Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend
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!
Joe and Casey were very easy going and reliable. We organised the sit way in advance with a video chat and we had adequate communication leading up to the sit. We handed over the house and animals after a fairly swift explanation of everything. Being experienced sitters Joe and Casey didn't need us to over explain anything (hopefully they felt the same) and we could see very quickly that they were animal lovers. They asked us how much communication we needed whilst away and we said "no news is good news". So we received just the right amount of updates along with the most adorable photos and reassuring words about all the animals. It was clear that they quickly understood the character of each of the animals. We forgot to mention that Tipper likes to dig dirt beds around the garden which creates quite a mess and it was obvious that these were kept under control. The garden and pool were well cared for. We enjoyed a relaxing couple of weeks away knowing that the animals were being loved and the dogs definitely looked for Joe and Casey when we arrived home. Our pets, home and garden were well respected and cared for and we would not hesitate to invite Joe and Casey to sit for us again.
We had the pleasure of having Maggie (for the second time) to take care of our home and beloved dog Frida while we were away for 2 weeks. We couldn’t be happier! Neither could Frida! Our big dog is sometimes a bit stubborn and Maggie managed amazingly. We had daily photos and video, and Frida was clearly very happy, comfortable and very well looked after. We highly recommend Maggie to anyone in need of trustworthy and dedicated house sitter and animal lover
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.
Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
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 🙂
Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!

For Pet's Sake provided exceptional communication and care for our crew. Sunny kept us posted daily and we appreciated seeing our babies well taken care of.
Sunny and her team do a great job of looking after your fur baby. Lots of love and attention is given to each one, and I love that they are so dependable. I never worry about whether she has been fed or walked. Plus, getting pics of my pup while I am away is extra reassuring.
For Pet's Sake has been a life saver for me and my pet tortoise. They're so sweet with him, I know I never have to worry about him being in good hands while I'm out of town. Their rates are very reasonable and they even send you pictures of your pet daily. If you're searching for a pet sitter, I highly recommend them!
I adopted a dog from the shelter and I needed someone to help check on her during the day while I was at work. It was not an easy job as it involved complicated logistics and keeping my other dogs separate while they were all getting used to one another. Sunny had to work with my elderly dog recovering from surgery, my young and very hyper dog and the one I had just adopted. It gave me a lot of peace of mind to receive her text updates and pictures. Sunny was very communicative, reliable and flexible scheduling-wise. There were many times I had to last minute cancel/adjust or add extra visits. It's a comfort to know any time I need a pet sitter she is just a text away. Thank you Sunny!
For Pet’s Sake has always proven their dependability for us. Our cats were well cared for when we traveled, you could tell because they were never stressed when we returned. They manage their communications extremely well. They are very flexible with requests. I would highly recommend Sunny and her crew at For Pet’s Sake.
For Pet's Sake is a company that is Professional, Reliable with Reasonable Rates. For Pet's Sake had provided my cats with excellent customer service over the past 5+ years. Their communication with the owners or the "owned by the animals" is comforting and quite good Texting includes verifying appointments, providing reminders, and sending images of the visit animals. I can always depend on For Pet's Sake to provide care for my cats at a reasonable rate Houston H of Tallahassee, FL
Sunny and her team have been awesome over the last year taking care of my furbabies. I really appreciate the photos I receive after they take care of them too. Oftentimes, my schedule is unpredictable and her team is able to walk my pup with little notice, although I never expect it. For Pet's Sake is reliable, and compassionate, and I highly recommend them.
Since moving to Tallahassee a couple years ago I discovered For Pet's Sake. I have used them multiple times and they always done a fantastic job. My mom passed away and For Pet's Sake was able to accommodate my need on such a short notice. Their service adds an extra layer of comfort when I am traveling. I know my fur baby will be well taken care of.
We have been working with Sunny for years and have never had an issue. Excellent communication, flexibility and service! Receiving pictures of our pets every visit is a great touch.
Sunny is a great pet sitter. She sends updates throughout your trip and is easy to get in touch with. Her rates are very reasonable, especially for 2 dogs. Our dogs always seem very at ease when we return and she watches them. I'd recommend her to anyone!
Ended up deciding on Tally Wags after looking at some local grooming places for our Cavalier and I don't regret it! They cleaned up our sweet baby with the Bow Wow package and made sure her first grooming appointment was the best it could be. Morgan was extremely professional and kind but I recommend Tally Wags overall!
Absolutely the best doggy day care place to take a growing pup (5 months) to rather than leave them home alone (when the adults have no choice but to go to an appointment where they can't bring their beloved pet with them). Exceptional, friendly staff that only has the caring of your pooch at the top of their concerns. Highly recommend!
I cannot share enough good feedback about Tally Wags! I got a puppy recently and have boarded him and take him to day care a couple of days a week. The team genuinely cares about the dogs! They go out of their way to communicate periodically and answer any questions I may have and I truly feel as though they treat my dog as if it was their own. Any time I go in it is very clean and the team is always extremely friendly and helpful. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!
