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.

Janet and Bob were great to our pups and our home! They were our first sitters so we weren’t really sure what we were getting into, but they made it an awesome experience! They are coming back to stay with our dogs again in August. Definitely trust them with your fur babies!! 🐾🐶
Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉
Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa! We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best! First, communication was fabulous from the start. They put me at ease before they ever got here. Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures. They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world). They handled her medications with no problem. It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them! I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!
Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose. Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes. They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit. They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day. They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety. We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard. He was so happy! No problems were encountered with the house. Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose. The house was spotless when we returned. Everything in proper order, better than we left it. We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!
Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.
Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.
First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!
Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.
I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!

Our dog Robin loves staying here when we are on trips. The staff here is amazing and always does a great job grooming her before she gets picked up. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a boarding place in Lacey.
We recently left our dog day care provider because of a conflict in operational requirements of our dogs. The operator running a compliance first, companionship second philosophy. Our dogs don’t need to be in day care regularly, but every so often and we’re looking for a place where they can have fun, gain social exposure and be safe when we’ll be gone for a longer than normal time during the day. Bark yes also addressed our needs for occasional additional services. Since I’m reviewing this on what is just their second day there, we haven’t taken advantage of the services just yet, but we will. The idea that they’re not playing in muddy rainy exteriors all day is amazing. I am Happy they are welcome at Bark Yes and a behavioral “report card” they submit during the stay is awesome. So if there are some issues with behavior or interactions we know what to do at home. So far, as I said I’m glad they are in a place where they can be safe, have fun, and be well cared for. Beyond recommended!
I would highly recommend Bark Yes. Our dog LOVES going there, the staff is always helpful and friendly to us both! Spencer (our dog) always comes home happy, tired and smelling so good. I really appreciate knowing that our pup is having a great time when he's there.
Been going here since 2022. Service has changed drastically and we will be placing our money elsewhere. Based on Google reviews, there has been sketchy things going on behind the scenes and I’m not even sure that they have a proper fire drill in case anything happens. Sucks because we live nearby and this used to be a good place. I just can’t leave my dog somewhere that I don’t trust completely. A couple of years ago, my dog loved going to this place — but the past few times, didn’t even want to enter the building. That tells me enough.
Our dogs are always happy to get their playtime in on their daycare days! Staff is helpful and always welcoming!
I’ve been taking my dog here since I’ve moved here this summer and it’s so nice to know I don’t have to worry about my fur baby! He always has an amazing time and is excited to go and then sleeps like a baby when we get home! I’ve been on extended trips where I get happy pupdates and he always smells amazing after his exit bath! Excellent and understanding staff! Highly recommend!
Don’t usually leave reviews but I went here after great recommendations and positive online reviews but honestly was left disappointed. Took our dog for grooming. Yes they bathed him but just stuck him in a kennel to dry. He has long hair and requires a brush but he wasn’t brushed at all. Still pretty damp when we picked him up, which isn’t terrible but usually he’s dry when we go other places. His face still leaves our hands greasy and smelly when we pet him. Probably the worst bath our dog has gotten. It was the cheapest bath I’ve ever gotten. So if you’re looking for affordable and have a short haired dog probably would be okay. Would not recommend long haired pups. Also paid for a nail trim and his nails weren’t touched. Not worth the price. I usually only bathe him once a month. He’ll need another bath in probably a week. Could honestly use one again today because his hair on his face and ears are still pretty greasy. The staff was really nice and helpful but unfortunately I will not come be back here.
Our two dogs Artemis and Aspen, have been to a couple of day care places but when we went to bark yes we knew it was the right place. Before they would hide in the corner and not play but here they have turned into playing maniacs and are so excited to go to daycare. We love having bark yes as an option for our high energy dogs to go to and have fun. We trust them to look after our babies, and that it huge. The staff is always friendly and we appreciate all you do to help care for our girls!
Such a great place. My dog loves the facility and the staff. Most caring, energetic, dog-friendly place in our area. The staff is so friendly and know all their furry guests by name. Highly recommend Bark yes. Especially Kaya and Emma, they were so much help!
