Dear Marlene and Petra, we had a fabulous time in your beautiful light-filled home, and of course with dainty Siena and handsome Peppino. They are such sweet and relaxed companions, but fierce when attacking and demolishing their cardboard box prey, honoring their Bengal tiger ancestry. Siena would curl up on my bed at night, as tiny as she is - an unmovable lump. Or she would come bouncing down the long hallway with a victorious cry and proudly present me with a mouse (luckily a stuffed toy mouse), and I would praise her for being such a smart hunter. Peppino would watch from his pillowed perch in the kitchen, his favorite place, ever ready for a juicy tuna feast. How could we not fall in love with them? We will surely miss them. Thank you again, Marlene and Petra. We wish you all the best and hope to meet again. Irene and Stefan
Five stars all around! Joni and Dennis were welcoming and hospitable. Their home is clean, beautiful, peaceful and most relaxing. Sitting on the deck amongst the trees you feel quite remote, but anything you need is about a ten-minute drive away. We spent most of the sit just relaxing at home with Conor. They also have a fabulous kitchen for those who like to cook (like us). It's so well equipped you might have to look around to find everything. But everything is there. You've probably never seen more perfectly seasoned cast iron skillets. Conor is the star of the sit. He's a polite gentleman living in a dog's body. He's amazingly well behaved and a perfect host. Even at 8 years old, he has an adorable "puppy face". We absolutely fell in love with him. He's not at all needy but will take all the hugs and pets you can offer. He's a giant cuddly teddy bear and just wants to be near you. Conor likes short off-leash walks on a street just up the hill behind the property and is great at recall, although he doesn't stray far from you to begin with. He also loves to dance with you in the yard. ;). He's very quiet inside, and only barks outside when he "sees" something. Often something that isn't visible to the human eye. The chickens were easy. They have I'd guess nearly a quarter acre just to themselves to roam during the day and cluck-about happily. They were very productive when we were there. We miss Conor already and certainly hope to return for a future sit!
I had a lovely week with Fernando (Ferdie)! He is very easy to care for, super cute and the cuddliest little guy. Ferdie spends a lot of his time outside but will always come back regularly throughout the day. You’ll know he’s back home because each time he’ll come find you to let you know and will meow/chat to you until you acknowledge his presence with some pats 😂 it’s honestly the cutest. Sarah is lovely and easy to communicate with. She was responsive and friendly before, during and following the sit. Her instructions were clear and simple, so everything was very straightforward. The flat is gorgeous, light and bright with a lovely back garden. It is super clean, tastefully decorated and has everything you need for a comfortable sit. It’s on a quiet residential street with loads of amazing cafes, pubs, a big Sainsburys and wonderful independent shops in the surrounding area. Gipsey Hill train station is moments away (less than 5 mins) which conveniently takes you to London Bridge in about 20 mins. Overall this was a wonderful sit :)
Magdalena is a great host! She communicated very clearly and had a thorough welcome guide. Her dogs are very friendly, are great walking buddies, and are super chill. The house is very nice and in a safe neighborhood. I would definitely recommend this sit!
I had a wonderful experience housesitting for Kathleen and her sweet cat. The cat was incredibly adorable and loving, making my stay even more enjoyable. The house itself was incredibly comfortable and had everything one could need, located perfectly in Boulder. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to housesit again. Thank you.
Banksy is such a gentle teddy bear. He’s well-behaved and friendly. I really enjoyed his company and I hope he enjoyed mine. Jennifer was so wonderful and very approachable. Her and her husband are such a beautiful couple. The neighborhood is very safe and the neighbors are friendly as well. There’s a grocery store just walking distance which was nice. I only had a pleasant experience.

Like many dog owners, my cavalier is one of the family. I’m a bit over protective and certainly concerned for not only his health but his daily love of life. Where to leave him while going on vacation was a difficult decision until we learned about Rosedale Pet Resort. The personal care and attention he receives there and the upscale facilities make that decision easy, now. He has been going there 3 to 4 times a year for four years. We have always been very happy with the personal care he gets and the pictures and updates received. He always seems excited to be there when we drop him off and always excited to see us when we pick him up: much like we are excited to get to our vacation spot and then happy to be home once again. It’s always hard to leave my sidekick behind but I never have to worry about his welfare at Rosedale. I truly believe we both end up with enjoyable vacations.
Couldn’t ask for a better place to board our boy. I’ve boarded two of our dogs before and Amy is amazing as always, but this was the first time my Newfie boarded alone in the 12 years of his life. We recognized that he wasn’t doing well with riding the car long distance and with the summer heat, we thought he’d do better boarding. I was naturally concerned, but Amy knew him and reassured me that he’d do fine. She couldn’t have been more right. She sent us pictures daily and he looked so happy that I had the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation even though it was without him this time. There honestly is no better place for dedicated attention to the wellbeing of dogs, especially seniors. Our dog really came to life having been blessed with so much love and attention this weekend.
