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.
Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
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.
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.

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 within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. 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. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, $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!
We brought our two great Danes to doggy woods a couple times now. The second time, we went on vacation and left them for 12 days. One of the things we love the most are not only the people running the center, but the way they run it. Open boarding in their home and open free walk times along their acreage with all the other dogs. It’s wonderful how they post videos daily of your dogs experiences. I would definitely recommend not only doggy daycare but overnight boarding for your furry babies. Maverick and Riley will be returning to go visit all the friends they made. Family owned and operated in their home with love and compassion, definitely! 🐾💙
I’m a long time friend of Josh and Colette’s. They have always been huge animal lovers and have been interested in and in tune with animal behavior for many years, so this is the perfect career for them! I’m so excited to be able to use their services at Doggy Woods for Grady, a German shepherd I’ve been helping to care for. He had a great time meeting the pack in a safe and controlled manner, and had absolute blast getting to run around in the woods with his new pack friends on a pack walk. He is a very social and athletic dog who is used to a lot of exercise, so this will be an amazing environment for him since he will have an outlet for both of those things. So thankful for Josh and Colette and their amazing property that had become Doggy Woods.
Doggy Woods is an amazing dog retreat! Our dog Milo absolutely loves it there. We recently boarded him for 2 weeks. He had a blast! They took him on 2 nature walks a day and would post videos of each walk so I could see him if I wanted. They offer great add ons to make it a very personalized experience. We will definitely be bringing him back! Thank you Doggy Woods, you help ease our minds while we are away!
This place is wonderful, and discovering it has been a real blessing for us! We have two dogs, a 14 year old going blind and deaf, and a puppy maybe a year old who was a stray we’d only found about a month earlier. He wasn’t well socialized, or well behaved! The folks at Doggy Woods were so accommodating, and accepting of our dog’s limitations and peculiarities. After their first stay of 4 nights, they came home like different dogs. Our Senior was acting younger, and our puppy was more chill, and much better behaved! And both of them slept like rocks for hours! We’ve been traveling a lot, and we feel so comfortable with the staff and facilities at Doggy Woods, that we’ve boarded 12 nights in a month with a few daycare days as well! Drop offs and pickups are always super smooth. We appreciate the photos they share, the updates, and especially watching the videos on their Facebook page. We plan to continue bringing our dogs there for boarding and daycare. We know it’s the right place, because our dogs get so excited every time we enter their driveway!
I can’t say enough good things about Doggy Woods! I know my girl is in the best hands possible and having the best time with Colette and Joshua. I trust them whole heartedly and they really do understand dogs individual needs. My girl always comes home happy and exhausted because her needs have been met ❤️. I feel very confident in leaving her with them for day care and boarding. Can’t recommend them enough!
Colette and Josh are awesome! Doggy Woods Retreat is a wonderful place and our dog, Cheesecake, comes home happy and tired every time. We love this place so much that we are willing to drive an hour+ each way rather than find something closer, just because she's so happy here and we trust them. I can't recommend them enough!!
Our 2 year English bull terrier had a great 10 day vacation at Doggy Woods! We were kept up-to-date with daily with videos on Facebook of their daily walks, as well as pictures through text messages. This is the first boarding business that I felt at ease throughout our entire vacation, even halfway across the world. Our dog look like she made herself at home very quickly and was excited for daily cuddles with the humans. She even got a bath before we picked her up! Doggy Woods is our go to place now for doggy care. Nolzy can’t wait to go back and make new friends! 🐶
Colette and Will were absolutely amazing with our three girls. They have excellent insight to dog behavior with their years of experience with all types of dogs. They were a last minute find for us and really helped us out in a pinch. We can’t believe how lucky we were to find them. The dogs came home exhausted from their fun stay at Doggy Woods. We got several pictures and updates through their stay. Can’t recommend them enough.
Cannot recommend this place enough! My husband and I have been dropping off our two dogs at Doggy Woods off and on now for just over a year and they ALWAYS come back happy and exhausted from long days of fun with the pack! While my husband and I are on vacation, Doggy Woods posts pictures of them on their Facebook page so we know they’re having a blast! Makes leaving a little easier on us. They go on daily walks and are always loved while there! It’s their own home away from home! Wouldn’t trust anyone else with my best friends!! Added some pictures of my best buddies that they posted on their Facebook page. Makes my heart happy!!
We brought our dog here for the first time and he stayed with them for a few days. He had so much fun!! There is so much land for them to play around on. The owners were incredibly kind, responsive, and you can tell they really love and care for all animals. I never worried about the safety or care of our dog while there. 10/10 recommend bringing your fur babies here - it’s a vacation for them! Will definitely be bringing our dog back :)
Kate watched both my dog (Todd) and my sister’s dog (Lenny) at my home over a long holiday weekend. Both being labradoodles, they are energetic and can be a handful. Not only was she able to provide updates and photos each day, she handled them with amazing skill. We came home to a clean house and two very happy pups. I will definitely use her services again, and would highly recommend her to other family and friends!
