Long-term traveler and pet lover
Christine was super responsive and organised while coordinating the house handover. She was very self sufficient, and took the initiative to experiment with different litter box arrangements and bought some puppy pads to deal with our cat’s recent urinary issues. The house was clean and sheets were washed when we returned. Would be happy to welcome her back!

I ❤️ Animals
Amanda and her daughters took wonderful care of the dogs. Both dogs seemed happy and the house looked great when we returned home. Amanda also sent multiple updates and pictures during our weekend away which made us feel at ease.

I am a dog lover, especially labs! Dig quirkiness of cats too.
Best Housesitter ever! From the beginning, Todd was responsive, punctual, friendly, flexible, and reliable. He kept us apprised of his travel plans and arrival time. He took excellent care of the house and left it cleaner than he found it. From his messages during our trip, we felt he cared about and truly liked our pets and we knew we had left them in wonderful hands. He kept up with our active border collie and might have actually tired him out! Todd was great to work with, we’d love to have him back, and we highly recommend him to anyone who loves their home and worries about their pets. He’s awesome.

Reliable, animal-loving PhD candidate will care for your pets & home like my own
Callie was incredibly sweet and thorough with questions about prep and cleaning after the stay. I would highly recommend Callie for any sort of sit! I felt super secure knowing she was at my place with my pets.

Clean and responsible, pet & plant loving young professional
Gabby and her partner were very thoughtful sitters. They took great care of Buddy and made sure he got all his walks and potty breaks. I wish they were a bit more proactive wirh updates but they did respond when I reached out. Overall I had a great experience with them.

Gentle, quiet and organized. I would love to meet your cat(s)!
When one is away, it is hard to know what is going on at home, but Melissa kept me posted and sent photos of the girls. There was one problem and she researched and handled it well. Probably better than I would have. When I returned home, the kitties were very happy and the house neat and clean. I would recommend Melissa and be very happy if she wanted to housesit for me again.

Kitty Aunty Supreme: I'll love on your fur babies while you explore the world!
This is our second time that Marina watched our cats and she did a wonderful job. We have a new crazy kitten and she played with her a lot. We got lots of photos of all cats and everyone looked happy. The house was clean when we got home and cats were content. We would happily have Marina stay with our cats again!

Retired teacher excited to pet and house sit for you!
We could not have asked for a better zeewoi than Tonya. She was great with communication and it was clear that she loved our dog, Piper. Our home was immaculate when we returned and we look forward to asking her again in the future.

Positively Purrfect Pet & House Sitter
Riley took good care of our pets and was reliable. He was friendly and communicative. He did leave some dirty dishes, and forgot a couple of belongings he had to come back for. Overall, it was a positive experience!

Kind and Helpful
This is my first time using zeewoi and I couldn't be more pleased with Peggy. She was such a joy to have in my home and took such good care of Max & Beau for the 10 days I was out of town. The puppies were walked at least twice a day - what a trooper Peggy was for taking them out at 5:30 am. She kept me informed if there was anything going on. I know my puppies were loved and would definitely have Peggy back again. Thank you so much Peggy!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Joi did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and two guinea pigs, as well as caring for my home! She is coming back in November for a long sit while I am out of the country and we all can’t wait. Joi had experience with rabbits and jumped right in with guinea pig care. She is so calm around them that they were sitting on her lap day one! She spent time preparing their vegetables and kept their enclosure and room clean, which requires daily effort. She even washed the floor mats in their room so it was fresh when I returned home. She went above and beyond sending me daily photos and videos so I could see that everyone was healthy and happy. It was apparent to me that she spent a lot of time with my pets, which is very important so they don’t become stressed and lonely when I am away. Joi also took excellent care of my two cats. They receive daily wet food with some medication and she ensured that they received it on time. My cats barely noticed when I returned because they got so much attention from Joi. She took excellent care of my front garden flowers and my tomato and herb hydroponic gardens. These take some daily attention and time in the summer, and I returned home to them looking great! Joi is a very caring, clean, and thoughtful sitter and I hope she comes back many more times!
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home for free at Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Zeewoi cat sitters for free, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
As we are moving and it's our pups last day, we have to give happy tails the raving review they truly deserve. This place is his home away from home. I always run into employees who are possibly more excited than I am to see my own dog. They take the best care of the pups here and have the best service in town. I would gladly recommend happy tails to anyone and everyone around St Louis for doggy daycare and boarding. Thank you so much to everyone at happy tails for all the love you've shown Balto over the years. We will miss this place more than you could possibly know.
