Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!
Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!
Such a great family! George, Larissa and their crew were a fantastic bunch. Our large senior dog got an eye infection right before we left for our trip and so we had to ask them to do some extra eye care. When it was clear that it wasn’t getting better they were willing to load up Lorax and take him to a vet appointment and then apply the prescribed ointment for the next week and a half. Definitely above and beyond care that we really appreciated! Our house was left in great shape, our pets were super well cared for, and George and Larissa were great communicators. We have had many many sitters over the past 3 years but this was the first family. Nothing to worry about, they were terrific and we would happily have them back again. Thanks for taking such good care of our fury family and our home!
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!
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
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!!
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.

My dog loved his first free half day of play and assessment! He's never been around other dogs and we were scared we waited too long. He's 9 months old, he had a blast with the other dogs. I have his stay scheduled in about a month. He's going to have a great time while we're away, we won't have to worry about him being alone for the majority of the day. This place is great! They also gave him a report card and he excelled!
10/10 would recommend! This place is honestly wonderful. They offer a variety of services I haven’t had the chance to try yet, but definitely plan to in the future. I’ve struggled with keeping my little guy groomed between visits, especially when he gets upset with me and has accidents—plus, I have a busy workload 🤦🏾♂️. This often leads to him having lots of knots, but the team here has never judged me for it. They’re always kind, helpful, and willing to educate me with every visit. My dog is always so happy when I pick him up, and it’s clear he enjoys his time there. I’ve had other groomers in the past who disappointed me—some didn’t even shave his paws despite advertising it. Plus, my dog was never as enthusiastic leaving those places as he is here. The staff is pleasant, and I would recommend this place to anyone, especially those who worry about leaving their little ones with the wrong professional. They truly care.
We took our dog Corn there while we lived in Jax. They took THE BEST care of him each and every time he stayed!! My favorite part was seeing the Facebook posts of our guy playing with the other dogs. I HIGHLY recommend using Ooh La La Pet Spaw for your boarding and day care needs!!
I can’t say enough good things about Ooh La La and their staff! My dog absolutely loves coming here! When I moved here, I toured multiple facilities and I can honestly say this one is by far the best. From their personal approach, beautiful and clean facility, and the care given to my dog. Whether it be daycare, boarding, or grooming -they are by far superior! Thank you guys so much!
So our baby girl Star Bright goes to this groomer and we love them. Every time she has gone to them she looks like a little diva every time. This time her Christmas look is everything. She looks so pretty. Thank you Ooh La La for always making our baby girl look like the super star she is ❤️🐶 …
I left for vacation confident that my fur babies were in good hands. Ooh La La Pet Spaw is the only place that I will leave my fur-babies.
I was so nervous to take my newly adopted boy anywhere for grooming because he had such a bad cut when we got him HOWEVER The team at Ooh La La helped me to calm those fears. Angie was so professional and did such a great job. I just know my baby is in good hands whether it’s for doggy daycare or grooming. Curry gets excited when he pulls into the parking lot. Let’s not forget to mention the great snack options to purchase when it’s time to go home. Thanks for the personalized updates and loving our babies as if they are your own. 10/10 recommend 🧡 🐾
I have been using the mobile grooming for several years. I absolutely love Miss Jeannie! She does amazing work with all 4 of our pups. She is always on time and always communicates with me. I would recommend Ooh La La’s mobile pet grooming service time and time again!
I’ve taken my dog there 3 times. The first time was good but the last two times they have cut her very incorrectly. I asked for a classic shih tzu cut. Just a round face and to keep her body short. They cut her face into a weird triangle. Almost taking her hair to the skin on her entire head. The third time I asked to speak to the groomer to explain I want a fluffy round face and they made her face look like an inverted bowl. Like if she was wearing a visor. On top of that they cut her tongue?! Drew blood and all, and then told me she was licking too much. In result they barely touched her chin area. I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have NEVER heard of someone cutting their tongue. Very upset and will not be returning.
