them stressed/frazzled. I love that they have their own room and get play time outside. I can leave them toys/bones and feed with instructions without any issues. They are always more than willing to accommodate. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who wants a dog free, stress free vacation!
I boarded my Weimaraner at Howliday Inn and Suites for almost two weeks. I dreaded leaving her for so long, but the owner put me at ease; he loves animals and it shows. I felt entirely comfortable after I met with him and toured the facility before making my final decision to board my baby at Howliday. Every dog has his or her own room and window with natural light. The rooms have split doors so the dogs can look out and don't feel locked up - no cages! There is a good sized fenced-in play area outside (playtime is supervised). My vet, Dr. Sette (Hurricane Animal Hospital) recommended Howliday Inn to me and I would recommend it to anyone who needs to board their animal.
My dog appeared to have been taken care of, but I probably won't return. The runs are all equipped with cameras so I could view her. Her run was clean, but I never saw that she was taken outside. The lobby area was filthy and smelled terrible, like dirty litter boxes. Cats were running free in the lobby, and there was dog/cat hair everywhere.
Hate to give 5 stars because it will make it even harder to get my Thalia a room here. Howliday Inn is the perfect place to board or use for doggy day care. Highly recommended! Cameras in every room so you check on your baby with your cell phone.
I cannot say enough good things about Connie and Almost Home. Our dog gets to socialize with other dogs, and we know he is getting plenty of playtime. He has freedom to roam in the house similar to when he is home, and a large yard to run in. Jango loves to stay there, and he comes home exhausted from all the play. He is completely comfortable there as you can tell from his napping position! Definitely recommend.
The BEST in the Valley, without question. Would recommend to everyone. Connie goes the extra mile to give pet parents peace of mind. I love that she does a temperament assessment and takes the time to get to know the dogs before boarding. She kept me updated on my dog's wellbeing throughout his stay and even sent me pictures! We will definitely use Almost Home for all of our doggie daycare needs.
My puppy attends daycare here and loves it! The staff cuddle him, and feed him by hand when needed to make sure he eats (picky eater). They treat him as they would their own family, and it’s the only place I leave him where he doesn’t cry when I leave. He makes friends and comes home wiped out! This place really cares about their clients. I never worry when my pup is there.
Almost home is a great place to take your pups. I take my 2 huskies there and they love going there. When i tell them they are going to doggy daycare, they get so excited. I’ve taken them to daycare and also boarded them. They are so tired once they get home from playing all day. I highly recommend this doggy daycare/boarding. Connie is great with our pups. It’s definitely their favorite place to go. It’s their almost home.
My dog Boomer was boarded at Almost Home for the first time and for 10 days! Connie and her staff provided excellent care for him and helped manage his anxiety about being with other dogs. She sent pictures and texts to let me know how he was doing. Since he was timid around other dogs, she even provided space for him to sleep alone at night. I strongly recommend Almost Home and will definitely use them again for boarding or day care.
We have dropped our 2 dogs off here multiple times. Our dogs are always wagging their tales to return. If you are the type of person that would appreciate a quick text of what your dog is in to when you are gone they would be happy to oblige. You know your pups are getting lots of love and kindness when you leave them here because they typically want to give a little more attention to folks around the place before they leave. Rest assured your dogs are in good hands at Almost Heaven Doggie Daycare!
We left out our 2 dogs for the weekend. They came home happy and exhausted. We were kept up to date and any questions we had were quickly answered. We will definitely be using them again.
They took such good care of Marilyn, I received many pictures updating me on her stay, she truly loved Marilyn like her own. My pup had so much fun I could tell she played so much! I knew from the first visit that my girl would be safe and happy there. I will definitely be taking her back.
We brought our dog here while we went on vacation in July and he had an absolute blast! I got several updates throughout the week and we arranged for him to get groomed as well while we were gone. It was wonderful not having to worry about our pup!
Our three dogs love Connie and her staff at Almost Home!! Everyone is always friendly and welcoming. We know our dogs are well taken care of while we are away.
Daisy loves staying at Club Pet. They take great care of her. I highly recommend boarding your animals here.
Very hospitable and friendly staff. The facility is clean and my dogs always seem happy there. The twice a day play time helps a lot. Convenient location as well.
I'm So thankful for the staff at Club Pet. Not many places will take a Pit in, My little baby girl needed a bath aN nails done and they took her with arms wide open. Thank you Erica and staff for everything. My baby girl smelt so good for almost 2 weeks. I will definitely be back.
