I had a terrific and relaxing time spending a few days with Jack the cat, Maverick and Rori. I was snapping pics throughout the entire visit because they are so cute together. They are great company while cuddling up in the living room and on the deck in the sun while watching the many hummingbirds zip by! Greg and Samantha have a beautiful home in a great subdivision. They are very easy to communicate with and left clear instructions (both typed out and in the welcome guide) on each of the pets in addition to walking me through their routine and showing me where things are located. Samantha went out of her way to make me feel very welcome and appreciated. I highly recommend this sit and would sit for them again in a heartbeat!
I loved staying in Zoë and Wes’ home and looking after Diego. It’s very cosy, clean and beautifully decorated. They also think of the little things to make sure you are all set up and have everything you need. Diego is a character, very low maintenance and loves his food. The location is nice and quiet and safe, and only a 15min walk into town where there’s car hire (if you need) to explore the Peak District, and some nice bars and restaurants (I really liked the Picturedrome). Highly recommend.
Meghan and John’s home is a work of art with incredible views. We quickly became friends with Bernoulli, who has the personality of three cats! ;-) He was lots of fun to hang out with and easy to care for. He also cuddled with us every night which was very cute. We really enjoyed getting to see so much of NM from their very comfortable and thoughtfully appointed home, and Meghan left helpful home instructions along with very useful recommendations of things to do in the area. We can’t recommend it enough!
Housesitting for Katharina was great. Communication was fluent and easy from the first moment. We did a video call to meet each other and it was like speaking to a friend and then it kept like that during the sitting. Valerie and Victor are both lovely cats and easy to take care of. They were shy and a little bit scared at the beginning and then they started to feel more confident and come to us for cuddles and play. The apartment is perfect, very well equipped and in a perfect location with a beautiful view of Paris. It was like a dream to wake up every day with the Sena view. It was a real pleasure to do this sitting 🙂 Thank you Katherina for giving us the opportunity of staying two weeks in Paris surrounded by the love of Victor and Valerie.
I had a great time in Olbia. Susannah is a warmhearted, helpful and kind person , from the moment we met I felt like visiting a friend. Her home and pets are wonderful it was so easy falling in love with the little family members. Daisy, Twister and Dukey are so easy going and loving pets. Even though Susannah was busy she took time to explain everything with house and pets, made a stop at a grocery store and even showed me the town. We went to the dog beach and spend a nice day together. She also helped me with leaving Olbia and organised a driver. I appreciated the good communication between us especially from apply to arrive in Olbia. I had such a great experience and would love to house sit any time at Susannah and Jeremy's place.
We had a great time sitting for Eirish and Rocky’s cats who were very chill and entertaining. These little guys have great personalities and we really enjoyed getting to know them during our stay. Eirish and Rocky have an amazing place with a great set up for work from home and are located near some great restaurants. They were awesome hosts and we were so happy

I am so thankful for this service. I could tell from the "meet and greet" that Dawn and her family were going to be wonderful with Dolly and give her lots of attention. We had left her at a kennel one time and she came home depressed for a few days. When we picked Dolly up from Dawn, she was her normal, happy self. I could tell that she was comfortable staying there and I am sure they took great care of her. We will definitely use this service again.
We love Shagri-La Pet Resort! My dogs, Patrick and Magnolia actually run out of the car and into the building just to see everyone. They LOVE the girls!!! When we pick them up they smell amazing from their baths and they are very happy! When Hurricane Milton happened, we didn’t have power and we had to leave our home. We didn’t have any other option. Their team took in our dogs and made sure they were safe, even though they were also going through their own issues during the storm. We are so grateful for their service and the amount of care they put into their business. My mom also brings her dogs there and loves them! Highly highly recommend!
My puppy stayed at this resort for a week when I dropped her off she was so nervous but when I picked her up she was so happy you can just tell she had an amazing time and she loved everyone, she was very happy going up to the staff for pets, we will be back for any future boarding. Thank you for being so awesome!!
We have left our 2 German shepherds with Shangri-La a bunch of times, and every time, the pups are happy! The girls working there are amazing, sweet, and you can tell they love the pets they care for. Best place around for sure! Kona, Kratos and family thank you for your kindness, and recommend them to everyone!
