Dog Sitters in Dorrington, CA

Emily is a God send for nervous fur mommas (and dads’) I’ve never left my little Ike with anyone but family, so I was very apprehensive leaving him when our entire family went on vacation together. We did a meet and greet with Emily and her fur family and I was put at ease. Throughout our vacation she sent me daily updates and pictures of Ike which made me feel so much better knowing that he was being taken well care of and loved. Her rates are more than reasonable for what she provides and I plan on using Comfy Paws for future drop offs and extended vacations. You can be rest assured that your pup will be absolutely well taken care of when they are in her care.

Emily was so wonderful with my dog over the weekend! Very communicative and sent me lots of photos! It really helped me feel at ease while being out of town. I will absolutely be using her in the future.

Emily and her family are wonderful! My dog just loves her and her sweet dog. Emily takes really good care and sends pictures. She is willing to work with me and my schedule fairly and promptly. I’m so grateful to have a loving home to have my dog boarded when I’m away. I couldn’t ask for anyone better!

Emily was so great with our two dogs while we were on vacation. Her communication was awesome, and she even sent us pictures and videos of our dogs so we could see how happy they were. Our dogs loved their time at Comfy Paws! We highly recommend it!

Emily is a true animal lover. She understands that our dogs are our children and is happy to send updates throughout the day. My dog Josie loves to spend time with Emily and I just know she is well taken care of when she goes there. I just wish there were other dogs there for her to play with, that's the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5.

Emily is so wonderful! I always get updates on how our pup is doing. He is so happy when he stays with her.

I am so grateful to have found Emily! From the initial ‘meet and greet’ we knew she would take excellent care of our 1 year old, high energy pup! She kept me updated constantly over our 10 day vacation and put my mind as ease to know our pup was being loved and cared for. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who does not want to board their fur babies in a large facility, but wants to know they will continue to be loved and cared for in their absence.

Comfy Paws has been taking care of our Sadie for several months. Sadie loves to go to Comfy Paws. We know this because of how excited Sadie gets everytime we drop her off. She gets walked several times a day and she comes home tired. Picture of tired Sadie included.

Emily is a great dog minder. She’s cared for our big dog many times. We never feel guilty dropping him off with her as he LOVES going there. She’s also super responsive and great at sending pic/video updates.

I looooved it!!

Bonnie cared for our 2 dogs while we visited Yosemite. They were both super happy to be there even though they are very different personalities. Our older dog needed to be kept calm due to an injured hip and Bonnie did a great job. You can hardly tell she is injured. And our younger dog got to play to her hearts content! Thank you Bonnie for being here and providing a safe and fun environment for our dogs!

Very impressed with the care and love. We visited Yosemite with peace of mind knowing our shih tzu was in good hands. Dog heaven

We boarded our Pitty with Bonnie just before Christmas for two nights while we explored Yosemite NP and it was a great experience. We were a little worried going in, as a few days prior to our trip stay our pup suffered a pretty bad leg sprain and we were concerned she might injure herself further during puppy play. Bonnie was awesome, and even sent us a couple of email messages during our trip to let us know that our dog was doing well, which we really appreciated.

Bonnie is amazing! She took excellent care of our pup! Great price and close to Yosemite. Our pup left happy! We will use her again! She even worked with out pick up times too!

So glad to have found this place. Left my pup, Milo here for 4 days while exploring Yosemite and he had the best time in the large yard and in Bonnie's care. Bonnie made me feel so at peace with trusting my pup in her hands. Great communicator, she had everything confirmed a month out and already has our booked for the next time we are returning. Better than any kennel or dog hotel I've ever found. Thank you for everything!

We did a last moment daycare when we were visiting this area for our doggo. The owner was extremely kind & loving. She took care of our doggo Milo very well & accommodated changes in our schedule very gracefully too. We felt happy & safe leaving our doggo. We 100% recommend this place

Bonnie took great care of our Josie. About 5 or 6 dogs getting along. When it gets hot, Bonnie brings them in. Both days when we picked up the dogs were inside, not kenneled just hanging out. If you want to do something and doggie can't go, this is worth the extra time and $$.

