Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
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.
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)!
Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!
Katrina and her family were amazing house sitters who took wonderful care of our dog. Our dog is reluctant to go on walks with new people, but the entire family pitched in and found ways to take her to the park. Her daughter developed a particularly close bond with our dog. Katrina communicated us frequently and we always felt reassured by her messages. We returned from our long trip to a spotless home and a beautiful cake in the fridge. What more could you want!
Christina handled Bridie's first-ever time without us perfectly. We returned after 5 days to a happy, well-cared for and well-exercised pup --- and an emaculate house. Christina knows dogs and helped us with a few Bridie issues. We got photos and some updates while away. She was flexible and very sensitive to all of our needs. Chrisrina is the best sitter that we have ever had.
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!

Olive hill did a fantastic job with the introduction to gun training with my Bracco Italiano puppy. All staff was very professional and updated me each week on the progress of my pup. Will definitely be back for more in-depth training with current and future dogs. Highly recommend.
Olive Hill Dog Kennels stands out for their exceptional training and care. Our family, including a German Shepherd/American Bulldog mix, two Vizslas, and a Labradoodle, received personalized attention from Nicole, Dave, and Daryl. They skillfully assessed each dog, providing tailored training that brought out their natural talents. The obedience training for our German Shepherd is impressive, and the specialized game training for the Vizslas and Labradoodle is eagerly anticipated. The facility's cleanliness and the team's evident love for dogs made the experience both enjoyable and reassuring. It's clear that Olive Hill excels not just in training, but in creating a nurturing environment for the dogs. Highly recommend for any dog owner seeking quality, caring training services.
Bought a Brittany puppy here. The experience was great! We got a great dog! Had our first puppy training today that they include with the purchase of a dog. The trainer was great too. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a bird dog.
I purchased a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon from OHK and could not be more pleased. I read these reviews only after I had flown across the country to pick up my pup and have to say this was not the same experience I had... Not even remotely close. The owner and her husband were super friendly, very knowledgeable, and beyond accommodating. I toured the kennel which was VERY clean and all the dogs looked happy to be there and well taken care of. I left with a great puppy who is becoming a phenomenal bird dog, in great health, and just an amazing companion. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Its easy to internet bash a company on Yelp but I would recommend seeing it for yourself.
We boarded our Queensland Healer back in October. Originally, we wanted boarding and training because our dog needed some basic training. Sierra doesn’t respond well to men and the trainer decided that it was in our dogs best interest to board her only. We will definitely use Olive Hill again.
Took my dog for training. Was pleased with Jessie the trainer. I was concerned about leaving my dog, while I wanted him perfected as a bird dog, I didn't want his enthusiasm dampened. Jessie did a good job of training him without curbing his drive. If you're considering training, meet with Jessie he knows what he is doing.
I don't know what the owner of the place thinks is going on, but clearly the trainer at the kennels has not read the marketing spiel on their combined web site (with Quail Point Hunt Club). I left my German Shorthair Pointer with the trainer for three weeks at age 7 months. Each week I got a call from the trainer telling me my dog had no prey drive, and that he would not hunt. I went to see for myself on the third weekend, and saw my dog cowering whenever the trainer came close. I did not see him abuse my dog, but the dog showed indications of fear. The trainer took him out into the field, but could not get him to retrieve, point, or show any interest in live birds. When they came in, I took the dog and a live bird to the same field and he gave me three retrieves to my hand in a row. I took the dog home with me the same day, and two weeks later I took him to the breeder I had purchased him from to see if she could help with training. In two weeks she had him pointing, retrieving, and generally going nuts whenever there was a live bird around. This dog has nothing but prey drive, but will not work when afraid of the trainer. I would not risk a dog, particularly a dog that is also a family pet, with this kennel or trainer.
Had a great experience. Our Darla is completely different dog both at home and I'm the field. Looking forward to training out there this weekend!
Sonnie and Hannah were great. I took my lab to be bred and the kennels were very clean and well maintained with alot of room indoor and outdoor Thanks ladies.
Elizabeth has been our dog walker/pet sitter since 2023. Our dog, Charlie, needs 3 walks a day and Elizabeth takes good care of him. He gets exercise and enjoys time in her company. She is also great when our fire alarms went off in our house during our last trip. She disarmed them and sent pictures. We were happy she was able to take care of the problem. She is a great communicator and I highly recommend her to those who want to leave their animal with a responsible and caring pet sitter!
