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.

Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already. She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it. She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand. She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side. We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of. We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!
My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
Emily and Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one. We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them. Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him. He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here. So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation. Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.
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.
Duha was such a light to have in our home while we were away. She kept us updated with beautiful photos of our dogs throughout her stay and didn’t leave their side once. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other sitter and I truly hope this won’t be the last time she sits for us.
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.
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

My little puppies love it here!! They have been to Little Ponderosa the past 3 days, the past two days, they run to the front door! They do tours on Monday/Tuesday too! My favorite part of the day now is getting pictures of my little babies playing 😍 …
They are extremely pet oriented here. Our dogs love going here and the prices are reasonable for what you get. Oh, and our dogs have their first album coming out soon!
We have boarded our Bongo at Little Ponderosa for several nights, as well as taken him for Doggie Daycare on a few occasions. Bongo has gotten his nails trimmed there twice as well. He is so excited to see his human and dog friends there. I love the messages and pictures the staff sends us to let us know our pup is doing fine and having fun. Great staff and clean facility!
Could not have any better place for our Brandi to visit. Perfect for all of your pets needs. Boarding, Daycare and not to mention Annette's training! Brandi also loves her baths and nail treatments!
This is the BEST kennel we have ever used and we are so grateful to have found them!!! We have owned multiple Australian Cattle Dogs, and our current dog Bailey can be a handful. We struggled for several years trying to find a kennel that would love Bailey and understand the nature of this breed. Multiple kennels didn't work out. But from the get go, the team at the Ponderosa has not only made it work, but they love our dog Bailey, they play with him regularly (he needs lots of exercise), they send us photos, and he is happy and healthy when we pick him up! The Ponderosa is great with all dogs, they adapt their services to meet the needs to insure the best care possible. Each dog has lots of room to play, with and indoor/outdoor kennel and play yards. We are so grateful for the Ponderosa -- to finally have peace of mind knowing our special needs dog is safe and happy. Thank you so much to the owners and staff. We love you guys!
Super passionate caring hard working individuals that love your dog just as much as you do. They send pictures to you to ease your worries and love what they do. Highly recommend! Can I check myself in?!
We have been bringing our year old Lab rescue to Little Ponderosa for daycare. The staff is wonderful and it's easy to see that they enjoy their job and are great with the dogs. Additionally, it's the cleanest kennel I've ever been in. Our boy is always happy from a day of play there.
Harley, our Springer Spaniel, loves his visits to Little Ponderosa. He jumps out of the car, runs into the office and heads back to the boarding area without a backward glance. He loves the play time and we love seeing the pictures the staff sends of him playing with other dogs. We appreciate knowing he is happy and well cared for while we are out of town.
Doolittle so appreciates the warm greeting and (name) recognition when we goes for a stay. You can add on services (bath, nails, etc) to be done upon your return and daily reports are sent so you can "oooh" and "awww" over your pet enjoying his or her stay.
Our dogs love Little Ponderosa Pet Resort! We love the fact that they send daily photos of your pets having a great time! We can go on vacation and know they are well taken care of!❤️
I love this place. I have been bringing my dog chip (2 year old dachshund) for the past year and he has been having a blast. He has made so many friends and every time I get off work and come pick him up he is just the happiest pup in the world. I recently took a vacation out of the country and I trusted them with everything in me to take care of my dog. I called a couple of times to check on him and was told he was going great! Which I was so happy to hear as he means the world to me. Chip will keep enjoying their daycare and the prices are so reasonable. I am very grateful to have been recommended this place as all the other ones I have tried didn’t treat their dogs the best. I highly recommend lakeforest I have even spoken to the manager personally about my concerns and she was just a delight and the staff are all so welcoming and sweet. For a dog kennel they always manage to make it smell so clean and refreshing. It has just been the best experience chip and I have had. ❤️
I have boarded my dog here and taken them to the next door vet for years and they have never done me wrong! My dog always comes back happy and is just as excited when he comes back to play with his kennel friends. Lexy and the whole staff are super kind and make me feel like family.