Bonnie is a very nice, trustworthy person and you can tell she loves dogs a lot. Your pup will be in good hands with Bonnie. We would highly recommend her!

Best place to kennel your dog on Groveland/Yosemite. Bonnie takes excellent care of our dogs, been using her service for over a decade and always reliable, trustworthy, attentive and caring. Highly recommend!

Best boarding place ever. Bonnie was great and able to to get my little Zoey in on short notice. I felt very comfortable leaving Zoey there for a few days while we enjoyed Yosemite. Bonnie made the process easy and I would definitely take Zoey there again. Highly recommend Big Creek Boarding. Thanks again!

Murphy’s Pet and Home Sitting was great! Diane is the universe’s best! My cats were injured by dogs and Diane took very good care of them. She updated me every day and sent pictures. I felt so secure being away.

We had to leave our 2 dogs for an extended stay (3 months) after our pet/house sitter fell through at the last minute. Our dogs were very, very well cared for while we were gone. I am so grateful for the caring staff! Our dogs were happy and healthy when we were finally able to make it back home :)

We called on a Wednesday searching for a place that could take our dog Thurs-Sat morning during spring break. Everywhere was full and the Paws Inn called us back as they had found a spot for him knowing we really needed it. They took great care of our boy and he even had another large friend to play with during his stay!

The staff was great!!!! We left our two little guys with them for 3 days. First time ever boarded them. We called everyday and they gave us updates saying they we're fine. So thanks Paws Inn!!!! Great job!! Rick and Dacy

I left my three dogs in the inn for 9 days. they took very good care of my dogs . They came out healthy and happy and they were all safe while I was away. And I have a husky who is hard to keep. Thank you paws inn

Tillie our 8 month old Lab loves it their. We do play day and over night stays 3 or 4 times a month. Recently remodeled. Indoor/outdoor kennels. Heated and cooled. Reasonable rates. Friendly staff.

Paws Inn has been nothing but wonderful, the staff is awesome and they treat your dogs as if they were their own. Their pricing is very reasonable, you can't beat it. Just all around an awesome place to take your pooch. 😊

We've tried a few places to board our doggo when we can't take him out of town with us, and Paws Inn is where we take him now. The staff is friendly, and greets him by name when we arrive. He always looks happy and healthy when we arrive home. 13/10 doggos would agree.

I could get my dog washed for just 25 bucks. The help is always friendly and I enjoy going there I probably would have found it if my dog didn't have an emergency and I went to Mono that's next door. While I was waiting for my dog to get fixed up I notice assignment so I walked over there and talk to them. This is where I get my dog washed from now on

They were able to fit our puppy in for boarding during a last minute trip while our normal (in town) boarding facility was remodeling. So thankful to have thought to look in Sonora

If I could give 31/2 stars I would. When we dropped Harley off, we had a very smooth transition. When I picked him up, the girls were frazzled and kept saying it was a hectic day. I had him signed up for a bath and a nail clip. He got the bath but they forgot the nails. One girl came out and said she'd clip his nails real quick. During the clipping, Harley got a little squiggly and she pulled him, not in the nicest way, and told him settle down. They lost his blanket, and kept bringing me the wrong ones which says other owners are going to go through the same thing. I'm not sure if I'll go back. If it hadn't been so caotic at pickup, things would have been different. I walked away wondering how his stay was.

Pet Vacations has been THE BEST EXPERIENCE for our puppy Tucker since he was 6-mos-old (he's now 8-mos-old). He gets so much playtime outside with others that he would play well with (not all dogs are the same demeanor!) and gets so much attention from Owner Lindsay Stark and her staff. We are so, so happy we found a good place for Tucker to have fun with his friends and other humans besides us. Lindsay gave me daily updates for Tucker's first time and these wonderful pics. We highly recommend Pet Vacations. 🙂

I went camping 4th of July week and while I was out of town, there was an issue with where my dogs were staying and I needed immediate help. I called and explained my situation with Pet Vacations and she was amazing with helping me out last minute and during a busy week. My two dogs were in a stressful situation and I was worried about the change of location stressing them out more but I was put at ease by the text and picture updates of both my dogs playing and having a great time. They go out several times a day to play and run and even got to make new doggy friends to play with. I will never use a different boarding facility again!

