Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of Panther and looking after the house. When we returned, Panther was waiting in the doorway of the room she had slept in. I am not sure we were missed for a minute. I would happily have Jennifer stay again.
Spending the weekend with Abby was a dream! She is such a sweet dog and very well-mannered. Barbara gave a thorough rundown of Abby’s schedule and made sure I had everything I needed for my sit. I highly recommend this sit!
Hazel lies in a lovely 1 bedroom flat in Islington so super convenient in Central London. It has a beautiful back garden to enjoy in the warmer months. It's extremely close to all forms of transport including overground across the road, bus at the end of the street and piccadilly line tube just up the road. There is a Co-Op mini mart just down the road but there is plenty of shops, restaurants etc around. It's also an easy walk to Angel and Kings Cross. Phobe the cat is a "one woman cat". She loves Hazel and takes some time to warm up to strangers. Just give her space so she doesn't feel threatened. She tends to keep to herself but by the end of the sit, she came to say hello a few times. She is also partial to a treat so if you have the dreamies out, she will come and see what's going on. All Phobe really wants from you is to open and shut the doors to the garden and feed her. She tends to go to the bathroom outside too but would occasionally use the litter inside over night so I would clean that too. If you're looking for an easy sit in Central London, I would recommend minding Phobe. I would definitely sit for Hazel again.
I loved this sit! Butters and Morpheus are such great snuggle bugs. Kelsey is very sweet and terrific communicator. The neighborhood is gorgeous, both walkable and near public transportation to wherever you would want to go. I was there in summer and enjoyed fresh fruits and vegetables from her garden. I highly recommend this sit!
Daisy was a treat to look after and Clora and Red's home and surrounds were georgeous. We were very happy there. Thanks for making us so welcome.
What a joy it was staying with the lovely snugglesome Mr. Mango. He might be the sweetest cat I’ve ever met. I had a peaceful time in Dan and Krisna’s beautiful apartment overlooking Lake Union, the Olympics, the city and the Sound. Mt. Baker gleamed to the North. Walking in the North Capitol Hill neighbourhood was a treat. Volunteer Park is a stone’s throw away. Dan and Krisna are very gracious hosts. They communicated clearly and promptly to any questions I had. I would sit for them again in a snap.
I had a great experience staying at Chris and Sarah’s home for a couple days in Denver. They were very communicative and responsive. Biko is a sweetheart but can be slow to warm to strangers. He was stand-offish and anxious for the first day since I was a stranger in his home-best thing is to let him come to you! He did end up warming up around the 2nd day and then we cuddled lots. I would recommend sitters to start watching the house when the owners are home- I arrived once they had left and I think it made him more anxious. He enjoys being outside in the yard as much as possible. The house was very cozy, great to cook in, and a very nice, safe neighborhood. I especially loved their movie room in the basement! Would stay again!

Puppies In Play has been such a good place for Our boy Harley. He loves going there. They take such good care of him when he stays overnight. He has lots of friends there I recommend Puppies In Play to anybody who wants a safe place and a loving environment for their fur babies.
I recently used Sarina's dog sitting services at Puppies In Play and had a fantastic experience. She watched my three dogs, Martha, Maggie, and Melanie, for three days, and they were very happy when I picked them up. They even smelled great! Sarina's puppy play place in the Hayward Hills is amazing. It's clear she loves dogs and takes excellent care of them. My dogs had plenty of space to play and enjoy themselves. I've also recommended Puppies In Play to my clients when they need someone to watch their dogs while their house is on the market. Sarina has always been reliable and caring, making the whole process much easier. I highly recommend Puppies In Play to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter. Sarina did a wonderful job looking after my dogs. Thank you, Sarina!
I have left my pup Moka with Sarina several times for both day care as well an extended period of time (1 week) and have never had any issues. Moka comes back happy and healthy, Sarina sends pictures of the dogs to show them playing and doing well. Highly recommend Sarina and Puppies at Play!
My dog Katie has spent several days in day care. Katie thinks it's a nice place where she is treated well I feel comfortable leaving Katie in day care. I would recommend Puppies and Play.
My puppy loves Sarina, her family and their home. I can't remember how many times my puppy visited their but I can tell you one thing, everytime he visits them and come back home , he's a very happy and satisfied puppy. Happy puppy, happy parent. I would recommend Puppies in Play to every puppy parent. Love! Peace!
I've used Puppies n Play daycare/boarding services several times and they are amazing! Sarina is friendly, flexible, and takes awesome care of my 1 year-old pup. I love that she sends pictures of him with the other dogs or hanging out on the deck. He is always tired when I bring him home so I know he had lots of socialization and play time. Highly recommend!
We have trusted Sarina with our two dogs consistently for over five years now. We always know that they are cared for and we don’t have to worry about them whenever we go away. She is reliable and consistent and her quality and seamless care for our dogs make our lives easier! Your dogs will be in loving, and trustworthy hands if you go with puppies in play!
