This was our first sit and we were very lucky to do it at Meredith’s and Matts place! They are amazing people and we are very happy to have had the opportunity to meet them. The communication went very smoothly and they gave us all the necessary information and support. They expected us at the train station and took us for a nice dinner. The house is fully equipped and spotless clean and they also let some treats for us to enjoy. They were very kind and let us use their bikes and we have enjoyed some scienic roads around the nearby villages. Rudy and Zelda are adorable and easy to take care of. They are sweethearts and they will accommodate easily. We were very happy to be approved by Rusy so easy and smoothly. Zelda is a very happy dog and she will take as many pats you are available to give to her. Rudy is not necessarily a lap cat but she will make sure to get confy around you when you are enjoying a movie. We really had a great time and appreciate the hospitality of Meredith and Matt and we are already missing Zelda and Rudy and hope to see them again in the future. Thank you for everything.

Cecil is the owner/caretaker. What a wonderful lady. We took our kitty for a long weekend. I couldn't have asked for better care of my little pet. Total professional care, clean and impressive grounds. Full intake before and upon arrival. Obviously, she cares for her charges. I feel so fortunate to have found her.
Cecile is awesome! She’s always so helpful and clearly loves the animals that come to visit including speaking French to them. Highly recommend and check them out for your dog or cat boarding needs.
Cecile is lovely, and takes care of the dogs with her whole heart. The estate is large and secure. My dog loves coming!
Absolutely wonderful place to board your pets. I've taken my pets here for years and Cecil has always taken great care of them. Both cats and dogs are on separate parts of the property, but it is very secure and clean. The cats are inside of her house,have their own cages and necessities. My pets had a blast and she even spoke French to them! Definitely recommend.
Best and most caring place to bring your pets! Cecilia always makes sure the pets are happy and comfortable! Great for a planned vacation or a last minute carpet cleaning ! Would recommend to everyone. My mom brought our cats there as children and now I have my own and still bring them to happy pets ❤️
We take our one year old puppy here all the time and he loves it. Cecile (the owner) is a very caring pet lover. Your dog will have plenty of room to run and play.
The BEST place to take your four-legged family member! We have been taking our dog(s) to Happy Pet's Inn for over 15 years. Cecile and Jean Pierre are simply the best. They treat our dogs like part of their family. Zeus, our German Shepard, starts getting excited when we are about 3 miles away. He always comes back happy and healthy. We left him ONCE at another place...NEVER again. ONLY Happy Pet's Inn for him. Our previous Golden Retriever, Shane, LOVED Happy Pet's Inn. He too would get excited on the beautiful drive a few miles before we arrived. We have had many of our friends board their dogs at Happy Pet's Inn and ALL have been extremely satisfied. Cecile and Jean Pierre are truly a blessing. It's so nice to NEVER have to worry about our dog when we are away. It may seem like a long way to go for those who live out of the area, but it is well worth it and a lovely drive. As an added bonus, Cecile and Jean Pierre are the most patriotic couple that we know...but that's another story. You won't regret using Happy Pet's Inn. There is nothing that can compare to the care and love that Cecile and Jean Pierre and their staff give to the dogs and cats. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!
Cecile was absolutely amazing, we needed a pet sitter for our chihuahua for a day and couldn't find anywhere else to take her but she said she would and our little schunk was very well taken care of :3
I have known the owners of this exceptional pet friendly facility for more than three decades. They are some of the most hard working and dedicated people that I have ever seen. These people have a genuine love and devotion for animals that goes well beyond what one would expect from from any type of pet related business. The Happy Pets Inn is the real deal twenty four seven and I don't know of a better place for any pet to be cared for. They have taken care of my animals over many years when I have had to deal with out of town family emergencies. I feel blessed knowing that in my absence my pets were cared for far better than I could have hoped for. You won't find a better place to leave your pet. Sincerely, R.D. Martinez
I have been boarding my dogs here for years. I wouldn’t consider any other place. Cecile is wonderful and the facility is a dog’s idea of heaven. My pooch(es - past and present ) have always been happy to vacation here!