We had several ok experiences with Lake Forest Boarding, but the most recent one has spoiled it all. We have a very friendly golden doodle who we trusted in the care of Lake Forest for just over a week while we were away on a summer vacation. We booked him for playtime everyday as well as a kennel bath on the last day. We were called a few days before pick up to inform us that they were not going to be able to give him a bath, not a huge deal. We picked him up, prepared for the stinky pup that we have come to expect after 10 days of running and playing in a boarding facility with other dogs. Instead, he smelled like the shampoo we had him groomed with just days before we dropped him off. After reviewing his check sheet, it became clear that he did not have time out of the kennel each day, or even most days. It was documented that he had one afternoon in playtime. Upon further investigation, his check sheet was signed off that he was given food on days he was not even there while it was not initialed that he was fed and walked every day that he was there. Thank goodness he didn’t require medication, because who knows if/when he had been given any medication. When we brought this to their attention, we were given several different stories and the blame was continuously passed onto someone else. The only resolution was that we were not going to have to pay for the playtime that he did not receive… We did not drop our dog off to spend 10 days trapped in a kennel alone. I am very concerned with how Lake Forest looks after for the pets we trust in their care. We will absolutely not be using this boarding facility in the future, and would not recommend this kennel to anyone who wants their pet to be appropriately cared for while they are away.
Horrible! Cole answered the phone, and was told they do not accept new patients, however they advertise at that. I was referred to by a previous customer who will no longer be going as well, due to the rudeness of Cole. I was told to give them a call, as the other groomer was having car trouble, and was told to call and get the other groomer to take my puppy, and he told me that that’s not possible, as there is not room, and they are not taking new clients. You need to inform your groomers of that, before accepting others and giving false information! If one is accepting, and the other says the whole team isn’t accepting? Then who is lying. Cole has horrible customer service, and shouldn’t be able to communicate with customers if he can’t get his facts straight.
my dog loves it here! the staff here are lovely and are always super friendly! i love the fact that my baby always comes home happy, healthy, and tired from all of the playing! ❤️❤️
A+ All Around Had my dog groomed and boarded many times over a five years until his passing of liver cancer. They are a caring and compassionate business.
I have been taking my 3 1/2 year old German shepherd dog to Lake Forest boarding, daycare and grooming for well over 2 years. She goes at least 4 days a week, either full or 1/2 days. I feel so lucky to have this wonderful place to take my dog. She is so well taken care of by the highly competent, professional, friendly staff. The entire staff is knowledgeable about animal behavior, socialization, training, playtime, etc. If there are any concerns, someone will call me right away. In all of the time we have taken our dog to Lake Forest for boarding or daycare, we have not had a single bad day. The fact that they offer half days at half price is convenient and economical. The facility is clean and sanitized every day. All of the staff love the dogs and have their best interests in mind. They are open 7 days a week, which helps those clients who work on Sundays. I honestly don't know what I would do without this wonderful place and the people who work there. I highly recommend Lake Forest to anyone who needs a warm, friendly, caring place to take their beloved pets.
Love the work but as for being professional they need help they never return calls and cancel appointments and no call back to reschedule very unprofessional will never go back
Very impressed with this boarding facility! The employees are polite and helpful and remembered my dogs after just one visit! They also offer unscheduled tours of the facility and that transparency made me feel so much more comfortable. My dogs are always excited to go go here and come home tired from running and playing! Highly recommend!
I hesitated to write this review and wanted to give our dog a week to re-adjust to being home but her behavior has not changed. The first time we took our dog here and came to pick her up she came home with a wagging tail! This past time we picked up our dog, the worker brought our dog out with her collar on incorrectly and her head was down with no tail wagging. She seemed very unhappy which is unlike our dog who enjoys meeting new people and playing with other dogs. Since we have brought her home, her behavior has been different. She doesn't like to be cuddled now and is very jumpy when you go to pet her until she realizes it's one of us. We called to ask if anything had happened and of course the response was no, we proceed to ask what their daily routine is at the kennel and could not be provided with one. If I was provided with some information about her stay (i.e how she interacted with the other dogs, if she ate all of her food, how long she played outside, anything), I may have felt a little better about her stay but with no information it concerns me. I would not recommend this place if you want your dog to enjoy their time at a kennel, she was only there for two days she should not have been traumatized. I would like to note the vet at Lake Forest Animal Hospital, Dr. Holly, has been very responsive with trying to touch bases with us to figure out what has happened and has provided a few recommendations to help ease her anxiety. I do recommend Lake Forest Animal Hospital with five stars but we will be taking our dog to another kennel the next time she has to be boarded.
