Esther was a true gem while caring for our dog and home. Her son came with her and was also amazing. He even bought me a plant for Mother's Day! She sent me a daily video of Tribble doing various things, which was so helpful since we are rarely away from the pooch and missed her. It looks like she cleaned the whole house before our return. Sheets and towels were washed and put away, beds made. The day of our return our flight was delayed, and they stayed until our return flight (8:45 PM) was loaded and door closed. We are so happy she chose us to be her first sitting engagement, and I highly recommend her. She wasn't feeling well during her stay, so didn't get to do anything fun in our area, so we hope she comes back and includes us in her visit to Davidson County.
Cats: My experience with Mia and Vinny was good, they're lovely but shy. They don't like being pet that much and they're very independent, which made me feel a bit lonely at some points. They're not lap cats but they're still sweet. Lizzy and the house: Lizzy was very nice and welcoming. She made sure I knew everything I needed. The house is 10 mins walking from Queens Road Peckham, which takes you to Tower Bridge in less than 10'. Unfortunately the area is not very nice, even though, I didn't feel unsafe. A small detail, be careful cause most nights there's a fox in the backyard. I don't think he's dangerous but I saw him scaring a few people at night haha
What a perfect location, lovely home very peaceful.
I have nothing but good things to say about the house and pet sit at Mary's house. Themba is simply adorable, calm, friendly and a good companion, I loved taking him for runs in the park, even off leash he has a very good recall. It was a great pleasure having him around while working remotely, he is a great company. Mary and Tim's house is very welcoming, spacious, bright, clean and well organized. The neighborhood is nice and quiet, close to parks, shops, pubs, supermarkets and the city center. Mary gave me all the necessary information for my stay in the house and for my leisure in the city, it helped me a lot. Cambridge is a very charming city, with a lot of things to do and visit, even for those without a car. Mary and Tim were lovely and welcoming hosts, they made me feel at home and I would very much like to house sit for them in the future.
Emily and Mike are lovely people and I’m very thankful I got to spend some time at there beautiful place with the lovely Tex and Dave. Nyon is a special place I strongly recommend visiting, when given the chance. That you Emily and Mike for giving me this chance!
This was a wonderful sit in every way. Hannah and Pete were very welcoming when I arrived, and Callie greeted me with lots of kisses. Their home is absolutely beautiful, light and airy, with lots of space to work or relax. Callie is a real character and an absolute pleasure to look after. I was a bit nervous about letting her off the lead at first but really needn’t have been, her recall is great. The local area is stunning, and we had wonderful walks on the beach and in The Burrows. I’d have loved to stay longer and would happily look after Callie again any time. Thanks very much for letting me stay 😊 xx
Jen and Mark are excellent hosts, and I felt very comfortable with them and in their lovely home. Sophie is the easiest cat ever. The location was terrific for some pretty winter hikes and holiday visits to charming Poulsbo.

Nice people and the dog is always happy to stay (but also happy to leave again. 😁) They also have a nice selection of treats and toys. …
We are so glad to have a safe place for our dog JoJo to have fun and continue growing in her socialization skills. Quarry Dog even provides awesome bonuses like photos/videos, holiday parties, etc. They also have so many goodies in their Treat Boutique and are happy to help make recommendations. The staff is always sweet with JoJo and greet her by name. Highly recommend!
We ordered the most adorable pup toys from this boutique and received a thoughtful personal note from the owner. She carries such unique, high quality and fairly priced items. We especially love the doggy dreidel and Grateful Dead ticket. We can’t wait to order more gifts! P.S. My daughter put the cute stickers on her violin case to advertise here in Colorado. :-)
This is the best place! We love Quarry Dog Daycare, but most importantly our dog does too! Rikki, the entire staff and facilities (inside/outside) are amazing! They don't over book like so many other places in the area and don't over do it on the all the extra immunizations requirements our vet would cringe at.
We bring our Bernedoodle here every once in a while and every time he needs to get groomed, since our groomer is at the same location, K9 design. He goes back and forward between the groomer and the daycare. It’s amazing! We dropped him off in the morning and don’t have to worry about anything. Great people and our dog loves it! They also post tons of photos on their instagram so you can see how they are doing. We have never had any issues with other dogs. The picture is of him at daycare after his hair cut. They have great facilities! Recently renovated and added a store with a bunch of great stuff and treats.
Rikki, Rikki and Rikki! Rikki is so incredibly knowledgeable and helped us navigate raising our first puppy. The Treat Boutique is absolutely amazing. Highly recommend for anyone looking to raise a great dog.
Our dog LOVES Quarry Dog! He is so excited when we arrive in the morning, he doesn't want to leave at the end of the day, and he sleeps well when he comes home!