Everyone was extremely nice. Pricing was accurate and reasonable. Most of all they were able to fit me in with a busy schedule.Thank you. We will definitely be back.
We are relatively new at Tally Wags, but so far its been great!! I absolutely love being able to go on the Webcams and watch my big bear playing with all the other pups. Tally Wags is constantly cleaning and maintaining high standards. The staff is professional friendly...... and the app is great!!! Thank You, Tally Wags 💙 …
I could not be any happier w/ Tally Wags. They offer fantastic care for my two Golden Doodles, Dude & Dex! Whether it’s for daycare play, overnight boarding or grooming, they are top notch! Leica, the owner truly loves dogs & her staff is very professional & kind. Their rates are affordable allowing us to go weekly for a play day. We couldn’t make it w/I Tally Wags!!! 🐾🖤🐾🖤
Nothing gives a dog owner greater peace of mind than having a reliable, safe and friendly place to leave their pet when they go out of town. Tally Wags is that place! Everyone who works there is friendly and my dog, Jake, loves going there. He is always happy and relaxed (and worn out from playing with other dogs, lol) when I pick him up. And it's awesome that they have a Web Cam that allows me to put eyes on my puppy while I'm away. Thank you TallyWags!💗
I am new to Tallahassee, so I did a lot of research on doggie daycare. I am glad I chose tally wags. I can’t say enough good things about them. They are all very kind and caring. You can tell it’s not just a job to them they actually enjoy working with animals all day. I put off getting a puppy because I work a lot but they allow me to work and not feel guilty. I don’t have to leave my baby at home. I dropped him off on my way to work and pick him up when I get off. They have super convenient hours. Baby Jake loves going there They spoil him rotten. It’s has allowed him to socialize with other dogs I tell everybody at work if they need doggie daycare please go there. My Husband just got a cane Corso puppy that will be attending a couple of hours a week just to learn socializing skills. Which is important for all dogs. They don’t kennel your dogs like some places they run free and get to play and have fun. Thank you for all you guys do.
Absolutely love Tally Wags. This is my first experience using a daycare and boarding facility as a first-time dog owner and a puppy. I brought my dog in for a 15 minute behavior temperament check as is procedure before using their services, and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was how clean the facility looked and smelled. All the dogs were free to roam but contained in a secure and clean space. While I was talking to the staff about the facility, a dog had an accident, and the staff member politely but immediately excused themself from the conversation to go clean it up, which I thought was very telling of the care each staff member has for the facility and the dogs they are entrusted to care for by owners. My dog had a wonderful stay at daycare, and I got a report card after his visit about how he behaved which was very helpful. There is also a live camera link available to see how the dogs are doing, which is reassuring (and fun to watch!) His first overnight experience at Tally Wags was just as great. My dog has a temporary prescription of meds which the staff were ready to handle and had no problem administering on schedule. The sleeping arrangements are open floor but there are crates available for dogs that need to be separated or just do better in their own space. When I pick up my dog, he is always tired from playing all day but still makes sure to say goodbye to the staff before we leave because he loves them so much! Overall, Tally Wags is the best experience any owner and dog can ask for from a daycare and boarding facility. I highly recommend!
Tally Wags goes above and beyond to ensure the dogs have a safe, fun, and playful environment. We boarded our sweet Ellie there for her first time ever away from home and they took great care of her. Our poor girl’s nerves got the best of her and she ended up having an upset stomach. After a few days, they scheduled an appointment with our personal vet across town from the facility to get her treated and to ensure there wasn’t something else going on. They made sure we were kept up to date and we were so relieved to know that she was in such great hands.
Wag-n-Walk was hired to care for our 10-year old dog, Coco. I was traveling for 2 weeks through the summer and needed some thoughtful care. Crystal was wonderful with Coco, and even did a few video calls with him to keep us in the loop. Also included in was daily pet care journal which were cute additions after each visit. I didn’t really think about it before leaving but they took care of our trash, recycling, mail, & packages in addition to walking, turning on the TV, potty clean up, food, water and meds. The prices for the services are super affordable. I couldn’t be more pleased with how they cared for our puppy. He basically was treated like a king when I was away. I HIGHLY recommend them!
I had THE BEST experience with Crystal and Alex from Wag-n-Walk. They were extremely accommodating to my excessive-dog-mom antics🤣. They kept me up-to-date with lots of photos and reassurance that my babies were happy. My high anxiety and fear aggressive dog LOVED them and it was an instant connection, unlike any I have ever see. So you know they have “good vibes” and clearly understand dogs. My high energy lab and shy kitty were also in great hands. What really put this team into 5+ star rating were their willingness to go the extra mile with my leopard gecko. The morning before my vacation I discovered he had a mysterious injury. Crystal stepped up, learned how to hold him, bathe him in a medicated bath, give TWO oral medications, and apply a topical cream. These ladies 100% saved my Christmas. I will be trusting them with my 4-legged family again soon.
