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.

Claire's performance as a house sitter surpassed all expectations, making her an absolute gem in the world of home and pet care. She demonstrated exceptional courtesy and communicated with remarkable clarity and promptness, keeping me informed every step of the way. Punctuality and reliability are hallmarks of Claire's service. She arrived exactly when promised and was fully prepared to manage all the responsibilities we discussed. Her proactive approach and diligent attention to detail provided immense peace of mind. Not only did Claire take impeccable care of my home, but his affectionate and attentive handling of my beloved pup, Modi, was truly heartwarming. Her updates and thoughtful notes about Modi's well-being were incredibly reassuring, making me feel connected even when I was away. Clair's meticulous care extended beyond the basics. She went above and beyond, ensuring that every aspect of my home was looked after with the utmost respect and consideration. From watering plants to maintaining cleanliness, her efforts were nothing short of extraordinary. I wholeheartedly endorse Claire for anyone seeking a trustworthy and dedicated house sitter. I look forward to having her back and cannot recommend her highly enough. A solid 5-star rating is an understatement for the exceptional service she provides!
Jennifer
Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.
Elizabeth
Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)
Claire
I have nothing but great things to say about Jill! She’s a wonderful sitter and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog and cat in her capable hands while I was out of the country. She was thorough in making sure she knew exactly what each pet needed, had excellent communication, and provided me with daily updates. I came home to a house that was even tidier and more organized than when I left and two very loved pets. I would highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a kind, caring, consistent pet sitter. Thank you so much Jill!!!
Barrett
Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully. Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!

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!

Laura was an exceptional, reliable, and loving sitter for our goldendoodle Scout, and took such good care of our home! Scout was excited to meet Laura immediately when she arrived at our home for this sit, and showered Laura with all the hugs and kisses. Scout has recently been having issues with seizures, so for this sit I was specifically looking for a sitter who had a depth of experience with giving medication and responding calmly in the event of an emergency. It was a big relief to be able to entrust Scout to Laura's capable and kind hands, and it was extra special that Laura's beloved vizsla had shared the same name. Laura is wonderfully easy to communicate and coordinate with, and was thorough in her care of our home. We came back to our garden looking great, house left in even better shape than I left it to Laura, and a very happy Scout! I cannot overstate how much we appreciated Laura's care for Scout and our home, and heartily recommend her as a pet and house sitter. If you're lucky enough to get on Laura's schedule, your pups will be with the most wonderful stand-in dog mom you could have hoped for!
Josepha
Jennifer was great and I would highly recommend her. Right from the start, Jennifer was clear and helpful in her communication, and she was very available to us throughout the stay via messaging. She sent pics of our fur babies regularly - without asking - which always makes us happy when we're away. And the biggest compliment I can give: when we came home, our pets were relaxed and happy, and no hidden cat messes to be found (we've had this happen with previous sitters a lot). I would love to have Jennifer stay at our home again in future.

Amazing experience! Five stars all the way... Nikki was kind enough to watch our two cats Thomas and Toby while were away on our honeymoon. From the very beginning she made us feel comfortable with clear communication and quick replies. Since she was local in Atlanta we got to meet her ahead of time and hand off keys before we left. While we were away she sent pictures of our little buds having fun and being themselves, so we always knew they were ok. She always showed up exactly when she said she would from pickup to dropoff and it was so incredible to know they were in good hands, and we never had to worry. They love being around people so for her to have been able to stay with them and love on them regularly we came home and could immediately tell both Thomas and Toby felt great as they were completely comfortable. Much much different than when we leave even for a few days and have a pet sitter stop by and feed them. She asked all the necessary questions in advance, so she didn't have to email or ask anything while we were away. She even took the time to make sure everything was neat and tidy, prepped the sheets to be changed, and was unbelievably sweet to get us a wedding gift we both love. Nikki we can't thank you enough for taking care of our cats, and we would only be so lucky if you stuck around town! :)

For our first experience with a house sitter, Jim and Julie have set the bar high. We felt totally confident that any issues would be dealt with, fortunately there were none. They were outstanding house and pet sitters whom we would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. They took exceptional care of our house full of pets from 2 large dogs, 3 cats, snake, gecko, fish tank and a koi pond. They provided updates daily, were very easy to communicate with and the house was just as clean as when we left it, with the addition of a nice welcome home gift. We knew our pets were in good hands. Thank you for everything. Melissa and Kyle