I have three dogs and have left my dogs at BarkYes on a few occasions. Each time has been a worse and worse experience, I recommend after one bad experience not to bring them back. Last October we left our dogs and they were returned covered in pee and dehydrated. I thought of it as a fluke and decided to give them another chance this August. Our dogs were left Friday morning and picked up Saturday evening. One night cost almost $300, which would have been worth it had they been treated properly. When we picked them up, all three reeked of pee. One specific was soaked with urine. When I called they stated they had an influx of dogs for the weekend so smaller play spaces and that our dog may have rolled in other dogs' pee. I was offered a free bath, which was unnecessary since I called after immediately bathing them at home. They stated if the dogs had been there longer, they would have called to ask if I would like to pay for a bath. To me, my dogs were not treated properly and it sounds like this boarder is exceeding its limit on the amount of dogs it can handle. I will not be bringing my dogs back and would not recommend to others.
My two huskies spent a day at doggie daycare and had a great time. They are a very busy place, but always take the time to handle my pups and be patient with them. I appreciate the staff and the great care they provide. Also recently boarded my huskies while I went out of state to help care for an ill parent. My stress was already high from the situation and leaving my fur babies only added stress. The staff were so kind and understanding. They gave me updates whenever I wanted and the pictures they sent were great. I am not sure the fur babies missed me at all! They had so much fun. I had them groomed on the day I picked them up too. It was the best grooming they had ever had. Super impressed and just love this place. See photos of fun.
I was super worried about boarding my dog as it has been 2-3 years and when he went to doggy daycare, he had a bad experience there….. however, Northwind was great!! They took good care of my boy and made sure he had the best experience! They even were able to get him to play in the social times with other dogs, which surprised me because my dog is a lil crazy sometimes.. Thanks so much for taking care of my baby while I was out of town! It’s greatly appreciated & I will be bringing him back here!
This started out a positive experience. We were boarding our 3 dogs for the first time, back in early July. We toured the facility less than a week before we dropped our dogs off to make sure we were comfortable with the decision. Everyone seemed nice and knowledgeable. We dropped our crew off 6 days later. We were gone for approx a week. When we came back, we picked up the crew and got a rundown on how they had done. We were impressed. Next day I noted my dogs were acting poorly, sneezing, coughing, lethargic. I called the kennel to ask them about it and I was told, oh yeah, there's Bordatella going through the kennel. I was told they posted a sign. We were there 3 times and never was it mentioned. I was told to just give them cough medicine and they would be fine. I was also told they would check on us in a couple days to see how it was going. We decided to call our vet and they said they would need to go on antibiotics. We also called our doctors, because my husband is a transplant patient and We were told we needed to get on antibiotics as well. There were times during the first couple of weeks our dogs were so sick, we had to sit with them in the bathroom with shower on to help them breathe. Our dogs began having diarrhea issues not long after that. We thought it was stress and the antibiotics. A few weeks later we had them tested, since it wasn't going away, and we were told they had giardia as well. Now, our dogs don't go anywhere, and they aren't around any other animals, so the only explanation was tue kennel. When we explained to our vet what had taken place and about how the kennel had handled things once we got home, they were not happy. Posting a sign and never disclosing at any point before, during or after our dogs were there, was considered poor practice in their eyes. It's one thing if the kennel staff didn't know, but they did. Why didnt they shut down and clean, air out, or whatever before taking in more dogs. We paid extra for our dogs to be kept separate from the other dogs to keep them as safe as possible. And we checked on them several times while we were gone. We also had a backup person available if they needed to be picked up. Them coming home with 2 seperate illnesses never crossed our minds. So the first thing some one is likely to say, when reading this, is these things happen. We are now heading to the end of October and our dogs are STILL sick. We've gone through several rounds of antibiotics, testing, other medications, constantly disinfecting and we are still dealing with diarrhea on a daily basis. That is 3 MONTHS of constant sickness, stress, expenses, medications, and there's no relief in sight. We have been told by the vet that because it is so contagious they keep giving it to each other. I have other pets in my home that have had to stay separated from the dogs, which compounds the stress, anxiety and workload. I want people to really think about that. We wanted to go on a vacation, which we hadn't done in years, and this is what we were left with. No being up front, no follow ups, nothing. Why would this place think ANYONE would be okay with playing roulette with their dogs health. This has ruined any trust we have in placing our pets with anyone else. If you think this is not a big deal, or okay in anyway, go ask your vet if they think this practice is okay. My husband left a review a few months ago and, in his words, no one cared. Still no follow up or explanation on why my dogs came home this sick. I'm angry. I'm angry and I'm frustrated that this experience gets a shrug and an oh well. I've noticed alot of people are speaking highly of this kennel, it was recommended to us as well, but this was our experience after ONE time when our dogs were being kept to themselves. NEVER AGAIN.