My pup LOVES it! Staff is attentive and price is fair. I trust them with my pup and that is what matters.
Quarry Dog Daycare is the BEST! I wouldn't send my dog any where else!
BEST daycare in the area! The staff is loving, nurturing and the facility is sparkling clean.
We are thrilled with Audrey. She is reliable and trustworthy. We have one indoor cat, one outdoor cat (who vanishes when we travel), fish and plants. All are always well taken care of, giving us great peace of mind. Audrey does not hesitate to contact you if she has a concern. We had a bad cat fight during our last trip (Feb.). Audrey found blood and fur on the snow on the deck and was worried about our outdoor cat. Fortunately our security cameras captured the fight and our cat was not involved. We were able to share the videos with Audrey so she could also have peace of mind. Our outdoor cat showed up a day after our return looking no worse for wear.
We're so glad we discovered Happy Paws last year. Audrey took great care of our 13-year-old cat while we took a few week-long trips during the summer. Audrey texted updates & photos so we always had peace of mind, especially since Curtis the cat is very social & gets anxious when no one's around. While he doesn't currently have health problems it's good to know she can monitor him when we can't. And based on reviews from her other clients I'm confident she'll handle any such health issues should they arise while she checks on Curtis during our upcoming trips.
We couldn't be happier with our experience with Happy Paws. We utilized their services to help with our elderly cat while we went away for Christmas. Our cat required medications (topical, specialized feedings and oral syringe) twice a day and Audrey was not only reliable and dependable with delivering the meds, but she also sent us some updates with texts and pictures. Audrey was very thorough and attentive from the initial interview throughout the entire process. We highly recommend Happy Paws for your pet sitter needs.
Audrey took fantastic care of our three cats while we were away for a week. She truly loves animals and it shows. By the time we came back, the cats were happy to see us but not desperate to see us - the true sign of a well-cared for cat. We will hire her whenever we are away.
When I met Audrey I was so relieved to find a pet sitter who I could trust with my fur babies. I was disappointed with all the kennels we had tried and was looking for a safer stress free option for my Goldendoodle and Siamese cat. Audrey has been our only pet sitter now for a year and a half. Audrey is great and easy to reach . I enjoy seeing photos or videos of my pets on Audrey's Facebook page. She has also watered my plants and shipped a package to us that we needed. I highly recommend Audrey for your pet sitting needs!
I'm so thankful that I have Audrey to check in on my dog Elvis !! Audrey is visiting Elvis several days/week and she is so patient with him. Elvis is a senior dog that is blind so he can't be rushed while outside or to do anything really, except eating of course :) Audrey is excellent with him and 100% reliable. Audrey is also very good at communicating if there is anything I need to know. Can't recommend her enough to anybody in need of a reliable and very caring dog walker or pet sitter.
I have zero complaints when it comes to Happy Paws Pet Care. Audrey goes above and beyond to meet her customers needs, whether that customer has two feet or four paws. My husband and I are extremely grateful to have Audrey check in on Tsavo and Chloe when we are away from home for long periods of time. I highly recommend this service to anyone looking for pet sitting/walking.
When it comes to pet sitting there is no need to reinvent the wheel! Happy Paws provides exceptional service as relates your pet care needs. We would never again use any kennel service after having our dogs cared for by Audry. They never have to leave our home saving them from the trauma many animals go through when they are dropped off at a kennel when we are away. This is a 5 star service! Greg & Brenda
Audrey is the best. Such a relief to have someone to care for my two fuzzy babies when I'm away. Definitely will book with her again and recommend!
Audrey has been great with our senior cats (who have since passed on) and with our newly adopted one as well. Highly recommended.
Thank You
Nekko has been going to doggie for 4+ years and I’d have to say the community within this establishment is so nice, you can tell the employees and owner truly care about the animals as if they were there own. The office women is also extremely helpful if you have any questions she’s great help! She also let me know when my pup was due for his annual appointment watch was really kind of her to go out of her way to reach out. I can tell my dog loves it here!
Absolutely amazing with my nippy husky! They do great! Get his dewclaws for me and blow him out! So kind and heartwarming experience. Not to mention I see some smaller dogs they did with adorable little bows if my husky could I would but he definitely eat them! My husky is a troublesome boy and isn’t the easiest but every time I pick up he’s always got his big goofy smile. Again thank you everyone at this facility!
