What a lovely cat and home! Sue is a great communicator and made sure I had everything needed to take good care of Pearl, who is adorable, friendly and easy-going! I felt very comfortable staying there, and would highly recommend Sue, Pearl, and the neighborhood.
I was so lucky to have Roo and Tam's cats Gris and Brad as my first European housesitting assignment. They are the nicest friendliest kitties with the loudest purr. They are super easy to take care of and were great companions. The apartment is beautiful, spacious and modern, and has all the amenities. It is a short walk to trams and Montpellier center. I had a very enjoyable and comfortable stay. Thanks for having me!
Housesitting for Olly & Sophie was fabulous! The house was located in a great spot, walking distance to so many different parts of Copenhagen. The home was cozy and a great place to stay for two weeks. Lars loved cuddles, his walks and had such a funny little personality. He was fine when left at home during the day when I was out exploring! I would definitely love to return in the future :)
This was one of the most enjoyable pet sits! Andrew and Hillary were very kind to me and easy to communicate with. The house is in a great quiet and safe area. The cats are super sweet and very low maintenance. I loved spending time with them. The house itself is wonderful, extremely clean and comfortable. Would love to pet sit again!
We were welcomed by Reichel and Dutch, they are warm, friendly, accommodating and great communicators. They even left us hot cross buns and Easter eggs over the Easter stay. Rusty and Trixie are a delight, they accompanied us everywhere on the farm, to feed the chickens and collect the eggs. They loved lots of pats and ball games; both are so well behaved. The 2 horses, 3 ponies and chickens are all self-sufficient. Reichel is a great communicator, advising us on local places to visit and see. Thank you Reichel and Dutch for a wonderful stay.
Paige is a great person and was very responsive via both THS and text. Cute and comfortable house in a neighborhood that is very easy to walk. Buddy & Stevie are awesome, loveable dogs who stayed/followed me all of the time. They don't bark often they know their names and respond positively to verbal commands. I would definitely do this sit again if the opportunity arises.

My job has me travel alot. I recently moved from AZ to NV and I didn't have a pet-sitter for my tortoises. I needed to go to Ca for training and Terrell was very respectful when I first messaged him asking if he would watch after my pets for the day until I got out of work since I couldn't check into my hotel until later in the day, and ai didn't want to leave them in the car while I was at work. They pet-sit for dogs, do require proof of vaccines, and would appreciate at least a couple of days notice so they can rearrange their room for the other pets being boarded. The business is run from their home, and they allow the other dogs being boarded to roam with each other, so they aren't caged up in a kennel all day. The day I stopped by they were watching over a newborn puppy along with about 5 other adult dogs. In the past they have watched after birds, but he mainly specializes in dog care. However he will watch over mostly all pets with enough notice. Keep in mind this is a personal, and private pet care service not your typical big franchise or well known business therefore, it is not going to involve any paperwork, and you do pay by cash. In order to know the cost all you do is contact him via his website by researching the name of the business and the option to message him comes up. When I asked for a quote he was pretty responsive, I messaged him around 6:00pm as I was leaving that next day, he got back to me around 8:00pm. If I remember correctly you could also pick up your pet at 11pm as that is the time they close their doors for the business, but you may notice that they do get antsy if you tell them a time, and aren't there minutes before, so you may hear from them via text when time gets closer to the expected pickup time. Otherwise, they seem to care after the pets kindly and are open to following instructions on feedings, pet care, or medications if needed. Best of all they surprised me with a couple of images of my pets while I was at work, as you can see my male tortoise dirtied up his water soon after they gave it to him.
We are really thankful for TJ service. After a last minute call he accepted both our dogs and was patient enough for both. He updates us everyday, highly recommended.
I took my two dogs to Tj's All Per Care for three weeks stay. Terrel went way beyond what he was asked for. He took a good care of my dogs, he kept me informed with daily messages of the dog's activities, he fed the dogs as he was asked. I'm very happy with Terrel's service and honesty. I would definitely trust my dogs to Terrel again
Great place! this was my dogs first time with a boarder and he definitely benefited from it. I was out of town on a work trip for 3 weeks and I didn’t want my dog to be in a kennel majority of the day so this was a perfect fit for us along with becoming more social with dogs. He went to the park everyday and TJ also sent me at least 2 pictures everyday and answered any question I asked on my pup. After I picked up my pup he has been sleeping wherever he can, definitely not the last time we’ll be using his services.