Elizabeth is a fantastic dog sitter. She is very responsible and reliable. My dogs always seem happy when they are in her care. Much better than leaving them at an impersonal kennel. Zoe and Nacho love spending time with Elizabeth. I would highly recommend her.
Elizabeth has been watching our first rescue dog Nico since we got him in 2021, and now our latest addition, Vinny. As with a lot of rescues, ours had some social/ behavioral issues in the beginning, but Elizabeth is an expert. She knows how to work with and around those issues and also make recommendations. The controlled socialization our dogs get when staying overnight with Elizabeth have been immensely helpful to their training. They come home pooped and happy from all the playing! She also offers reasonable pricing and flexible scheduling. If you’re in the Davis area, highly recommend giving Elizabeth a call.
Elizabeth is awesome, she takes wonderful care of our Jack Russell mix and border collie mix. They always come home happy and smiling and well cared for. She sends lots of pictures to keep us updated and we are really grateful for her skill with the dogs. Our border collie is on medication which Elizabeth skillfully administers and doesn’t always get along with other dogs in our experience, but Elizabeth is so good with her. She always comes home better trained and socialized then we left her :-)
We’ve relied on Elizabeth for years to take care of our pets and house while away. Guinea pigs, fish, dog - she does it all and keeps an eye on the house. We’ve used her for weekends to over a month. Always reliable and responsive. Pets are well cared for and happy. Good value, good and reasonable service. Highly recommended and much preferred to a kennel.
Elizabeth is amazing! She is super reliable, compassionate, and has great attention to detail. She will be able to work with your pets specific needs :) Nova has a great time with her friends! I’m always happy to see pictures, great communication skills!
We heartily recommend Elizabeth’s Pet Sitting. Elizabeth is caring, energetic and dependable. Her program has served us very well living in the URC . When on an outing with Elizabeth our dog Pepper is well-exercised, safe and cared for. And the door to door service Elizabeth offers, picking Pepper up at home and delivering her back- what an easy and convenient arrangement! Both you and your dog will be very happy! She sends great updates and is very flexible with day trips and overnights . Ken and Diane Wagstaff
I've trusted Elizabeth to look after my Labradoodle Molly for nearly six years now, both for dog park visits and extended stays at her home. Molly has always been eager to see her, and I've been so pleased that I've scheduled holidays around her availability rather than consider an alternate dog watcher. I've happily recommended her to friends and family members.
Elizabeth is great. She gets a real feel for what your specific dog needs. We have a high energy breed and he has lots of fun hanging out at the dog park with Elizabeth and her dog pack. I definitely recommend
Elizabeth loves our dogs and cats like they're her own and they are always excited to see her! She sends pictures from the dog park and when she sits the cats she often spends time hanging out with them beyond a standard visit. She was very patient with out dog who is not great with new people and going to dog group with Elizabeth has been great for her self confidence.
I can't recommend Always Available Pet Sitting highly enough as a dog sitting service! Rose is incredibly conscientious, timely, and organized, which makes leaving my dog in her care completely stress-free. Her kindness and professionalism shine through in everything she does, and it's clear she genuinely cares about my dog as if he were her own. Rose is a fantastic communicator—she always keeps me updated, which brings me such peace of mind when I'm away. I can travel confidently knowing my dog is in responsible and loving hands. Thank you, Rose, for being such an exceptional caregiver
My cat, Jewel, is very shy and hides from strangers. However, when Rose gently called out to her, rather than run and hide, she remained inquisitive and let Rose pet her. It was then, I knew Jewel would be fine while I was gone. Rose sent me daily updates with pictures. Jewel was well cared for, and I will be using Rose for all my best sitting needs! Thank you Rose for your invaluable service and professionalism.
Rose’s pet care service was most excellent! On very short notice, she responded to my request, had every detail covered for the care of my kitty and had such a professional demeanor, I felt confident in her service. She sent me texts and pictures each day and I can’t say enough about the trust she instilled ! Thanks Rose🌹 …
Rose has been our go-to pet sitter for three years now. We have two large male house cats. Rose provides peace of mind while we are gone, in part because she posts us by text early each morning with a short report on that morning's visit and how the cats are. She also makes written notes on each visit and leaves them for us. She is careful and conscientious and very easy to work with. We have never had a problem with her service and recommend Always Available whole- heartedly.