The staff was great, the tour was great but when we picked our dogs up they all had Bordetella (kennel cough). When we called them the person told us that there was something posted on the wall and we should of read it. If you are having any issues where our animals can get sick it should be discussed with us. Staff was very friendly and I liked the facilities but having a real tough time with our dogs being sick from staying there
Northwind Pet Center is a great place to drop you dog or cat off fir the day or when you go out of town. Their kennel areas are temperature control and their prices are reasonable. I highly recommend them.
Very caring and efficient. Clean. Playtime. My dogs love NorthWind. Professional. Been going here for 20 years. Love them!
The only place I trust to take care of my dog. Competitively priced and a lot of different playtime and grooming options available when boarding
This place has been here as long as I can remember. I took my hounddog here decades ago, and my wife takes her dog here currently. Every aspect is well worth the fee.
These guys do a great job at grooming our dogs. Highly recommend them. The manager and staff go all out for Halloween decorations.
JBLM Service members find another spot for your furry family members. I got my husky back with a gash on his head and a swollen face. After talking with the staff they said some other dog went after him after reviewing video footage and then I got the reply of, "we're not responsible for injuries at playtime." I doubt I'm getting the full truth because my dog is also wincing like he's afraid he's going to get hit and he's never done that before. Additionally: Don't take my word for it just look at other 1 star reviews and see the pattern for yourselves. Update: This kennel and their inept owner can count their blessings our furry family member made a full recovery. Talked with several vets about what happened and they think he either was trying to escape and got stuck or he was hit. I can't afford bail money should I find I was lied to and he was hit so y'all get a free ride on this one.
Amy and Rae took care of my kitty, Bella, while I was at a knitting retreat this weekend. I felt so confident that they would make sure that she was fed, watered, litter box cleaned and she was happy! They were able to give Bella her asthma inhaler which was so comforting to me! I will always use Oh My Dog Sitters for my pet's care in my absence.
Amy and her team are *great* and the Client Portal system is a huge time-saver. All of the sitters are great and the daily visit check-in, with an activity report and photos, is so reassuring. I would highly recommend Oh My Dog to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Amy and her crew were the best!!! Came and met my animals before and then got on the floor with them and played. They made me feel so comfortable to leave all 4 animals in their care. They came 3 times a day and walked the dogs and loved on them every visit. Each visit they contacted me to say they were there, sent pics and then gave details of their visit. They let me know when they left and how the dogs went potty and what treats or food they gave them. Highly recommend Oh My Dog (sitters) I look forward to having them in the future
Can't gush over Amy and her crew enough. The care they take and attention to safety detail is top notch. And our dogs go bonkers when they see Amy or Brenda out and about, so I know they are given the best times on their walks and visits! We hope to recommend Oh My Sitters to many more doggie parent friends -- we wish we'd found them sooner.
With Amy and crew I know our kitty is well cared for while we are gone! I love the daily reports letting us know how things are going. They even take the time to ensure our hummingbird feeders are full. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could!
Amy and her team are the best pet sitters we have ever worked with. We never have to worry about our pups while out of town, and get photos and written updates with each visit through the app they use (also super convenient.) They are understanding and accommodating of our two rescue dog's needs and quirks, and truly go above and beyond to make sure our dogs are happy while we are gone. I cannot recommend Oh My Dog enough!
We always use OMD to care for our precious pets while away. The team is very professional, caring, and attentive to details. I recommend them highly for both cats and dogs. We always get fabulous notes and photos while we’re away which gives us peace of mind on our trip, and our pets are very well taken care of, including meds as needed and special notes.
