honeybee was a great sitter for our 3 animals. She communicated very well throughout the sit. Our flight home was delayed and she was great about being able to cover the extra days. Her connection to the animals was wonderful. We were less organized than intended on her arrival due to some unexpected work issues, and she was great about rolling with the changes (e.g. the closet doors were missing as the painter hadn't finished with them). She used public transport to get to Golden and then drove our car while here. She left a few items behind, and her attention to kitchen cleanliness could be better, but we would definitely have her sit our pets again if the opportunity arises.
Kelly and Pat arrived the evening before I left on my trip so we were able to have a nice visit and get to know each other a bit. They asked many questions about the dogs and the house so that they would feel comfortable with the pet sit. Piper and Zuria were very comfortable with them. They sent pictures from dog walks, kept me informed and promptly notified me when there was one simple issue that they handled very well. I’m not able to speak to the condition of the house on my return because a second sitter came right after Kelly and Pat and before I came home. They spent time with the new sitter so that she would know how to take care of the dogs and negotiated the transfer time. Kelly and Pat are a lovely couple and very interesting to talk with. I feel lucky that they were able to take care of Piper and Zuria and would love to have them back again.
Mary Jessica was a wonderful house and pet sitter for our GIANT dog Mamma Mia. She took extremely good care of our house with it cleaner than we left it upon our return. Our neighbors remarked on all the walks she gave Mamma and Mamma seemed very pleased with the entire experience. Mary Jessica was self sufficient, needing very little instruction outside of our Welcome Guide. She followed everything I wrote and asked how much communication I’d want. I’m very pleased and would both recommend her and love to have her again.
Martin was a very conscientious and thoughtful house sitter who took excellent care of our pets and our home. He was reliable, self-sufficient, and a very good communicator. He clearly enjoys and cares for animals, and our house was spotless when we returned. We recommend him wholeheartedly!
This was my first time using house sitters and Shanen and Ryan were wonderful. She sent me pictures of Calla and game me updates on Calla’s activities. She would be welcome to pet sit for me anytime!
Bard and Kim are amazing house sitters and pet care givers. I would recommend them over and over. I wish I could add numbers to the scale. They would get a 10+. Bard and Kim were super easy to work with, efficient, self-sufficient, and considerate. They took immaculate care of my home; it was definitely cleaner after they left! I would recommend them without hesitation over and over.
Ramona and Brandon were the perfect sitters! They rescued me and were very accommodating with my needs. Ramona's communication with me was A1. We spoke multiple times before she arrived and throughout the sit. She was good at keeping me updated and I was very grateful for that, being so far away. The pets gravitated toward them from the moment they arrived and you could see that all she and Brandon wanted to do was spoil the pets with lots of cuddles. My female pup was in heat and they handled that very well and were able to keep her and my male dog separated. I could only imagine how exhausting that may have been but they didn't complain one bit. Ramona and Brandon had to hand over the sit to another sitter and were kind enough to write out the details and everything they observed to make the transition a seamless one. I must say, it helped tremendously. I'd have them back in a heartbeat to sit for me as they showed that I could trust them, not only to take care of my pets but to respect my home they way they would their own. Thanks again for making my trip away worth it!
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.
Leo and Susi were wonderful pet sitters for our two cats. They were responsive, communicative, and gracious guests, and the I swear the house was cleaner when we got home than we left it. The cats were very contented. Any time we leave we will be checking in with them first. Such a pleasure to work with.
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.

Canine Sleep-over and Audrey is the best! My standard poodle, Ella, has been enjoying both day care and extended sleep- overs for years. Ella enjoys the home setting and playing with the other dogs. I can relax on my vacations knowing Ella is safe and loved by Audrey! Schedule a meet and greet with Audrey- you and your dog will love it ❤️
We have been using Canine Sleep Over for over 20 years. Audrey is absolutely awesome with our dog. We can go away care free knowing that our dog is receiving the best care possible and having a great time. She absolutely lights up with joy as soon as we get there.
We trust Audrey with Bowie our Cockapoo. Bowie is a little shy around other dogs, but Ain’t Misbehaving is a more intimate place for boarding and day care; like a home environment. After a few visits Bowie was excited to see Audrey, and started interacting more with the other dogs
I rarely take the time to write a review, and was apprehensive at first, but Audrey is like the dog whisperer. It’s a wonderfully structured and social environment and my dog, who is quite anxious, did very well. I’ve tried the large commercial “doggie day care” and boarding environment and there’s simply no comparison. Both Henna and I are very happy and will be using Audrey again soon for both day care and boarding in the future.