Great place to drop off your pet and have a wonderful time. Deebo was there 3 days and he looked like he had a whole lot of fun. Left his leash and food. Ensure to reserve a spot ahead of time. Great place!
We have been sending our puppy to Sarina for a few years and we know he is in the best care and so loved. Sarina looks after him like her own. She is amazing and so reliable.
This review is something I have waited to leave for numerous reasons. Back in April of this year my dogs stayed here for 4 nights and 3 days. We had let Sarina know that our puppy was special needs with some physical limitations. Honestly first impression everything seemed in order. You can’t go in to see where the dogs are staying because it is her house, which I can understand. However there are no cameras and updates were just a few pictures. However, everything still seemed in order. When we went to pick them up Sarina had mentioned off hand that our puppy had chewed his walking harness off while they slept. These harnesses are not to be kept on overnight as it’s a choking hazard. Then she said he had an accident on the stairs. He had hip issues and really needed to be careful on stairs. I brushed all of this off which was my first mistake. Over the course of 2.5 days my dog refused to eat and could barely walk. I rushed him to the emergency vet and he had a foreign object in his stomach (thought it was a piece of his harness but it was actually a rock) and his hip had been popped out of place. All of this is deeply upsetting because he had never had any issues at home and this was his first time at a pet sitters. I believe I am an understanding person and mistakes happen; I didn’t want to jump to conclusions too soon. We were lucky we got to the vet when we did and he had survived, up to that point. Since April we had reached out to Sarina to come to some sort of agreement. We have cameras on our property and we scoured them to make sure these things didn’t happen on our watch. We wanted to be absolutely sure before we brought her into it, and that we were being fair. We had asked her for her camera footage of the dogs and she refused. She even denied having said that our dog had an accident even though she had a doorbell camera where we were talking. She had made it seem like she was going to contact her insurance for a claim, but that went nowhere. Because we couldn’t “prove” that any of this happened in her care, she absolved herself of any responsibility. Unfortunately, within 4 months of my 14 month old dog having gone to Puppies in Play, his condition worsened every month until his body couldn’t take it anymore. He is no longer with us and I hope people consider my story before they send their dog to a sitter. I cannot blame her for my dog’s special needs or his untimely passing, but he was not right after he stayed there. It was thousands in vet bills and now a broken heart. I just wish she had taken some responsibility for what happened to him while he was in her care. If she had come to us and tried to make it right in whatever way she could, we would’ve appreciated that more than her apparent dismissiveness. It was never about the money, only the principals. I do believe this wasn’t malicious on her part and it was an accident but I also hope our situation helps her improve her business to make it safer for the pets and pet parents that choose to use her services.
Training with Ria set us up for a wonderful relationship with our shelter puppy, Heidi. As a first time dog owner, plus with a large breed 5 month old puppy, I lacked self-confidence. Ria was great with Heidi of course but even better with me, training me on how to train Heidi and patiently answering all of my many questions. I highly recommend her! Everyone at Workindoggz has been really nice, too, especially the owner, who gave us detailed recommendations on dog friendly trails. Plus the grooming service being right there is really handy. This is a great place in downtown Hayward, I'm thankful it's here.
Ria is an excellent dog trainer, actually people trainer. She trains you, to train your dog. If you do the homework assignments she gives you, your dog's training is accelerated. She guides you how to train your pet in a positive, gentle and loving way, with lots of praise and treats, making the process fun for both you and your dog. It takes time and patience on your part if the dog is going to be successful. Ultimately it's up to you to make it happen. If you don't follow through, it's not going to work. She gives you the key, but you do the driving since you're with the furry one all week and that's where the training is absorbed. Make it fun. Create a stronger bond and watch your four legged friend grow into a well behaved, wonderfully enjoyable family member. She's makes herself available by text if you forget something or need more guidance with a training method. I strongly recommend Ria as your trainer.
training review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ i’ve been taking my dog to Ria for training since she was a puppy and i’ve noticed nothing but good results and feedback. Ria is a trainer i would highly recommend since she gives great advice, offers different training styles depending on your dog, and is very knowledgeable and skilled in what she does. i had my dog signed up for the level 1 and 2 obedience training groups which is really helped my dog with proper socialization, especially when she was a puppy. the classes are an hour long which is plenty of time for your dog to learn and usually enough time at the end for all the dogs to play and the pricing is really fair. Ria’s not only helped my dog understand training more but has also helped me understand it better as well, and it has made training so much easier for the both of us.
Workindoggz is a great place to train your dog. My trainer is Ria (highly recommend her) for my puppy. She is very professional and what make her stand out is she not a type of person to strictly follow guidelines or slide shows when it comes to training. She mixes in her twist in to make the experience enjoyable and gives you tools to properly train your dog. I’ve use their service for grooming and daycare as well. Everyone here shows good customer service and takes great care of your dog.This is a great facility and highly recommend bringing your dog here!
