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.

Theresa is a reliable and experienced pet sitter in addition to being great at keeping house! She was very accommodating in meeting me & the dogs in advance of our sit, which proved she is a true pet person: attentive to my dogs and eager to know how they should be cared for. She kept me posted while I was away & I returned to a tidy home & happy dogs! I highly recommend her!!
Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
Ray and Lynn were excellent sitters for Moose! They took him out multiple times a day and always played with him. They sent so many pictures and Moose always looked so happy! They were very flexible on when they arrived and left and very organized. The house was left clean and tidy and we found a happy dog when we got home. We would definitely have them back anytime!
Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
We loved Misty!!!! She was absolutely the most perfect baby sitter for our dog and an amazing short term tenant at our house. Not only did she keep the house clean but she even washed everything she used before we got home. We even got a couple gifts from her. She is such a sweet human, kept in contact with us while we were gone and sent videos of the hikes and walks they went on. I would 100% ask her to stay at our house again
Truly The Best House sitters Ever!!! Shannon, Travis and their son were absolutely terrific. I’m so lucky to have had the genuine pleasure of meeting them. Very warm, generous, open and loving people. My dog Wolfie usually barks at men who come in the house and I was a little worried about how he would be with Travis, but I had nothing to fear because within seriously 1 minute from Travis walking in the door, Wolfie was giving him kisses on the lips! I was so happy to receive their updates and photos and videos of my pets while I was away. They really went above and beyond taking terrific care of my many, many furry and feathered friends. When I got home, the place was sparkling clean, all linens laundered and beds made and they even left me sweet little surprises. I would welcome The Exums back with open arms anytime and highly recommend them.
I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend. Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay. It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail. She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures. I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it. I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!
Charlie was again an outstanding sitter for us whilst we were away at a wedding. This is the second time having Charlie and although we have not met face to face we completely trust her with our home and of course our cat, Nala. Charlie left the house spotless which is amazing to come home to after a long day of travelling. She is reliable, good at communicating and trustworthy and we would not hesitate to recommend her enough. Thanks again Charlie, we hope you come back again and there might even be a dog next time😁
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.

Mini had her 1st boarding experience in her 13 years. She was treated like the princess she is with her own room, plenty of other small dogs to visit with the windowed roo off the lobby. She was groomed ($60) and a very happy girl when
Biggie loves The Grand Paw. He comes weekly for daycare and most recently was boarded for over 2 weeks. The staff know him by name and always greet him with excitement. He comes home exhausted from playing with his friends and always looks forward to returning. Thank you to all the staff for all you do.
Our Sasha loves it here and I feel comfortable sending her. They make sure every dog’s vaccines are up to date, even if coming in for grooming only. They also do a temperament test with the new dogs to test how they behave with others. We have been so happy with the level of detail and care.
Pandemic Up Date-The Grand Paw is doing a pretty good job as they work through the issues associated with the COVID Pandemic. They now pick up you dog from the car, you do not go inside at all. They bring your pet out to you in the evening, so it is more-or-less touchless. They also have both masks and sanitizer out in the parking area so that you can sanitize if you like. Good job. But I miss the little shop and talking to the folks while waiting for our dog, Bailey to drag out the poor lad that has to tear him away from his play date. This is the doggy daycare and boarding place in the East Coachella Valley. It has nice facilities and reasonably good hours. They are not real flexible on times and policies. Not a deal as far as pricing goes but seem to take reasonable care of the pets. They have a little pet gift shop, mostly dog oriented full of overpriced things you can’t live without. The grooming function is not the best or least expensive. Ask about purchasing multiple use packages. Tuesday and Thursday they have pool time for Fido if your dog is so inclined. Separate small and large dog areas. They charge $25 bucks to qualify your dog’s behavior before you can bring him. Have all your shot information ready.
What a wonderful staff. I feel so comfortable and trust them to babysit my four legged family member. When leaving pets behind when circumstances require a helping hand - This is the place!
Our dog spent 5 days a this facility and he was bitten, wounds open when we picked him up. We were not told, until we contacted the facility, and replied with a typical template to respond to a complaint. Until today not a curtesy response. Disappointed, and furious, above all the rate charged, you will think your pet will be taken care of.
Brian, Ricky, and the rest of the staff are amazing. My wife and I have a 20 year relationship with this business and Brian and Ricky. We can’t say enough good things about the customer service and how they treat our pups. I wish I could give them 10 stars
Great Facility! We went in a week prior to our pup staying there for a tour and a temperament test, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. When we dropped our pup off for her stay she was excited to be there again. She was happy when we picked her up and quickly fell asleep when we got home. The grand paw is reasonably priced and I highly recommend! Thank you Grand paw for taking care of Cocoa!
I was so happy with The Grand Paw and so were my two kittys. They had a comfy room with plenty of time to play and lounge in. Also they posted pictures of my babies for me to see so I could know 5hey were doing well as I missed them. I will definitely board with them again when I need to in the future.
