Trustworthy, dependable, and semi-retired traveling couple who loves pets!
Joi and Glen were the best house sitters imaginable. They took excellent care of my pets and home, were communicative during the stay and even offered to stay longer if needed. They left the home in spotless condition as well. I feel very grateful to them and hope they can come again.

Loving, experienced home and critter sitter: the Kat!
Kat responded to a last minute request we had for 1 night. She was very friendly & her communication was great. It was obvious how much she loved our kitty Dexter & Goldendoodle Goldie. Dexter is usually shy with new people & takes a while to warm up. He was in Kat’s lap getting pets in no time. Goldie also lived her right away. We received several updates & pictures & our home was in great shape on our return. We would have Kat back any time. Thank you, Kat for your loving care!

Active, Athletic, Caring Dog Lover !
Catherine was such an amazing sitter for our house of pets! Once of which is a puppy and needs extra care and attention. She was very communicative every day, sending us photos and updates on how everyone was doing. She also took our puppy out on walks daily and kept her busy at the dog park. We came home to a very tidy house as well! We could not recommend Catherine more, and hope to have her sit for us again in the future.

WFH researcher excited to provide quality care to your furry loved ones!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Capable, Reliable, Affectionate
I was so lucky to get to meet Rachel before I went on my two month trip. I will for sure. Try to work with her again if things if it’s possible, what do you want a pet sitter you want someone who loves your cat and you want someone who is reliable ultra reliable so that never on your trip. You have to worry about what’s happening back home. This is what we got with Rachel, she’s disciplined and mature and low-key and we corresponded throughout the two months and she did some small things above and beyond her assignment and I literally never had to worry about my house and I never had to worry about my cat. I would hire her again in a second in fact, you would be smart to do so , honestly there’s no downsides. I would say so believe me and I think that this service is so great and I’m so lucky to get her and I think she has something like 55 star reviews now she has 51 so definitely hire her. She’s amazing.

Experienced House and Pet Sitter and Animal Lover Ready to Serve!
Kelley provides excellent pet care. She has been very patient with my cat who can't decide whether she wants to be in or out and my other cat who hides the whole time. Kelley responded to communication quickly and left my house tidy and clean. Kelley will be my go-to should she be available.

Long time life partners ~ Traveling animal loving foodies
Olivia and Tylar were absolutely amazing during the entire sit (which was nearly 2.5 weeks). I received regular updates and wonderful photos from Olivia. They took extra care of my senior dog who requires some extra attention and clean-up and never seemed put-out at all. by this extra work. I cannot recommend their help enough!

Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
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.
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
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!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
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, $28/day 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!
I randomly stumbled across Pets in Paradise when my high energy pit bull mix was not enjoying her other daycare as much. Pets in Paradise has been incredible! My dog is very selective in who she likes, and she absolutely adores the staff here. She gets to run around outside all day and the staff sends pictures and updates throughout the day to provide peace knowing she is enjoying herself.
I love this place!! My dogs always come back happy, fresh from a bath, and tired from having so much fun. Thank you to the incredible staff for taking such good care of my pups Bowie and Rocky!
My dog Sadie doesn't like many people and won't even go for a walk with good friends of mine who she knows well. However, she absolutely loves the staff at Pets in Paradise. In the morning, she waits at the door for their arrival and practically jumps into their arms when they come to pick her up. When she comes home in the afternoon, she is tired and happy. I have been unable to walk her, so Pets in Paradise has become a life saver for me and also for Sadie.
My dog loves this place. She comes back happy and tired. The taxi service is awesome. She jumps right in the van without saying good bye. All of the staff I have met have been so friendly. I highly recommend the doggy day care or boarding to anyone!
Our waiter Alex was AWESOME! Food and drink were great and view of the race track was fun!
Great rustic environment for pets to enjoy...staff is professional and knowledgeable and truly care for your pets of all sizes
Very caring employees and always polite and smiling because they love their job.
This place is great. They really go the extra mile!

