Dog Sitters in Patterson, MT

We took our 5 month doodle in for her first grooming session with out much idea of what to ask for. We handed our pup off to Brittney and asked her to do whatever she thought would be best. She took great care of our dog and we are very happy with the results!

I have two 14 year old little tiny dogs and a 11 month lab, I have been going to Bark City since April of this year, my older dogs have never been boarded or to daycare and they can't wait to go! My lab comes home tired which makes for a great night for me after a long day of work. My dogs kiss them when we arrive proving they feel loved. I am blessed to have Bark City staff in my life. They are truly amazing and an extension of family to my fur babies.

Bark City always takes good care of our dogs. We have a Siberian Husky and a Lab mix who are always excited to go there. They come back pretty tired from all the activity but are always happy to come home. Trusting someone to care for our family pets is important and I wouldn't trust anyone else. Great organization I can't speak highly enough about.

I love taking my dog here she’s is given great care and always loves coming back. The staff does an excellent job at making sure the dogs have their wants and needs taken care of.

I originally took my puppy to Bark City daycare because he wasn’t able to be home alone all day while I was working. I planned to only do it for a few months, and then have him home during the day once he was a little older. After taking him twice a week for two months, I can’t imagine not bringing him. He slides on the floor every morning trying to run as fast as he can to the back. He loves it, and it tired when he gets home! Nothing but great things to say about Bark City, highly recommend!

Great place to fight workday boredom or to overnight when needing to be dog free. All the staff is very nice. My high energy dog loves this place.

Love, love, love Bark City. Have been taking our pups to them for years. Love the service that Bark City gives. The team is kind and friendly. Their registration system is easy. If you call or email, they are super responsive. Have tried other dog care facilities and Bark City is the best!

Love Bark City! They post daily pictures of the dogs in action, which is very heart warming when you’re away from your furry friend. Always professional staff and the facility clean. They even give your dog a bath if s/he has stayed there x days. They also test the dogs before they can play directly with the bigger group to make sure they are friendly.

Fantastic service provided for our newly adopted dog. We had never used a groomer or boarding service but we already know we won’t be going anywhere else. They were so nice and made us and our dog feel comfortable and happy. You could tell he felt much better afterward too!

We starting using Bark City back in March and we love it! The staff is always friendly and had our pups name memorized on his first day! They post Facebook photos of all of the dogs playing everyday which is awesome to see when I’m at work! I recommend this place, the staff is awesome, the facility is clean, and my dog is always literally running in the door with excitement.

Never called me back after multiple phone calls. Drove by the grounds and was interested to see that it was someone’s house. Did not seem like there would be enough space for more than a couple of dogs at a time.

Great experience! Our pup loves Kate and comes home tired out from lots of play! Excellent price and Kate limits dogs to 8 or less per day so everyone has fun without getting overwhelmed. Will definitely be back again and again.

We recently had Kate watch our Bernese while we were in town for a football game. Kate was very accommodating and Bergen had a great time. We felt much more comfortable having our dog in this location rather than a large boarding facility. We will definitely be using Kate’s services again.

Wow! Kate was a stress saver on a very busy day in Bozeman. Due to MSU graduation ceremonies, finding out that Sit NStay can care for my two furrbabies was wonderful news, and I recommend Kate to anyone needing a furrbaby sitter.

I dropped my dog, Saje off with Kate for a 1/2 day and it went great. Kate was responsive, kind and took great care of my sweet pup. I also think her rates are well priced and I much prefer knowing my dog is in someone's home with a reasonable amount of dogs vs. a boarding facility. I highly recommend!

Highly recommend. We dropped off our dogs for two days each morning while we explored Yellowstone. We picked them up in the evening and they were tired and happy! More of a personal experience vs. a larger boarding facility.

Boone and Crockett give Sit’NStay two paws up-each! Very flexible drop off and pick up times, excellent communication and customer service. A great place to bring your pups if they need a place to stay.

I called in an emergency situation needing at least a call back but never got one. Would’ve been nice to be acknowledged as it states on the website within 24 hours.

Kate is great, my dogs love going there!

Know Thy Dog has taken care of our dog since she was a little puppy, both for daycare and overnight boarding. The staff are exceptional and share mutual affection with our dog, who always loves to see them. The team is very detail-oriented and engaged with each dog, making sure each pup’s experience is best-suited to their temperment and play style. We give the very highest recommendation to Know Thy Dog!