Workindoggz has been great with their services for our dog. Special shout out to our trainee, Ria, for her wonderful help with training our adult dog. She has been very easy to work with and has wonderful insight in training our dog. Her transparency with expectations, by both parties, has given us the assurance on how we can train our dog effectively snd efficiently.
*TRAINING REVIEW ONLY* We moved to Hayward January of this year and one of our neighbors recommended Workindoggz after we got our Mini Goldendoodle puppy. We looked them up and saw they provided a lot of services and were close by. We started with their Group Training that included 5 classes for $250. They were 1 hour long each and once a week. Our trainer was Ria and she was hands down amazing! Call her a dog whisperer or something but she helped us so much with obedience training and her little teacher assistant, Corky, joined too to help supervise! Our class only had 2 other dogs including ours so it was perfect and helped the pups not only socialize but also focus. Ria was super accommodating too on some of the weeks we were unable to attend and she would work with us to reschedule. Sure, you can watch Youtube videos and train at home, but I highly recommend joining a puppy school to help with distractions, learn to play with other puppies, and get lots of tips from the trainer on YOUR training as an owner. There were some things we never noticed unless Ria pointed them out and she was right every single time. If you're in the area, definitely check out Workindoggz - they also have doggy daycare and grooming services (we just booked our first one this Saturday!). Check them out on IG: @workindoggz @larezabaytrainer @hangrypringles
I love workindoggz for everything, they really are a one-stop-shop for my pup! I get so many compliments on my standard poodle's hair cut and I owe it all to Vivian. My dog can be nervous at the groomers and they always handle him with such care. It turns out he really likes going to the groomers now because he normally goes to daycare after! I also recently signed him up for some training and hikes. He has so much fun and I always receive the best report cards. The owners, Cody, Maire, and Joe are incredible too. You can really tell that they care about you and your pup. They have always kept their prices very fair and I really appreciate that they don't charge for all the "extra" stuff as other places do, it's all included!
Ria, the dog trainer, is incredibly passionate about her work and genuinely cares for both you and your furry friend. She takes the time to understand your goals and tailors your training plan accordingly. What makes working with Ria even more enjoyable is that she creates a fun and welcoming environment for your training sessions! Highly recommend her services, especially for first-time dog owners!
I have been taking my dog to Workingdoggz for the past several months now and they have been amazing. Drop off and pick up are always a breeze. My dog Mia is super energetic and can sometimes be hard to handle/take care of. But the staff here have been amazing with her.
My dog is my world and I have been looking for an attentive and caring facility to help socialize and train my girl. I tried other options, but Workindoggz is clearly a great establishment. We signed up for 1:1 training and so far the consultation with Ria was tailored and informative. Will update once we complete the first session. Since we want to socialize our 7 month pitbull, we signed her up for day care and a hike. I loved that they gave us a report card with photos and videos of her experience. Will definitely continue to use this service. Also the owner, Cody, is super down to earth and kind. They’re doing great work here!
We have been searching for a trusting dog boarder and pet care center that really understands larger breeds. K9 Lounge took amazing care of our beloved Cane Corso and kept us posted with updates and pictures. We will definitely continue using this great service.
The K9 Lounge is an amazing spot to board your pets! It was our first time boarding our dog, and Robert made the process painless and easy. Everything from the communication to the booking is amazing! Our dog is highly anxious around other dogs and humans, but Robert made our dog feel right at home. His daily updates kept us at ease while we were away! Highly recommend, and we will definitely use your services more often. Thank you again!
Robert has been our go to and trusted pet host for the last 6 plus years. He's wonderful with communication/ providing updates and always makes sure our dog Winston is well taken care of. He truly cares about the pets he hosts and has thoughtfully created an amazing dog’s oasis; Winston never wants to leave when it’s time for pick up! We highly recommend booking with Robert.
Robert was friendly and professional and most important of all, my dog Angel was very happy after spending a few days with Robert. I would highly recommend K9 Lounge to anyone looking for a dog boarding service!
We are so happy we have found Robert as our dog sitter! After our initial conversation we had no doubt our GSD would be safe and well cared for. Robert is very nice and very helpful during the process. I would highly recommend their service and facility.
Always a great experience bringing our anxious and reactive doggy here. Robert made accommodations and extended the stay because we made a mistake on when to pick our dog up. Our only trusted doggy boarding place in the Bay Area.
Robert is a caring dog sitter, and has been wonderful with our Lucy (age 10). We've used him many times now and always receive updates and assurances on how she is doing. I can tell she was comfortable with him, and had a great time with the other dogs in his care. We could not ask for better care for our family member.