If you have large dogs this is THE place. Our dogs are bigger and they absolutely love it here. There is plenty of space for them to run around. Any staff we’ve ever encountered is always so friendly and seems to truly love being around dogs! It definitely seems like our dogs’ happy place. Our dogs have never been sick after a boarding and they always come home clean and EXHAUSTED! It is worth every penny. We also love just dropping them off for a play day. Swim days are also awesome. They have an in the ground pool and one of our dogs absolutely loves it!
The owner Lori is exceptionally caring with all of her fur babies! When we went on our 7 day vacation we received humorous and heartfelt video and photo updates every single day. In each photo our dachshund was smiling so big all of his teeth were showing! She is organized, professional and wonderful to work with. We are so relieved that there is a local boarder/day care program that only takes in dogs 20lbs and under! Thank you Lori for being a trustworthy person to leave our family members with! I would recommend to anyone!
Lori is AMAZING! She takes care of all dogs like if they were hers, thats how much she cares and loves them. I'm so happy we found Bonzais Bark because my Lucas loves to go on play date and boarding.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Bonzai's doggy daycare!!! Rosie has found lifelong friends and learned how to get along with all kinds of dogs. Lori is amazing and has set up such a well organized place for fun. Rosie has also stayed with her long term and thoroughly enjoyed herself. So glad I found her when we moved to town.
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST DOG SITTING EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD! Seriously... I can't give one complaint. Laurie would message me pictures throughout the day- not a bunch but enough. My dog seemed happy and clean. When I picked him up he was not overheating or thirsty. He didn't rush to me like he needed to he saved. Laurie was responsive to messages, she seems to love dogs and happy with taking them! Her house was clean and smelled great. I mean it's like everything I looked for was done exceptionally well. I will for sure be taking Indy back there!
Lori was absolutely the best person we could have dreamed of to leave our 16 year old miniature Labradoodle Dee Dee with!!! We were in Palm Desert for 12 days and knew we were going to be playing many rounds of golf along with a day trip to Disneyland. We really didn't want to leave Dee Dee in the house we were staying at all alone for 8+ hours a day so my husband did some research ahead of time and found Bonzai's Bark. After reviewing Lori's website, everything LOOKED great, so we arranged for a meet and greet the day before we actually wanted to start leaving Dee Dee with Lori. LOVED her, her backyard and indoors for the pups and her "dog sense" ... she has a total understanding of what they really did need while they were away from their owners ... we felt very comfortable leaving Dee Dee the next day while we played golf. Lori texted us several times, throughout the day, to say Dee Dee was doing fine and even sent pictures! The rest of the trip we continued to use Lori and even had Dee Dee spend the night on the day we drove to Disneyland and back. She was at Lori's a total of 6 times over 12 days ... She did great! Lori is awesome ... we wish we could find someone like her back home here in Federal Way, WA .... thanks again, Lori, for being our dog's best friend!
Lori does an amazing job when watching our furry children. On extended stays, my wife and I can enjoy our time together without having to worry about our boy’s safety or well being. I highly recommend using BonZai’s Bark for a day stay or longer.
Thank you so much Lori, for caring for my precious fur baby. Lori is very professional, kind, loving and my dog was well cared for. She even sent pictures throughout the week letting me know how much fun they were having. BonZai’s Bark should be everyone’s go to place for dog boarding, and or doggy daycare. Thanks again.
I have been bringing my dog to Lori for over a year and can’t say enough great things about her! I travel often and leave my little love with her for quick weekend trips or weeklong stays. He loves it there! Lori is so loving and fun with my dog, and is great at communicating. I get updates on his day and awesome pictures that let me know he is safe and happy. She is so kind, easy going and very flexible. I am always at ease when I leave my boy with her, and I know he loves going to see her. She’s the best! I highly recommend her services.
Lori is amazing! I have been utilizing her service for almost a year and have been super pleased!! I always have peace of mind knowing that my pup is receiving the best care and having fun too! Lori is very good at sending pics which I always look forward to! I highly recommend using her service. You won’t be disappointed!!
Lori is amazing!! I had serious anxiety about leaving my 8 month old puppy, but she took all that away. Tbone spent a week with her while we vacationed. Thanks to Lori's loving care we all had a great time, especially Tbone. He came home one happy healthy pup! She taught him how to interact with other dogs, an invaluable lesson. He will be spending time at Miss Lori's on a regular basis! I dropped him off today for the afternoon and he ran right to her, he couldn't wait to give her kisses!
Debra, of Loving Touch Pet sitting watched by cat while I was out of the country for about a week. She did a good job in keeping me up to date on any issues that arose, and took good care of my pet. She followed my instructions well and I would use her in the future. Debra’s a nice person and easy to work with. You can relax when she cares for your pet.
Loving touch has been taking care of our furry family for over ten years, during countless road trips and family vacations, etc… It is so comforting to know that when we are away, our pets are safe at home and being well cared for. Thank you Debey and crew, we love you for loving our pets!