Know Thy Dog is an amazingly well organized Day and Boarding Kennel. My dog Bell stayed for a week. They take special care with the time of play and rest, groups and their interactions. The dogs are Always supervised. The outside play area is immaculate and when it is to hot out side there are large clean air-conditioned indoor areas. When they see anything out of the normal about your pet, they will immediately notify you. No hiding anything. I am so happy to have found them, for my Peace of mind. Yes, I am a neurotic pet owner...With KTD I feel very, very comfortable. Best choice and an added bonus, reasonably priced.

We take our pets to KNOW THY DOG on a very regular basis. I can’t say enough great things about the company, the accommodations, the staff and how they take care of your pets like they’re their own. Great people with lots of love for your animals just like you have. Can’t say enough great things about them.

My border collie mix, Ellie, has benefited so much from Know Thy Dog! She has been training with Max since she was 3 months old, and has also gone to daycare and done the 5 day board and train program. After doing the 5 day board and train with them, she came home so confident, happy, and exhausted! Max is so great at helping you really understand your dogs behavior so that you can more efficiently correct problems. With his help, I feel like I can communicate with Ellie in a way that makes sense to her. I really appreciate that no one on staff ever pressures you into signing up for more training than you need, and encourage and enable you to continue working with your dog by yourself. I can't recommend them highly enough!

We lived in Bozeman from 2019-2022 and our dogs adored Know Thy Dog. They helped my lab mix Zoe get her energy out and were really responsible with the activity for my pomsky Pippin who has bad back legs. We rescued Pippin in Bozeman and they really helped him come out of his shell and become the loveable goofball he is today. I always felt comfortable leaving them there because I knew they were loved and happy. We miss Know Thy Dog immensely and can't recommend them enough! If I'm ever back in the area I would not hesitate to use their services again.

Thank you for a welcoming (for human and dog) and kind experience. I appreciate the professionalism and firm sweetness that you operate with; our young dog loves going to KTD day care :) !

While visiting from out of state our dog stayed there over night on the 4th of july, they were very excited to have her and she seemed to have a good time. Love that they post pictures and videos of the dogs having fun. We will definatley take our dog there again when we go back to Montana.

Kelly and staff deserve more than 5 stars! Hank (and Brutus, his bf, bottom right) has been going there since he was a puppy and there is no place I would rather drop him off for daycare or for an overnight. Hank was a part of their overnight boarding "on leash training". It was suggested by Kelly as he was going to be there for a week anyways and it was the best decision I've ever made for him... Thanks Max! HIGHLY recommended!

We boarded my dog ( for the first time ever ) here over the weekend while we were getting married. They were responsive and communicated with us and helped alleviate our anxieties of leaving him. I got a message on my wedding day congratulating us on our day and a photo of him in a little tuxedo tie. The personal touches and care for my dog was incredible and I cannot recommend this place enough. And it was extremely affordable. We are so grateful for Know Thy Dog and how much easier it made our weekend. Thank you!!

If I could, I would post a video of my dog Harper's tail wagging at full speed when she realizes she's being dropped off for daycare at Know Thy Dog, because that says it all. The staff members are so kind and clearly genuinely care about each pup that is in their care. Clean facilities and clear communication. Highly recommend!

I wanted to share our experience with CC and her doggie motel. Our 6 year old Golden Retriever has had fabulous in-their-home dog sitters any time we traveled in the past. We brought her with us to Big Sky for the summer, and had several planned trips. I researched boarding her in dog sitters' homes, and didn't find anyone that fit our needs. I was hesitant to board her at a facility, instead of a home. After reading about CC McNeil, her background and education emphasizing animal behavior, and passion for dogs, I contacted her about boarding our pup. Josie's first stay was three weeks! CC's communication is professional and courteous. I feel comfortable texting her asking about Josie, and she'll respond, often with a photo or video of Josie in action! The attached photo is of Josie after picking her up from that long stay. We feel fortunate to have found a reliable, well-run "home away from home" for our girl near Big Sky!