Robert did an amazing job taking care of Ariel during our spring break trip. I was definitely apprehensive about boarding her for the first time and Robert was very patient and understanding when answering my (sometimes odd) questions, so that was much appreciated. I also liked that Ariel was going to get much more personal attention than other kennels. I looked at some slightly cheaper kennels but they only offered "outdoor time" at an extra cost. Robert seems to intelligently pair up dogs that will play well together so that they get a chance to socialize and have some fun during their boarding experience. Ariel had some tummy issues on the first day she was boarded, but Robert was very quick in reporting back to me what was going on and the issue ended up resolving itself.. Overall it was a great experience and Ariel had a great time.
Robert is great with my pup Tibbers, his setup is great and it allows tibbers to feel at home and have fun. Robert does a wonderful job keeping me updated during my pups stay.
This was my first time ever boarding my dog and I couldn't be happier. Robert is absolutely lovely. His whole house is set up for animal boarding and he does an amazing job. He sends updates and pictures, he calls them report cards of your animal while there in his care. And when I went to pick up my dog yes she was very happy to see me but she wasn't shaking or stressed or alarmed at all you could tell she had a good time. And to top that off Robert taught her how to go through a doggie door which was pretty darn cool. I will definitely be using Robert again.
Molly and her team are wonderful, reliable, and experienced. Not only did my pup have a great time, but I got daily updates with tons of pictures. The Doggie Llama team does boarding, training, and dog walking right. When your pet is left with them you can rest assured that your pet is receiving quality care tailored to their needs and comfort. Their science-based approach to training and care sets them apart from the industry standard and sets my mind at ease knowing that my pet is receiving the highest quality of care.
EDIT: We are coming up on our five year anniversary being with Doggy Lama! Wow time has flown. We do have two new walkers that tag team, Joe (who is our primary walker) and Vero (who provides backup), but all the previous statements in my review are still valid. Joe and Vero are always communicative, respectful, and Warren can't wait to go on adventures with him and his pack. You can tell how much they each love and appreciate their dogs. ---- Our boy Warren, a border collie mix, LOVES his time with Kristen & Michael's packs. They're some of the most exceptional and trustworthy dog walkers we've had. Warren will wait up by the window for Kristen or Michael to come every morning - tail waggin a million miles an hour and whimpering from excitement. It makes me happy to see Warren get to play out on the trails, learn new skills, and socialize with his pals every day. Finding a trustworthy and professional dog walker is not easy. But Molly runs a tight ship, and the team she leads at Doggy Lama shows just how much she cares for and loves animals. If you're looking for pet care that exceeds the standard - I'd highly recommend you reach out to Doggy Lama.
Vanessa is pure gold. She has been walking my sweet husky-pit mix Margaux since she was a year old and forged an incredible bond not only with my pup, but with our whole family. Vanessa comes with heart, soul & leash - in that order. Vanessa adores her canine charges and they feel it. She is also a gifted photographer and I look forward to her pix every time Margaux goes out with her. She has my complete trust and gratitude. Margaux agrees!
I have worked with many dog walkers, dog trainers, and pet care professionals in the past. Doggy Lama Pet Care is a business with a different set of principles. They put positive reinforcement and employee training before profits and scale. A dog's physical and emotional health will always be Doggy Lama Pet Care's top priority. I was fortunate to work with the owner Molly and her dedicated team of employees. Every member of the staff was an absolute professional. I found the team to be incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about dogs. I have two rescue dogs that have their own cute little complexities. I am incredibly confident that any member of Doggy Lama Pet Care's team could properly care for my dogs and exceed my own expectations. I would highly recommend them for both private dog walking and group dog walking services. The team is especially qualified even if you have rescue dogs with complicated or unknown backgrounds.
Doggy Lama is my vote for the best small business in the Bay Area. This is not hyperbole! They are reliable, transparent, informative, and caring. We feel so comfortable with them, and often lean on their guidance and advice for taking care of our dog Rory. Our walker Jeysi feels like a member of the family. Every weekday she reliably arrives at our home, Rory runs to greet her, and off they goes with a pack of 5-7 dogs on a beautiful East Bay trail. A few hours later Rory comes home happy and tired. And then Jeysi sends us a written summary along with beautiful photos and videos from the day. It seems like such a fun pack. We're so, so grateful for Jeysi. Attaching just one pic here. But I have about 8,000,000 others that are equally frame worthy!
I absolutely love Doggy Lama Pet Care!. My dog walker, Sophie, is the best!. Always let's me know when she is arriving and coming home with my 🐶, Grace. Sends pictures of her hiking adventures. 100% Great Review! …
Molly and her team at Doggy Lama are the best! Our dog Toby always returns from his off-leash walks with Jordan having had lots of fun with his pack buds and tuckered out. It’s been a huge relief to know Toby is getting the exercise and stimulation he needs, especially during the work week when we can’t provide that for him to this level. This team is also amazing at communication, from day-of logistics to general awareness of seasonal considerations on the trail.