Janean took excellent care of my small senior chihuahua while I was on vacation in Mexico. She sent photos each day with updates which gave me peace of mind on vacation. I highly recommend. Thank you, Janean, Machel 🙏
We have used Hounds to Horses for years to care for our pets. They are professional, friendly, reliable, and our pets are still happy and healthy when we get home. I cannot recommend them enough.
Janean is awesome! First time boarding both our dogs together. They were so happy and well cared for here. No chance we would go anywhere else. Plenty of love and attention... plenty of room to play... total peace of mind. Loved getting picture updates on how our dogs were doing while we were gone. Highest recommendation!
Janean is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and seems to be able to make them feel very comfortable. My 2 Chihuahuas have stayed with her 2 times over the last couple of months. 1 is very skittish and the other has tremendous separation anxiety. Both so very well there and I am so grateful!
We have used both the daycare and in-home visits at Hounds to Horses. Lucy and Jasper always get the best of care. Lucy thinks Bill is her "other Dad" and sometimes seems to prefer staying with him than coming home! That tells me that she's getting the love and attention she needs while we are away. We've been using H to H for over 8 years and I would recommend it to anyone who wants kindhearted people to take care of their fur babies. Thanks Janean and Bill!
I've experienced the great environment and personal care that they give all of their animals. The only concern you should have about boarding your animals at Hounds To Horses is that your pet may never want to go back home with you! I highly recommend Hounds To Horses!
Sonny & Sophie (Boxers} spent Labor Day Week end At Hounds to Horses (2020) Great in House Venue as well as access to out doors activitys. could tell when pick up Sonny and Sophie were well taken care of. "When Do We Go Back" thanks Janean
My dog loves it here. And it's very safe. Owner of thoughtful and sweet, I even got update photos of my girl during her boarding stay which was amazing bc I missed my doggo so much
Wonderful experience and a homely, fun place. Our King Charles was happy and obviously well looked after. Will definitely be going back.
Contacted twice over the past 2 or 3 years. No follow up or follow through.
This was the first time our puppy, Warlock, had ever been to boarding. He stayed from a Friday night until Sunday night while we enjoyed our weekend in San Diego. He is quite shy at first around people. The staff was very caring and attentive to him. Great communication by staff prior to and during Warlock's stay. Loved the report card and photos that were shared with us.
Chex had a great first day! We love the report card and how they separate dogs based not just on size but energy level too. Facility was clean and staff were great! Looking forward to bringing him again soon.
We wanted to get our 5 months old puppy ready to be board in the event that we need to leave her if we go on any short trip. When I went to their website I was very impressed. I filled out all the documentation that they needed and decided to go down there just to see what it looked like and felt like. Everyone was nice and made me feel comfortable about the whole situation. The free orientation day went very well. Since my husband works all kinds of hours if I am out of town it is nice to know that they are available 24/7. It is nice to have the flexibility of knowing that are beautiful baby will be taken care of very well when we need them. The place seemed very clean and everyone is very nice. That was our experience at the Escondido location. The prices seem to be very good so we would highly recommend this business for your dogs needs.
I cannot say enough great things about 24-hour dog daycare! My dog, Wednesday, absolutely *loves* it here. The moment we pull into the parking lot, she starts wagging her tail with excitement, ready to spend her day with the wonderful staff and other dogs. The team is so attentive, and I know Wednesday is always in great hands. What really stands out is the level of care and attention they give to each dog. Whether it's playtime, nap time, or just some one-on-one love, they truly treat every dog as if they were their own. I love that it's 24 hours, giving me peace of mind that Wednesday is cared for, even during late-night shifts or unexpected work hours. It's her absolute favorite place, and I couldn’t be happier with the service! Highly recommend to any dog parent looking for a trustworthy, caring, and fun environment for their pup. Five stars!
I rarely write reviews on here, but I wanted to give credit where it was due and compliment the excellent service we’ve received at 24HDD time and time again. For the past two months, our senior German Shepherd Remy has attended daycare here several times and boarded here for a weekend. He always has a great time hanging out with the staff and his doggy friends. The online portal is great and so easy to use. The staff is incredibly attentive and quick to respond whenever we have questions or need to book a last-minute appointment. Just tonight, they updated Remy’s vaccine records and emailed me to let me know almost immediately after I uploaded the file. Something as simple as a quick response makes all the difference. Thank you, 24HDD!