Our pups boarded for a few nights with Shagri-La and came home very happy. I wish that I could leave them a 5 star review however, the owner took it upon himself/his staff to not stick to the one thing we asked them not to do during our pets stay. Our Dalmatian has been VERY food aggressive with our smaller dog in the past. We asked upon making the reservation if he could be separated for meals and were told it was no problem. When we dropped them off, the owner seemed to be slightly annoyed that we were asking for him to be separated at meal time but said he would give him 15 minutes to eat then take the food up. When we picked them up I asked how their time there had been. The owner stated it was good and said “the Dalmatian isn’t as food aggressive as you might think. We left the food out for them and they did great.” I am extremely thankful that nothing happened but am very upset that they took this risk without so much as a phone call to us. We have had our Dalmatian since he was 8 weeks old and know our dogs well. This was not a decision that should have been made by a boarder and because of this we will never use Shagri-La again.
Jeff and his team are the BEST!! My pup has been going there for 5 years and when we turn down the bumpy road, he gets super excited. I hate leaving my pup, but I’m so thankful to have such a great place to care for him when I’m gone.
Excellent place! This is going to be the only kennel I bring my GSD moving forward! She came home very happy! I paid extra for a couple of swims, which she loved, and I was also impressed by the bath she was given. Very large kennels, very clean, and friendly staff.
Really cared for my dog when I had to go away and I've used them numerous times and they are always friendly and very reasonable
First boarding experience anywhere with our career changed guide-dog pup so I was a bit nervous. All in all, he came home safe and happy as a clam. The rates are reasonable, the building looked super clean and the staff was incredibly friendly. What more could you ask for?
This place is nice. I felt very comfortable leaving my one year-old rat terrier here I dealt with Jeff he was very nice and accommodating explained everything what I loved about the place is my dog was in her own safe space always I didn’t have to worry about her getting attacked. by any other dogs when they let them out individually, they can run and play and still see the other dogs in their own space I highly recommend this place.
Even though there was a mix up with the reservation, they were gracious enough to board my Auggie. He also got a nice bath before coming home at a very reasonable price. I will recommend.
Deb has been my dog sitter for two years now. She has always been attentive to my Gingers needs. Her service allows my pet to stay at home in a secure environment when I travel. I highly recommend her services.
Debra watched my two cats while I was gone for a very long vacation at Christmas time. She answered messages very quickly and sent photos for my peace of mind. I am definitely a worrier when it comes to leaving my pets, but I didn't worry at all with Debra taking care of them! I highly recommend Debra for a pet sitter; she will follow instructions perfectly and keep you updated regularly.
Deb has been a savior for Que and I! With a busy and sometimes unpredictable travel schedule, I can always rely on Deb to be there when needed. From daily visits to overnight stays, she has us covered. Reliable, friendly, and caring, I cannot say enough good things about Deb and Fun Dogs Galore. Very, very happy with all the help that she has provided to us since we were introduced and I feel very safe while I am away. Thanks!
I feel so comfortable with my pups in Debbie’s care! She is very kind, loving, and experienced! I highly recommend her service for your fur babies! They will be in great hands while under her care ❤️
Genuine caring Dr and staff. Always feel so trusting in their care and services. We have used this location since their opening and often share our good experiences with others. Sarah and Dr P are gems!! They care for your dog as if it was their own. DiMaggio approved! Enough said.
Tito always loves visiting pet paradise. The staff of always very attentive. Recently we had a death in the family and Tito was experiencing a lot of grief and not eating properly when I am not around. The staff follow my exact instruction and made sure he was eating. Showing him extra attention and giving him the comfort of what he needs. When I picked him up, he seemed to be very well taken care of and explained his full eating schedule of when he passed up a meal and they made sure to give him a re-feed later in the day to assure that he got all his meals and nutrition in.
My German shepherd had the best time! The only complaint I had is that he came home limping. After bathing and looking at his back paws I noticed both rear paw pads appeared to be burned or cut to raw skin. NOT knowing about astro turf, this should have been communicated when making the appt. Had I known that this would happen, I would have only let him stay a few hours. Now my very active dog can bearly walk until his paws heal. Upon calling the next morning Gee Gee explained that astro turf can be rough and that they usually put Mushers on the paws.. but that wasn't the case with Koda.. A sign at the reception area would have been helpful!
Dropped off two happy and healthy dogs and picked up two happy and healthy dogs. Couldn’t ask for more than that! The staff was excellent and we loved being able to check out the cams to see how the pups were doing. It’s a huge relief to know that we have somewhere safe that we can trust to take care of our dogs while we’re away.
DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG HERE if you have an anxious baby. I have a German shepherd that loves to play with other dogs but is very vocal. I take him to the park and he plays with my mom’s 5 lbs puppy and other big dogs on the regular. He is quite literally a gentle giant. But because of the way these people “introduce” dogs to others he’s been deemed unfit for Group play. Might I add he’s been to 3 other daycare/boarding facilities that he is able to play freely in groups with zero problems. He has even been used in a trial with another dog that was new coming in. We even showed them multiple videos of him playing at parks and in another boarding facility with 10+ dogs. After telling them that he won’t react well with how they introduced him the first time, they proceed to do the standard “introduction” (if that’s what you want to call this) and put him on a leash behind a fence with a group of loud dogs on the other side of the fence…… huh??? How would your dog react to that if they are vocal and feel threatened?? Unprofessional and very disappointing. The fact that large dogs get discriminated against when they are vocal is really sad. My dog is literally the biggest lover.
Great place , fully staffed.finally found a place where my baby is well taken care of and gets to play with other dogs , he falls asleep right away when I pick him up after work, so I know he’s a happy pup. Excellent staff! Great communication with their customers
Buyer beware! If I can give this place negative stars I would. This place has obviously gone downhill. I usually don’t comment on these forums but this struck a nerve. It has been three weeks since our dog has been with PetParadise and just now we are getting her back to normal. She went in healthy and came out with two massive ear infections and bacterial skin infection. So, after $1500 of vet bills and care we have decided to never take her back to this establishment. You’ve been warned.
I’m new to the area and wanted to be familiar with good boarding. Because my dog is a very healthy and playful 15, he was basically not welcome because of his age. Even though this place is quite expensive we were willing to give it a chance. The vet on duty made it clear they were not an animal hospital. Not very professional.
I just love Pet Paradise and the staff is so very friendly. They treat the pets so very special and it’s the perfect name because Paradise it is I love the feeling when I walk in actually I love the feeling when I’m first driving up and I see the place I love it When take my dog any other place I don’t live close. I found this place about three months ago and I don’t mind traveling to take my dog there. It’s an awesome place. I recommended highly very clean. Staff is professional awesome and I love my dog she’s terrific. Blessings to them all . 💯👍🏽🙏🏽😍
Enzo loves his friends at Pet Paradise. We know he is always in good care while he is there for day camp! He gets so excited when we arrive. We trust everyone at Pet Paradise with our Enzo!
We recently left our fur baby, Leo, with Walter & Jillian for 12 days while we left for our honeymoon. We’ve never left Leo for this long, let alone had him stay at someone else’s house. We were nervous of course. However, the first day we met Walter & Jillian we knew he would be in great care. Walter & Jillian treated Leo as their own. They took such great care for him. We had no worries on our trip and I genuinely believe Leo had the time of his life with them. They sent us photos throughout the stay and Leo had the biggest smile on his face. We are so happy that we found Fetch! Leo is so happy too. 😊
I cannot speak highly enough of Fetch! Pet Care of Sarasota and their exceptional cat sitter, Richard. We recently had to leave town for a week-long trip to Alabama and were fortunate enough to hire Richard through Fetch! to take care of our beloved fur baby, Gunner. From the moment Richard stepped into our home, we knew Gunner was in great hands. Richard's passion for animals was evident as he greeted Gunner with genuine warmth and affection. It was heartwarming to see how quickly Gunner took to him. Throughout our vacation, Richard went above and beyond to ensure Gunner's happiness and well-being. Richard not only tended to Gunner's basic needs but also made sure to engage him in playtime with an assortment of toys. It was evident that Richard's interactions with Gunner were filled with love and enthusiasm, which meant the world to us as devoted pet parents. In addition to his care for Gunner, Richard demonstrated an incredible level of thoughtfulness by vacuuming the house as needed. Returning from our trip to a clean and tidy home was an unexpected delight! Moreover, Richard even assisted with taking out the trash on trash day, which we found incredibly considerate. Fetch! Pet Care of Sarasota proved to be a reliable and professional company to work with. The ease of booking their services, coupled with the seamless communication throughout the process, was impressive. Richard's dedication, attention to detail, and sincere love for animals truly set him apart as an exceptional cat sitter. We can't thank him enough for the peace of mind he provided while we were away. Gunner seemed content and happy upon our return, and that's all we could have asked for. Without a doubt, we highly recommend Fetch! Pet Care of Sarasota and specifically Richard as a cat sitter to anyone in need of top-notch pet care services. They exceeded our expectations, and we will undoubtedly be reaching out to them for all our future pet care needs. Thank you, Richard, and Fetch! Pet Care, for giving us a worry-free vacation and taking such amazing care of Gunner. Your service deserves more than five stars!
