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.

Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!
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💖🎉
Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.
Such a great family! George, Larissa and their crew were a fantastic bunch. Our large senior dog got an eye infection right before we left for our trip and so we had to ask them to do some extra eye care. When it was clear that it wasn’t getting better they were willing to load up Lorax and take him to a vet appointment and then apply the prescribed ointment for the next week and a half. Definitely above and beyond care that we really appreciated! Our house was left in great shape, our pets were super well cared for, and George and Larissa were great communicators. We have had many many sitters over the past 3 years but this was the first family. Nothing to worry about, they were terrific and we would happily have them back again. Thanks for taking such good care of our fury family and our home!
Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!
Wendy sat for us on three occasions this Summer and I can’t say enough good things about her. The dogs were well taken care of and she was, organized, tidy, and responsible. It’s great to find a house/pet sitter that you can rest easy knowing everything is taken care of. We are hoping she will want to spend more time in the PNW!
I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend. Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay. It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail. She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures. I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it. I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.

I left my 10-year old Bichon here for 4.5 days with a request to be boarded with the older dog group. He was returned to me with his tail between his legs and soaked in urine. I didn’t realize it until I got to the car but I already had a grooming appointment lined up that morning already so I rushed him over. The groomer teared up because it was so bad. Not sure what happened but if you leave your dog here you’re rolling the dice with their wellbeing. Strongly advise going elsewhere.
Been coming to DITW for 3+ years now. Always greeted with a smile and you can tell the team genuinely loves being with the dogs. I have a pup who absolutely loves going to see all of her friends every time I drop her off. After trying a few places prior to this, I recommend DITW to everyone.
This has been my favorite dog daycare and boarding choice. The staff are very friendly and they greet my dog by name and most importantly, my dog loves it! He gets super excited when we pull into the parking lot and is always exhausted when we get home.
Our dog seems to really enjoy going to daycare. He comes home exhausted and doesn’t get nervous about being dropped off. This makes me comfortable and I believe he enjoys it. Most recently we boarded him and everything was easy and he was well taken care of. I love the pictures they post on Facebook and instagram!
Have had great experiences at Doggie in the Window for several years and running. We gladly take our dog here for boarding and day care and appreciate the kind staff who care for our dog. The facility is clean, includes indoor and outdoor access for playtime, and is very well run. I would highly recommend this facility to others!
My dog Finney loves going half a day and playing with others dogs. The staff is very cordial and accommodating. We've been a long time customer. Doggie in the window is run very efficiently.
Hazel Marie has been going to Doggie in the Window since she was 10 weeks old She turned 8 this past May. All I have to say we're going to doggie daycare and she is ready to go.
Let me start out by saying I think they do a fine job here and I really wish I could leave a better review. When we got a new puppy a year and a half ago we were very excited to have a place to drop her off for daycare, and for boarding, that was so close to home. However, we have had several very inappropriate encounters with Lisa. She has been rude, abrasive, and extremely unprofessional. She has raised her voice, repeated herself in a condescending manner, and yelled at my 7-year old daughter. In reading prior reviews, this is apparently a fairly common theme. As a result, we will not be returning.
My appreciation has escalated since moving out of state, and no longer able to bring our dog here. Doggie In The Window is an amazing resource for your family pet. They treat your dog like family and all their customers with respect, warmth and kindness. Their facility is amazing. This is the best care available. I took my dog there for nine years on a regular basis.
Our pups love coming here! We bring them for both daycare and boarding and they are always excited when we pull into the parking lot and can’t wait to go in to play. I love that the dogs are out during the day and not stuck inside a kennel. Wendy, Lisa and all the staff are absolutely amazing, thanks for always taking the best care of Boz & Gia (and our deeply missed Riggs ❤️)
Just had a great first experience with Fetch this last week while on vacation. My dog walker, Barb, gave super updates and pics that reflected she was really a great dog person who understood my dog. Email communication before and after was very professional. I will be a repeat customer for sure !!!
