We are so thankful Gloria was able to watch our sweet, elderly dog while we went away for vacation. Gloria was easy to communicate with, flexible with our schedule and kept us updated throughout our time gone! Would love to have Gloria sit for us again in the future!
I had a great time house sitting for Devyn and her pets in Richmond. Juno and Calypso are good buddies, and are very sweet and easy to care for. Their home is located in a lovely neighborhood very convenient to all of Richmond. Communication was exceptional, and I was able to visit my two sons who live in Richmond. All around it was a great sit! Thanks, Steve
We have just returned from a wonderful sit at Janie & Charlie’s (Millie & Maisie’s). We were welcomed with warmth and a beautiful meal cooked by Janie, which was much appreciated! We had a lovely chat to both Janie & Charlie the evening we arrived and before they left for their break. The house was large, yet gave you a ‘hug’ as you walked through....warm, clean, and everything you would need or want for during a house sit. Clearly a very well looked after and loved home. Janie & Charlie offered us a very comfortable en-suite room to stay and also the use of a bath in another room. We were welcomed to use kitchen facilities and a lovely warm dining/seated area. We were also welcomed to use other rooms if we wished to. The village itself is lovely and quiet, with a pub and small community run shop, yet a short drive to anything else you need. Maisie and Millie were just a joy to care for. They each showed their character by doing little tricks when they wanted their breakfast/dinner or simply felt a bit peckish for a treat (dog biscuit). Millie was always up for a walk with Karl and Maisie was happy for a very short one or simply a trip in the garden. They loved their cuddles and happy to sit with you on an evening or stormy, wet windy day just chilling. Thank you Janie & Charlie for entrusting is with your home and pets. We had a lovely break :) Lorraine & Karl xx
We had a great few days looking after Pollux in Hither Green, London. Pollux was a lovely cat that was content on his own but enjoyed being in the same room. The house was well equipped with everything we needed and had good transport links into both Docklands and Central London. Ben and Samantha had left a great welcome guide and kept in touch during their holiday. We'd definitely recommend the sit without reservation.
I have been house sitting in the US for the last 3 months . This was my last sit before returning to Europe and what a glorious ending!!! I loved that sit for many reasons but it all start with the pets. I felt in love with all of them. Moscow is a charmer and a baby all together. He gets along with other dog. At the dog parc He played with the big dog or the small one. I came to the conclusion that He is a big dog on short legs :) At night He love to cuddle on the sofa that is when the baby comes up and wants to be cared for. Cairo and Rio are two lap cats . Cairo came right away and Rio took a day to warm up and trust me but then He was all in! They are still kitten so they entertain each others running around . The house is beautiful and full of light. I enjoyed my morning coffee on the terrace with a view. Thanks to Ruth for good communication . I would return in a heart beat. So I highly recommend that sit !!
Lovely, lovely, lovely sit with Clementine. She is the sweetest thing, and very chill. Except I think she knows how to tell time because she is spot on every morning and evening as to what time she is to be served her food. Hahaha! She LOVES to be brushed! She just turns into putty. The house is wonderful. The giant windows with the views of the bay - fabulous. Kelly and Steve were easy to communicate with before and during the stay. Very good experience. I would totally sit here again!
We had a great stay at Jo's place. Mason was a very friendly dog & we enjoyed our walks with him. Also helped by the beautiful area - great cycling and walking here! (And fantastic local pubs). We also really enjoyed staying in the 'barn' (guesthouse) - it had everything we needed & more. Jo and her family are all wonderful, we enjoyed meeting them and communication was super easy at all times. Would highly recommend this sit!

Reagan took AMAZING care of our beaded dragon Toothless. We got regular updates and never had to worry! The best pet sitter in El Dorado County!
What a sweet girl! I had Reagan watch my 3 dogs and 2 cats and we had nothing to worry about. Can't wait to hire her again for my next vacation. Thank you Reagan!
Took great care of our Tiny Boy chihuahua! Will definitely use their services again.
They are so fast and efficient with getting my dogs nails trimmed I love bringing my dogs here. Thanks so much for your hard work, my dogs are not easy! And they’re never made them bleed. The vet has made my girl dog bleed twice.
I’ve brought my golden retriever dog, Rosie, here many many times for boarding and grooming. They do a fantastic job and of bathing and “deshedding” her. I absolutely love and trust this business. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable and, seriously, can’t do enough for you.. I’ve popped in, unexpectedly, in the area where they play at different times of the day and all Is great! My dog always seems happy at drop off and pick up! .