We love having Wag-N-Walk care for our dog Cocoa! Crystal & her team are loving and super communicative — all the things you need when leaving your pet to someone else’s care. They go above and beyond to make sure you know they your pet is cared for like one of their own. I love the pictures & updates I get when Cocoa is in their care and I can tell she’s been spoiled every time I return — It’s like having your favorite aunt come over for a visit. Look no further for petsitting company.
I cannot say enough about how much we appreciate, and are thankful, for how amazing Crystal and Alex are with our pups! We know that whether it’s for a quick visit just for a short walk, or for several days (with overnight stays) our pups are in great hands. Wag-n-Walk will go above and beyond to make sure that they get the best care, attention, and most importantly, all love!
Great service, very professional, will cover all the needs of your pet.the owner is a real gem.
My dog always leaves Camp Mojo’s happy and exhausted! I love the one on one enrichment they do as well as the daily “pup-dates” with lots of pictures and a cute summary of my dog’s day. All the staff are very sweet and friendly. You can tell they all love dogs and make sure to give each one special attention.
The folks at Camp Mojo are wonderful! Everyone on their team is so nice and very accommodating. My dog is a velcro dog and on the skittish side with strangers but the minute we get to Camp Mojo he prances in with excitement. Nothing is a bigger indicator that he is happy and cared for there the way he is at home. Thank you, Camp Mojo!
Love love love love love love love love love love love x a trillion this place! 💖 OK... so does my Minne A. Polis. She's happy and zonked out when she comes home. Often times falls asleep within minutes of her being in the car. I know she plays HARD when she's there. Everyone is super kind, Megan is sweet as candy and I absolutely love the Pupdates they send to me at the end of the day! Than you MOJO for loving my Minneapolis doggie!
Best doggy day care / boarding in Tallahassee! Price is higher than others in town but if you’re a crazy dog parent like me, you’ll see after the first day it is totally worth it! They focus on enrichment and activities for your dog in a well supervised environment. Plus you get a “report card” at the end of their stay with pictures of them and the activities they did!
My puppy (2 year old) Loves Mojo's she's already going crazy a few blocks before we get there! I think they are good with the dogs and they do individual activities with each dog is really great they send a pup date at end of day with pics!
We brought our dog Otis for the first time to Mojos and it was absolutely wonderful! They were able to accommodate us on a busy weekend and he had a great time there. When we went to pick him up, they provided us with an adorable report card and the friends he made as well as photos of him and his new girlfriend. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.
My dog, Fig, was a regular 'camper' at Camp Mojo's. We recently moved to a different state and wanted to make sure to leave a review because this place is incredible. The staff are exceptional -- no other doggie daycare [even other highly rated ones] really even comes close to measuring up. Camp Mojo's is in a league of its own. The camp counselors genuinely seemed to care about my pup and, on multiple occasions, went above and beyond to ensure Fig was taken care of. My dog absolutely *loved* it there -- it was hands down his favorite place in the world. I can't recommend Camp Mojo's enough if you're looking for a doggie daycare for your pup.
Your pups are truly going to love it here! From the moment you take your first step inside, you are always greeted by exceptionally welcoming staff and you leave knowing your pup(s) are: (1) in a safe and loving environment; (2) going to have all the fun; and (3) not only getting great exercise, but they're working their brains too! My pups, both big (>50lbs) and small (<10lbs) and middle of the road (6 years old) and a bit more seasoned (10 years old), love their time at Camp Mojo's! From the super creative enrichment activities to the personalized post-Camp Pup-date reporting on the day's shenanigans (with adorable pictures included), the only regret you'll ever have is not taking your pups back sooner!
5 stars is not enough! Camp Mojo is simply the best! We love to send our boy there whenever we go out of town. Every single person that works there does such a good job and is so caring for our Howdy. Even on vacation a highlight of every day is getting to see the pup-date and look at photos at what our dog has been doing all day! We love the socialization he gets with other dogs, the enrichment activities, and how tired he is when we pick him up. The care Camp Mojo gives to our pup is second to none. I think he has more fun there than we do when we have to go out of town!
My sweet pup, Milo, tried out Camp Mojo's last weekend and came home one happy, tail-waggin' boy. I love that they carefully supervise the groups, play fun enrichment games, give one on one time when able, and offer downtime if needed (my pup gets overwhelmed sometimes, they noticed that and let him sit out and rest until he was comfortable again, which I appreciated). It was also a great peace of mind that there is a direct number you can text to check in on how things are going. I'm very excited for him to keep visiting and learning with his camp pals! Plus, who doesn't love a 'pup-date' report card detailing your dog's day at camp?! Thanks Camp Mojo's!
This is Copper's favorite place in the whole world! We have been going for over 3 years and the staff remain wonderful, conscientious, and patient with my big guy! Copper has made so many friends (human and dog alike) and has so much fun at doggie dayz!!! Bonus points: when your dog plays matchmaker with the manager. Sorry ladies, he's taken!