I had a work trip in Napa and my Fiona tagged along with me ... She went to Maranda Ranch Kennels each day and had the best time. She played all day. By the time I picked her up she would sleep all the way back to the hotel, eat dinner and go to bed. Highly recommend Maranda Ranch and their team of amazing Pawfriends. 🐾
We recently boarded our pups at Maranda ranch kennels. Our dogs got alot of attention and playtime, the staff is great. The added bonus for us is our mini aussie Sophia was born there and was part of Setters 2019 June litter. This past stay she was able to see and play with her sister Goose, who is still part of the ranch. We will continue to board our pups there in the future. Also many thanks to Marybeth.
I’m not gonna lie, back in March, I hated the idea of putting my little man in a kennel. But Maranda is different! He has so much fun there (pictures to prove it) and gets excited pulling up to the check-in area. Thanks guys for taking great care of Leaf and giving me the piece of mind an anxious dog dad has!
My dog's 3-day stay was a horrific experience! (Photos below). Her paws were so infected and swollen she could hardly walk when I picked her up. And she was so heat exhausted I had to stop the car on the way home to make sure she was still alive! When we got home she shivered for over an hour. It cost over $100 at our vet, which included having to give her antibiotics for a week. And, my dog is super-sweet and mellow but her brand new canvas bag that had her stuff in it was ripped and the handle torn off -- which no one told me about when I picked her up nor would they tell me about it later when I asked. The only thing they said when I picked her up was, "Bring more food next time; she was hungry". They only feed once a day (!) so I brought her extra meals but no one bothered to call me to ask about feeding her more (I would've been paid extra) because they were perfectly fine with her going hungry!?! THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR DOG, only about your money. Maribeth the owner said she would call me back and she didn't even when she was told our veterinarian was concerned. My dog's favorite thing in the world to do is to go for walks, but her paws were such a mess from being there she didn't want to go for a walk for three days. Three days! She was traumatized and I was so upset it ruined my vacation. This kennel needs to be shut down!
This place is fantastic. My dog has been to at least three other boarding places and while they were all perfectly fine, he was always not himself when he comes home. He would act like a wild dog that doesn’t recognize the family at first and then would seem depressed and not want to eat until he was home for a few days. The first time he stayed at Maranda Ranch was for 2 weeks, longer than he’s ever been at any boarding, and he was his normal happy self when I picked him up. That alone makes me trust this place. He also had a bit of a medical issue while there and they took wonderful care him. He will definitely be staying there again when needed and I highly recommend this place.
This is a great place! I also own a kennel, so I knew what to ask about and what to look for. Everything was clean, the dogs were well taken care of, and the staff was wonderful. They made my vacation better by easing my mind and heart while I went on day trips. Thanks for taking such good care of my pups!
Amazing place to bring your pups and doggies! Our 3 year old has been going there since he was born, and I have run into friends out there as well. The dogs are well cared for and have so much fun playing on the trampoline or splashing in the kiddie pool on warm days. Maribeth, who previously trained guide dogs for the blind, is beyond experienced and has created a true doggie daycare and retreat. Every human out there is so kind and loving. Can't say enough about this place!! Ohhhh, and the best part might be that they do almost daily videos of the dogs so that you can watch them on Facebook while you are on vacation thousands of miles away!
I can't say enough good things about my experience here for day care for Bud. It is large, clean, and well maintained. The section Bud was in had her in an indoor/outdoor space to herself. She is a shy dog. Right outside her run was the large group play area with a water feature. It was shaded and quite large. I think this was the small dog section but don't quote me on that. I was so pleased I booked an extra day. When I picked her up I got a report of how she did. I always appreciate that.
