Pet Sitters in Rancho Tierra Grande, CA

My Cavapoo Ollie had his very first hair cut/spa day with Michelle and we were thrilled! Michelle is so gentle, caring and knowledgeable and my pup loves her. I would never take him anywhere else. And she not only does an amazing job, she is efficient and Ollie never has to go in a crate and wait to be groomed for hours. She picks him up and drops him off and he is always so excited to see her so I know he is good hands. I have referred numerous dog owners to her since she not only grooms, but dog walks, and pet sits! Michelle is a pro and we love her!!!!

Michelle is amazing! We have two Australian Shepherd dogs. The older one hated getting groomed at the large facilities, but was so much happier with her! They always look so adorable after her stellar grooming skills! Always on time and great with communication! Love the All Starr experiences ❤️

Michelle has groomed our dog Oso several times and she has always done a FANTASTIC job. She’s great about communicating what she is going to do and why and is enthusiastic to help with other pet needs and recommending affordable and effective products. Apart from Oso coming home smelling clean and feeling so, so soft one of my favorite things about Michelle is her flexibility! Truly, you will not go wrong hiring Michelle!

I have been using Michelle to pet sit my precious mini schnauzer, Pearl, and cat, Peanut, for several years. She is very knowledgeable on animals, and gives them tons of love when I'm out of town. She sends me pictures and updates that let me know they are doing well so I can relax and enjoy my vacation. She also takes Pearl for daycare and gives her lots of walks! Very trustworthy!

I just love Michelle! She is always on time, takes her time with Bug (our 4 year old pit bull) and always is very attentive. Her prices are very reasonable and she always has a friendly smile. ALSO... Shes like the post man... rain, snow, sleet or shine= she comes to rescue!

Michelle is the best! She’s friendly and knowledgeable and has helped me with everything from overnight care, to dog walks, to nail trims and more! She’s competitively priced and always makes time for her clients. I wouldn’t use anybody else for my pets.

Absolutely the best dog sitting experience I have ever had. I truly wish more places were as easy and as quality as Signature Paw Spa. We were very lucky for a last minute puppy sitters Josh and Sheadon that took great care of our little girl. They asked all important questions and were very professional. I can tell our little one was well cared for. I also really love that they give you the option for the pet to be dropped off to you! Thanks so much guys!

So my friends and I rarely get days off together. When we did we decided to go to Monterey. We brought our 2 dogs and unfortunately we cant bring them to Aquarium. Last minute I called Signature Paw Spa and luckily they have availability. I dropped my dogs just 15-20 mins after I called them and we all were able to go to the aquarium. They are really nice people and had kept me updated about my babies from time to time and My babies seemed to have enjoyed their time at Tonya's. I definitely recommend them

It was my first time leaving my 5 month old puppy with a pet sitter, and Signature Pet Spa/Tonya was awesome to put both me and my pup at ease. Tonya managed to work me in even though I called the day before I needed a pet sitter. She sent updates and pictures of my puppy enjoying her day, and my pup came back to me happy and well exercised when I picked her up. I definitely will be using Signature Pet Spa again!

Hands down the best dog experience!!!! I’ve used many dog services while traveling and I have to say ginger loved this place the moment she arrived. The owner came out to greet her and I when we arrived, which is a wonderful added bonus compared to some other place I have been to. The property offers a big grassy area for her to run and play, I was thrilled to see Tanya bonded perfectly from the moment ginger arrived. The pick up process was smooth and efficient since I was rushing to get back out of town. I would recommend this place to everyone with a beloved dog.

We boarded our lab with Signature Paw Spa while on a long cruise. This is a remarkable dog boarding company that provides warmth and care. The owner of Signature Paw Spa is an inspiration and a true leader. Under her guidance, she has cultivated a staff that mirrors her values and goes above and beyond to create a nurturing and loving environment for dogs, and their owners. They took the time to understand my dog's needs, preferences, and quirks. The facilities at Signature Paw Spa are top-notch, with immaculate and spacious accommodations designed to provide comfort and security. What truly sets Signature Paw Spa apart is the personal touch that permeates every interaction. We received updates and photos which provided a sense of reassurance and allowed me to stay connected, even when physically apart. Signature Paw Spa is a true gem among dog boarding facilities. From the heartfelt dedication of the owner to the exceptional care provided by the staff, this establishment exceeds expectations at every turn.