Doggie Dayz is the BEST daycare ever!! I’ve been to many doggy daycare centers across the country during our travels, and this is the most caring and happy place! Each well-trained staff warmly and enthusiastically greets each dog and owner. These dedicated people interact with the dogs all day, playing with them as well as snuggling. They take the dogs out (double-leashed) for potty breaks, and walks depending how long they’re there. This prevents the pups from spontaneously relieving themselves in the play areas as happens in some places. Tucker has been going here for 3 years and always leaves tired and happy! I unconditionally recommend Doggie Dayz, they will be sure your pup is safe and has a good time. This is a recent photo they took of happy Tucker.
Doggie Dayz is the BEST doggie daycare! Teddy, my chocolate Lab, loves being there and has so much fun playing with his friends - dog and human! In the mornings, he knows he’s going to his favorite place, so he’ll rush through his routine just so he can hop in the car and go to Doggie Dayz. As soon as we pull in, he’s already begging for me to walk him over to Mr. Cliff or Ms. Shannon. He loves them and everyone there! I highly recommend bringing your fur baby here and I know Teddy would agree!
So happy I chose this business for my dog’s daycare. He has been attending Doggie Dayz for daycare for a few months now, and I could not be happier with the care he receives there. The employees are extremely kind, accommodating, & communicative. I never worry about Samson when he’s in the care of Doggie Dayz. I know he’s being closely watched and having a great time. When we pull into the parking lot, Samson freaks out and tries to get out of the car ASAP. He absolutely loves it here. They offer a variety of daycare packages, baths, nail trims, etc. They’ll even feed your dog at daycare if they’re under a year old, which has been super convenient for Samson & I. They also do adorable holiday-themed activities, like taking a pic of your dog in a Halloween costume & doing fall crafts with them. They do everything! We adore Doggie Dayz and highly recommend their services.
If you’re looking for a sign to start sending your dog to daycare, this is it! We started sending our pup Ryder to Doggie Dayz this week and have been extremely impressed with the quality of service! Everyone is so caring and attentive and Ryder has been coming home happy as can be. They have an amazing staff and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a way to keep their pup entertained!
Doggy days is wonderful. I have a 4 pound Chihuahua that goes there reluctantly for the first six or 8×10 times and then finally started getting used to it and used to the people. They’re so kind and gentle and nice cliff and his staff his wife and his crew are just dog people they they are actually good good people that love animals , you know how hard it is to drop 4 pound dog off when there’s 25 dogs in the room well they put them all together then they as a day gets going they separate them to size and put them in another small room as my little Chihuahua gets to play with other little Chihuahuas her size so it’s a very cool place. It’s tiny and small but they get the job done and they’re accommodating And there’s they’re just like you and me there’s they’re just doing their job and this is what they love to do it Sadie is a saint. She takes care of the dogs and she’s fallen in love with Marley and Marley is falling in love with her. It’s a great great situation. I love the place. I would recommend it to Anyone
Before vs after a day at Doggie Dayz. I had taken my puppy a few times before this last visit and we had a decent experience. On his last and final day I received a phone call mid morning that there had been an incident in which the owner said another puppy was playing too rough with him and nicked his ear. He said that my dog had bled a little bit so they put powder on his ear to stop the bleeding but that he had kept playing and didn’t see to be bothered after the incident. He didn’t seem concerned so I thanked him for calling and had my partner pick him up at our normal time. After expecting a small scratch, I was mortified to see that an actual chunk was missing from his ear when he got home. I know puppies will be puppies, but I have never allowed dogs to play rough enough to rip off a piece of another dogs ear. Our dog likes to play but has no behavioral issues whatsoever, I’m not sure I could say the same for the other puppy involved. We were charged for a full day, $32, for our dog to clearly not have been watched. I cannot recommend this business to anyone who would like a safe place to send their dog. The owner has called once to follow up on how he is doing. Owner was unapologetic upon pickup and in the follow up voicemail. Surely if you don’t apologize then people cannot hold you responsible. I have not yet called back.
I cannot express how incredibly thrilled I am with Doggie Dayz! From the moment I walked through their doors, I knew my fur baby was in the best possible hands. I bring my 1-year-old French Bulldog here 1-2 times a week and I love how she gets all of her energy out while I'm at work. My favorite parts of my day are dropping her off and picking her up. The owners and staff are amazing and the price is just right. They always go above and beyond (report card on first day of daycare, dressing her up on Halloween and taking pictures, frequently posting adorable pictures on social media, etc.)
I take my german lab mix, Bear, here. He is so excited when we get in the parking lot and trots right up to the staff ready for his day of play. The staff are always so friendly and I feel good knowing Bear is getting attention while I am away at work. By the time I pick him up its time to relax and my normally hyper dog is lounging quietly instead of barking or following the cat around. Clean location, friendly staff, and great prices. I would definitely recommend!
