Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan & Nataki
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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 & Thomas
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
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!

Courtenay
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 & Susan
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.

Kylie was a great sitter for my dogs. She kept in contact and sent pictures and took them on many walks which they love. She has her own sweet little dog that keeps to herself and was just fine with my 2. I would recommend Kylie to anyone looking for a housesitter
Wendy & Rob
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.

Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa! We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best! First, communication was fabulous from the start. They put me at ease before they ever got here. Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures. They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world). They handled her medications with no problem. It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them! I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!
Barbara
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.
Julia
Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!
Anna
Cindy is an absolutely fantastic sitter and we feel very lucky to have had her care for our dog and our home whilst we went on our family holiday. Her communication before and throughout our sit was fantastic, and she even took our dog to the vet when he needed an unexpected checkup. She took great care of him and sent daily updates including videos and photos of their time together. We could tell that he felt very relaxed in her company. Thank you so much Cindy - it is a real godsend to have someone so kind and caring to take care of your pets and home and we would be delighted to have Cindy back again in future.
vanessa
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
Cynthia
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
JoAnn
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
Sarah
Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously. They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.

They are the best doggy daycare/ boarding we’ve taken our dog to. They are very involved, very educated, and I feel so safe leaving my Louis with them during the work week. I 10000% recommend them over other options in the area. They care greatly about animals, and my puppy comes home in such a good mood and sleepy from all the dog play!! They’re also great photographers and update consistently throughout the day on how your doggo is doing :)
100% Recommend Pine Hill Pet Care! My pup always come home happy and tired. They are great with communication and accommodating with scheduling changes.
Highly recommended. Pine Hill Pet Care cared for our cat in our home when we were out of town and did a phenomenal job. They took excellent care of our cat, sent daily updates via text, and were very friendly and flexible. I will definitely be using their services again.
I've been using Pine Hill for my dog waste pick up for a few months now. #1. Amazing customer service. Very good communication about scheduling. Always professional, polite, and just pleasant to talk to. #2. Reasonable pricing for a month's worth of service. #3. Does an excellent job picking up, even when the grass gets a little long. I highly recommend their pick up service and believe any service they provide would be worth it!
The folks at Pine Hill Doggy Daycare were super professional and sweet. Our pup came back happy and absolutely exhausted after a full day romping around the beach and yard at day care. Pine Hill picked up and dropped off our girl as well as sent video/photo updates during the day. I would highly recommend Pine Hill Doggy Daycare and plan to use them many times in the future!
Melissa was great with our little senior dog. He got along well with her other dogs, and seemed to be having a good time. The homey vibe is what we were looking for instead of a cage and one hour a day exercise. I highly recommend Pine hill Doggy Daycare! Austin Snyder
They always take such good care of Arrow, I love seeing videos of her playing with the other dogs in the woods and on the beach on their Instagram feed, while I'm off on business. Whether it's a dog walk on a long workday, or dog boarding while I'm out of town, I know she's happy and having a blast
Awesome pet sitter-- they did such a good job taking care of my beloved kitties. Thanks again, will always use Pine Hill from now on. :)