Today was our 5 month old puppy’s first visit. He has had very little interaction with other dogs or people. Amy was amazing, gentle and understanding . She made Ollie’s visit as positive as possible. He came home at peace. We feel extremely grateful to have found this pet resort.
Amy was fabulous with our dog George. He stayed for 10 days and had a terrific time on his daily walks. I would definitely recommend Rosedale Pet Resort. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience at Rosedale Pet Resort. Both my dog and cat stayed over Christmas Break and Mel sent me pictures everyday of both of them, letting me know how they were doing. Where the extraordinary service came in was when our flight got cancelled and extended for 4 days because of bad weather. Without missing a step Mel said she would keep our pets as long as we needed and to not worry. I had only packed enough food for the week they would be there, so Mel and her husband Jon went out in the snow and bought both our cat and dog their food! I was so overwhelmed with emotion. What an amazing small business to do this! We ended up getting in super late on New Years Eve so Mel kept them another night for us free of charge and said that Jon would even deliver the both of them to us in the afternoon. I am so appreciative to Mel, Jon and Rosedale Pet Resort. You can tell how much they love animals. I will definitely continue to use them in the future.
Mel took such good care of my three animals which consist of two seniors (cat and dog) and a younger dog. Mel was so good at communicating with me daily, sending photos and updates on each of them it made being away from them much easier. She offers the best customer service that I have ever received and I will not go anywhere else to board my animals moving forward. Highly recommend Rosedale Pet Resort!!!
I cannot say enough positive things about Mel and the Rosedale Pet Resort! We took our 3 year old goldendoodle to stay for the weekend while we attended a wedding. Drop off was easy, they gave Chewie time to get acclimated and then he had the best time playing and enjoying his weekend. I know, because Mel kept me updated with texts and pics throughout the weekend! It can be a little nerve wracking when you try a new boarding facility, but Rosedale Pet Resort made sure I was comfortable and reassured all weekend. After playing hard all weekend (and possibly rolling around I. The mud! 😜) it was such an amazing bonus to pick up our freshly bathed pup! Booking was so easy online as well. I was able to request the reservation when I was thinking about it and not try to remember during a hectic work day. I would highly recommend Mel and the Rosedale Pet Resort! Chewie can’t wait to go back!
This was our first time using Rosedale Pet Resort for our eleven year old pup. From the first interaction with Mel, it was clear how passionate she is about taking care of animals. Rosedale Pet Resort stands by its name; it has a small “boutique” feel to it with personalized care. The grounds are fully fenced with trails and grassy areas for the pups to get lots of exercise. The “Deluxe Sleepaway Campout/Dog Bunkhouse” is private, secure and clean with a comfy dog bed and plenty of room to move around- there are no crates which is a big plus! Mel provided me with lots of pictures and updates each day and I could tell how much fun our pup was having playing with the other dogs. It was wonderful knowing that my pup was being so well taken care of. The icing on the cake was that Mel gives all dogs a bath just before pick-up time. My pup was so soft and smelled heavenly! We have the highest praise for Mel and look forward to using her services again.
THANK YOU to Mel, Jon and the Perry Kids for loving our dogs like they were your own while we went on a mini-vacation. We were beyond impressed with the ease of making an appointment via your website, your attention to detail to ensure the dogs needs are met while keeping them safe and having fun while they had their own vacation! Rosedale Pet Resort is exactly what Gig Harbor needed and we are lucky to have a local family care for our loved ones as much as they do. Our previous kennels felt cold/drop your dog and leave kind of places. The Perry's made us feel welcome and put our minds at ease as we were worried about leaving our Olde English Bulldogge because he is a bulldog! Stubborn, doesn't play nice all the time and loves to hog all the bed/food/treats! Mel assured us he would be loved, cared for and welcomed. Mel took the time to introduce Russell to others, gave him his allergy meds and made sure he had "his space" when he needed it. Lola our Boxer loved her time as well. Jon and Mel took the extra time to send us pictures and give us updates on them both. You could see the smiles on our dogs faces!! They were have an amazing time which made our time away even more enjoyable. BONUS: Lola and Russell got a bath before we picked them up which is included with the stay! We never had a kennel do this or felt this at ease with any other kennel. They are now home happy, clean and exhausted!! If anyone needs a place for their dog or cat we would HIGHLY recommend Mel & Jon Perry at the Rosedale Pet Resort! Thank you for caring and loving our dogs so much!!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Mel. I had several questions before my reservation and she answered them all in a timely manner. My two senior puggles stayed Monday-Friday while I was on a work trip. One of my dogs has several medication needs and behavioral quirks and Mel was willing to take them all on at no additional charge. I got regular updates along with adorable pictures and when my flight was delayed she even let me pick up after hours. I would board my dogs here again in a heartbeat, you can tell they are treated with care!