I have been very impressed with this Doggie Daycare. We have a VERY timid and fearful rescue and she’s doing very well there. And I LOVE that I can drop-off/pick-up our baby-dogs whenever we need to. That is such a relief. Highly recommended/
This place is awesome. We were in Escondido from out of town and our senior goldendoodle who suffers from severe arthritis stayed in a private boarding suite while we attended a wedding. They were so kind to her and took her out poty a couple times and also let her play a bit in the play room. They handled her gently and kindly. We hated to leave her at her age, but upon seeing the facility and talking with them, they put our minds at ease. When we picked her up, they provided us a "report card". It was very nice of them that they took that extra step. We highly recommend this facility.
My Sally pup had the BEST time here at 24 hour dog daycare. The staff was so sweet and caring and took their time to make sure she was acclimated before introducing her to the other pups. She made so many friends and had the time of her life playing. All the pictures they sent with her report card put a huge smile on my face while I was at work. We will definitely be coming back !
Parker had his first daycare experience here and he loved it. The updates were great and the staff kind. Can’t wait for him to go back!
My Hans just spent his first 24 hours at this facility and we're so impressed. Everything was easy and smooth. Our pup isn't a social dog with other dogs and they had so many safeguards in place. It was a completely stress free drop off and pick up experience. I love that he came home tired, but totally happy and without that stressed out dog smell! Highly recommend and will definitely use them again.
Stephanie took great care of my kitties at a very stressful time after the death of my husband. She came during the Christmas holidays as well shortly before a move when the house was packed up ready for the movers. She was given very short notice for that time frame. Despite the stress, my cats were happy I was home but no more so than if I had just gone grocery shopping! Stephanie makes sure she knows where everything the pets need as well as bringing in newspapers etc. I highly recommend her as do my two boys! Mary Koske
North County Pet Sitting provides a terrific service. Rumi is super caring and took care of our 2 cats for 2 weeks. She communicates with you everyday and send tons of pics after each visit. I highly recommend extremely trustworthy pet sitting service.
My wife and I have 2 cats, and no family here in SD. Whenever we go out of town for any extended period of time, we always give Rumi with North County Pet Sitting a call. Rumi has always been available and more than willing to care for our pets while we are gone. Each time she visits, she always sends a picture or video and lets us know how our cats are doing. We have used their services for over 3 years now, and have always been pleased with their services and care. Strongly recommend!
We have had nothing but a wonderful experience with North County Pet Sitting. It's so reassuring to know your pet is well cared for while you are away for the day. We also have them take care of our bulldog when we go on trips for a week or more. We know our dog gets loved and cared for as if she's their own. They even pick our dog up and drop her off when we get back - what service! We also love that they can be flexible when needed. I ❤️this service and highly recommend!!!
Rumi has been taking great care of my cats for over a year now. She is super reliable and even makes sure she can be available at short notice when unexpected plans come up. Both of my cats need pills and/or supplements and Rumi is awesome and diligent about ensuring they have what is required every day. Very honest and reliable - highly recommend!!
If you need someone to care of your pets I highly recommend North County Pet Sitting! We used their service two weeks ago and very pleased with them. My dogs looked happy and I felt at ease while we were on vacation.
My dog, Lily, is very shy and she suffers from separation anxiety. Rumi always puts Lily at ease with her calm and friendly demeanor. It’s clear Lily genuinely enjoys spending time with Rumi! I highly recommend Rumi for all dog sitting services, you won’t be disappointed.
Boarded our two Chags. They came back happy and clean. Pick up and drop off service. Price was much lower than other services, especially if you are looking to board more than one pet.
I’ve been using North County Pet Sitting for few years for my dogs. Very trustworthy and reliable. Highly recommend their services!
Wonderful service - she helped me out with last minute dog sitting. Responsive and responsible.
Excellent job. Pets didn't even miss us!
Mary took great care of our dog! We left our dog with her for around a month while we were on vacation and she did an amazing job taking care of him. Always got daily updates, pictures, and videos of our dog. Would recommend!