Amy has watched our cats twice now and she is awesome! She sends daily updates and pictures. She goes above and beyond for our pets and house and it really helps remove any anxiety we have with leaving our pets at home while we are gone.
Amy from Oh My Dog! (Sitters) made friends with our shy cat in record time. She is personable, professional, and an experienced pet-sitter. I appreciate the peace of mind that comes with someone checking in when we can't be there. Highly recommend -- your pets will be in good hands!
Oh My Dog! took excellent care of my diabetic cat which was such a great relief. Their attention to detail and daily pet updates were awesome. I highly recommend Oh My Dog! and will definitely use their services again.
Beccie was great! She was kind and worked with me on drop off and pick up times because of my non-traditional work schedule. The space she has for cats was fabulous, it was clean and there was no animal smell or dirt anywhere. She made sure my cat was up to date on vaccines and had me fill out paperwork describing her food schedule. I'd absolutely use The Cat's Pajamas again and highly recommend it to anyone who cares about their cat.
I can't say enough good things about Beccie at Cats Pajamas! This was our first time boarding Pistachio here, and it couldn't have been a better experience. Right from the start, Beccie made us feel like family. She greeted us warmly and showed genuine care for Pistachio's well-being. The place itself is spotless and has such a cozy vibe - you can tell Beccie puts her heart into every detail. With Beccie's years of experience, we felt completely at ease leaving Pistachio in her care. Meeting the other cats staying there was a bonus; it felt like a little cat community! What I really appreciated was the lack of pressure. Beccie gave us space to settle in and didn't rush us at all. It was clear she genuinely loves what she does and cares deeply for all the cats she looks after. Beccie, thank you for giving us peace of mind while we were away and for taking such great care of Pistachio. We'll definitely be recommending Cats Pajamas to all our fellow cat lovers! We'll be back!
This is the second time I have used Cats Pajamas. The owner Becky is very pleasant and knowledgeable about cats. The facility is clean and well maintained. If your pet requires meds no problem. Thank you Becky for taking such good care of my pet child.
Beccie the owner is so kind and accommodating, you can definitely trust her to take good care of your cats. The building/facilities have many toys, beds, and other items to enrich your cats. she lets them all out to roam around so they don't feel cooped up. Great experience every time I bring my two cats to Cats Pajamas!
My cat Scooter stayed here for 2 weeks while my husband and I traveled for our wedding/honeymoon. After reading the reviews and speaking with the owner I knew Scooter would be well taken care of. The owner’s friendliness and kindness was consistent in every interaction I had. When picking him up I was given time to give Scooter some love and see the other cats. Scooter seemed very pleased with his stay. The location is cute, calm and quiet. I’d stay here if I could. We will always use The Cat’s Pajamas for our boarding needs.
Amazing place for your cat! I almost wanted to not post so I could keep it a secret, but Beccie and Terry are so fabulous, and your cat deserves to enjoy this place if you need to be gone, that I just had to. Terry took extra effort to build a ventilation system for the cattery and there isn't one whiff of litter boxes in the place. There's a lot of space for the cats to roam, and it's a wonderful environment for your cat! Highly recommend!!
These guys are the best in the state by far...these people are kind and really care about cats. 5 stars. Owners recently had to coordinate with one of my cats vet when my poor baby got sick from an earlier dental operation while I was out of town and cats were boarded at cats pajamas...she got the kitty meds and even tricked my cat into taking them for 3 days:)... we are all healthy now and I will continue using cats pajamas for my 2 kitties :) cats love it there...
Wonderful facility! We used their boarding facility during our move and it was extremely well priced, the owners are super friendly and accommodating and the atmosphere was very calm. We have a kitty who stresses out REALLY bad during boarding and was previously not allowed to return to two other boarding places due to his aggression under stress. They accepted him with open arms and respected his space while he was there. I highly recommend this facility over others in the area due to better accommodations and quieter atmosphere.