We called to get last minute day care for our dog, Gunner, during the US Open. The owner was so accommodating and made our pup feel right at home. If you are traveling to the area from out of town I would highly recommend this place if you are in need of doggie day care!

Signature Paw Spa is a life saver. My dog sitter canceled last minute on me and I was able to get my dog Charlie in at Signature Paw Spa. They sent me lots of pictures and videos of him playing with all his other little friends. Charlie was in their care for 3 days and he had a fabulous time! Thank you Signature Paw spa for saving my trip!

Tonya was so nice and accommodating - we asked for overnight boarding on the weekend with no notice and she was able to take our dog no problem. We got a few updates during his stay and felt very confident that he was getting great care in a wonderful setting. We would absolutely go to signature paw spa again!

Signature Paw Spa is the absolute best pet sitting service in the area.. I know my dog is in wonderful company when I leave him with Signature Paw Spa.. I love how the owner will take pictures and send them to me throughout his time with them.. He always looks so happy and like he is hanging such a blast.. I would most definitely highly recommend Signature Paw Spa for any pet sitting services you need while in the area.. I love them and can't recommend them enough.. Thank you Signature Paw Spa for always taking wonderful care of my sweet Kirby

i highly recommend SPS. Tonya the owner is VERY VERY organized and was very easy to communicate with. The dog sitting part of her business is at a large lovely home in Carmel. Convenient location for Monterey, Carmel and Big Sur. Tonya coordinated everything and was so nice to be flexible to our travel plans.. Decker was given lots attention and came back to us very happy

Melissa was absolutely amazing with our pup Sage. She was able to take her on such short notice for our wedding. She was very thorough and knew lots about Frenchies which made me feel at ease. It was our first time having Sage be puppy sat and have an overnight stay so I had lots of questions and Melissa was so kind and reassuring with all of them. I just knew Sage would be in good hands and love miss Melissa. She sent me cute pics and videos throughout her stay and was very accommodating with her additional pickups/drop offs for Sage’s part in our wedding. I highly recommend Melissa for over night stays and any other services you’d need for your pups, she’s a kind, sweet, caring, and trustworthy Soul.

I can’t say how much Melissa at Pets by the Sea meant to our family to help watch our dog Deiter. He was a very sweet boy but couldn’t be around other dogs - she made sure to take extra care of him and he acted like we were never gone when we got back from our trip. We know he must have been happy and we couldn’t have been happier. She sent us texts and pictures to show how good he was! We highly recommend Melissa and when we get another dog one day, we will ask her for her services again. Top notch!!

What a great experience!! My husband and I wanted to have a nice dinner for our Anniversary and Pets by the sea took wonderful care of our pug while we did so. I felt relaxed and at ease knowing she was in good hands. We were given an update via photo and text and my Mabel came back to us happy as ever!! I’m so grateful for Pets by the Sea. Thank you for helping make our anniversary trip great.

Pets By The Sea provides a wonderful pet care service with convenient pick up and delivery. Bandit and Raider, our 1 year old West Highland Terriers, are FULL of energy. We were so thankful to find Melissa and Jaden and have used them several times on our trips to Carmel. They are professional, reliable, so friendly ... and they give our boys a GREAT workout! Bandit and Raider are big fans, and so are we!

Melissa was awesome!!! I was coming from out of town and needed a pet sitter while I was at a wedding. When I reached out to her she was very quick to respond and very flexible to my needs. She made me feel super comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. I loved that she sent me updates every few hours. I cannot recommend Melissa enough!!! The experience was flawless!!!