We have used Debra several times and we couldn’t be happier. Debra goes above and beyond with updates and photos while we’re away. We highly recommend her service . Amy Q
Can't speak highly enough about Debra and her service. I have 2 cats and she and the kitties have become great friends over the last 4 years. Debra has always given me peace of mind when having to leave them for a trip.
I have used Loving Touch Pet Sitting since I relocated to LaQuinta 3 years ago. Debra has been a lifesaver and is pivotal in helping us care for our elderly pup. Her prices are fair, her flexibility is beyond amazing and the love she gives out little one is precious. Literally we would be lost without her!
We love Debi and her team and so do our two kitties. She has great credentials and has never disappointed us in any way. We unconditionally recommend her. We trust her!
Hands down the best doggy daycare in the valley. I love this place. The staff are always so professional and super friendly. You can tell everyone who works there truly enjoys it. They take such great care of all the dogs. I love the structure and giving the dogs a safe place to play and socialize. It’s also fun to be able to check them out on the pupcams. I always have a piece of mind knowing that I have a safe place to bring my dog whether it’s for daycare or boarding. I highly recommend them. They also have great training programs that will teach you to better understand your dogs needs and give you the confidence to be a pack leader.
Village pup has been a savior of a place for our sweet Archie. They show so much love and concern for their animals and are a very efficient and well run organization. Few places in the desert do this so well. Staff has all been very friendly and create a very familial atmosphere. We take our dog here for both grooming and daycare, he absolutely loves it here and so do we.
It makes me very disappointed to even write this review, But we made Village Pup in LA Quinta our main spot for any dog grooming needs until this last visit we will never visit again and heres the major reason why. First off I originally scheduled a full grooming and when I got there they said I was scheduled for a best bath which I didn't do. Me not wanting to reschedule another three weeks ahead I asked if they can still do the full grooming I originally asked for. To me, they seemed bothered that I even asked that and were trying to talk me out of it. My dog grows a lot of hair so I wanted to do a trim and a deshed of his first layer of his coat. The groomer who also has her own Pyrenees seemed very bothered and annoyed that I wanted to do the full grooming because it would interfere with her break. She comes out and is also trying to talk me out of the grooming and just to do the best bath, I stayed persistent and insisted that they do the full grooming my dog needed it. After some time they agreed but were really annoyed. The groomer noticed we had tried to give him a trim ourselves and said she would try to even it out to which I agreed and said that that would be great. A couple hours later I pick him up and was completely utterly shocked, instead of trimming him they completely shaved him and charged me almost $200 for it. I shouldn't of payed for it but I did and I even TIPPED THE GROOMER WHO RUINED MY DOGS BEAUTIFUL COAT. I will never use this establishment again for the way they treated me and my dog. My dog will never have the same coat again because of the groomer who took her bad day/frustrations out on my dog. Ever since ive brought him home from his "grooming" he hasnt been playful he just sleeps and looks sad like something valuable has been taken from him. If you take your dog here be cautious because they might do it to you too and double charge you both the best bath and the full groom. IF I COULD GIVE ZERO STARS I WOULD 100 PERCENT!!!!!! Here are some before and afters of my dog. Go at your own risk.
Barklee has been going since he was able to have his supervised play time- he asks me to go - barking and getting his leash until I take him. He sits upright and knows the route he starts crying as we turn the corner as he know he is going and just gets soo excited. I only wish my kids would have acted this way. Would of made life easier for a working mom🤪🤪🙃 u won’t regret it! And know some dogs r just not up for daycare and that’s ok too😘
I've been taking my dogs here for years and love it! Dog safety 5 🌟 Friendly environment 5 🌟 Grooming 5 🌟 Training 5 🌟 Honestly, I've not seen any other dog daycare/boarding place that offers as much as the pup. The staff are so kind and love each pup that walks through the doors as their own. They do their best to work as a team to make a fun-filled day for the pack.
2 Very Happy pups. This was our first time here for grooming. The staff treated it just like I was leaving my child for daycare. Very thorough with consents and questionnaires. The staff is so friendly and you can tell they all genuinely love the pups and their job. My babies were nervous it being their first time here but when I picked them up I could tell they were treated well and they left very happy 🤍. I would give more than 5 stars if it were an option. I highly recommend Village Pup!!!
Since they don’t make it public knowledge on the website, they don’t board dogs who aren’t already part of their day care crew. If you’re from out of town or you don’t want to spend extra cash on day care, don’t bother. Doesn’t affect me, but they also turn away any pit/mastiff breeds or mixes regardless of temperament.
I LOVE this place because my fur son does. I know he loves it because I get to check in on him on the cameras throughout the day and can see him having a great time. The staff is super friendly and it's always a pleasure interacting with them. Excellent customer service and a safe, fun environment for my pup to socialize. What more could you want?!
Having people you don't know care for your animal is always a nerve wracking experience. This is not the case with everyone at Village Pup. They take the absolute best care of your dog(s). I recently had him bathed and my gosh, did he come back looking as handsome as ever! I love dropping him off there for a day away (he loves it too! I can't keep him out of the pool!)