Nicest people EVER. Cleanest facility EVER. So many happy dogs. What a cool experience. They took care of our Flagler Humane Society mascot, Sperry who thinks she is royalty already, but they were able to meet her high expectations. She made so many friends while we were at the capital working for stronger animal protection laws. We will all be back next year. Thank you guys!!!!!!
We have been using Diane for many years now to take care of our cat, Charlotte and fish. She always does a great job but this time she went way above and beyond what we would expect. We were in Ireland for two weeks and inaccessible by phone but Diane kept us posted daily on concerns she had about Charlotte’s not eating as well as throwing up. She continued to monitor her and even had her parents ( who live next door) come and check up on her. Diane offered to take her to the vet if needed. After several days, Charlotte corrected and was ok. Diane gave us peace of mind and we knew Charlotte was in good hands with her. We would highly recommend using her as she truly cares about the pets she is sitting.
Diane did a wonderful job taking care of our sweet Lola. She kept us updated with photos and texts while we were away. Highly recommend!
This was our first time using Lead the Way pet sitting services. Diane was great.. reliable, understanding and connected well with our fur baby. I was hesitant about leaving our dog and home for a 2 week vacation but Diane helped to reassure all would be fine. She sent texts and pictures to ease my mind. I’ll definitely use her services again in the future!
Diane took care of my old babies for around a week.Took excellent care of my dogs and every day send me photo and message. Highly recomended.
Diane went above and beyond while we were away. It was obvious from their happy attitudes that our dogs were very well cared for! Lead the Way offers great pricing and excellent service—we will definitely be using them again!
Diane did great with our 2 bigger dogs. they were in a setting that was just as like being at home. She loved on them as if they were her own, gave them home made treats, sent pictures and updates so we knew they were doing well. She was flexible when our flight plans changed. We'll be using her again when there is a need.
We recently hired Lead the Way to watch our two dogs over the holiday break and the service was excellent! Dianne was very detail oriented and prompt with communication. We will definitely be using this service again.
I'm very pleased with Diane's service. My dogs are happy when I come home so that makes me happy. She makes homemade treats for them that work with their sensitive stomachs. My Merry especially loves her! I can tell she loves my dogs back. Very warm and caring. Good communicator, good problem solver. I had a keychain made with my pets names to make it easier for her to find my key among her other keys. I plan to travel more and ask Diane to help me out again!
Just used Lead the Way for the first time for a 4 day weekend. She was excellent with our very shy dog. Lots of extra attention, walks, and even homemade dog treats! We couldn't be more pleased and we definitely recommend.
All my pets love Lead the Way!
My dog Emma is pretty shy about boarding at new places but she always has a good time at Boarding Buddy and makes lots of new friends. Isaiah does a great job keeping the dogs happy and active; Emma comes back nice and tired, not to mention well loved and happy. Boarding Buddy is the best!
I love Isaiah and Boarding Buddy Tallahassee. He always takes such good care of my 4 dogs and he loves them like they’re his own. I feel so safe and secure leaving them with him. My dogs love Boarding Buddy Tallahassee just as much as I do. You can tell that Isaiah truly loves his job and loves animals. He sends pictures and updates occasionally on the pups when they’re in his care. Boarding Buddy Tallahassee is run out of a home and not kennels. The dogs are welcome to go where they please and made to feel “at home”. I am beyond thankful that we found this place. Between picture updates, report cards, and even crafts - he goes above and beyond! So thankful for Boarding Buddy Tallahassee.
i can't recommend isaiah enough! he is the only person, other than a couple of close friends or family, that we truly trust with our pup onyx. he is super caring, sweet, and gentle towards our dog - we can always tell because he gets so excited when he sees him! we had such hesitation boarding him places because they just stick them in cold cages with zero interactions. with boarding buddy, it's like he's home! they can go into any room they feel comfortable in and have their afternoon snooze on the couch (just like if they were home). he is heaven sent!
Isaiah truly cares about the animals he takes care of. His prices are very reasonable for the service he provides and he is very accommodating. Our dog Dabo seems very happy spending time there. I would highly recommend Boarding Buddy.
I was referred to this company. The communication didn't meet my expectations. I understand patience, but we texted back and forth, and I asked if it was okay to bring Bella. Your reply was yes. I texted that we were on the way and then that we were here. You only stated that you were bathing another pet after left I the second time. Your reply should have been, "I'm giving a pet a bath. Can you come at this time, " I would not have had a problem with that. So, I understood the agreement, I also understood it when you told me that I could bring her back. But that's neither here nor there. You did not communicate with me while I was at your door twice.
I have used Isaiah and Boarding Buddy for the last two and a half years. I have ended up travelling far more than I planned and they have been exceptional to my dog Marco (several week+ long stays). Of course the first time I was curious as it is not a standard kennel, however I have come to learn it is far better than other boarding services. I love my dog to the ends of the earth and Isaiah has truly made their service a second home to him. Not only have they accommodated Marco, but they have worked around my hectic schedule. Boarding Buddy is truly a hidden Tallahassee gem for pet owners. Thank you Isaiah!