The Barking BNB is fantastic! I hate leaving my pups, so keeping them with someone that is communicative and caring is at the top of my list. The love they get from here is excellent! One of my pups has special eye drops that needs to be given 3x a day, and she comfortably gives them to him without issue. I have gone to them twice now, and it's safe to say, I will look to the Barking BNB first when I need to head out of town.
Excellent service. Our dog loves staying here. Mary takes good care of our Dog Bella when we are away and sends pictures everyday. Mary is accommodating on last minute requests as well. I would highly recommend this service.
Our dog, Loki, is a nervous little guy but he always does great with Mary. She is the first person we call when he needs care. She is great with communication, sends daily updates and pictures, and keeps up with his daily routine. Loki always comes back to us happy, healthy and relaxed. We highly recommend Mary!
Mary is incredibly responsible, kind, and communicative. For the past two years, we have been leaving Toby with The Barking BnB and couldn't be happier knowing someone spoil him as much as we do. Highly recommend.
Mary is awesome! She took such good care of our fur baby. She sent daily updates with photos during our trip. Would definitely recommend her for your pets as well. Thank you Mary.
I am a repeat customer, and only Mary knows how to handle my dog. She's amazing and always accommodates my dog, even in last-minute situations. Thank you so much. I am always happy and have peace of mind when my dog is with her.
Mary's care and service at The Barking BnB are tremendous! She has treated our dog wonderfully, and is always timely and responsive. We cannot recommend her enough! Hands down the best dog sitter we have ever used!!
Mary will always be our first choice . I am so happy we found her for Ari . She not only cared for our dog in the best possible way when we were away but also handled unexpected situations and provides the best suggestions and action plan for any situation. Highly recommend her for your pet care needs . Thanks Mary - Asha , Arasan , Aradhana and Ari ❤️
We’ve been using Dogs on the Run in 2020 and now again for over a year after moving back to the area, and we couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our pets receive. Melissa is fantastic with Dino, our dog, taking him on daily walks and capturing great pictures along the way. She always goes the extra mile to make sure he’s happy and well-exercised. Bella has been equally amazing, especially with overnight stays. Her special care for Dino and our cat, Rick, gives us peace of mind knowing our pets are in great hands when we’re away. We highly recommend DOTR for their exceptional service and genuine love for animals. Thank you, Melissa and Bella, for your dedication and care!
Dogs On The Run has been a life saving service for us, helping to always make sure our pup has his daily walk. We appreciate the concierge service, the fantastic dog walkers (shout out to Tracey!), and the sub walkers (yay, Alexis!). It is my daily joy to receive a picture of dog Levi on his walk with Tracey. Thank you for being so trusting and dependable, Dogs On The Run!
Lora from Dogs on the Run was absolutely fabulous! We went on a family ski trip for a little over a week and Lora watched over our pup. We have a 2 year old lab and love her so much. Lora treated her like family and took such good care of her. Every day she sent me photos and updates which was a nice bonus. I've attached a few of the photos she sent over while we were gone-it made me so happy to get these updates;) We will definitely be using her services again when we travel or anytime we need someone to watch over our pup. Highly recommend her and Dogs on the Run!
Dogs on the Run is a reliable pet service with exceptional walkers like Sophia, Hannah, and Heather, who captures amazing photos on their long adventure walks. Genie was always there for us in emergency situations, and we truly miss her. Owner April consistently ensures a great experience, providing follow-up after appointments and any changes in service. Highly recommend Dogs on the Run for all your pet care needs!
Toby is more than just a dog sitter; he's an exceptional caregiver who goes above and beyond to ensure Sasha's well-being. His attentiveness to her needs, coupled with his ability to engage her and adapt to her energy levels, truly sets him apart. What's remarkable is his deep knowledge of canine behavior, allowing him to tailor his care to Sasha's specific needs throughout the day. Witnessing Sasha's excitement as we approach Toby's house reassures me that she's in the best hands possible. Toby's regular updates, complete with videos and pictures, keep me at ease while I'm away, and I appreciate his dedication to ensuring Sasha's happiness and safety. He takes her on adventures all over town, which lights me up every time I see it. Recently, we tried boarding for the first time with Toby, and he exceeded all expectations. Sasha returned happy, mentally and physically stimulated, and well-rested. I wholeheartedly recommend Toby for his exceptional dog sitting and boarding services!