TJ runs his service like a business. We were especially impressed with his professionalism, foresight, and experience. While watching our dogs we encountered an unforeseen travel situation that he was able to accommodate with no issues. The entire time we felt completely comfortable and safe with him watching over our dogs. He provided daily photos and updates on how they were doing. We would definitely go back to TJ and recommend him to anyone looking for a competent, communicative, and professional sitter.
Terrell did an amazing job with my 7 month Doberman. We were in a last minute bind and Terrell was able to take him the day of AND keep my dog for 4 days. Terrell really does know how to handle all of the different personalities which is very important when you have a large dog with a lot of energy and separation anxiety. I noticed that when I picked my dog up that he was calm and leaning against Terrell as we were talking. We were very Appreciative of Terrell's flexibility and Happy with the state of our dog upon our return. We will be returning with no doubt!!!
TJ went above and beyond to accommodate us as we were moving from Japan to Fairfield. He has the most flexible hours for drop off and pick up and is reachable by phone at almost all hours. My dog has never been happier when boarded...probably because she is not locked in a concrete run/cage, instead, she is hanging out in a comfortable home! My dog was due her monthly preventative medication and TJ ensured she received. He takes all his boarding dogs to the local dog park and keeps them actively engaged with other dogs, toys, treats, and human interaction. TJ sent us daily photos/updates and it's clear he loves our dog almost as much as we do. I will be using his service again and again. In fact I'm hoping he will do some doggy daycare too!
TJ is Awesome! Knows how to handle and treat dogs, I have a old German Shepard and a old Jackussel mix. Both dogs came back happy and healthy. TJ takes them to the park, plays with them and let's the do what they want. He is very professional, polite, super responsive to calls and texts and sends pictures to you 2 time a day of your pet. I will recommend TJ to everyone!
It's a great place! It was my dogs first time with a boarder and he difinitely loves it. Tj takes him to the park everyday along with other dogs so this was perfect so he can be more social with other dogs. Tj also sent me 2 pictures everyday. If anyone looking for a sitter, I highly recommend " TJ's All Pet Care Service" Thanks Tj!!!
TJ did a wonderful job taking care of my older labrador! I was in need of last-minute pet care for a day trip for work, and was SO grateful that TJ was able to keep my sweet old dog entertained while I was away. (He even sent me a nice picture of all the fun they had at the dog park!) My dog is pretty energetic and extraverted for an old dog, and he came home super happy and exhausted -- I think dogs that like to run and play with other dogs will have a wonderful time with TJ.
We are so glad to have found Namrata. Our dog stayed for 2 weeks. We got multiple pictures of her having a great time. Namrata was super communicative via text. She got daily walks and socialized with other dogs and humans. It was a huge relief to know that my doggie was living the good life while we were gone! I highly recommend happy pets and namrata!
We boarded our two year old rescue pup while we went to Vegas. The beginning was rough for our doggy because she was in a new environment and has anxiety. Namrata worked with her tirelessly, and after the first night, she was doing so much better. Namrata sent us updates, pictures and videos and set our minds at ease. This is the first time we’d used a boarding service and we will be returning whenever we need puppy care. Her rates are reasonable and the dogs have free access to the backyard as well as regular walks. We are very happy customers.
I’ve used Namrata three times now for all-day Doggy Day-Care and she has been wonderful with my fur baby! She’s sent me photos and updates, and the last time I pulled up to her home for drop-off, my pup was whining with excitement to enter!! Thank you Namrata, for all your love and care!
Namrata has taken care of Millie (my 3 year old doodle) for both dog day care and dog boarding. I have been dropping Millie off with her and her family since September 2023. Millie is always excited to see her when I drop her off. Namrata is very responsive and always provides picture updates. Her son and Millie have become best friends. I am so happy that I have found an amazing dog sitter for day care and dog boarding. This lets me go on my trips and into the office without worrying about her. I would definitely recommend Namrata for dog day care and boarding!
We have been very pleased with Happy Pets. She is very organized, and quick to answer by text for bookings, pick up time, etc. She will forward pictures to you during the time you are away from your dog if you request, and our small dog, Lola has always seen very well cared for. Lola can be temperamental, and whiny, and may not be the easiest dog to take care of, but Happy Pets has always done a great job of providing great care for Lola and understanding she is who she is.