Scheduling via the app was really convenient, and it was great to receive all the reassuring feedback, with the checklist and photos, after each home visit. The owner Walter was friendly and helpful and our cat sitter Lori was very attentive and conscientious in taking care of our senior kitty. We would confidently recommend Fetch! of Sarasota to anyone in the area looking for high-quality pet care!
After having some bad experiences with Rover, I decided to try Fetch Pet Care. They are everything Rover falls short of. Fetch Pet Care is reliable, with many options on how they can care for your dog, awesome online scheduling tool, flexible cancellations, very responsive customer service from all the sitters and the owner, easy payment and much more. They have all their bases covered and gained my full confidence from the first interaction! I was losing faith in finding good pet care in Sarasota, until I found Fetch!
Walter and his crew are amazing. Our dog has done overnights a few times and I often wonder if our pup is sad to see us come get him. There is great communication and care throughout the entire stay. So thankful for this great company, highly recommend this company and their services!
Our Bailee was so well taken care of and loved Walter & Jillian. She has anxiety when we have left her in the past to travel, but she adjusted very well. Walter kept us posted and sent pictures on how she was doing.
Our Chi needed a sitter so we could enjoy a visit to Cool Today Park. This was a new experience for her. Tammie came the night before and spent time getting to know her and allowing our sweet girl to feel more comfortable. We were able to enjoy our day knowing she was well cared for.Reasonable rates. great communication. Would definitely use again!"
Fetch! Pet Care Sarasota is awesome! Our cat sitter not only fed our cats and cleaned their litterbox, he also provided mental stimulation and physical exercise each day. Lots of photos were taken and really made us feel comfortable while we were away. I would HIGHLY reccomend!!!
I have used Fetch Pet Care for over 3 years and have never been disappointed with the care provided. Most recently, Tammie and Sara provided extended coverage sending daily updates and pictures of my feline “children “. They took care to ensure our home was clean of the kitty litter which the cats tend to track around. They provided additional services such as watering our plants and setting out the garbage as we left a few days before. They even asked if they should be getting the mail though we had stopped it. It’s a comfortable feeling knowing we can leave and our loved ones are being well taken care of.
My dogs both have special needs, one has tons of allergies and the other one has hip dysplasia and arthritis. Walt and Jillian are really good at following all the medicine and individualized feeding instructions both of my dogs have, and its a lot! Plus they have a very dog friendly home and they spoil my dogs with love while they are boarded there.
We are so happy to have found AAA Pet Resort for our sweet Finley! Natalya and the entire staff are caring and wonderful. Finley can run and play with other dogs in an open space and loves it there, thank you!!
Missy the Husky mix loves the resort! She is very social, and wanted a facility where she is free to mix with other dogs, and give her the exercise she requires a one year old! The staff is very nice and Missy has done very well there. Highly recommended!
This is the best dog boarding place around! Highly recommend AAA Pet Resort! And my dog loves it there too! He gets to run around for hours if he wants!!!
The individual board and train program is outstanding! We brought our 5-year old Mini Schnauzer that was very aggressive towards anything that moved. The training was excellent and I am very happy with the results. She is now very calm and is a very different dog. Everyone at AAA Pet Resort has a passion for caring for dogs and love the way they use positive training methods that reinforce what they learn. Definitively recommend them 100%!!
We have two beautiful fur babies. Honey and Izzy needed Jorge and Brian at AAA Pet Resort! They took in our two fur babies for two week training. Plus Jorge had already been to our house for follow up training! They are amazing! Everyone at AAA Pet Resort was kind, thoughtful and professional!!! We highly recommend them for training, boarding and grooming!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We absolutely love AAA Pet Resort. We use them for boarding, day play, and grooming. The team knows our dog Nero and he is over the moon every time he gets to go there. Not only are they caring, they are also professional dog trainers that willinfly provide tips and guidance to help us with our dog at home. Our family highly recommends AAA Pet Resort!
Our dog LOVES both daycare and boarding with AAA. Lots of room to run and play, with added services like washes, nail clipping and Agility training. Wonderful place to leave your pet.
My dog Charlie Brown has been going for years to AAA Pet Resort with a recent short break in his visits due to personal reasons. I have to talk about his excitement last week while dropping him off for boarding, when he realized he was getting closer to this very special place for him, he couldn’t contain himself and it was very easy to tell his bark was just pure excitement wanting to get out of my truck to say hello to Natalya and her team. It filled my heart to see him this happy!!