Absolutely horrible I made sure I could stay with my pup because of his anxiety and it was disturbing the place was a mess dog hair and dog poop everywhere. They don’t clean there brushes or nail filer all the dogs looked terrified. Never again! Please don’t take your sweet baby’s here!
Kelly did a great job grooming Queen! After moving here awhile ago, we had not been able to keep up with her hair growth and she had quite a few mats. Kelly handled it and gave us a fresh start to ensure it doesn't happen again! Thanks Kelly!
love this place!! Brought my dog here for the first time and we had a great experience. Nice staff, good prices and great work. This is our new spot! 100/10 recommend this place for grooming! :)
Always such a blessing to have affordable and available daycare. No appointments needed for daycare, and they will even file nails after our active girl has run around a bit. She gets out so much energy and loves playing with all the friends at the pet club!
A great place for doggie day play and boarding. I feel like all staff members work hard to keep the dogs safe. They are quick to clean up accidents and give time out when dogs needs it.
Our pups love their hotel experience. We used to try to task family with watching our dogs when we left town, which was always a hassle and somehow always ended up with us coming home to a house full of "accidents", which was always great to clean up after a long trip. We started bringing our dogs to the pet club. What a terrific experience all around. The staff is incredibly friendly and our dogs seem to love them. We even get them groomed here and they do an outstanding job every time! Charlie and Lulu love you guys, keep up the great work!
There isn't enough praise I can give to this group; everyone from the daycare facilitators, groomers, and adoption services is beyond top-notch when it comes to care and respect for the animals in their charge. I personally have adopted one of the best dogs I've ever owned from them, and I bring both of my dogs in to play at the daycare regularly. They love it! Always a friendly greeting from all the staff, and it speaks volunes that my dogs seem to love them even more than I do. If you're on the fence whether or not to use their services, I urge you to do so! Amazing group, thank you so much for all you do!
They sounded very nice. Maybe if they weren't overwhelmed by all the evacuees' animals, they would be better. I was told on the phone how they loved my dog and she was doing so good. They would send me pictures. A week later...still no pictures even after I called twice. I was also told they would groom her before I picked her up. I called the evening before around 5:30. Picked her up the next day about 10:30 and her fur was sticky and stiff on her paws and her neck. She was very dirty and her fur was not shiny as it always is. She was not groomed at all. It was free so I should not complain, but I did not take my dog there.. she was transferred there by the Animsl Shelter. We were going leave a donation, however when we saw the condition she was in, we decided against it.
We could not be more happy with the service provided by Pawsitive Vibes! Our dog is treated like one of their own and that is hard to find. Our girl gets all the playtime, walks, and snuggles during her stays. Another amazing thing is that you will get pictures and videos of your pup having fun playing and out on walks. Our girl starts to get excited when we pull into the neighborhood because she knows she about to have a great day or sometimes a few days at Pawsitive Vibes! Anyone that gets in with Pawsitive Vibes should consider themselves lucky. I know we feel so lucky and fortunate to have found them. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl Leia!
Our dog loves Pawsitive Vibes. He knows when we get close and starts to squeak with excitement and cannot wait to get out of the car and go in. He is always happy and chill when we pick him up because he gets to play and go on some outdoor adventures while he is there. We are so grateful to have found good care for our sweet border collie!
DOG HEAVEN!! We are so grateful for Pawsitive vibes for always providing the best care to our chocolate lab Walter. They are super attentive, communicative and you can tell how much they love dogs too. Every time Walter comes home he is so so tired which tells me he had the time of his life. The best doggy care giver ever!
Stephanie is amazing! We really loved working with her and we know our pup loved the time with her & Marshmallow!!! She was always flexible for drop off and pick up times and our pup was spoiled with her, sleeping with her at night on her bed instead of her crate. Stephanie also worked on training our lil’ pup with better manners and we swear she’s a much better pup now than before. We would highly recommend her services and are so happy we found her. We’ll be her customers for life!!
We are so happy we found Happy Paws! Stephanie is a true dog lover! It is so comforting to know our dog is in such great hands when we need to leave town, or when we are working late and need someone to swing by to feed her dinner. She is also very responsive and flexible with scheduling, and so pleasant to interact with. I love that she sends updates while she is caring for our doggy!