We have used Boarding Buddy Tallahassee 3 times this year, our first experience with them. Two were relatively short stays of 5 days each, but the last stay in September was for 2 weeks. Our experience has been excellent. Isaiah is wonderful. keeps us updated and texts pix of our girls. I can't imagine trusting our dogs to anyone else. Congratulations on a well run operation!
I am so happy I found Isaiah and Boarding Buddy! I have a young puppy who is full of energy and she loves Isaiah and all of her friends she gets to hang out with at daycare. I love getting pictures of her and getting to see what a good time she is having. She comes home so tired too! I’ll keep bringing her to Boarding Buddy as long as they’ll have us.
I’ve been using Boarding Buddy Tallahassee for over six months for anything between daycare visits, and week+ long trips. My Giant Schnauzer puppy, Valentina, is always ecstatic to go in and super happy coming back home. Those in charge of caring for the dogs are incredibly friendly and accommodating. They understand each dog’s unique needs and accommodate them accordingly. They offer great prices, especially when considering that the dogs are not caged or locked into a room and instead become part of the family (you can get evidence of this with the photos they send over their stay)! I highly recommend and will continue to use their services!!
I never write google reviews, but I had to for Boarding Buddy! I was nervous about boarding my dachshund puppy, but my experience with BB has been AMAZING! I have taken him back multiple times for daycare. They are so attentive, caring, and nurturing to the dogs. Plus, their setup is enriching and truly fun for the dogs! Cannot recommend them anymore!!!!
We moved to Tallahassee a few months ago, and were worried we wouldn't find a pet sitting service with the capacity and patience to care for our very large crew of cats. We have older cats who need medicines and eat special diets, we have partially-feral cats who take "stranger danger" to a whole new level, and we have neighborhood cats who eat an entirely different diet out in our barn. A cat whisperer is what we needed, and a cat whisperer is what we found with Tallahassee Lassie!! Jen is the most amazing pet sitter we've ever had - she is super detail oriented and makes sure our kitties get all their medications and special diets. She knows how to speak cat, for sure - our more skittish kitties were out in the open, letting Jen feed and pet them almost from the very start of her visits. How she also finds time for play is beyond me! And, Jen also takes wonderful photos of our kitties (samples attached!) and sends us reassuring updates while we're out of town. Scheduling with Tallahassee Lassie is a breeze, and communication is thorough. Everyone at Tallahassee Lassie has been super friendly and wonderful to deal with. We couldn't be happier we found them, and our cats are super happy, too!
Tallahassee Lassie took care of our guinea pigs. I’ve never felt so comfortable having a company in my house. The meet and greet was wonderful, and it was clear our sitter cared as much about our piggies as we did. She took excellent care of them. The best part was the app. After each visit it was updated to show they had been fed, gotten water, had the cages spot cleaned and it included daily pictures of them. Highly recommend!
I would absolutely recommend them! I adopted my sweet Lambert from the animal shelter and he can be sensitive. I didn't want to board him but was concerned about strangers entering my home. When I met Carla, the owner, who came to my home, I was immediately put at ease. It's obvious how much she genuinely cares about animals and what she does. I had the pleasure of having Jen and Kimberly watch Lam for the week. It was like a vacation for him too! They were both so kind to him and followed the directions I left for them. They even fixed my dog cam that went down twice, so I could continue to talk to Lam. Jen, as a jogger, even gave Lam the jogging experience he loves! the best part is that I received picture updates and notes about Lam every time they checked in with him. If he's eating, happy, was scared of anything on his walk. I am definitely using them again in the future, even on long work days. Thank you guys for taking great care of my baby!
Tallahassee Lassie Pet Care is an amazing group of caring pet professionals. We utilize them to come visit with our pups when we can't make it home at lunch time, and the dogs LOVE them! They provide a thorough report (with pictures!) after their visit, and scheduling, payment and conversations are easy through their app. We couldn't be more pleased with the services they provide, and it makes me so happy our dogs have amazing folks looking after them when we cannot. Thank you, TLPC team!
My pups have been getting visits from Tallahassee Lassie for a year or more. They are dependable and my pups love their visits. I thoroughly enjoy all of the photos of my pups at play during the visits. They are also very accomodating to my schedule.
Tallahassee Lassie took care of my two kitties while I was on a week vacation. The prices are very reasonable, the sitter I worked with (Jen) was accepted by my kitties at the meet and greet, and she left my little place and my babies in great condition for me to come home too! As a bonus, she took a lot of lovely photos of my kitties and sent them to me while I was away. I will definitely be using Tallahassee Lassie in the future!
I greatly appreciate the attentive, specialized and flexible care our pets get from Tallahassee Lassie! We have two dogs, backyard chickens, and a senior cat - and they are always happy and healthy when we return from a trip. Tallahassee Lassie is also fantastic at communication and coordination. It makes traveling so much easier to know our sweet pets are in such good hands.
