Lezlie was great! She was very responsive to any questions we had when working with her to set up petting sitting for our dog Dexter! She was fast to respond and detailed in her replies. She also asked lots of questions about Dexter to ensure she knew what our expectation and what Dexter's needs were. She took Dexter on lots of adventures besides dog walks. She went and visited friends in the east bay, took him out on hikes with her friend's dogs as well as making sure he got plenty of exercise on his regular walks. She was very personable and professional. She was able to figure out any issue on her own and even reached out once because she was concerned about Dexter scratching his ear and asked if it would be OK to have him checked out at the vet if needed. She was very kind and with the dog and our neighbors, (everyone knows the dog on our block, so they saw someone different taking care of him!). They had nothing but good things to say about Lezlie. Dexter was very calm and relaxed when we returned home, so I know he was well cared for! He was even on a walk with Lezlie when we did arrive back home. Lezlie was a great dog sitter and houseguest and everything worked out perfectly. She left our house very clean and even had clean sheets on the bed upon our return! I would 100% recommend her if you are looking for someone to take care of your home and pets!
Lisa and Kris are lovely people. Lisa picked me up from the bus stop when I first arrived and took me to the store to buy a few groceries. I got to know their family over dinner and spent the night before they left for Mexico in the morning. Everything around the house was explained to me clearly and they made sure I had everything I needed to be comfortable. It was the first time Daisy had been left with a sitter and she was nervous to begin. It took her a day to adjust to me, and then I gained her trust. Shane arrived a couple days later and she was also nervous with him to begin, but came around more quickly because she trusted me. Once she was used to us, she was the cutest dog. She loves cuddles and will sleep for hours on your lap downstairs. Lucy has a big bark when you first meet her but that very quickly goes away she is the sweetest. She is always happy to see you and look up at you with those big eyes. At first Daisy wasn’t so keen on walks (we had a lot of snow) but we soon found the trick. If I would walk Lucy in front, Daisy would follow me with Shane. There are a lot of nice trails near the river to explore with them. Overall we had a great stay and miss Lucy & Daisy already!
Erin had to cancel on us at the last minute. She was very apologetic about our need to make alternative plans for our trip to South Carolina.
One of the most endearing things about Bella is how she’ll bury her head between your legs while you’re standing, and then allow you to offer your best ear/neck/shoulder massage. She’s a very sweet, soft-spoken dog, so watch for her cues; back-door standing for going in and out; bedside standing for rare nighttime bathroom outings. She’s a frequent napper and wonderful walker, appreciating even short outings. Jen and Dan are most welcoming and gracious and have mastered the art of getting sitters quickly up to speed. I had no questions for them during my sit, because the Welcome Guide covered it all. Their lovely, spacious home is in a picturesque, quiet development conveniently located to shopping, and has a lower-level, theater-quality, big-screen entertainment area that will have movie fans searching for a tissue to wipe away an appreciative tear. Oh yes, fellow sitters, this is a prized opportunity, so only submit your very best applications!
Nathalie was a wonderful host and the cats were so very sweet. It is a lovely flat in Sheperds Bush with three underground stations and one overground station within walking distance. Nathalie made the transition so very easy with comprehensive instructions. She generously supplied some food staples for my stay (she has such a generous and kind spirit!).I was there over New Year's and she had a delivery of treats for me and her two cats (we had a great feast together). It was comfortable and so very nice. Now for the important part...the cats: Jack and Portia were so loving and gentle and I loved playing "auntie" to those sweet babies. They kept me warm at night, kept me entertained during the day, and I became so very fond of them. All in all, it was a brilliant stay.
Trish and Ash were great hosts! We had the pleasure of looking after Lani, Whiskey and Banksy for a few days and we enjoyed every second. The dogs are so loving and sweet. We were left with an extremely organised house sitting and feeding guide, which was very helpful. The dogs had a little dispute one day which we were a little concerned about. But a quick call to Trish and 2 seconds later we were reassured and the dogs were back to their normal selves. We were sad to say goodbye to the doggies, especially Banksy. She will be by your side ready for snuggles and kisses at every moment. Thank you both again for a great stay!

We have an anxious, skittish dog, who is also older and needs extra TLC. We have been taking her to Harvest Moon for over 2 years. When she walks away from us, with the staff, when we drop her off, she is happy to go! That speaks so much. That she is comfortable there. It's hard to leave her, but we couldn't feel any better than to see her happy, and to get daily updates on her while we are gone. And she looks great when we pick her up. No signs of stress, just a happy older pup!
This was the first time...I really loved this place. Great up-front communication..daily updates with photos. If I asked a question quick response. Great features...they also offer baths...nature walks...play ...My dog is deaf so I opted for her to be in the yard alone. Bring your own food and toys or they have food. My dog was very happy and not stressed at all. Thank you to a great staff.
This was the first time boarding our dogs in 5 years due to a horrible experience. Beth and the team made me feel comfortable before we even left. The text updates were great and to see the smiles on our pups faces made us feel at ease! The next trip away, our pups will be back to visit! Thank you to all of you for helping us feel better about who's taking care of our boys!
Grover, my two legged dog getting some special loving. Everything is as advertised, with friendly and kind people looking after your dogs
We love the staff at Harvest Moon. Our pup, Greta, loves them too. Daily picture updates keep us informed while we are away. Reasonable prices, optional add ons for nature walks, nail trim, take home bath. They are just the absolute best. So very glad we found them .
So Great with Our Fur Baby!!! Would recommend highly for the care of your fur baby for love & care! They send pictures everyday which I absolutely loved!!
Wonderful staff and they always take great care of our pup Yoshi. We really appreciate everything they do for us.
Such a great place to leave your pup. The employees are always so happy to spend time and care for your dog. They keep you informed with daily pictures of your pup. The kennels are cleaned and well taken care of. They take care of small and large size dogs. I have been very pleased and confident that Harvest moon is a safe place for my dog. Looking forward to having them help me more in the future!
These are some of the most caring folks. Our dog suffers from extreme anxiety but not with Beth and her amazing team
I found Harvest Moon through Google & I AM SO HAPPY that I did!! The ladies who work there are so gentle and super loving. The whole booking process is simple, they offer nature walks and nail trimmings. They sent us photo updates throughout her visit (which helped SO much, as this was our first puppy & never had to leave her!) All around a very pleasant experience. I would definitely recommend Harvest Moon!! Thank you, Ladies, for giving our little Eevee babe so much love & cuddles!!