INCREDIBLE SERVICE..MY DOG WANTED TO STAY WITH THEM...I WILL DEFINITELY RECCOMEND AND USE PETS BY RHE SEA AGAIN......MAUI BEACH BOYS...JOHN BROWNE

I've been a loyal customer of Dawg Gone It Kennel in Monterey for the past three years, regularly boarding our Labrador, Gracie, there when we travel. Until now, we've always had positive experiences, and Gracie has come back happy. However, this past Wednesday, I left her there for just one night due to an out-of-town event, and the situation was alarming upon her return. When we picked her up, Gracie could hardly walk. Her right thigh seemed uninjured, yet she struggled to use it. She couldn't stand on her own, even to get out of the truck at home, so my husband had to help her up the stairs. Disturbingly, Gracie has eaten only twice since we brought her back on Thursday. We've reached out to Dawg Gone It to find out what happened, but no one seems to have any answers. We requested a review of the surveillance footage and were assured it would happen, but so far, nothing has been done. Despite promises that the manager would call us, she hasn't. When we called again on Friday, we were told that the owner was dealing with personal issues and couldn't review the video. Now it's Saturday, three days since Gracie came home, and neither a manager nor the owner has reached out or explained what occurred. Although her leg is improving slightly, she still refuses to eat. I'm extremely disappointed and disheartened that the staff at Dawg Gone It is prioritizing personal matters over addressing the concerns of their customers, especially when a beloved pet was returned in such distress. Sadly, we will not be using their services again

We've had our dogs there multiple times, for multiple nights stay. Always happy to walk in. Nobody ever comes home acting traumatized. You can walk in there and ask to be shown the place at random. I've done this. The staff that work there are nice. I've never had any issues. A++

Thank you for taking such good care of Augustus. I really appreciated the peace of mind I got knowing how well cared for he was. I especially appreciated the playtime with the other dogs, your working his medication in with his food, the attentive staff, and lastly, the wonderful grooming before pick up. I highly recommend Dawg Gone It…this is more than a five star facility. Thank you so much!

This is our go to home away from home for our pups. While we hate to leave them, we always know they will be safe and well cared for here. It gets expensive if you load up walks, play time and cuddles. Have a plan when going in or you will add everything at check in and get surprised when you pay. Be sure to book your reservation a free weeks ahead of time in the summer.

Casey has been coming here when we come to Pebble Beach to volunteer. Stephanie does great work every visit! 2025 will be our 3rd year!

Our Aussie, Gus, seemed to have enjoyed his stay at Dawg Gone It more than our previous arrangements via Rover. He stayed for a day and a half. I think it was $35-40 for one night and then an additional $10 per hour of group play time. Although I wish these types of services we're included in the stay, they did provide a long list of a variety of services at different price points and packages. The staff also shared a couple of stories about Gus' stay when we came in to pick him up, which was nice and personal.

I found myself in a situation where I had to board my service dog over night. this was not something I was comfortable doing and was very stressed. Dawg Gone It was absolutely wonderful. they allowed me to tour their facility even tho it was a last minute need and they where closing. it was clean and very nice by the time I left I felt comfortable leaving such an important dog in their care. They where respectful and obeyed my request that her Fi tracking collar be left on at all times. I feel confident knowing that if I ever travel in that area again and run into the need to board Snow that she will be safe and well cared for.

My doggie Lucy has always been treated with kindness and gentleness. I would never leave her anywhere else! Stephanie and Rob are doing a great job! Every one of their workers are A+ wonderful!

Wish I could give zero stars. Said my dog wasn’t interested in socializing with other dogs and kept my medium sized dog in a small kennel the entire week. Pretty suspicious that there are 3 reviews written but 101 total “reviews”. Just wanted to give others better expectation on what you are getting for the price. Will not use again.

I have boarded my two beagles here several times over the years. I took a tour of the place before I left them for the first time and was impressed by the overall cleanliness, security and bright and happy atmosphere of this facility. I feel 100% confident that my dogs are safe when they are staying at Doggone It in Monterey. The staff is polite and friendly, follow my feeding instructions carefully (one of my dogs was older and had some special needs) and my dogs are so happy when I pick them up. I highly recommend Doggone It to anyone looking for a great place for their dogs to stay for daycare or overnight boarding.

amazing place, i boarded my dog for the first time for the weekend that & she was so happy. they sent me pictures & videos & kept me updated the whole weekend. definitely made leaving her for the first time so much easier

We went to the US Open this week and had the delightful opportunity to take our two Cavalier’s (18 weeks old) to WaggsN’Naggs. The boys had so much fun. I highly recommend this business the staff and owners are incredible, friendly and very good with pets. Thank you so much for giving us peace of mind while enjoying the golf tournament.