We recently had Lindsey at Pet Vacations take charge of our previously never left without us 3 1/2 y/o labradoodle. She’s our baby and of course we were very cautious with who we’d trusted with her. We met Lindsey at her location and she showed us around. Mollie, our pup felt very comfortable so we had Mollie do a 24 hr complete day at the board and care. Mollie came back in great shape. Now we feel more comfortable with leaving her for a longer amount of time knowing she’ll be well taken care of. Thanks again Lindsey for your caring support and hope to see you again soon.

Coco loves going here on vacation! She makes friends every time she goes. Staff is very friendly. Anything you need or a question you may have, they will be there!

My dogs love going to Pet Vacations and the staff is always professional and caring. Over the years on the rare occasion when we’ve had to take our dogs to another facility, they are apprehensive, and show stress, especially if we have to take them to a place a second time. However, they are always happy to arrive at Pet Vacations and run right in the door!

Another great stay! It is so nice to go away, and know that my dog is being cared for by a compassionate, knowledgeable provider. I never have to worry about her and know that she’s being well cared for. Thank you, Pet Vacations!!!!!

We had a trip to Yosemite planned and found out we could take him on the trail we planned. Called up a day prior and they were more than accommodating for the 2 nights. Brodie seemed to have enjoyed himself. You cannot beat the price and convenience in respect to going to Yosemite from Sacramento.

This is such a fabulous place, so much room to run and play and when I’m taking Wilson here for his vacation and when we turn onto the road Wilson gets so excited cause he knows he’ll meet a friend or some friends for the time he is there. The staff is so caring and loving to him every time he stays here. This is definitely a two thumbs up from my family and especially Wilson. Thanks for your personalized caring for Gods creatures. 👍👍

First time we used Pet Vacations. We have a finicky dog and hate leaving him. The person there when we dropped him off was really good with him and made us feel good about leaving him. They let him out to play on his own instead of group play. Our dog seemed fine when we picked him up when usually he comes out wining and crying like they tortured him.

We've been boarding out pets here for at least 15 years. We know that they're well taken care of and get plenty of exercise in the doggie play yard. Lindsey has been our fairy dog-mother through a couple of adoptions. Highly recommended.

I can’t recommend country kennels enough! Our family sitter fell through less than a week before Christmas and when i called, they had space! We were so grateful! I was able to tour the facility and talk with staff when i was dropping off my dog. They also take cats which is a plus! They’re my new kennel home away from home!

Our dog had to be carried out of the facility by the staff because he didn’t want to leave LOL, I didn’t hear any complaints from the cat either. Courteous and professional they went above and beyond.

I am so GRATEFUL to have these wonderful people to look after my fur babies! You can tell they really care about your animals. It’s a great location, very secured and maintained. I was nervous leaving my pups for 7 days but once I saw where they would be staying and met the staff I was at ease. This will be my forever kennel for all future boarding needs.. Thank you country kennels! ❤️

We've been taking our dogs to Country Kennels for years now we lov Patti and Chris so much they take such good care of our dogs. Once I let my dogs out of the vehicle they run straight for the gate. I love knowing my dogs are taken care of.

Our two dogs are not indoor animals so bringing them here is less disruptive. As soon as we drive up they get excited. Once they are on leashes they head straight for the gate. They are treated well and cared for. Great place to board our dogs!

Their prices are great and they really seem to care about the pets

The boarding Kennel I always use for my dogs, Very clean and well kept, reasonable prices and great care for your dogs!

Best place for your pets home away from home. Patti and Chris are the best!

