Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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
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
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!

Courtenay
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
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
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.

Hannah
Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.
Ann
This was the 3rd time that Jill sat for us. That says it all but please read our previous reviews. They all stand and Jill is one of the best and most reliable and loving pet sitters we’ve ever had. If you have a chance to have her in your home and caring for your pets, you will be absolutely delighted. We love her.
Chris
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Peggy
Bryan and Dana were the perfect sitters for Cella. We were delighted that they were able to arrive a day early so that we could enjoy dinner with them and get to know one another. We would be honored to have them sit again. On top of their great care they left us a thoughtful friendship gift. zeewoi continues to be the best site ever. Not only do we have great pet sitters for Cella, we also have the opportunity to meet great new friends. Thank you!!
Suzanne
Initially, I was very nervous about finding my very first in-home pet sitter who could provide the level of care and attention our 3 beloved fur-kids required. From the moment Emily and Johnny stepped into our home, I knew they were going to be in good hands. Their gentle demeanor and genuine love for animals instantly put our dogs Gypsy & Johnny at ease. Emily and Johnny took the time to understand our pets’ unique personalities and preferences, ensuring that their every need would be met. During our absence, Emily provided us with regular updates and adorable photos. Their detailed communication gave me peace of mind, knowing that my fur babies were in the best possible hands. Upon our return, we were greeted by a happy and contented gang, who clearly had enjoyed their time with Emily and Johnny. Emily and Johnny are more than just pet sitters; they are true companions to our furry family. Their exceptional care, genuine love for animals, and unwavering dedication have earned them a permanent spot in our hearts. Without hesitation, we give Emily and Johnny a 5-star rating and highly recommend their services to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving caregivers for their beloved pets. THANK YOU Emily and Johnny!!! <3

BriAnna was our first pet sitter and we loved her :). She made every step very simple for us, communication was great, Pastis and Anubis seemed to be very happy with her, and the house was very clean when we came back. We highly recommend BriAnna to take care of your pets and we would love to have her back!
Evelyn & Jeff
Carolina was a fantastic Pet sitter. From the beginning, it was straightforward to communicate with her. She met us before we left our trip and ensured she understood all the house and pet logistics. Luna and Cal were very comfortable with her and were best friends with her fast. She was very affectionate with them, and Luna and Cal loved her and were very happy with her. Carolina was very responsive and sent updates. She was really lovely and easy to communicate with. She was very respectful of our space and very tidy. She even washed the sheets and towels she used even when she didn’t need to. She put a lot of care into caring for Luna and Cal, and they looked very comfortable with her. Having Carolina as a pet sitter made our trip very easy, knowing our pets were cared for so well. We would love to have her back to sit for us again and highly recommend her.

Angie and her husband Joe were a great fit for our house and pet sitting needs! They kept in communication with us before our vacation started, and were able to arrive a little early so we could walk them through how various systems worked and where controls were located. Our dog bonded with Angie very quickly and I think he was hoping she would stay after we returned home :) We got regular updates and pet photos while we were traveling. Although we were out of cell phone range for several days, we never had a doubt that things at home would be just fine while they were there! They were also very flexible and understanding. Due to our flight schedule we arrived home in the middle of the night. Angie was able to feed and walk our dog, clean up and leave in the morning without waking us up! The house was left clean, the garden was thriving and our pup was happy. We are happy, and would be happy to have them back again as sitters anytime.
Jessica
Megan and her partner were INCREDIBLE pet & house sitters during my 5 days away last month. I received consistent communication in the form of updates & photos and I had the true sense that Megan was invested in the wellbeing of my animals and truly enjoyed being with them! My house was CLEANER than I left it (immaculate!) and she left a sweet card thanking us upon our return. Truly the best sitting experience I've had thus far, thank YOU so much!
Kellie
Laura was amazing with communication from the very beginning. She sent updates of photos and videos without even being told or asked to do so. She was watching our cat and treated her like her own. Laura was also very responsive when we were trying to find a sitter for our dates and answered any and all questions we had about her experience with pets and house sitting. I would recommend her to anyone! :) and hope we can have her house sit again for us.