Jan is awesome!! I've been taking my pets to her for years. She's so awesome with the animals and you can tell that she really loves taking care of them. Very clean environment and the grounds are beautiful!!!

We take our little dachshund there. It is very clean and is run very professionally. There are separate areas for little dogs and big dogs. Highly recommend. !!!

Nice and open. My Golden loves it there. Always comes back tired from all the playing.

Great place! Our dog loves going there.

Great people and our dog loved it.

Nails

I definitely recommend it...my dog was well taken care of, he had a lot of fun, he felt loved and cared for by the people who took care of him. I loved that place for my puppy. Since I saw it, I knew it would be an excellent place for him to feel at home. home..from now on every time you go on vacation this place will be your second home 🥰

I left my puppy Bruno for one week, I missed him so much. When I picked him up, he was as if I never left. I am so happy he can stay here for daycare and boarding, he loves it. Thank you wonderful staff!❤️❤️🐶🐶 …

We took our 'inherited' older blind/deaf dog there after his previous groomer had passed. We were hesitant as he is special needs and tends to be a shy boy. They were absolutely fantastic starting from the booking down to the groom. They updated me throughout the day on how he was doing, and kept me reassured the whole time. When it was time to pick up Joe, he was like a brand new pup! He was such a handsome boy and he was so excited to be feeling so fresh and clean. We will definitely be taking our old boy there again. Staff was amazing! Thank you!

We’ve brought our dogs here for years. Around 4 years ago Home Away From Home suffered a major fire in the building, and since, they have rebuilt and come such a long way. Our Aussie Shepherd Haku loves it here, and the staff know and love him. He always comes back to us clean and happy with a fresh grooming when we pick him up. It’s just a very personal experience with Home Away From Home. Joel obviously loves dogs, and has made his passion his career. Five stars from a loyal customer.

I am absolutely so disappointed that I brought my beautiful little rabbit Bambi to this establishment.The front desk was very rude and told me that our rabbit was stressed out and started biting her fur because we were late picking her up. She has never done that ever. When they brought her out she was missing a chunk of hair and stress shedding her hair was falling out please see picture. The front desk person also charged my card without asking. She was also very unprofessional saying that she will sue me because we told her that we were going to give them a bad review. Absolutely a horrible person. I can’t tell you how distressing this experience was.

After adopting my dog from the SPCA I was hesitant to take my pup to any groomer. After doing some research and asking friends/family I decided to make an appointment and bring him in. Joi was helpful with setting up an appointment and all the staff including the groomer were fantastic. The whole experience was easy and hassle free, not to mention the groomer did a great job. I am so glad I found this place and will continue to bring him in!

Nothing but good things to say! We have been taking our dogs here for about a year now, based on a neighbor’s recommendation and are very pleased with each visit! HAFH’s boarding, daycare, and grooming are great services. Our dogs come home well socialized and tired from play in daycare. The boarding is wonderful when we can’t take them with us, and they even have a big van that they can come pick up your pets if needed! The onsite grooming is also great, especially when combined at the end of a boarding or daycare. The dogs come back very well cared for! The staff have always been polite and professional, in person and on the phone, and are great people who care about the pets they’re watching. Couldn’t recommend them more!

Home away from home is by far the best place for your fur babies. Wonderful location, loving and caring owners and staff great prices not to mention awesome grooming services.We will definitely be back. Skittles loves you all.

Wonderful staff, I felt very comfortable my baby here for the weekend. They assured me that she would be well taken care of, and she was. They were quick to respond when I asked how she was doing, and even sent me videos of her playing outside. I was nervous to take her because sometimes my Doberman gets snappy with other dogs. But they kept her alone, and still let her outside to play. I didn’t have to worry about a thing the whole time she was here and I thank you for that.

HAFH has been so amazing with my pup, Opal! Opal is a rescue and tends to be shy/skiddish in new places, with new people, and with new pups. But the HAFH staff have been SO helpful, welcoming, and supportive of Opal! She has been so taken care of and loved there. I know she’s safe and having fun during daycare and boarding stays! Truly a wonderful facility with amazing staff! Opal & I will miss you!!