Always take the girls here. The groomers do a good job and the people all genuinely care about your pets. Only complaint I can say about “grooming” categorically is that the costs are just getting way too high . It’s not a Happy tails specific problem, it’s a widespread problem. I hope that costs come back down soon. I recommend a hat you check this place out and see if you appreciate the people as much as I do.
Happy Tails lost my dog for almost 48 hours. I have been a loyal customer for four years and what happened to me this past weekend is ridiculous. I brought both of my dogs (yellow lab and black lab) to Happy Tails on Friday, June 28, 2024 at 5:45am for boarding. I was scheduled to pick them up on Sunday, June 30, 2024 before 1pm. On Sunday at approximately 12:45pm, I arrived at Happy Tails to pick up my dogs. I paid for the boarding and then they brought, what they believed to be, both of my dogs out. They successfully brought my yellow lab out, however, they brought me the wrong black lab... I informed Happy Tails of the mistake and was told that they would get my dog and that this happens sometimes with German Shepherds and Labradors. After waiting for about 15 minutes, a worker came up appearing to be flustered and nervous. The worker and a few other workers had a meeting behind the gated area and when she walked out to the waiting room, I was informed that my dog was no longer at Happy Tails. Long story short, I dropped my dog off on Friday, June 28, 2024 at 5:45am, Happy Tails gave my dog to someone else on Friday at 2:30pm, and the person that took my dog on Friday at 2:30pm didn’t return my dog until Sunday, June 30, 2024 at 2:15pm. In other words, Happy Tails gave my dog away for 47.5 hours. I was told Happy Tails would give me a refund, however, as of the time of this posting, that has not happened. Regardless of whether or not they give me a refund, they gave my dog away. It is important to note that the person Happy Tails gave my dog to assured Happy Tails it was his dog, and he initially refused to return him when they informed him of their mistake... I will not be bringing my dogs back.
I trust Happy Tails and my 2 large babies love going here. They are a 24/7 business not only looking out for your pets but also you. If they don't pick up on the first call, please wait and call back it due to all the amazing customers they are happy to serve that sometimes you have to call back or walk in. 5/5 recommend!
I have been using Happy Tails strictly for grooming for years. I cannot say enough about the stellar customer service. The people are what make Happy Tails so great. If you are considering using Happy Tails for any of their services, i highly recommend you do.
If only I could find a hair salon where I could be transformed like the Happy Tails groomers changed my Fergus! Perfect Welsh Terrier grooming every time. Kim is amazing! See our before and after pics.
I can’t say enough about how amazing this place is. My dog has gotten groomed here twice now and every single time I am beyond happy with how she comes out. CHLOE is such a sweetheart and so talented, she spoke with me about what we want and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. My dog is usually shy but she came back like a new woman.
We left our dog with them perfectly healthy, he came back with a terrible limp on his back legs. Found out today he developed intervertebral disc disease and will be paralyzed the rest of his life. This develops from being dropped, or falling. We called Happy tails and their response is we’re not responsible for any injuries that happen during our care. BEWARE ABOUT LEAVING YOUR ANIMALS HERE!!!
My 8 month old puppy absolutely loves this place! We take her here 1-2 days a week, and she gets the socialization she needs. It is really nice to have someone else tire her out because she has boundless energy. They have also handled COVID safety measures very well.
Love everyone there! They have been so attentive to my puppy even tho we are not there every week!! The orientation was wonderful and my puppy loves everyone she has come in contact with! One day I left her for a little bit, been house hunting in the area and they were more than accommodating to take her for a short time. Thank you so much for the love you have shown to my big baby Daisey!!!
We’ve been bringing Ginger Wigglebutt, to the Watering Bowl for some time, and we can confidently say this is the best spot for dogs in St. Louis! The quality of care, the cleanliness of the location, and the overall atmosphere are unmatched. Ginger absolutely adores coming here—she knows all the staff by name (well, as much as a dog can!) and wiggles her way straight to them. The front-end customer service is phenomenal, always welcoming and kind, and they have an incredible way of putting anxious dogs (and owners) at ease. It’s clear how much they care about every pet that walks through the door. From the daycare to the boarding experience to the adorable Pawdecure we have always left feeling confident that Ginger is in the best hands. Thank you for being such a reliable, clean, and caring place for our furry family member. We wouldn’t go anywhere else! As you can see from the pictures our (and your) dog will leave happy and tired with all the fur and human interactions they will receive ❤️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff at Watering Bowl Dog Grove! Over the past five years, they have consistently provided exceptional care for our beloved Dalmatian, Charlie. From the very first day we boarded her, it was clear that the team is not only incredibly friendly but also highly knowledgeable about dog care and behavior. Every time I drop Charlie off, I know she is in safe hands, and it brings me such peace of mind. The environment is always welcoming, and it's evident that the staff genuinely cares for each dog like their own. Charlie always comes home happy and well-exercised, and I can’t thank them enough for that! It's also great to see that they go above and beyond to accommodate all types of weather, ensuring our furry friends are still getting their playtime and socialization. Thank you, Watering Bowl Dog Grove, for being an amazing place for Charlie and for all the love and care you provide. We truly appreciate everything you do!