Excellent Dog Walker and Pet Sitter Drew has been walking our dog five days a week for over a year. He also takes care of our dog at home when we travel. He is trustworthy, reliable, and excellent with our dog. Our dog enjoys his walks so much that he sits in front of the door for an hour each morning waiting for Drew’s arrival! Drew has always treated him with great kindness. He clearly loves what he does and it shows. I have recommended him to all my friends who own dogs. Thank you, Drew!
Drew is a wonderful blessing in our lives. He has been caring for our Labrador since she was a puppy and I couldn't be happier with the service he provides. Our dog loves him and is always so excited to see him! He is a hard worker, very professional, incredibly courteous and conscientious and always positive and upbeat, even when the weather is less than pleasant. He does a great job communicating with me about each walk and any concerns he has about her. It is evident how much he cares about her and the high level of pride he takes in his work. The dogs, and the families, he takes care of are more than just a job to Drew. He is a truly wonderful person and I am quick to recommend him to friends.
Highly recommend! Drew is so professional and easy to work with. We knew our husky was in good hands.
Drew has been walking my Beagle, Katy, for about two years. Katy adores him. He's very careful to walk her the way I want, and double checks when the weather is inclement. He takes a spray bottle with water on very hot days to spray her to keep her cool. He is always upbeat, no matter the weather, and always asks if there is anything else he can do.
We have used Drew Kinnier, who owns Dogs Doo It, for years. Our wire fox terrier, Finn, adores Drew. He is kind & courteous & extremely reliable. He has watched Finn for a week or more & for shorter weekend trips. We have him come four times a day because terriers, if you have one you will know this, need a LOT of exercise & Finn is quite spoiled & needs a lot of attention, too. Drew spends quality time walking Finn in our neighborhood. He is gentle & even tempered. Finn doesn’t like wearing a harness so we use a lead on his collar & that makes it more important that who ever walks him is gentle & doesn’t pull or yank on the lead. Terriers can also be strong willed and again, kindness wins the day. We also feed Finn a raw diet which takes a bit more time than kibble &Drew handles it with ease. We have known Drew most of his life & we highly recommend him. I would be happy to answer your questions if you dm me.
I could not be more pleased with the service provided! My pup is happy and excited everytime Drew visits. Not to mention the added bonus of knowing that no matter how busy my schedule, my dog always receives attention. I would happily recommend this service to any of my friends. Whether it be regularly scheduled or an overnight trip, I know my animal is in good care.
I would recommend Dogs Do It to anyone looking for a qualified and knowledgeable pet services business. The owner is very genuine and considerate. I will be using them again in the future!
He does a great job. Very thorough. Nelson loves him.
They did SUCH A GREAT job on my girl! She’s a little crazy, the staff was understanding, supportive, and very kind to her. She had such a great time, she keeps trying to go to the car now! Yay!
There should be more than 5 stars to really show how much we appreciate the fantastic way all the folks at Precious Paws take care of our Miniature Australian Shepherd Jack. We went by a few days ago so I could show Susie the location of the new facility and Jack got really excited when he recognized where he was. He gets so excited when he goes for haircuts and is happy when we pick him up from a visit. He loves everybody at Precious Paws and it's obvious he's had a great time. Thank you all at PP for your great work.
Great place , great job they do at your request of what you want done to your pet. Staff us wonderful and kid and patient.
My sweet pup loves going to Precious Paws! She is an older girl and is so well loved and cared for! The new facility is awesome and Melissa and her team do an EXCELLENT job loving on my sweet girl! Thank you all!
I took both of my pomeranians here to get Grooming done they offer great services and my babies looked and smelled amazing!! Definitely recommend
I have been going to Precious Paws for 4 years now. They are always so friendly and kind and they’re very gentle with my fur babies. 10/10 recommend!!!
They answered the phone and I was able to book an appointment within 5 days. The ladies were very friendly and helpful. In 2 hours my doodle received a great summer cut. He is so clean and soft. Thank you for a great experience.
Yesterday was the 1st visit at Precious Paws Dog & Cat Grooming for Angus. He loved it!! I was very pleased with his grooming. Melissa is so nice and welcoming and you can tell she truly loves animals!! The place is clean, nice and very welcoming!! Thank you so much for taking care of my sweet boy!
Rolly had his first grooming today with Jill. He was a little nervous going in but she was soo understanding and he felt very comfortable with her. Jill did an amazing job! My little fella looks soo adorable and he was soo happy when i picked him up. He’s been showing off his cut all day now 😀. Thank you Precious Paws and Jillian for a wonderful experience! We will definitely be repeat customers!!