My dogs are always beautiful and smell good. They always take great care and attention with my babies. thanks team Klhoe Kardashian and Teddy said thank you!!!! I drive 40 minutes to get to Westside so my dogs can be looked after. It's been 2 years
We just dropped our pet off for a week with Crystal. Prices were very reasonable considering other companies in town. She made us feel at home and comfortable watching our pet for so long. She has a large property and is very professional. She has the experience and loving attitude to take care of all your furry family members. I won't hesitate to come back next time we go back out of town. Thank you for the wonderful experience!
My dog loves to come here and see Auntie Crystal! The dogs are well taken care of and get to enjoy a home environment unlike typical daycare and boarding establishments with concrete kennels. Great opportunity to interact with other dogs in a stress free environment. The prices are phenomenal as well. KEEN highly recommends!
I wish I could give 10 stars. Crystal has been a lifesaver for us throughout the years, managing our dogs “particular” personalities and keeping them happy and safe while we travel. She’s literally a dog whisperer and if your dog has struggled in boarding elsewhere I encourage you to reach out to her. Shes flexible and accommodating while treating your pets like one of her own. Meeka and Rufus thank you!!
Crystal watched our older kittens for a little over two months while we stayed with family waiting for our house to finish. She did such an amazing job! She kept us informed with pictures and videos, she made our kittens feel right at home! I will definitely reach out to her again when needed and highly recommend her :)
Me and my husband stopped in to see the sites of St. Augustine and needed somewhere for our dog to go. We called Crystal and she was more than willing to take our dog in for the night.. She was amazing and very friendly. Our dog was able to run free in her home and not be caged up. We picked him up and we knew he had been taken very good care of. If you ever visit St. Augustine and need a dog sitter for the day or night give her a call.... We highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks Crystal for loving our dog like your own. You r amazing!!
No surprise that Crystal was the exceptional person and the quality pet sitter that I loved to give my happy crew to! She really cares for each family and pet so well, and I felt that the best time that my pets had were when they visited her home for two weeks while I was out traveling the country! Loved her service and love for pets! Thank you Crystal! I am referring everyone to you! And Sugar and Twilight say hi too!
My family went on vacation and we left our family dog with Crystal at Preferred Pet Care in FL. Our dog was in her care until she cancelled on us, less than half way through our vacation. Let's back up - A few days after dropping the dog off at Preferred Pet Care, my daughter tried to connect with Crystal. After a few days went by and my daughter still hadn't heard back from her, she decided to send an email and Facebook message as well. About an hour after sending those notes, my husband and I suggested she call Crystal using a different phone number, one Crystal wasn't familiar with... This resulted in Crystal picking up and subsequently, yelling at my daughter, telling her she wouldn't watch our family dog any more. Why did she decide to stop watching the dog? When my daughter dropped the dog off at their house, Crystal told my daughter that she could text her (Crystal) to ask for dog photos. Our daughter was grateful for this and texted Crystal for pictures of our dog, no more than once a day, if that. Crystal then stopped answering my daughter's texts and wouldn't pick up the phone. However, once my daughter was able to connect with her, Crystal yelled at my daughter, saying she was the most demanding customer she's had, because she asked for photos once a day (if that). Again, Crystal said she could ask for photos... Crystal was: - Not responsive. - She was rude. - She didn't care about the wellbeing of the dogs in her care (no dog toys were ever present. - We spent a day of our vacation searching for someone to pick-up & care-for our dog. - We were concerned for the safety of our dog.
Crystal is a very knowledgeable and patient person with the animals. I needed someone that could care for a young energetic pup that has not yet been been socialized. She was understanding and amazing. She got him right out there in the mix. I look forward to having her watch my little guy in the future. Im so happy to find her!
We were in St Augustine for a beach vacation and we brought our maltipoo Prince. We wanted to be able to have some free time to do things dogs are not allowed to do while we were here and Crystal offered us a great way to do that she gave us a safe and fun place to bring our puppy and let me tell you he loved it! He got to play and have fun so there was no guilt in leaving him in her hands. Thank you again Crystal for taking such good care of Prince.