This is my first time using a pet sitter as my pup always travels with me, but when I could not take her on a recent trip, I turned to Dog on the Run. They were fantastic, very responsive, they paired me with the wonderful Jeanice who was an absolute angel!! She kept in contact, sent me pictures of my fur baby and they got along great!! She made my trip a carefree experience as I knew my Keely was in great hands! I highly recommend DOTR and Jeanice!!
DOTR is an OUTSTANDING DOG-SITTING RESOURCE, & they have sitters throughout a broad section of the country. We used them while traveling for a family event in Berkeley, CA. The sitter, JANA was a sweetheart, was punctual, & professional, & even advised us when she reached our hotel. As I requested, she kept us updated on our puppy's status throughout the time she took care of her throughout the 2 days we were there, walking her, playing with her favorite fetch balls, etc, She sent us numerous adorable photos for my phone, & thorough updates, further making me feel confident that our puppy was in excellent hands. I couldn't have been more pleased, & STRONGLY RECOMMEND "DOTR" for reliable, professional dog-sitting services.
Dogs on the Run came very highly recommended and they have been a life saver when I needed a pet sitter for my 20 lb pug mix dog. Right from the start, their professionalism was evident. They were fast to respond and asked me a series of pertinent questions regarding my dog's requirements and temperament, so that they can find a pet sitter who was the best match. Based on our discussion, they connected me to Shae. Shae is the best pet sitter I have worked with. Shae was always punctual. My dog, Chewy, instantly bonded with her. Shae followed all my instructions perfectly. Chewy can be leash reactive and hence walking him can be challenging, But Shae was very patient and careful with him. At the end of each session, she would send a detailed report along with pictures, which I very much appreciated. She was a pleasure to work with and I will be requesting her services on a regular basis. After every pet sitting gig, 'Dogs on the run' always followed up with me to get my feedback and ensure my satisfaction. I highly recommend DOTR and Shae for your pet sitting needs.
This was our first experience using Dogs on the Run to care for our two dogs while away on a 4 night trip. Hanna and Jordan were amazing!! They took great care of our fur babies and our home. Would recommend Dogs on the Run and Hanna + Jordan to anyone. :)
I can’t possibly express how much I love my pup’s sitter, Jan. She knew exactly how to make me feel comfortable with my dog staying in a new environment. She provides timely updates and is all around a wonderful human. My dog gets plenty of playtime and has made new doggy friends. I can’t recommend Dogs On The Run highly enough.it is amazing!
Puppy Love Pet Care is the best pet sitting/dog boarding option in San Diego. I called Puppy Love Pet Care last minute for a week of dog sitting. Not only did they cater to Rio, but also they allowed me to extend his visit for another week in even shorter notice. The team is absolutely wonderful. I will definitely be using them again. Also - they don't crate dogs and allow non-neutered dogs - amazing!
Such a wonderful experience. We left our two dogs with Randi for two weeks, and she was absolutely amazing! Both of them came home relaxed with wagging tails. It’s nice to find someone you can trust.
Puppy Love is my go to dog sitter whenever I travel to visit San Diego in the spring/summer! I travel with my dog and leave him with Puppy Love for overnight boarding and doggy daycare anytime I need someone to watch them while I'm busy with work. I've also used them for walks for my dog and am never disappointed with their flexibility and how happy my dog is whenever they come home. I would definitely recommend supporting this local business!
Puppy Love Pet Care is the absolute best! My dog considers them a second family. As a boy with bad separation anxiety, finding a sitter that he was really comfortable with took some searching, but he always has a great time here and comes home happy and tuckered out. I'll never leave him with anyone else!
Puppy love was great! I recommend to everyone looking for a boarding for your pet. They took my cat in last minute where other places wouldn’t. I went out of town for 5 days and did not have to worry the whole trip! Highly recommend.