Our hound Wrigley has an overload of energy, and Ain't Misbehaving is the perfect place for her to socialize and romp with an astounding variety of fuzzy friends! Audrey's great love of dogs is more than evident in the way she priorities their safety and comfort, and the way she's transformed her home to make sure they have the best experience possible. There's nothing more satisfying that seeing Wrigley strain on her leash on the mornings we take her there, anxious to join her buddies at her favorite place in the world--and it is SO easy to see why! We'll be faithful customers as long as we have doggos, and that will be fur-ever. Thanks, Audrey!
I couldn’t board my dog with Audrey at this time but I will in the future. My dog was recently vaccinated and we had to look for a sitter last minute. She has a strict waiting period for vaccinations to keep all dogs safe. Audrey could have easily “made an exception” which would put the other dogs at risk. She did the right thing turning us away and putting her dogs safety first instead of making a quick buck. Rest assured your dogs will be safe with her.
I have been sending my two dogs to Canine Sleepover for about 2 years. They absolutely love going there and playing with the other dogs! Audrey is great with them! They always leave happy and tired!
Molly is a 7 year old frightened rescue dog who has only known my husband and myself for the past 2 years of quarantine. She stayed with Audrey for 4 days and nights and adjusted beautifully. We will be back !!
Great! I can't say enough good things about Audrey and Canine Sleep Over! My 8 year old chihuahua had a blast for the week we went away. For the first time ever with boarding her, she did not give me the stink-eye on the ride home when I picked her up! She truly was happy there, had fun and lots of exercise, but mostly was spoiled rotten and loved by Audrey. She takes wonderful care of all the dogs staying there and runs a tight ship, which gave me peace of mind knowing she was safe while I was away. Audrey sent photos daily and always kept us informed. The dogs all get along and the environment Audrey provides is comfortable and homey, yet the play yards are tons of fun for the guests! I will continue to send my girl for daycare so she can have fun with Audrey and the other dogs in between vacations.❤️
There are so many good things about Ain’t Misbehaving and Audrey! I am a regular repeat customer and my two dogs LOVE going to Audrey’s doggie daycare. I love that they can enjoy the companionship of the other dogs in the comfort of Audrey’s home and huge yard! One of my dogs, Finley, was adopted from a bad situation and therefore was afraid of humans; however Audrey took on this challenge and spent a LOT of time and effort on winning his trust and now he is a more confident dog and I am a more relaxed dog-mom! I feel so comfortable and confident leaving my two pups with Audrey…she is truly a blessing.
Friendly, professional service. Daisy stayed 2 nights and had a wonderful time. No anxiety when she was picked up. She also had a bath and again, no anxiety. The price was great for the service and treatment Daisy received. She also had a special visit from Santa :)
The staff and boarding facility at Golden Paws is absolutely amazing! We’ve been bringing our dog Cinderella here for several years now and she has always enjoyed her stay. They truly take pride and care in keeping your pet safe and cozy. The professionalism and kindness here is incredible! Highly recommend to all pet owners!
I took my dog to Golden Paws for the first time and was so happy with the results. My dog is super nervous and skittish, the team made her feel so comfortable and put me at ease. My dog does not love to get groomed or get her nails trimmed - the team worked with her and didn’t push her to anything that stressed her out. They even gave her a good report card. Their prices were fair and affordable. We’ll definitely be back!
In May of last year, we rescued our first puppy. She turned out to be a very unconfident and anxious little girl. We tried so many different things to help calm her down and fulfill her needs but she still seemed unhappy. We tried to do doggy meet ups but always felt so uncomfortable at the dog park, then we found Golden Paws. We had toured multiple doggy daycares in the area and this one was the cleanest and seemed the most dedicated to making sure your dog had fun and was safe. Our pup started doing clever canines (smaller groups with more mental stimulation) in July and we’ve never looked back. We have loved the report cards we get that tell us all about how she’s doing and now include hilarious pics of her goofy self. Our puppy is now almost a year old and loves her routine which includes a couple hours playing with her favorite people and pups. The entire team at Golden Paws knows both my dogs inside and out, even our shepherd mix who loves humans but is a bit anxious with pups so stays at home! You can tell that every one of them really loves what they do. They are always keeping me posted about her progress and are willing to go the extra mile, like offering to video her grooming experience so we could see how she did. The GP staff makes us feel like a part of the family and we’ve never felt worried about her stay! Our puppy gets fulfillment (which helps her calm down) and we get some peace of mind ❤️. We’re so grateful for Golden Paws.
Well organized and efficient operation. Friendly staff and clean facility. Our pup came back to us happy and seemed to be well cared for. Golden paws furnished a written report card upon check out, which detailed our pups stay. We thought this was a great idea. We will use Golden Paws again.
I never left my dogs and went away on vacation, I was very worried to do it. The resort is so clean! They have great hours and Golden Paws staff is amazing. They took such go care of my fur baby. Every night I looked forward to seeing story time photos. Seeing the photos from enrichment warmed my sad heart. I would not look any further when looking for a Pet resort. Golden Paws is the best!