Rose watched my two boxers for me. It was somewhat nerve wracking having a non family member watch my girls. But Rose is very professional and thorough. During the meet and greet my dogs seemed to settle fairly well with her presence too. She texts a picture and update every day. Would definitely use her again!
I recently used always available pet sitting for a long weekend away from my pet. Rose was fantastic. She was very thorough on what services I should expect & walked me through everything. I received photos of my kitty every day that I was gone & even came home to a very cute thank you card and notes from each day she visited with kitty. Excellent service. I will absolutely be working with Rose again. Highly recommend if you need to head out of town and can't bring your fur babies along for the trip.
Rose was amazing and easy to work with. We never tried pet sitting before so I would text her frequently but she was always so friendly and reassuring . She would send photos and updates. She was also very thorough during the planning process and we would definitely use her again. We are so excited to have found her. Thank you Rose!
Rose was amazing with our animals! She took care of everything and kept us informed our whole trip. Can't recommend highly enough, we will definitely be using her again!
I recently had Rose watch my eight dogs (two large dogs and six small dogs) and my two cats. I was gone overnight and my pets are not used to this. However I am pleased to say that my pets have taken kindly to Rose and they were well taken care of when I was gone. Rose sent text pictures with each of her visits. Unfortunately she had to clean up after one of my dogs but the place was immaculate when I got home. I highly recommend rose for pet sitting and I plan on using her in the future.
We highly recommend Rose, Always Available Pet Sitting. Right from the beginning Rose was organized and business-like, taking note of the names of each pet, the amount of food, times of day to be fed, locations for food, treats, etc. Rose cared for our 4 dogs and cat for 9 days while we went on vacation. She did not hesitate to come an extra day when our flight was canceled last minute. Rose did a lot more than just feed our fur babies. She spent time playing with them as well as watching their behavior to make sure they got along and played together safely. (We have 3 large dogs and a small beagle.) She even called us to make sure we were comfortable with what she saw. She left notes from each day and also texted us notes and photos. It’s clear Rose loves animals and has experience with animal behavior. We felt so much more at ease on our vacation knowing Rose was watching our pets. We will be using Rose’s services again.
My pups, Alfonso and Oillie love staying at the Best Friends Pet Hotel! They are so quiet on the way home. Exhausted from fun! They love the staff. Constantly running around them even as we are trying to leave! Haha They are so happy. I have them groomed after each stay, they smell wonderful!! Pictures from different pickups!! Another stay! Groomed before pick up! Handsome and happy🐶🐶 Love the bow tie on Ollie 🤭
I am so glad Miranda and Sunflower Grooming have joined forces with Best Friends Pet Hotel! It’s a perfect match and one-stop shopping! Miranda is not only an amazing groomer, but she’s also a dog lover! Her entire staff is sweet, caring and professional! I will never have anyone else care for my animals!
My big boy Bengal, Dezi had a great time here. The facility was very nice and clean too. He got his own two room suite! The staff made him feel safe and loved and he wasn’t stressed when I picked him up. This was his first time away from home and I wasn’t sure how it would go. He will be coming back to visit again.
I have used Best Friends since 2002. All of my dogs have done great and I had a dog with some “issues” and she was handled well. There were never any problems after their visit at the “spa” as we referred to it. My two small dogs just returned from their spa visit and Max was on medication and he did great and our Gracie was happy too. Highly recommend!! 🐾🐾
Kirby's first boarding experience at Best Friends was wonderful! He got along great with the other cats, and it was clear the staff truly care for animals. I highly recommend this Best Friends location for anyone needing extended pet care.
I know Miranda as a professional groomer and a kind and sympathetic girl. I love the new home where she and her staff will continue taking care of our pets. I recommend Sunflower Grooming and Best Friends Pet Hotel to everyone who's looking for quality service, attention and love to animals!
We brought our Golden, Lola, here for the first time for a full grooming experience. She is terrified of loud noises--the girl who met us at check-in was extremely gentle with our dog, calming, and got her to settle down. We knew immediately that Lola was in good hands. They brought Lola out looking better than she ever has at any other grooming appointment--complete with a fresh bandana and bow. We loved our experience here!