My dog loves this place and she does not like every daycare. Definitely recommend for playful dogs, I'm sure all dogs love Happy Dog as well!
The best doggy daycare! My basset Hickory doesn't always find it easy to be social. The Happy Dog folks make sure he is in the right play group for his needs and that he has a true happy experience! They often give me reports when I come for pick up so I know he is getting personalized care not just another face in the crowd. As much as Hickory enjoys seeing his doggy friends I think he likes his people friends even more! The staff at Happy Dog are truly wonderful! Every time we come to drop off my dog is wagging his tail and every time I pick up he has a happy doggy smile. With half day and whole day options prices are very reasonable. This place really does make for a Happy Dog!
Happy Dog is great! We've taken our dog there several times. The staff is extremely friendly. They have indoor kennels and also have covered outdoor play areas for the dogs to run around.
I find myself relating to pet parents who know just how important it is to find a safe and happy place for their animal companions. I found that magical spot in Happy Dog. My pup comes home after a long day of playing and being showered with love and attention.
My dog Ripley absolutely loves it here. I have to roll the back windows of the car up on the way to drop him off, because he once got so excited that he jumped out the window! He is always super happy to come play with his friends and is peacefully tired when I pick him up. The staff are all friendly, calm, professional, and efficient -- and my dog loves them, too. They manage the busy drop off and pick up times of day amazingly well. I had never used a doggy daycare service before this and was very hesitant at first, but I have been put completely at ease, and I know that if I ever need to board Ripley here overnight he will be in good hands. ❤
We were displaced due to the fires. Our beagle was with us and we needed a day care so while my daughter attended remote classes she wouldn't pester her. This place is amazing from the staff to the other dogs they allow. Our dog came back at the end of the day tired and happy. After the first day she hopped right it if the car and ran with the attendants inside she was so thrilled to be there! They are observing very strict and careful covid distancing. Which is so important right now. We were so happy to find them and if we're ever there again I'll 100% bring it dog there.
My dogs, Sienna and Spencer, absolutely love their weekend and daycare getaways to Happy Dog!! They start getting excited on the freeway before dropping them off. Happy Dog staff have been great to them. It feels good to get away and know our fur kids are in good hands!!!
My dog has gotten kicked out of another daycare before for playing too rough because they sorted dogs into 3 categories. I love that happy dogs sorts them based on size AND play style. My boy loves it there! They have better prices than the other place too and are pretty quick with getting my dog out and notifying if there were any issues.
I've taken my dogs to a number of places and Happy Dog is by far the best. My dog is getting older and requires a little extra attention and the staff at happy dog treated her amazing. And when work kept me away for weeks on end they made sure Maggie was in good health and happy. I can't say enough of how awesome this business and staff are. Many thanks !
Staff folks are superb. My Corgi, Zuli nearly knocks the door down to get in at drop off and just as happy to come home, when I pick her up. I’ve brought my dogs to Happy Dog daycare and boarding since 1998. Always a great experience for the dogs and for me!

THE ANSWER TO OUR PRAYERS We recently left our 3 dogs for a week at Whisker City, in Fortuna, CA. (all Belgian Malinois X German Shepherd Dogs) We were a bit anxious as our dogs haven't been away from home more than an overnight in their lives. The facility is clean and inviting and full of animal loving, caregivers. We picked them up this morning and, of course, they were happy to see us but I think they might have been as happy to stay with their new friends as to go home with us. The personal care that the babies received was unbeatable and the pricing is very reasonable. If I could give 10 STARS I would. Thanks to all the wonderful caregivers at Whisker City, Sincerely, Sherman, Buster and Emma

I had my puppy Penelope stay in their care while I was at work for over 4 months. They were professional, kind and engaging with my puppy! I was blow away by how kind and caring they were! I received daily pictures of her play time and any questions I asked were answered. My puppy had the highest quality care with puppy ply, puppy art time and even a bubble party! I HIGHLY recommend this business to anyone who is looking for care. 10/10!!
I am a travel nurse and needed someone to take care of my sweet pup, Ollie, while I was at work. Lindsay came through and was there for me when I needed it most! She took Ollie in like he was her own and took such great care of him. I never worried when I dropped him off. I could tell Ollie loved going there because he basically ran out of the car as soon as we pulled up to her house! Lindsay is extremely caring, kind, flexible, and communicative. I love that she limits how many dogs she takes per day to maintain safety. She also sends updates and pictures throughout the day so you can see your pup in action. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a doggie daycare that is fun, safe, and affordable. She is absolutely wonderful!
When I got my new puppy last spring, I asked my vet if she could recommend a puppy friendly pet sitter. Her response " Pet Sitter Extraordinaire" with Lindsey's contact attached. Best thing that could have happened for me!! Lindsey is so incredibly wonderful in every way and goes above and beyond to ensure your dog's safety and comfort in her home. Her home is literally my dog's second home. So highly recommended!!
100% recommend! Lindsey will take care of your pets as if they were her own. She's sweet, kind, professional, easy to talk to and incredibly caring. I've even recommended her to a few of my cleaning clients and they were blown away by her care of their pets. I would trust her everyday with my love fluffs.
Lindsey and her husband Chris are so caring and so attentive to all the dogs they care for! Whenever I have to leave town I know my pups are in good hands with miss Lindsay. She goes the extra mile for my doggos! She even gave them all Christmas presents. She bakes them homemade treats and is a registered vet tech! So not only are they safe, I can rest well ok owing that they are being looked after by a veterinary professional! Thank you Lindsey! Loofy and Cody go crazy when we get there!! They love it
Paws and Wet Noses is one of the best! I’m one of those pet parents who is WAAAAY over protective of the care my animals receive. But I know that I can trust this team with any type of care. My diabetic pet needs multiple daily medications and they were able to take care of him so well it was like I had never left. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommend!
This place knows how to take care of your pet. With Lindsey's veterinary experience and their obvious love for animals, I can't think of a better place.
Seemed nice but couldn't help me!

