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.

Leah & Elias, were an absolute joy as housesitters. They arrived a day early so we could all meet and go over the pets routine. Our cat is relatively new and has a little separation anxiety but they managed his care really well. Our dog needed to be dropped off at a sitters and they took care of that as well. We also came home to a clean and neat house! Overall, they went above and beyond and I highly recommend them.
We’re so grateful for the love and care Vanessa gave our two dogs while we were traveling for a weekend. During our trip, she sent us pictures and our dogs always looked happy and at ease. Even during a thunderstorm she cared for our scared older dog who unfortunately had a little accident, and she cleaned up with no complaint. We didn’t have to worry at all which let us truly enjoy our weekend away knowing our dogs were in the best hands! Vanessa was clean and tidy. We returned home to a neat house and happy pups! She even did the laundry without us asking. We would highly recommend Vanessa as a sitter for anyone. Thank you so much!!
Theresa is a reliable and experienced pet sitter in addition to being great at keeping house! She was very accommodating in meeting me & the dogs in advance of our sit, which proved she is a true pet person: attentive to my dogs and eager to know how they should be cared for. She kept me posted while I was away & I returned to a tidy home & happy dogs! I highly recommend her!!
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!
Jo & David were absolutely amazing sitters for our house and dog Rosie while we were out of town for 2 1/2 weeks. They are the best! Jo was super communicative and responsive at all times. She and David bonded with our dog, who grew very attached to them. They left our house super clean (and there were even chocolate chip cookies for us on our return)! Most of all, they are just super nice people and very easy to work with. Anyone is lucky to have JoAnna & David housesit for them.
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.
They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.
Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!
Dede (Duha) is definitely one of our top house/pet sitters so far! The moment we met I knew she was the perfect fit for us. She is the most loving, caring and responsible sitter one could wish for! She send us regular updates of her daily adventures with Kenzie and Ginger and we could not have felt more at ease. I know for sure that our dog fell deeply in love with her and misses her much. We hope to invite Dede back into our home soon! Five stars all the way!!

Absolutely wonderful experience. Lucky dog pet sitting connected us with one of their in home sitters Jaime, who is THE BEST! He came by 2x a day to walk and feed our 2 boys. He was punctual and actually sligtly early most days, and I could tell the dogs LOVED him. Its by far the best company we’ve ever used (and we’ve used A LOT), and extremely inexpensive given the level of service provided. HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone that needs a pet sitter to look after their loved onee when they are out. Thanks again!
I had great communication with Annette about the services, pricing and instructions during all week. Annette and Bar visited my dog for 5 straight days to feed her and made sure she was doing well. They followed my instructions perfectly and provided so much love to my dog that I was at ease during my trip. I will continue using their services.
Nicole has been taking care of both my pups for over 5 years. My one dog is elderly and her and the kids are so gentle and caring. Nicole even took my pet to the groomer one time for me (though maybe I shouldn’t share that bc others will request the same ;)) but just to show she goes out of her way for her clients. Her back yard is a fun place for my younger dog to sniff and have fun.
My boyfriend and I were visiting from Key West and stumbled upon Lucky Dogs for our pup when we weren’t able to take him with us! Nicole took amazing care of him and he was so happy he didn’t want to leave when it came to picking him up! We were so happy with the experience we asked Nicole to take him the next day as well and even with such short notice she was very accommodating! I will be recommending Lucky Dog to any of my friends in the area looking for a sitter and will be using their services in the future!
I was lucky :) to find Lucky Dogs when I needed a last minute boarding for my pup. I had to travel for work and needed to find a trust worthy place and safe place for my little one. Annette and Nicole made it such a smooth process for me. Annette immediately put me in contact with Nicole and I was able to drop off my pup the same evening. Nicole sent me Pictures and kept me updated on how he was doing. I picked him up a few days later and Titus looked so happy. Thanks again for the great care!!
I 100% recommend Lucky Dogs Pet Sitting! I last minute needed someone to watch my 60lb dog for about a week and a half and Anette was so accommodating! She got my dog set up with Nicole and my dog had the best time. I normally hate leaving her but Nicole was so amazing, that I wasn't worried at all! I got daily pictures or videos and I greatly appreciated the communication. My dog can be a handful but she was well exercised, well fed and entertained the whole time. I will forever use Lucky Dogs Pet Sitting for all my dog sitting/daycare needs! Thanks Nicole and Anette!