We decided to take out first will long vacation together in several years and decided it would be in our best interest to board our dogs. With so many options we called several places vetoed a free and had a sniff around the watering bowl on Hanley. Everything went great besides some anxiety which was to be expected since we had not personally sent either of our dogs to a facility for boarding or daycare before. The staff was very friendly and out our worries at ease. A few days before our trip we received a call that their location flooded from the rain we had but dog grove offered to still honor our reservation. The staff at dog grove were amazing from start to finish, helped correct issues that our two high energy puppy have returned two better mannered babies to us. Zelda and Clark are cherished by our family and they took amazing care of them, did a little training with Zelda to teach her to respect boundaries and gave us reports and updates as needed making the only thing we were stressed about very stress free. We appreciate all the staff members and well recommend and use again.
I’ve been bringing Mateo to The Watering Bowl for boarding since he was a puppy, and it has become his second home and family. The staff here has always been incredibly loving and attentive, making sure he’s happy and comfortable every time he stays. We’ve also worked with their trainer, Laura, and it’s been amazing seeing his confidence and happiness levels grow since starting daycare. Beyond the care they provide for Mateo, the staff has also become an extension of my own family. I’ve built friendships with them, and it’s clear that they care not only about Mateo but about me as well. I have complete peace of mind when I leave him here, knowing he’s in the best hands with people who truly understand and love him. I highly recommend The Watering Bowl to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and supportive environment for their pup!
I started taking my girl, Indy, to The Watering Bowl Dog Grove almost a year ago. I wanted to get her more socialized, both with dogs and new people. We started with the Stay and Train package. It worked wonders on my anxious, anti-social girl. We then migrated to daycare + extra credit. Those extra credit opportunities have helped keep up in the training she did. She is thriving! Has a new best friend almost every time she’s at daycare. I can’t recommend this place enough! The staff care so much about the dogs and Indy always comes home happy and exhausted.
The Watering Bowl is always convenient, easy and such a friendly staff. My dog thoroughly enjoys himself, makes friends and burns off most of his energy. I highly recommend the Watering Bowl for daycare and all the other services they offer.
I recently took my Airedale puppy, Winnie, to The Watering Bowl in Tower Grove, affectionately nicknamed "Dog Grove," and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and clearly passionate about dogs. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and offers plenty of space for dogs to play and socialize. Winnie goes absolutely crazy with excitement whenever she walks through the door of that building because she is so excited to be back. The team at The Watering Bowl made sure she felt comfortable and engaged, providing her with lots of attention and care. I was particularly impressed with the detailed updates and photos they sent throughout the day, allowing me to see how much fun she was having. The boarding services are equally outstanding. When I needed to go out of town, I felt completely at ease leaving Winnie in their capable hands. The staff ensured she had a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and I could tell she was well taken care of when I picked her up. Overall, The Watering Bowl in "Dog Grove" is a fantastic place for both daycare and boarding. Their dedication to the dogs' well-being and their excellent facilities make it a top choice for any pet owner. I highly recommend them!
Our dog has been a regular at The Watering Bowl Dog Grove almost from the point when we adopted him in 2019. We have had obedience class, we have boarded him, and he is also a regular at Monday daycare. The staff love him and he adores them. Within a couple of weeks of attending, he started recognizing landmarks on the way and wagging his tail like crazy as we got close. The staff are caring and responsive and also patient with his occasional quirks and sensitive to when he might need a break. The one time in years that we had a hiccup with scheduling logistics, management went above and beyond to make it right. They must have been scrambling since the facility maintenance at another site, but you would never know it in the staff’s demeanor and care. Our dog is a little guy - under 20 lbs with shortish legs - and I have always felt that he is safe and cared for even though he is sure in his own mind that the big dogs are his ideal playmates (they often are!) His weekly visits to the Watering Bowl make our guy a happier, healthier, well socialized pup and I always feel welcomed and cheered by meeting the staff. Oh! And they are also very talented photographers and videographers. They’ve taken some of the best pictures we have of him:) TWB is the Best!