Kate is simply the best. We trust our Charlie girl with her and know that she cares about Charlie as much as we do. It makes me so happy and relieved to know that Charlie has a sitter who loves her so much and takes such great care of her when we can't be with her. Kate takes her on hour long walks and takes photos of her every time for us. The best part is that Charlie is smiling in all of them! I would highly recommend Kate and I'm so glad we found her!
My wife and I found Kate & Wagnolia thru Google, after our sitter-at-the-time found another job. She's been great with our energetic (handful) Doberman puppy and adult English Setter. Appreciate her text updates and flexibility with our family's schedule. Thankful for all of her help!
The owners are friendly to us and our dogs. They are more attentive than other dog boarding companies and took very good care of our 8 month puppy who is still learning to be social. The owners updated us with a video of our dogs every day while we were traveling.
This was our pup's first time being boarded, so we were a little nervous. Kate came highly recommended. I knew when I dropped our pup off, he was in good hands! I got daily photos and/or videos, he looked so happy, and that helped us enjoy our vacation. Glad to have found trusted, high quality care for our dog. We will definitely use Magnolia again!
Kate is amazing with my senior bulldog, Gigi. I travel extensively for work and I leave knowing that Gigi is well cared for and given lots of love. Kate is very responsive to texts and I appreciate all her pictures of my pup while I am gone. Quite simply you will find no better sitter in the area, I highly recommend Kate!
We recently found Wagnolia Petsitting and are so grateful. Kate has been absolutely wonderful taking care of our dog and cat. We always feel comfortable leaving our fur babies with her. We get so many cute pictures and our pets are always happy.
Kate takes great care of our two dogs when we are out of town. She sends us updates and is quick to respond to us if we have any questions. It feels great to not have to worry about our dogs when we are away. Definitely recommend Wagnolia!
I would only trust Wagnolia with my pets! My dogs love Kate and her team! It’s the best feeling when you have to leave your animals with someone that you LOVE and your pets LOVE even more! Thank you for taking such good care of our babies and treating them like they are your own! I would recommend Wagnolia 100%. Hank and Kathy love you guys!
Kate is an excellent sitter. We’ve know her for 2 years now. Our two dogs (one elderly, one young) and cat all love her! She is super responsible and an excellent caretaker. We contact her first when we are looking for care needs!
Terrible place... If i could have given less than 1 star, I would have. We boarded our dog on the 19th Dec and picked her up on the 23rd. We had already informed the team that she is not good with all dogs. They assured us they would try slow introductions and if it doesn't work out she would get individual playtime/walks (for which we obviously had prepaid extra). The day we pick her up she was a different dog completely. Her usually happy behaviors were all gone. We thought may be she was just very well tired out and needed some time to recover. We asked at the reception how the boarding went and they assured us that she had a perfect score and it went all fine. Our interaction there with our dog was just receive her from the staff there, put her in the car and immediately drive back home. As soon as she reached home we notice a huge and deep gash on her bum with blood pooling inside. We immediately call CCCC and whoever picked up says oh yes she got into an altercation with a dog on the 20th and had been bitten by that dog. They apparently checked her for injuries. Mind you, this was the 23rd when we had picked her up. My poor dog did not get any medical attention for 2 whole days. And if we would have left her there any longer she would not have gotten any attention for that entire time as well. She could have had sepsis and things could have taken an awfully wrong turn. I beleive the staff at CCCC is not to be trusted. They did not even care to notice a huge gash on our dog. She is a malamute and she has a lot of fur, but that wound was so easily visible that unless they interacted with their eyes closed, there is no chance a person would miss noticing that wound. I also noticed someone in the reviews mentioning that only half the food of what might have been measured was fed to the dogs. I noticed that too as well. I stronly urge CCCC to hire competent staff, because this is beyond outrageous.
Took my perfectly healthy happy dog there, he was there for two nights and now he is not the same dog I dropped off. He's skinny, they only gave him half the amount of food I sent with him that I had measured out prior to bringing him. And he came out limping and they said nothing about it when I asked them about it they acted like he got it on the walk out then claimed it was from being in the water at play time. We live by a river that he swims in everyday so that’s certainly not what happened, his entire paw is swollen and he can’t even step on it. He looks and acts absolutely traumatized and malnourished. I never leave reviews like this but when it comes to what I consider my child I will prevent it from happening to someone else’s. Will be hiring a pet sitter next time.
I had a fantastic experience at Canine Country Club and Cattery during my first visit! The staff was friendly and genuinely cared for my dog, making us feel completely at ease. The facility was clean and well-organized. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable and caring dog daycare!
We were so nervous to board our 2-year-old bubs for the first time. We had never been away from them. The staff is so wonderful, so kind and patient with us when we called every morning to check on them. Our boys loved it there, they were able to socialize and play with other dogs and we will be taking them there for daycare. Such a great place to take our dogs with peace of mind that they are adored and cared for so well.