We were so lucky that Annette coordinated with Nicole on short notice to take our cavalier for daycare while we visited FL. Nicole was gracious and kind, opening her home without hesitation to our somewhat anxious King Charles spaniel. Henry clearly loved the girls and made himself at home inside the house and outside in the fenced yard with the family dogs. Gave us freedom and peace of mind. Thank you for welcoming our guy! We could tell he was good with the arrangements when we brought him on the second day and he unhesitatingly went into the house and didn’t look back! Thank you again for saving our vacation!
The dog sitter Nichole, took great care of our 2 dogs . I was able to visit with Nichole at her home beforehand and felt completely comfortable leaving my fur babies. She also sent me adorable pics of her family loving on our doggies ❤️. Definitely will use lucky dog pet sitting anytime we can't take our dogs with us.
I was so grateful that Nicole was available to take care of my dog on very short notice. She was delighted to take him into her home and made me feel very comfortable. We had never met before and she greeted me and my dog Willie with open arms and heart. He had a delightful time with her and her family. If I am ever in the area I will definitely call Nicole to take care of my fur baby again Thank you again, Nicole.
Annette is very friendly, professional, reliable and well priced. She loves what she does and treats your dogs like her own. We used Annette to let our dogs out, feed them and give them some attention in the evenings while I was out of town because my husband works long hours. She was flexible when we needed to change a few of the dates and we are using her again next month. We definitely trust Annette with our dogs. She even sent me texts with pictures of them!
My little Coco is so well taken care of at GCPC. If comforts me that I am able to leave to work with a peace of mind, and to know that he is happy and safe there. The updates that are given by Andre are the best, the pictures and videos are one more loving than the other. If just melts my heart every time. Definitely recommend the service!
I have used Grateful Companion numerous times to take care of my three dogs while I’ve been out of town. I always have peace of mind knowing my fur babies are being cared for by trustworthy, loving people. The photos and videos I receive of them on their walks is so sweet and such a nice touch. You can tell that Andres loves his furry clients and loves his job. Highly recommend.
5+ stars! Grateful Companion Pet Care is reliable, responsible - AFFORDABLE - and is who we always recommend. Jan/Grateful Paws Dog & Cat Rescue
I’ve been taking my dog Marley here for about 3 years and every time we arrive she gets very excited. She always gets the best care. Thanks!!!
Andre took excellent care of my sick senior cat Pouncer for us several times while we were on vacation. He came by twice daily and even gave him meds. He always followed all instructions and sent me updates via text for every visit. After Pouncer passed away, we had an emergency and had to leave town right away, and Andre even came to feed my community cats outside! I appreciated that so much. He’s a true animal lover. We recently adopted a dog, and I will definitely contact him again on our next vacation to take care of our Max Doggie Hasslehoff too. :)
Andre and company have been taking care of our dog since 2015. He is an essential part of our dog's well being. He loves and cares for him like it's his own dog. I recommend Grateful Companion Pet Care without a doubt.
Andre has taken care of my dog for years, and is always very reliable. He is also a true animal lover who is involved in pet rescues. My dog loves him, and I can go away and travel with peace of mind knowing that he is in good hands
Grateful Companion Pet Care is just awesome! They have been taking care of my doggies Woody and Margarita since they opened in 2013 and no complains on my part. They really know how to love your pet so by the time you get back to your trip doggies are sssooo happy. I'm so relief when I'm away because I know Woody and Margarita will be taken care of. I recommended them 100% (or even more! :-))
I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!! They took care of our little ones for a week. Amazing service! They immediately made us calm and peaceful with reports, real-time updates, and daily videos! They spent a lot of daily time taking care of them, feeding them, and also cuddling them. Highly recommended!
Andre has been amazing. He is trustworthy, very easy to work with and my dogs love him. What a blessing to our family! Thank you Andre! M
We have tried a handful of different dog sitters for both daycare and overnight boarding, and we cannot recommend the Budaro Dog House enough! They are absolutely amazing. Like any dog owner, we are always hesitant to leave our dog overnight with anyone, but they have exceeded all of our expectations, and we never think twice to leave our dog with them! Highly Recommended!
Budaro really exceeds expectations! Luna LOVES spending time there, all the puppies do, they are all so happy! Mauricio and Cindy are great and treat all the dogs with so much love and care. They helped me beyond taking care of Luna by giving me tips and educating me on her breed and how to work with her at home. I will forever be grateful to them for going above and beyond!