I like the owners they're very hospitable and love my pet.

Very friendly and knowledgeable. The only place I will bring my Yorkie and Chihuahua to.

Mary has been there for us in the drop off a hat. My husband requires treatment in SF and we literally have given Mary just hours notice that we need her and she never hesitates to be there. It's nice not to have to worry about my fur babies with her. They're in excellent hands. And she sends me pics of them which cheers me up. She also goes above and beyond with specific things needing to be done at the house (specific lights on, checking mail, garbage can day, etc.) I highly recommend her services, she's been incredible.

Mary watched our 7 cats while we were on vacation, and she did an amazing job! I got pictures of all kitties each day so I could see that they were ok. I could tell that she was nice to them because in the pictures, they really liked her. They enjoyed her company very much. She also made a photo collage of each kitty for me as a nice gift. It gave us a piece of mind to enjoy our vacation. I would highly recommend and will definitely use her services again in the future!

I feel so fortunate to have found Mary to provide care for my dog Doorstop while I am at work. She deeply cares for animals and is super reliable. I feel very comfortable and at ease, knowing that she is there to help. Doorstop loves his walks with Mary!!

Mary is the best sitter! She is very attentive, professional, affordable, and send me tons of update pictures so I didnt miss my kitty too badly while I was away.

If you are looking for a reliable and professional pet sitter. Look no further! We used Mary many, many times over several years and were never disappointed. The dog always went away with us but kitty stayed home and Mary visited daily, keeping Kitty fed and watered and loved! Sometimes we even got videos of Kitty’s play time. Although we no longer have our sweet old Kitty, we cannot recommend Mary any more highly! If you love your cat(s), you will love Mary! ♥️

We had Mary watch our cats and fish while we were gone on vacation. We are so thankful that we did. One of cat's became ill and Mary took her to vet for us, dealt with long phone calls and wait time. She kept us up to date on her condition through text messages and videos. She basically saved our cat's life and we owe her a debt of gratitude. She took special care of our ill cat and the others... We truly appreciate Mary and the service she provides...

Finding someone you trust to take care of a pet while you’re gone tends be stressful and difficult. I have a rescue cat who is a shy and nervous little guy. Because of his disposition, I didn’t want to board him and instead wanted to keep him home in a place he was comfortable and familiar with. Between his and my separation anxiety, I was really anxious about finding someone who would take care of him while my husband and I went on vacation. I am so beyond thankful I found Mary. Her initial house visit immediately put me at ease. We sat down and discussed everything, from the scheduled visits right down to every little detail. Her attention to detail and thoroughness of everything is really amazing. I wanted someone who would spend time with my cat instead of just “come to feed then leave,” so the fact there were options for the amount of time spend per visit was so appreciated. She also offered to take care of additional small tasks around the house while we were out, like watering plants and take out the trash, which I thought was incredibly thoughtful. I knew she was a perfect fit when she got a few pets in from my cat — without a single treat !! I knew he was in the best possible hands. Mary was so wonderful while we were gone. She sent pictures and video updates with each visit so I could see how he was doing (the photo uploaded is one she sent me). She was communicative, responsive, and professional, and I am thrilled to have a go-to sitter whom I truly trust. I cannot recommend Mary or her business highly enough. Thank you Mary !!

We"ve trusted Mary's care for our pets for almost 2 years She's our go to person when we need a pet sitter. Very responsible and her prices for all that she does most importantly to us when we're away our peace of mind is all worth it. We would highly recommend Mary to all our friends & family.