FETCH IS AMAZING. I've been using them for over 6 months and have had nothing but wonderful walkers/caretakers!! They provide so many options, all reasonably priced, including quick let outs, walks, all day daycare for those of us that work! And every walker that you are introduced to is local, super flexible, reliable, and so so caring. I know that I can fully trust any caretaker that fetch employs/refers to me! Weekend, weekday, morning or evening, FETCH has always found someone to help me out when I'm in a last minute bind. They always send an update, whether it's a quick text, photograph, etc. The current owners, Marie and Jack, are so so wonderful! Can’t recommend enough.
I recently used the services of Fetch and I was thoroughly impressed with their team, system, and services. From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to ensure that my needs were met and that I was satisfied with the outcome. Their personalized approach and attention to detail were exceptional, and they took the time to understand my requirements and provide me with tailored solutions. What stood out to me the most was their efficient system - it made the entire process seamless and easy to follow. Their team was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had, and their excellent customer service made the experience all the more enjoyable. I highly recommend Fetch to anyone looking for reliable and efficient services. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend Fetch to anyone in need of their services. I look forward to working with them again in the future!
We just got a puppy and needed someone to watch him while we went on an extended weekend trip. Fetch Pet Care was just what we needed. Everyone was so nice and the home where our puppy stayed was clean and had a lovely yard. We were sent regular updates about our puppy including pictures. It made us feel so much better knowing that our puppy was well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely use Fetch Pet Care again and have already recommended them to friends and family. My mom also used Fetch for her dog and loved them as much as we did.
We have used Fetch Pet Care Royal Oak for 2 years and absolutely love their service. Talk about on time, all the time 5 days a week, they are wonderful. She is so reliable and accommodating with any request and the sudden emergency. We have been blessed with an amazing young staff member who the dogs love and so do we!
I have been cleaning turtles for a household twice a month for the last two years and I have personally witnessed in the last year, not one, not two, but three times this same household of pets getting forgotten about. Enough is enough!! The first time Fetch's dog walker forgot the midday and the dogs soiled the house (which they never do). I cleaned up the mess and contacted the owner of Fetch immediately. The second time I walked in to find the dog walker let the dogs out back, then left to do another pet sit. The third, and most recent episode I walked into; three very distress dogs, a whole lot of dog mess, and one very injured parakeet. The water dish for the dogs and the parakeet were almost empty. The parakeets hadn't been fed in what appeared to be days and someone left an overhead light on all day and night for them. Birds need darkness to sleep. That's most likely why one attacked the other, it was hungry and unable to sleep. The house was a mess!!! I arrived at 11am to find no one had been there all morning. The mail and about six newspapers were piled on the front porch, there was a lot of dog feces in the kitchen garbage and on the floor along with urine. There were valuable household items scattered about on the floor and the dogs were very sad. This is all because of neglect from careless pet sitters! I am completely irritated by this situation and want to make people aware that this could be your home while you are away. I hear horror stories all the time. It's extremely important to ask questions when hiring anyone to care for your home, whether a neighbor, friend or a company. I contacted the owner of the home and expressed my concern. In addition to taking pictures, I brought my partner and sister over to help out and they both witnessed the whole situation and were both disappointed at the lack of care and the condition of the home. - - My review has absolutely nothing to do with competition. I find it ironic that three 5 star reviews showed up the same day I posted this. I do not doubt that Fetch of Royal Oak has offered many clients with good service and will continue to do so. I wrote this review because this situation brought tears to my eyes and I felt I needed to share it.
I have used Fetch Pet Care many times and I have always had an amazing experience! The dog walkers and sitters are dependable, personable and great with my dog. I would highly recommend using them!
My cats love our cat sitter! I never have to worry about my cats when I’m on vacation. Thank you!
I Love that they Love the Pups like they Love their own treats them like family
A great pet sitting service for our cat!