I have been getting my mini schnauzer's hair cut there for the last year. It's always a friendly calm environment that my dog doesn't mind going to. I called on short notice and she was able to board both my schnauzer and weenie dog for a week. She text me! She sent videos! If I text at 9 at night she responded! I can't explain how awesome it felt to not have to worry about my 4 legged babies! When I came for pick up, she scheduled pick up around me. The dogs were bathed, hair cuts, and toe nails trimmed! Just an overall 5 star experience for my family! Not to mention her staff! I could go on and on. If your looking for someone to put your faith and trust in, look no further!
Love this place! Only local place with an amazing set up for bathing and grooming your pet yourself to save on costs..I highly recommend them!
Petcraze kept our sweet girl while traveling and I felt confident she was in good hands. A customer who was ahead of me saw I was boarding our doggo and gave high praise of Petcraze's facilities. The front desk folks are warm and organized. If this is your first time boarding be prepared to spend some time filling out a long intake form. Maybe 15min or so. I'm glad they asked these questions.
The self wash stations for bathing your dogs is wonderful! They provide several different shampoos and conditioner, as well as towels and grooming tools and aprons. The fee is based on size of dog, but is well worth it. We will be frequent visitors! Thank you for having this option for pet owners.
Great place to board your pets! My dogs had such a great time and good pricing for what you get. Will continue to use their services.
Great place! They have pet care products, toys, food & supplements, boarding options, and grooming. They also have options for a self-serve pet wash where all of the shampoos, conditioner, brushes, and other grooming products are available for use at no additional cost. They have a High velocity air dryer in there also . I believe they charge based on weight. I'm able to wash my large breeds for less than $20 a piece which makes my pockets happy. The staff is very friendly and helpful if you need anything. I always enjoy spa days for the doggies. You can tell they have a love for the animals there. Seems like more than "just a job" for them 😊
We give Pet Craze 5 stars because they earned it!!! We use Pet Craze for daycare, boarding, grooming and purchasing dog food. The customer service here is great and the staff members are very knowledgable and friendly. So if you need a safe, fun, loving place for your dog to groom, play or stay this is the place for you.
Groomer was great! Easy in, easy out! Dogs looked great! Price was reasonable.
One stop shop for your pup!!! They seriously have anything you may need... including the kitchen sink... or maybe that was a giant dog bath! 😂😂😂 …
Chloe has been getting her bath here since she was a baby! Very friendly atmosphere!
When we are are in town and need to quickly wash the pet babies we always stop in Pet Craze for a self wash . The service & cleanliness is consistent- that’s what keeps us coming back! We have 2 70 pounds dogs = $36 which is a reasonable price. I would recommend bringing your own dog cologne, the one available to self wash customers is not too pleasant and wears off quickly .overall great experience each time !
Our dog struggles with reactivity, resource guarding, and anxiety, and finding boarding for her is a constant challenge. Ann Marie agreed to meet with us and give our dog a try when nobody else in the area would. She took the time to meet with us on multiple occasions to create positive associations and get a feel for how to best handle our dog. Ultimately, we had a successful 5 day boarding experience! Thank you Ann Marie and team for all that you do!
I had to board my dog for the first time ever and he had the best experience. Every person I interacted with was so kind and helpful. I did almost all my communication by e-mail and they were very responsive and helpful. Even with my appointment being very late notice and having to move it a day. They never acted like it was a burden and were always willing to help. I really cannot say enough how much it meant to deal with people who were so warm and welcoming. It really helped alleviate my anxiety of boarding my boy. I would certainly recommend this kennel.
We have used County Air Vacation Kennels exclusively since 2017 and our beloved dogs have received exceptional care there. Both my husband and I could not recommend Country Air more highly. The owner and staff are keenly attuned to the health and well-being of the dogs they care for. Roanoke is lucky to have such facility.
Country Air Vacation Kennels has been AMAZING to me and my dog, Conan. Conan is not friendly to people other than his own family and I wasn’t sure if I’d ever find a kennel to care for him when we vacationed. Ann-Marie has been a true skilled professional from the beginning. She took a chance with Conan and has taken great care of him for the last 3 years every time we have needed her. I can’t give her enough stars here!
We so grateful for Anne-Marie and her wonderful staff at Country Air Vacation Kennels! She's been caring for our dog for years and we can't imagine taking him anywhere else. The personal attention and care, the extensive knowledge and experience of Anne-Marie and her staff, the professionalism, and the love for animals makes this the perfect place to take our fur baby.