First time with Best Friends over the Christmas holiday. She was pretty excited to go with the staff and seemed great when we picked up. We had a long delay on our return train ride and the staff was very understanding. I felt very comfortable with her accommodations and would definitely use them again next time we travel.
Best Friends pet boarding, daycare in Carmichael. The staff here is awesom! My Pebbles and BamBam really enjoy their overnight stays! They get lots of attention, treats and best of all have piece of mind knowing the loving care they are getting! Highly recommend boarding and Doggy day camp!
They took such great care of my big boy Benjamin! I’ve heard so many great things about this place and I’m so glad I finally gave them a try. I will be back for more overnight stays and daycare!
Took our Golden to the splash pad night. They had the nicest facility!! So much room for the dogs to run around in, very clean and no broken toys/furniture. My golden had so much fun and I will definitely be signing her up for a day care session.
Great place to take your dog for day care or swim fun. I've taken my bullmastiff to day care and open swim. She lived both and came home tired and happy. Bit expensive buy you're paying for good care of your dog. I really appreciate that they screen your pet and have separation of different temperaments. Open swim in wknds is great and pretty cheap at $10 per dog. I highly recommend and will be back often. They have boarding service too, but I've never used it.
We rented the pool with some dog park friends and had a blast. The staff are very friendly and the pool was ready to have our pack of dogs rage. Some seating provided, bring a towel for yourself and wear clothes you don't mind getting soaked because the dogs will shake all over you!
Our baby loves her stays here and comes home happy having played with dogs for a week while we go on vacation.. take your baby here and see how great this place is!! 💙🙏🤙 See healthy happy tired.. good girl. …
We love taking our fur baby here! Bailey the front desk gal is so professional and sweet!
The staff here is great! Our pup had an amazing day swimming here, we are planning on coming back for daycare :) (And I must say... It's so refreshing to find a place where pitbulls are treated equally!)
I took my dog, Huffy, to the Animal Den for their open swim. She had a blast! All the doggies loved the pool and I got to enjoy some wine while she played. It was a win all around! My only gripe is the admission fee is $10. The fee is reasonable but it does keep us from going as frequently as we would like!
My dog has been going here for daycare 4 days a week for the last year and is so happy and excited whenever we arrive. Previous places we went for daycare I could see him on camera just sitting by the gate wanting to leave, and he was never eager to walk through the door. I think the staff here have gotten to know him and what makes him happy to be there so he feels much more comfortable. They also do cute holiday activities and dogs of the week which are adorable extra touches. Overall it’s been a great experience!
Such nice and caring individuals! They can accommodate almost anything! Very patient and compassionate for not only the fur babies but the fur parents as well! As for my Meeko he is having the time of his life for his first time. He is literally smiling. Great decision to board him here. I would high recommend this place!
They have been taking care of my loved ones for nearly 40 years. I've never boarded my dogs anywhere else and hope I never have to. They give great care and love and my dogs have fun there. And I have peace of mind.
River dogs resort is absolutely amazing! I am a bit overly protective of my dog and I never hesitate to leave him at River dogs resort. He can tell when we’re pulling into their driveway and is immediately excited. He gets to play with lots of friendly dogs all day and I never have to worry about how he is doing. The owner, Dina, is a true dog lover and treats all the dogs as if they are her own. She is flexible and always looking out for what will be best for your dog. My dog is an 85 pound German shepherd mix who has lots of energy and he always comes home happy and tired. You should look no further if you want a place your doggo will love.
Our dogs love Dina and being at River Dogs. She treats them like family. She has been flexible with us, and we trust her to care for our dogs
River Dogs is a home-away-from-home for our 2-year-old Golden Retriever, Emma. She is always in a good mood after we pick her up. The owner, Dina, is very good at communication and sends photos during Emma’s stays, which are always appreciated. I would recommend highly recommend boarding your dog here.
River Dogs is considered a second home for my dogs. I have been a faithful client for over two years (2-3 days a week) and have only great things to say. The owner Dina, and all of the other staff at River Dogs ensure that my dogs are safe and looked after, that they have fun and come home tired, and that I have complete peace of mind when they are under their care. The Resort is well maintained, and the location is very convenient. My dogs love Dina, they are always so excited to see her, and I love Dina for always working with me and taking great care of my babies. Consistent, reliable, caring, willing, and professional.