My dog loves Doggy Lama! She cannot wait for them to pick her up and is always exhausted and happy when they bring her home. She has totally bonded with Vanessa and Merrigold. I appreciate their communication and professionalism. and the photos.
Everyone at Doggy Lama has been so good to my pup, Rosie, since I adopted her over a year ago. Rosie has arthritis so Dorothy takes her to the park to sniff about at her own pace or just lay in the sun. It's clear that she loves her time with Dorothy because she always comes home with a huge smile on her face! Kendrae is super communicative and responsive around scheduling, too. Highly recommended!!
Kasper and I we both LOVE Doggy Lama; obviously for different reasons - Kasper loves the walks, treats and keeping his brain working while practicing recall on every walk. I love it that the Doggy Lama team is super reliable and feels like extended family. After I broke my foot they were able to immediately schedule Kasper for walks every day so I was able to rest. Thank you Team!
Pam has taken excellent care of our two kittens/cats over the past two years. Pam and her team are very personable and attentive, and they clearly love their visitors. The accomodations are clean and comfortable, well-lit, and the windows have great views of trees, bird feeders, and more. Pam sends regular updates and pictures, and is happy to answer any question. Our cats have always come home comfortable and relaxed; obviously well taken care of. We highly recommend Pam and Critter Pet Care for all boarding needs!
🐾 I highly recommend Critter Pet Care. My cat has special needs and they treated him like a 🤴. They knew I was anxious about leaving him and kept me updated daily and even sent pictures. The little 🐈 house has AC and is set up very nicely specifically for kitties.😻 The owner is easy to work with and very accommodating. They take care of 🐕 as well.
I am so happy I found Pam! I met her when I was moving and also going on a trip, meaning maximum cat-life interruption and I was super stressed about how it would all go. She was totally communicative and reassuring while I was away, sending pictures of obviously-happy cats. She has also helped with vet visits and advice. It is so great to work with someone who cares about your animals as much as you do (and knows so much more). My only reservation is about spreading the word so that she might be hard to book! But she deserves recognition for providing such an outstanding and important service.
We had been planning a trip of a lifetime - 7 weeks abroad - and one of the most important things was also one of the hardest things to do and that was to ensure our 1-year old sibling cats, Daisy & Spunky, would be in a secure and caring environment while we were away from home. We found there are many places that board cats in “2’Wx2D’x2H’” stainless steel kennels with 1 or possibly 2 hours of daily “out of the kennel” play time. Although they may be clean and secure, that type of a “confined” environment would have been difficult for our cats to endure even if just for a weekend (especially for Spunky who is very sociable and inquisitive); 7 weeks would have been grueling for them. They would probably be wondering, “what did we do to be abandoned like this?”. Thank goodness we found Pam & Critter Pet Care! The design of the cat house is wonderful and the size and multi-level layout of the kennels, some of which could also be expanded to double wide for bonded pairs like ours, allows cats to “hunker in” and feel secluded, or to peek out through their window for watching birds at the bird feeders outdoors. Cats also get to explore and commingle or just chill in the common areas, or they can trek/jump up to the many perches mounted high along the walls of the cat house. We missed our cats to pieces but really appreciated how Pam automatically kept us updated with photos and info about what they were doing throughout our 7-week trip. It gave us great peace of mind and our reunion confirmed how well they were cared for during their stay. We will not hesitate to leave our beloved Daisy and Spunky in Pam’s care the next time we plan a vacation or require boarding services. Thank you very much, Pam, for providing such an important service, a cozy and engaging boarding environment, and for truly caring about the well-being of our pets. . . you’re the best!
I cannot recommend Pam highly enough for anyone with a pet. I hated to leave my old dog, recovering from an illness, with anyone, but she had come recommended for her transparency. Pam went above and beyond making my dog comfortable and cared for when I had to leave town. When i found I couldn’t get home when I had hoped, she made it work to keep watching him even though his care needs were more than we expected. She let me know how he was doing every day, and was incredibly kind. Pam will always be my first choice for someone to care for my pet.
Critter Pet Care takes excellent care to set an environment that allows the cats to feel at home and loved and for cat parents to feel completely at ease for their care. Pam and her staff are absolutely intuitive in their care for pets. She's personally taught me so much about cat behavior and how to be a better cat companion as a newer pet parent. Thank you for always offering a wonderful home away from home for my cats!
Pam is very professional and knows how to handle both cats and dogs. I had left my two cats with her for a day. She has a very good set up where our cats could feel at home. The cages were set up in such a way that the cats could also look outside at the world or lie in a secluded spot if they wanted. There was even a bird feeder right outside the window, to keep the cats entertained. I definitely recommend her place if you want your cats taken care of while you are on vacation.
