Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
This was our first house/pet sit with @zeewoi and we were extremely pleased! Robert showed up when he said he would, he accommodated our timelines and our dog's scheduled routine. He left our home in excellent shape and we had a very happy, relaxed pup to come home to. It was important to us that Robert meet us via video chat or in person before we left and he went above and beyond. He sent photos of our dog, Cooper, and him throughout the sit and we could tell that Cooper was very happy with Robert. He responded immediately to our texts, giving him updates about our return. Communication is so important for making sure both the sitter and the house owners are confident in one another. Robert is very outgoing and friendly and we have 100% confidence in him to look after our home and our dog when we are away. We look forward to Robert providing another future home sit.
Leah & Elias, were an absolute joy as housesitters. They arrived a day early so we could all meet and go over the pets routine. Our cat is relatively new and has a little separation anxiety but they managed his care really well. Our dog needed to be dropped off at a sitters and they took care of that as well. We also came home to a clean and neat house! Overall, they went above and beyond and I highly recommend them.
Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉
Lea is seriously the best! We lucked out big time with her as our house sitter. She didn't just watch our home; she made it sparkle, and our dog Mezy? Well, he fell head over paws for her! Mezy's doesn't always warm up to new folks so easily but Lea had this magical charm that had him wagging his tail from day one. She showered him with cuddles and playtime, and we got daily photo updates that were basically cuteness overload. But Lea didn't stop at being the dog whisperer. Every nook and cranny was squeaky clean, and it felt like we were walking into a Pinterest-worthy home. Our plants thrived under her care too. Communication was a breeze with Lea. She kept us in the loop about everything and replied to our messages super quickly. It gave us peace of mind knowing she had everything under control. Lea's not just a house sitter - her friendly, laid-back vibe made everything so easy. We can't thank her enough for taking such great care of Mezy and our home. We're definitely booking her for all our future adventures. If you want your pets to adore your house sitter and come back to a spotless home, Lea is the one to call. Thanks a million, Lea!
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!
First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.

I've taken my dog Brodo, rottweiler mix, a few times for boarding and he loves it! He's always excited going in and goes around saying Hi to everyone who works there. I really appreciate their thouroughness on making sure a dog is …
On Cloud-9 Dog Daycare is the best! We would not trust Penny to any other Daycare.
I feel so lucky to have this facility nearby! My dog goes for daycare/playday once a week and has a great time. He’s an only dog, so I’m happy to have a place for him to play safely with other dogs. He’s also stayed there when we travel and I don’t worry because I know he’s safe and well cared for.
My dogs LOVE going here. All k have to say is, “Wanna go to daycare?” And they go nuts. The staff loves the animals as their own.
Before going on a cruise, my family brought in my (almost) 5 year old guinea pig Carl to stay for 2 weeks. The staff immediately fawned over him and treated him like a pet of their own. They gave him great care and attention throughout our time away, and we were comforted by the staff's responsiveness and care. Unfortunately, the morning we were supposed to pick him up, Carl passed away (natural causes). Every staff member at Holiday Barn treated him with the utmost care and respect, seemingly also devastated by our loss as they had bonded with our beloved Carl. They were extremely empathetic - I could not have asked for a better staff to take care of my furry friend, and am grateful that he made some new "friends" in his last weeks. Carl will be dearly missed, and we will surely bring our pets to Holiday Barn in the future. Thank you, Holiday Barn!
Our dog, Reggie, is spending a few days here while we are away. This is his first time away from us, and I think his dad is taking it harder!! Haha. The staff is so sweet, Abby & Shannon, especially. I can't tethe lady at check-in, but she was very nice & thoroughl with all the information. We look forward to enjoying this vacation, while Reggie enjoys his!
In her first week of day training, my dog's behavior has improved dramatically. She has learned to walk on a leash without pulling and no lunges at other dogs that pass by. Very happy with her progress.
My dog Max has no anxiety about going to the Holiday Barn Pet Resort and he seems happy and relaxed when I pick him up. It is such a comfort to know he is well cared for when I am out of town,
Unfortunately I do not have a good experience. I wanted to like this place because they are so close but two things… 1. My dogs never had fleas. Never had a flea in my house until I left them at Holiday. 2. They did not wash my dogs, they knew they didn’t and they still charged me. If they had given them the spa treatment that they said would be done the day I picked them up, it may have taken care of the flea issue. Very dishonest. Trust is broken.