I love taking my dog to Budaro Pet. When I have to travel, this is the best place I can take my dog. Not only are they friendly, but they truly love their jobs and the pets that they care for. My dog goes and does not want to come back 😂. They send you pictures or videos of how your pet is doing which is very nice, as you can see how they are doing. Lolita loves going there. She can’t wait to go back! Budaro is 10/10!
At Budaro Mauro and Cindy Have taken care of my dogs multiple times. Nala and Chanel always have a great time with them. I travel worry free knowing they are in great hands. Budaro goes above and beyond to ensure your dog is well take care of. Mauro and Cindy are very respectful, friendly, professional and very trustworthy. It’s great to have someone like them for my fur babies. Definitely recommend if your love your pet 🐾❤️
We had a great experience with Budaro Pet. It was my first time leaving my dog with anyone different from the family, I was very nervous. They took care of my dog for a week, and I will definitely be coming back there. Highly recommended.
Amazing place!! They truly caring and loving with their pets. My puppy looks forward to going every week. Clean and with a yard for them to play in. Mauricio and Cindy are truly wonderful. I am at peace when I leave my puppy with them. I trust them and know that they take great care of my baby. 100% recommended!
My mom is so happy and feels so safe to leave her dog Toby with this family. They treat the dogs like it’s one of their own. I’d give 10 stars if I could. Thank you for making my mom and Toby happy 😊💙🥂 Friends - these folks are kind, loving, playful with the dogs, and make sure they are fed and watered. 100% trust to you my friends. And - Toby always wants to stay 😂😂
The best place to leave your dog without worry. Mauro and Cindy are so nice and kind with the dogs. Also they know a lot about dogs live professionally. MORA 🐕 loves them so much and always feels that she is at home. Your dog cannot be in better hands 🙌. Highly recommend 👌.
I highly recommend Budaro Pet Services! it’s the only place I trust to care for my dog. And I know she loves it, because when I’m about to drop her off she can’t stop wagging her tail!
Best pet sitter ever
Melissa provides me with peace of mind knowing that she is taking good care of my pets when I’m not able to. She takes my pup on good, long walks giving her the exercise she needs. She always provides updates and even takes cute photos of my fur babies. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re looking for a reliable pet sitter / walker.
Affordable and Reliable. My dogs love Melissa and I love when she sends me a picture every walk and it makes me so happy while I am away missing my fur babies🐶🐾 …
Melissa does an amazing job taking care of my dogs when I travel for work. She always keeps me updated with pictures and gives the babies tons of loving.
Melissa is great! She has been pet sitting my 4 dachshund’s for several years now. She’s very reliable and sends updates and pictures every visit. I never worry when I’m away because I know they are in good hands with Melissa. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a PetSitter.
Melissa is such a great pet sitter. She has been taking care of my dogs for several years now. She always sends me updates on how my dogs are doing with pictures and videos. I always feel at ease leaving the dogs with FureverFriends. Highly recommend.
I like everything about Melissa. I have been using her services for years. She is the best in every way. Most of all the pets LOVE her.
Melissa is just great to deal with. I have been working with her for several years now and she is highly recommended.
Very professional and responsible! Will definitely leave my pets with them again when traveling!thanks Melissa and Ray again for your help!
Melissa loves animals and is a caring person with all animals.
Great experience especially under the circumstances. I was suppose to leave my dog on the day after the historic flood we had Wednesday. With everything going on and all the streets being flooded the owner found a way to get to his place of business to be able to take care of the dogs he had there already and to take my dog in while we were away for a few days. We even scheduled a grooming session for our dog Mercy while we were there. Overall satisfied with services I was provided. Would go back again
I am so glad I took my dog Lucky to Adipetcare today. The owner was very great with Lucky. Lucky was given a bath, nails cut, teeth cleaned, several hours boarding and ears cleaned. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of this property inside as well. I am very satisfied with the services I received for Lucky. I will definitely take lucky back and recommend anybody that is looking for a great place to take your animal This is the place.
Adi is amazing. My fur baby loves going there and always leaves happy. He is gentle and patient with pets. The store is clean and tidy. The location is also very convenient, plenty of parking. I would give 10 stars if I could.