Wonderful caring staff. Colt used to not like getting in the expedition. Since he's returned from 2 stays at Club Pet he keeps trying to get in the expedition thinking he's going back. I'm not kidding about that. Big area for the dogs to run. It's on the expensive side for us but we'll worth it for the time we went!! I can't say enough about how the staff is, the boarding and grooming!!
Left my cats there for boarding. It was their 1st time being boarded and the staff was very helpful and nice. My boyfriend was able to pick them up for me as I was still out of town. Price was reasonable. Only thing I would change is there is no cameras in cat room for owner to view.
We’ve taken our doodle puppy there twice and both times our pup has come out looking so handsome! The groomers are absolutely wonderful and SO nice! I can’t stress that enough. My only reason not giving 5 stars is the fact that some reason it took them 3 hours extra for them to call us today & we went in to pick up our dog and the receptionist lady said he wasn’t on the schedule at all when he clearly was because we made the appointment AND he had already been cut so there must have been miscommunication somewhere, the receptionist has a bit of an attitude which I don’t enjoy BUT apart from that, the important part (the groomers and grooming) is absolutely wonderful.
Always have a great experience when boarding here. Prices are reasonable. My doggos always seem to have e a good time. I personally haven't used grooming services in years, so I can't speak to that.
After using the same boarding facility for my dogs for 14 years, I was forced to find a new place to kennel my pets due to the business closing. I searched the web for places near me, and read lots of reviews on lots of places. I had decided to give Club Pet a try, and I am glad I did. All of the staff I had come into contact with was very friendly. I had talked to Bri several times before drop off day, and she took very good care of me in reassuring me my fur babies would be taken very good care of. The day we arrived she greeted my 2 six month old Great Dane puppies with open arms and a smile on her face. She made me feel very comfortable and confident in leaving them for a few days. The facility is reasonably priced, very neat, clean, and well maintained with a nice layout. I was so pleased with the outcome of my dogs stay at Club Pet, I have already booked several more future weekend stays with them.
This place is one of the best places to board your pet in our area of Barboursville. We have had our dog Wesson there and they did great with him. We will be returning with him this month and hope for the same experience as last time. Great staff and clean facility.
Amazing staff, so caring, huge yard to run around in! They even went as far as to stay on 4th of july and blast classical music to calm the animals during fireworks! How thoughtful is that!!!!!!
I take my Shepherd/Pyrenees mix for grooming and Katelyn is the absolute best! She does such a great job with Dolly. I recently took my other dog, a boxer mix, and his coat is so shiny! He looks like a pup again! Dexter and Dolly highly recommend Club K9, especially Katelyn!
I liked this place for a long time but the last time I took my senior dog here they scraped his back so bad with clippers that's he came home covered in bloody scabs. I will NEVER go back.
I have been taking my Adult Dog (Fish) for the last 2 years and my new puppy (Chips) for about 1 month now. Awesome staff. Kind and caring for dogs that are super shy (like fish) or dogs that don't know manners yet (like chip) lol. Recommend their boarding and day care services to anyone.
Best place ever for dog grooming! Everyone that works here has always been so friendly and very sweet with our dog Coco Bear who always looks amazing after being groomed! I highly recommend bringing your pets to Club K9!
We've been taking our two dogs here the past several years for daycare and boarding (and the occasional nail trim). Love everyone who works there, and always know that our fur-babies will be taken care of and cuddled while we're away!
Club K9 is great! They are very attentive to the dogs and always greet you with a smile. When we brought our large dog to the club they made sure he was properly and slowly introduced to the staff, buildings, and other dogs. He has had a blast so far! We would recommend this doggy haven to anyone!
Their staff is friendly. Their walk-in nail trim service is very convenient and a great price. They do a good job grooming my German shepherd when he's blowing his coat.
Doggy paradise. My puppy came out looking good and smelling even better. Hats off CK9. Will be back!
I love the groomers here. They helped calm my normally nervous dog and showed him lots of love and attention! They also helped fix the huge disaster that was my furbaby's fur after the last place messed it up bad. Shelley one of the owners is an Amazing person and very sweet and helpful. I will forever take my dog to Club K9!
Always take our 4 dogs there for nail clippings. Everyone is always friendly. Would recommend.
So I’ve been taking my 2 Bichpoo dogs to a groomer for over a year & they canceled last minute. I called Pet Oasis & she was able to get both my babies in right away. What normally took 3.5 hrs for 2 dogs was shorter & it didn’t come at a cost of shabby service at all. The groomer did awesome & listen to my needs. I’m already booked for their next appointment in 6 weeks. Don’t hesitate! By the way for being a place with borders there too, it smelled amazing & clean still.