River Dogs is the best! our dog loves it there and the owner is so nice and helpful and loves dogs! our flight was canceled at Christmas and rescheduled for days later after we had already dropped our dog off. River Dogs extended our kennel time so we could spend longer with family and took such good care of her. so helpful and understanding!!!!! will always go there!!!
We’ve been bringing our dog here for the past five years and it’s so nice to have a dependable spot when heading out of town. Our dog loves staying at River Dogs and each time I feel confident that he is well cared for and having fun. He always comes back tired and happy!
Yep, a 5 star review for Dina and River Dog Resort! We needed a last minute fun and safe spot for our 12 yo American Foxhound and were so happy Dina had an opening for Chuck. Shortly after arriving, Chuck was adventurous and tried to escape by scaling a fence but Dina did not let that affect her ability to provide safe and loving care for his stay. Upon our return she told us what happened and figured out solutions for his next stay communicating in a professional, caring and understanding way. We are impressed and highly recommend RDR!
Our boxer Abbey LOVES going to see Miss Dina every week! Abbey always has such a fun time playing with her dog buddies. We also board our dog here a few times a year and always know she will be very well taken care of. River Dogs Resort is such a great location and we will never go anywhere else!
Dina and her staff have been taking care of our two large dogs for about 5 years now! They were always responsive and easy to do pick ups and drop offs. The pups were always well cared for, happy to go(could not wait to get taken back to play!!), and exhausted when we picked them up! We were very sad to move away because it was such a wonderful gift to have found such a caring place for our fur-babies! I recommend them without any hesitation!!!
We have always been a let's-find-a-house-sitter type family. We were in a pinch and River Dogs came to the rescue! We have ditched a house sitter completely now, as our rambunctious golden puppy loves to wrestle and play in their large yard while our small dog hangs out, snuggles and shares kisses with Dina. We highly recommend giving River Dogs a whirl!
I am so thankful to Vickie at BOW -WOW PET SITTING!!! I am the kind of dog mom that puts my 2 boys Doug and Rusty (dachshunds) above myself. I set my house up so that THEY are happy and comfortable. I have a low bed,, doggie ramps everywhere and there are dog toys all over. I would say that they are a little spoiled ❤️🐾🐾❤️ I only trust a few people with my dogs. I recently moved to Fair Oaks. I searched online for pet sitting and called Vicky, the owner of Bow-Wow pet sitting and boarding. I asked many questions. I then looked at her reviews on Yelp and decided that I would give her a call back. She was able to take my dogs the next day. She was so great! My dogs were barking and have separation anxiety. I immediately felt comfortable with Vicky. She is very kind and obviously loves animals. Her house is set up perfectly - she can separate dogs if necessary but still see them, they are not locked away in a closed room. She had a big wonderful yard to play in. When I picked up my boys they were happy and not stressed. Now they WANT to go there! Even though I'm done moving I intend to to take them to Vicky's at least once a week because they love her and I don't take them in the car and leave them when running errands. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND VICKIE AND BOW -WOW PET SITTING!!! She is reasonably priced and very accommodating. ******************!!!!💕
I am appalled at the neglect and inhumane treatment of my dog. We left my dog Roxxy there for the weekend over 4th of July. We made sure they were aware she was a rescue dog with anxiety, and we were guaranteed that our dog would not be left alone during the fireworks. After we got our dog home, that night we realized her mouth was severally injured. Apparently, she had been left outside in a metal crate during fireworks while the owners of Bow Pow Pet sitting went to the liquor store, and tried to chew her way out causing the damage to her mouth. Multiple teeth had been broken off, her gums were destroyed and she had literally chewed so long and hard the bone of her jaw was damaged. We were never notified that our dog had been injured under their care, we had to wait to find out when we got her back, and with the extent of the injury being as bad as it was I have a hard time believing there were no signs of blood or injury when it happened. The surgery to fix my dog's mouth was over $3,500, which Bow Wow Pet sitting never even tried to repay. I felt the owners of Bow Wow pet sitting were unprofessional and down right negligent to have let this happen. To top it all off, after multiple complaints from us they still have pictures of my dog on their website, against my approval, to advertise their business. Usually I am not one to write angry online reviews but I feel strongly that they were negligent towards my dog.