Stephanie is amazing with our dogs and they love her! We always trust her 100% with them when we go out of town for just a day or overnight for a few days. I definitely recommend Happy Paws.
Happy Paws is awesome! Stephanie and her wonderful crew of pet sitters took care of my cats while we were away for a week and did such a great job! They are very caring, conscientious and wonderful. They keep you up to date on how your pets are doing with texts and videos/pictures. Even my timid cat let Stephanie hold him, that's saying a lot! Knowledgeable and professional I would highly recommend them!!
We had an amazing experience with Happy Paws. We were gone for 10 days and Stephanie visited and took care of our cat daily and I know Alfie was one happy kitty for the company. Stephanie even sent us pics and videos to show us how well they were getting along. It was fun to see and very reassuring. When we returned, Alfie was very relaxed and happy to see us. In the past when we would leave him alone for a couple of days he would whine at us for a good hour, but not this time. I highly recommend Happy Paws and will definitely use them again in the future. 🥰
Stephanie is the best! She has watched our pup over several long weekends for us. She is a pure animal lover, I am never concerned about the well being of our dog while he is in her care. We plan to continue to use Stephanie for the foreseeable future.
Stephanie is an amazing human! My dog Jax has been afraid of humans for the longest time… Pretty much ever since I rescued him from Bradshaw Humane Society… Within two visits Stephanie was able to leash Jax by herself and he’s actually got to the point now where he will do the play Bow and give her kisses 🐕❤️🌈. If you ever need someone to assist with dog walks… Sleep overs… or take your pet to other appointments Happy Paws is the place! My life has improved having them in it… I know that sounds dramatic but it’s true! One less thing I have to worry about 🥰 Sincerely, Lori Mitchell RN Owner of Aesthetics bu Lori
We are very pleased with the service. Stephanie took such a great care of our puppy. She is very friendly and loves all dogs of any breeds. She is very knowledgeable and patient with dogs. We are so to find her.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!! Stephanie and her team are the best I have a little Bully that is very timid at first when meeting new dogs and people. Stephanie made sure and took the time with each new person and dog and exposed him to many things that affected him in such a positive way!!!
My pups have found a wonderful home away from home! Stephanie is a calm, loving presence for the dogs and they really respond to her. So grateful to be able to leave them with peace of mind knowing they’re looked after and happy!
Sue and Michael are amazing! I can always trust that my dog is well taken care of when I use their services. They are so considerate and always send pictures and updates. Highly recommend.
If you are looking for peace of mind go with the Leashlady. Sue is great with your pets, responsible, dependable, and someone you can trust to access and secure your home 👍🏼 …
The Leash Lady has been easy to work with and our dog seems very comfortable - it’s always comforting to know he is being left in very capable and caring hands!
Always very accommodating. Takes very good care of my dog Lake. Highly recommended. My husband and I are very happy.
In response to being told you are you are libelling me: I think using a business that is meant to be caring for animals to cause upset and attempt intimidation by cyber stalking is very worrying, not the sort of person I would trust with a houseplant let alone a treasured family pet. I had no idea this review thing existed until it was pointed out that my name and where I live had been used here but you know all about me? If I had known and left you a duff review I would have been much more created and used a much funnier name like say Thomas McPoopscooper and given you more than a three word explanation of why you are so awful but I didn't because it wasn't me. I think you should stop lying now, no one cares about you or what you do until you draw attention to innocent people who want zero to do with you. I will be seeking legal advice.
Sue has true concern for the pets in her care. You simply can't go wrong having her take care of your furry friends!
Definitely recommend! Very dependable, highly professional. Kitties always very happy when we return!