While my old pup was boarding, she got an eye infection. HB staff noticed right away, texted, emailed and called me. They sent pictures and took such good care of her until I could arrange for a friend to take her to the vet. The staff at HB is top notch and I will always recommend!
Love holiday barn! Our sweet puppy has gone here for training and boarding, and he’s LOVED it. He’s gotten a lot calmer (but of course still playful) and responds to commands so well!! Highly recommend, love the staff as well.
Very happy with Holiday Barn for training, boarding, and doggie daycare. We wouldn’t trust our fur baby with anyone else! Compassionate and loving employees who really enjoy being with animals.
When dropping my dogs off at 3pm, the receptionist asked what time we would be picking them up. I told her "probably some time in the afternoon". She gave no indication that we would be charged $39.00 per dog for a half day if we picked them up after 1 pm, nor did anyone mention this while I was booking their stay. I also did not see this policy anywhere on the website. So needless to say I am very disappointed in the extra $78 charge that could have been avoided if we would have known to pick them up before 1pm (we got there at 3pm). I called the office the next day to discuss this, and she said somebody would call me back soon. It has been over a week and I never received a phone call. Taking off stars for poor customer service.
Everyone loves My dog Mimi. A fabulous place! She goes every day and we and she love it!
We love A Stay in the Country! Both of our dogs have spent time boarding here and they love it! They get the attention that they need, plenty of play time, and the staff love on them like their own. We always appreciate the updates on Facebook & Instagram when we are away! The staff make the process seamless when booking reservations. We are so happy that we found A Stay in the Country and that our pups love it so much too!
My dog stays here regularly for boarding. She always has a fantastic time! Staff are well trained and make sure to pay close attention to the dogs and keep them in a positive and stimulating environment. They also offer great package options to best suit various types of energy levels in dogs. The best part is they have tons of space for the dogs to run outside during playtime which is what our pup loves most!
My puppy Wasabi loves ASITC and their staff. Highly recommend for day care and boarding
Leaving my dog is always a little/lot wrenching for me, but every time we pull into the driveway at ASITC, she starts squeaking with joy and jumping up so much that I have to pull over to unclip her harness so that she can put her front feet on my shoulder and exclaim her delight right into my ear. She could not be in more loving hands. All of the staff have undergone Fear-free certification. They make sure that the dogs get the experience they need. It’s a beautiful farm - green grass, tall trees - I always wish I could book myself a stay. I am beyond grateful for their diligent care.
Price was competitive, Nice location, very pleasant and informative staff. They welcomed my 110lb energetic American Bully with open arms. I definitely plan on returning for their day care and overnight services when needed.
The staff at this facility are top notch! They treat your dog with great care, love, and energy. The extra activities they do with the dogs are above and beyond what you would expect. The facility is safe and clean. My dog attends daycare here, and has also boarded here. He absolutely loves spending time here! His care-takers as well as his "bark buddies" are his best friends. You won't find a better place to take your dog.
A Stay in the Country is every dog owner’s dream! My dog Annie has severe separation anxiety, doesn’t love playing with other dogs, and is anxious around new people. After trying other kennels and dog sitters and not having great experiences we found A Stay in the Country and any anxieties of leaving my dog while on vacation are gone! Annie loves the staff and barks with excitement as soon as we hit the driveway. With the customizable activity packages, they have exactly what we need for my dog’s stay and even share updates via text and Facebook. We’ve recommended ASITC to other family and friends and they have been repeat customers as well. I can’t recommend A Stay in the Country more!
We are boarding our dog in June and he needed to come for an evaluation to see how he did. From start to finish the process was beautifully easy. I felt like everyone truly cared about my pup's well being and he enjoyed his day stay so much we may book a few more in between now and his boarding date. I feel comfortable leaving him here in June because i know he will get the best care. 👌 🤩
We are so happy we learned about A Stay in the Country! Our young puppy has now stayed with them twice and has loved every minute; they give him ample play time with other pups his size/demeanor and clearly treat him well. We let them know it was his birthday this weekend while we were gone and they even threw him a party with his doggy friends. Even though we are about 30 minutes away, we go out of our way to drop off our dog because they are so wonderful. Cannot recommend them enough!
Love the care and attention they give to all the furry friends! They go up and beyond to provide care and interaction with your pet. Our Bella loves all the attention and the opportunity to play with all her new friends! Highly recommend A Fun Stay in the Country to anyone who is looking for great care and one-on-one interaction ❤️