We highly recommend Mary’s Pet Project! Mary came in twice a day for visits with our kitty, Lucy while we were away on our first get away since COVID hit. This was also the first vacation in many years that we were able to really relax because we knew that Lucy was being taken care of so well. Mary sent photos & videos & that was so much appreciated. We love that she tailored her services to our special needs. She was so great with Lucy. It was the first time that Lucy was so calm when we arrived home. Mary also took care of the neighborhood kitty that sleeps on our porch. She made certain to give our home the ‘we are at home’ look & even placed our garbage cans out. Thank you Mary for your kindness, professionalism & a wonderful pet sitting experience.We will definitely use your services again!😻

Our cat is very affectionate and likes attention and being around people at all times. She does not like being left alone. After moving to California 4 years ago, we were searching for a pet sitter. The Humane Society of Stanislaus County recommended Mary's Pet Project after hearing good things about her. She deals with all sorts of animals. My wife and I travel often, sometimes overseas, and need reliable visits to our cat. I was impressed that Mary maintains detailed files about every pet, including Vet and medication info if required. Mary texts updates, including videos of a kitty who is happy at receiving regular visits. She deals with all pet related cleaning, grabs the mail, and takes care of lights and other household adjustments. I would highly recommend her services.

Love this place! They are so awesome. Paradise Doggie Daycare takes great care of your dog and treats them like family. Our fur baby has anxiety and he did very well with them. So glad we found such a wonderful place with wonderful people. Would definitely use them again and recommend them to everyone.

My four-legged, 80 lb. boy is a handful of energy and excitement. He LOVES his "play dates" and grooming sessions at Doggie Paradise. He's been boarded there and the staff are professional, wonderful, caring animal lovers and I for one am very appreciative of their services

Took my daughters dog, baby to this facility. She was soo happy. Good prices and they helped us get her claws trimmed and bathed. They also can send you pics. This is one of them that I received below.

Day care for my Ellie has been wonderful. The people there are so kind.

Best care you could hope to find for your dog(s). I've known the owner, Tine, for a long time. She trains all her people how to correctly care for the dogs. They are loving and caring while setting appropriate boundaries. Plus, it's clean!

I can’t say enough good things about this place. We are from out of town and needed day care for our 13 year old mostly blind and deaf jack russell terrier mix. When we called, they were so welcoming. They invited us to come check out the place prior to leaving our dog. When we arrived we were pleased with the set up, cleanliness, number of staff working, and security cameras. The owner is on site and very pleasant. As our guy was too old to hang out in the small dog play area, they offered to keep him in the reception area with the staff. We were so pleased with this offer. Jacky spent the day and when we picked him up, he was in good spirits (land slept most of the evening. Be prepared to show proof of vaccination. Bottom line: great place, welcoming staff, good price. We felt good leaving our beloved dog with them.

Friendly and professional. My pup had a wonderful time. Great place! I highly recommend

We had left our puppy there for the very first time for three hours and when we went to pick him up he was completely covered in urine. Gross.

Extremely clean and well kept. The girls at Paradise care for the dogs like each dog was their own. Even though I only left my 3 year old terrier for a couple hours (she has separation anxiety) when I picked her up she was very content and comfortable with the girls. They took special care to make sure Sammi was comfortable.

We have we only been there once so far. Staff was really nice but I really would have been more comfortable if I could have seen the area my fur babies were taken to. It was described to me: yes, I am a helicopter mom. I was hoping google would have shown some pictures but only close ups of the dogs. I'm pretty sure I'll give it a 5 start once I'm more comfortable. When I picked up the dogs, they were more than ready to leave after an hour play time. They need time to adjust as well. I'm getting older and they need more play than I can give them daily. I think this will be a good option for them.

We've used Happy Tails several times for cat-care, typically twice-daily visits. Usually our sitter is Rachel, and she's fabulous with our pets. We love the daily updates and confident knowing that she is able to medicate our one feisty younger boy. Highly recommend!

Cheryl is wonderful with our dog Bentley. We get daily reports with pictures. We think he has more fun at her house than ours with all the other dogs he gets to play with. We love knowing he's in good hands and isn't stressed out at a kennel. And Jesse is lovely with our kitten. We come home and our kitten is happy, the litter boxes are clean, the mail has been brought in, and the plants have been watered. And we know someone has been keeping a daily eye on our home. Great peace of mind!