When we leave on vacation, puppy love is the only place we trust to take care of our two Aussiedoodles. We come back to healthy and happy dogs.
I love this place. I enrolled my shy guy into the day training program. He is half way through his first sessions and I am seeing amazing progress. The staff and trainers are super responsive. And I love how clean/secure the facilities are. I feel my little dude is in great hands. I appreciate how strict staff is with vaccines too!! Keeping our fur babies safe and healthy. This place is a GEM. Orbit comes home tired & happy!!!
Excellent care ! We have been bringing our dogs for daycare, and they love coming! We have also used the boarding and feel comfortable they are in good hands. We love getting pictures while we are away . Tara and Adam do an amazing job caring for our fur babies . Kristen has groomed our goldendoodle and does a wonderful job too. The Team at Alcala is great 👍
My husband and I adopted our sweet boy Beaux in June of 2024. We quickly discovered he would get really overstimulated, really quickly. And while we were researching and training at home as much as we could, we were finding ourselves facing issue after issue or setback after setback. He was reactive to all dogs, and even though his reactivity was that of excitement, we knew that he didn’t have the tools necessary to come face to face with other untrained dogs like him (dogs that were submissive or had good training previously were okay for him to handle). We knew we needed help and were recommended Alcala by another pet parent at the dog park. We set up our orientation as soon as we could and we immediately fell in love with the place. The manager, Courtney, did our orientation and was SO knowledgeable about every single topic we had questions about. I was incredibly nervous to leave him there - as I was DREADING the (what felt like inevitable) phone call telling me Beaux was too much for them to handle. But, the call never came. In fact, when we picked him up the first day, and saw how happy he was, we knew immediately that we made the right decision choosing Alcala. He did one five-week class at two days a week and the improvements we saw from him were undeniable!! He walked on leashes better, his reactivity was better, his at home manners were better, and while we knew he had a long way to go, I felt so much more confident and SAFE taking him outside on my own. At the time, he was about 90lbs, today he’s a 101, and the fear I had about not being able to handle him is largely gone and I credit it 100% to Alcala. Our trainer, Cydney, was with us every step of the way. We would ask question after question, provide story after story for context, and she would always have exercises that would potentially (and usually did) help immensely. For the rare occasion that something we learned and tried wasn’t helping as well as we would’ve hoped, she would quickly pivot, demonstrate, and give us new exercises to try. We saw so much improvement in his first five-week package that we signed up for another - simply hoping for more of the same, because his progress was unbelievable. We were pleasantly surprised to see more progress yet again. Not only did we maintain the level of training he had learned but he expanded on it even more! Beaux is calmer, SO much less reactive, and is so much more well behaved at home (which is shocking because he never really gave us a hard time in the first place). He finished out his package this week, and while we’re going to take the rest of the year to be home and spend the holidays with family, my husband and I are already making plans as to when we can bring him back. The joy Alcala has brought Beaux is palpable. The ease of mind and confidence it has brought me is undeniable. My husband feels more confident handling training situations in public, a task I am still trying to master. I could not recommend Alcala enough. Courtney, Cydney, and the rest of the amazing staff have been nothing but a pleasure to work with. We cannot wait to be back!
Best daycare and boarding in town! They keep you updated on your dog and even gave our pup some pumpkin due to a stomach issue. They treat our dog as their own pet and we love them! Our dog June is always happy to go for the day or stay overnight at Alcala!
Tara, Adam, and the Alcala Pet Resort Team run a very professional boarding operation. We know our dogs are always safe and in excellent care at Alcala. Over the past 20 years, we have never experienced a better-run quality pet boarding facility- highly recommended - 5-Star
Alcala is a caring and welcoming place for doggie daycare and boarding. I can leave town knowing my pup will be well cared for and safe. They are super sweet with her and I appreciate them!
We trust Alcala and our dog loves it! Our 2 year old lab goes to Alcala for day care, and we board her there when we are out of town. She just stayed for 2 weeks, and previously had been boarded multiple times for up to a week. When we picked her up after 15 days, she was happy and it was like no time had passed! As a dog parent it is hard to find a place that you trust, and we have tried dog sitters in our home but have found that boarding is the best option for us. It's important to enjoy while we are away without worrying, and know our dog is safe and cared for by professionals. That is Alcala for us and we appreciate all the staff!