Love Love Love this place. My dogs are so excited at the mention of going to see their friends at the ranch
Our vet recommended Maranda Ranch, and we could not be more grateful ! They warmly and efficiently care for the unique needs of our arthritic old lab, as well as our "crazy" young boxer. Our dogs can have time together there, but also space apart from eachother, and our boxer can run out his energy playing with the other dogs who are staying - so we found him a LOT less stressed out than he was after staying at other facilities in the past. I can bring in my own food with the dogs, but find it convenient that they will feed their own high-quality food at no additional charge. Plus, we got a small discount for boarding multiple pets at once. If that's not enough, it feels great supporting a local family-owned business.
We couldn't be happier with the system and staff at Vintage. Boarding our 5 mo old Labrador Retriever for 11 days gave her lots of new experiences and so many different dogs to play with while we were on vacation too. It gave us peace of mind to relax while we were away. She came home with improved obedience, content, tired out, and even more lovie than before! The communication was great and the experience far exceeded our expectations! We love Vintage Ranch and will bring her back for playdates & overnights in the future! Can't thank the staff enough for making the whole experience smooth and great!! Highly recommend!!
Amazing and charming place for your dogs! All the team are very professional and so friendly You feel the Love here! For day care or boarding .. our Jack Russel Figaro is running to play with his friends. All the dogs have so much fun here. It’s a Paradise for dogs … A GEM 🙏❤️
I have just become a client at Vintage Dog Ranch and feel compelled to post about my fantastic experience with them. The staff and management are incredibly professional, kind, and responsive. They have a whole system for dogs checking in and out and their friendly care for all of the pups is impecable. I am thrilled to be a regular client!
When you want your dog to have a vacation just as fun and energizing as yours… this is the place! Our wheaten loves it here when we’re out of town. She’s stayed more than a dozen times for anywhere from 5-12 days. Always ample communication from the team when necessary and there’s never been an issue of care or judgment. The staff and owners are trustworthy, caring for your pet just as they would their own.
We have been going to Vintage for many years. Our last visit was exceptional. Brian and staff (Mary) noticed subtle changes in our elder Great Dane and took immediate action, transporting him to our Vet 20 miles away in Napa. He had flipped his stomach (common with Great Danes), he got immediate care and emergency surgery. Our Vet noted many times that Brian and staff saved his life. He is home with us and recovering. We are forever grateful for the care and attention "Hugo" received at Vintage Kennel Club!
Dogs love Vintage because Vintage loves dogs. Simple as that. We have left our dogs a "the spa" for many years, during extended trips to Europe, and when we get back we find them happy, healthy, and perhaps even better than when we left. Vintage makes an extra effort to make sure the dogs hang out with comparable dogs and makes sure everyone gets along -- not always easy with our feisty Jack Russells. We are so grateful that a friend recommended Vintage many years ago.
We have two dogs and one is a high needs. They both get all the attention and care needed so we can leave them confidence! We even had a scare with our high needs and she was brought to the vet and received full care. You can't beat Vintage for qualify care.
Couldn't be happier with Vintage Kennel Club! Our furbaby goes for both day care and, when needed, overnight stays. Great communication, extremely friendly staff, clean and safe facility, easy drop off and pick up, and overall great experiences. Our dog knows the minute we turn on to the street that she is going to doggie camp and she gets so excited and can't wait! They even give little progress reports on their daily activities and who they played with. We LOVE Vintage!
Love this place!! We have been using Vintage for both of my dogs we have owned over the last 10 years! It is truly a great place to have your pups taken care of when you are traveling. Alway great to know they are safe/sound and getting lots of love from the amazing staff! Our new boy especially loves the new play area so he can be a party boy and do his zoomies!! Highly recommend Vintage Kennel!
Love Vintage kennel!! Have been bringing my dogs here for 15+ years. Owners are amazing-even saved my dogs life once!! We drive 1.5 hours each was so our dog can stay here because we trust Brian and Mike so much. And our dogs get so excited to go!!
Fit N Furry is Lucy Loo’s home away from home. She loves her play days with friends and comes home all tuckered out. She also enjoys her sleepovers and we rest easy knowing she’s in the best of hands when we are away. Lucy Loo is a rescue from Mexico and gets very anxious around strangers. Her people friends at Fit N Furry treat her with such love and care. Can’t say enough good about the people and the place. They also have lots of fun events for the various holidays. We LOVE Fit N Furry.