Namrata did a great job boarding our 5.5 year old Jindo. She sent pictures and updates every day, making us feel comfortable being away from our pup. We would happily board our dog with Namrata again :)
Happy pets dog boarding is amazing!! They take the best care of my dog - lots of attention and walks and love. I can tell that my dog loves going there and it gives me great peace of mind to know that my dog is so well taken care of when I am out of town. Also , they are great at communicating- lots of pics and updates when I am away and scheduling the pet sitting has always been very easy. I feel lucky to have found them!
Namrata and her family took such great care of my dog Allie for one month. My initial plans for a dog sitter unexpectedly fell through, but on very short notice (just a few days) I was able to find Namrata who thankfully was able to take care of Allie for the whole month. I received photos and video and it was clear that Namrata, her family and her dog Albus were bonding with Allie and that she was very well taken care of. I’m thankful I was able to find Namrata and now feel confident that I have an excellent dog sitter for any travel in the future. I highly recommend her services.
Namrata is simply THE BEST!! If I could give her 10 stars, I would! My fur baby, Remy, has major separation anxiety. I was so worried about leaving him, as we've never left him with anyone! He's a 6 year old Frenchie and requires a lot of attention, exercise, and LOVE!! Thank you so much, Namrata!! Remy made new doggy friends, and was a happy boy during HIS 6 day vacation!! Daily fotos great communication! If you want the best care for your fur babies, look no further!! ❤️❤️❤️🐕👍🐈⬛
Namrata took great care of my pup during his stay there. She sent me pics everyday to keep me posted, and also hand fed my dog when he had low appetite. My dog came back home happily, indicating that he had a great time there! Thank you for your care!
Stacy is ABSOLUTELY the most caring, thoughtful and thorough pet sitter that we have had! We have had overnights with many steps that our pups need (dog mom imposed I guess!) and Stacy never said anything was too much. Rather, Stacy understands that dogs are our kids - and they deserve the best care and love. She has a ton of affection and patience even for our “problem child” and loves all animals no matter their personalities. In a world where it’s so difficult to find pet sitters that really go the extra mile and not have to worry about anything - Stacy is a god send! I would highly highly recommend Stacy for any pets large or small, shy or extroverted. Thank you Stacy for adding a ray of sunshine, warmth and unconditional love into our fur babies lives!
Stacy is the best! Professional, hardworking, reliable, and, just as importantly, so sweet and friendly. She truly loves your dog as her own! My boy Shadow is obsessed with her. They hit it off immediately, and it was such a relief to know he was in good care during an extended vacation of ours. I think he was so comfortable and having such a blast with Stacy, he was almost disappointed we came home 😆
Stacy is the best, and our senior dogs (17 and 15 year olds) absolutely love her! I don’t think I trust anyone with our fur babies as much as I trust her! She’s also very flexible and charges more reasonably compared to other services out there.
Can’t say enough about how great Stacy is with my two senior fur babies! She visits with them while I work, and also takes excellent care of them when I go out of town. Stacy sends plenty of updates and pictures, which is very important to me, since my pups both have health issues. She clearly loves pets and I feel like I couldn’t leave mine in better hands. I wholeheartedly recommend Stacy!
I could take about how amazing Stacy K is ALL day. My husband and I have 3 dogs, and have always struggled to find good a good sitter for them in the past. When we met Stacy almost 2 years ago, our dogs have never received better care, and we have never felt so stress free while leaving town because we know that our babies are in the best hands. Stacy makes sure they get their walks, rain or shine, and gives them so much of her time and love. She is punctual, reliable, understands animals and their behavior, a very good communicator, and has the biggest heart. We trust Stacy explicitly with our dogs, which is not something that we have ever been able to say about any pet sitter before her. She has made our live much better and our trips away more enjoyable ♥️
Stacy is the dogs sitter that we have always dreamed of having! She took such amazing care of our 3 medium/large dogs while my husband and I were out of town for 5 nights. She was very easy to communicate with, kept our pups exercised, and sent me lots of pictures and videos of the dogs which I always appreciate! We would highly recommend Stacy to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
I use Stacy when I am away on vacation. She takes such good care of my dog and gives her so much love and attention while I am gone. She sends me updates and pictures of her and keeps me updated on how she is doing. Stacy loves animals and your pets like her own. I highly recommend her to take care of your babies - they will be in good hands and you can enjoy your vacation without worrying how your babies are doing.
Stacy is AMAZING! Our cats love her and she does a great job taking care of your home and pets while you’re away. Next time you plan a trip, call Stacy and don’t stress about your home and pets!