My very, very, difficult dog started muzzled and dosed with tranquilizers when Kristen did her first groom. Now Emmy, my sweet Maltese, with a snappy streak, just allows Kristen to go on ahead. WE love Kristen, she is a dog whisperer!
Overall I really like Alcala. My dog seems super happy to go there and I love there is so much group play time. I gave you a 4 instead of 5 for 2 reasons: 1) I find the rates very very high, and it's painful to pay for two days of boarding when we technically stay over a single night. There is zero way to pay for one day of boarding, and I find that to be, well, just wrong for the customer. Say I dropped my dog at 4pm on a Tuesday and got him at 9am the next day. I am charged $130. I'd love if you could rethink this policy and charge by 24-hour periods (like, say, a car rental company). 2) I almost never get feedback on how my dog did. I've never had a report card or a photo. I'd love to hear more about his visits.
Full disclaimer: we're empty nesters, so our fur babies have become our children. Therefore, to say that we adore them beyond words and do whatever is in their best interest would be an understatement. I say this because I want you, the reader, to know that we do our due diligence and research when it comes to those we trust with them. No cutting corners, second best, or anything else in between. None of that. So when I say that Alcala was and is a lifesaver, I sincerely mean it. Our maltipoo, Pumpkin, is 12 years old, so a puppy hasn't been in our household for 11 years. Thus, we were a taaad rusty. We adopted Zoom (labradoodle) when he was three months old (almost six months now) and boy o' boy! Did I mention that a puppy hasn't been in our house in over a decade?! Whew! I knew that no matter how much "training" I did on my own, I needed help. And fast. And from professionals. Alcala was recommended to me, and yep, you guessed it, I did my due diligence! But from the initial phone call to the orientation/assessment and through today, I'm glad I chose them and can't thank them enough for what they do. We signed him up for one of the training/daycare packages, and it has been worth every single penny. Every. Single. One. He gets out all the extra energy and sleeps in his "in-between" days, which I didn't think was possible, but he does. Daycare also allows Pumpkin, our other furry baby, to have a much needed break, and I can work peacefully knowing they're both not home all day, every day. So win, win, win. He absolutely LOVES going to Alcala, and although depending on his mood, he may/may not feel like getting into the car, once we arrive and I park, he can't wait to get out! And because he doesn't realize that he's no longer small in size (see photo below), he jumps on me to hurry up because apparently I don't go at the pace he would like. 😉 However, it is a sweet gesture that brings a smile to my face and tells me that he feels loved, protected, and comfortable there, which is the most I can ask for. Once training sessions are completed, he will be a part of regular daycare. I can't thank Courtney, Cydney, Adam, and everyone else enough! Thank you for loving Zoomy and being a special part of his life. Thank you for doing God's work by helping shape these little creatures who are so incredibly precious. Thank you! -Zoom & Pumpkin's Mom & Dad 📷 courtesy of: Alcala
I want to express my delight and gratitude to Ashley for taking care of our kitty while we were away. She made sure to make him feel loved, ensured he had a clean space, and played with him plenty. My cat truly felt comfortable with her and that gave me peace of mind. I can tell Ashley loves caring for clients’ pets which is why I highly recommend her. She even captures the best moments! Kyro is one satisfied feline!!
I had such a wonderful experience working with Ashley!! This was my first time using a professional sitter, she came highly recommended by my best friend. She went above and beyond to make sure my baby was taken well care of even when the key I gave her didn't work, she calmed me down and waited until I figured out a solution for her to get inside. I really appreciated the constant communication and all the photos and updates while away. She has a special way of making you and your pet feel at ease. 10000 out of 10 stars :)
Ashley is the most amazing loving kind compassionate well organized animal lover I have ever met ! I will only trust my pups to Ashley. She always cares 100% for my pups and keeps everything super clean also! She goes above and beyond and we are so blessed to have her as our pup caretaker! I recommend her without hesitate wholeheartedly
I cannot recommend Ashley enough if you are in need of a pet sitter! We were on vacation for a week and she stayed at our home every night and checked on our doggies multiple times a day. She took them for walks, playtime and snuggles every night. We came home to a spotless clean house, bedsheets and towels already in the wash, and two very happy doggies. Ashley sent us multiple photos and videos and texts to let us know how the dogs were doing. I loved receiving their pictures & knowing they were happy. Highly recommend you reach out to Ashley before your next trip or weekend getaway!