I'm glad she cancelled on us 1/2 way through our dog boarding.... Even though she left us stranded and we had to scramble to find someone to pick up and watch our dog for the remainder of our two week long vacation, we at least now know he's safe, happy, and in good hands.... STAY AWAY. - They offered to send us pictures of our dog, but then claimed we asked too often (maybe once a day). - They cancelled on us, while watching our dog. - They clearly have this business solely for the money, not because they care about the dogs. - They stopped answering us and wouldn’t pick up, while they had our dog at their house. - Only one of the pictures she sent of our dog showed him happy/comfortable. He looked scared in the rest. - We were concerned for his safety.
I cannot recommend the barking lot enough! We have a rescue dog who is very high anxiety, doesn’t always get along with other dogs, and is scared of everything, including some people. But Sue is an expert and so great with her! We’ve tried other places in Jacksonville, but no where else gives our dog the same level of attention and care. You can tell how passionate Sue is about animals immediately when you meet her. It’s so great to be able to relax on vacation knowing our dog is being taken care of by someone who is so knowledgeable and caring! Sue is also very easy to reach and flexible - when we are on vacation we’re able to text Sue directly to check in on our dog and see how she’s doing! And she’s able to accommodate pretty much any time that works for us to pick up or drop off. The pricing is also very very good. We are so happy that we found the barking lot and will never go anywhere else!
Sue sits for and walks our Maltipoo Pearl. To say Sue is dog knowledgeable is an understatement! She’s honest, no nonsense and knows her craft. I highly recommend Sue as a dog sitter!
I've boarded our 70lb chocolate lab with Sue at the Barking Lot 3 times now and can say that I completely trust the Barking Lot to take good care of my pup while we are away. We adopted our dog from the shelter last year and not only did Sue take great care of our fur baby, but she recommended to us the right trainer to address his reactivity, and even taught us what to do differently to improve his coat. Whatever the Barking Lot lacks in aesthetics, it's made up by Sue's knowledge of and dedication to dogs. Make no mistake: Sue. Knows. Dogs! We will be back again whenever we need to board our dog in the future.
I’ve been coming to The Barking Lot for years with my dogs. They love going to doggy daycare everyday. They are well taking care of and very happy when I drop them off and when I pick them up. Sue is very compassionate. I won’t take my dogs anywhere else other then The Barking Lot
Sue is an absolute lifesaver. Our 40 lb Florida brown dog Marty loves coming to “Aunty Sue’s” for daycare and boarding. Sue provides complimentary baths and is very flexible with the plans, a necessary for our hectic schedule. We love The Barking Lot!
We lost our home in Irma and our 4 boxers and our doxie "The Pimp" were displaced. Susan, Brittany and Melissa went way beyond the call of duty in taking care of our babies. These people know how to take care of your fur babies. I highly recommend The Barking Lot. If you can find it in your heart please donate to this more than worthy organization.
I called Sue and asked her if she be interested in taking care of my dogs one day when I had to go in to the hospital for daytime surgery she told me she was really busy and that she would call me back later that day she never called me back I even drove down to her business she doesn't allow people inside and I just want to tell you she is just downright rude! I even left her a voicemail after she never called me back to please call me back and she never did! If this is how she treats customers she should go out of business like I said she's downright rude!
My sweet dog Elsie is blind and has special needs. The Barking Lot meets her needs and more. She is always lovingly cared for there I highly recommend the Barking Lot.
Sue and Melissa are miracle workers. Bear adores them, loves coming here and is improving in his behavior because he works with them every week. I can't recommend this place enough.
Just picked up my baby girl Daisy from a 3 day stay here. She's all smiles plus being fresh & clean from a complimentary exit bath. Miss Sue always take great care of my babies! We will definitely be using her again for any boarding needs.
Jo-Ann is amazing with our two boys! She is reliable, flexible, affordable, easy to work with, and just all around great! Our boys are pretty picky with who they like and they loved Jo-Ann from the very first meet & greet (which she does for free!) We get a detailed report (with pictures!) at the end of every visit. Knowing that Jo-Ann will be stopping by to let the boys out and spend some time with them while we are gone brings us such peace of mind. 10/10!