Pet Oasis is an outstanding dog grooming and boarding facility, owned by two of the most caring friends and pet owners. Their genuine love for all types of animals is evident in every aspect of their business, from the warm and welcoming staff to the comfortable and clean accommodations. The grooming services are exceptional and left my fur babies looking and smelling fabulous. The boarding kennels are large spacious areas, and there are fenced outside areas for the dogs to exercise as well with supervision. My doggie girls love this place, and I highly recommend this business to anyone looking for exceptional care for their beloved pets. I can't thank the owners and staff enough for their dedication and commitment to providing top-notch grooming and boarding services in the Hurricane/Teays Valley area!
Pet Oasis is wonderful! Very affordable and worked with us when we had to adjust the duration of our dog’s stay because we were stuck out of state due to hurricane Helene. With how crazy everything was, not having to worry about our Hannah relieved a lot of stress. We knew she was in great hands. I highly recommend them if you need a great place to board your precious fur baby!
Amazing grooming experience for our Australian shepherd here. It was affordable and they were SOOOOO nice. Plus, our dog looks beautiful. We will be back! So happy to have found the perfect place for grooming.
We are very pleased with the boarding at Pet Oasis. The facility is clean, the dogs are well cared for, and the staff stays in communication even sending daily pictures. After boarding our dogs there this month, that’s the ONLY place that we will leave them.
I want to give a shoutout to Pet Oasis in Hurricane for taking such good care of our boys while we were at the beach! Shannon messaged me every afternoon and evening to give me updates on how they were doing. She sent me pictures of them every day and even called me to double check instructions I left for them to ensure they were doing everything correctly. They treated us like family and as if the boys were their own! They accommodated their every need and it really eased our minds to know they were in great hands. Please check them out if you’re in need of dog boarding! The registration process was easy and convenient! We will definitely be using them again in the future! 🐾🖤
Pet Oasis in Hurricane provides grooming services for my 3 furbabies. Shannon always works with my schedule for appointments and takes great care of Casey, Tony and Sonny. They look amazing afterwards and smell so good. Bonus, their prices are so reasonable. I highly recommend Pet Oasis. ❤️🐾🐾🐾 …
Lucky Dog K9 was professional, clean and thorough in their intake process. They made my first experience getting a dog groomed one to remember! My golden doodle has never felt so soft, her cut was perfect and her nails felt like they weren’t even there. They put bows in her hair at no extra charge and she looked awesome and slept so good that night. lol thank you all again, we will be back 🩷🐾
Highly recommend for boarding and grooming. Have a nervous dog that no other local companies would work with, but they’ve done great with him. He’s bonded with the owner Shannon and I’ve been able to drop him off for boarding and grooming. Thankful that they gave our boy a chance and I don’t have to worry about him when we go out of town. Give Lucky Dog a chance, you won’t be disappointed!
I brought my 8 month old Golden here and she did so well with him! He looks so good and the quality of care this facility provides is unbeatable. ❤️ It doesn’t get better than a content pup!
My girl, Abby, is 16 years old. We have taken her to Tails R Us for grooming for several years. In the last year, grooming wears her out but the staff take such great care of my girl. They are patient and allow her to take breaks. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my girl’s care.
Our dog is very very anxious. Hates car rides, hard floors, new places, etc. It took her a couple days to warm up to being there but we loved watching her on video the whole time we were on vacation! They were so sweet with her and she didn't want to leave when it was time to come home.
I've had my Bella there 3 times, two for grooming and once for a nail trim. I live this place. They are so kind to the animals. In Aug we will be taking Bella there for doggie day care and I trust them completely to take great care of her. Thank you all for what you do!
Super cute environment with amazingly helpful staff. Gave my 2 cats a place to stay in a pinch before the holidays. They do have cameras with an app you can log into and look at your babies ANYTIME, which is super nice considering I am a super hands on cat mom. My cats stayed here half day and they abided by all special instructions because one of these guys is special needs. The reason for 4/5 stars is because for the half day, I never once saw my cats on the cameras unfortunately. I will definitely give it another try though and possibly change my rating, just because these guys know what they're doing. Thanks Tails R Us.
Took my poodle there and because they could not finish her ears I was not charged. That kind of honesty and professionalism is refreshing. My dog loved the staff. I will never take my dog anywhere else but here. 10/10.