My dog seemed to love it and was very happy dropping off and when I picked him up. And they didn't seem bothered at all when I called to check up on him Update: it's been almost two years since I brought my dogs in! They stayed for 7 days this time! My one dog is very skittish and not a people lover. They both did great! They seemed to be well taken care of! They did walks everyday and I was able to call for updates. I was so nervous dropping my younger dog off but now I think I will be ok next time they go!
Phenomenal group of folks here. Our dog Nakita now gets so excited when she's realizing where she's going! They take care to report on anything that occurs during the stay which just lends to a peace of mind you won't get anywhere else. And when Nakita sees any of the staff she's instantly happy and excited to see them. Ten stars if I could!
I have used canine country club a few different times and I have always been happy with their service. The pups seem to be excited when we drop them off and they are always happy and normal when they come home. Highly recommend. Good pricing too. I like that they offer walks and play time.
Been going here for years! Took my pup there for a weekend, no worries about him...I think I needed a kennel too. They treat my dogs like gold!!
Our dogs always have a great time. Staff are friendly and helpful. We love knowing our dogs are safe and well cared for.
Very nice people. My dog loves coming here and is always excited to go. Rates are good, and I feel they take good care of my dog. Hours could be longer but are adequate to work an 8 hour day with an hour commute each way.
Erik has taken excellent care of our large greyhound since we adopted our pup in March. Greyhounds can be shy and aloof to strangers, but Erik seems to have a natural intuition in engaging with my dog; this is evident during our first meeting, and our boy has maintained a bond with Erik ever since. My significant other and I both have highly demanding jobs, and Erik has been blessing to us especially in caring for our energetic boy both during the day and sometimes overnight home stays. He pays great attention to details, has been flexible with scheduling, and always provide timely updates to let us know how our dog is doing. I knew our pup was in great hands when we arranged a week-long overnight stay with Erik. We have been incredibly pleased with how professional, communicative, and passionate Erik is about taking care of our pup.
Erik is GREAT. My little pup really looks forward to her walks with Erik.
One of the most compassionate and experienced person that I have ever met. Harley (my doggie) looks for Eric on the weekends. He truly is the animal whisperer. This is Harley the Great Dane
Erik does great with our German Shepherd puppy! He is reliable and trustworthy. We never have any concerns about our baby or the house when Erik is coming in and out. I have and will continue to recommend his services. I especially appreciate the pics he sends when he is there with her-it helps to see her so happy!
I love Erik and have been using him for years. We had a new rescue this year and even on the first visit he quickly acclimatised even though he was nervous with men specifically. I never have any doubts leaving my dogs with Erik.
Erik has helped me take care of my pet Blue and Gold Macaw and our family cat off and on for the past three years. He has been very reliable and trustworthy! We had long vacations where he needed to help us daily and he made friends with our very shy cat and was able to tend our parrot making our vacation worry free. Thank you Erik for your service!
Erik has watched our two cats twice now. Both times for four days. One of our cats has asthma and needs an inhaler. Erik has been able to give her this medication with ease and we are so grateful! We have been so impressed with this service. He is prompt and kind. Very communicative. The price is extremely reasonable. This most recent trip, we accidentally got the days wrong and he was able to accommodate! The cats really like him. Professionalism is at a 10! We will definitely hire him whenever we’re out of town and we recommend him to anyone!
My dogs love Erik! The are full of excitement when they see him arrive. He is very dependable and professional! I have two high energy dogs that Erik handles with ease. I highly recommend him!
We highly recommend Erik (Crazy Dog Man) for pet sitting. We have a large black lab/pit bull/Great Dane mix (Harley) that is a rescue, abused as a pup many years ago. He is therefore apprehensive around new people and takes awhile to gain trust. When Harley met Erik earlier this year, he took to him right away. Erik respects and understands Harley and his needs, especially now that he is a senior dog and has health issues. Erik stays at our house when we are on vacation and the occasional weekend, and provides Harley with exceptional care, including all his medications. Erik is definitely in tune with dogs, no matter their size.
Erik is very capable, conscientious and caring. My three horses and one donkey can be a handful but Erik handled them beautifully. He also did a great job of keeping their stalls, paddock and arena clean. I have recommended him to my friends, because they know I’m very particular about the quality of my pet family’s care. Erik provides that level of care!