I'm so anxious to get our pup in there. These people are just wonderful. They gave our girl a chance without us to interact with other pups and she wasn't happy. She just had too much separation anxiety. I really appreciate the fact that they want to make sure our baby girl is comfortable more than getting money. We will be continuing her socialization and we will take her back. I think this facility is absolutely fantastic! It was so welcoming and incredibly CLEAN. Great facility that I am sure I will be part of for years to come.
Barkingham Pet Hotel is the best place for grooming my Yorkie Terrier Charlie Terrones loves it here, Jacqueline Fields is a top notch groomer Charlie and I highly recommend. All the employees are cheerful and gentle with my little dog he fills safe and treated with care when here. I drive 15 miles and worth every mile. Thank you, for so kind to my pet.
I boarded my German Shepherd for 2 nights. I checked on him several times via phone during his stay. They said he was fine just being a little picky about eating. When I picked him up he was so sick I had to take him to the vet that day. Vomiting continuously, diarrhea, very low energy. I will NEVER take or recommend Barkingham "luxury" pet hotel nor use their services again. It took him over 2 weeks to recover.
Our Min Pin/Chihuahua mix loves Barkingham Pet Hotel! And we love it too. Our Autumn gets the best care and lots of time to run around and play time with other dogs her size. I also am very impressed with the security of facility. I don't have to worry about Autumn getting loose and running away.
I was so nervous about leaving my little boy for boarding. Being that he’s never stayed overnight anywhere because he suffers form separation anxiety. But I have to say he had a wonderful time, he played and got lots of love and cuddles. Sabrina sent me updates with cute photos of how he was doing. I so appreciate that she did that, it made me feel so much better about leaving him in their care. I would 100% recommend them for boarding. Thank you everyone for taking such excellent care of Hershey and a special thanks to Sabrina who has always been so kind and sending updates.
Brian and Bella have always done very well boarding with Barkingham Palace… Brian’s tenure started when he was rescued by a local organization and was being socialized in preparation for being adopted. Kudos to Barkingham for the service they provide to numerous animals here in the Coachella Valley! 💖🐩🐕 …
We used to love this place, but had a bad experience where a groomer actually clipped the end of our Yorkie’s ear off then tried to arrange the fur so it wouldn’t show. She said she “nicked” it. This was 2 years ago and we’ve never been back. Had another bad experience where their groomer was late for work and they rescheduled us, then when we showed up at the new time they tried to say we were late. Sorry. Bad consumer service and care.
I can’t say enough about Barkingham. I’ve been using them for about 10 years. And always have had a great experience. My dogs can’t wait to get to go inside. And they are always greeted with kisses. And all the incredible people that work there.
My two dogs loved this place. It was so beautiful and clean. The background of the mountains behind them. It’s like dogs playing in paradise! My dogs were running in and When I pick them up they were very happy. The staff was so nice there, i highly recommended Barkingham pet hotel in Palm Springs! When we go back we will definitely bring them every day there. A plus!
I don’t live in the area but I will make the drive to drop off my precious Nyla cause she can’t just go anywhere and she has to feel comfortable with the place. I love that her room had a camera so I can watch her.
We boarded our Maltese here in the past and no issues. He is 12 years old now and they informed us that they will not board him any longer as he is a "senior dog"'. This is an amazingly myopic and mean spirited policy that does not take into account the varying aging process for different breeds, not to mention large versus small breeds and the health of the dog itself. Given what they charge, this is kind of obnoxious and arrogant.
Great place to have to drop off your dog for the day. You have to drop off by 11 am or you cannot which it sometimes cumbersome. Half day is $28 for under 6 hours. My dog is not the happiest here due to the room is full of dogs and she is not comfortable like that. My dog just walks around with the staff. They have an awesome set up of a Pup can that you can open the app and see your pup. What a blessing;) to see your dog even if you know she’s a little stressed but safe. But sometimes I need to do things like doctors appointments and need a place for her to be safe. The staff are great and seem to love the doggies.
WOW! I have nothing but positive things to say about this company. Staff, so nice friendly and informative. Pricing is very affordable. They provide the perfect solution for my puppy when I need to take my special needs kids on trips. AND most important my dog loves it there!
A friend of mine suggested I bring my rescue here to help socialize him. He was scared or wary of everyone. It took time and while there is no official training they took special care to help meet his needs. The staff are all wonderful with the animals. Going in to see my boy love on Mandy and the other staff members makes me so happy that he can socialize now with both animals and humans. The staff are so great and so caring your dog is in the best hands possible. Tammy runs a wonderful business and I feel that their attention to me is as wonderful as their caring for the animals. I honestly could not say enough about everyone. I should also mention that the environment is impeccably clean. They have an indoor and outdoor area but are weather conscious so when temps are to high they shut that part down and bring them all into the air conditioning. They do not cage the dogs who are boarding but let them sleep where they want to in their sleep room and staff is there with them all night. Even the grooming is good and they pay special attention to the dog and owners needs. I forgot to mention that they plan fun seasonal events for the dogs and you can peak in on them during the day online with their pup cams. Now my boy has a girlfriend and best play pal. Never thought I would ever see that happen but because of village pup my boy is a happy normal pup.