I am Rocky and a 10 year old slightly undertall cat. First I want to say Cat’s Pajamas is the place to go when your human goes on vacation. I had lots of sleeping room, and my cubical had lots of fresh air through a carefully made ventilation system, I barely noticed the fine friends around me at the beginning. The human (I hear her name is Becky) cleaned the box three times a day, gave me the pills I needed to keep my food down (got a little gastro issue) and generally loved and cared for me. The best part, big screen TV with tropical fish rolling around around all day and night. Not even pay per view. Definitely getting my own TV when I am home. I am looking forward to going here again next time my humans go away.
Extraordinarily friendly. Well priced. The facility is amazing. My cat stayed here for 3 weeks with no issues. The owner sent updates, as well. I would board my cats here any time.
I moved from out of state and was really hoping to find a great place to bring my dog for boarding and daycare that he would fit into. He LOVES it at Carolyn’s. With a not super social but really high energy dog, Carolyn’s is the perfect place for him and I always trust he will be taken care of and come home calm and tired. What you get for the price is definitely worth it. They have plenty of staff and care for all the pups and make sure they all are grouped together so they get along. Everyone is really nice and you can tell they really care. They post updates during the day which is a cute way to check in on your pup. Everything from our first meet and greet day to extended boarding, I know my dog will be taken care of and enjoy his time. Highly recommend this place.
BEST DOGGY DAYCARE IN TOWN! The space is great and the staff is super friendly. My pup gets very excited every time we drop him off, and fulfilled and exhausted by the time we get home. This truly is an outstanding place for your dog(s) to socialize and get their needed exercise.
We found Carolyn’s K9 Retreat earlier this summer when looking for a doggy daycare and boarding for our sweet six month old Aussiedoodle, Gus. They were very responsive to set up a plan to help Gus get accommodated so we could board him for our vacation in a month. All the staff members are so kind and loving to all the pups! Our Gus had some separation anxiety issues during his first doggy daycare stays and his first overnight stay. The staff was very patience with Gus and able to help him calm down and become habituated to the new environment! Gus was able to have a wonderful stay at Carolyn’s while we were able to enjoy a road trip through Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. I would totally recommend Carolyn’s K9 Retreat for doggy daycare and boarding, especially for dogs who are not fully kennel trained!
This is like Disneyland for dogs! My dog loves this place and feels right at home here! She gets super excited when we arrive. The staff are phenomenal and very attentive. My dog is a smaller dog too and gets shy but the staff has helped her feel comfortable and welcome. She has made great doggy friends and loves staying here for the day or overnight. Your pet is in good hands when going to the Carolyn’s K9 retreat!
Carolyn’s is our pup, Dory’s favorite place!!! She gets to play all day with her friends and everyone is incredible with the dogs!! Such a clean environment as well. Their spaw treatments always leave her smelling and looking her best! We cannot recommend them enough. We are so appreciative of Carolyn’s K9 Retreat!! 🩷 …
I LOVE this place. My pup is 1 month into classes & he LOVES it! I can hardly home him back when we arrive. When I pick him up, he's tuckered out from playing & learning. Bringing him here has helped my pup in solicitation & gives him lots of time to play with other dogs. Best part is seeing the daily pics posted on FB throughout the day while my pup is there. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
My dog isn’t the easiest- Lola jumps all the fences, has separation anxiety and is on medication. I’ve never been able to leave her anywhere! Until Carolyn and her team!!!! Carolyn and her husband own this amazing sanctuary for our dogs! All of the employees are exceptionally caring and attentive. I now feel so comforted that we have found a place to care for our baby!!! They keep me updated as to how she is doing when I am out of town and my heart is happy knowing she is happy there.
Carolyn’s K9 Retreat is doggy Disneyland for our dog! He gets so excited when we pull into their parking lot and doesn’t want to leave when we pick him up! They send pictures and texts and treat him like family! I cannot recommend this place more! Simply one of a kind and THE BEST! Gunner will be going here forever! All their staff treat him like their own. Love this place!!
We are so happy we’ve chosen Carolyn’s K9 Retreat as our local daycare/boarding spot. We appreciate that they require a meet & greet and a full day of daycare prior to boarding to ensure it’s the right fit for everyone. We also love that they’re a no-kennel facility so our boy can lounge on a couch as he would at home. We trust their staff & know Wally is in caring, capable hands when he’s under their care!