Great experience with Jen! She took care of our babies so well. She went above and beyond giving them extra love and time outside. She provided photos for each visit which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely use them in the future!
I’m not sure there’s anyone in this town who could care just as much - honestly maybe even a bit more(?) - about your pet as you do than Carla and her team at Tallahassee Lassie PetCare. She’s an exceptional human and beyond wonderful with creatures. We are such proud and happy clients. 🐶 They book up crazy fast, but if you get on their schedule and manage to book a slot - cherish it like the gold it is. ✨
Very reliable pet care. Your pet can stay in familiar surroundings while TLPC visits for as long and as often you need.
I trust that my fur baby is being well taken care of. The closest location is about 40 minutes away, I pass 3 other pet boarding places but wont take my puppy (8 months old) anywhere else. He gets ecstatic when I say we are going to Puppy day care.
The previous boarding business that I used in Tallahassee was nowhere near as professional and reliable as Pet Paradise. Paradise’s fees are just about average, maybe slightly above, but my dog was actually comfortable and happy here. They have a large facility with private air conditioned rooms for your dog. I paid 344 for 6 nights. After your stay they send a doggy report card to your email! Excellent facility and friendly staff.
I couldn’t ask for a better spot for my baby! The staff is always so attentive and the areas are always clean. My puppy has been going here since he was 4 months old and he absolutely loves it! They give him so much love, and he’s always so happy to be there with his friends. The play area is also very spacious so there’s no need to worry about if your pet is cramped up.
The welcome I received. The hands on info from employees is great. I found a great place for my Cane Corso to be with other dogs. A big space. If needed kennel are tall open spaces6 ft long 4ft wide, pool for dogs if needed. TY pet paradise
JJ the groomer is the absolute best! We trust her with all three of our doodles. The staff was professional and friendly.
The Tallahassee pet paradise staff are just the absolute best. I have been meaning to leave a positive review from my most recent boarding experience but haven’t had the time it deserved to really sit down and write out all the things they did for my dog Sadie and me. Sadie bug is 10 years old and I rescued her at just 5 weeks, needless to say she is my baby and I hate being away from her. She had only been boarded a few times in her whole life when we went on our most recent vacation which was 8 days and boarding her for that long made me so nervous. The staff really did a wonderful job taking care of her and I really felt that they cared for her and loved her as much as they would their own pet. Every concern I had was addressed by the staff, whether it was the fact that she is an extremely anxious dog or how I truly had no idea how she would do in play grounds because she’s never really around other dogs or goes to dog parks, they went out of their way to make sure Sadie was prioritized and I cannot thank them enough.
Our doggo loves this place and can’t wait to go see some doggy friends while she’s there. The Pet Paradise team is always so friendly and takes great care of our girl. We highly recommend this place for all your kenneling, grooming needs, etc.
These photos are all that you need to know. I wish we paid more attention to the negative reviews than we did to the positives. Please beware, we did not pick up the same dog that we dropped off. We are heartbroken by the pain that our dog is in after staying at Pet Paradise - please pray for a speedy recovery. We have not heard back from management yet but will let you know when we do. Was he left outside against his will? How are his paws so raw? Are they burnt? We were told by Pet Paradise that they “call about any minor change in your dogs behavior, even if it’s a little cut or if they’re not eating normally, rest assured we call about everything.” 0 phone calls later and this is how we picked up our sweet boy: UPDATE: Got a call from the Tallahassee location manager and she told me all about how my dog didn’t eat for two days and that basically these injuries are normal because they evidently don’t keep the place clean. IF YOU LOVE YOUR DOG AVOID THIS PLACE! They seriously told me they “call about everything” yet my dog didn’t eat for two days and has burnt paws & a mouth rash and we don’t find out until after we’ve paid and picked him up. I seriously can’t believe this place. Read all of the reviews they actually forgot to give one dog his medication so he had to go to the hospital due to blood clots. Avoid pet paradise at all cost
Not a very good experience with Pet Paradise. on August 12, I dropped off my dog to have a full groom. When I picked her up, I noticed that her nails were visibly un trimmed after putting her in my car. I returned to the lobby to confirm that her nails had actually been trimmed, and the tech on site stated that they had. After returning home, my significant other also questioned whether her nails had been trimmed because they were still very long. I returned to Paradise on August 26 to investigate whether or not my dogs nails actually had been trimmed on August 12. The managing tech reassured me that her nails had been trimmed that day, and the service was rendered and ultimately charged. I said OK and then asked if they could go ahead and trim them again, although it had only been two weeks. She agreed and I left my dog there to get her nails trimmed. About ten minutes later, I get a text from the manager at Paradise, stating that she was unable to trim my dogs nails because she is too nervous. This lead me to believe that her nails were not actually trimmed on August 12 because if the managing tech could not trim my dogs nails due to her behaviour, it is very unlikely that the previous tech actually trimmed her nails. I feel as though I was misled and wrongfully charged a service that was not rendered. I requested a partial refund for the nail trimming and it was approved. They Suggested that I go to the vet next time. Although I do have a Banfield pet membership, I’m baffled that a grooming and kennel establishment was unable to perform the service on a nervous dog. Additionally, I would be sceptical of getting any services done there because clearly if they’re unable to perform a service that you requested, they will lie and tell you that it was done and charge you anyway.