Thank you so much Jo-Ann for taking care of our senior fur baby Lola. Jo-Ann cared for Lola as if she was one of her own and stayed in communication with us throughout the entire visit. Would definitely recommend Jo-Ann’s services to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Joann’s service is definitely five star! She takes care of your pets like they were hers, we have never been so comfortable leaving our home and pet with anyone! Thank you Joann
The staff was fantastic with my dogs and I loved seeing them out at the pool even though they can’t be with other dogs. My boy can be a bit wary of new people and usually stays with my girl for comfort. She loves the pool and it was great to see her splash around and see their play timer encourage him to get in the water too!
My girls whom are GREAT DANES SEEMED RELAXED AND HAPPY WHEN I PICKED THEM UP AND GOT THEM HOME. This is why i always choose Pet Paradise the staff is very professional and friendly and i can feel the positive Ora.
Tough to get a live person on the phone. I don't like their Ai voice assistant on the phone. Please let me speak with a human easier. WIith that said, they always take great care of my dogs. Staff is always nice and helpful.
Horrible experience! Dropped off my dog for 5 days of boarding. On night one, they call from a private number saying my dog was in an altercation from another dog going after him. I couldn’t reach anyone to hear what happened. Finally, I called the following morning and heard what happened. Luckily my dog was okay. Fast forward to picking him up, I watched over 25 dogs run around outside rough housing with only one staff member “watching.” When they handed me back my dog’s belongings, I noticed they did not feed him his proper amount of food I pre-bagged. If your dog eats more than “3 cups” then you’re just out of luck. I hate being a person who leaves a bad review but I wish I knew what a mess I would be dropping my dog off to!! Go to a different location!
I took my dogs there and explained that one has separation anxiety and they can’t be separated. (He’ll sing the opera if they’re separated). I drop them off and tell the girl to tell my dog “no” if he nudges for pets. She tells me “no he’s just a baby”. Mind you my dog is 6 y/o. I’m at the airport and my dogs are separated outside without any prior notice, and now I have to pay an extra $10/day to have my dogs play privately with each other.
We toured this place to possibly daycare and board our two dogs, upon entering they greeted us and were very attentive to our needs and questions, they showed us around, seemed very clean, plenty of friendly staff all around! They gave us a free day to try and our two dogs loved it, the staff called us with updates and even gave us a doggie progress report on how they did to take home! We decided to book a boarding stay at the end of April, so I will review that later in the month! Overall pricing is a little more than other places but seems totally worth it for happy staff and happy animals!
I love Pet Paradise in Oakleaf. They always take good care of our dog. We’ve had two full grooms of our hyperactive golden doodle and we have been very pleased both times.
I will not be bringing my dog back here. The lady at the front desk was incredibly rude. Kevin was great and answered all my questions when I called him. They did not give my dog her medication and said that I didn't put it on file, I filled out the paperwork when I got there at 7 am for her medication. I am not very happy. They say that your pet matters but they can even give my dog her medication because I "didn't have it on file" even though once again I filled out the paperwork earlier that morning
Boarded my dog with them twice, first time for 4 nighs in. Feb 2024 everything was great no issues... Second time Aug 2024 for 3 nights. When we were dropping her off we were told that they had recently had a virus going around. We had to be on a plane and 4 hours and had no other options and had to leave her there. We had reservations with them for 3 weeks and they had multiple days time to call or email that animals were getting sick there but no one said anything until we couldn't make any other plans. Our dog was to be kept away from other animals with no social play because she is intact. And she was in an inside outside kennel. She came home with a terrible cough lethargic fevered wouldn't eat was a terrible case of kennel cough. And is now antibiotics and I've had to spend hundreds of dollars on vet bills. Because no one told us before our arrival so we can make other plans...
Being our first time using a Pet Paradise, we were blown away on our first visit. We got a tour of the facility and it exceeded our expectations. The staff is super friendly from the moment you walk in the door and really make you feel good about leaving your furbabies in their hands. The cameras on the playyards are one of our favorite features so we can check in throughout the day and see what’s happening. The staff are very interactive with the dogs. Their communication is also great. There is no doubt in my mind that my dog is well taken care of in their hands, and that is the best peace of mind I could ask for.
June is amazing with animals and has a heart of gold. She truly cares for every animal she takes in. I would trust her far before a pet boarding center as she will give one on one attention to your pet making sure it has everything it needs. No cold scary boarding cell. Just love and plenty of room to play!!