Stacy was the absolute best! We feel so assured and at ease with not only the care of our beloved furbaby, but also the safety of our home in Stacy’s care while we’re away. Safety is of optimal importance for us with home care. Stacy goes above and beyond and we are incredibly grateful to her. Prior to finding Stacy, Georgia was often exasperated after coming home from boarding. We figured it was because she didn’t sleep or eat much due to the change of environment. Now that we have Stacy, we don’t have to worry about how she’s faring without us. Our pup gets to stay at home, and she loves Stacy like another family member — and the cost is equivalent to boarding, with individualized attention to our pup’s high maintenance needs. WIN/WIN Thanks Stacy! ~The Ferrara Family
I have been contacting Stacy K for the last 3 years to take care of my Kitties while we go on vacation. She is super sweet she even sends pictures of our fur babies while she sits and visits with them for a while. If you need a pet sitter Stacy is your girl. Great price and super reliable!
The dogs are always well cared for and the dogs play a lot all day long with each other. My dog loves going there because he gets to play with all the other dogs. When I leave my dog there and go out of town, I feel totally confident that he will be taking care of and fed and loved on!
We LOVE Pampered Pets! They take such good care of our little Mochi! She has a blast there. They always post pictures to update us while we are away. All of the care staff are very loving with the pups!
We have been taking our little “Apple” to Pampered Pets for her vacation while we are on ours since she was very young.She loves it. The minute she gets there she runs away her little tail going fifty miles an hour and never looking back. She loves playing with the other doggies and sitting on the owners lap. The facility is spotless. We recommend Pampered Pets without reservation.
I board my dog Paco here and he loves it here. Fabulous staff and always a pleasure to chit chat with the owner, Kathy Castillo.
Wow..perfect place to take your dogs !!! They take such good care of them we will definitely be bringing them back
We took our 2 small dogs there for 10 days and they did very well-the place is clean and the owner is very sweet.
Always feel good leaving my Alonzo with Aunt Kathy and crew.
We recently boarded our German Shepherds here. They were happy and healthy when we picked them up. The staff at Happy Paws even sent us photos during their stay! Thank you Happy Paws for taking such great care of our doggos♥️
One of the only places we trust to leave our slightly reactive dog. It is a bit out of the way for us, but the peace of mind that she will come back exactly as we left her is worth it. She is well taken care of. The photos are a nice bonus
Happy Paws and all its people took amazing care of my older black lab/ husky mix. He had a great time with them. Ive already booked a longer stay in October 2024.
I waited a while and now our dogs have had multiple stays here. Basically, it's wonderful! I've been on three surprise tours and they've all been great! My timid dog has gotten more and more comfortable and happy to get there. We did a few warm up days with him and then overnights before a long trip. My outgoing dog has always just loved it! I love the people there, they always do their very best to help me, 100% of the time. Also, several times I've been there people have insisted on leaving additional tips because they are so grateful to have their dog well taken care of... which I completely understand. Thank you!!!
I recommend Happy Paws Kennels for your fur baby or babies :) The process to check in for boarding was really easy and quick. Plus, they have a new office located beyond the gates, which is always nice because you'll have a chance to see the other happy dogs that are boarded there. They were also very communicative and made it easy for bookings. They also gave me complimentary baths at the end of their stay, which was very nice! One feedback that I would add is that I wish they would send pictures of the dogs as a compliment to the stay. A suggestion for Happy Paws is to provide the options for clients to choose the option of receiving pictures and updates during the stay. I think that will really enhance and add value to the experience. Overall, the experience was great, and my dogs seemed happy.
Boarded my dog here for 2 nights, and it was a very good experience! Friendly, experienced staff. This is a very clean facility and the dogs get plenty of excercise(weather permitting)!
Where to begin…I dropped my dogs off yesterday and my truck decided to just die right then and there. The team was SO fantastic and helpful trying to get it up and going. Above and beyond thoughtfulness. I can’t thank them all enough for the help and genuine concern. Getting to what their business actually offers — Our dogs LOVE it here - we are new to the area so have only done day visits so far, but I am sleeping well at night knowing they are here while I’m away for the first time. I’m so glad we found Happy Paws!! 🐾 thank you for the caring service!
We absolutely love these guys. They took such great care of our puppy baby. She slept for 2 days when we got home from all the fun and exercise she had. We plan on going back regularly. They have great rates and a military discount. Thanks for really taking care of my baby.
