Tressa and Kyle are stellar hosts. TrustedHouseSitter community is lucky to have them. It's a pleasure to stay in their beautiful home in Seattle area, and spent 2.5 weeks with adorable fur companions. Sitka and Oakley are precious, easy going and cuddly. They are filled with warmth, which reflects how great of fur parents Tressa and Kyle are. Tressa and Kyle are very supportive, collaborative, and responsive throughout their time away. Even though they are out of town, they're present to provide you of any needs for a successful sit. Tressa's kindness, generosity and communication made the pet/house/plant sitting went smoothly. Thank you again for the trust, and opportunity to care for Sitka and Oakley. I highy recommend <3
Tracy and Steve have welcomed us warmly and explained everything important we need to know about and around the cozy and comfortable home and Alfie. Alfie is a super relaxed cat and very easy to take care of. He is intelligent, cuddly and sweet. We enjoyed the moments together on the beautiful terrace. You can have short and longs walks around the house. The location is also near to fuengirola, marbella and malaga for example. Thank you Steve and Tracey that you gave us the chance to experience your home and Alfie. We definetly loved it and would come back again if the opportunity arise.

I cannot say enough good things about the care and attention our dog Bentley received from Lake Farm. We have boarded her in many places and have never seen her as happy and calm as when she stayed here. The staff is exceptional and loving and attentive. I recommend them with full faith and confidence.
Such a nice place. Our dog Luna was very happy here. I can't say enough how happy we were with this place. While you can't tour the actual kennels (a common practice at many if not most such places), while standing at the desk, I was able to peek into the kennel area a bit. Each dog appears to have a pretty large and well kept space. Luna also had morning dew on her a few times when we picked her up which made us happy to know that she was getting play time outside. The cost was very reasonable. All of the extras are clearly laid out. Such as additional fees for administering medicine. You can also get your pooch groomed while they are there. We came a few times to pick Luna up and take her to the beach. She was always clean and happy when we would pick her up and when it came time to drop her off, she was actually excited to return. Finally I spoke with to several locals when we walked Luna in the area and I can say that the owners of Lake Farm Kennels are very well known and well regarded in the community.
My dog loved meeting new, kind, dog friends. The staff was warm, patient and loving. A home away from home. Donna was great giving lots of love. My dogs’ first time in a kennel but he didn’t miss me and happy to see his peers . Lots of attention and a great experience! They even have doggie ice cream. Fun time. He had a great vacation. Thank you for everything.
UPDATE TO MY REVIEW After more than 7 months with this negative review posted, only after more than 500 people have read it does the owner place a response that says "this is our policy" Please read my original review below and decide for yourself. I have boarded my dogs there with no problem for about 10 years. Today when I went to pick up my dogs expecting to pay for 2 nights I was charged for 3. I was told that 11am starts a new day. I was there at 1pm. I was surprised and disappointed that this business would be so petty. Even prorating the extra 2 hours I could see but no I was charged the full next day rate. When I voiced my displeasure I was told that is our policy. My husband and I own our own business so we are not unfamiliar with what it takes to run a business but we both agreed we would never treat a customer of ours like that. It did not sit well with us as we were returning from a family funeral. We will no longer be using or recommending this business to anyone. Someone so small should not be rewarded for treating return customer's so poorly.
The staff are extremely professional, friendly, and most importantly loving to the pets they take care of. My dog (45 lb dalmatian/lab) stayed for a full week and she was happy as could be when we picked her up. She also got a bath while she was there and she looks, smells, and feels so fresh! Highly recommend Lake Farm Kennels for your pet!
We loved this place. The COVID situation forced us to find a new solution for boarding our dog while we were in Cape Cod this year. The staff is kind and accommodating. As long as he was there, we had the dog groomed. What a great job! He looks like a new dog. Thanks for making a tough situation a little easier.
My husband took our 7 month old, very active puppy there for 2 days while I was away. Both my husband & the puppy were very pleased with the whole experience. Shorty was more mellow than ever in the evenings.