Hands down I would trust her with my cherished fur babies! Her love for animals is sensed by how much they love her. Your pet will never notice you are gone and may want to stay a bit longer!
Recommend 100% This is a very good place for leave your dog(s). They enjoy playing and when they arrive at home they are very tired 😴 …
They are wonderful with my little Penny. She has stayed with them several times. They take very good care of Penny. We love River City K9.🙂🙂🙂 …
We had an amazing experience at River City K9! We did the one week stay and train for our dog Luca. Jenna and her team were incredible! They worked miracles with our hyper dog! Luca was a leash puller who ran towards other dogs and distractions. He was not one who could focus and jumped on everyone in excitement. He can now walk on a leash without pulling, despite various distractions and stimuli. He will sit, stay, and wait on command. He is so focused when he is being asked to be! It is incredible! We will take advantage of the follow up opportunity and HIGHLY recommend River City K9!
My family went on vacation and this was the first time we have ever left our dogs EVER since we have gotten them and we were so worried honestly, but River City K9 was so great! They are very understanding and helpful. They will answer every and any questions you have. They will take you on a tour of the entire place. They send you Photos and updates or your furbabies. Very inexpensive. I couldn’t recommend them enough. They will definitely be used more in the future by my family.
My dogs love River City. They always come home tired, played out, and ready for dinner and bedtime! The staff is great, and the facility is clean.
Do not send your baby here!! Sending my dog to River City K-9 was the worst decision I have ever made. Major attitude problem amongst the workers. Vet bills due to heat exhaustion and dehydration. She left this place traumatized especially after training. She was shaking uncontrollably and no longer was playing with her toys. Made statements that my dog was aggressive which made us worry we would have to put my baby down. I have had her behavior evaluated by two other facilities since this place and they highly disagree with their evaluation. I have my dog going to a new facility and her happy personality has finally come back.
River City K9 is the best place I've found for my lab to stay. The staff are extremely professional, have years of experience, and genuinely care about the welfare of the animals there. They do training, grooming, and daycare in addition to boarding. The facility is beautiful and we love their bath system. My dog loves getting washed there. I also like how this place has individual runs for each kennel, which allows the ability to get exercise and enjoy the outdoors of the weather is nice. We are treated like family there, which makes me feel easy about leaving my dog there and don't worry while I'm away. They even send report cards letting you now how your fur baby is doing, which I love. I trust the owner, Don, and his staff implicitly. I highly recommend this "hotel" away from home!
Have had our 2 Belgian Malinois at River City for 5 and 4 years. The staff and owner Don has been nothing short of incredible.
Marcy is our 9 month old Border Terrier. Matt and Kaly worked with her for a week training sit, down, stay, come, heel, and place. The results really are amazing. I can’t say enough about Don and his team at River City K9, great facility and great people. We’re looking forward to the next step of her training in a couple of months. Thank you RCK9!!
I drive 45 minutes out of my way to bring my dog here. I always feel like the staff loves my dog which makes me feel good about dropping him off over night. My whole family brings their dogs here. The facility is always super clean as well! Thanks for taking great care of little Ralph!
I’m going to give a one star for this park. We went there the other day because Jacksonville doesn’t seem to have a good dog park and we went to see this one only to find out that my dog is not even welcomed in that park. According to their many rules your dog has to be fixed. Otherwise the dog is not allowed in the park. Your dog also needs to get six or seven shots before he or she can be in the park mingling with other dogs which I’m super not ok with. When we were there there were small dogs and big dogs in the same fenced in area without leashes and I’m not comfortable with that but that’s preference of the owner if they are not scared of something happening to their small dogs by the big dogs. We saw about five I think fenced in areas there. The very first one has a small lake inside of it where dogs can jump in and cool off. Again that’s a preference if you like your dog coming home with you super dirty in your car. I was thinking that even if we were accepted into this Park I would not feel comfortable letting my dog loose and go without a leash because he’s very tiny and easily can fall into that lake or get under other big dogs and I’m not comfortable with that. So no, this park isn’t for us and it’s also far.
We love this dog park! Not only does it have a lake but there is a wide open field with trails leading to it. It’s my dogs happy place!