We recently got a puppy and had to start over with a vet, training, and day care/boarding once in a while. We heard about FNF through a friend and gave them a try when we went to Disneyland. Our 6 month old Aussie Doodle isn't trusting of everyone. He definitely felt comfortable with the people at FNF immediately. It made a huge difference for us. We didn't have to worry about him. We got to enjoy the trip. They sent us pictures of him and updates the whole trip. It really put our mind at ease. He was well cared for and we could tell he wasn't stressed out etc. We will be continuing to give our business to FNF, even though there are other places that are more convenient and closer to us. Worth the drive 100% *Picture attached is one of the pics they sent to us as an update.
My big, deaf-from-birth, formerly stray dog thrives at FitnFurry. He was traumatized on the street as a pup and has issues with people and dogs, but at Fit he gets individualized attention, solo play in special sessions, and great care! The staff are terrific and he loves going there to stay.
It has been just about 3 weeks since we picked up our precious Lab Hope after her 18 day boarding/training course and her transformation has been amazing! This was a frightened timid and shaking dog that hid behind us when we arrived for her free consultation. We were assured that she would gain experience, confidence and skills while under their care. We journeyed of to Hawaii for a couple of weeks and received pictures and ongoing details of how her training was progressing. Today, the moment of truth came for us when we had visitors in our home, strangers to her. She laid down calmly, never barked, never got worked up, and when I put her on her leash to go for a walk, she sat calmly as she observed the strangers with not one ounce of negative fear or reaction. We went for our walk and she returned home just as calm as can be, all while my brothers dog barked uncontrollably at the strange voices. Marie has done a phenomenal job with Hope, and on her return visit, she was just as happy as can be returning to see Marie and her friends that she made at Fit & Furry. I have already referred several friends to Fit and Furry and I highly recommend their training courses. The transformation is so worth it! I was fortunate to be able to plan in advance and make payments prior to the training so that it was much easier to manage the cost of training, but I would not hesitate to do it again. Thank you Marie and staff on behalf of Hope and our grateful family! You are one in a million!!! Hope thinks so too!! Here is a picture of Hope and her little friend Sasha who was also once shy and Hope helped her to come out of her shell. Just Amazing Hope!!!
Wanted to start our new pup with a good daycare, lodging experience. Went to puppy play - well managed and then to lodging. Our girl is happy to meet all her new friends and played out by the time she comes home. They even gave her a bath after she got too messy! Loving Fit n Furry- hope your furball feels that same!
I can’t say enough about how wonderful Fit ‘N’ Furry is. My dog loves going to daycare, the groomer is excellent as well as the training staff. I have boarded my dog multiple times at Fit ‘N’ Furry because they take such good care of my dog. The training staff are always available when I have questions and they are absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend taking your pet to Fit ‘N’ Furry for all their services!!
My sweet shy rescue girl, Olive, received what I can only imagine was the best care she could get. Marie was her personal trainer to help Olive feel more confident, use her dog brain to provide her with fulfillment and purpose and show off just how intelligent she is! When I saw Olive at the end of her training, she was SO happy and full of positive emotions! It was such a pleasure to see this bright side of my shy little girl. Thanks to FitnFurry and Marie, in particular, for being patient with her and providing her with this lifelong skill and cherished memory.
We adopted a Dachshund mix puppy. We boarded him at Fit 'N" Furry and the service and care he received was excellent. The facilities are clean while the staff is welcoming and professional. In addition to boarding him, we engaged their trainer, Marie, to work with him. She not only trained him, but she trained us. She was insightful as to what our puppy’s needs were, the breed characteristics, developmental stages, etc. Our dog is now a 1 year adolescent and she continues to provide us with evaluation, problem solving, and setting expectations and goals. Marie is an outstanding, thoughtful, experienced, and caring professional. We strongly recommend.