Ann-Marie is such a fantastic person to kennel your dog with! She really helps alleviate the stress of leaving your dog by knowing they're being left with someone who will truly care for your dog and has their best interest and comfort in mind. Highly recommend Country Air Vacation Kennels to anyone in need of a place for your dog to stay. Also worth noting that Ann-Marie is accepting of reactive and nervous dogs and offers special treatment for those that need it!
Ask them about their training option, it's absolutely worth it! Such a wonderful place and fantastic owner. The location is also magnificent, it's much better than in a city setting. The dogs get near-constant attention, and stimulation. My dog was a little nervous at first, but when I came back she didn't want to leave. Update: I've used this fine outfit for several months now, because my dog absolutely loves them! She knows as soon as I turn onto the road that she's in for a fun little vacation with her doggo friends, and a staff that truly cares. 6/5 stars, you can rest easy knowing nothing bad will happen to your furry friends.
I cannot say enough good things about Country Air Vacation Kennels. I first met Anne-Marie when my dog trainer was looking for well-trained, low-energy dogs for my dog to socialize with. My dog was never properly socialized as a puppy and was fearful of almost everything, including humans and other dogs. Anne-Marie brought in the perfect dog to compliment my nervous one. Well-trained, well-behaved, polite, and low-energy. Then, when I was looking for a boarding place, a friend of mine told me to check out Country Air because they had such good experiences there in the past. Surprise surprise, Anne-Marie was the person running it! I was incredibly nervous to leave my dog there, as I hadn't boarded her before and because by nature my dog is incredibly scared and nervous. Ann-Marie did absolutely everything to make me and my dog feel comfortable, up to and including allowing me to check in on my dog multiple times to make sure she was okay. My dog even surprised me and ended up making friends with some of the more low-energy dogs while I was away! I've left my dog at Country Air twice now and every time I am blown away with how much time and care they put into the animals they oversee. I am and will continue to be a repeat customer here. If you are nervous about leaving your dog for the first time (or even the 100th time), just know that your dog is safe in their capable, caring hands.
Rural kennel but not too far out. Owner and employees are super friendly. I have boarded my dog twice and the whole process was smooth. The dogs have some play time everyday so I paid extra to have my dog bathed. We will be going back!
Country Air Kennels is a caring and affordable boarding option for Roanoke area residents. The new owner is a certified dog trainer and groomer and makes certain that our dogs are well taken care of and safe while they are staying at the kennel. We have 3 dogs and have used Ann-Marie’s private boarding services for years prior to her purchase of Country Air and have never been anything but pleased with her level of customer service. Our dogs are always excited to go see her and tired from playing and having fun when we get them back! My mom also uses Country Air for her dog and the staff was kind and flexible when she needed to change her return date due to weather issues this past January. A hidden jewel in the Roanoke Valley.
Pet Cabana loved my sweet Kevin truly like she was their own dog. I don't think I could have taken better care of her during the day myself. They left on her so much and knowing that she was at a place during the day that she was loved and cared for made me feel much more confident being at work and knowing my little puppy was having a good time. Suzette always did a phenomenal job grooming her and she was always so so happy to go to daycare and play with all her little friends. We started taking her to day care at just 8 weeks old and the first day I was so worried leaving her but quickly knew that she was in an excellent place that was taking great care of her. They let the dogs play and develop friendships but also keep a really close eye to keep them all safe. Right after Kevin got spayed I had asked that they just keep an eye on her and they were extremely diligent to make sure she kept her cone on and stayed in the office with them so they could monitor her movement. I have recommended all of my friends take their dogs here because I am confident that the dogs that they have in their care will feel safe, loved, and entertained.
I cannot praise the owner and her staff enough. We moved to Jacksonville, NC from Forest. My husband and I are disabled and we have a beautiful rough collie. Lady had enjoyed daycare and grooming at Pet Cabana before we moved. I tried 3 different groomers in NC. They scrubbed her undercoat and by the third one, her coat was awful! Matted and tangled. She hated going and I had to pick her up before they were done. We traveled all the way to Forest to see if Suzette could save her coat.. Just Look!Posting on website!