We had a family road trip planned from Washington State to Montana with a two day stay in Yellowstone. Unfortunately, we didn’t realize that Yellowstone was not very dog friendly until we were on the way. We frantically searched for dog boarding near the park and with some incredible stroke of luck found CC’s dog boarding. I was able to book our pup’s 2 night stay within hours. CC was very responsive and friendly. Our drop off/pick up times changed a bit due to traffic and travel times, but she was so flexible. We of course won’t be using this dog boarding regularly since we live in Washington, but for anyone looking for dog boarding in or near Bozeman, MT we would absolutely recommend CC!

I have had good experiences in the past, but my most recent experience was very negative, and I will not use this boarding place in the future. The owner's customer interactions were very poor and unmerited. She made me feel I had done something terribly wrong and I honestly try to never offend or hurt anyone. I just wanted to clarify, so I simply asked questions, and she was very offended. I've referred my friends to this business, and they've had similar poor experiences with the owner.

CC, the owner of Doggie Daycare & Motel, was a delight to work with! My dog was anxious about being in boarding for 10 days, but CC gave her lots of extra time and attention to make sure she was as comfortable and relaxed as possible. CC was a great communicator. She sent updates whenever I asked or if she needed something, but I still felt completely free to enjoy my vacation. Prices were excellent, and the 24/7 pick up/drop off is a fantastic feature. I highly recommend this place and will certainly use it again in the future!

We have been bringing our furbabies here for over 14 years. They are always loved and cared for just like they would be at home. We are very grateful for CC and her staff and highly recommend them.

CC was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was a huge help accommodating a very short notice request. She took great care of both dogs and allowed me to have a wonderful day skiing. Self check in and check out enable flexibility and I highly recommend this business for anyone in the Bozeman/Gallatin/Big Sky area! Your animals will be well taken care of

This place is the best! I boarded my cat for the first time at Doggie Daycare and was very impressed by the level of care, interaction, and attention each kitty gets. The facilities are clean, spacious, and lots of fun for kitties. When I went to pick my cat up, she even showed me her cat tree. :) My cat has very bad separation anxiety, so this was a really positive experience for us! Would highly recommend! The owner and her daughter are true animal lovers, great communication, and very caring. Also flexible with pick up/drop off times.

CC took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. She was very easy to communicate with and sent photos of all the fun the dogs were having. The facility is clean and calm. The check-in/out process is a breeze. We are so happy to have found a great place to take our girl to when we can’t be home with her.

CC is the bomb and I'd trust her with my fur babies any time! We had never boarded our kitten (or any animal) before and I couldn't be happier with our decision to go with CC! She took such great care of our girl and kept us updated frequently with pictures. The cat condos are spacious and very well maintained and I will 100% board here again.

We've been bringing our pug to Doggie Daycare & Motel during vacations for 3 years and are very pleased with their service. I love that you can tailor your animal's experience during their stay, and the drop off and pick-up are so quiet, calm, and easy. Our pug recognizes the motel as soon as we get there. She gets excited and a little nervous, but never cowers like she doesn't want to go. Different story when we visit the vet!!

Cheri and her helper are THE BEST! They provide consistently reliable, attentive, trustworthy and thorough pet sitting with a kind-hearted touch--they obviously LOVE their charges and we are so happy to have found them. We know when we're out of town that our kitties are in good hands with Cheri in charge and that peace of mind is priceless. At-home pet sitting is also so much healthier for our kitties--less stressful, no exposure to other potentially sick cats, they only eat their own food and they get the run of our home. Just say 'no!' to "kitty jail"!

I've used Sarah 3 times now. Highly recommend!

Dawn has been walking our puppy for 9 months now and she might well be his favorite human. We’ve had Dawn check in on him during the day and house sit for a long weekend, and in every case she’s been fantastic. Not only does our dog love spending time with her, her communication and reliability has always been spot on. She’s the best in the business!

My dogs love Dawn! They get so excited when she comes to get them because they know there is fun and adventure in their future. She treats them with lots of love and affection and she knows just what each of them needs to have a successful walk. I never worry about them when I know that Dawn is coming to take them out and look forward to coming home to tired, happy dogs. If you're looking for a reliable, dog loving, trustworthy person to watch or walk your dogs, Adventure Pawtners is your answer.