The Dogs love going to The Watering Bowl. They are treated with kindness and love. They play all day with dog friends and come home extremely happy. We love the pictures and video they post as well.
Our dogs love the Watering Bowl! The staff is so great with them and so attentive. They always know our dogs when they walk in the door and provide notes after playtime!
I think my little tucker was more happy than I was after his grooming. When I first got my poodle miniature he was in bad shape. I bought some puppy grooming supplies to try to clean him up. But even with the aftermath Bar K did a good job. Dispute all the bad reviews I used to work here so I know how they handle and treat our puppy kiddos. Nothing can go wrong when it comes to Bar K. I would pick them over Pet Smart any Day.
Our dog was a pandemic pup, and a 5-year-old when we rescued her from a shelter, so she’s not very socialized. They warned us that she did not like going to the vet or the groomer. But from the first time we took her to get groomed at Kennelwood at Bar K, she was fine, apart from some very minor grumbling. They treat her well and I think she knows she’s being cared for. Big paws up from us!
We took our dog here to get trained, trying to understand the root cause of his jumping issues and Brittany was phenomenal! She was able to diagnose and give us tools in order to help train our dog. Definitely recommend.
**UPDATE: Manager called to discuss my concerns about this appointment and were very attentive to the concerns! - Customer Service is noted and we will be back to give them another grooming try in the future!* :-) Recently took our dog to get groomed, and the check in was smooth and we discussed preferences, I explained how he has knots on the fur under his belly and legs...upon getting my dog picked up, we were not impressed. The fur on his legs was barely clipped nor brushed, along with the knots were still under his belly. I had to cut them.out and brush him when getting home. The dog cut overall just looked incomplete and/or rushed.
We were in STL for the day and needed doggie day care. Bar K was close to our destination, looked good online and convenient, so we took our dog. It's GREAT! Quick to check in, great staff, Olive seemed very happy. And, they have a bar/restaurant attached with a bigger dog park, that we had a beer in after our day. Highly recommend
Bar K is FABULOUS!!! Great concept and fulfilled to the limit! Can’t think of anything they didn’t address! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, this place! Great for dogs and their people! My Dog belongs to the Country Club and I get to go too! Soooo much fun! 💥❤️👍🏻💥 …
I have brought my dog to play several times! Staff is always friendly and attentive. I brought her for her first professional grooming today and Ky’ara did a fantastic job. We will be back for maintenance brushes and future grooming. Thanks a million Ky’ara!
We needed a good place for a day camp to keep our boy while we did some exploring. Came across Stay! And gave them a call 15 mins out. They needed his vaccination records and kept him FOR FREE the first time to see if it was a good fit. When ever in the area we will definitely be back. They looked after him well! Thank you!
This review is of their obedience training. While on the surface it may appear our dog learned some skills. It became apparent in the last week or 2 of her training something happened. Stella Blue went from a happy go lucky pup to an anxious and scared pup. Which after hundreds of dollars spent with behavior specialists, we will spend hundred if not thousands more with a DVACB doctor. Likley will cost more than the almost $2k we spent on training and unintentionally breaking her. :(. So buyer be ware. Their training isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
I am very pleased with the service I was provided on my first visit. They let me tour the facility and showed me where my pup would be hanging out during the day while I toured the city when passing through. Highly recommend! We even got a little report card at the end describing my pups day!
My 4 year old goldendoodle just finished a 3 week training session with Kailee and saw tremendous progress. My dog is an anxious, reactive dog (yay Covid puppies) that needed some serious work and Kailee is simply a magician. Within three weeks of working with Kailee, she now can walk really well and can ignore most of the distractions that made walking her a nightmare. She's also learned a few other commands that help her control her energy and anxious tendencies. She truly exceeded my expectations and we are continuing to work on them and look forward to some periodic refreshes with Kailee. My dog does not love humans she doesn't know, but absolutely loves and trusts Kailee and we simply cannot recommend her as a trainer enough! Well worth the time and cost and would do it all again in a heartbeat. Not to mention, the rest of the staff here is amazing and treated my dog so well.