My dogs had a great time at this park. The staff was very kind, welcoming and helpful. The lobby is clean and beautiful. I love that there is a dog washing station and it’s elevated with steps for the dogs so we didn’t have to bend over to wash them, I really appreciate that. The pond is so awesome. Such a nice place!
I could not thank poochies enough for the love they give to my benny! Everytime he comes to daycare he goes in tail wagging and comes home even happier but worn out! Not only does my dog get the exercise and socialization he needs but the people doing it are the most kind hearted individuals. I’d recommend poochies park, daycare, their on site vet to anyone and everyone with dogs. I am so grateful for this place❤️
Poochie’s is our favorite place to take our dog! The staff are always helpful and the place is usually pretty clean. Our dog LOVES the pond to swim in and we really enjoy the fenced in trail and field in the back. Toys, trash bags, trash cans, and water are always available for your dogs. It’s very affordable and worth the money! We boarded our dog there for a week once and it seemed to go great. My favorite is the holiday decor and thoughtfulness of events and activities that they provide regularly. We love Poochie’s!
Great Park! Our favorite dog park was shut down, Dogwood, for real estate reasons. Well I'm glad to say we have a new favourite. Poochie is awesome! Well at least the dog park is. We haven't tried the other facilities. People are real nice it has all the things a dog and the owner would want! We don't live in Orange Park, but it's worth the drive.
Usually have a wonderful time here. Most of the staff are so amazing and helpful! Today I went in around 11:30 and the girl at the front (not the blonde girl) was extremely rude. Not helpful at all. What a shame because I love to bring my dog here. Talked with one of the managers. She was very helpful and made me feel a lot better and respected! Glad everything was fixed because my Roxy girl loves it here
This membership only dog park is great. The main fenced in area is about 1.5 acres and includes a man made lake for water loving dogs, digging areas, tunnels for your dog, lots of balls and ball throwers, plentiful seating for people, and water and wash areas to give your pup a bath after playing. There is usually a few dogs and people here most times of day letting their pups play. Only neutered dogs are allowed and people usually are good about self policing their dogs behavior. If you want a little less interaction you can also go on a little nature walk along the short trail to the back play area which is a big 2-3 acre fenced in field, this is usually a pretty quiet area. They also have a seperate area for small dogs with a little pool, next to the regular area, often there are no dogs in the small area. The doggy daycare and kennel services pooches park offer are also good, although a little pricy our dogs always enjoy going to daycare here. You can get pictures during the day and they do fun activities with the dogs. Including cute seasonal photo shoots.
By far the best dog park in Jacksonville. The facility has a big filtered water pond, a big sand pit with tunnels for digging, ample benches and shade to sit and watch your dog play and even trails to walk your dog. Definitely worth the fee. The grooming services are great too. I have never had to use their boarding services, but when i take my dogs there to play at the park, i see the attendants taking the dogs out and spending time with them. I wouldnt take my dog anywhere else for boarding
After reading a few reviews on yelp I was a bit skeptical but I’m glad we gave it a try. We did a bit of research first. One item that caught our attention was that Poochies offer a free evaluation to see if your dog has dog etiquette. So of course we took advantage of the lesson and of course my girl did very well. I do recommend this offer you really want to make sure your pup has a positive experience during his/her visit. We listened to the trainer’s suggestions. There is a big field and most people go there first to meet a small group before heading to the big pond. So off we went to the big field and only two dogs with their owners were there. My girl did fine she gave everyone their space but manage to introduce herself with a game of chase. She chase them and they chased her. Once she was tired we headed out to the big pond. I was nervous because at this point there were more dogs with their owners. I know more girl loves the water and sure enough to the pond she went. She met a few friends and she just loved on everyone. We had a great fun day so much so that she is sound asleep right next to me. I want to thank Kylie for the tips and staying next to us to make sure our visit was a positive one. There is so much to do here and everyone is so caring and welcoming. We do recommend.
They are fantastic! We have a golden doodle, and a golden retriever, and they get treated like family here! Always come back looking adorable and with the cutest accessories on. Highly recommend.
Great place. Got my jack Russell grommed In no time and she smelled great. Highly recommend !!!!