Pam is incredible! My rescue pup was isolated for many years and after only a few weeks at daycare, he was much more sociable and calm. He has separation anxiety and has a really hard time being alone, so Pam has been a godsend since I found her about a year ago. She takes really good care of my pup and updates me with pictures and status, which is nice while I'm at work. She is super flexible with drop off/pick up times and always responsive. It's amazing how she is able to socialize dogs with cats, dogs with each others, etc. Also, the backyard is amazing! Huge and lots of room for dogs to play. My pup can't wait to get out there and run around:) Highly recommend Critter Pet Care, Pam is truly a lifesaver.
Pam is a great person, she is extremely responsive, caring and knowledgeable. This place inspires trust! We lodged our dog and cat during one week and they both had a very good time under their care. Pam took me home with my pets the day we checked out because there were no Uber or Lyft drivers available. It was so sweet and kind of her! I would highly recommend this place for cats and dogs. Expect questions about your pet’s health, behavior and a meeting session for dogs.
Pam at Critter Pet Care has been doing a great job for myself and my furry family members. We like to call her Auntie Pam, and she is like a second mother to my young kitties. Along with all of the regular responsibilities of taking care of food, water and litter cleaning, Pam also plays regularly with them (has even bought them some really fun toys and treats), brushes them, and also sends me photos and regular updates when I'm away. She is also willing to water my outdoor patio plants and she brings in the mail. I can be easy in my mind knowing that all will be well at home when I have to be away. Booking and communication has always been easy. I really like using her online portal where I can book and confirm upcoming visits. Finally, when I have last minute changes to my schedule and need to add or cancel visits, she is always willing to accommodate. We are so lucky to have found her and truly appreciate her wonderful care and service!
I first met Monika in the late 1990s when I had a diabetic dog and a cat. She knew what to do with the diabetes, and the dog just loved her. Monika always was there for us when we needed her. Monika took care of our animals till we moved out of her service area. When my favorite dog had a stroke she was at the emergency room with me, and we cried together when the dog passed. If I lived in her service area, I would absolutely have her take care of my animals no matter what. She is dependable and works very hard to ensure the animals get the care they deserve. She doesn’t take every job to ensure that she doesn’t short-change a pet owner.
I use Furry Friends Pet Sitting about once a month and have had a positive experience. Monika is professional, communicative, and demonstrates exceptional flexibility. The small touches (flight tracking, leaving the house cleaner than when I left, occasional pet toys) elevate the experience and are a welcome part of the service. I will continue to rely on Monika and Furry Friends as long as I live in the area.
Monika pet sat for us during our holiday travels and did a wonderful job. She took care of our cats twice a day, fed them per our instructions, played with them, and even purchased toys for our cats! We also appreciated how communicative she was the entire time.
Where do I start!? We’ve been with Monika for almost 2yrs now! And my Fur Babies love her!! Monika is such a perfectionist, attentive, and very detail oriented! Little stuff like bringing in the mail and throwing out the pee pads after she’s changed it! She’s just amazing! My 2 cats don’t feel as stress when I come back home from a trip. Before they wouldn’t eat even after we’ve been back home for a day, till they acclimated to us being back home.. but since they’ve been seeing Monika it’s like we never left for a day or 3 or a week! My German Shepard does not even cry during the night anymore. She gives them allll love equally! WE LOVE YOU MONIKA!
Monika has been taking care of my cat for months now and I feel so comfortable leaving him in her hands! She’s very professional and organized when it comes to scheduling and keeping notes on the care of my cat. Whenever I need to book an appointment, she always gets back to me in a timely manner and without hesitation will make room in her schedule for me. I am also very impressed with her calm and loving energy she gave off to my cat when she first met him. He is usually very shy around new guests in the house, but he came right up to her and they became friends right away. She also took the time to come meet us before committing to watching my cat for the first time. I really appreciated the effort and interest she puts into her work so we would all feel comfortable our first time using her. Every time Monika comes to play with him while I am out of town, she will send me updates to let me know he is doing fine. If you are looking for someone who is knowledgeable, responsible, and genuine with the care of your fur baby... look no further! I am so pleased with the service from Furry Friends Pet sitting and I will continue to use Monika as my cat’s pet sitter!
I can’t begin to preach enough praise for Monika. I’m sure like a lot of people that own animals, you look at those animals as not just animals but a part of your own family. With that in mind, it is hard to trust someone to care for your family the same you would yourself. Well, that was until I met Monika, she has not only cared for the animals but goes above and beyond for them even to the point where she makes me step my game up when I see them after they have seen her LOL. She is punctual, loving and detailed oriented. She has been able to accommodate my family on last minute emergencies as well as planned out vacations! She is the absolute best and I would recommend her services to anyone who loves and cares for their fur babies like a family member!