A really nice facility with options for a bath! Loved getting clean puppies to take home. Very nice staff, we brought extra bedding, a couple of toys and like that they allow that..
My pet had a wonderful time.. we will use this place again
Cannot express how wonderful this business and its owners are. We've used them a few times for drop in care of our cats while out of town, and have always been impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail, flexibility in requests, and most of all their sincere care of our pets. But this past week, we were absolutely blown away with how over the top Jen went in helping care for one of cats who was diagnosed with renal failure, while we ourselves were going through our own personal medical issues out of town. She quite literally saved our kitty's life by finding a vet ER with space, transporting him to and from the hospital, keeping us in the loop every step of the way. And all with the utmost compassion. She even texted the morning after we were all home to check in. We cannot speak highly enough of this company. Especially Jen. Thank you for lightening our load in the midst of a tough week. Recommend with 10 stars!!!
We are so lucky to have Barking Meow here in town. We have two kitties that needed care for five days. One of them takes a daily pill and for that reason we have not gone on vacation as a family for over three years. We found Barking Meow and for the past five days they took care of our cats with love, kindness, and care. We were able to go on vacation worry free and returned to happy kitties. You guys are awesome and we will go on more vacations now! Thank you!
We absolutely love Barking Meow Pet Solutions. We have a 7 year old chocolate lab that I hate leaving behind but when we must we feel so comfortable leaving him at Barking Meow. We receive daily morning and evening text with pics of Roux on his walks, playing or lounging with his home away from home family. I love that fact that Roux is not stuck in a kennel but with the family in their home where he is spoiled with interaction and love.
Barking Meow Pet Solutions does a fantastic job at caring for your pets. I have never used any pet sitting companies in the past and found them listed in Vacaville's Best, Jen and Brian are wonderful. They set up a meet and greet with you and your pets to go over their routine and any specific needs they may have, very thorough with taking notes and asking questions. What I enjoyed most about their service was the pet check in notifications in which you are able to see time stamped pictures of your pets, GPS location of the visit and can keep track of their water and food being refilled and refreshed as well as the litter being clean. If you are looking for a pet sitting company that will give you 100% peace of mind while you are out traveling, I highly recommend Barking Meow Pet solutions. I will certainly be requesting their services in the future.
Jen and team were amazing and so professional. I cannot recommend them enough! We had just moved to the area when we had to leave our 2 cats. It was so nice being able to leave them in our new home rather than worry about boarding them to minimize the stress/disruption. When we came home, they were both waiting in the kitchen for Jen--and were so disappointed it was US who walked through the door ha! We got pictures and updates every day and they were so kind in bringing in mail/boxes and taking out our trash. Will absolutely use again in the future and would recommend to anyone!
Outstanding service and caring people. I have worked with Jen for nearly 4 years. She has recently expanded her business and her husband Brian joined the team. They are very accommodating and care for my fur baby like I would, which is important to me. Being an owner of a senior bulldog comes with many challenges. Jen and her company ensure quality, knowledgeable, trustworthy and reliable care. She is a life saver helping me with morning walks, check-ins and care regularly and while I am away on vacation. They even have a nice new van equipped with crates to travel safely with your pup. I love their app as well and look forward to pics and updates from their walks. Thank you Barking Meow Pet Solutions!
We have used Jennifer with Barking Meow Pet Solutions for five or more years. The first time we left Maddie, we were concerned about how she would be with a sitter. It's a great feeling to know when you are away that your pet is being cared for like you would. Whenever we are away Jennifer sends us pictures and messages about how Maddie is doing. Jennifer is dependable, credentialed and knowledgeable about caring for pets. We would never leave our Maddie with anyone else. When it's time for drop- off she goes right inside without hesitation like its her second home. They are the best and we highly recommend Jennifer, Bryan and crew!!
I can’t say enough good things about Barking Meow Pet Solutions. We are fairly new to the area and we interviewed a lot of pet sitters. Jen and Brian got to know our two corgis and the dogs just loved them. We left them with Jen and Brian while we went on vacation for 10 days. Our fur babies were walked, fed, and played with and loved. We received pics and updates everyday. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my fur babies. We have even used Jen and Brian for dog walking when our schedule gets packed. They are wonderful and our corgis love them too. S. Brown
We just recently had to board our 3 dogs who have not been out of our care for YEARS. I was nervous how they would respond to us being gone until I had our meet and greet with these wonderful people. They are so caring and welcoming! They have a fantastic set up at their home which makes it that much more easily adjustable for the pups. We got text/picture updates everyday and they are very responsive to any questions I had. We will definitely be using their services again and would 100% recommend them to every pet owner!