We’ve used this company’s service several times now. All the sitters have been super. We’ve had someone do checks on our kitten, play and feed her. Another time we had someone stay overnight with our puppy and kitten. And another time private boarded our puppy at a sitter’s home. Every time we came back to happy, well cared for pets. All the sitters were respectful and responsible. Great peace-of-mind. We will definitely continue to use them.

Happy Tails Pet Sitting and Tamara gave me peace of mind that my 3-month old puppy would be well taken care. He was fed, played with and loved. Soiled bedding thrown in the washer. I received photos of him playing and an update with each visit. No doubt Happy Tails will be called on in the future.......

This was my first time using Happy Tails. Lindsay was my live in pet/house sitter. My cat is very shy but took to Lindsay immediately. Lindsay sent me updates and photos while I was gone so I had total peace of mind. I also came home to a very clean house. I will definitely use them again!

I took my puppies over there for the first time and they loved it! Tamara was very sweet and caring with them. The place allows them to play, sleep and be around other dogs (socialize) in a safe manner. It's convenient, and it's affordable.

Amazing place!! The facility is great, in the heat of the summer to have an air conditioned space for chows is a must. Tamara was beyond helpful. This was the third place I tried as I was having surgery and, I NEVER board my dogs so it was getting stressful. I had to leave them for a day and I immediately knew I’d found the spot just because I was having trouble getting them into the yard (because of my hip) and one of them slipped out of his collar and got away. Tamaras husband jumped in without hesitation and helped me round him up. Most places I know aren’t even comfortable with having them so to see him react immediately without a hint of apprehension was reassuring. As it turned out, a friend came up to stay with me for recovery so they were able to stay home this time. I’ll be having to go in again next year so I’ll definitely be taking them back!!

We are so happy that we picked Happy Tail Pet Sitting. Tamara and Jerry are really good and reliable on taking care of our Blu. Its so cool that Tamara updated us with pictures of our dog Blu. We can tell that our dog enjoyed his stay with them and he even gave them a thank you kiss💋 as we were leaving...

Our experience with Jessie has been amazing. It’s so nice to leave when you know your dog is in such good hands. She is reliable and always keeps me updated on how my dog is doing. We appreciate her care very much.

Great people and very responsive. We had to head out of town on short notice, but they were flexible in finding us a good fit for our two pups for pet sitting. One of our labs can be a pain and the Happy Tails Petsitting crew was patient and understanding. Great experience with them!

I drive from Reno to have "Auntie Cheri" take care of my 2 furbabies. They are always happy to see her & all worn out when it's time to go home. This is the BEST caring place EVER!🐾💞🐾 …

A Bed and Biscuit is great! Our dogs love it there and Cherie, the owner, loves dogs (and cats) and takes great care of all her guests. Kennels are spacious, well equipped, and there's lots of play time and free roam for the pooches. Plus, Cherie lives on site, a hard requirement for us. I won't leave our pets at a place that does not have someone on site 24/7. Highly recommended!

Cheri treats all the dogs like they were her own. Highly recommend bringing your pet here to try it out. We have been coming here for years, my dog is happy to go and happy when he returns home. Hours are convenient and she's flexible if you are in a bind. We get videos of our dog so that we can see all the fun he is having while we vacation. Can't say enough great things❤️

My girls have been there twice and both times they returned wagging their tails with joy.

Cheri is great with my dog. I feel good about leaving him for short playcare days or long vacations! She is also very reasonable in price. Thank you! Dodie L.

I have left my little Abby at Bed and Biscuit on several occasions. I am super happy with the treatment she recieved.she had a great time and was treated like a member of the family. I highly recommend Bed and Biscuit.

Sadly they don't take dogs over the weight of 30 pounds. But they were wonderful enough to give Recommended places.

We have used this Kennel for several years. I am so sad that they can’t accept dogs over I think 45 pounds anymore. We will miss this kennel.

Best doggie day care and best place for fur babies to stay while family on short/long vacations

Cherie is wonderful! Great with our two dogs.