Have taken my dogs there for day care and now using them for training. Jorge has been fantastic with my dogs. They have learned to walk easily for me without pulling which given the two of them weigh about 2/3 of my weight has been a life saver. They listen to me now and behave even around strangers. They love coming here and adore Jorge. He is so good with the dogs and really loves all dogs. He also worked with me as to how to train them at home and what not to do. Worth every penny for the training. I recommend the training to anyone. It is such a relief to have well trained dogs who listen. I also like the day care and so do my dogs.
I can't say enough good things about AAA pet resort!!! After touring the facility and meeting staff members I felt extremely comfortable leaving our 4 month old frenchie with them for doggy daycare. Our puppy loves it there and is excited as soon as we pull into the driveway! He's always happy and well cared for. We've used them for an overnight stay and felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care. They are very personalbe and truly love the animals.
Beware! I would give this place zero stars if it was an option. this place is extremely filthy, barely any AC for the dogs and cats. This is not a resort. I believe these people are ripping people off, and not promising what you're paying for. They can be passive aggressive and extremely rude if your point out anything health hazardous to the well being of the animals. Also witnessed the owners (husband and wife) being passive aggressive and verbally abusive towards the two female employees. if they do that to their employees than i wonder how they "actually treat" your pets. I had made a post before, "somehow" they took it down. Will keep reporting this place till something is done or they are "retired "
We board our dog and two cats at Just 4 Paws for every vacation we take. The staff and owners are extremely reliable, always available, and very pleasant people. Great value and many add on options for dogs! We had extra walks and a bath for ours - she came back smelling great and looking super happy. Our cats love to look out the windows from the tops of the cat trees and hardly want to leave. Highly recommend!
We had our two cats boarded for an exceptionally long time because of our move and we couldn't have been happier with our experience with Just 4 Paws. They clearly loved and cared for our cats like they were their own. We visited often, and each time we came we were met with welcoming smiles. Our cats had an actual room of their own with toys and cat trees looking over a beautiful lake. The room was always super clean and you could tell the cats loved them too because every time they saw their faces the cats lit up knowing they were going to get cuddles and let out to run around. Their rates were exceptionally good too! I will always recommend and sing the praises for Just 4 Paws! Thank you for taking such great care of our cats. Brian and Charli
Just 4 Paws is the best! The owners are very friendly and accommodating. They have great air conditioned garden rooms with grassy play and potty areas. We have used this pet resort many times and our dogs Lucy and Greta always enjoy going here. We also know our fur babies will be well taken care of here... We actually have them booked for an upcoming getaway! Greta our dachshund even has a pack of doxies to play with when she visits.
Our two dogs have been guests at Just 4 Paws several times over the past 2.5 yrs. When we pull up the lane, Ringo and Pixie just start going crazy with anticipation. How many times do dogs actually love to go to the kennel? Ours do. They are able to have a spa room together where it is climate controlled and they have their own yard. we have also used the junior suites for them which they loved equally. Maya and Marcus treat our babies like two of their own. We have boarded them for long weekends as well as several weeks duration. Each time the kids have come home happy and healthy. We have peace of mind while we are travelling knowing the kids are well cared for.
The folks that own and run this boarding place are really nice, and it is obvious that they care very much about the animals housed there. As well, you can pay a little extra for your animal to have additional one on one play time, which is a nice touch. The only drawbacks were their cash only policy, and the cat enclosure room smelt extremely strongly of cat spray. . . But perhaps that's normal. Plus their cat enclosure area is lots of soft furnishing items and my cat didn't seem to mind the smell.
Friendliest staff and so accommodating. Best pet resort in Sarasota! I’ve been to several different places and this is by far the best. It’s so nice to know that my little Rambunctious pup is in good hands when I am away! Thank you for taking care of my Sam!
I love this pet resort!! We bring our dog rocky here and the owners take such good care of him. They take him for walks, make sure he is fed and play with him. When rocky comes home he is so tired from a fun filled day. The owners are such good caring people, at the drop of a dime they are willing to take rocky. My work schedule can be tough sometimes so it's good to know that Just 4 Paws is always there for us. Thank you for the impeccable care of our pet!!!