Absolutely the best pet sitters! We are so thankful to have found Jen & her team! The service is above & beyond our already high expectations. Their updates & pictures of each of visit warmed our hearts to see the joy they brought into our home. Our pets bonded with them right off the bat & enjoyed every minute of being able to stay in the comfort of their home with multiple visits/walks each day. Medications, special food and crazy rituals were no problem. We now have no worries when having to leave our pets. Thank-you!!
Elizabeth has been our dog walker/pet sitter since 2023. Our dog, Charlie, needs 3 walks a day and Elizabeth takes good care of him. He gets exercise and enjoys time in her company. She is also great when our fire alarms went off in our house during our last trip. She disarmed them and sent pictures. We were happy she was able to take care of the problem. She is a great communicator and I highly recommend her to those who want to leave their animal with a responsible and caring pet sitter!
Elizabeth is a fantastic dog sitter. She is very responsible and reliable. My dogs always seem happy when they are in her care. Much better than leaving them at an impersonal kennel. Zoe and Nacho love spending time with Elizabeth. I would highly recommend her.
Elizabeth has been watching our first rescue dog Nico since we got him in 2021, and now our latest addition, Vinny. As with a lot of rescues, ours had some social/ behavioral issues in the beginning, but Elizabeth is an expert. She knows how to work with and around those issues and also make recommendations. The controlled socialization our dogs get when staying overnight with Elizabeth have been immensely helpful to their training. They come home pooped and happy from all the playing! She also offers reasonable pricing and flexible scheduling. If you’re in the Davis area, highly recommend giving Elizabeth a call.
Elizabeth is awesome, she takes wonderful care of our Jack Russell mix and border collie mix. They always come home happy and smiling and well cared for. She sends lots of pictures to keep us updated and we are really grateful for her skill with the dogs. Our border collie is on medication which Elizabeth skillfully administers and doesn’t always get along with other dogs in our experience, but Elizabeth is so good with her. She always comes home better trained and socialized then we left her :-)
We’ve relied on Elizabeth for years to take care of our pets and house while away. Guinea pigs, fish, dog - she does it all and keeps an eye on the house. We’ve used her for weekends to over a month. Always reliable and responsive. Pets are well cared for and happy. Good value, good and reasonable service. Highly recommended and much preferred to a kennel.
Elizabeth is amazing! She is super reliable, compassionate, and has great attention to detail. She will be able to work with your pets specific needs :) Nova has a great time with her friends! I’m always happy to see pictures, great communication skills!
We heartily recommend Elizabeth’s Pet Sitting. Elizabeth is caring, energetic and dependable. Her program has served us very well living in the URC . When on an outing with Elizabeth our dog Pepper is well-exercised, safe and cared for. And the door to door service Elizabeth offers, picking Pepper up at home and delivering her back- what an easy and convenient arrangement! Both you and your dog will be very happy! She sends great updates and is very flexible with day trips and overnights . Ken and Diane Wagstaff
I've trusted Elizabeth to look after my Labradoodle Molly for nearly six years now, both for dog park visits and extended stays at her home. Molly has always been eager to see her, and I've been so pleased that I've scheduled holidays around her availability rather than consider an alternate dog watcher. I've happily recommended her to friends and family members.
Elizabeth is great. She gets a real feel for what your specific dog needs. We have a high energy breed and he has lots of fun hanging out at the dog park with Elizabeth and her dog pack. I definitely recommend
Elizabeth loves our dogs and cats like they're her own and they are always excited to see her! She sends pictures from the dog park and when she sits the cats she often spends time hanging out with them beyond a standard visit. She was very patient with out dog who is not great with new people and going to dog group with Elizabeth has been great for her self confidence.
Oh.my. goodness.. These ladies are a true gift. 😭 A review cannot express how exceptional their care for our family fur babies was. They respond almost immediately, put in the effort to get to know your pets and your family routine. They just CARE. My male dog is sometimes misunderstood and has trouble forming relationships with others outside of immediate family. Our little family isn't even home from vacation yet. Still I know he has a best friend outside of us! We can't thank them enough. If you need a sitter, walker, cuddler, etc. LOOK NO FURTHER. Thank you so much "Those Dog Gone Girls" 🤗
Joy gave attentive, kind, and reliable care for our baby while we were gone. Scheduling and communication was quick and easy!