Absolutely fantastic customer service, and even better service for my dog. I use their services often for when I am out of town or need a daycare, and they are fantastic every single time. They really show they care about the animals they work with and will even take time to give my dog a quick bath if she's played too much throughout the day! My dog also always comes home happy and ready for a looong nap after playing all day. Highly recommend their services for any of your pets needs.

We have had the opportunity to find local pet sitters in our travels over the past several years. Freya, Happy Dog Carmel, was the absolute best dog sitter we have come across in the five years we have had our dog, Zoe. She shows a genuine interest and possesses a certain spirit or energy with animals. “Zoe” can be a little ‘clingy’ or needy and she looked forward to seeing Freya the next day of our trip. We highly recommend Happy Dog Carmel whenever the need arises. Freya will give your pet the love and attention that they deserve.

I booked a last minute trip to Pebble Beach to see my parents who were in town & didn’t know what to do with my 9 week old mini dachshund! I couldn’t leave her alone for too long just yet, so a quick google search led me to Freya’s business and her hotel sitting offerings. Freya was nothing short of perfect for Olive’s first experience with a dog sitter. Freya came to the hotel I was staying at, was super flexible on timing as we were at dinner, and tired out my girl so much she slept straight through the night for the first time since getting her. She sent photo updates & even shared tips of what she noticed Olive potentially liked or disliked in toys and activities. It was worth its weight in gold to have the peace of mind of Freya with Olive & I’ll definitely give her a call again when I’m back in the area!

We couldn't be happier with the care Freya provided for our pup, Birdie! From the moment we met, it was clear that Freya has a genuine love for animals. Birdie instantly felt comfortable and at home, which is no small feat considering how shy she can be. Freya kept us updated with adorable photos and fun updates, which really put our minds at ease. We came back to a happy, well-exercised pup who clearly had a fantastic time. If you're looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter, Freya is the best choice.

We (and our dog!) had a genuinely VIP+ and completely worry-free experience with Freya and Happy Dog Carmel while visiting Monterrey for the 2023 holiday season. After traveling to the area so many times over the years, my wife and I always returned home a little disappointed that we could never visit the Monterrey aquarium since we always brought our dog with us, knowing how pet-friendly the entire region is. This time around, we had the idea to search for a local service that could board or take our Pomeranian for a day so we could finally visit the aquarium. After literally spending 4+ hours on Google searching for options in Carmel and Monterrey and checking reviews of the top ones, I was still skeptical and concerned since every single one had some recent bad reviews here and there. One that presents itself as a "luxury" option in the area didn't respond to my contact promptly, and when it did, the address provided didn't match its website; it was a house in a random area in Carmel. When I checked Happy Dog Carmel — the only option I found with consistently positive reviews — I wasn't sure if they would take our dog since their website doesn't mention such service; only dog walking, sitting-at-the-hotel, or in-home visits. However, I was happily surprised when I contacted Freya, who promptly confirmed she could take our dog for the day. And what a great day! As part of Freya's services, she picked up and dropped off our dog at our hotel. We had the guarantee our dog would have full attention since she takes one dog at a time, avoiding him being in touch with unknown/unruly/unvaccinated dogs. She also sent several pictures of him throughout the day, which I attached to this review (she is also a great photographer, as you can see!), and took him on a nice trail walk to put his high energy to good use. Our dog spent a whole day with Freya, and my wife and I finally could visit the aquarium completely worry-free, knowing our dog was in good hands with her constant updates. Her punctuality, the fact that she truly and genuinely loves pets, and how she maintained fantastic and responsive communication throughout the process are also worth mentioning. When we return to the Carmel and Monterrey areas, we now finally have someone we can trust and count on again.

We had a great experience with Freya of Happy Dog Carmel!! It was our wedding weekend and she not only took care of our yellow lab during the party and the rehearsal but she also helped us out with the ceremony so Nala could deliver the rings!!! Thanks Freya!!!

My husband and I came to Carmel for a little honeymoon trip. We brought our 4 year old Labradoodle Roscoe, but also planned some outings with just the two of us. Freya and Happy Dog Carmel were referred by our hotel and we couldn’t have been happier with her service! She was always prompt, provided transportation to and from the hotel, and even sent photos and an update of Roscoe’s playtime. We look forward to hiring her again when we return to Carmel.