Best doggy daycare/boarding facility ever!! This is my first time away from my puppy for a long period of time and I just received a check in text with pictures about how my dog is doing! Brought me tears of joy to know that he is being loved and taken care of! Best place ever!! Highly recommend! Thank you Auntie Ashley for taking care of my baby!
Excellent Daycare and boarding for dogs. Great owners. Terrific caring staff. Reliable every time.
My two girls, Bella and Annie love daycare and boarding at the Village Pup in Palm Desert. Great caring staff and lots of furry friends.
Our dog loves it there. It's one of the few places she's been and didn't try to follow us out of the door when we leave. It's nice to look at the pup cam and see her playing with other dogs and people. I highly recommend The Village Pup.
My dog loves going to Village Pup. It is clean, the staff is caring and my dog is safe. In summer they have cooling areas. Been taking my dog there for 2 years
Wouldn’t trust anyone else with my fur babies! Great staff that obviously adore our pups!! It’s hard enough to leave them but I get a lot of comfort that they are with “family”.
Great in every aspect from accommodations to the people who all love dogs. Our golden retriever is very social and absolutely enjoys her stays here. I can’t say enough about the entire staff as they have been so helpful, provide fantastic communication, and genuinely take an interest in your pup to get to know all about them and what they enjoy.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Fetch!!!!!! LOVE Kathleen!!!! we travel between San Diego and Palm Springs a couple times a month. We have a terrier mix and a (freak) labordoodle. Very demanding dog to care for. If you own one then you know what I mean. Put it this way......If the color of the dog food is off...the dog will loose all its hair from stress! haha maybe not that bad but both my dogs love Kathleen. I have found Fetch has gone above and beyond in every way possible. No reason to look elsewhere. Thank You and keep up the good work.
Fetch! is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! I have loved working with Kathleen and her team (and felt this way since the very first email response I received, just minutes after sending an intro message) for the past few months. 100% professional, and a truly dedicated and caring experience from start to finish of each visit. Not only do I trust the Fetch! team with caring for my fur babies like they're their own, I have the added bonus of feeling like my home is well-cared for. Bringing in the mail, watering plants, making sure all doors and windows are locked; this is just the tip of the iceberg of what this team does in their commitment to excellent client service. I receive consistent texts confirming visits, and the photos and personalized videos of my pets are not only adorable, but totally put my mind at ease when I'm far away from them. It's as though Kathleen and her team can read my mind, and know just how to calm my fears about leaving my pets at home. I tried other pet-care services in the Coachella Valley, and simply wasn't satisfied with the quality of the care my animals and my home received. With Fetch!, my expectations are exceeded every single time I hire them. I gladly and wholeheartedly recommend Fetch!
Fetch! Pet Care of Palm Desert is perfect in every way. If you want the best for your pet and your peace of mind, please contact Kathleen, owner of Fetch! in Palm Desert. Her professionalism is awesome; her knowledge of pets is complete; her outlook is compassionate; she is well-organized and perfectly reliable. She will have your pet's best interests to heart and will provide outstanding care. Your pet will love the time with Fetch! and will come back to you balanced and attentive. You will be comfortable knowing your pet is receiving quality care in every way. Our family and puppy Sophia love Kathleen, Hanna and Ziggy! They are simply the best!!! Highly recommended.
I recently moved to Palm Desert and travel quite a bit for work. When I reached out to Kathleen I immediately knew from our phone call that my two cats would be in good hands! Kathleen and Kyla are professional, thorough, flexible, compassionate and really focus on the details to make sure my cats and I are comfortable while traveling. Their communication before, during and after is wonderful. Text messages and pictures are sent, which really helps make my travel less stressful knowing my cats are being well taken care of. Thank you Fetch! Pet Care team for being so good to my girls!
I was very nervous to use a pet sitting company that I've never used before but Fetch was a wonderful surprise!!! Spoke w/Kathleen on the phone...very professional, made an appointment to come to my home & meet the dogs. Casey came with her who actually did the pet sitting. My dogs instantly loved Casey! Fetch not only took great care of my dogs...I now have peace of mind knowing that I can travel out of town and my dogs are happy & safe. Highly recommend 🐾
I love Fetch and it allows me to really enjoy my visits with family & know my pet is in GREAT care. I love the communication, the visit photos & journal, the quality of care and the app! I love Fetch and would recommend the company and employees to all my friends, family & neighbors. Your pets are in great care with Mandy, Kathleen & the Fetch staff!
I am so impressed by this service and level of detail, care, ease of scheduling!! Most importantly its so personalized and I felt completely at ease leaving my puppy in the care of Kathleen and he LOVES her! I'm admittedly a crazy dog mom and I felt completely comfortable from Kathleen's initial visit to meet Jake at my house. This company stands out beyond any other I've used/interviewed. She sends you notes about their walk, pictures, and a map of where they walked. Thank you Kathleen!!