We are the lucky owners of Smokey the wonder Aussie who is very sweet but also has A LOT of energy... Dawn took it as her personal challenge to wear him out and has succeeded! He absolutely loves her and the adventures she takes him on. Dawn is hands down the best pet/house sitter we have ever had. We also have a 14 year old yellow lab and Dawn is just as caring with Pink on his slow ambles around the block as she is when skinning you’re Bridger with Smokey. Even our finicky kitten loves her! I can’t recommend Adventure Pawtners highly enough, whether your pup needs some tiring out during the week or you’re out of town and need someone to watch over your crew while you’re away Dawn and Mackenzie are our go to gals!

Dawn has been so wonderful! She is reliable, responsive, and takes the best care of our pups. So thankful for her help and we will definitely continue to use her services. We highly recommend her and trust her.

Amazing!! The staff here are incredibly passionate and professional. My adventurous chocolate lab, Hudson, loved it! I will be using this service weekly. Thank you thank you!

Mackenzie sat with our dog for a week, he was so happy and learned many new skills, I highly recommend her to you.

Two paws up from my dog!

Great day care / boarding spot, our pup has so much fun there and you can tell they treat the dogs well. They also send some fun update photos that have wound up being some of the best photos we have of our loving playful little guy. Can’t say enough good things about them!

If you are looking for either boarding or daycare, SEND THEM HERE!!! I don’t know if I’ve ever been more impressed!!! Our babies spent two weeks at DDB and they came home looking AMAZING! They came out as if they’d been at a slumber party with their friends. Every staff member is absolutely lovely - Renee is so wonderful and attentive to your babies needs. You can feel the staff’s warmth and care the moment you walk in. We will be coming back again and again for daycare and boarding!

We cant give Dog Days any higher praise than seeing our Miss Kitty ! The love and professionalism Dog Days have shown with their staff is incredible ! Being so worried having to board her somewhere while we took our vacation was hard to do . Dog Days has given us updates of information and pictures of our Miss Kitty ! .. and has made our trip easier! Thank you Dog Days ! 💓

Reneé and the team always love having my dog, Dude, in for overnights or daycare. He loves it there and they always send pics throughout the stay to give you an update of how your pet is doing. Emily has been cutting Dude's hair for years now and always does a fantastic job! He is a goldedoodle and has difficult hair. Would highly recommend for boarding/daycare/grooming 5.5 out of 5 stars!

Dog Dayz is an amazing pet daycare and boarding facility. Conveniently located off 90 at the Bear Canyon exit, the owner and staff are super friendly and knowledgeable They are also great with communication while my dogs are there, texting updates and pics each day! I appreciate the individual care they give to my pups!!

We absolutely LOVE Dog Dayz. We’ve been sending our yellow lab Daffy to them for daycare and boarding for the last few months and I’ve never seen him so excited to do anything. As soon as we turn down the street towards daycare he starts howling and trying to climb out the window to get there faster. And when we walk in he practically drags me through the front door. It’s so nice to know he’s happy, safe, and with people who truly love what they do.

We love Dog Dayz and so do our pups, Mav and Van! We have mostly worked with Renee and she has such a kind and caring demeanor. The boys are excited to go and are well cared for. We got update text and pictures during their boarding stay. Recommend 100%! (Photos are from a recent stay at Dog Dayz)

I have to shout out Dog Dayz Bozeman!! After a not so great boarding experience at a different facility in the area, we weren’t sure that we’d ever find another place we trusted enough to take them to, or that they’d enjoy. I heard about Dog Dayz from a friend who I trust with my life and knew they’d never recommend a place they didn’t have confidence and trust in. We’ve taken our two girls there twice now. The first time we took them to Dog Dayz, they were understandably nervous as they had a horrible experience the previous time. They were apprehensive and reluctant. The second time we took them, it was a night and day difference in their demeanor! They were excited and eager to play and see their dog friends! Arguably, the best part of the girls’ stay at Dog Dayz is getting the daily photos of their activities! It so reassuring to see their happy faces playing, lounging, and getting all the pets! (Please enjoy some that we’ve gotten) For everyone in the Bozeman area, we cannot recommend Dog Dayz enough!!

Dog Dayz has become my place for all things puppy related. My dog comes home tired and gets really excited when we arrive. Emily does an amazing job grooming! She was very patient with him but also got it done quickly! I love dog Dayz!!! They also send pictures of my pup having fun through out the day. Also prices are so reasonable!!!