Worst service ever
I am so thankful to Vickie at BOW -WOW PET SITTING!!! I am the kind of dog mom that puts my 2 boys Doug and Rusty (dachshunds) above myself. I set my house up so that THEY are happy and comfortable. I have a low bed,, doggie ramps everywhere and there are dog toys all over. I would say that they are a little spoiled ❤️🐾🐾❤️ I only trust a few people with my dogs. I recently moved to Fair Oaks. I searched online for pet sitting and called Vicky, the owner of Bow-Wow pet sitting and boarding. I asked many questions. I then looked at her reviews on Yelp and decided that I would give her a call back. She was able to take my dogs the next day. She was so great! My dogs were barking and have separation anxiety. I immediately felt comfortable with Vicky. She is very kind and obviously loves animals. Her house is set up perfectly - she can separate dogs if necessary but still see them, they are not locked away in a closed room. She had a big wonderful yard to play in. When I picked up my boys they were happy and not stressed. Now they WANT to go there! Even though I'm done moving I intend to to take them to Vicky's at least once a week because they love her and I don't take them in the car and leave them when running errands. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND VICKIE AND BOW -WOW PET SITTING!!! She is reasonably priced and very accommodating. ******************!!!!💕
I am appalled at the neglect and inhumane treatment of my dog. We left my dog Roxxy there for the weekend over 4th of July. We made sure they were aware she was a rescue dog with anxiety, and we were guaranteed that our dog would not be left alone during the fireworks. After we got our dog home, that night we realized her mouth was severally injured. Apparently, she had been left outside in a metal crate during fireworks while the owners of Bow Pow Pet sitting went to the liquor store, and tried to chew her way out causing the damage to her mouth. Multiple teeth had been broken off, her gums were destroyed and she had literally chewed so long and hard the bone of her jaw was damaged. We were never notified that our dog had been injured under their care, we had to wait to find out when we got her back, and with the extent of the injury being as bad as it was I have a hard time believing there were no signs of blood or injury when it happened. The surgery to fix my dog's mouth was over $3,500, which Bow Wow Pet sitting never even tried to repay. I felt the owners of Bow Wow pet sitting were unprofessional and down right negligent to have let this happen. To top it all off, after multiple complaints from us they still have pictures of my dog on their website, against my approval, to advertise their business. Usually I am not one to write angry online reviews but I feel strongly that they were negligent towards my dog.
My dogs were well taken care of in a family style environment. Both had individual needs and their needs were well taken care of. Was so pleased with the great care both dogs received! Recommend!
Great attentive people who are dedicated to every animal they come across. Reasonable prices for the amount of service you receive. They always go above and beyond for their customers and our pets.
My dog loves this place his friends all go there
Bow Wow pet sitting the dogs can run around and play with other its like pershool
Best place to put your dogs
Very accommodating,.l
Happy pets stay here
Vickie is great
I can't recommend Always Available Pet Sitting highly enough as a dog sitting service! Rose is incredibly conscientious, timely, and organized, which makes leaving my dog in her care completely stress-free. Her kindness and professionalism shine through in everything she does, and it's clear she genuinely cares about my dog as if he were her own. Rose is a fantastic communicator—she always keeps me updated, which brings me such peace of mind when I'm away. I can travel confidently knowing my dog is in responsible and loving hands. Thank you, Rose, for being such an exceptional caregiver
My cat, Jewel, is very shy and hides from strangers. However, when Rose gently called out to her, rather than run and hide, she remained inquisitive and let Rose pet her. It was then, I knew Jewel would be fine while I was gone. Rose sent me daily updates with pictures. Jewel was well cared for, and I will be using Rose for all my best sitting needs! Thank you Rose for your invaluable service and professionalism.
Rose’s pet care service was most excellent! On very short notice, she responded to my request, had every detail covered for the care of my kitty and had such a professional demeanor, I felt confident in her service. She sent me texts and pictures each day and I can’t say enough about the trust she instilled ! Thanks Rose🌹 …
Rose has been our go-to pet sitter for three years now. We have two large male house cats. Rose provides peace of mind while we are gone, in part because she posts us by text early each morning with a short report on that morning's visit and how the cats are. She also makes written notes on each visit and leaves them for us. She is careful and conscientious and very easy to work with. We have never had a problem with her service and recommend Always Available whole- heartedly.
Rose watched my two boxers for me. It was somewhat nerve wracking having a non family member watch my girls. But Rose is very professional and thorough. During the meet and greet my dogs seemed to settle fairly well with her presence too. She texts a picture and update every day. Would definitely use her again!
I recently used always available pet sitting for a long weekend away from my pet. Rose was fantastic. She was very thorough on what services I should expect & walked me through everything. I received photos of my kitty every day that I was gone & even came home to a very cute thank you card and notes from each day she visited with kitty. Excellent service. I will absolutely be working with Rose again. Highly recommend if you need to head out of town and can't bring your fur babies along for the trip.
Rose was amazing and easy to work with. We never tried pet sitting before so I would text her frequently but she was always so friendly and reassuring . She would send photos and updates. She was also very thorough during the planning process and we would definitely use her again. We are so excited to have found her. Thank you Rose!