My dogs were well taken care of in a family style environment. Both had individual needs and their needs were well taken care of. Was so pleased with the great care both dogs received! Recommend!
Great attentive people who are dedicated to every animal they come across. Reasonable prices for the amount of service you receive. They always go above and beyond for their customers and our pets.
My dog loves this place his friends all go there
Bow Wow pet sitting the dogs can run around and play with other its like pershool
Best place to put your dogs
Very accommodating,.l
Happy pets stay here
Vickie is great
Ashleys is excellent. All three cats receive individual attention and any accidents or medications are professionally and politely dealt with. The on-line appointment and payment system is convenient and easy to use. Out pets are very well cared for while we are away!
I'm a veterinarian who has been using Ashley's pet sitting services consistently for at least five years. She and her team are so reliable! Once when I was traveling in 2018, my house was broken into, and thankfully the dogs were not let out by the burglars. Ashley and her team handled communication beautifully, as well as coordinating with my landlord and the police. I could not have felt more assured from afar that my pets (and my house) were being looked after appropriately. I trust Ashley's Pawsome Pet sitting and am so grateful for their attentive care to my beloved dogs Cali and Bijou. I still travel several times a year and use their services every time.
Amazing service! We were traveling for a week, and Ashleys Pawsome Pet Sitting took great care of our 2 cats. Cassidy was great, we received daily pictures of our kitties, and we could tell they really liked her. I’m definitely using them again!
My husband booked a second honeymoon in Cancun and I was anxious. I didn't know what we were going to do about care for our baby, Scarlett. A coworker recommended Ashley's Pawsome Pets and we are so thankful. They are bonded and they are background checked. We had a meet and greet with our sitter. Which I appreciated so much. Our sitter, Amanda, was absolutely wonderful. She came twice a day and was so attentive to Scarlett. I couldn't have asked for better! She is amazing! My favorite thing is they have a journal with pictures so you know everything that happens with your fur baby. My only con would be the extra fees that aren't 100% transparent. The service is pricey, (but worth it), however, when I went to pay the bill, there was an added fee for administration and then again for credit cards (which I use for security.,) I'm willing to pay whatever is needed for the care of my pet, but it was a tad surprising. Thar said, they are amazing snd we love Amsnda! We will be using them again in the future! The service is outstanding!! The attached pictures are from Amanda's very detailed journals!
We have used Ashley's Pawsome Pet sitting for every single vacation we've taken the past year and greatly appreciate the services of her staff. As someone prone to worrying, the pet journals and photos her sitters take and send daily are wonderful. While I have only had two different sitters, they are always kind, professional, and follow instructions well. I feel like my cat is in good hands when I hire a pet sitter through her.
We have left two different dogs in Ashley's care. Each time, we had so much confidence about how they were faring while we were traveling (in large part because Ashley sends pictures showing how comfortable and happy they are in her home; she sends sweet messages, too). Every aspect of the visit went exactly as planned; her website is easy to use and very informative. All in all, a very professional transaction with a very loving caregiver.
Our 2 black kitties are our pride and joy and we hate to leave them but now, in our retirement years, we are finally able to travel. After asking neighbors to feed our kitties, we tried Ashleys Pawsome and are VERY happy! We can schedule half-hour or longer sessions which include feeding, catbox cleaning and playing with our furry kids. Maybe better are the timely and thorough 'journal reports' we receive after each visit! We're told hew our pets are, and what services were rendered. Let the vacations continue!
Ashley was wonderful with our 3 dogs and cat for the two days we were away. She sent me pics of all of them each time she visited them during the day and I can say, they looked really happy! We've never left them before, so this was a fantastic experience for us, but mainly our dogs enjoyed her so much as well! Will for sure use your services in the future.
Ashley is so friendly and sweet! Her family is so welcoming and loving. She took excellent care of our pups while we got married on the coast. I loved the pictures of cuddles and the daily updates. I highly recommend her, it's a wonderful alternative to boarding.