I have been a dog owner my entire life. Taking vacations away from my fur babies can be very stressful. We have never boarded our dogs and we have always had a pet sitter come to the house. We just returned from a 10 day vacation to find our babies happy and well cared for and house spotlessly clean! This is our first time using Mike’s services and he will forever be our first call going forward. We have three dogs, one of them is a senior, another one requires special medication including weekly injections, and the third is very high energy and needs a lot of exercise. All of their needs were met flawlessly. We got daily updates with pictures and videos and could see they were having a fantastic time with Mike. We are truly grateful for the excellent service and love Mike gave our babies. Looking forward to future vacations knowing that Our precious babies will be loved and cared for a while we are away.
Mike took great care of our cats and pet chicken while we were away. He sent us updates and pictures of the cats, made sure our senior kitty got his meds, and responded to texts quickly anytime we reached out.
Mike gets an A+ Mike understands how special my cats are to me, so he happily agreed to mimic some of their daily (feeding and playing) routines to maintain normalcy in my absence. But at the same time, he had his own "pet voice" he used with them and developed friendships with them. He sent me short videos and photos of them while I was away and responded promptly to texts I sent him. When I got home, I could barely notice that he house/pet sat there for a week. And my cats pretended like they had noticed I'd been gone. That was a good sign. I highly recommend Mike as your house/pet sitter. He's been a professional in the Humboldt Region for decades and is true to his dependable reputation. The Peace of Mind I had while I was gone was worth many times more than I paid. This is the pet sitter you want if you don't want to worry about your pets while you're gone. But he won't be available the third week in October ever! I'm calling it right now!
Mike Seeber was a great house/dogsitter! The dogs enjoyed their time with him and got a lot of walks. The house was spotless when we returned. I highly recommend! Jan Ross
Mike is very caring and sensitive to our dog Sadie and he’s very conscientious about her needs and her schedule. We completely trust Mike to take good care of her and our home.

Chris was extremely accommodating for our large breed dog. He stayed for two nights and had a wonderful time. Chris took him to the local park and sent us pictures of his adventures at the end of each day to reassure us he was doing great. He is very reasonably priced, and we highly recommend his services for even the most attached pet parents!

Unfortunately never had a good experience at this place. Front desk is rep is unprofessional and disorganized. My dog always comes back with fleas.
Boarded my puppy here for 4 days while we were out of town. No issues at all. My Honey git the VIP treatment and it was her first time being around other dogs. When we picked Honey up she was happy and had no issues. The staff was great with her while I was there and they seem really knowledgeable about dogs. Plan to use their services again.
You can rest assured your animals will be well cared for here and may not even want to go home.
I love this place. Thanksgiving was the first time we left our dog with VIP. I have to say they were excellent. I called to check on our sweet pup and they weren't even irritated. They called me back and updated me on everything he was up to. When my husband picked our dog up, he learned that they spoiled him. Lol I love it! It gave me so much comfort to know he was doing so well being away from us. And that he was treated so well. We've already got another boarding session signed up for him. We will continue to board here. We love it!
Just traveling through and left our dog here for daycare for a few hours and he loved it! The staff was very friendly and our dog had a blast! I would recommend this place and will use them again when we come back out this way!
Our pups were worn out from playing at VIP for 2 days of daycare while we got to experience the beauty of the redwoods, Trinidad Beach area, Lady Bird Park and Avenue of the Giants. We would definitely have Scooby & Sissy stay there again. Staff was great and informative. ...it's an older building so don't let that hinder you in any way. The setup is great just.ask staff to let you tour around.
I have helped out on occasion 1st It is the cleanest kennel facilty. I have EVER seen, more than necessary which says it All Every "guest:" (dog) no matter how spoiled, previously traumatized, quirky, annoying,or flat out plum stupid is treated with respect and dignity. The owner has essentially spent her life in this pursuit with dedication although its sorta beneath her abilities gifts and intellect, you could almost think its almost as important as she is. I don't say that out of adoration. My onbjectivety is unassailable, inexorable and beyond question. I'm glad my dogs didn't know about this- and love Genna more than me. Yes, yes she's sooooooo beautiful, I know I'm so sick of hearing it!!!
This place is great. The workers are very nice. And my dog was well taken care of and happy.
My little dog did so well here while I was out of town. He was happy and not anxious or nervous at all, they took great care of him.
I made sure to write a review on every page of this because of how much I love and appreciate this daycare. The staff is amazing, my puppy leo loves them and it has helped so so much with our very hyper fur baby.