I just wanted to share how great this group is...: brought my husbands grandmother(Mary) ‘s dog “Diva” in after a long overdue hair cut. They saw how badly she needed a haircut and made sure they could fit her in. Mary called us last weekend and told us Diva is like a new dog! Happy, running around and energetic since we brought her to lake farm. Thank you for taking on Diva and we will be back to bring our dogs!!
Can't say enough good things about Lake Farm. They do an outstanding job at taking care of dogs. Very personalized service...no doubt because it is a family owned business. My dog stayed with them for 3 weeks and she was never so happy.
They do an excellent job grooming my old dog. He's always happy to visit them and looks like a happy little puppy when I pick him up
Dawn is beyond amazing! Our fur babies ( 2 dogs and 2 cats) loved her immediately. She took such good care of all of them in our home while my husband and I were away. She constantly kept us updated and sent pictures. We felt so at ease with Dawn. She really got to know all of them before she sat for us and treates them as of they were her own. Thank you again Dawn for being so wonderful to our kids❤️
Dawn, from Shore Pet Care, did an absolutely wonderful job with our pets! They love her and it was so comforting to get daily pictures and updates. There's no question our animals are better off staying at home with a loving and responsible sitter than going to a kennel. Dawn also took great care of our house. We couldn't be happier with her services.
Dawn and her dog sitting services are the best! She takes incredibly good care of my 2 Boston Terriers, Rosie & Jackie. I have complete confidence in her ability to handle all situations while I’m away. She is able to help out when I have last minute changes in my plans either staying longer with my dogs or returning later to check in on them. Most importantly she has a true love of dogs and it shows!
My dog Peach has really bad separation anxiety, which makes it difficult to find a good petsitter! Dawn is the only one, other than my parents, that I can trust my pup with; She will do whatever Peach needs to feel comfortable which sometimes includes lots of talking to know she is not alone, sitting on the floor with her and lots of snuggles!
Dawn took care of our two very active dogs for a week in our home when we were on vacation. She and her team did a wonderful job. I think the house may have been cleaner than when we left, and the pups were perfectly happy and safe! I highly recommend her.
She was great with my cats while I was away. I recommend her to others who are looking for pet sitters
Well managed, extremely clean and staff is well trained and friendly. My dog grew up in multiple daycare environments and when he comes home from PETiculars he is clean, doesn't smell, and isn't stressed out. You can tell he's well cared for, and has been given individual care and played with. The cost is straight forward with no hidden fees and I love that there are a clear number of staff to dog ratios that makes me feel safe dropping off my dog and know he's being watched closely and not getting lost in a mix. Every holiday it feels like there are adorable "school pictures" shared, and every time I pick my dog up I get a personalized and detailed update on how he did that day from a staff member. If something new is going on, customers are updated by management, and I feel everything is very upfront, straightforward and transparent. Highly recommended!
PETiculars is an amazing daycare for dogs. It is very clean, never overcrowded and the staff is always friendly. There is plenty of space so that dogs with different levels of energy can each do their own thing. Amber enjoys relaxing on a cot in the sunshine while other dogs are running around and having too much fun! Pictures and videos of the dogs are posted throughout the day. Boarding and nail trims are also available.
Best staff!! They treat my pup like family! Very accommodating. 10/10 recommend!
This day care center is excellent! 5 stars across the board, from the owner/operator who goes to the greatest lengths to make sure the dogs are happy, safe, clean, and taken care of from a-z. It is a meticulous, cheery place with an outstanding owner. Can't say enough great things, after many years of experience with the owner...excellent all around.
I took my pup Tobie there many times and he loved it..Last visit was in 2020... I was so glad to see that this business is still doing well..
We love Peticulars The staff is caring and pleasant The facility is accommodating and clean The feedback is always prompt and in detail Always a smile Maggie is happy there
Clean facility. Some of the best staff. Pups are treated like family. Highly recommend.