We have been bringing our dog to Fit n’Furry since 2018. They are wonderful and take such great care of him. Always professional and welcoming. The staff is top notch!
This place has been a great one-stop shop for daycare, grooming, and training for us. Marie especially was an amazing trainer for our puppy. She was consistantly patient and kind with our puppy, and also took time to train our family how to continue building the skills at home. She has the heart and the know-how to work with the pups, and was worth every dollar spent!
Suzie was happy and healthy after 8 days at lil’ Rascals in Maria’s Home. Thank you so much Maria, this is the start of a new chapter in Suzie’s life. I appreciate all you did for her!🐾 …
Maria is fantastic with animals! Super nice and easy to coordinate with. Highly recommended.
We loved Ruff ! My Spinone, Zeppe went several times a week for daycare and he would start making happy noises miles away knowing that he was going to hang with friends. He went thru those doors and never looked back at me. (sigh) He came home tired and happy every day. Everyone so nice, all so clean, a great facility. HIGHLY recommend.
My dog loves coming to Ruff for daycare! The staff treat him like a real fur baby!
Dolce has a great time at her meet and greet and first overnight. She’ll be calling Ruff her home away from home when she can’t travel with me.
The best place to take your dog in the Napa/Sonoma area! Top notch staff who know what they are doing. Excellent facility!
My dog loves the special people at Ruff! And so do I.
Well run. Our boy seemed to like it.
Melodie, the owner of Tails Up!, is professional and caring. The dog sitters who have watched our puppy have taken him into their homes, made him a part of their family routines, and given him lots of TLC. This business fills a special need by treating dogs with love & empathy.
We strongly recommend Tails Up! Napa Valley for your four legged loved ones! Melodie made our experience comfortably seamless when we were out of town for several days. Our greatest concern when leaving our dogs was not only the basics of being fed and let out, but she took it a couple steps further by giving them companionship by staying overnight, taking them for walks frequently, and giving them baths. We will call upon her and only her every time we leave town. Thank you!!
Highly recommend Tails Up! Napa Valley! Melodie and her staff were amazing. I received daily updates on how my dog was doing along with photos to boot! My mind was definitely at ease knowing he was being so well taken care of. I will definitely use Tails Up! in the future.
Thank goodness for Tails up Napa Valley! They give so much love to my dog on my workdays! I can tell by all the pictures that he is in love! Don’t know what I would do without them!
We couldn't be more pleased with Tails Up! Napa Valley. Melodie and Penny took such great care of our lab and cat as if they were their own pets. This was evident upon our return home. We completely trust Tails Up! Napa Valley with our pets and home and are planning to use them again next month when we leave for vacation. Thanks fore everything Melodie and Penny!
Thank goodness Tails Up Napa Valley is open again!! Melodie and her team are professional and reliable and our dog, Rusty loves them as much as we do. We just planned our first travel in over a year and are so happy Rusty will be happy and well taken care of while we’re away!
I have worked with the TailUp team to walk my pup since they initially opened. They are extremely professional, well managed, and reliable. Melodie, the owner takes extreme care to screen her staff and to ensure that they, not only follow safety rules, but also make sure that I as the pet parent am comfortable with her team. TailsUp closed briefly due to state independent contractor regulations, but they are now back in business! I couldn’t be happier with their service and professionalism.
We have used Tails Up for walks & dog sitting on two visits to Napa, and they have been great! Very responsive and flexible for early/late requests. We got updates and great pics from each of the walkers. Will definitely reach out the next time we are in town with our pup!
I can hardly wait to bring my Norfolk Terrior Baldwin to stay for awhile after reading your reviews. Our pets become our chosen family so easily. Thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts.
I want to take a few moments to express my complete satisfaction with Tails Up pet sitting. Melodie & Penny did a wonderful professional job with my 2 cats. I received complete & thorough reports on every visit. Photos of my cat boys mail & newspaper collection were included. If I could I'd give them a 10 star rating. My cats are like family to me so I compliment only the most professional caregivers with real love & caring for animals .