I brought my pandemic puppy here for her first time away from me or family. She was there for 10 days and did great. I brought her a few times for day care before so she could get acclimated and I think that helped. The entire dog gone sister’s team was really nice and communicated with me and helped ease my stress of leaving Toffee was so long. I received photos every night and toffee even made it to their ig page. I have already recommended to friends and definitely will bring toffee back for my next vacation but even plan to bring her for daycare every now and then.
Wonderful, professional, courteous and caring. Joy is a joy and came to my rescue on short notice when I sprained my ankle and had no one to help walk my dog. Gladly recommend their services.
My girl dog is scared of people not in her circle and has bad anxiety. It only took Joy 2 visits for them to be BFFs which is shocking to me! This means my girl trusts her, which means I trust her! My old dog takes meds and is blind. Joy really takes care of him. I have no complaints and Joy is the best! PLEASE TRY HER BUSINESS.
Me and my wife both work away from home a few days a week and we needed a daycare for our dog, Apollo. We learned about the sisters through a friend that uses their services and we couldn't be happier! They had us bring him in for a meet and greet, then allowed us to leave him there for a couple hours to see how he got along with the other dogs. They now pick him up early in the morning without us being home and provide email updates with photos once he's in the car for peace of mind. I pick him up on my way home and he's exhausted from playing all day. The arrangement couldn't be better. The sisters and staff are all animal lovers and super friendly. I'll recommend them to anyone that asks!
TDGS are so sweet and really treat your fur baby as their own. They are very patient, my dog is a nervous nancy, but they knew how to handle him and make him feel secure. I don't even need to leash Doc when I pull up, he runs straight the gate and he is always dog tired when he gets home. I can tell after taking him to daycare he is more confident with other dogs and knows how to communicate better. I'm very picky about my pup, I highly recommend them.
Excellent Doggie DayCare My pooch loves it She gets excited when she sees where she is at. The Sisters and their helpers take such great care of her. When she come home, she is tired and ready to relax so I know she has been a busy girl
Those Dog Gone Sisters are an excellent family run business and have done cat sitting for me twice now. I am really happy with the exceptional services they provide. They not only visit and refresh the food and water but also clean the litter boxes and collect the mail. They send daily email updates with pictures of your pets which is such a nice added touch to put your mind at ease knowing your pets are happy and safe. What also impressed me was that they do a meet and greet with you and your pets before taking care of your pets for the first time so that you/they know if it’s good fit. I won’t have anyone else other than Those Dog Gone Sisters take care of my pets when I am out of town.
I am truly Grateful for these two amazing women! When I first met them they where so welcoming and kind my dog immediately felt comfortable and safe when we arrived. I love that they keep you updated and send pictures when your dog stay over night. I felt comfortable leaving our dogs with them❤️ I definitely recommend those dog done sisters for your pet.
Amazing people who do a great job taking care of their puppy guests!
Swell guy and good neighbor
Great, affordable kennel with knowledgeable and caring owner. Steve knows a lot about dogs and knows how to take care of their individual needs. He’s experienced with dogs who don’t board well and is attentive to their care. Couldn’t be happier with the price as well since boarding kennels are normally incredibly expensive.
The kennels are very nice and the dogs are adorable. The training is amazing. My puppy went and came back as a sweet, calm and cute pup.
Prior to dropping off my two fur babies, I was able to reserve a kennel and coordinate a date/time to drop them off 2 weeks in advance. They offer military discount which saved me a few extra dollars! Although the location is a few minutes out of my way, it was worth the drive. My babies were well fed and taken care of.
I boarded my dogs without checking the place beforehand. When I came to drop them off I was too anxious to leave my 3 dogs cause the place was far from what I expected according to their website. I trusted to sign up cause the ranch looks nice with the water and he is a dog trainer too. Kinda made me feel confident my dogs will be in good hands. Never saw Steve in person though I spoke with him on phone and he seemed nice. The caretaker I met at the boarding is also a nice man. Assured me my dogs will be taken care of. I was skeptic coz the kennel was wet and all the dogs there seemed to be uneasy barking too much. It was clean but wet. He said dogs won’t be walked. Would just stay on their cages. I felt bad for my dogs all 4 days I was on vacation. When I got them, they were thinner, obviously stressed. The youngest of them was too scared he was hiding under that platform were they sleep. I was relieved nothing is as bad as I am anxious of. I mean, they will keep your dogs, feed them & clean their kennels but your pets would feel like they’re in prison. I won’t go back even if they just mean business. I would look for more care & love for my babies.