Rose was amazing with our animals! She took care of everything and kept us informed our whole trip. Can't recommend highly enough, we will definitely be using her again!
I recently had Rose watch my eight dogs (two large dogs and six small dogs) and my two cats. I was gone overnight and my pets are not used to this. However I am pleased to say that my pets have taken kindly to Rose and they were well taken care of when I was gone. Rose sent text pictures with each of her visits. Unfortunately she had to clean up after one of my dogs but the place was immaculate when I got home. I highly recommend rose for pet sitting and I plan on using her in the future.
We highly recommend Rose, Always Available Pet Sitting. Right from the beginning Rose was organized and business-like, taking note of the names of each pet, the amount of food, times of day to be fed, locations for food, treats, etc. Rose cared for our 4 dogs and cat for 9 days while we went on vacation. She did not hesitate to come an extra day when our flight was canceled last minute. Rose did a lot more than just feed our fur babies. She spent time playing with them as well as watching their behavior to make sure they got along and played together safely. (We have 3 large dogs and a small beagle.) She even called us to make sure we were comfortable with what she saw. She left notes from each day and also texted us notes and photos. It’s clear Rose loves animals and has experience with animal behavior. We felt so much more at ease on our vacation knowing Rose was watching our pets. We will be using Rose’s services again.
A couple months ago I contacted them regarding their services. Took them 3 weeks to respond and the response was poorly written and didn't give a good impression. Didn't use their services.
My pups, Alfonso and Oillie love staying at the Best Friends Pet Hotel! They are so quiet on the way home. Exhausted from fun! They love the staff. Constantly running around them even as we are trying to leave! Haha They are so happy. I have them groomed after each stay, they smell wonderful!! Pictures from different pickups!! Another stay! Groomed before pick up! Handsome and happy🐶🐶 Love the bow tie on Ollie 🤭
I am so glad Miranda and Sunflower Grooming have joined forces with Best Friends Pet Hotel! It’s a perfect match and one-stop shopping! Miranda is not only an amazing groomer, but she’s also a dog lover! Her entire staff is sweet, caring and professional! I will never have anyone else care for my animals!
My big boy Bengal, Dezi had a great time here. The facility was very nice and clean too. He got his own two room suite! The staff made him feel safe and loved and he wasn’t stressed when I picked him up. This was his first time away from home and I wasn’t sure how it would go. He will be coming back to visit again.
I have used Best Friends since 2002. All of my dogs have done great and I had a dog with some “issues” and she was handled well. There were never any problems after their visit at the “spa” as we referred to it. My two small dogs just returned from their spa visit and Max was on medication and he did great and our Gracie was happy too. Highly recommend!! 🐾🐾
Kirby's first boarding experience at Best Friends was wonderful! He got along great with the other cats, and it was clear the staff truly care for animals. I highly recommend this Best Friends location for anyone needing extended pet care.
I know Miranda as a professional groomer and a kind and sympathetic girl. I love the new home where she and her staff will continue taking care of our pets. I recommend Sunflower Grooming and Best Friends Pet Hotel to everyone who's looking for quality service, attention and love to animals!
We brought our Golden, Lola, here for the first time for a full grooming experience. She is terrified of loud noises--the girl who met us at check-in was extremely gentle with our dog, calming, and got her to settle down. We knew immediately that Lola was in good hands. They brought Lola out looking better than she ever has at any other grooming appointment--complete with a fresh bandana and bow. We loved our experience here!
Best Friends pet boarding, daycare in Carmichael. The staff here is awesom! My Pebbles and BamBam really enjoy their overnight stays! They get lots of attention, treats and best of all have piece of mind knowing the loving care they are getting! Highly recommend boarding and Doggy day camp!
They took such great care of my big boy Benjamin! I’ve heard so many great things about this place and I’m so glad I finally gave them a try. I will be back for more overnight stays and daycare!
Murphy and Finley had a great stay at Best Friends Pet Hotel. They took good care of them and were accommodating when I arrived slightly after hours to pick them up because of traffic. You could tell they really care about the animals in their care. I recommend!