Hannah is my pups groomer and she is AMAZING! Professional, does great work, great customer service! Suzette is blessed to have her on the Pet Cabana Team! Hannah takes great care of my babies and I feel completely comfortable leaving them with her everytime! 💕 …
Miss Felicia should get a million stars !!!! I cant express enough gratitude , she was so sweet and patient with my yorkie boy boddie.I've taken him to one particular place for several years and they just became so rude and impatient with his scaredness to where they told me he would have to be medicated before they would touch him. He is just a baby, and when i called her when my boss referred me to Pet Cabana ,she was very understanding and would get him and take care of him . I can't thank her enough for her patients and sweetness she showed my sweet baby boy.
Our dogs are well cared for there. We are regulars.
I have been looking for a new groomer for my dog as the old one hurt him the last time he was there. I saw this place in passing the other day so I decided to call. The lady that answered was very rude. I could hear her huffing and puffing in the background as if it was an inconvenience to do her job. You never get a second chance to make a first impression.
Excellent service. Highly recommend it! 🙌✨ …
They saved my girls coat! We will drive from Jacksonville 4 times a year. Nobody else will touch my Lady girl!
Very poor communication. Owner agreed to refund but would never issue it. Do not recommend.
Very gentle with my dog when grooming her. She seems to enjoy her overnight stays there.
We have been taking our dogs here for 3 years and if dogs could speak our language they'd say they feel like part of the family! We always take our own dog food and beds simply because a dogs diet and bedding should always be the same as to what they sleep in everyday. The owners are people who truly care about your pet.
I’ve taken my dogs to the Barkin Bungalow for several years now and always had the best experience. The owners are extremely dedicated and you can see how much they love the dogs who stay with them. I always feel like I’m leaving my Doberman with a friend and they’ve gone above and beyond to make sure he’s given the best care. I highly recommend them!
We have used Barkin Bungalow for years for our dogs, cats and even our parakeet, and the pets seem to enjoy going there. It is very obvious they treat our animals well and they love animals, which makes me confident to leave my pets in their hands. No complaints, just compliments to them!
Please do not take your pets here. I am currently sitting at the emergency vet waiting on my 8 month old Goldendoodle and to pay the $725 bill. We dropped our two dogs off on Wednesday at 4:00. I had given them a bath just before taking them. We picked them up Friday at 4:00 pm so they were only there two nights. When they brought them out they were matted and there is no way to completely explain the way they smelled. It was the strongest urine smell I have ever smelled. They were completely covered in it and God only knows what else. We had to ride home with the windows down and I had to bathe them both immediately when we got home. At 2:30 am our Goldendoodle began throwing up. She threw up constantly and began throwing up nothing but blood. I brought her to the emergency vet and was advised that she has a severe gastrointestinal infection and that it is a result of severe stress and trauma. They advised that it was a direct result of being boarded here these past few days. Please, please do not take your pets here. Save them the trauma and you the money.
My dog has been boarding at Barkin Bungalow for many years now and they have always taken excellent care of him. Small, family owned business that truly cares about animals.
I was only dropping a pet off for my friend. I'd never take my pet here. Office was unkept and they seem unprofessional and a bit rude. I had to pick the dog up less than an hour later because they said she was chewing through the wire cage. What kind of kennel has wire cages a dog can chew through? Save yourself and your pet, pick somewhere else.
The large dog runs are a nice size. Bring a crate if you don't want your dog sleeping on the cement floor. They will help you bring it in. The owners were friendly but the facility is inadequate for my dog to stay there longer than one night in these ways: Large kennel room doesn't have natural light. The dogs never go out in the grassy yard that appears to be for this purpose. They only go in a small gravel-and-weeds zone to do their business, not enough room to exercise and they do not take them out on leash for a larger walk. The dogs aren't vetted to be able to play together. Their insurance does not allow dogs to play together. However for that reason if you need your dog to be physically safe for a night cheaply, in a pinch this might be OK.
I have been using Barkin Bungalow for about 2 years now and Bella comes home happy and seems to get treated well. Awesome place and would highly recommend!
Nice people that love animals.
Been taking Bear (my dog) here for about 3 years. I have not had any problems with the service and Bear comes home happy...i would recommend
It is only because of Patsy that I am able to fully relax on my vacation. One of my three kitties, Bambi has epilepsy and must take meds daily. She is also very timid and shy. Patsy is so patient and follows instructions precisely. The rates and visits are extremely reasonable. I highly recommend Home Sweet Home! (She also takes care of bearded dragons!) Phenomenal service!