Had my two dogs on a routine schedule with two groomers that were doing a wonderful job. To my surprise I found out from another customer that the groomers my dogs loved were fired with no warning by the owner. Now I'm left without a groomer and my dogs will likely never see two of their favorite people again. It's hard finding a groomer that is passionate about what they do AND can do a good job. Such a loss for everyone involved. I especially feel bad for all of the poor puppies that won't get to see their favorite groomers anymore
When I get my dog back she smells good looks good and she's happy. Seriously they do a good job especially on her nails. They are awesome.
I won’t be returning to this establishment. The owner wrongfully terminated the manager (who ran the shop for four years) and the only other employee (of two years) who I will let anywhere near my dogs. I haven’t had any good interactions with the owner and they only kept my business because of the outstanding work and care of the two employees who now, without any notice, are left without jobs after running that business for 4 years.
I'm very impressed with the personability and flexibility of the owner! My family has had only positive experiences with the grooming done here!
My Dixie hated baths,hated nails trimmed. The very things I took her to Best Friends, But she was never capable of hurting anyone. Best Friends was the 'best' place for her. Professional, gentle, kind, which made it easier on Dixie and me. I highly recommend you take your family dog to them. She passed away one week before Christmas. Thank you Best Friends for you did for her you are angels.😃🙏🐕👼
The groomers were wonderful, kind, and did an amazing job. The owner however was an absolute nightmare and incredibly disrespectful. You're better off taking your dog elsewhere
My dogs love coming here. Never have I seen anything like it. They run to the door to greet the two ladies that work there. My dogs love so…I love it! They always do great work and will work with you for scheduling.
Love these ladies ! Gentle, loving and great grooming. Been at a lot of places and Best Friends Grooming is the best ! Prices are low for the quality of service you and your pet receive. My babies will only be taken to Best Friends. I give them 5 stars !
Super place, such happy and enthusiastic workers who love dogs. It was a change of boarding kennels for me due to lack of space at my normal one and my dog is so happy to have been here. I took another almost week long trip and my dog was so happy to be back. They seemed to have taken great care of her and I would highly recommend this place to any and all. My dog loves the water and got to play daily daily in their pool. They do take them out and let the dogs run around which my dog needs on a daily basis.
Done Doggy day care and a night and the Owner/Staff are so loving to our Blk Gsd Germand Sheppard. He is not fixed and this place accepted him and now we can travel and know he will be at a place like home. I highly recommend friendly, Clean and alot of space for your fur baby.
My doggo and I love Happy Dog Inn. The staff is friendly and seem to really care for their 4 legged residents. The facilities are always clean and my doggo is always happy when we pick her up. Thanks for always taking care of our Sadie while we're out of town.
Despite coconuts separation anxiety, we felt safe leaving her at the care of the staff at happy dog inn. ❤️
We've been using Happy Dog for about 8 years. They're amazing. The staff love your pets,are very accommodating, and our pup always comes home happy
Takes good care of our needy dog while we're out of town. Locally owned, so no corporate red tape that goes with dealing with a needy dog. Always the same employees who know and love our dog.
We just came to look — I have a negative opinion on kennels — but this one was clean and the dogs had some room and AC
I recently moved to Green Cove Springs and with 3 dogs, needed a kennel for boarding. Leaving your fur babies anywhere is stressful. I am delighted to report that the Happy Dog Inn not only met but exceeded my expectations! The staff is caring and loving of the animals placed in their care. The price was reasonable and fair. We were happy to get home but happier to see that the dogs were well cared for.
My two dogs (and also my previous dog) absolutely love this place!! It always feel great to see how excited they are once they figure out where they are going (although still not quite as great as the excitement they show when we come to pick them up!). They usually can't wait to get out of the back of the truck and get inside. The facility is always very clean and organized, the staff are extremely friendly and professional, they seem to treat every dog I see there as if they were their own. We have been using them for over 10 years now, and truly hope we are able to use them for the next 10! I'm not going to lie, we are also a bit jealous that the dogs have their own pool, and we don't, lol. Highly, highly, highly recommend.
My dogs love this place. The staff is wonderful, the facility is clean, and the dogs come home happy from playing during their stay. Highly recommend!