A majority of the good reviews are old. Look at how bad the recent reviews have been. Something has gone WRONG at this location. TERRIBLE ESTABLISHMENT. If you love you family members, DO NOT USE PET PARADISE!!! Terrible experience all the way around. We used them in May and we’re extremely happy. I gave a 5 star review. We used them again the week of September 12th. When we picked up our three dogs, 2 had dried feces on them and our other dog had dried blood on her jowl. The dog bed we brought was covered in feces. I think they locked them in the room and forgot to unlock it. They fed our dogs so much more than the instructions, two of our three dogs vomited within an hour of getting home. We have an appointment with our vet on Monday. Run far and run fast away from this establishment. They do not care about your animals or you. My wife picked them up and NOBODY would explain anything. That was Friday at 1 pm. I called at 2 and spoke with Pip. She supposedly was the supervisor/manager. I shared our experience and she was aghast. She said she would research and call me today. It is 5 o’clock. She has not called
Our dog Bentley loves coming here!! He always comes home tired from playing at Wagland. Best kennel in town, wouldn't send him anywhere else!! You can tell the owners and workers really care about the dogs and are all are very friendly!!
My dog Tank spent the weekend at Wagland for the first time this weekend. He came home happy, exhausted, clean and smelling good! The employees and owners were all so kind, asked all the right questions, and were extremely accommodating. We will definitely be making the drive from Cairo to bring him here from now on! Thank you Wagland!
We absolutely love the new owners at Waglands! They really helped me when I was in a pinch and made an error with my booking dates. Our husky came home so tired (which was great and told us she was played with!). We will always chose them for both of our dogs when they need boarding!
Left Harley Quinn there for a week, and they took awesome care of her ! They are amazing and I'll definitely use them again !
I will never take my 2 golden doodles to Wagland Kennel-Where Pets Love to Stay & Play (Mahan Dr., Tallahassee) again after leaving them for 2 weeks this summer. I do not know how they were taken care of but when we picked them up they were both pitiful. One of our dogs was not excited to see us at all and could barely walk to the car. After getting him home, we discovered his body was covered with dead fleas. He had received his monthly flee and heartworm pill the day before his stay. He was also covered with multiple, infected hot spots. We spent over $200 on treatment which included 3 weeks of antibiotics to get him back to normal. Our other dog was acting abnormal also, when we picked him up. After getting him home we noticed he had loose stools, was vomiting and not eating. A couple of days later, his diarrhea turned bloody. When we took him to the vet, he had lost 10 pounds and was severely dehydrated and had an intestinal infection. He had to stay at the vet and was on intravenous fluids and antibiotics for 2 days, then home on antibiotics and special food for 10 days. His bill was $1500! I did inform Wagland of what we experienced and had no response from them. We have NEVER experienced anything like this before and I will never let Wagland Kennel watch our dogs again. --
You can't interview your dog after a one week visit, but you can tell if they were taken care of. I'd definitely return. The kennel can be rule oriented during their staffing issue, but I didnt mind that, in fact I appreciated it. Facility had a "strict mom vibe" where you knew everything would get done and done right...Another thing I appreciated. Experienced folks here. Good people, good work, and a decent value. Thank you!
I left my toy poodle with this establishment for a few days this spring and it was a pleasant experience. I hope to patronize them again.
We chose Wagland Kennels as our "regular" vet was fully booked. I was a little timid at first as this place was new- in the country and our little dog loves to escape. We picked up our dog a week later and she looked like she had a fun time and seemed to be very well cared for. I will look to use them again. We were very happy with the care they showed our Yorkie. Wagland Kennels has my personal stamp of approval. 5 stars.
I called these guys and asked to come for a tour of the facilities. I was told that clients were not allowed in the kennel part of the facility because of their insurance. I thought that was weird because I know many kennels that allow you to go back and look at the kennel. And I think many dog owners would like to see where their furbabies are staying. I thought they must be hiding something. It was weird. I got a very weird vibe from them. I just read the owner's response and I would have to say that I would not be interested in visiting unless I could see where my dogs are kept. I want to see if it's clean. I want to see if it's safe. I want to see if they are getting the best care possible. Since many other kennels allow prospective clients to view the boarding area, perhaps the owner should consider looking into changing their insurance carrier. Otherwise, I have no interest in coming over to see their boarding facilities. But thank you for the invitation. Have a nice day!
Came highly recommended after one of our kennels had to pause taking our pups for a month due to finances. We couldn't be happier with how they treated our dogs and they came back smelling fresher than before we dropped them off.
Jane is wonderful and truly loves animals 👍💯💯 …
The love of pets is truly the first priority here!