I have used Fetch for about three years now to walk my dog when I go on vacation. Kathleen and her staff are the best. Very reliable! They now have a pet portal so I receive updates when I am on vacation as to how Lea is doing along with a picture! Thank you Kathleen for taking care of our girl!!
Our cat caregiver is Kathleen and she is great. She sends pictures of our boys from every visit so we know she is taking good care of them. They’re quite shy so initially she had to look for them. Eventually they got to know her and now sometimes even come out to say hi on their own. Scheduling is quick and easy. Fetch was recommend to me by a neighbor and I couldn’t be happier with the service.
What an amazing group of animal lovers. Kathleen the owner is uber accommodating and always so nice and professional. My dog walker, Auntie Jane, she’s a member of the family and I would trust nobody more than Jane. Ethel loves Jane as her own buddy. Not to bad to leave your loved pooch with someone you trust so much. I give a 20+ star rating. Above and beyond.
Christina was amazing with our little dog who tends to be very shy with people she doesn't know. Christina went the extra mile to make sure Kona felt safe and comfortable. By the end of the first day Kona felt like she was with family. We are very particular with our dog, but Christina has earned our absolute trust.
I had such an amazing experience with Joshua Tree Pet Resort. From beginning to end, I cannot explain how seamless and convenient the process was! First of all, let’s talk about Christina! She is the sweetest, kindest person. You can tell she truly enjoys her job/life. It’s always so nice to come across good people like that, especially when you are trusting them with your pets. I have two shihpoos, Keto and Kylo. We take them with us everywhere. We plan vacations around them. However, we wanted to take a Hummer Tour around Joshua Tree - this meant our doggies couldn’t go with us. Only a week before our trip, I had to figure out a daycare thing for the dogs. I came across Joshua Tree Pet Resort and gave them a ring! Christina answered. She patiently explained the pricing and process to me and answered all my questions. She also gave impeccable directions - very detailed. I was confident in getting to her place because of how she explained everything so well and because of the overall experience I had with her over the phone and in simply viewing her website! Once we arrived to her place, another couple was picking up their dog and we were there to drop off. She has designated times for human interaction so that she can focus on our pets during the other times. We dropped them off and all was well. We came back that same day and there were no issues. Again, everything was so easy, convenient, and smooth! I can’t wait to use her services again!!! We loved visiting Joshua Tree so we know we will definitely come back. Next time, our goal is to have the dogs stay overnight at Christina’s! We definitely trust her. I can’t say enough about this place. Experiences matter nowadays and this was definitely top-notch!
I have a 4 month old corgi that I dropped off to stay with Christina for one night/ 2 full days and my goodness my puppy had a great time. Christina was quick to respond and sent us updates with pictures/videos every few hours. She was extremely kind and you could tell her and her family are huge dog lovers. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our fur friend for the night while we enjoyed the park for the weekend. He was definitely in good hands.
Christina and JT pet resort are amazing. She always goes above and beyond to ensure your pup is well taken care of while away. She will be sure to send pictures of your dogs stay and update you regularly with how they are doing. Our dog absolutely loves going to JT pet resort is eager to see Christina. She really does treat your dog as if it was her own.
Joshua Tree Resort is awesome! They took our puppy for two days so we could enjoy the National Park. Daisy was happy - and exhausted - from her fun day playing with the other dogs. We appreciated the kind care they provided and for keeping Daisy safe in the hot weather! Best decision we made!
I can't say enough positive things about this place!! I have a pup who can be a bit nervous in new places. Christina completely understood and offered to do a meet and greet before the official stay -- it went great! My dog was so excited to go back there for a 3 night stay where she made lots of friends! Christina was considerate with making sure to maintain our dogs schedule/daily habits and included her in all activities throughout the day. I appreciate the VIP package offered as it allowed my dog to get the feeling of being in a home away from home. Christina is great at communicating and was open to me reaching out to check in, sharing pictures and videos when she had time. It is very clear that being with animals is Christina's passion. We will ABSOLUTELY be using her services again! A quick pic that was sent to us during her stay there, having the time of her life!
We were in need of a last minute dog sitter during our short visit to Joshua Tree National Park. I came across their info, not sure if they would be able to accommodate us on such short notice and to our delight, Christina was able to take my senior dachshund. She and her family treated my dog like their own, giving her extra attention due to her senior needs. I felt so comfortable dropping her off, which is conveniently located on the same road to one of the park entrances. I am so glad I stumbled across their info and took a chance on giving them a call less than a day before I needed their services. We were able to enjoy more of the park, which has very limited dog friendly access. And, my dog was given lots of TLC!
This place and the owner (Christina) are awesome!! We needed a place to bring our lil pup a few times a week so that he could play with other dogs and get some of that energy out. After LOTS of research, I found the perfect environment - it was EXACTLY what I was looking for. I wanted a home away from home for my lil guy and they were able to provide this. I LOVE this place SO SO much and I'm so thankful that we have this amazing pet resort in Joshua Tree!!