My dog went to this place during Thanksgiving holidays and I felt very cheated. He spent 4 nights and they charged me like it was 5 nights which is very annoying and not fair. Also they are telling in the website that is a luxury pet resort and it is very very dirty. My dog came back home so dirty and his bed was disgusting, smelling really bad. I had to pay $265 per 4 nights that is $66 per day, when most of the other places that look so much better and are much cleaner are charging between $43 and $46 per day. I don’t trust all the other reviews. I think that they are not real. This is my experience and I hope can help others to choose better the place for their dogs.
Our dog Henry loved his stay and just 4 paws! Very accommodating and caring owners who live onsite overseeing our dogs every need, will definitely be using here again! So nice to have finally found somewhere we can trust for our dog. Thank you both so much.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We cannot thank you, Cheyenne enough for stepping in at extremely short notice to look after our two kitties! We reached out to her on a weekend, less than 24 hours before leaving for a 10-day family vacation after our previous care arrangement let us down. Cheyenne called me back right away and, within a few hours, was at our home for a meet-and-greet to ensure we and our kitties felt comfortable. Her communication was impeccable—she kept us updated twice each day with detailed messages. She spent quality time with our cats, informing us about their eating habits, potty routines, and included plenty of photos. Our older kitty, who is usually shy around strangers, was completely comfortable with her, as evident in the pictures. Cheyenne, truly an angel. Her professionalism and reliability we absolutely top-notch!! We will absolutely be reaching out to her the next time we need help with our kitties! and would hands down recommend her to anyone. Thank you, Cheyenne!!! 🙏🐱❤️
Cheyenne watched me two dogs in her home while I had a trip out of town. She has previously helped with walks and met them at my home, but this was my first time using her as a sitter. I'm always nervous with new sitters but she did an amazing job and my dogs clearly had a wonderful time! I appreciated how thorough her paperwork was at getting health information, preferences, etc. Super professional. She gave me updates while I was gone at the perfect frequency and I had complete confidence that everything was going well. 10/10, highly recommend, would absolutely use again!
Our River had the best time at Shiney Day! We are always so nervous to leave our baby! Cheyenne kept me up to date with how River was doing. She sent me lots of photos too! We will definitely use her services again!
Kaitlin Newman is amazing! As someone new to the Port Charlotte area and working long hours I was nervous bringing a new walker into my home. Once meeting Kaitlin those worried were instantly over. Jacque (my French Bulldog) can be a handful at time but Kaitlin took on the challenge. She treats Jacque as if he is her own. She finds joy in each and every visit with Jacque. Additionally, her communication is never lacking. She makes me aware if she will be running behind or if there is something alarming going on with Jacque. I look forward to her summary and photos daily, which is always lovely to receive during a stressful work day. Kaitlin has even hosted Jacque for two overnight boarding session in which he has been on his best behavior. Jacque is not socialized often with other dogs, so I feared having him around 5 other dogs at once but Kaitlin had no issues acclimating Jacque to the new environment. I knew he had the best of time when he would get home and sleep for the rest of evening and was even unwilling to do his usual walks the following day due to the fun filled weekend. I highly recommend Kaitlin and the Shiney Day company!
Cheyenne has taken care of my two house rabbits many times over the past several years. Between her vet tech expertise, her love of animals of all kinds and her super organized scheduling/communication platform, I always know the rabbits are in good hands. I love seeing the photos and status reports she posts during her visits. It's great to be able to get away and trust your pet sitter 100%. I highly recommend Cheyenne!
Cheyenne is the best! I trust her completely when I am away from my fur babies and they love her. Very good at communication.
Cheyenne is great! We were searching for a sitter who could take care of our furbabies while we are out of town. We have 2 aging cats with minor health issues. We feel totally at ease leaving them in Cheyenne's care. She is not only very responsive and reliable, but she also would know what to do if our cats had any health issues while we are gone. And she keeps you informed with notes and pictures every time she visits your pets. We highly recommend Shiney Day Specialized Pet Care and Cheyenne to anyone wanting peace of mind with their pet care.
Cheyenne is great, very trustworthy and reliable! She always updates you on her visit and will reach out with any concerns. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog-walker or any other of her provided services; I can guarantee your pet will be in the best hands!
Extremely professional service, website is easy to navigate and user friendly for scheduling. Extensive feedback is provided with each visit, all for a very generous price for what is given. I feel more than comfortable with Cheyenne being responsible for the scheduled visit, along with her being in my home and taking care of my dog. She’s a true animal lover, it’s highly evident how much she genuinely cares about the health and well-being of our pets. She always goes above and beyond, addresses any possible concerns she has, even those that are not hers to worry about. She is amazing at what she does and I’d recommend her services to anyone looking for a dog walker / in need of pet services.