Best dog boarding I have ever taken our doodle to (and coming from the Midwest it says a lot)! They sent photos and communication each day of him playing with other pups and loving the outdoors, letting us know that he was constantly in good hands! Dog Dayz is the only place we will take our pup now!! 🤎 …

We boarded our dog for a week while we stayed in Yellowstone. Her stay was fantastic! What a great place! She was safe and happy and we could relax and enjoy the park. Thank you so much for caring for her as we would.

Would have made a reservation for our two herding dog mixes but they don’t accept pit bulls or pit bull mixes. I had the best rescue pit for more than 10 years. This policy reflects poorly on this business.

We couldn’t be happier with everything that Blake, Elizabeth, and amazing acres have done for our puppy. We started taking her a few moths ago and there is no doubt that they are helping her become such a social and happy dog. They are so awesome dealing with any of my questions and are always quick to respond. We will be taking Jolene (and any future dogs) to amazing acres as long as they’ll have us!

We boarded both of our cats and they both did very well! We will definitely bring them here again when we need to board them.

We love the care and attention that Rusty receives here! Blake and his staff make it so much easier to leave our fur baby because we know he will be happy and well taken care of!

We absolutely love Amazing Acres! Our dogs do too. Blake and Elizabeth were wonderful to work with and took great care of our pups. Blake has built a beautiful facility and was very clear about rules and guidelines for our dogs' stay, which we greatly appreciated. Our dogs came home happy and tired. :o)

We scheduled a tour with Blake and really liked the facility. We then scheduled our two dogs for doggy daycare for a trial run . Everything went great so we scheduled them for a week. I'm one of those pet parents that cries when I leave my dogs and then worry about them the whole time. I didn't cry and I didn't worry about them once! It was so great. Blake posts pictures on his Facebook page so you can see your fur babies and what they are doing. Thank you so much! It really is an amazing pet resort.

Such a great and well run facility! Our basset hound Lance recently spent 12 days at Amazing Acres and came home very tired and missing all of his new friends. The photos that were regularly posted gave us such a sense of comfort that he was doing well and hadn’t been grounded for chewing something up. 😁. The resort is clean and laid out in such a way to accommodate dogs of all sizes. There’s also a great space for kitties. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend this place! We were so grateful to have our two pups stay here for a couple of days. Blake was extremely communicative and accommodating to our pups specific needs. I was extremely impressed with the facility. It was clean, the kennels were big and each included a doggy door.

Blake and Elizabeth were an absolute joy to work with. Blake is very clear with his expectations only to make the experience a positive one for you and your pets. I was a little concerned because my dogs are with me 24/7, but both of our dogs did great. Please look no further if you're looking for a quality, professional place to board your pets. Plus, you would never guess it was a boarding kennel, it smells so clean when you walk in! I do believe we've found our go-to kennel for the future. Thank you Blake and team!

Absolutely love this place for my pups and they love going! Very kind and accommodating. Highly recommended getting your pups bathed too! They always come home smelling wonderful!

When Cottonwood Vet closed down their boarding facility, I needed to scramble to find another boarding facility. I chose Animal House because they had good reviews and similar cheaper rate. So far the transition to this facility has gone smooth. They are very flexible with their scheduling and make drop off and pick up very convenient with text communication and will accommodate you if something comes up. Although my dog does not like going to any boarding facility because of separation anxiety, he never comes back injured or scared. Highly recommend their service!

I can't express how pleased I am with Animal House Bozeman! My dog Freddy stayed here in January over MLK weekend when a cold snap brought temperatures in Montana into the negative 30's-50's depending on where you were. I was worried sick about leaving my pup that weekend but I had important travel plans that couldn't be delayed. They took excellent care of him despite the wild weather conditions. It's everything you want from a boarding facility. He'll be staying there again this summer and I'm thrilled to have a place that I can't trust will take care of my boy.

We've had Jake and Dayna take care of our dogs for over 10 years. They are amazing people and my dogs have always been excited to go to the Animal House!

Our Great Pyrenees stayed with them for a week. He got to play with the other pups during his stay and came back happy. We also really appreciated that she understands his breed. Highly recommend!