We have been taking our King Charles Cavalier there since he’s been about about five months old so for about a total of 3 1/2 months. I wanted to see the facility when we got there just to see what it was like and they said that wasn’t allowed, but I still went ahead and sent him one day a week until today. The facility now has cameras where you can see your dogs so that may be happy that I could check in on him. When I checked in on him today, he was kennel and I wasn’t sure why while the other dogs ran around and played. I called to see why he was kennel and was told that he had been trying to mount some of the other dogs. Now we have never been told that he tried doing this in the past and we’ve had him at other facilities with dogs and friends and training classes and he never has attempted to do this with another dog or us but of course there’s always a first for everything so I was like OK what’s your Policy for handling this situation and they said we create them for an hour and then take them out and if they do it again, we create them for another hour and so. First of all, I wasn’t happy that he had been being created without me knowing it and then using that as a form of punishment as all our trainers we’ve ever had with our dogs have said do not use the crate as a farm a punishment.. So I also asked if this was an ongoing issue and the one girl said yes and I said well if it’s been an ongoing issue why have we not been told about this in the past. So I went to go pick him up and I talked to the people in charge. One gentleman agreed with me that that was a little rash for him to be kenneled up And then the general manager said no that’s their policy which which it’s their right to have that policy, but I think it’s also my right to be notified as a pet parent that this has been an issue however, the gentleman that worked there said he looked back in the files and it’s never been documented that our dog has done this in the past. So I’m not sure what to believe but I don’t like the idea that he’s being created and not given any explanation to us, nor would I I know, except for the fact that I saw him and asked why. I’ve decided to take him out of this facility because I’ve taken him the multiple training classes and he’s a very well behaved dog and I’m not just saying that cause he’s mine and usually if you correct him something once or twice, he is really responsive. I called a pet trainer who’s really high qualified pet trainer and she said she would not take him there either as that should not be a form of punishment. Just wanna make anyone that’s going to take their dog there to make sure they watch the cameras and see what’s going on because they don’t communicate anything to you. They just make it sound like everything’s fine and take your money and then when you see something they tell you it’s been an ongoing issue. I kind of doubt it, but who knows .
We have been taking our husky mix here ever since we adopted him and the employees here have made it so stress free and incredibly convenient since we live in an apartment with a dog who adores other dogs and human company. We will continue bringing our canine companions here for as long as we can!
We recently brought in our dog, Timmy, for training, and No Leash Needed was phenomenal! Always extremely communicative and flexible, and every staff member is so kind. We had a phenomenal experience with our trainer Kaylee, who set an excellent obedience foundation with our dog in just two weeks. Would recommend No Leash Needed Hampton and Kaylee to anyone!
We've had our dogs stay at several doggie daycares, but we were looking for a place where they could truly be comfortable. So far, No Leash Needed Hampton seems to fit the bill! We have one small dog who is leery of new people and dogs; and a big dog who is rambunctious and friendly to everyone. The staff were good about going slow with our stand-offish dog and handled him without incidents. To our surprise, our friendly dog turned out to be the challenge: she got into a kerfuffle with another dog who apparently was a bit too insistent on playing with our dog. The staff separated the dogs before anyone was hurt, they kept them separate for a while, and then monitored their behavior to make sure there were no further incidents. As mortified as we were that our pride and joy misbehaved, we were really grateful for the staff for both resolving the situation as well as not automatically jumping to the conclusion that our dog is unsafe around other dogs. The owner also let me take a look at their facilities - as is common with doggie daycares in the area, it can get crowded, but the facilities looked well maintained, nice, and since they're inside we didn't have to worry about heat.
I really cannot say enough great things about No Leash Needed Hampton! We boarded our dog, Morgan, for the first time, and I'm so happy it was at this location. We had an emergency trip come up and the time I had to find someone to watch him was very short notice. Being that we are fairly new to STL, it was hard to find a trustworthy caretaker. 1) because he is a pit and 2) because he doesn't do well with other (male) dogs. Being that it was such short notice and Hampton doesn't normally do individual play time, the staff was very understanding and kind to our situation, especially after I called in 3 other No Leash facilities, but they were all booked up. We were able to do a temperament test and regardless of him failing, they took him in and let us board. We were gone for 10 days and did not feel worried at all! In addition, the staff was super friendly, nice, and knowledgeable, which really put us at ease. I can tell that Morgan was well taken care of and really loved on. I love the final report cards that they sent us at the end too! I hope that you'll let us stay with you again No Leash Hampton!!!
I LOVE No Leash Need @ Hampton! The staff are great and my 9 month Lab mix absolutely loves coming here! I love that she is completely exhausted for a couple days after her play day! It's helpful to me and so good for her! She listens better when she's tired and isn't in her puppy mind. Thank you for helping me have a healthy minded pup!