Cheyenne and Shiney Day Pet Care are the best! Not only was she extremely quick with communication but also very accommodating with last minute changes. She loves animals so much, which makes me happy as an owner because then I know my cats are in good hands. And if you have a sick animal, she knows how to take care of them. It’s nice to have someone taking care of your animals who you can also seek ask advice from. My cat was extreme my old and sick when Cheyenne gave her the best care and helped me with figuring out what was best for her.
I called Paws & Love at the last minute needing doggie day care. They were so kind to accommodate and took such good care of Coco. She had a lot of fun and was worn out and happy to see me at the end of the day. Thank you so much!
Julia and Angel took care of my baby Bonnie. We can see Bonnie had a great time while she was in their care. We received updates daily from Julia and how Bonnie was doing. Definitely using their services again. The place is beautiful and well cared!
My wife and I love this place. We got our golden retriever puppy Mandy about five months ago. We looked for a place so Mandy could get some companionship and I found paws and love dog service. We met with Angel and Julia. they have watched Mandy numerous times during the day and overnight, and are very good to her. Mandy loves it there. The dogs get plenty of playtime, but also have rest time in the cool air-conditioned kennel area — so important in this Florida heat.
My family and I scheduled a vacation and needed a sitter for the pets for a couple days. Consequently, I ran across Paws and Love and decided to try them out. Meanwhile, my dogs have never been away from us so we weren't sure this was going to work. However, Julia and her family made a great first impression on us and I was impressed with the facility. Julia, seems to be a wonderful person with a wonderful spirit and temperament for the animals. My dogs don't take to everyone but they love Julia. Paws of Love is located on a wonderful piece of property, with spacious accomodations and housing for the comfort of the dogs. Yes, they have a back yard area that my dogs really enjoyed to explore and play for exercise. One of my dogs is a toy Pomeranian and even she enjoyed the backyard. I know this because Julia sent pictures and videos throughout the stay to keep us updated and comforted that the dogs were being well taken care of. I really appreciate this amenity from Paws and Love. I am already considering using Paws and Love for a daycare visit for the dogs if we ever want to hang out without leaving the dogs home alone. Unequivocally, I definitely recommend Paws and Love to anyone considering a daycare or boarding visit for the animals because Julia does a wonderful job taking care of the animals and its cost effective. Thank You Julia and Paws and Love for all you do for the animals!
We needed to board both our large boys last minute while we waited to close on our home for a week and came across Paws and love. They are incredible and beyond friendly, Julia is a gem and sent daily pictures of my boys. It was our first time ever having to use this type of service, I was nervous but Julia reassured me everyday the boys were doing wonderful and had adjusted nicely! Definitely recommend and will be using again!
Finding Paws and Love has been a blessing for our family. They are very professional and respond to texts quickly, and they are very accommodating even if we have last minute requests or time/date changes. We always receive pictures and videos throughout the day. Their facility is well maintained and comfortable for the dogs to run and play. Our girl loves to play with the other dogs and we know she is taken care of and looked after when in their care. We highly recommend them and will continue taking our girl there.
Julia took very good care of my pup Oreo while I was out of town for a weekend! Excellent pricing too! Would highly recommend.
Julia and Angel are so sweet and take great care of our pups. We’ve had to change dates or reschedule and they are always so nice and accommodating. I get multiple photo texts daily of my boys which is very comforting. I would give them 100 stars.
We had our White Golden Retriever stay here for 6 days and he loved it! He played with other friendly dogs, had toys to fetch and we got photos of him throughout his stay which was fantastic (these photos I added were from them!). Julia and Angel are very nice and respond right away to messages, having good communication which gave us peace of mind! We’ll be going here next time and we would recommend them to all!
Highly recommend! We boarded our golden with her and for a week while we went on a cruise and we are extremely happy with her services. The dogs have plenty of space outside, air conditioned inside and most importantly, our dog was well taken care of. She sends pictures and gives updates regularly as well as being reasonably priced. We will definately be using her services anytime we go out of town!
my dog absolutely loves coming in for daycare! i’ve been bringing her for 2 years and the staff always greets her when she comes in! she has so many friends and the staff is more than willing to send updates and pictures!