Steve and Kerri are great and we love Adventure Dog Ranch! We have taken our German Shepherd to boarding here since he was just a little guy and eligible for boarding (needed to finish his vaccines). We wanted to get him used to boarding from an early age and we couldn’t think of a better option than adventure dog ranch. He gets so excited every time we pull in. They are great people who care about your animal. We have even done a board and train with them. We have only and will continue to take our pup here for boarding. We love that our pup gets to play and be an adventure dog at the ranch. They are very professional and take your dogs safety seriously by making sure they are up to date on their vaccines and putting them with dogs that they find fit best based on personality. They are kind, flexible, caring and we feel relieved to have a safe and fun place to take our dog. When we go out of town/on vacation we can trust our pup will be taken care of and have his needs met. We can enjoy ourselves while knowing our dog is doing the same! :)
We are so thankful to have the Adventure Dog Ranch for their boarding services! Kerri and Steve have been watching our Theo for years now. We have quite the energetic herding dog, so we’re very grateful that Theo gets to play outside all day and isn’t in a kennel like many other boarding places. We make the trip to Marysville (from Seattle) because we’ve trusted the care at Adventure Dog ranch. Theo is always excited to see Kerri and Steve during drop off and I know they really care for the dogs. Highly recommend!
Our dogs had a great time with Kerri and Steve at daycare. Lots of room to play, and lots of love!
Our dogs LOVE Steve and Kerri! As soon as we turn down the road they are so excited and can't wait to get in there. We love that our dogs get to play all day long - we have a black lab and golden retriever and our golden relies so much on the black lab (she is blind in one eye), who loves to play and socialize! Steve and Kerri have worked with them while at boarding so now our golden has become way more friendly and doesn't need to rely on our black lab as much! The best part is we are always able to enjoy our vacation because we know our babies are well taken care of and having so much fun! Highly recommend them!
Steve and Carrie are amazing dog people. I have been taking my dog here for years, and not only do they treat your dog as their own, but they are both well versed in dog language and are excellent pack leaders. I love that they live on-site and are always present to care for the dogs. I feel very safe in taking my dog there because she's my baby and want her to be well attended. If you're looking for your dog to have a great time, while also having their needs met and having someone look over them 24/7, this is the place. Adventure Dog Ranch is the only place I'll ever board my dog, despite the extra drive.
Kerri and Steve put dogs first and want them to have be comfortable and have fun while there. I really appreciate that mindset. While other large dog ranched just take any dog, these guys are particular about an evaluation and a first free day. They make it a point to get to know your dog. I am impressed with their attitude. The first time I went it was before a long weekend and they are pretty honest about it and rejected my business. Their argument was there are too many dogs we cannot spend time getting Jilly (our dog) comfortable with this pack. So lets wait and do a 1 day free day care on a weekday and once the dog and us are mutually comfortable you can leave here for overnight boarding. I did exactly that and now Jilly is happy and tired when she goes there. The only problem is the distance. I live in Redmond and its a 1 hour drive one way to get to the ranch. Its a total of 4 hours for 1 day care. So day care just plain does not work. It would certainly work for more than a couple of nights of boarding.
We have a 7 month old puppy who was jumping up on our young children and my husband and I. He was destroying furniture, remote controls, mobile phones, basically anything he could get his paws on. We weren't able to take him for walks to work out the puppy energy because he would totally freeze up when we'd put a leash on him. But we were determined to keep him as he's a part of our family. We decided to have him boarded and trained by professionals. We chose Adventure Dog Ranch based on their outstanding reviews and reasonable prices. Our pup was with Adventure Dog Ranch for 13 days/12 nights, doing their blended board and train program. I'm happy to say he is a brand new dog! He sits and stays on command, can walk on a leash without trying to pull his humans along, and he doesn't jump up on adults nor on children anymore. I can't say enough about Adventure Dog Ranch. We plan to return our pup to them in the future for additional, more advanced training. They are flexible, reasonably priced professionals! A small family-owned and operated business. We highly recommend Adventure Dog Ranch!!!
After extensive research, we landed at this boarding facility due to word of mouth and their highly rated reviews on google. Unfortunately, our horrific experience led us here in hopes to warn others. Upon our initial “meet and greet”, the owners Steve and Carrie seemed like nice dog people. The facility itself seemed a bit run down, but we were willing to give it a try. When it came time to drop drop our 1 1/2 year old dog off to stay for multiple nights, I let Carrie know that he gets anxious sometimes in kennels and to give him his prescription medication IF needed. She proceeded to tell me that she doesn’t believe in medicating dogs, so I gave her the alternative which were canine approved CBD gummies that we rarely give our dog, but keep on hand just in case. For reference, there have only been two instances where we’ve given him 1 gummy and it helped calm him down. Fast forward to picking up our dog 6 days later, and he was completely lethargic with absolutely no energy. Carrie said because he had “too much energy for her elderly group of dogs” she gave him TWO gummies DAILY. Now had she read the directions and our dogs application (where it states his weight), she would have known that for a dog who weighs 45 pounds the recommended dose was one gummy. The sad part was that he had to suffer an overdose of CBD all because he had “too much energy” for her group of dogs at the time of boarding which was NOT what we had told her the gummies were to be used for. Then the nightmare came. After the first night and whole first day of bringing our dog home, he continued to be lethargic and not like his usual self. On the second day, he woke up and began vomiting 7 times within the hour. We were finally able to get him into his regular vet who ran multiple tests, luckily to find out he was okay, but said he could have very well overdosed and was most likely dehydrated because of the amount of gummies that were given. We let Carrie know that this had happened to hopefully prevent her from doing this to another poor dog in the future, but were only told sorry and were left with unexpected vet bills and a very ill dog. Please please please, save yourself a potential nightmare and board your dog elsewhere.