Our dogs love Steve!! Steve always makes sure we are taken care of!! Even with last minute plans, or delayed returns, he has no issue with keeping our fir kids. We now even travel over an hour just to keep the dogs boarded with him!!
Very reasonable owner. He offered to out my.two dogs in one cage, I save money (30 insufficient 20). 20 per day is a great deal. Owner gives food for no charge. Good place with great ventilation. It is a experienced dog trainer as well.
Steve is a great 'old school' dog trainer that doesn't only train your dog but he actually takes the time to train you! (Me) my Chessie Blu is getting better and better as we go thru training together. Thanks Steve!
I used to bring my dogs there- I brought them there only cause of the price- they always came back skinny- and happy to see me. I found a new place that charges a bit more but he love it- he cannot wait to go in the back to see all of his friends. Steve is nice - but I feel it is nothing but a sales pitch- I don't feel my dogs were happy- if you want to save money that it the place but if you want your dogs happy I would aviod him. Ask you dog if they are happy animals can talk btw- they will tell you if they are happy or not. I only pay 4 dollars a day more for my dogs to be happy.
One excellent place to get your dogs trained. Proprietor is a great guy, very knowledgeable and personable
They were able to provide boarding on short notice which was great. The owner was very friendly and provided great care for my dog.
Happy and pleased with their service. Staff is polite and responds to emails effectively. Great prices and my dog did not seemed as stressed out on our ride home back from pick up.
We have taken our dog here 3 seperate times now and they always are excited to see him. You can tell the people that work here love and care about the animals . Office staff is very quick at responding as well.
Amazing people. Amazing experience. We responded to a post for a rescue beagle ready for adoption. You can tell this dog has been well taken care of. He was full of life when we met him... running around and happy. He smelled and looked very clean... they even had a special collar to help him... (I was told it lets out hormones to help him calm) OF COURSE we adopted this lil guy, he fit so well in to our family, it was a perfect match. But we really noticed how good Happy Campers Boarding Kennels is after the second day of having him. It was obvious they showed this puppy love, and they took the time to train him... he was well cared for and very responsive to us. I want to thank Happy Campers for giving us joy and allowing us to have this wonderful addition to our family. If we need kennel service, I know we would not have to ever worry if we bring our doggies here. I also love the piggies and donkeys and the furry cow!!!
The staff are awesome and are experts in keeping their furry boarders safe and comfortable. We have boarded our dog here at least three times already and each time, they took very well care of our little fur baby. Very much recommended!
I had my two cats stay at Happy Campers for about a week and they were great. My cats weren't overly stressed and loved the people who worked there. The people were very helpful and understanding of our needs and made the whole ordeal easy for this anxious cat mum. If we need to board our two cats again we will definitely choose this place .
We recently boarded our dog at Happy Campers over Thanksgiving and he came home with a severe case of kennel cough, despite being fully up-to-date on all his vaccinations, including Bordetella. The staff are very friendly, but unfortunately, we will not be using their services again. Quick Update: I attempted to reach out to Happy Campers by phone and email to alert them to the kennel cough situation. It's been 8 days since my email, and no one even bothered to respond. Which just goes to show how little they actual care about the wellbeing of your pet and the safety of their facilities.
We have been boarding our dogs with Happy Campers for YEARS!! Staff is excellent, our dogs come home FIT, and I can't thank y'all for the 💵💵 discount! We will continue trusting the care of our pets to HCBC for the long term future!!
If Happy Campers is full, I stay home with my dogs. They care for my babies like their own. I have dogs with special needs and they make the needed accommodations. They are very good at communicating anything that comes up while my babies are there.
We are so thankful to the thoughtful and amazing people at Happy Campers Boarding Kennels. We needed some help during our travels from NC to get treatment for our daughter and Happy Campers gave us invaluable assistance and peace of mind. We highly recommend them and we are so grateful for for these kind and thoughtful people.
Super great and knowledgeable staff. We leave our Belgian Malinois with them and he loves it there. Place is good for high energy working breed dogs but it’s a busy kennel so book early. Cannot recommend this place enough.