A very good place for daycare and boarding! It was really easy to book the day with Christina. She took great care of our dog Moka while we were hiking in the park. They have a great place with a big yard for dogs. She sent us pictures of the day. We recommend!
My cockatiel Piper had a wonderful stay. Christina was extremely kind and responsive. She is obviously a true animal lover. My pet was relaxed in her care. This is truly a wonderful service.
If you are looking for somewhere to bring your fur baby STOP! Look no further! Kamp Kelly is a doggie paradise and Kelly is a dream! We were going out of town for a couple of days and were stressed about where to leave our little guy, Simba. My husband found Kamp Kelly on Google and the reviews truly speak for themselves. I called Kelly and we had a short chat about the itinerary of our trip and a little bit about Simba, then we made a date to do an in person meet up at Kamp. Simba did really well and I knew I was going to have zero issues leaving him with her. Kelly sent me pictures everyday of the little things Simba was doing throughout his stay. My kids really loved that! She has so many areas where the dogs can lay out in the sun or in the house. Little doggie pools to cool off in this desert heat. It’s truly their own little resort! Kelly has great communication and keeps in contact with you even before you drop off just to make sure you are still on for the dates you spoke of. Overall we had the best experience and when the next time comes that we need to go out of town, I will definitely be calling Kelly to watch over our boy! Thank you again for everything, Kelly! You’re a gem!
I recently left my dog, Coco, at Kamp Kelly while I traveled outside the US to meet my parents for a few weeks. Kelly, who runs the Kamp, was incredibly friendly, cordial, and professional. She sent me daily pictures of Coco, which kept me at ease, knowing my furry friend was happy and well cared for. Kamp Kelly has ample space, and it was a delight to see Coco posing in a new nook every day. Coco had a fantastic time, made some new friends, and made unforgettable memories. I will use Kamp Kelly again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a safe and beautiful place to leave their dog. Kelly’s attention to detail and genuine care for pets is truly commendable!
We have been leaving our dog (Roo) for stays at Kamp Kelly for the last 3 years and feel very fortunate to be able to do so. Kelly is a crazy dog-lover who has effectively given over and converted her home into a boutique dog hotel with multiple indoor and outdoor spaces that the dogs can explore and play freely, along with a bunch of comfy beds for when they’re exhausted from a long day chasing each other. She’s constantly updating and upgrading to maintain and improve the spaces. Kelly seems to be quite discriminating about the dogs she’ll accept - insisting that the pack comprise of compatible dogs - in terms of both size and temperament. When we arrive at KK, Roo jumps up to affectionately greet Kelly and then runs straight in to meet the other dogs without looking back. We get frequent texts with pix of the dogs playing and sleeping which is comforting (all the attached pix came from Kelly). The most gratifying thing to see is our little darling dog visibly torn between coming home again with us and staying with Kelly. If I was a dog - I’d insist on staying at KK’s boutique resort…..
We were thrilled with the care and treatment our dog, Winston, received during his visit to KampKelly. Kelly’s business was set up in her home and yard with several areas where the dogs could freely go. While we were gone, we received many photos to relieve our separation anxiety. He loved this space so much, that when we returned, he was in no rush leave! Thanks, Kelly! John and Peggy Semrad
My dogs get excited to go to Kamp Kelly! For them it’s like an extended stay at a dog park. They get to interact w other dogs of similar size and good temperament. And Kelly herself makes sure they have a great time… acting herself as the pack leader. The dogs love and respond well to that interaction. The facility is truly dog heaven! So much to do! So much fun for them. Kelly designed it from a dog’s perspective. That’s why they get excited to go here. No fear! Just excitement. They even get to pick their own cozy place to sleep at night. It’s given me my life back… the ability to travel a bit with peace of mind! I care so much for my two babies that it was otherwise hard to leave them anywhere. Thank you Kelly for that! And for taking such good care of my best friends. Kamp Kelly is dog paradise!
I just returned from an 8 day vacation out of the country and this is the 2nd time I have used Kamp Kelly. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a safe, non caged place for your fur baby. Her compound is all made for dogs, very clean, little paths, play areas, lots of dog beds and just a fun pet boarding facility. She sends pictures daily of your pet and I am a paranoid pet owner and can’t imagine leaving him in a cage at a kennel. I can tell my dog had a great time when I picked him up. Thank you Kelly for making me have piece of mind while on vacation and I will only use her in the future.
Kelly is great! She took care of my dog, Finn for an entire week and he had a blast. Kamp Kelly’s is a little dog resort! Great rate too! Highly recommend!