Tails R Us is an outstanding dog daycare, grooming, and boarding facility, owned by two of the most caring and loving friends and pet owners I know - Maricris and Scott Miller. Their genuine love for animals is evident in every aspect of their business, from the warm and welcoming staff to the comfortable and clean accommodations. The spacious daycare area has separate dog playgrounds for small and large dogs to keep them entertained, while the grooming services left them looking and smelling fabulous. As for boarding, I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog was treated like family and in the best hands. My dog Cosmo loves this place, and I highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for exceptional care for their beloved pets. I can't thank the owners and staff enough for their dedication and commitment to providing top-notch service.
Was a little leery taking our dogs for grooming since they had never been before. They did great with our girls! Am so excited to have a nice clean place close to home to take them. Many thanks for all the TLC you gave♥️
Just got my Oliver groomed today for the first time, they did a lovely job. Staff was amazingly nice. He can be a difficult pup but they did well with him. Well worth the $90.
We just went in for a nail trim this visit, but we were very impressed. The staff was very friendly and efficient. We had a lot of questions about daycare and boarding, and they were very easy to talk to and professional. I will definitely be back.
Amazing job every time with my golden doodle. I know he’s a handful
Zeppelin LOVES going to Tin Woof Inn! He gets so excited when we make the turn off of 60, that once we finally pull into the parking lot he is ready to drag me inside. I’m so glad to have somewhere that takes such good care of my big boy when I’m not able to. My husband and I are very thankful for everyone there treating our zeppy like their own.
Wish I could give zero stars. My dogs came home covered in urine and feces after a week stay while I was on vacation. I was given excuse after excuse with the only offer of $25 off a $100 groom. While the staff was kind, that does not excuse the condition my animals were in. My dog has horrible chemical burn on her butt from having urine and poop literally caked on her for, god only knows, how long. I’ve seen how snarky and passive aggressive the owner has been on these reviews, so I’m aware they’ll be some excuse since I’m unable to reply back. Just know, if you bring your animal here, they’ll likely be in a kennel the entire time covered in poop and pee. I also see that several comments from the owner states the clients can’t be located in the system. So, I’m sure that’s a possible reply as well.
Hands down, Uhtred loved them, and they were great with him! Other groomers were a little testy because he's so hyper, but not here. He let them do whatever needed to be done. I will definitely be back!
Our mini bernedoodle (Molly Rose) loves this place! We were going on vacation and had to board her so I took her to Tin Woof Inn for a few days of doggie daycare to meet the people and see how she would do. She did fine so the following week we boarded her while going on vacation. The staff always make her so welcome and she loves them and playing with all the other dogs! Now, when we take her she gets so excited to be there!! This will definitely be her home away from home from now on. They also have a great line of premium pet foods, snacks, toys, etc.. at reasonable prices. It’s a little far to go but worth the drive. Give them a try. They will take great care of your dog(s) and/or cat(s)❤️
My dogs absolutely love it here! The staff is friendly and are efficient with handling all types of animals and if I ever go out of town I know my dogs are taken care of by some of the best people here. Thanks for letting me count on y'all.
This was the first time we needed any boarding services for our pets and this place was Amazing! They took such great care of Gigi and she was so happy to see us when we picked her up. But she was very happy to see all the workers as well. Being so excited to see them showed me that they were extremely good to her. Would definitely recommend. Will most likely be returning for future services. Thank you Tin Woof!
This review is for the Dock Dogs class that the Tin Woof Inn facilitates. The introduction night was truly a disgrace. Highly disappointing. There was no actual education or wisdom. The trainers showed an embarrassing lack of knowledge about dog body language and behavior. Almost every dog was nervous or fearful and yet they were still pulled toward the pool on leash, even while clawing to get away or frozen with fear. Acclimation to the pool could have been done in a huge variety of humane and skillful ways. Instead, dogs were pressured and forced. It was painful to watch. Do better.
I have used them three times. Two of them times no complaints. This time both my dogs came home with kennel cough and so sick. I took them to the vet and was told by people in the waiting room that their dogs came home sick from there as well. Don’t know if they are not cleaning good there or what, it cost to much to have them stay there then come home sick and have to pay a high vet bill cause they can’t stop coughing and are so sick.
I love bringing Sadie Mae out here when my husband and I go on trips. I highly recommend boarding your pets here. The staff is super nice!!!😊 …
Tin Woof Inn is the only place we will leave Katie. The girls working there need a raise in pay because they are loving and caring people.