We have used Furry Friends as our pet sitter for many years now. We first hired Monika to care for our senior (and later, diabetic) kitty when we went on vacation; I wanted someone with the expertise needed to take care of a special needs (and not terribly friendly) cat, and Monika was absolutely the right person. Now she cares for our two younger kitties, and dotes on them like they are her own; they clearly love her back! She also does a marvelous job of taking care of household issues that arise while we are away - and we've had a few doozies - with absolute professionalism. You can be very confident leaving your pets in the hands of Furry Friends. They will be treated like family.
They are amazing! They made an appointment to meet and greet our pups. They asked numerous questions to ensure they had every tid bit of information increasing my confidence in them. Very respectful and accommodating. Highly recommend them for anyone in the area, as they were able to not only squeeze us in for the meet and greet but also squeeze us in almost last minute as their new clients. Definitely recommend them and our pups Apollo and Queenie loved them and will hopefully see them again. The daily updates sent via photos and videos were the extra mile and their photo skills are great too!
Monika is amazing, she watched our elderly grumpy cat for several weeks and won her over in the process. Monika was able to get her to take her medication! Changing methods and trying new tricks I hadn’t considered, Monika was able to stay a step ahead of her. Really appreciated the regular updates and all of Monika’s time, care and attention!!! We are so thankful that we found Monika and you will be too!
I am so thankful that I found Monika and Furry Friends. Monika is not only a consummate professional but obviously a deeply caring person. When your pups are like family it is so important to have someone you trust care for them when you are not home. And not only trusting your special furry friends but trusting someone to be in your home when you are not there is a huge thing. Monika cares about everything. My dogs love having her here. Because she has been a veterinarian nurse I can trust that she knows the nag about my dogs that I don’t even know! She takes care of everything and actually my house looks better when we get home than when I left it. We got text updates while we were gone and I have such peace knowing she is there. I never have to worry at all about how my girls are being cared for. No one besides my family will ever care for my pups when I can’t be with them
We love Puptown for our Jarvis. He is always SO excited when we arrive and happily exhausted from playing all day. We use both daycare and overnights and we always feel confident our baby is in good hands. Also love that they do an initial evaluation to ensure fit and safety. Thanks Puptown!
PupTown is fantastic! I am very glad I found them. My puppy loves coming to daycare a couple times a week, he always plays a lot and comes home very tired, but happy! The staff is great, I love that they work with the dogs to minimize barking and other behaviors. Their facility is also indoors which is very nice!
Many of our neighbors who have dogs, board their canine family members @ Puptown, have for many years, and give Shasta and the entire team, rave reviews. We recently had our giant rescue puppy, Koda, evaluated by Puptown (he passed) and have been having Koda spend some half days, full days, and a few days and nights being boarded at Puptown to get Koda acquainted with the staff, facility, and other pup guests. Koda has had a great time and comes back happy and tired from all of the canine play sessions @ Puptown. We have found Puptown to also be very clean and focused on hygiene, which is great. Thanks, Shasta and Team! You all do great work and provide excellent service.
Our Cattle Dog German Shepard mix, Aviva, has been going here for over a year now. She’s always so happy and excited going in, and happy when we pick her up! It really is a safe space, play place for her! She’s leash reactive while on walks, but at Puptown, she loves to play with all the dogs at all sizes! Her fun and loving personality really comes out :) The staff of course, is always amazing!
Outstanding day care for our Australian Shepherd, she’s been going here for over 2 years once a week and loves it. We’ve boarded her a few times with no concerns. The entire staff is wonderful, caring and loving to all that goes there. Highly recommend this facility for your pets care!
We've used Puptown's services since they opened. They have treated our dogs like family. Its an amazing feeling knowing we have trusted friends at Puptown to take care of our fur babies. Thanks so much to the entire Puptown team!
Just picked Ronny up from his “spa weekend” at PupTown. He just loves it there and enjoys the other dogs and of course all the dog-loving handlers. What a great place — so glad it’s there!
We boarded Nomi here overnight for two nights to spend Pride in the city. She had a great time. We got to see photos of her enjoying the stay and playing happily. Nomi is here often and loves this place like home. Highly recommended for any and all dog care concerns. This establishment is humane, kind, diverse and sincere. We love them. 💖
It was a nice friendly place. My dog seemed to like it. He was only there for 5 hr day boarding. I would like it more if it had an outside play area and/or if it were more spacious.
My dog got kennel cough from another dog after first stay here. It happens, nobody's perfect. But I can't say I trust them to take care of my dog again after this. (And the price doesn't look so great after you add in the vet bills...) Customer service was really friendly and responsive during the evaluation/booking/checkout. Fast, too. They seem pretty flexible if you need that, which I did, but you're rolling the dice on safety.