We spent a month in Carmel and used Freya numerous times each week. Zipper loved his walks, play time and just hanging out with Freya. Happy Dog Carmel is a professional service, we valued the personal attention our dog received and we felt safe leaving our little man with Freya. She was always on time, sent pictures and kept us up to date on their activities. I would recommend Happy Dog Carmel service to friends and plan on using Freya again.

Freya was wonderful with Quincy!! She gave him lots of love and took him on nice long walks. And she kept in touch by text and sent photos. She was very professional and pleasant and we will happily use her services again!

Freya is an absolute gem. Not only a great human, but a total dog whisperer. Our senior dog Presley is 18 and it's hard to leave him, but I never have hesitation if I am leaving him with Freya. Your beloved pet will be in good hands!

My wife and I visited Carmel for a long weekend with our dog Simba. We wanted to have a spa day and also a night out for dinner at a nice restaurant. We were lucky enough to have Freya referenced to us and it was an amazing service! She picked him up both days at the hotel and drop him off as well, he was very excited the second time she came which doesn’t happen a lot with Simba, so we knew he had a good time. Would highly recommend and would use her service again if we visit Carmel.

We organized a wedding package with the walker Maurie and we could not be happier with the service we received. Her and Dan were overly communicative about how to organize a wedding package as they had not already established one, and they were so flexible. Maurie was great about keeping our dog near the party, but never in the way. Our dog was so happy to be a part of the day and he really got along so well with Maurie. We are convinced he would have played with her all day. He seemed to be so in love with her when she picked him up and dropped him off. They truly cared about making it a special day for us, as well as keeping our dog in great spirits, and we cannot recommend them enough!!!

My husband Steve and I have been clients of Monterey Pet Care since January 2012. It is an excellent company with quality staff - reliable, trustworthy, and accommodating. Initially, we arranged for daily walks for our two labrador retrievers when I was working full-time and my husband was recovering from hip surgery. But due to our busy lives and the excellent experience we had in the beginning, we have continued with a regular daily walk for our dogs since then. We trust them, and they really ease our load! We are concerned "parents". We center our lives around the dogs, because not only are they wonderful and loving family dogs, they are active, energetic dogs who need a lot of exercise. And because we have had dogs of all ages since January 2012 - young adult dogs, elderly dogs, and puppies - one dog with knee problems, and even one who had chemotherapy, we can attest that the walkers are good with all ages and conditions. We feel fortunate to have found Monterey Pet Care with its very dependable, friendly, and professional walkers. They arrive on time and treat our dogs and everyone they meet with respect. If owners have preferences, they will do their best to follow them - for us, this means they lock the doors when they leave even if we are home.

Easily 10 stars out of 5!!! Jen met us and our two dogs for a day visit a couple weeks ago. Our dogs had been total homebodies and never socialized with other dogs. Jen made us at ease and when we picked them up they were happy, exhausted and had played with the other dogs all day. She said she would introduce the dogs one at a time and make them comfortable. We were so happy with the day visit we used her for a four day vacation. This location is Disneyland for doggies. Jen and her family love the dogs and interact with them all day and night. We received daily updates, pictures and videos. This is above and beyond what we had received at another boarding location. Knowing our dogs were safe and happy allowed us to enjoy our trip. Jen even worked one on one with our two dogs, teaching the pup to play well with the little dog. She is truly amazing and we recommend her and will be using her for more trips in the future.

Beyond 5 Stars! We are locals and were going on vacation to Europe and needed a place to leave our Aussie. She's really sensitive to the noise of garbage trucks and UPS/FedEx trucks so we were hoping for something quiet. The Kloud 9 property is set 'up above the road' and is accessible by a narrow driveway, too small for the above mentioned trucks - so quiet for our dog! Jen kept us updated with emails and many photos of our dog having a great time with many of the other dogs boarding there. Knowing our pup was well cared for and having a good time made us feel great. When we got back we could tell that our dog was happy to see us but was sad to be leaving Jen and Kloud 9.