Both of my dogs came here for daycare and got kennel cough. I called to see if they had anyone recently in there with kennel cough and they go “yeah we recently had an outbreak a week or two ago.” Literally no one notified me or bothered to let me know about this. Now I have two very sick dogs!! On top of that they are very expensive, so the least they could do is notify the pet parents when there is an outbreak so we can get our pets the care they need!! I’m so disappointed and frustrated with this facility. I will not bring back my dogs here. BTW this outbreak just happened so be aware!!
My sweet Rue had her first experience recently with daycare at No Leash Needed on Hampton. I appreciated their attention to detail in making sure all of her paperwork is in order before accepting her. That is really important to me because I want to make sure she’s in a safe environment. Check in went well and my sweet girl had such a good day. I also appreciate it that when I brought her for the next time, they graded her by name, and seemed excited to see her . She was definitely excited for another day to play with other dogs. The facility is very clean and the team members are very friendly. I am a fan!
We took our puppy Mischa here for puppy preschool. She loved it and we loved it. The trainers and staff I can tell honestly care about her and she REALLY loves going there. From a training standpoint, she is a much better listener and I think we’ve learned some good ways to work with her at home too. Know that you, the human, also have to put in some work too! I would highly recommend them for training.
My wife and I have been bringing our dog here for four years now and I couldn't ask for anything more in a dog daycare! We have used their training, daycare, and grooming services and I would recommend all of them. The owners and staff feel like family and genuinely care about our dog. If you're worried your dog won't like it, rest easy. Our dog runs to his leash in the morning to ask us to take him in!
I’m so grateful for Grateful Pets! Since 2019 my dog has loved coming here and I love knowing I can drop her off in a safe place for her to play with other dogs. The owners Richard and Rebecca are fantastic human beings as well their General Manager Bren who is always so genuinely friendly and attentive. Plus, they do nail trimmings for which I am extra grateful considering my dog has black nails which can make that challenging; they do such a great job! If you’re reading this because you’re trying to decide on a daycare for your beloved pet, then seriously come to Grateful Pets. Try them out. You won’t regret it!
My dogs love to go there. I have one in training right now and another who went through the training program. Richard is the best trainer you could ever ask for and all the staff is great, especially Bren!
Amazing place! My golden retriever has been going to daycare at Grateful Pets for a few years now and absolutely loves it! We also did some training with the owner Richard which helped immensely. Would recommend to anyone in the area. Thank you Bren and Richard and the rest of the staff for all of your hard work and care.
They do an excellent job trimming Roxy’s nails. Lovely staff and always a wonderful experience. They are very patient.
You always hope that your dog sitters, vets, groomers, etc. will treat your dog like they are their own. That's how my wife and I always feel leaving our dog with Rebecca and Richard at Grateful Pets. I never worry about leaving him because I know they take such good care of him. And when I pick him up he always looks great! In addition to being caring, they are incredibly knowledgeable. Rebecca is well trained as a groomer and it shows. Our old dog also has a heart condition and she always reassures me that she'll take extra good care of him. I know she means it. (she even knows doggy CPR!). I can't recommend this place enough.
Nothing but great things to say. The owner Richard and Bren working the front, and the rest of team at the facility has been nothing but professional and kind. I have a 4 year old rescue Amstaff Terrier that has been handful (as many rescues are with manners early on) but an amazing kind loving dog. He's come so far this past year (living on the streets and abused). I signed Falkor up for training for that extra nudge he needs to get him past some of those rescue hurdles. We are still early in training but the communication from everyone has been great, and they came highly recommended (I can see why). Falkor absolutely loves going here and I can tell he gets his exercise in. The staff tells me how much he loves coming here everytime I drop him off, and I can tell he gets a ton of the proper stimulation that he needs for his breed. If you're looking for doggy day care, or training I highly recommend Grateful Pets as a dog parent. I'll update how the training goes, but I'm positive Falkor is in great hands with the team at Grateful Pets on his training journey!
I bring my dog here for nail trims about once a month. Bren gives the fastest, least stressful, and best nail trims my dog has ever gotten. $20 for my dog to have his nails done perfectly in literally less than 5min every time (I've time it before lol) is a STEAL, especially considering he comes back happy and wiggly and unbothered.
I’m dog sitting for my daughter’s St. Bernard and she gets very excited and is trying to push open the door to get in when I drop her off. So 5 stars from the dogs point of view!
They do an excellent job training dogs and dog sitting. I am very glad we found them.