I used to be a loyal customer and highly recommended them, but I unfortunately can no longer support them after having a deeper understanding of their protocols. Before getting into the worst of it, I'd like to point out that they have astro turf which unsurprisingly causes dogs' feet to get irritated on hot days. In their report cards, they will simply say they noticed they were getting irritated and treated them, but probably won't tell you why unless you ask. I started as a client with my husky Freya. Unfortunately she died in their care due to unknown causes. Their story was she was outside and started having irregular breathing, so they took her inside where she collapsed and died. She was 9 and had glaucoma, so I gave them the benefit of the doubt even though she was otherwise a healthy dog who had no problems going on 3-5mile runs with me when the weather wasn't too hot. Looking back, maybe I should have been more skeptical. When I got another husky mix, Loki, I started boarding him there and he loved it. However after a little over a year of boarding him there with no major issues other than being an overly enthusiastic husky puppy, he developed a food aggression issue while in their care. Freya had some food aggression issues when I first got her and I have taken care of multiple dogs with the problem before, so I am very well educated on prevention and training for it. When I asked about their feeding protocols, they stated that they simply drop the food in front of the dog, leave the room for an hour, and then come back in to take it away to get pressure washed whether there is food left or not. When Loki first demonstrated food aggression, their response was to attempt to remove the bowl with their foot or a fake prosthetic hand. This is textbook what not to do and will absolutely CAUSE AND INTESIFY food aggression. When I pointed this out and suggested that they should implement standard sit/stay feeding protocol, use redirection techniques, or to not try to take the food bowl away while the dog is still in the room, their response was essentially that they don't have time to do that and don't want to train their staff in standard dog handling practices. They even commented that past customers have suggested the same thing. This tells me that they are entirely aware that their protocols can cause food aggression and that they refuse to do anything about it. Apart from this incident, Loki seemed to love all the workers I saw him interact with. They all looked on the younger side, but they were extremely friendly and positive. I just wish the owners cared enough to train them better.
From my work account 3 years ago: I have a Husky mix who’s a handful, mindful but energetic. The staff have always been patient and loving towards Luna. I feel blessed to live close enough to use Local Bark. Last year I traveled almost 70% of the time for work. If it wasn’t for them I’m not sure how I would’ve gotten by… EDIT: I have since moved to Midtown Sacramento so I no longer go there but or Pomeranian gets groomed at their Power Inn location "Response from the owner 2 years ago Oh Luna! 🤗 She keeps us on our toes and we love that crazy girl so much! Thank you for the great review Walter and thank you for sharing your girl with us!" I am closing out reviews mistakenly completed in my work account
Amazing staff. Reasonable prices. All types of services from Daycare and Boarding, to Grooming, to Day Training, Boarding School, and Puppy Prep School. THEY EVEN HAVE A WALK-IN POOL MADE SPECIAL FOR THE DOGS!! Large & Small Dogs are welcome, as well as PITBULL FRIENDLY!!! You can tell the staff LOVE dogs, and genuinely care about what they do. Very trustworthy, welcoming, and easy to leave your pets with. The girls at the front desk and attentive and polite, and make things like checking-in your dog, or providing any information needed about the business easy. I highly recommend The Local Bark for all your Dog Care, Boarding, Grooming, Training, and occasional swimming needs!
Our dog has a great time at Local Bark... always comes home happy and tired. It's awesome that they have a pool that he can enjoy, one of the reasons I picked Local Bark in the first place. The facilities appear to be very clean and the staff are always nice. Oh, and they post pictures every day on their facebook page... so it's fun to see what your dog has been up to. Definitely recommend!
We love the Local Bark! Our dog has been coming here since she was a puppy ( she is now 9! ). We don’t use it as often as we did in the past as their prices have gone up, but when we need care for her overnight this is our go to place. They have different sized “rooms” for the dogs to stay, all day play time out back and offer grooming services as well. Our dog is happy here!
There is nothing that excites our yellow lab, Austin, more than going to the Local Bark. I usually take Austin to the Local Bark, but the first time my husband took him he passed the turn to go in to the Local Bark. Immediately Austin started barking and vocalizing. We are sure he was saying, "Dad, you missed it! You missed it! Turn around! Turn around now!! Austin just graduated from their 18 day in house training. Ivyonnne is a great trainer and Austin has made great strides in his obedience and self control. The Local Bark is an absolutely wonderful place for dogs. Austin gives it five paws up.
My puppy is very energetic and needs to socialize more with doggy friends. This was his first day at his evaluation. It made my day when I saw his picture, he looks happy and looks like he's smiling. He was happy and very tired when I picked him up because he must have played a lot. I will definitely take him on a regular basis.