They are a little pricey, but very worth it! One of my furbaby's has special needs, and they are very accommodating with her medication. Update 1+ years later: I'm still very satisfied with this facility. They take great care of my special needs dog and my spicy dachshund. For me they are worth the cost. Highly recommend!
I have two puppies and they have a lot of energy. I had brought them to kennels in the area and when we picked them up, they seemed sad and also had A TON of pent up energy. They’d go wild for days afterwards. So I did some research and decided to try the Pampered Pooch. They do require a lot of paperwork from your vet but it’s a good thing to make sure the pups are safe. They also take your dog for a 4 hour temperament test to see if they’re a good fit for the place. (Also a good thing). Seems like a lot of work, however, it’s well worth it. This is the second time I’ve brought them while we are on vacation and they come home exhausted and happy. They get to play with the other dogs for hours everyday so they’re not pent up. The staff is friendly. It’s the best place to bring your pets around the Lancaster/Palmdale area. Thank you Pampered Pooch!
I wish the staff were friendlier. Some times when I call to book an appointment I feel like I’m bothering them and they’re rushing me. It makes me feel off about booking with them. I know my dogs typically leave there happy, so that’s a positive. I just feel anxious ever trying to speak to staff. EDIT: I’ve lowered this review another star because I’m very disappointed in the bathing of my dogs. They charged $68 per dog to literally just bath my dog. No brushing, no nails done, no ear cleaning. I know this as I’m a retired dog groomer and I know my dogs coat and what a fresh bath looks like. For that price that all should definitely be included in the service. It’s also a mandatory service when leaving your dog for more than 3 nights which I understand… but the service itself is the very bare minimum. My dogs also drink a LOT of water when they return home, as if they haven’t drank all day. It’s all odd to me and doesn’t seem right.
Our puppy Laika LOVES it here. Today when I picked her up from daycare, she didn’t want to leave. This girl wants all play all day, and Pampered Pooch delivers! We love the text/picture updates when traveling, and trust that she’s always in good hands. Can’t recommend enough.
A friend recommended and what a clean friendly place it is. Had the dogs(2) nails trimmed. It went quick, quietly-the dogs didn't fuss- and the price was reseasonable. There were people coming in to drop off their dog for an over night stay including instructions for their fur-baby. I asked her about her opinion of this place and WOW was she full of opinions, lol. But, they were ALL great opinions. That made me feel much better about this place.
TL;DR: Negligent to dogs' needs resulting in a potentially dangerous environment combined with poor staff attitudes. I saw the great reviews and had hopes for this place. I set up an evaluation for my dog for daycare and they told me to have all the vaccine records ready for when I arrive. I think the $18 they charge for that is a cash grab, but that's ok. I called ahead of time before I pulled up and asked what the procedure was for me to bring in my dog as he has some leash aggression and I wanted to avoid a full waiting room. The lady that was there didn't answer the question and instead said rather curtly I needed to provide all the records. I explained I was told to email them when I arrived so they could print them then and have them. She said fine and just told me to ring the doorbell. When I arrived, there was a dog in one of the front windows right beside the door that was going nuts, causing my dog to get very agitated. The lady did not address this dog that's freaking out and instead opened the door to let me in. There was yet another dog in a kennel in the lobby who started barking and again started riling up my dog. Again this lady did not seem to care about all this chaos and instead handed me a clipboard and told me in a snarky manner that the email address is written down and I need to fill out all the forms front and back. Since there was no place to go inside to fill these out where my dog would not be reactive, and I couldn't go back outside to the car because the other dog is going nuts in the window, I just said it wouldn't work out and left. My issue is if they care this little about 1) my dog's anxiety during this process and 2) the other dogs that are clearly stressed and freaking out, why would I trust them with my little guy? The bad attitude of the lady that was there was just the cherry on top. First impressions are important, and this place was very disappointing, and potentially dangerous for dogs that need some extra attention.
My challenged rescue dog did very well here. She isn't very well with other little ones but felt comfortable with so many around. The Staff was above and beyond great! Not only did they take care of my Wild girl, but also made the experience smooth with ME. They truly Love what they do and respect every pets human..... They are my only pet boarding in the AV
Ms Cha-Cha's favorite beauty place so much❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
BRING YOUR PUPS HERE FOR A STAY! Wonderful caring staff. Clean, professional, VERY thorough on care (foods, meds, toys, beds, blankets, treats, playtime and type of...). Dedicated. Was visiting friends and wanted to make sure pups away from firework on New Years. The only sort of negative was had to pay for two full days due to holiday. Outside of that? GREAT!
Very pleased with the care and monitoring of my pet! The staff are friendly and ready to answer any fur baby questions. The camera link availability and temperature control was very important to me. I would recommend The Pampered Pooch Hotel for day & overnight stays!