My two Brittany spaniels love staying here! They are excited to play with the others when we arrive, they aren’t anxious when I pick them up, and I feel they have been well cared for (one with special needs and meds). Highly recommend!

Animal House has been amazing for my dog, May. I can always tell she's spent a lot of energy playing with other dogs there and Dana always gives me a report with specific details about dogs May has befriend. It's my first choice for a boarding facility whether I'm going out of town for the night or a week, not to mention it's so much more reasonably priced than any other kennel I've found in Bozeman.

We have been taking our Springer here since we've gotten her and the owners always remember her and know her personality. I can tell she taken care of here and in safe hands!

We've been daycare customers for several years now. They've been nothing but accommodating, have great prices, and really care for the animals. Always recommend them to friends.

Our dog has stayed there several times and loved it, but in one incidence our dog stomach flipped and started to get distended, she would have died while we were away had it not been for her and are forever grateful that she caught it in time!

Anne is the best! She went above & beyond taking care of my dogs & home! I received thoughtful updates with videos & I could tell they were loving their time with her. It’s so difficult leaving my pups but with Anne I didn’t worry about my dogs once while on vacation. I am so thankful to have her care for my pups🩷 …

Anne is amazing! She has helped me out with my dog on numerous occasions…. Even when I randomly called her for advice on my dog’s behavior. Anne is such a kind and easy going person which makes her easy to work with. And of course, she is great with dogs! Definitely recommend!!!

Anne is an excellent pet and house sitter - she is trustworthy, reliable, and very professional. She is very experienced and was instantly comfortable with our dogs, both big and small. It is invaluable to have that peace of mind while travelling knowing that our dogs and our home are in her care. I highly recommend her!

Anne is a wonderful person and amazing dog behavioral therapist. She has helped our pups be more confident in and out of the home and they are happier dogs because of it. She took the time to assess each dogs behavior and tailored a program that met their needs and ours. She also takes wonderful care of them when we have to leave town. Her attention to every detail is unmatched! Our boys have never felt more comfortable while we are away!

Anne has watched my dog and house several times and has always been fantastic! I’m very particular and cautious when it comes to dog sitters and I can say that I completely trust Anne. My dog was actually sprayed by a skunk while I was away and she knew exactly what to do (I wouldn’t have)! 5 stars all around and your pets will be in great hands!

I met Anne through my work as a vet tech and saw first hand how much she cared for her clients, and seamlessly managed to integrate them into her daily schedule. She was alert to health issues, and her clients seemed truly comfortable in her care.

Anne has been a knowledgeable and dependable dog care provider, and cares for animals as if they were her own family. A rare example of caring and professionalism. Would highly recommend.

Summit is by far the best place I've taken my dogs. I've tried most places in the Bozeman and Belgrade area and Summit stands above them all. You can tell their team takes pride in what they do and really take good care of the dogs. The dogs get far more supervision compared to most larger boarding facilities as well as more room/time to run around outside. Needless to say, my dogs absolutely love this place and I can trust they are in good caring hands.

Jeff and Olivia are the best! My dogs are always so happy to go either for the day or for sleepovers. I highly recommend Summit Pet Resort.

Summit is the absolute BEST daycare/boarding in the area!! I feel so blessed to have found them. They are incredibly attentive, understanding, and very sweet owners. Bandit used to start shaking and dread going to his other daycare in Bozeman so I knew I had to try somewhere else. Then I found Summit!! Bandit was sooo excited to go every day and came home exhausted. I wish I wasn't moving out of state because I know I won't find another facility like them! If you're doggy daycare shopping, this is the one. Thank you guys for taking wonderful care of Bandit <3

Highly recommend Summit Pet Resort for dog ranch day care and/or boarding. The owners at Summit are like second parents to our best boy, Conner!