Be sure you leave your pup(s) smiling instead of sticking their tongue out at you! Reach out to Carolyn’s K9 retreat for all the daycare, grooming, and boarding needs of your dog. We sure are glad we have!
We absolutely love Emily’s Wood Pack for our two dogs. Our dogs needed some socializing after the pandemic and they were nervous, but they made sure to communicate what days had calmer dogs, and always update with pictures. I would say they are even more affordable with boarding than other locations in the area considering how much love, attention, and space they are given. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. You can tell all the employees love the pets. Honestly amazing!
We are so happy with the care our puppy gets at Emily’s Woof Pack! It’s affordable, high-quality dog care that our pup absolutely loves. He always comes home happily exhausted after his visits, and now he even cries with excitement whenever we drive by the Walgreens nearby. The staff is incredibly professional and friendly, and I love how dog-centric the check-in and check-out process is—it makes everything easy and stress-free. Plus, the location is super convenient for anyone near JBLM, Lakewood, or Steilacoom. Highly recommend Emily’s Woof Pack for your furry family members!
Emily has always been professional, prompt and friendly. She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and supportive of her pet sitting community, providing resources and referrals if she isn’t available or the right fit for your pet. She gives her heart to each dog in her care and will love them like her own while they’re in her home. She is the ONLY person we trust to care for our cats, in our home, when we travel. She sends video updates and pictures so you know your babies are happy. Bring your dogs to Emily, you won’t regret it! Oct 2021: Editing to add that we now have a very shy doodle boy who was exceptionally well cared for during his daycare visit. Emily went above and beyond answering all of my nervous dog mom questions before booking. Upon arrival, Alex and Sierra were patient with Sunny while he got accustomed and they sent several photo pupdates throughout the day. Best of all, Sunny is less nervous with new dogs and people after his ONE day running with the pack. Seriously, bring your dog to Emily’s Woof Pack.
Our Doggo loves her time at Emily’s! She made it super easy to find a day that we could come out and do a trial for a new daycare. Our dog had a great time! And Emily sent us an update on her first day to let us know she’s doing ok. Love that they have outdoor space for the doggos. Will definitely be back!
Emily has been amazing with our fur baby, Diesel. She has sat for him dozens of times over the last few years and he always comes home happy. She is great with text updates when we are out of town. We trust her with the most important thing in our lives. I cannot say enough about how much she cares about dogs and their well being. She is the best!!! Diesel loves his aunt Emily! Thanks so much...
Emily Wolf Pack has been the best decision we ever made for our dog. Our dog went to day care once a week for a few months and he was the happiest. He was always excited they day he was picked up and came home happy and tired. We never had any trouble with the team working there or with our dog while he was taken care. They are very attentive, Professional, flexible and have great communication. I will for sure recommend this place!!
You will not find a better Doggy Day Care experience than EWP. The Pack Leaders engage with the pups continuously during the day and my two come home happy and tired. This team cares about each dog individually - they are a joy to leave my fur kids with.
I am so greatful for my coworker and fellow nurse telling me about Emily's. She brings her Pups and Cat here and she could not have been more spot on for a great daycare for my Archie. He will be 5 this year and we have had our share of not good experiences at 2 other places and then we found Emily's. Professoinal, carring, kind, just the best people. You will have no worries. Just wonderful. Right acroos the street from Key Bank on Steilacoom.
I would definitely recommend Emily's Woof Pack to anyone looking for a daycare or boarding for their pups! We adopted our dog about a year-and-a-half ago and he was quite the handful. He didn't do well at a large daycare facility, and I was nervous to try again and leave him with anybody. Emily was willing to work with him and now he loves going over to her house! I love that she does overnight trials and a thorough screening process to make sure all of the dogs will get along before their first day of daycare. 10/10 would recommend 🥰🐾
Emily is a wonderful pet sitter (and human being!) and I trust her to the moon and back to give my pup excellent care. We had a lovely conversation before giving my dog a trial run at her house to figure out if my rescue dog's personality would fit in with the other dogs in the Pack. With my initial concerns about my dog's nervous and anxious behavior put to rest, I was able to leave her with Emily for 24 hours to test the waters. Emily sent photos and gave updates and determined that my dog was ready for a longer stay. Now, I'll leave my dog for her "vacation" with Emily this Christmas while I travel to visit family. <3 Emily came on high recommendation from my rescue, and I'm so glad I heard about her!