Ashley's Pawsome Pet Sitting is the best! Ashley and each of her sitters is smart, kind, and really great with our beloved, quirky, doggie family members. We always hate to be away from our fur family but we always know they will be well cared for and safe. One of my favorite memories about leaving our first dog with Ashley: Emma would run up the walk to Ashley's house, so happy and excited to see her, reminding me of my 3 year old going to preschool and NOT caring that I was leaving him. Thanks Ashley! Christine and David
We had a great experience with Bentley’s. Boarded my dog over Christmas holidays. The place seemed super clean, and my dog was in a great mood, and smelled great when I picked her up. I’ve boarded her in other places where she comes home smelling of urine, so it was a nice experience having her come home so happy and clean. The owner was also super accommodating and friendly.
We just had a pretty awful experience at Bentley's Ruff House. Our dog stayed there twice, but I can no longer recommend this place. The second day into our trip I received an upsetting phone call from the owner and video clip that was sent showing our dog in a corner with an employee and our dog acting aggressive toward her which we have never witnessed from him since he was a puppy until now 5 1/2 years later. I was pretty upset the rest of our short trip and wanted to pick up my dog a day early once we arrived back in town, but because it was outside of their pickup window of 7-9 am that day she absolutely refused. I asked her to reconsider and let her know I was willing to come at any convenient time for her that afternoon or evening, but she made me wait until the next day which was extremely difficult and emotional for me. The owner repeated to me several times over the phone during our two conversations that "this is not a home environment this is a boarding facility and is very stressful for dogs". The owner showed zero sympathy on our phone call and continued to use my first name while talking over me, and even had her employee listening in on the other line. I know this because she also started speaking over me during the conversation. I received the worst customer service ever from Bentley's. Thankfully, we were allowed to pick up our dog the next day first thing in the morning and he seems to be back to his old, sweet self. I am not one to write negative reviews, but I think others need to be aware of our experience.
We have been taking our dogs here for years. They are fantastic! My dogs always are happy to go & are clean when we pick them up. Sometimes our lab isn’t (but that’s her issues, not because they do not try). I know they have had some bad word of mouth, but please be open to the fact that there are always 3 sides to everything! Each individual parties experience and what actually happened! Please don’t try to shutdown a small business that provides excellent care for many of our fur babies!
Do not recommend My dog had a bloody eye and had to take him to the vet and costed me 400 dollars if you want your dog to cost you more money go here.
They love our dogs and treat them like their own. Great for a one day or week long drop off with reasonable prices and fun accommodations. Great staff and owners who really care about all of the dogs.
This place advertises boarding for a flat $50 a day and they say it includes free play all day for your dog. They state they aren't like other boarders who charge extra to let the dog out of a crate. But as you read further down you discover they have added a $25 per day for "day care" so essentially its $25 to let your dog out of the crate. For two small dogs it would total $150 per day and I have to bring my own food. Plus, the drop of and pick up times are extremely and ridiculously limited. For the same weekend my room at the Holiday Inn is less! So its costing more for two crates than it is for a hotel room with free maid service! This place is set up for the comfort and convenience of the owners and not for customers. They have the audacity to charge these exorbitant amounts and then severely limit when you can drop off or pick up your dog. Unbelievable.
They are an amazing group of ladies here! Always so friendly and helpful! Ive been taking my boy Kingston here when I need to travel and they have always been the best! Kingston is always super excited when I take him there and when I pick him up! Its a fun doggy vacation for him. They always go above and beyond and give me peace of mind knowing my dog is loved and safe. I will never go anywhere else! 1000% recommend them! 6 stars if i could!
This place is much cheaper than its competitor on the other side of town. They are further from our house but it's worth it. They are a great family and take care of our dogs when we are gone for a few days. They always cater to their usual customers and let them know when they are getting really busy so that they can set dates. Their facility is very clean and they will even give the dogs a bath if they are there for longer than 2 days. Highly recommend.
We have been taking our dog to Bentleys for day care and boarding since she was a puppy. They have a great facility and treat our dog like their own.
Our dogs LOVE it here. We recently moved here and travel regularly so it has been a relief to find a great place to board our pups when we're gone. It is a family-run business and we know and genuinely like them all! They have also gotten us on schedule at a moment's notice not once but a few times. Highly recommend.
Reliable and totally responsible, Five Stars house and Pet Sitting makes my dog and cat happy when we travel. We’ve used this service for years and everything has been absolutely worry free.