Our pups first nights away from home. BJ really took amazing care and you can tell he knows your dog. Highly recommend with no fear at all. Thanks! 🐾 Banjo!! …
I had taken my beagle/lab mix here for 6 months after recently moving to the area. I picked her up from being groomed and realized that she had blood coming from four different nails due to being cut too short. My dog was not wagging her tail or acting like herself for a while after being picked up from this place. She will not let me touch her paws after the appointment this morning. I called to explain the situation and ended up talking to the owner who stated “So I heard Bug had a bloody nail this morning” which very little empathy in his voice. I’ve had other places cut a nail too short every so often, but I’ve never had someone cut 4 all at the same time. After explaining that trimming nails is difficult, he proceeded to say that he would refund me but that my dog would no longer be welcome there anymore. In my opinion, this was not the way to professionally handle this situation and if you do decide to get your dog groomed here, good luck.
Great place to work I was able to work part time and it was a really cool opportunity. I got to learn a lot about the dogs and meet some great people as well. Everyone was really nice and helpful.
We love Doggie in the Window! They have always taken great care of our pup! He loves when he gets to spend time with his doggie friends and is well taken care of.
This place is wonderful! First time here, came in for a nail trim, and our experience was fantastic. Called ahead, took us immediately, and incredibly polite! We will definitely be back.
They are the best! Our dog has anxiety and they are so good with her. She loves staying there. It’s definitely a safe place for her. Grooming is also 10/10
Great haircuts for dogs at a reasonable price (FYI small fee for paying by card but nbd). Very friendly and accommodating staff. They actually listen to how you want your dog to look and change the way they cut if necessary. Call early because they get booked up fast. I’ve never boarded here so I can’t speak on that.
Took my Golden doodle here for a haircut and bath, they did a fantastic job! She needed a short cut and it was blended nicely. She isn't a fan of being groomed but appeared very happy and content with everyone here. Which just shows how well they treat their doggie clients. Will be back!
We absolutely love The Good DoG Spot. All of the staff have loved our pups like they are their own. The facility is always clean and safe for our pup. One of our pups had a serious medical condition and they always accommodated her needs and communicated well with us regarding her days. Up until our sweet girl passed she loved going here. She would wiggle her butt all the way in the door. Our new guy loves his daycare days just as much as our sweet girl did, also does the wiggles all the way in. We are so grateful to have a place to send Comet for daycare and for boarding when we are away that we trust completely. Thank you so much.
Our 2y springer who has separation anxiety has been a fulltime attendee. He is happy and always clean! They have made a few accommodations for him w his issues. We are so happy w his care and they have truly saved our life! We still work fulltime.
They take good care of the dogs they watch. Our dog has been going there for almost a year now. And he loves going there The people who work there are very caring!
We have been boarding and taking our pup to daycare at The Good Dog Spot for the last couple of years and couldn't be more pleased! The owner and the staff all do a great job and are super responsive and flexible. They all really seem to like dogs and are knowledgeable about them as well. The system for reserving boarding is easy and quick. Our dog loves the days that he goes for daycare and comes home happy and tired from all his fun. I also appreciate that they keep us up to date with news and regarding any paperwork that they need from us. We feel really confident taking our pup to The Good Dog Spot. We know he is safe, happy, and well cared for!
Unbelievably great staff at the Good Dog Spot - all of the employees are amazing, special shout out to Lauren! We have been customers for several years for both day care and boarding and have nothing but amazing things to say about how much our beagle Daisy loves this place. We have recommended GDS to several friends and are so glad we discovered this gem. It's always clean, smells fresh, and offers lots of activities inside and out for the dogs. The staff are all professionally trained and genuinely show a love for dogs.
We’ve had great experiences having our dogs groomed here! Super nice, professional, and helpful staff, and even helped us find a sooner appointment that we needed. Artemis & Apollo looked & smelled great after their time at The Good Dog Spot 👌🏼 We will be back! …
Great dog spot @ the Good Dog Spot. Employees treat and know the dogs very well. Facility is clean. The open environment assures that dogs get plenty of exercise, while also supervised (getting human attention, too). When I pick up my dog, she's happy, healthy & exhausted.
My dog has come to the Good Dog Spot for both daycare and boarding since he was only a few months old (he’ll turn 3 soon) and I’m pretty sure he would live here if I let him. As soon as the building comes into view he starts freaking out with excitement and nearly tears my arm off trying to get inside as quickly as possible. The staff is all very friendly and anytime I go away I have peace of mind that he is happy and well taken care of.
My black lab Juno has been going to The Good Dog Spot for years, from training, day care, boarding to play groups and grooming. The staff are excellent and it has been a great experience! Juno loves her home away from home!
I feel like my dog is the mayor of The Good Dog Spot. We love it for daycare and boarding.
"Gina took care of my 5 Mini Daschunds when I went away. I've never left them in someone's care like that, but I felt completely at ease with her caring for them. I would highly recommend Gina if you ever need a pet sitter. I will definitely be using her again!" ~ Julie S.