Ashley is a wonderful pet sitter! I trust her completely with my cat, Sasha. She’s very friendly and communicative and always sends pictures. When I’m away for a week (or more) I can tell from pictures how my cat is doing and when I get home to her I get a sense of how much attention she had when I was gone. With some other pet sitters I’ve had my cat seemed so much more lonely and needy when I came back, but not with Ashley! I’d definitely recommend Ashley and will continue to use her services!
We were so fortunate to have Ashley care for our pets and house while away several days this month. Our older lab loved her and seemed so comfortable with her right away. While he stayed at her home to curb separation anxiety, she spent plenty of time with our cats at our home. Prior to the trip, she visited us and was prepared with lots of questions getting to know our pets and house. During the trip, Ashley was in close communication with photos and updates. We were so grateful to have her excellent care and love, it made our time away truly relaxing.
This was my first time using a service like this and I was really nervous and feeling unsure of the whole situation as I’ve never boarded my dog, but on that same note never been able to take a family trip because somebody always had to stay behind.. usually me, with the dog. I found Ashley online and saw all the great reviews, so I reached out to her. After having a couple of conversations via phone, she then came to the house for the meet & greet and immediately knew I made the right choice. She was such a delight, so sweet, kind and she immediately bonded with our dog Sadie. Ashley came and watched our dog for a week during the holidays. Not only did I know my dog was in good hands, but I could see that she was based on all the updates and photos that she sent back. As much as I would love to gatekeep Ashley and not share her or how wonderful she is, I know I can’t do that..lol I hope that her business expands and she’s successful as she deserves to be, because she’s amazing person to hire for watching and taking care of your fur babies.
Ashley is amazing. Takes absolute best care. Like leaving your pet with family! Ashley gives constant communication with videos and pictures. Easy to work with. Provides stress free pet care for you and your animal. Thank you Ashley.
Ashley is AMAZING. I have put off traveling for years in fear of leaving my critter in the wrong hands but will never deal with that problem again. Ashley truly is SO hands on with every aspect of pet care; she sent me so so many photos and videos of my kitty which gave me such peace while I was away. Shes communicative, kind and has a pure heart. I am so grateful to have found her to love and care for my cat when Im away! I highly recommend her services!
I can't say enough about how incredible Ashley is with our Rottie. From the moment she came over to our home for our consult we knew we picked the right person for the job! Just like for any pet owner, its hard when we leave our fur babies behind, its hard to find someone you can trust with him, they really are part of our family, but Ashley took the time to answer all questions we had, provide her expertise and made us feel so confident that she was in good hands. She does everything she can to build trust with you and your pet, you can feel how much she truly cares and loves them like they were her own! She sent us multiple updates, pictures and videos every day showing us how happy our Rottie was. We plan on using Ashley again for all our future pet sitting needs. Highly recommend her 100%
My dog is always happy to go to Sue's house. He has so much fun with his friends and is always excited to play with them. Sue is very flexible and made my life easier with my constantly changing schedule. Prices are very reasonable and she will treat your dog like her own. She made putting my dog in daycare stress free and easy. Highly recommended.
Sue specializes in smaller breeds at her doggy day care. Her home and large yard are kept clean and secure. The dogs are very happy to go there, and play with their friends.
Sue comes to take care of all my babies and I wouldn't trust anyone else to do this important job. She also has daycare and boarding in her home and when I need that extra care my babies seem very relaxed just as if they were at home.
They don’t accept all kinds of dogs. They are not all aggressive and they rejected a sweetheart today just because she’s a pitty. This broke my heart to know there are people like them who would judge her for what she is.
Toby gets excited every time we get here so he gets to visit his friends!
Very sweet lady and sweeter dog pack!