The BEST boarding and spa in the area. Our Poppy can be a bit sensitive and have GI issues with boarding, but we finally got into here and she had no problems. On top of that she seems so happy and we love how the groomers made her look cuter than usual. The employees were so nice and attentive, even as I observed with other dogs, they truly love pets. The daily reports and pictures were so important when it came to my own nerves. I can't imagine a better place to board or groom our precious Poppy.
I don't trust anyone else with my boy Grizzly. The staff at friendly grove goes above and beyond to care for their clients. love your pup, have a trip planned? trust no one else. Friendly, kind, and extremely caring groomers and vet professionals
I have been taking Cash here for over 6 years! The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Maddy, Connor, and Devin are amazing! I would highly recommend Friendly Grove for all your dogs needs!
Friendly Grove did a great job taking care of our cat for a few days before he traveled abroad to meet up with us in Europe. They work closely with Across the Pond pet shipping so they know all the procedures and paperwork required. Friendly Grove has a wonderfully tranquil facility and I'm sure they will care for your pet just as well as they did ours.
I have been coming here for years and I love the customer service and fun monthly theme parties. This includes a variety of theme birthday/moving away parties! In addition to enriched daycare, Friendly Grove offers boarding and grooming. Below is a picture of my dogs in their theme birthday party and their favorite staff Madison.
They are really an awesome facility. The staff is awesome and does excellent grooming on my dogs. The facility is huge and has the ability to groom and board and the grounds are huge and beautiful! Highly recommend them.
Our canine friend enjoys his time at Friendly Grove. We sure do enjoy the beautiful environment he gets to participate in all day. Over the past year, they've really taken care to ease this puppy into the lifetime of grooming needs he'll face as a Groodle. Lots of breaks, playtime, going potty, and staying hydrated. They've trained him for their own practices and procedures. They will give him the food I provide for his lunch. They take the time to go over the cut before hand, at the drop off. They are very busy, very well scheduled, and managed quite well. Their price is a fair trade for services rendered under the conditions he enjoys. They commit the time to our hairy friend, and he's always happy to see them. That speaks volumes to his excellent treatment while attending day spa therapy. ;)
I've been going to Friendly Grove Resort for Dogs for the past 18 years. They, the owners, and staff are tremendous, professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and caring. They have taken great care of my fur-babies for all these years.
Fabulous care and grooming for our beautiful golden retriever! Best place ever
We have used Friendly Grove for our dog for the past four years. They have done an exceptional job taking care of Bo. They take great care of her. They contacted us once to let us know she had some stomach issues (most likely something she ate prior to dropping her off) discussed care options and provided treatment. Then they followed up to let us know she was fine so we wouldn't worry during our vacation. Bo enjoys going there and playing with her friends. We are able to enjoy our trips knowing she is being taken good care of.
Outstanding care provided to my fur babies. I've used Home Sweet Home services since I've moved to Olympia (for over 7 years). I have two cats that enjoy her visits. I love getting the text updates and pictures that she sends to keep us up to date on the cats. She does an amazing job and I always know that my babies are in good hands when I am out of town. I much prefer to leave them in their own environment so that they are more comfortable while I am away. Home Sweet Home allows me to be able to to do this and ensures that my pets get the best care possible. I've used Deanna's services several more times since I posted my original review. I am always thrilled with the care she providers. She was supportive of me when I lost one of my fur babies. She's also been great with my new additions who just adore her! I had a death in the family and needed to extend my services which was done easily and quickly. This was very appreciated during this hard time.
Deanna has been our house rabbit and duck sitter (two ducks, in a coop/run) for a couple of years now. She is friendly, reliable, and caring, and she always sends daily text updates, often with a photo. Bonus: Deanna is a good pet photographer, and I send the cutest ones around to our family. Deanna is a great pet sitter!