Just moved to Florida and 1st time leaving my fur baby Prince in a boarding house here. It was last minute and didn't have time to review the doggie daycare so I was a little concerned. That all went away the moment I walked in and the dog handler welcomed both Prince and myself. He allowed Prince to get comfortable with his environment and the other dogs. He was kind and patient with both of us. He addressed any concerns I had and answered all questions.When I walked out I was sure Prince was in good hands. I'm definitely grateful and Prince will becoming a regular. Thank you so much from Prince and myself.- Nora G
Needed a wash & blow dry for a paired Westie couple named Ernie & Dutchie whose human Mom passed away recently of stage 4 cancer. Stopped in to see Adrian and the service, quality of care for the dogs, and overall experience was nothing short of flawless.
The best dog boarding in town! Adrian walks dog twice a day plus took my dog to dog park everyday too. My dog had a great time staying at ado pet care. He even got washed before picking him up! Amazing service will definitely come back! Highly recommend!
Amazing guy, he take care of your dog and love your dog like it’s his own also send you pictures to keep you updated and let you know anything
We’ve taken Chuchee to a handful of groomers since he was born. Now we are stuck on Adi’s Pet Care! Wouldn’t trade them for anyone and our little one feels comfortable and safe. Don’t think twice! Adi is the best. Worth the extra drive for his service.
10/10 recommend it was our first time ever boarding our boy and they took such great care of him! Will be boarding him again with them!
Adrian is very professional and loves dogs! He sends me updates about my dog every day I recommend Adi pet care and I will use his service again soon.
I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog receives at A Paw Above! The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely loves animals. My fur baby - Samson (Great Dane) always comes home happy, tired, and well-socialized. I love that they send me multiple pictures through the day so I can see how much fun my pup is having. From the pictures received, I can see that the outdoor play area is spacious and secure. I have complete peace of mind knowing my pet is in such good hands. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving daycare for their dog or any other pet!
Heaven sent! We had to evacuate from our home in Clearwater, FL due to Hurricane Milton and we searched for a doggie daycare during our drive down to Ft. Lauderdale. They were so sincere and accommodating to us as last-minute, first-time guests. Took a ton of stress off us to know our 2 pups would be able to get the exercise and care they were used to back home. I can’t say enough good things about them. The whole staff was so nice and patient and our pups seemed to feel right at home immediately. We were sad to go but we know where to bring them when we visit south Florida now. Thanks a million!!!
As a pet owner I highly recommend A Paw Above ! My two dogs and received the care and attention they needed, while we were out of town and they were boarding. We received daily pictures of the activities with the caregivers and that was very reassuring because it was their first time away from us. Thank you to the owner Gretchen and the staff for taking such good care of our dogs !!!!
A paw above goes above and beyond! There services are out of this world! The owner has such a beautiful soul. The facilities are very well kept, She goes above and beyond to rescue these poor babies. I have adopted 2 beautiful girls from here.
We love Gretchen and all the staff at A Paw Above, new to town, they welcomed us and our pups like family members.
Our family travels internationally a few times each year for several weeks at a time.. I’d never think about sending our sweet boy Teddy to any other boarding provider. They take amazing care of him and treat him like their own while we are away. We get several photos of him everyday and my daughter hugs and kisses each and every one ❤️ Thank you for all you do A paw Above all !!
They are the truth!!! Truly love dogs and even helped rescue mine!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for saving my dogs and keeping her safe!!
After 2 years of good service with them. Spending well over $1k in services, boarding, baths and hair cuts, Grethen the owner, couldn’t have been more rude. I called 2 days before a holiday, no answer, left a message, called during the day in the morning when they open before the holiday and she blew up on me, explosively, nasty and beyond rude because I just wanted to give her business. “It’s a holiday!” “Why do you keep calling!!” She hung up on me. Myself, Knowing someone personally who worked there said “ don’t ever board your dog there”. I would never go back. Gretchen, You need to learn how to talk to people. You’re the rudest person I’ve ever done business with and can’t be trusted. You deserve one star.
This review is long overdue. I’ve been bringing my pup Stitch here for a few years now, and I can’t emphasize how much he LOVES this place 😍. He has severe anxiety; scared of his own shadow, people, noises…everything! When he gets there, he shows a completely different personality. As soon as we turn the corner he’s jumping to get out of the car and rushing to go inside. He’s excited to see the staff and the other pups (he rarely plays with other dogs at the park and is usually scared of people). Unfortunately we moved so I don’t get to bring him here as much. I know how happy it makes him though so we still try to come once in a while so he can play with his friends. I’ve tried to take him to daycares closer to us but he’s never excited when we get there, and getting him to stay is usually a struggle (like lay down on the floor, pout and cry type of struggle). The owner, Gretchen, and the rest of the staff are truly amazing and I can’t thank them enough for taking care of my baby 🥹. I really cannot recommend this place enough if you’re looking for somewhere that’ll take great care of your fur baby/ies 🐶🫶.