Ella, world's most awesome BorderCollie loves the Local Bark to play and stay. The staff are amazing, caring and professional. To the owners and staff...your the best!
Editing my review after picking up my dog.I'm so happy I found a good boarding facility! The local bark is definitely a five-star place. My big mush of a pitbull really enjoyed her 13 night stay here over Christmas!I love the pictures I got to see on Facebook of her enjoying herself. I picked her up and she was so happy and clean, they gave her a bath for me. She's practically dancing in the waiting room while we were leaving. I like that the local bark has the most rigorous vaccine requirements in the areabecause my dog came home very healthy so I appreciate it! Also not much more expensive than any place around it's affordable in my opinion and they provide trusting and safe care for your dogs. Highly recommended I will definitely use again!
Chloe has been going to the Local Bark since she was 16 weeks old. She loves all the attention she gets from the staff and has a blast with the other dogs during Play Care and Overnight visits. Love them.
I seriously cannot recommend Camp Bow Wow enough for your pups. I recently went on vacation where I had to put my pup in daycare (first time ever doing that) and let me tell you - Watching my girl on camera and seeing how happy she is here warmed my heart and made missing her a little bit easier. The team was great about communication, organized and made sure everyone was safe and happy. It made going on my vacation so much less stressful knowing she was in good hands. A big THANK YOU to the Camp ❤️ -Annie 🐶
Doggie Daycare & Boarding(Staycation) are highly recommended by our Sasuke & Sumo. The staffs are amazing & super friendly. Communication & response are phenomenal. They take care of our fur babies while we are away or out of town. I feel at peace that our babies are in wonderful hands & caring hearts.
I love how much space for the dogs you have. That there is an indoor & outdoor area for them. I love how well trained everyone is and that safety is a top concern! That there is a veterinary right next door puts a lot of ease to me mind. I really like you offer grooming, and one-on-one time for dogs as well! Also Luna, our dog, had a blast there!
10/10 recommend. Super friendly staff and my dog loves it here. I can trust them with boarding and daycare. They even threw my dog a birthday party and took pictures. The cameras are a perk, so you can check on your pup.
We are very happy with Camp Bow Wow for daycare and boarding. It is great to be able to look in on the pups with the cams. Staff is always very attentive and quick to go above and beyond to help with our precious doggies.
Highly, highly recommend!! My fiancé & I have a little 6-month-old Yorkiepoo, Pepper, who needs full-day care 2 days/week -- I couldn't be happier with Camp Bow Wow! They were super communicative & kind from my 1st contact with them. Seth in particular is great -- he was very welcoming & knowledgeable when we brought Pepper in for her 1st interview day. He also remembers her name & talks to her so kindly every time we drop off & pick up. Prices are great, especially the packages. Some of them come out to being $33/day, which is miles cheaper than any dog sitter, & your pup gets to play all day with doggie friends! They offer cool add-on (still very affordable) enrichment programs that would be great for any pup -- snuggle time for nervous/cuddly ones, play time for high-energy ones, & a lot more! They also send you pics of enrichment if you choose to do one, which are way too cute (I added some of when Pepper did snuggle time!). I also love the cameras; I check in a few times a day & it helps me feel at ease to see Pepper sniffing around/napping/playing. It always warms my heart when I get to see a staff member in the play rooms too -- they are all gentle & kind, & give out tons of pets. Organized, efficient, clean, & caring. Couldn't ask for more! Thanks Camp Bow Wow <3
Camp Bow Wow in Fair Oaks is a warm and sefe place for our new rescue chihuahua mix. The staff is so friendly! Our dog loves going. He starts yelping with excitement as soon as we turn into the parking lot, and he is always greeted by his name. We highly recommend Camp Bow Wow for your pet daycare needs.
Friendly place. Folks here cared for my pooch for the day. The best thing I liked is on their app. You can monitor your dog via video cam. When a dog used the restroom, staff immediately cleaned the waste, then mopped the area. Staff was always present.
I’ve had my dog at daycare and boarding here. The counselors are attentive and interacts with the dogs in their care. Love that they have an outdoor and indoor area for dogs to go between, weather permitting. The webcam is a plus though a bit buggy in the app.
I really appreciated the time and details in testing dogs for camp. It is very thorough and gives a peace of mind. Plus the staff were amazing!