Happy Hounds was wonderful. I just picked up Zoe a little while ago and she seemed very well taken care of. Her caretakers were so good about sending me notes and photos while she was there too. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them.
Our dog loves going to Happy Hounds! They were recommended by our vet and work with our vet, making it easy to get records and vaccinations back and forth. Staff is friendly and dog loving.
My mom and I were so nervous to board our dogs for this first time but happy hounds did such an amazing job making us and our dogs feel comfortable. They even sent daily pictures to update us because we told them we were a little nervous about leaving them! Would highly recommend using them if you have to go out of town and want a reliable place to keep your furbabies.
They take great care of our puppies and are always super nice.
Left my corgi puppy there for the weekend! She seemed well taken care of when we went to pick her up. I believe their prices are very fair as well. Will definitely be using them again!! (:
We love Happy Hounds. Amazing service and they love our fur babies. My pups get so excited when we take them.
Feeling very lucky that we live relatively close to Happy Hounds! Happy Hounds offers runs/kennels and playtime, and for my dog, who does not get along with other dogs, this is one of the few places I have ever felt comfortable leaving him. They send me texts with pictures of his play time, and are very communicative. Use the cell number they have on their website; they respond by both text and voice calls. Overall, I greatly appreciate this business, but the best review I can give is that my dog loses his mind when we pull into the parking lot. “Are you going to miss me??” Not a chance, lady- ball time!
My boys get SUPER EXCITED when they go to their vacation home (Happy Hounds!). I never feel guilty about leaving them when we go out of town because they love it so much. Happy Hounds has an excellent, loving and caring staff. They take photos of my boys enjoying themselves and send them to my phone. I always look forward to receiving them! I would rate Happy Hounds higher than 5 stars if it were possible! We love that place!
Wonderful staff. My two girls were able to board together and the staff took good care of my Beagles medical issue. No worries when you need a sitter for your fur babies. Highly recommend.
Seem like a nice couple did an okay job clipping my dogs nails but they didn't have the tool to smooth them. The place was really junkie.

If you want somewhere that's trustworthy, knowledgeable, and prepared for every situation, that's this kennel. I have been bringing my dog here for years and not only do I feel the utmost confidence in his care, but he comes home happy and tired from a day of playing. I truly cannot say enough about these amazing people. They're my dog's extended family at this point.
I never worry about Dixon when he stays here. Mary, Mike & Miles take such good care of the dogs. We are lucky to have Creekside Kennels in Decatur!
Very friendly staff. Our dogs love coming here. They are always in great hands with Mary, Mike and all the staff. When we pick up our dogs, there is no anxiety with them. Just happy pups🤗🤗🐾🐾 …
Tater is always taken care of so well I never worry when he is there.
Our fur baby goes everyday for daycare. She loves it there. They love each and every dog just like they are their own. We never worry when we travel. We get updates with pictures and videos. I recommend them to everyone. An amazing place with the most amazing owners ❤
The owners and ladies who work here at Creekside are Amazing! They always are there to take care of your dog and our dog McKinley, loves going here a few days week. This is a great place to bring your dog as you know they will be well cared for.
Great kennel! Clean and well maintained. We left our 3 golden doodles for 9 days and they loved it. They where clean and well taken care of. Makes vacations more relaxing to know your pets are in good hands. We have already scheduled with them for our next trip.
Great with dogs. Mine are very happy staying.
Everyone is always very friendly and courteous. We never worry about our boys when we leave them here. Great people who love each dog that comes through as if they were their own. Our dogs always like going here
Amazing!!! My two dogs were in good hands here. They have had such a great time! Highly recommend!!!! If you are looking for a place to board your dogs and you want them to be taken care of by people who care, this is the place to go!

Took our dog for a bath and nail trim. They did a great job. Their prices are very reasonable. We will be back!
The owner is extremely nice and sweet. We had to drop off our two small dogs for a couple of hours. Normally they would charge $20 per dog, but she said she would charge $10 per dog. All we had to do was provide proof of vaccinations and everything. It’s a smaller facility than expected and the inside isn’t very up to date. The owner did say that she just bought it, so I’m sure they didn’t have enough time to renovate. At the time we went it’s cash only because they didn’t have internet yet which is completely fine. Honestly, my only concern is the condition of the kennels. It looked rusted and run down. It was also hot back there on a very hot day, so that can be a bit of a concern.
Great place for boarding dogs and cats for a week or weekend my dogs just love staying there the owners treat them so well they don't want to come home. Lol. They also do bathing and grooming I have been taking my animals there for years prices are very reasonable compared to other groomers in the area. So stop by and check them out I'm sure your animal will be thankful you did.
This is a family owned and operated kennel and dog grooming business. I started taking my dogs here after moving from Michigan to Tennessee. My first time taking my dogs to a groomer close to my home was a bad experience for my dogs. I won't expand on them since they're now out of business. So when I found Country Pet Kennels I was cautious and a little apprehensive. But after I saw how well my dogs were treated, how well they were groomed and how reasonable the bill was, I won't take them anywhere else. We have had four appointments over the last 9 months, and every time I pick the dogs up, they are happy and playful, as if they just visited grandma's house for the day. And the owners always have time to talk about my dogs and anything else that's going on in our neck of the woods. Very friendly people and make me feel as if I have made new friends, which I believe I have.
Always friendly staff, usually have to make appointments. Hours are normally 6a-1p during the week and a short time on Saturday. We have used these good people for years now for their grooming services.
Very happy with them, and more important my dog is very happy with them also.
Took my girl Indiago here and they done an amazing job great people and great service!!
I have used her for many many years. There is no one better. I trust her with my precious dogs even as they are senior dogs now.
The sweetest people you’ll ever meet. They love your dogs like no other kennel in the area. 10/10.
amazing place great people loving and they have no problems with talking to you about your dog they give love and attention to the dogs i had my dog boarded there and when they come home its like they have never left home i love the place and will have my dog boarded there in the future if needed