Fin loved his time there! I was nervous to take him anywhere but those fears were gone the minute I got there. A bit of backstory- Fin is a 13 year old Schnauzer. Until a few months ago, Fin spent every moment of his life with his blood brother Henry. They were born together, came home together and were always side by side. Fin has always been the protective one, the louder one when strangers or other dogs were around and Henry was the sweeter, friendlier one. Sadly, after a few medical issues, Henry recently passed. And it was tough on all of us, including Fin. So when I made plans to go out of town for the weekend, I was a bit hesitant. He’d never done anything like this before and I was nervous how he’d be with people or dogs he’d never met. I’ve been told from the vet and groomer that when he’s alone and around other dogs he’s a very nice gentleman. So I hoped he would be there as well. And they told me he was! They told me he did very good and I credit them for doing so! He had a wonderful time and everyone did a wonderful job. He came home clean and then sent me photos of him nightly which put our minds at ease. I would receive to anyone looking to board their loved pups!
This was my new puppy, Bennie’s, first visit at Woofdorf which came highly recommended he LOVED it. And came home with an adorable paw print craft too. Kelsie and Payton were amazing at the front desk and treated Bennie so lovingly. Can’t wait for him to go back to Woofdorf Astoria! What a lovely facility and staff.
My dog loves coming here for day care . I know this , since I can watch her on the cameras . It's a good group of dogs and there's always a person or two watching over them . The staff are friendly and put up with my dogs bad manners. Id recommend them for boarding or day care . They also do some grooming while you pet is there if needed. Nice !
Picked up my dogs after staying for 2 nights and was disgusted to find them both wreaking of urine and their beds completely saturated with urine. Our dogs have never made a mess in the house. This is completely out of character for our dogs. I asked when they were taken out to use the ‘potty’, I was told, “they were supposed to be taken out an hour ago.” When the employee handed them over to me for the first time, they both were clawing at the door. . I took em outside and they each ran to the grass at the property (Woofdorf) to poop and pee. It is clear to me they were not walked every 4 hours as we were told. Our dogs are used to being inside for several hours (while we are at work) for over a decade and have never had an issue like this. It is obvious they have been neglected and we are truly disappointed. After a long day of traveling— our dogs have no beds, had to bathe them twice to get the smell of urine out, clean my car and home. I would recommend avoiding this place.
We went out of town and my mother was watching our dog Nelson - which was a tremendous feat for her since he weighs about 75 pounds and she barely weighs more than that. She took him to the Woofdorf Astoria for play days while we were gone and it was terrific. They took such good care of him and he seemed to have a great time. It made it so much easier for her and she felt like they really cared about Nelson. We will definitely be using their services in the future!
our german shepherd whiskey loves it here! friendly informed staff, and easy process. i never have to worry about leaving our pup for daycare / boarding at this facility. the best in the area 🤍 …
My pet PIA absolutely LOVES going to Woofdorf Astoria. Last year was a bad year of illnesses and other issues for her off and on and she’s had no desire to want to do anything. I started to see her light shine again a “little” before the holidays approached and thought she was getting better. Here we are now in the new year of 2024 and she’s in a bit of a funk after a recent dog attack and wouldn’t snap out of it emotionally. It’s so upsetting to see your pet depressed and not wanting to play with their toys, interact in any way or to even take a walk. I decided to bring her back to WA yesterday to see if not only the staff would pick up her spirits but her doggie pals as well. WHAT A GAME CHANGER!! I received pics from the staff with her playing with her friends and having a great time and I too kept an eye on her on my cell thru their web cam. She was doing better than I anticipated. Her light shines “bright” again after just one visit, she is smiling a lot more and I have a very grateful heart. Thank you Woofdorf Astoria and your friendly, dedicated and loving staff for taking such good care of my little girl. If I could, I would give you 10 stars! GOD bless you all!! AR
We moved here 3 years ago and started taking Holly and Luna to Woofdorf as it was close to our home. Luckily, they are amazing! Our dogs love it there. Our oldest Holly passed away a few months ago and the staff put a picture of her in the office and sent a lovely sympathy card with everyone saying such kind things. It meant a lot. Luna was a little apprehensive at first going by herself, but the folks there made her comfortable. Thanks for all you do for our dogs! Your care is much appreciated.
I so highly recommend this boarding and daycare facility! Thank you to everyone at Woofdorf Astoria of LR. Our Gracie has never done well with Boarding. She always came home stressed and often with digestion problems. She has boarded now 4 times with them and done great! She is tired when she gets home but otherwise fine. I attribute that to the great care of the caregivers and 24 hour people in attendance. Really great place to keep your dog safe! ❤️