They were great and a blessing.They took my dog at the very last minute.When no one else could or was available they made it possible I was very grateful I'm still grateful for them. Also they have Great options for where you want your dog in or out big or small space. I am so grateful. Thank you Jesus Christ for smith kennels, they took my pup last minute and gave me a good price for 4 days 🤗😇🙂.
Do not bring your dogs here. I hate to say it, because the owners seem nice, but this place is not well taken care of. The smell of urine is prominent upon entering and especially in the “office” which is more like a storage closet. What was most disturbing is that most of their kennels do not have an indoor section for the animals. They say there are “shade” trees, but our poor dog came back with burnt paws after only 1 day there. We had to apply aquaphor on her paw pads. They were so red and burned. Also, we arrived a day early to pick her up only to find that they did not place the blankets we brought for her in her kennel yet! She had been there for over 24 hours and they didn’t take a second to put her blankets in the kennel, nor did they give her any of the bully sticks we brought for her, which should have been 1 per day. Our dog was exhausted and did not have a positive demeanor like she usually does when we bring her back from a kennel stay. She also STUNK of urine and dirt. We had to bathe her immediately upon returning home. We only came here because our other kennel was all booked up. I was very disappointed from my experience with Smith Kennels and will not be bringing my animals back here.
I have used Smith Kennels several times since 2009. The owners live onsite. On a trip in early July we boarded are 3 dogs and a cat. We were worried about the heat and the dogs because of the 110 degree heat which lasted for several days. The dogs were comfortable and had the option of staying inside in the cool portion of the run or going outside. (There are different sized runs for different sized dogs and the kennels are in a tree covered area which provides ample shade.) We knew the cat was on his last leg and his conditioning was worsening and let the owners know that. Smith Kennels called us the day we were headed home and let us know he was not eating and did not want to get up. They stayed open late so we could pick him up and take him home when we arrived back in the area. There rates are very reasonable and they provide great services. I get the feeling this is not so much a business for them, it is their life.
Very nice, polite and professional people. They always make sure customers are happy. We recently dropped off an application to adopt a Miniature Schnauzer and are currently waiting to hear back.
Had to go into the hospital for a knee replacement and needed to kennel my new pup; I was a bit concerned because my pup has only been with me for about 10 months and has a bit of separation anxiety from being abandoned running loose in the desert. The Smiths took great care of my furball, she seemed to be just fine. My expected 4 day stay turned into over 2 weeks as the hospital sent me to a rehab hospital to get my new knee working some before sending me home. I highly recommend Smith Kennels if you need them
I loved it here! Guinness had a great time and the owners are really nice! They let me pick up my dog after hours and are reasonably priced! Thank you Smith kennels!
Clean, friendly, responsible, and great place in Lancaster to board your pets. Trees for shade and knowledge staff. Family business, ran with love, and willing to help animals in need.
THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATH OF MY DOG. They put a 5lb maltese who had just been neutered in a concrete run with no blankets, no food no water and access to the outside portion of the run with chain link fencing with huge gaps. My poor dog vanished within a couple of hours and they were so disorganized with their paperwork I was not even notified until the next day when we went to pick up! For all I know they gave the dog to someone or it was killed on their property and they're covering it up. Either way my sweet little guy is dead I'm sure and their negligence caused it. DO NOT USE THEM!
It's a very nice place. It's been here for many years. The owners are nice they're in their 90s. It seems like they're always full so that is excellent they must be doing something right
Joyce did an amazing job grooming our Pomeranian 😀 …