Deanna Highly recommend! Takes Great care of your pet's and home too! Daily Texts and pictures while you are gone made us feel so comfortable knowing our pet was in wonderful care. Thank you Deanna for all you do!
Deanna is a great pet sitter. She always takes great care of my three cats.
Our cats love her. She even vacuumed! Extremely reasonable and great with our kids.
Julie was GREAT! She kept an eye on our two cats for a few weeks while we were out of the country. She sent regular updates and pictures of our pets, and made sure that they always had enough food, water and a clean litter box. Her rates were very reasonable and we were very happy knowing our cats were in good hands. I 100% recommend!
Julie is THE BEST. We like to go on regular snowboarding trips, road trips, and other adventures and always feel like our two kitties are in good hands while we’re gone. She sends updates, takes care of literally everything (food, water, play time, litter boxes), and even brought our trash bin up from the curb when we were gone for trash day. Plus, our cats warmed up to her right away, which is a whole testimonial in and of itself. Julie’s easy going, super easy to work with, and really just great all around. I can’t recommend her and her services enough!
I highly recommend Tails and Trails. My pets are my kids, so it's important I have a reliable sitter I can trust. Years ago, Julie made a great first impression and I have consistently been happy with her service ever since. I am out of town several times a year and I don't worry. I know my pets will be well cared for and my instructions followed.
Julie with Tails and Trails is amazing! She is fabulous at her job and loves all animals that she cares for. She currently does drop-ins for our puppy, Spud while we are gone for work during the week and he adores her. She is flexible, dependable, and we fully trust her with our pup. We can't recommend her enough!
I have used Tails and Trails for several years. Julie is that perfect blend of professionalism and true animal lover. Leaving my two aging little dogs alone all day was not an option and finding someone I could trust with my dogs and coming into my home was a great relief. Julie has always been dependable and flexible. I feel very fortunate to have such a well trained and caring person watching my dogs while I am at work.
Julie Norton at Tails and Trails LLC is an amazing dog walker and pet sitter. She does walks, drop-ins, and vacation services. She has a background as a vet-tech and this is her full-time job. I trust her totally and my dog loves her!
Absolutely reliable and passionate about her job. This is the exact type of person I trust in my home with my fur child.
We have an older cat and I am so grateful we found Beth! I worried about leaving her, but not any more. While we are gone, we look forward to the daily emails and sometimes a photo of our sweet kitty. Beth takes such good care of her!!! When we got home this time, I was thinking how wonderful it was that our cat has someone who cares for her as much as we do. Then it dawned on me. That's the name of her business "Just Like My Own Pet Care".
You are one of the best pet sitters I’ve ever met. I would highly recommend that people meet you before choosing a sitter because you set the bar so high! You’re professional, gentle, playful, loving. You don't just go through the motions. You're clearly focused on each individual having the best experience possible. Your experience and sensitivity to my cats' special health needs and shyness is a great comfort to me. I’m certain that you can distinguish between things that are possible symptoms that are nothing to worry about vs things to chat with the vet about vs critical care needs. I must have that confidence in anyone caring for my cats. That's why YOU are IT for us!
Beth has been a terrific sitter for my cat Jipsee who looks forward to playtime with her. She was able to extend her visits last minute during a recent hospital stay that kept me admitted for three additional days. I am very grateful and would highly recommend her for anyone needing her services.
Beth has been so great for our cats and chickens! I love getting updates on how our pets are doing while we travel, and we always know they are well taken care of. Plus she's very responsive when we reach out with questions or scheduling our time away.
Beth is a conscientious and caring cat sitter, I recommend her to my friends without hesitation. I had a bad experience in the past with a sitter who was dishonest and did not give my cats the attention they needed. Finding Beth was such a relief! Don't take chances, go with a sitter you can trust.
Hi Beth. It is a shame that we will be moving to Tacoma at the end of December because you have taken such great care of our cat Bingo since last year. You are the best pet sitter we have ever had by far, heads and tails above the rest-no pun intended of course! Good luck in your future endeavors-please free to use my name if you ever need a reference.
We love Beth!! Always a happy guy when we get home, and just enough contact while we're gone. Thanks, Beth!