Mr. Harris Wigglesworth was extremely happy with his stay. The staff were amazing. The facility was very clean. The activity time was plentiful. We are looking forward to Harris’ next stay as is he. See you soon and thanks for taking such great care or our little guy!
I truly believe in you pay for what you get. Price was a little bit higher than others but i did receive far and beyond great quality service. I recently had the pleasure of using Golden Paws Pet resort & Spa, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I first contacted them, their professionalism and care were evident. The facility was clean, well-organized, and welcoming. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that my dog felt comfortable and safe during their stay. The personalized attention and care that staff gave my dog was top-notch care. My dog has addisons disease and they notice he was a little stress out with the noise. Other dogs were a little bit too chatty. They made a decision to move him to more a quieter location without even talking to me. They knew how important it was for him not to be stress and they took action. I highly recommend Golden Paws Pet resort & Spa to any pet owner in need of a reliable and caring boarding facility. They exceeded all my expectations, and I'll definitely be using their services again in the future.
Wonderful family owned business with trained and caring personnel. When visiting my family here in New Jersey from North Carolina, I drove with my dog Buster. My son recommended Golden Paws for a few days of a break while caring for their new puppy. I brought Buster in for an evaluation and was very impressed after taking the tour and seeing the care they take in the preparation for boarding and daycare. Buster had a wonderful stay!
Golden Paws is the best. I wouldn’t trust any other boarding facility with my Frankie. She goes in happy and leaves happy. Everyone there is absolutely wonderful and it gives me peace of mind when I board Frankie. I know she is safe and loved while I am away.
Excellent, clean facilities. Warm and knowledgeable staff who took excellent care of our two dogs. We've never boarded our dogs at a kennel before so I was a bit nervous but Windy Hills did an excellent job and I am so glad to now have a reliable and safe option for our pups when we go away in the future.
We have had three dogs go to Windy Hill and the experience is always positive. The owners and staff are top notch and accommodating every visit. We especially like that everyone is personable and treats all pets like their own. It's tough to find a better kennel around
We need a place to leave our 55lb baby, Shorty. We were scrambling as the kennel she was suppose to go to cancelled due to overbooking. I was so nervous but immediately shorty went right in and was so happy when we picked her up. I can’t say enough great things about windy Hill kennels thank you
We love everyone there. Our pup loves it there, too!
We just moved to the area and a quick search revealed Windy Hill. Since this was the first time for my dog, I was a bit hesitant, especially because my dog is a German Shepherd and not all boarding centers like the breed. I have to say I was pleasantly impressed by looking at the premises and speaking with the owners. They have all sized dogs and every dog coming out looked very happy. They have experience with German shepherds and also have arrangements to purchase additional playtime for your pet. They also have grooming facilities available so I was able to board my dog for the weekend and use their grooming service to pick him up. All showered up and his nails trimmed. The prices are reasonable and the staff is extremely friendly and everybody there seemed very happy and knowledgeable. Most kennels take only cash, it's the same here as well. However, they do accept Zelle as a payment which made it super convenient for me since I don't like to carry cash with me. I would definitely recommend Windy Hill kennels to anyone looking to board their dog.
Highly recommend!! We were so nervous to board our dog for the first time. But when we picked him up we could tell he was taken care of. He was so excited and was so happy! He smelled amazing and looked so clean after being groomed. I will be recommending windy hill to everyone of my family and friends. And we will be using again if we ever need to board him. The place is clean and well kept you walk in and it smells good. You can tell they love what they do and truly care about others pets as their own.
Windy Hills Kennel is amazing! Owners are fantastic. They always take care of my Milo and he loves them. Not only do I take him for boarding when I travel but also for grooming. It’s great to have somewhere local and family owned to take him and develop a relationship with. I wouldn’t take my baby anywhere else. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for boarding and grooming services.
We have boarded our pets here for a few years now, and I’ve been very happy with the service and attention to care they are given. Our dogs always comes home happy, and we always leave happy after paying a fair and reasonable price. This is not the puppy Ritz Carlton, but that’s OK.
I just wanted to say that Windy Hill was so kind to us in a time that was so devastating to us. We had to put our dog Lucky there last week because my mom was very ill and we didn’t have choice but to board him. My mom ended up passing away last Friday and Windy Hill called us and told us that Lucky wasn’t well and we needed to pick him up and I told them the situation and they told us to get there when we can. We got there and they carried Lucky out to my husband and wouldn’t take our money to pay for his stay. Lucky passed away that day. The compassion that Windy Hill showed us was so exceptional and we appreciate how empathetic they were. It will never be forgotten. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
They were very accommodating. I booked room for my cats on a Friday night for drop off Saturday morning and they took me in without question. I wouldn't recommend that, but they very nice about it.