Apawabove owner and staff are great , they have gone out of their way to help with my very active malinois/ shep mix. The facility has activities and special events with the dogs. I'm grateful for all they have done.
There is no one I trust more to watch my pets! Alicia and her team are professional, prompt, and always kind. I once hired Alicia to watch my pets while I was out of the country. There was a medical emergency, and Alicia stayed with my baby in the emergency vet, and administered all her medications until I got home. I’m forever grateful!
Swaggy Waggy is the best! Alicia goes above and beyond for her clients, caring for each pet like it were her own. She is trustworthy, dependable, professional, and is totally focused on your pet while in her care. I highly recommend Alicia and Swaggy Waggy. 👍 …
Caring, attentive sitter for your pets! I can tell my Yorkie has FUN when he's there! Highly recommend.
What a fabulous service. Caring,responsible and goes above and beyond. I highly recommend.
Fantastic
We’ve trusted Graham for years with our 4 doggie and we wouldn’t trust anyone else. When we go away we know that our fur children are in very good hands. And they love going to see Graham as it’s like a vacation for them. And they get to play with other doggies. I highly recommend Close 2 Home Dogboarding for your furry loved ones!
Graham is so amazing with all of his guests! He makes sure every dog has the special care and attention they need. They have a spacious yard to run in, a cozy, air conditioned room to sleep in and even another friend to keep them company. I don’t trust anyone but Close 2 Home boarding for my dog to feel at home when I am away
This is the best dog watching service you can ask for.y our dog. My dog loves going to his house and doesn’t want to leave when it is time to go home. Graham is professional and loving at the same time and he also sends pictures and videos during the stay. I highly recommend Graham!
Awesome service! Graham is amazing with the dogs. He takes great care of them, gives lots of love and attention and they love staying with him. I always know they are in good hands!!! Highly recommend! ❤️
Close 2 Home boarding is a really great situation for boarding your doggy. No cages, Graham is super nice and it’s a safe environment, so you feel comfortable having your fur buddy stay there. We’ve boarded there 6-8 times….2thumbs up👍👍 - Cody’s dad
I have 3 dogs, 2 dachshunds and a standard golden doodle. I only board my dogs with Graham because he provides an at home environment that is safe. He communicates well and the dogs are happy and well care for when I pick them up. Highly recommend!
Graham is the best there is. He cares for our dog as if it was his own. We are very particular with who we leave our beloved Ron with, so Graham is always our guy.
Graham is fantastic! He sends regular photos showing how happy Bucky is to be there, and treats him like family. Bucky doesn't even look back to say goodbye when he get to his house!
Close 2 Home is the best!! Our pup is always happy and safe. Graham is such a great host!!
Graham is wonderful, caring and knowledgeable. Charlie loved being there and playing with his friends.
We have brought our energetic lab here for both daycare and boarding since he was only a few months old. He LOVES coming here and playing all day with his friends. They truly care about the animals, have great hours for my job, and are very reasonably priced. We can’t say enough great things about Matt and everyone else at Living the Pet Life!
Our pups love it here! We feel extremely comfortable leaving our babies with Matt, he treats them like part of the family and sends photos of them daily so we’re never concerned and know they are doing well. They get to spend time with other dogs and have fun while we have to travel! They are extremely reliable and great with our pups!
I had to board my nine month old puppy for 4 days because I had to go out of town for work. Matt was very attentive and patient with Tucker. He gave me daily updates and my puppy really enjoyed his stay. Living the pet life does a great job and really cares. Definitely my new go to place for boarding and daycare.
Matthew did a great job watching my dog Arya. He sent picture updates on her letting me know she was alright and has wonderful hours for those of us who need some leniency with our dog sitters. Price is very reasonable too!
When my wife and I were planning to go abroad for a couple of weeks, finding a trustworthy spot to board our dog was a major concern of ours. Luckily, we found Living the Pet Life. Matt took great care of our boy and made sure to send us updates and photos regularly, enabling us to enjoy our vacation without worry. This is definitely our new go-to place for daycare and boarding services!
I had this place recommended by a friend. They are a local Puerto Rican family owned business that’s been around for year’s. And they are absolutely amazing. Mat, kept me posted on my little buddy Blacky while I was away. And even sent me photos of Blacky hanging with his new buddy Gio. I highly recommend these good people, if you need to board your dog in a pet resort. While you are on vacation.