I wanted to write this review for any folks that also have nervous and shy pups as we do. You can take my review with a grain of salt considering our pup was only here for a couple of hours and I don’t really know how to properly rate them however I also don’t think that it would’ve been fair to give Summit a bad review seeing as I don’t think they are fully to blame for our dog not making it through her trial and most of my experience with them was positive even though we were denied. They also have tons of great reviews (which is why we tried it out) so I’m sure it’s a great place to leave your dog. I can only speak towards my experience and ultimately we really wanted it work out. The facility has a massive field for dogs to run around in and play which unfortunately happened to be a negative in our case. A bit of background, we got our pup at 4 months old and sadly she wasn’t properly socialized with strangers and despite our best efforts to get her socialized she remains timid around unfamiliar people unless she is around them consistently. I informed Summit of this and to my dismay was given a call just two hours after I dropped her off telling me to come pick her up because they weren’t able to grab her in the fenced in area. So my suggestion, and their recommendation to me is to find a place with a smaller play area. We have actually taken her to Know Thy Dog and Bark City previously and she has been accepted to both. We love our dog dearly and have given her every opportunity to become a more confident dog with things like training, taking her to work most days, and occasionally enrolling her in daycare. Unfortunately, she is just a timid dog and Summit wasn’t able to accommodate her which is totally understandable and I don’t fault them for it. It just wasn’t a good match and we are disappointed because honestly from the very little interaction we had with staff I felt they were very nice, the sign up was easy, and they were available for daycare and boarding when others were full, so if you have a very friendly dog this is probably a great fit for you, we certainly wish our dog was able to stay here and get all that running room. But for those who have shy dogs like ours maybe try a smaller place. My only negative thing I have to say about Summit is when I asked for a bit of refund for the day, since she was only there for 2 hours, they told me she received plenty of one on one time, almost an hour and a half worth, and should be very tired and then followed that by saying they don’t do refunds on trial days. If they had just told me they don’t do refunds on trial days and that’s their policy I wouldn’t have minded and totally understood, but to tell me the reason I’m not getting a refund is because she got a bunch of one on one time right after you just called me to pick her up because she wouldn’t come near you doesn’t really add up to me. If you can’t get near her I wouldn’t consider that one on one time, I would say that’s alone time. Just tell me you don’t do that and that’s all you have to say. That’s super nit picky though and would be my only constructive criticism for the team there (didn’t really expect to be refunded anyways just thought I’d ask). Anyways, give these guys a shot, it seems like a great place, but don’t be surprised if you get denied having a shy pup.

The best dog care option in the valley, in my opinion. They post photos of your dog on social media, which is a fun way to check in and see how he is doing. We've never had a bad experience at Summit, and they've been flexible and understanding (even despite the fact that our dog is currently a 9 month old 60lb Australian Shepherd who still in full blown puppy mode).

I have utilized this facility a few times in the last year and a half, and I have always been impressed. Recently, my pets stayed for about a week. Roughly 40 minutes before picking up my dogs, I got a phone call about my pet being in distress with no obvious external wounds. When I got there, I was able to identify an external puncture wound upon inspection, which required advanced wound care, and internal and external stitches. I understand pets get hurt, but the condition in which I found her was not an acute onset of symptoms. The wound was older and needed immediate medical attention. Additionally, Summit did not handle it well and denied any explanation as to why my pet was hurt. They acted cold and unapologetic. They offered no assistance and did not even call the check on her condition after visiting the emergency room. Due to their overall assessment and reaction to my pet being hurt, and the nature of the situation, I no longer trust any of my pets in their care and cannot continue to recommend them.

When leaving for the holidays, It is always a trick to make sure your pets are in good hands. You want your pets to feel and be safe, fed properly as well as get to run around. Summit Pet Resort does not just meet these expectations, but exceeds them in every way. Olivia and Jeffrey are exceptional people who I have complete faith in. Thank you both for taking care of Grit! I am so thankful to have a place for my pup that I can depend on when I am unable to be here!

Jeff and Olivia took in my high maintenance pup while I was visiting family over the holidays. These two took very good care of my dog! Thanks for keeping him healthy, safe, and entertained. I really appreciated their transparent approach to boarding while maintaining boundaries to help keep the dogs safe. They were very comfortable giving him his medication and made sure to include him on their regularly updated social media. There was a trail day before he could be boarded where Jeff and their head trainer Max answered any questions I had. Thanks again!

I have taken my dog other places and been totally happy, but I recently brought him to Summit Pet Resort and I love it! He cries the whole way there because he’s so excited, and sleeps the whole way home. I love that he has 2 acres to run around, and that they post lots of pictures of him throughout the day. They are so friendly and attentive. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my dog in someone else’s care!