For a company sporting a website straight out of the early 00's, they sure do have a high opinion of themselves. All reputable boarding facilities require rabies and DHPP with the more discerning also requiring Kennel Cough and I think that's fantastic. Most also require an evaluation before hand which I also approve of... But I have yet to find another boarding facility that requires your dog to be ordained by the pope himself to even get an audience with the staff. I would like to shake hands with the one dog immaculate enough to gain entry into these hallowed grounds.
Thank you so much for caring for our dogs when we are gone. At this doggie care the dogs get to play in large fenced areas most of the day. We will always be taking our beloved pooches here. Thank you Adventure Dog ranch.
My dog Mac absolutely LOVES coming here! The staff are always so friendly and give great updates on how he did when I come to pick him up. As a very anxious owner I was worried about bringing him here since he hadn't done daycare before and he’s a pretty big dog, which not everyone loves, but now the whole house looks forward to his daycare days. The photos they post throughout the day are so fun, and by the way he immediately falls asleep in the car on the way home I know he always has a blast! You can tell the people who work here really love dogs.
Thank you for taking care of our Aspen! She loves her daycare and boarding here. We appreciate the Facebook posts and look forward to seeing her in the pictures during her stay. Aspen loves it here! She is a nervous dog who has been brought out of her shell at Pampered Pets. Thank you to the hard working and attentive staff who take care of her. We appreciate you.
I love sending my Rolly Crump to day care and boarding here. The staff cares and loves each and every furry friend that visits. They take special care to sort your dog and place them in a yard/group that matches their temperament. The best feeling is pulling up to pick up your pup and seeing your dog have the time of their life. Their prices are just recently went up $10 for boarding, still very very good deal if you check prices around from other boarding. Check out their Facebook to see how happy all the pups are, they take pictures everyday so you can get a glimpse of the adventures your dog is having. My mini Bernedoodle comes home happy and exhausted every time! I would highly recommend them!
My dog(s) come here every weekend to play and they LOVE it. I feel like they are being well taken care of and watched over. The gals in the front office are always very helpful and friendly, and often post many pictures of the dogs during their stay there. They have separate play areas for large/small dogs as well as indoor/outdoor spaces (some covered and shaded, too), and day care playtime is all day! Grooming is also available (currently I think only on weekends by appointment). They keep everything clean all day (special faux grass in the play areas) and are attentive to the dogs' feeding schedules, interactions with one another, and temperaments. We love it, and hopefully my dogs will continue to come here to play with friends, or stay overnight when we go out of town, forever! 😄 [I only posted pics of my dogs since I didn't have other owners' permission, but usually there are always many dogs all playing together and having a blast!]
Used to really enjoy coming here, but they keep raising prices astronomically. Now costs $180 for one night of boarding and daycare for 2 dogs in a shared kennel. Same service less than one year ago was $130. Everything else is fine though.
My dogs love the Pampered Pets Resort and so do I! They always come home happy and tired after a ruff day at the resort. The staff is always friendly, professional, and attentive and gets to know your pups on a first name basis. Also, the place is always immaculate, sometimes evens smells like fresh bleach on arrival in the evening (love it!). They do a great job of assessing dogs before caring for them, so I feel my pets are safe and in good hands when I leave them there. 10/10 would recommend for doggy daycare!
My dog is very reactive and getting him groomed has been a challenge. He had his first appointment and it went great! Everyone was welcoming and the groomer was amazing! I have had such a hard time finding a place that can handle my dog and get through the grooming whole grooming session! Definitely going to return!
We LOVE Pampered Pets!!! Their staff are amazing and so patient with our little monsters. Whether it’s daycare while we’re at work or boarding when we’re on vacation, we know that Lucy and Willie are in very good hands. We wouldn’t send them anywhere else! 🐶🐶 …
I did a lot of research before deciding to go to pampered pets daycare. The facility is by far the best I have ever seen! The employees are extremely caring, as if each dog was their own. Today was Maisy’s first introduction and evaluation. I was so impressed that I decided to leave her there for the next four hours. She came home happy and tired from all the fun play. I am also thankful they don’t have muddy areas for dogs to play in because she was clean. This is a must place to go for all of our furry babies! This picture tells me how good of a time she had today. 🐶🥰
I absolutely love this place and my puppy loves it more! They have a process to go thru when you want daycare and they do an assessment on your puppy to make sure they will be a good fit! They take the time to get to know your dog and I appreciate that! They are always posting to social media so you know they are happy!