All of the above words and phrases fit Patsy perfectly ! Thanks to her I have the ability to be able to relax on a vacation that I wait all year for! Great quality, Professional, Reliable, and Responsive...and best of all: Peace of mind! I moved to Lynchburg last year and called Patsy 1 month after moving here. I'd never used a pet sitter. Upon meeting her, she immediately put me at ease! She texted me a couple of times letting me know how my Big Fatty was doing! If I'd asked she probably would have texted me every day! It was after a few days that I realized that I hadn't been worrying about my kitty! Thank you Patsy and I'll see you next year! From, Lorna M. and Big Fatty
Patsy is amazing..
Best pet sitter around
Everyone takes the best care of my 3 cats. She/they send me texts after every visit with adorable pictures! Highly recommend. Very trustworthy and reliable.
Always the best care! I have senior, special needs dogs and Kiki makes sure they get their medicines, has patience with their quirks and make me feel comfortable going on vacation or going to work each day as she checks in them weekdays. If you want the BEST, closest to your own, call Kiki! 😁🐶🐾🐈 …
We loved Kiki watching our dogs. Our dogs are older so need some extra loving and cleaning up after. Kiki was so kind and loving to them. I think they were sad we came home she spoiled them so much. She stays in contact with you giving you updates each visit including pictures. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Kiki is wonderful! I cannot say enough good things about Kiki. She is so kind and passionate about caring for your pets. She is truly a blessing! I have always been very nervous about leaving my dogs, but Kiki made me feel comfortable while I was away visiting family. I had Kiki do overnights and home visits during the day. I have two dogs with very different personalities and she was great with both of them. I loved that she sent me frequent updates with pictures to let me know how they were doing. She brought some different toys and treats to help keep them entertained on the days it rained while I was gone. One of my dogs is on the more timid side and by the second day she was out with Kiki instead of hiding in the bedroom (which she normally does she when I leave town). Kiki also made sure my dog’s medication was given and any and all training rituals were followed while I was gone. Additionally, I had my flight canceled and Kiki was flexible and was able to care for my dogs two extra days at the last minute. I had no concerns about my dogs being with Kiki while I was gone and I will definitely be using her next time I go out of town!
Kiki did a wonderful job taking care of our kitties while we were away. Loved the pictures and updates she sent with each visit. Will definitely use her services again. She is very caring reliable and very through in making sure your wishes are met.
If you need a professional pet sitter you must choose Kiki’s Pet Care. We recently had Kiki care for our cat Jasper while we were away on vacation. This was our first time using a service and we were a bit nervous. She came in advance of our trip to meet Jasper and we were so impressed with her questions and the detailed notes she recorded to make sure Jasper would receive the proper care. We left for our trip knowing that he would be in great hands in our absence. Kiki sent daily video and pictures showing the excellent care he was receiving and how comfortable he was in her presence (he can be disagreeable at times). We were 100% pleased with his care and Kiki’s Pet Care is who we will always call in the future.
We hired Kiki to stay overnight at our house and visit several times during the day to feed, walk and play with our 2 dogs while we were out of the country. She also dropped them off and picked them up from daycare. I am usually a nervous wreck thinking about leaving my dogs if I go out of town, but I was completely at ease with Kiki and Amber taking care of them. They even downloaded WhatsApp on their phones so they could send us updates and photos while we were gone. What an amazing find! I've already recommended Kiki's services to a co-worker. Will definitely use her again!
Kiki was a lifesaver for our two dogs! My wife and I were nervous about dropping our dogs off at a local boarding facility due to their anxiety and not being familiar with the environment, so we were looking up different options and came across Kiki's site. Her response times were very quick and her prices are extremely reasonable. We ended up paying less for our two dogs to stay home in an environment that they were comfortable in rather than having them being anxious and nervous in a brand new environment. You can also tell Kiki loves and cares for the pets she looks after. We received pictures and updates after each visit and saw our nervous and shy dog warm up to Kiki in no time and even give her some kisses! We will definitely be doing business with Kiki in the future!
Kiki took excellent care of my pets while I was away on vacation. She was very thorough in taking notes during the initial meeting and sent photos and/or video updates every day that she cared for them. Her prices are reasonable and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional pet sitter.
Kiki's service has been amazing for our cat. Our cat is a bit shy towards the skittish side but she was perfectly comfortable in Kiki's care. She played with our cat and also put radio for her so that our cat wouldn’t feel lonely. Kiki is very personable and treats your fur baby as her own. She sends texts with pictures after every visit. I’ll highly recommend her to any one looking for a pet sitter.