I will definitely being using them again for my Yorkie Bella when I travel. It felt like leaving my baby with family. I felt very comfortable and Bella adjusted without any problems. They took care of her like their own. Sent me pictures daily to assure me that she was doing well. She made a few friends there as well ! She will be returning for doggy daycare and boarding in the future. Thank you so much for treating Bella like family ! <3
I travel a lot for work and wanted to find a dog sitter for my boys where they feel its their second home, as sometimes I am gone for 3-4 weeks. I found Matt's family owned business on Facebook and his reviews were great. Well, they were right! The dogs love the big house with a huge yard and the love and care they get. Matt sends pictures every day and never forgets the dates. So reliable that Ive not met many people as him. Boys always come home happy, healthy and with a big smile! Even dogs cannot speak, we understand their language :) On the top of this.. prices are way below anyone around, and is really really a phenomenal care. Highly recommended!
I recommend Living the Pet Life LLC 100%. They took great care of my Rubi and even sent photos of her throughout the day. I never felt the need to worry. I’m glad I found her a home away from home when I’m away.
I’m sooooooo glad I found Matt. He takes great care of our little dog and she’s been acting much more socialized since we brought her to him to watch during certain workdays.
I couldn’t be happier with the exceptional care my Dobermans received during their stay. As this was our first time ever boarding them, I was particularly impressed by how personal and friendly the staff was—everyone knew my two babies by name when I picked them up and had delightful stories to share about their time there. I really appreciated the regular updates and the ability to check in via the cameras while I was out of the country; it truly gave me peace of mind. The facility was immaculate, and it was clear that my dogs absolutely loved the pool. I highly recommend this place—10/10!
Lauderdale Pet Lodge is a happy place for my fur baby. She enjoys being there. Why did I choose them? They have an attendant in house 24 hours a day when most places leave the animals alone for several hours in the night time hours. The only recommendation I would have for the business is to open at 6 a. m. Not everyone starts work at 7-8 a.m. it would allow this if us who have to be at work ay 630 a m to use the day care services.
My boys and I LOVE Lauderdale Pet Lodge. Every time we pick them up they’re worn out from playing on the clean turf with new friends and usually wet from swimming in the awesome pool. Whether for daycare, boarding, or grooming, I know Nuggs and Tito are being spoiled by the amazing team and having fun with the friendly clients. This is the only place I leave my dogs because I know they take the best care of them here 🥰
We have been so happy with the Ft. Lauderdale Pet lodge. Our dog has a great time, he gets plenty of attention and love from the staff. Highly recommend stopping by to check out the beautiful facility. You pet will love it!
I use Lauderdale Pet Lodge to board my Kitty Cat when I need to be out of town. All the staff that i come in contact with at the Lodge are very personal, professional and leave me with a very high level of comfort. When I return from these trips and pick up my little guy,, he is in good spirits and ready to go back to his normal routine with no signs of any problems after having stayed at the Lodge. I would recommend Lauderdale Pet Lodge for boarding Kitty cats with no reservations.
We took our two pups Cuda and Otis in on Saturday just for daycare while we took our grandson to Zoo Miami. The booking process was easy, the staff followed through and listened to our concerns. They were accommodating for our needs and when we picked them up they were happy and in no distress. That night they both slept well! The staff is great and when we’re back in the area we will definitely use them again.
Pet Lodge is large, very clean and the dogs seem very happy when they are playing in the yard. The employees are friendly and make a fuss over the dogs. Really nice atmosphere. I will definitely go there in the future.
Our favorite doggy day care!! Also where we board our dogs if we go away. Incredible staff that gives endless love and cuddles to our pups. They also have a great groomer Christina and dog trainer Hannah that we’ve used and is incredible. We love this place!
Best darn doggy place I've been to. My beautiful boy loves it and they love him. All the pets get screened for comparability. The pool was amazing to see. Hercules had never been in water until his first visit here. He has a blast in the water. The live web cams were great. They even give a report card on how your pet did. The staff made us both feel very welcomed and comfortable. He even got some ice cream. Pet safe of course. Fantastic for boarding and a day of just play. If 7 Starts was an option, this place would be my lifetime choice.
Our first experience with Lauderdale Pet Lodge was amazing. Blue was well cared for and very happy when we picked him up! We already booked his next petcation!