If you are planning to do dog daycare in Cape Cod during summertime- make sure you reserve a spot few months before. It is a lesson for me to learned. One of my dogs have separate anxiety. It has been stressful for me to leave him home alone. Lucky, I found Peticulars. Owner showed me around their cute daycare first. Workers are so friendly and welcoming. They are very communicative. My level of stress went down to 0%. They spoke highly of my dogs. It’s like they pay attention to my dogs. Also, one of them were able to trim my Teddy’s nails with no problem. My local daycare in my hometown couldn’t do this. Highly recommend! I will be back when I am back to Cape Cod. Thank you!
I spend a lot of time on the Cape with my daughter and grand kids. Our dog is a rescue and we take him everywhere with us. But I needed a place to leave him on days when it is too hot or cold for the car: a place I trusted, a place where he would be properly and well taken care of. I found that place at PETiculars. I called them one morning, went over within the hour to tour the place, and was able to leave my dog that same afternoon for a few hours. He loved it there. And he came home happy and tired. The staff were friendly and informative. They clearly knew dogs. I recommend PETiculars highly. Of course, I'd rather keep them a secret so I can be sure of an open spot for my pup! It is a small facility, so call ahead. These guys are so good, they will become very popular. Prices were very reasonable. One drawback, they don't do overnights right now. Thanks for taking such good care of Sebastian!
We absolutely love Peticulars! Pups (Chloe - a 14 lb. Yorkie and Chaz - a 84 lb Doodle) love coming to play! They don't look back once they go through the doors and guaranteed to be exhausted when they come home! The staff are loving and caring and owner, Linda, is the best! I trust the pups here cause they treat them like our fur babies, with love and care! Highly recommend!
Greta has been going to Derbyfield Kennel for grooming & boarding since September, 2022. I was nervous leaving her there the first time at 14 months old as she had never been away from home. I cannot praise the wonderful staff there enough! Greta loves going there & loves the staff especially Holly! The staff truly love dogs!!
I took my 16 yr old shitzu to Derbyfield 2 wks ago for a grooming. Due to her age, I was a little nervous. I spoke to them about her ahead of time and had a good feeling about this place. Lisa groomed her and did a fantastic job and I knew my little one felt very comfortable. I would highly recommend Derbyfield and many thanks to everyone there for their kindness.
My dog has gone there since a puppy. He gets groomed and stays in kennel when I go away. Everyone there is so friendly and he loves them.
Very nice place to board your pet.
Our dog Harper LOVES Holly and the staff at Derbyfield. His tail starts wagging as soon as we pull in the lot.....and runs to see Holly at the door. He is always so well groomed when we pick him up...We love the fact that he is so happy to be there....we wouldn't go anywhere else.
Derbyfield is amazing. We have been boarding with them for years. Gretchen ( princess) and Marbles are always warmly welcomed and well taken care of. Holly and her staff are amazing and they take great care of our babies. I can't thank them enough for all they do. Derbyfield is by far the best place to take your pets for grooming, training, and boarding.
They treated my dog, Nell well & with obvious care. She was very happy & calm after her visit.
I am so impressed with Derbyfield. My rescue dog Tess is not good with other dogs and slow to warm up ti people. They had her in for a day to see if it would work which it did. Last week I had an out-of-town family emergency and they took her in although the kennel was full. All the staff is so kind to her that she heads in tail wagging and comes home tired but happy. Holly is a great manager and truly loves and understands dogs.
Derbyfield Kennel is the best place on Cape Cod, trustworthy to entrust your pets. Holly, the manager, is wonderful as are all the staff. We have just picked up our newest family member after a week at Derbyfield, and Grace is sound asleep here in the car... happy as a clam.
My dog Brooks stayed at Derbyfield Kennel for a week while I traveled. He was well taken care of and a happy dog. The staff is awesome and truly care for the animals. The facilities are very clean and organized. Derbyfield Kennel will be Brooks second home when I travel. I highly recommend Derbyfield Kennel.