These guys are the best and I'm picky who I entrust my dogs with. They treat them like family and are very thoughtful
We have hired Totally Tails Pet Care Services to take care of our two indoor cats many times over the past year, and we couldn't be more pleased. We receive daily email photo updates along with thorough, detailed reports while we are gone. We know they get plenty of attention and affection because our cats are always cheerful and calm when we get home with no signs of separation anxiety. Thank you Michele for your great service!
Totally Tails Pet Care Services has provided excellent, caring and reliable dog walking/pet care five days a week for the last year for our two Golden Retrievers (our dogs are now one year old and nine years old). Our family is so impressed with the level of service and professionalism provided by Totally Tails Pet Care! I highly recommend them! The daily pictures of our pets, which they email us, are just the best. It is so reassuring to know that our furry family members are well cared for while we are at work.
I hired Totally Tails to watch after my 2 dogs while I was on vacation in Hawaii. I knew I didn’t want to kennel them, so I was excited about someone coming to my home to feed, exercise, and care for my pups. Not only do they do a fantastic job of exercising the dogs they sent DAILY photos and follow-ups of their health and progress. These reports made me feel very comfortable with Totally Tails. They also rotated indoor lighting so as to give the impression that someone is always home. Superb service! Beats kenneling when your pups are in their home environment. I will contract with them again!
When it comes to Totally Tails, I have nothing but positive things to say. We trust the entire team completely and know that our dogs are in great hands when we're away. Even if our regular sitter isn't available, there is always someone on standby to ensure our pups receive all the love and attention they need. Ramona runs her business with precision and ease, making scheduling and communication a breeze. We feel lucky to have Totally Tails in our dogs' lives and highly recommend them to anyone in need of pet care services.
This was the best pet care service we have ever experienced. An excellent value. The daily 30-minute visit was packed with focused attention to our cat's specific needs: food, medication, daily litter box cleaning, brushing, play time with treats, supervised outdoor deck time (indoor cat), and loving lap petting time. We received a daily review with pictures that served as both comfort and joy to us while we were away. Absolutely reliable. Knowledgeable about animal care. Loving and attentive. Professional. Responsible. Attentive to detail. Michele made sure we provided for unanticipated problems prior to leaving so our bases were covered in any event. THE BEST. We came home to a calm, happy, well cared for cat.
As fellow pet care providers we are quite picky who we leave our pack with should we go out of town. Ramona took care of a large zoo of animals (game birds, fish, Guinea pigs, and dogs). Her updates were thorough, and we came home to a clean house and happy animals. If you need a professional you can trust, you've found one here. Part of why we never leave town is not having had anyone we felt comfortable leaving them with, but now we do!
I love Michelle! We trust her implicitly with our dog and home. She goes above and beyond by bringing in our trash cans and packages when she's at our home for a dog visit. She sends us texts and pictures of our dog so we know she's taken care of. And she insists you text her that you're back home so she's assured your pet is safe. That's excellent care! Highly recommend her!
Camano Pet Sitters hav been taking care of my two Springer Spaniels for the last 2 years and I couldn't be happier. I have the peace of mind of knowing that my dogs are being loved and cared for when I have to be gone during the day. I don't know what I would do without Michele, Pat and their crew of dog lovers. I highly recommend them for you and your pet!
I was stressed, four sorta feral cats and I had to take a trip. My vet said boarding was a bad idea because none of them would adjust well - in addition to being expensive. Camano Pet Sitters to the rescue! Not only did they do a professional job I think they made headway with my cats who were actually peeking out at them by the end of the week. I cannot recommend Camano Pet Sitters highly enough - they are now my go to folks when I have to travel. My neighbors, who travel regularly, were so impressed by the level of professionalism and caring my pets received they will be switching to Camano Pet Sitters.
Sarah clearly loves dogs and knows how to care well for them. Our large breed is welcomed with enthusiasm at Vacation Pet Care, Sarah is responsive and flexible, and very reasonably priced. We get photos, videos, and other updates constantly through our 4-legged family member's stay helping us to feel connected and confident in how well she's doing while we're away. 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend!
Absolutely incredible place. We had our dog here for 1 week. The setup is perfect for dogs with big yards that can be separated. The owner absolutely loves dogs and it shows in how she cares for all the dogs boarding. She would send dozens of photos and videos daily to ensure we felt connected to our pup while we were away. Clear and easy communication, followed all instructions regarding food. Our dog was so happy and healthy. Cannot recommend this place enough.
Wonderful!!! If you are in need of a dog sitter, look no further! Sarah was amazing and took such great care of our dog as we went out of town. It was our first time using a dog sitter & leaving our pup in the care of someone else, and Sarah made sure he was taken care of. She texted us often sending photos and updates on how their day was going. He was able to socialize with other pups, had lots of play time, got walks and lots of love. I will definitely use Vacation Pet Care in the future and highly recommend to anyone who needs someone trustworthy to take care of my dog. Thank you Sarah!
Sarah is not just a dog sitter, she goes above and beyond to make our lives that much easier while we are away. From the many photos and videos, brushings, and quality time to refilling our dogs' water tank and mini dog lessons. Sarah always goes the extra mile to ensure our dogs have the best care. 10/10 recommend!