We love Kloud 9 Ranch. Our dog is so well taken care of there. Jen, the owner, is a veterinary tech and she loves to work with dogs. She has done very good things with our "reactive" dog and she always has such "spot-on" insights into our dog's behavior.

Walter loves coming here. Jen gives him so much attention. He comes home exhausted from so much fun. The place is sparkling clean, doesn't reek of dog and Jen is just so nice to work with. We wish her many many more years of success, because I'd hate to take our dog anywhere else.

I contacted Kloud 9 Ranch via email in an attempt to board my dog, and never received a response. When several days passed, I called to no answer and subsequently sent a text to follow-up. I received a very short response saying they are not taking new clients, which is fine, however if I would've received a response I would've looked elsewhere and not have been in a pickle trying to board my dog on short notice. I thanked the owner and simply asked/recommended that they post that on the website or respond to reservation requests with that information. I was completely shocked when I received the most unprofessional response: "If I had time for that I would but I do not and since you feel the need to give advice I will return the favor. Don't assume you know anything about anyone before you speak to them personally." While anyone can understand that life events happen that limit people's time, it is ludicrous to me that a business owner would take such a rude approach to a potential client. Word to the wise to anyone considering reaching out to this person for dog boarding, save yourself the time and curt interaction.

This is a beautiful impressive place where dogs and people are treated personally and with respect, attention to detail, careful planning and a background of experience. It is a fun and relaxing mood up there, but also no-nonsense ....about health, security and discerning and meeting individual needs.

Jen is great! Our dog had a great time while at the ranch. Will certainly be using her again.

Great place! Would highly recommend. Jen is very accommodating and will treat your dog as family.

Dropped my pup off for half a day so my family could go to the Aquarium. It was 2 blocks from the Aquarium and reasonable to keep her there for the day. It was raining out, so they washed her paws when I came to pick her up to get the mud off. She seemed in great spirits when she came out! Would recommend for travelers needing to board the dog!

Gus has the best time at the day care! Definitely well use again when we visit Monterey

My husband, checked our dog who Is a cockapoo into “Casa de Amigos Animal Hotel” on October 20th , 2024, in Monterey California. At or around 4:30PM that evening, my husband and myself arrived at the facility to retrieve our dog at which point the hotel staff informed us that our dog had went missing from the facility. The staff had failed to properly secure their facility and supervise our dog as per the agreement. The police was contacted on behalf of my family and matters were taken into our own hands as the facility informed us that they did not have protocol for this type of incident. I was able to track my dog based off information received from a good Samaritan who located my missing dog and had submitted information to the police department. The staff and entire facility failed to show any sort of sympathy towards this situation and didn't seem to care that our dog was missing. We have not yet received a call from the manager or owner of the business regarding this matter. I am extremely unsatisfied with the service we were provided with. The lack of professionalism that was demonstrated in this facility needs to change immediately.

The staff at Casa de Amigos is always courteous and profession. They always remember my dog and are enthusiastic to see her when we walk in. My dog gets so excited when we pull into the parking lot! I love that they send pictures daily when we board her overnight.They have reasonable pricing and are kind enough to offer a military discount.

Very kind and accommodating staff, even gave my mother a tour to help calm her separation anxiety. Thank you for the great service and care for our dog

My little guy absolutely LOVED going to Casa de Amigos! The staff here are wonderful, and treat your dog like family. They always text me photos, which I appreciate. Your pup is in good hands here. I cannot recommend them enough! Also, their grooming services are AMAZING!

Used the daycare while visiting the aquarium. I had emailed earlier in the week with someone there. But they did not have our reservation when we arrived but everything went fine checking our little guy in they still accepted him. Picked him up 7 hours later and he is pooped and happy. Smooth process and the folks there were very nice. Next time we are in Monterey I would come back and recommend.

Our pup Cooper love this place, staff is very friendly and we love taking him there. Love how they send us pictures of him throughout the day as well! Such a sweet touch

my dogs first time at day care so i was nervous staff was friendly and even sent me pics of her playing made me feel at ease definitely recommend

They are so great and take good care of your pets. We have a 9 month old we've been bringing for daycare for socialization and they've been really great with her and have really made gains with her. Would recommend. We trust them with her when we have to board over night as well.