Kelly and Kamp Kelly saved our trip! Family took a last minute trip from LA area to Palm Springs. On the 2.5 hour drive we were 20 minutes away from arriving at our hotel when we discovered we booked the one hotel option that didn’t allow pets. (We were only looking at hotels that allowed pets but somehow decided on JW Marriott, which wasn’t part of our list, last second and didn’t check the pet policy 😬) Started searching for pet boarding and Kamp Kelly came up first. 9pm on a Saturday night we gave her a call and she answered! Said we could bring DJ first thing in the morning. Brought DJ the next morning and he relaxed instantly. DJ is normally clingy and always has his defenses up. He never tried to come back to me or beg to be carried, which he always does when he is someplace unfamiliar. (We had to sneak him into our hotel room for the night and he kept trying to leave the whole night. He couldn’t get settled so leaving him alone there would never have worked.) I knew then he would be okay at Kamp Kelly which made the trip great for us knowing that he was in good hands. Kelly kept us updated the whole time via text message and Instagram photos. We were able to share Kamp Kelly’s Instagram page with some family members and they got to see what a great time DJ was having also. We will use Kamp Kelly from now on. Her love for dogs shines through. As much as we love DJ with us he clearly had a great getaway trip as well. Instead of being in a hotel room alone while we hung at the hotel pool, he got to lounge at Kamp Kelly’s pool with Kelly and his new canine friends. Thank you Kelly for taking such good care of DJ!
Our pup had a great staycation at Kamp Kelly. Kelly was easy to book with and sent pictures during his stay. You can tell she really cares for all her "guests". I will book with her again!
Our dog Ellie spent a long weekend here when we were in town for a wedding. Kelly took great care of her and made us feel comfortable sending us pictures throughout the weekend!
Our experience with CV Pets was truly exceptional, thanks to Dianne, who provided outstanding care for our four dogs, including two seniors that required extra attention and love. Her dedication and compassion made our vacation so much more enjoyable, as we could relax knowing our beloved pups were in such capable hands. Upon returning home, we were greeted by happy, healthy dogs, a testament to the wonderful job Dianne did in looking after them.
We have relied on Jennifer, Caren, and the entire team at CV Pets to take care of our two little guys for almost two years now. Whether we are away for a weekend or a long vacation, we always have peace of mind knowing they check in on them. They are reliable, trustworthy, and experienced. And I appreciate the updates after each visit and photos so I know how they are doing.
Janine took wonderful care of my fur baby while i couldn't walk her, training her and coming early in the day to avoid the heat. She was a great friend to my dog and I.
I was very anxious to find someone reliable to take care of my cat Leo while I was out of town, and I am so grateful I found CV Pets! Jennifer and her team were so communicative from day 1, making me feel like they cared about Leo just as much as I did. The daily visit updates with photos just made my day! I am so thankful to have found them, and I truly find myself at ease now when thinking about taking another vacation because I know they will be there help. I highly recommend them to all pet parents in the desert! :)
We have a 17, 7, and 1 year old. And over the years we have had the opportunity to use various teams in support of our pups when we are not at home or traveling. None of them compare to CV Pets through Jennifer and her team. We have been using them for over a year now. They are so attentive and loving to our dogs, but also so very respectful of our home. I believe anyone will be as pleased as we have been. Thank you CV Pets !!!!!
Jen is an amazing person and animal lover. She is not only a wonderful caretaker but also a highly knowledgeable trainer. She goes above and beyond!!! Words that come to mind to describe Jen: devotion, reliability, efficiency, trustworthy. Call her, you won’t regret it.
Update: whenever I travel to the area now I have moved I bring one of my four dogs with me. Since I am traveling for work Jen and her team always are where my beagle daisy goes. Jen is responsible, on time and provide excellent service! Jen has walked my dogs many time’s and has even house sat for them. She is a wonderful reliable and responsible pet caregiver. The dogs are her life and cats as well. It can get hot out here in the desert one day it was 120 degrees she wouldn’t take them out. Instead she used wee wee pads abs gave them extra ice water. And made sure they were cool. I appreciate the extra effort. Recently my fiancé and I travelled from Pennsylvania to visit friends in Coachella Valley. Our dogs Lucy and blackjack stayed with Jen and they were great
Jen & her associates are my go-to folks, we are so lucky to have them taking care of our furry family. We use them for pet sitting services. They come by twice a day promptly, stay for a while, and take great care of our big Mastiff - who can sometimes be a challenge. But her gang has a handle on even our complicated circumstances! We have also used her housesitting services, they left the house immaculately clean. Jen is organized and efficient knowledgeable and on top of it! I’m a veterinarian so I’m pretty picky about who interacts with our dogs, they are awesome!
Jennifer always let me know exactly when she would arrive, took excellent care of my dogs, was very reliable. It was apparent that she truly loves dogs. And the dogs loved here. Got to the point they’d recognize her car pulling up and be ready to run to her. I’d recommend CV Pets anytime!
Jennifer walks our miniature schnauzer three to four times a week. Our dog loves her and Jennifer clearly loves him. She is very trustworthy and she does a great job of letting us know how the walk went. Our dog is 14 and she does a great job of being sensitive to his capabilities. I would highly recommend CV Pets.