We moved to Sacramento recently and I was a little stressed about finding a boarding facility for my two sphynx cats. One of my cats is on a heart medication and they both require a little more attention than some haired cats need. I was so pleasantly surprised with how well Pat's took care of them for the week we were on vacation. There was even a health concern during their stay but it was handled calmly and promptly. I feel very comfortable leaving my cats in their care in the future.
Best place possible to board your cat. loving and knowledgeable staff who really know what they are doing. You can trust them with your baby
I was having a hard time having to leave my kitty for the first time. And the staff here is so great they sent me pictures of my kitty and gave me updates when needed. I felt a sense of relief knowing my cat is getting the best care. I will for sure be bringing my cat here whenever I need to go on vacation. As you can tell my cat also enjoyed it
If you have kitty babies, I highly recommend booking with Pat's Boarding Place for Cats! I previously booked with Wags Hotel in the past but decided to give Pat's a chance. Booking with them was super easy. I called in during their business hours and Elaine answered all the questions I had. Prior to the kitties staying at Pat's, the paperwork either needs to be complete ahead of time electronically or printed and submitted in person day of. Like any other boarding spot, make sure the required vaccinations and flea preventative are done before the stay. When it came time to drop off my two fur babies Sammy and Boris sometime in March 2024, I knew both of them were going to be in good hands! I love the layout of the cat boarding spot and the amount of room both kitties had when I booked them a suite. It's super cool that they both get the opportunity to explore the catio, and it's convenient for those making their way to the Sacramento International Airport. Overall, this place has good vibes and for the price I pay, I know I can get better service and put my two fur babies in a quieter cat only space. I'll definitely be back as a returning client when the time comes again! Thanks for being an awesome team Pat's Boarding Place for Cats and making Sammy and Boris's stay memorable!
Audrey loves Pat’s! The first time she stayed, she didn’t want to come home with me. The ladies there take great care of the kitties and their people. We are scheduled for another stay next month. We highly recommend Pat’s!
Boarded my cats here and they did so well! I like that they check the amount of food in the bowls to make sure the cats are eating. When my cats weren’t eating much at first they even found food my cats liked and sent me home with a can in case I wanted to get more. One of my shy cats even became so comfortable she was giving the lady kisses. And my sometimes aggressive cat even made a cat friend there. I love that they get to walk around and interact with the other cats. Will definitely bring my cats here again next time I have to go on a trip!
I thought this place would be a good fit for my cats, but it wasn’t! From the beginning, we could tell the owner doesn’t care about cats and only care about the money! The owner was very rude and started to argue when we asked for a better room for my cats. ( talked already on the phone) We asked for photos because we were gone for two weeks and she refused! It takes 2 seconds to take and send pictures! When we came back to pick them up, the litter box and their water were so dirty and not acceptable after how much they charged! I’m sorry, but I can't give this place five stars.
They have taken amazing care of my cat many times in the last several years since we moved here. In fact, it got to the point where he would not want to leave and then sulk around the house when we got home. We recently got him a little brother and boarded both boys for the same time. They both had a lot of fun, and came home in a great mood. I really appreciate that they let us call to check on them, and now, even have a texting line. I never worry about leaving my kitties here, I know they are in expert hands.
I have dropped off my cat twice here and I can not recommend Pats enough. The workers there clearly love cats and do a great job of keep the cats happy and healthy. Though my cat must have social anxiety around cars, she loves humans. The workers recognized that and made sure to give her plenty of pets. They will also let you know how your cat is doing if you call and ask. Highly recommend calling ahead when you know you need to board your cat. They get busy during certain times of the year and it also helps to budget the time for your cat.
I've been taking my kitties to Pat's Boarding Place for Cats for about 20 years now and won't consider leaving them anywhere else. The staff is fantastic and the place looks like a Disneyland for kitties. I know my fur babies are going to be well taken care of, and it gives me so much peace of mind. Here's an example of how they go out of their way to make sure all the cats are well taken care of. I got Covid at the end of my trip to Ireland last spring and was left in limbo not knowing when I'd be able to go home. After explaining the situation to the staff they assured me they would take care of my cats until I returned. This involved someone having to go buy more cat food and moving my cats to other kennels because the ones they were in were reserved for other kitties. Their reassurance reduced my stress immeasurably. I ended up coming back two weeks later than I was supposed to and all the kitties were fine. What an awesome place!