Sarah has watched our two dogs twice for long trips and they always have such a great time! Last time I think they were even sad to come home and punished me for 24 hours after, wanting to go back to her house. She plays with them so much, takes great care and will even do whatever training you are working on with them. She sends lots of updates and I know they are well cared for and happy.
This was our two year old corgi's first time being boarded and we are so happy he stayed with Sarah! Everyday, we received many photos and videos of our dog having a fun time with Sarah and the other dogs she was caring for. We will definitely reach out to Sarah for dog boarding in the future. She is absolutely the best!
I asked Sarah to take care of my senior dog with some special needs while I was away for a week, and I'm so glad I did. She was so attentive and caring with my four-legged soulmate, sending me pictures and videos on a regular basis and keeping me in the loop on my dog's day to day condition, mood, habits, everything. This was the first time I've ever boarded my dog, and all my worries were very quickly dispensed. Sarah is amazing and you couldn't do better for your pet care.
Sarah is amazing!! she always takes great care of our Zoey! She is 100% reliable and accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend her. Also, expect to get many pictures of your pet while she takes care of them. Thanks Sarah!
Thank you for the 5 star rating!
Thank you for the great rating!
I was so nervous to leave my little girl while i had to go out of town, but Lia immediately put both of us at ease! It was comforting that she does an evaluation for new dogs to make sure they play well with others. She sent lots of photos of my pup playing with her new friends which was a comfort as well! Nice to know that she was having so much fun while we had to be separated!
Lia did so well with my cattle dog, Reishi. If you know cattle dogs you know they pick a small group of people in their life they choose to love. So new experiences can be challenging for the dog and new person. So I was very stressed about leaving her with a new sitter! Lia was very knowledgable about the breed and Reishi did great in the environment Lia has created! Lia was very communicative and sent me lots of cute photos throughout Reishi’s stay. Would highly recommend! She even took this cute polaroid photo and included it when I picked Reishi up!
We left our Chi-mix with CCC for a long weekend and it was a great experience for all! Our pup had a blast and was very well taken care of - allowing us to enjoy our vacation. Would definitely recommend!
Lia has cared for dogs since she was able to walk. She has years of experience in the pet care industry and is presently enrolled in Animal Behavior at Washington University. Friendly, reliable and no one better for pet care.
If you are looking for a person that will treat your pet like their own. Lia is your person. They are prompt, trustworthy, and reliable! I don't know what I would do without their services. I get updates throughout the day with pictures and videos. I highly recommend Cottage Critter Care!
My dog has been going to CCC for daycare every week for the last few weeks. He’s had a great time and I look forward to continuing to take him!
Lia is extremely knowledgeable about dogs, their needs, and socialization! She is compassionate, kind and professional. I’ll always trust her with any of my fur babies!
Although I'm too far away to take advantage of Cottage Critter Care's services, I've visited & seen how much love & care each pet gets during their stay. I would highly recommend Cottage Critter Care to everyone who wants the best for their beloved pets!!!
Leila has been an absolute angel 😇 She has taken such good care of our fur babies!!! She always goes the extra mile. We can relax when we leave, knowing they're in such great hands. We've regained our freedom to travel!! Knowing they're being well taken care of is a huge relief! We can't say enough good things! We would HIGHLY recommend Leila to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!!! 😀 PS... she should also take up pet photography! She sends the best pics at every visit!!! 😍
It's rare that I review any service, product, or business of any kind. I feel obligated to leave a public review informing the compassion and understanding thay Flyin Fur has showed my family and of course my dog. Lelia has assisted us in getting our working line GSD through his puppy stages with constantly keeping him mentally stimulated in a safe environment. The passion and expertise she has in her profession was evident from day one. I will warmly continue to welcome her into my family's home on an as needed basis without reservation. Thank you Lelia.
Lelia is far and away the most professional dog walker I've found in the area. I trust her 100% with my baby girl Pickles and never worried about her while Lelia had her. She was also flexible in catering to my ever changing schedule and I will continue to use her when I'm in need of a walker. 5 stars!
I cannot recommend Lelia enough; she took wonderful care of my critters while I was gone! I have a mature cat and a Box Turtle that I have had for over 35-years, so I am concerned about leaving them and have never really found anyone that I felt comfortable leaving in their care, especially Wilbur, my turtle, who needs special care, but Lelia exceeded my greatest expectations, and made my recent vacation a stress-free pleasure. I received daily updates, pictures and even videos on the care of my animal companions. Lelia is very thorough and covers all the bases - detailed instructions, emergency care options & actions, etc., in preparing for your pet's care, so you can relax while you are gone, knowing your animal companion is getting the best and most conscientious care possible. Lelia is also reasonably priced and won't break the bank. Thanks, Lelia! I could not be happier with the service you provide :)
Wonderful services from Lelia! Her love of animals is apparent immediately upon meeting her! She has vast knowledge of dogs of many different breeds. Be assured, your pet will be in good hands if in her care.