I'm one of those nut jobs who treats their dog like their child. My dog is literally my everything. I'd be lost without him. 🐾🧸🐕💙🩵 I'd been advised for years now to take him to daycare but was too scared to because of horror stories I'd heard over the years and the costs. Also, because I'm a pet owner who projects their issues of anxiety onto their pet. Naturally, I "knew" Oscar would be anxious. I was wrong. I eventually caved due to some encouragement from a friend and a therapist and finally dropped my pooch off for the evaluation. He did well and I got a kick out of Erin (evaluator/manager) saying he had a "pep in his step." Oscar is in love with this place. He loves the socialization, the nap time, etc. I wish I could afford to bring my dog here everyday that I'm at work. I love that I can check up on him with the cameras except during nap time which forces me to deal with my codependency on him. 😆 They're very detail oriented. They try to label everything with your dog's name, they also put a harness on your dog if he/she is high risk medical, which is comforting to the pet owner, especially if they are neurotic like me. I have a video here of my dog... extremely excited going into Dogtopia. so far so good and when he comes home, he crashes and eats well because all the excess energy is burnt off. He's not doing the zoomies anymore! I highly recommend you take your dog to Dogtopia. I trust them with my dog!!! 🐩 🐶 ❤️
Chico likes it here, he is excited to come. I love all the safety and security procedures. I know my dog will be safe and looked after. Every single thing we request for Chico is remembered and adhered too. Chico stayed here 8 nights, which is the longest I ever left him alone. I would not leave Chico anyplace else. The staff are the best
I adore how welcoming and accommodating the staff at Dogtopia are with our beloved pup Odie. Being a rescue dog, he initially had reservations around strangers and other dogs, but since joining Dogtopia, his confidence has soared. It's heartwarming to see him unwind in the presence of familiar faces each visit, allowing him to truly relax. The ability to check in during the day and witness his playful interactions with both pals and staff is a joy. The flexible scheduling is a lifesaver, seamlessly fitting into my work routine. And those photos they send? They're the cherry on top! That country music-themed snapshot? Pure perfection. It's proudly displayed in our home, immortalizing Odie's spirit in a frame.
It’s pricey to board your dog but it’s the same everywhere else as well. Compared to other spots I like that the dogs get social times with humans and other dogs for most of the day. No other place in the area offers that. So for the price you pay I believe Dogtopia is the best bang for your buck.
A great facility and spot to drop off your pup for a day or an extended time “at camp.” The staff is great and often recognize me and my dog, Quinn. She is always so excited to go - I have taken her to other places without the same level of enthusiasm from her. The facility is clean and well taken care of. I’ve since moved out of Dublin to the city, but still bring her one day a week when I go to the office in the area. I’ve also driven all the way from SF to drop her off for boarding stays because I know she is happier here than anywhere else I’ve brought her.
The staff is so incredibly nice and very patient. I feel they take excellent care of Benny during his play days and night boardings and follow all our very specific (sorry!) feedings, medicine, and grooming instructions. I also love we can watch him on camera and we are given excellent feedback on behavior (which we asked for) as Benny is still learning his social manners. We think Dogtopia is so highly regarded in our socialization/play/care for Benny that we go out of our way to travel just to use their facilities despite there being daycare/boarding facilities closer to our home. We couldn't ask for a better place to take our Benny boy and are so happy with our experiences! Thank you Dogtopia staff!! Shout out to Amanda, Erin, and Michael!
My Buster is always happy to see his fur friends with a wagging tail when he enters Dogtopia Dublin.
I don't know where to start!! The friendliness of the staff is amazing. Everyone is SO SWEET and nice and so wonderful to my dog. The second you walk through the front door, you are part of the Dogtopia family! I rescued a dog that was not really socialized, so I wanted to bring her to Dogtopia. When I spoke to them, they said they wanted to wait until I had my dog a few months. There is a comfort level for the dog after they realize they have a forever home. I was not happy with that, however, on the 3rd month they reached out and I brought my dog there. The funny thing is, they were correct. My dog was not ready when I first got her. She is a different dog after going to Dogtopia weekly for the past few months. She loves going there! I watch her on the webcams (when I remember) and to see how great the people who are in the areas with the dogs are. It's such a relief because I don't worry at all about my dog when she's there. I highly recommend Dogtopia. I am so glad I found them!!!
Everyone here is fantastic! My pup has separation anxiety and they are so sweet with her. They celebrate her small triumphs as much as I do. I can't give them high enough marks or compliments for all they do. I tried 3 other places and settled here as they really seem to care about me and my pup. Best day care ever!
Enzo has been a happy member of the Dogtopia family for three years. The staff, having affectionately nick named him Enzo-Benzo, treats him like their own. Recently Enzo had surgery and was away for several weeks. Each week Erin, Michael or Robyn would call or e-mail to check on Enzo’s status and to send warm wishes for his recovery. It was heartwarming to know how much they cared. We so appreciate the entire staff at Dogtopia and all the services they provide!