Leila at Flyin Fur Pet Sitting took excellent care of my dogs. One of my Shelties requires seizure meds at specific times and she reliably did that. She sends text updates that include photos of my canine crew to let me know that all is well. Highly reccommend this caring, qualified professional.
Leila is great. For a couple years she was our backup sitter when finally this year, our regular sitter retired. Leila always tries to accommodate me at the last minute. My dogs and kitty love her. I highly recommend Flyin Fur.
When our pet sitter recently retired we were so happy to find Lelia. She is extremely organized and thorough and best of all, our three dogs love her!
Lelia was a god send to us! We needed her to walk our rottie 3 times a day. We all fell in love with her (me, my husband and our 2 small dogs as well as our rott) and she was so enthusiastic each time she came over. Our rott would get so excited knowing she was coming. I recommend her services highly.
Lelia has taken care of my pets through several generations of dogs including the last few days of rather intensive care of my aged Labrador. I have been around her household and pets for more than 30 years. NO ONE will ever pet sit my pets except for that lovely lady at Flyin Fur pet sitters!
We moved out of the state recently, but we used Cali’s services for about two years. She took the best care of our cats and I am sure they miss her. I appreciated the detailed daily messages along with great photos of each cat that day. One of our cats is very shy and Cali made sure to find her and make sure she was okay, but after a few trips Stella loved to get attention from Cali. She also was so helpful with collecting our mail/packages and taking our bins to the curb on trash days. I would recommend her to anyone in the area needing pet sitting!
Had a great experience with Puget Paws! We needed help on pretty short notice to walk our dog during the day, and Heather and her team helped set everything up and walk my dog with less than 24 hour notice. For the visits, I got pictures and a prompt write-up. And pup was happy which is the most important part. There is a website and app you can use to communicate easily and pay through. Big fan of the local team and look forward to using them again in the near future!
Heather and her team at Puget Paws have been walking our very energetic dog three times a week for over a year now. Our dog is a handful on a leash, especially when other dogs are present, and he does so well with them. She and her team are also prompt, reliable, communicative. Our pup adores them and always returns happy and tired.
Puget Paws is a very professional and reliable dog walking service. Our family loves the daily updates and photos we receive. Their team of dog walkers if very caring and loving of our dogs, and the owner Heather is very professional and responsive. Highly recommend!
I left a review for Puget Paws recently but already feel like I need to update it because they have been so great. On a recent trip there was a health crisis with one of our pets and Puget Paws (and Heather in particular) handled it so well, calm and effective in an emergency situation, compassionate for us and our pet, and absolutely going above and beyond for us without hesitation. I am so grateful for everything they did for us! I also highly recommend them for the day-to-day petsitting as well; I have always returned to happy, well-taken-care of critters. We have a diverse array of pets and Puget Paws has been wonderful pet sitters for all of them. We get an update including photos every time they visit, which I love. Prices are very reasonable and incredibly easy to book and pay for via their website, and they are quick to respond to booking requests.
Puget Paws was the perfect choice for watching our dog over the weekend. Heather and Leah visited our home for an introductory visit and to get to know our dog (and cat) better. They provided vet paperwork for both animals in case anything happened and asked all the right questions, making us feel like our pets would be well taken care of while we were away. We were able to easily coordinate what times would work best for them to visit and walk/feed our dog. They were very diligent about communicating to us what was going on while our dog was in their care and even provided pictures! After using their services, it's clear why they have so much support from local businesses. I would highly recommend using their services!
Puget paws makes leaving home so much more enjoyable! The whole process from signing up to getting notifications is organized and easy to navigate. Heather, Lizzie and Cali work together while continually giving you detailed updates to ensure your furry friend is happy and loved! We will always use Puget paws whenever we travel! Thank you!
We cannot recommend Puget Paws highly enough - they've been our one and only pet care provider since January 2018. My wife and I are both out of the house all day at work, and our dogs are all active and need regular exercise. The PP team comes in on weekdays and walks them around the neighborhood in ones and twos (we have 4 dogs). Our pack considers the PP staff to be additional pack members and is always super-excited to see them. The communication from PP is always timely and detailed. On the daily side, we get a picture and a summary of each dogs' activities during the visit. For canceling/adding additional services, responses are always prompt and clear. Billing is easy to understand - it's easy to see what each charge is for. The website/app combination they use for communication and paying invoices is simple to use. We love Puget Paws!
The Puget Paws team is fantastic! Everyone is incredibly professional and my dog is so happy. We love the updates we get from our dog's walker, which includes a summary of his adventure and pictures. We are so happy to have found Puget Paws!
Very reliable and couldn't be nicer! I love getting a photo of my happy dogs on their walks and the delightful descriptions of how the walks went. They are incredibly responsive and an excellent value for the price.
