Kari Fjugstad
Encino, California
Loyal, trustworthy, independent gal. Loves animals. Local to OC, able to travel.
Kari was absolutely fantastic! Her communication was top-notch throughout, always keeping me updated and reassured. When I returned, my house was spotless, a testament to her attention to detail. It's clear she loves pets, and my pets adored her in return. She went above and beyond in every way, making sure they were not only well cared for but also happy. I will definitely have her back in the future. Highly recommend!"
Virginia
Encino, California
Full time nomads looking to help others and make (furry) friends along the way!
Our second time using Virginia and Jared and they were amazing, as usual. They generously sent us multiple videos and pictures daily and left our house spotless. Most importantly Baloo was so well taken care of, we couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks again, guys!
Sandra
Encino, California
Animal-loving, adventurous empty-nesters with 30+ TrustedHouseSitter sits
Sandra and Cooper were amazing! Unfortunately, Crispy had some health issues present between our booking and our trip. This made him a lot more special needs than we had anticipated and I know he was a bit more trouble than was expected. They reassured us and kept us informed the entire time. We certainly did not plan on it being this type of stay for them but they adapted quite well and kept us informed. This was our first zeewoi experience and we are so fortunate to have been paired with them. Thank you again!
Yamrot
Encino, California
Experienced 5⭐️ house & pet sitter who loves to travel. Quiet, clean, vaccinated
Yammy was a wonderful sitter, and we were lucky to have her here. She and our cat Puccini clicked right away, and based on her frequent updates with photos to us I think Puccini sat on or near her every minute she was here😄! She was here for five+ weeks, and anything that came up needing attention she took it in stride and and kept us informed so we never had to worry about a thing. And when we returned the house was immaculate — if it hadn’t been for the pictures she sent we would hardly know she’d lived in the house for five weeks! We’d love to host her again, any time, and if she applies to sit for you you should absolutely grab her before someone else does.
Danesha
Encino, California
Clean, respectful, loving mom & daughter DUO!
Danni was a fantastic sitter, probably the best sitter we’ve ever had. She was excellent with communication prior to and during the sit. She was very friendly and our cat (who isn’t very social) even came out of hiding while she was here. We were out of the country and had no pet worries thanks to Danni’s care. We would wholly recommend her 10/10.
Coco
Encino, California
Compassionate, responsible, & loving mother and son duo.
Coco and Liam were our first sit and it was a long 3 week trip. We came back to a happy home and a happy hound. Coco was in contact with off and on during our trip with updates, which was reassuring. I hope to use her again, they were fantastic!
Valerie
Encino, California
Responsible and Perceptive Animal Lover
I had a last minute trip come up, and was relieved Valerie was able to take care of my kitties in a pinch. I liked her immediately upon meeting her, and felt her great energy would be a perfect match for my shy kitties. As far as I could tell, Valerie took good care of the kitties while I was away. The communication was just okay. She eventually replied to my messages about this and that, but didn't really initiate or share little updates or photos of the kitties and how it was going unless I reached out first. When I came home, I discovered that an item of mine was missing and asked her if she had seen it anywhere, thinking I must have misplaced it before I left. She acknowledged she had taken it, but didn't actually apologize, incredibly, and then it was a real struggle to try to get it back or at least have her send a replacement. After much persistence and pursuit on my part and quite the runaround on her part, she eventually replaced it, but I was a bit taken aback by her blasé attitude about taking it in the first place and then casual avoidance to resolving the situation. All very surprising, and an unfortunate disheartening footnote to the petsit. All that being said, she left my house very clean and tidy, and the kitties seemed very calm and content when I returned.
Karen
Encino, California
Animal Lover Since Age 7. Your pets are my new best friends. Truly.
Karen took excellent care of Zorro...He could not be happier! Since it was a long term sit and since it was during the summer, Zorro had a bad case of the fleas. His flea collar and frontline treatment was not working. After communicating with us, Karen took the initiative to take Zorro to the vet for treatment. When we got home Zorro was happy and flea free.
Melanie
Encino, California
I am part hermit part gypsy soul who loves to explore
Melanie was honestly amazing! She’s so kind and reliable, she gave me regular updates about maple, was very self-sufficient and not only did she keep my place super tidy, she washed my bedsheets before I arrived back from my vacation! I would definitely have her pet sit again
Natasha
Encino, California
Midwestern Gal in LA LA Land
Natasha is an excellent dog sitter. We met her before going on our trip, and she took note of everything! She was super independent while staying at our house and sent us lots of daily pictures of our dog. It was clear they got along very well, and she was very dedicated to his walks and care. She also watered the plants. When we came home, the house was very clean. Thank you, Natasha, you're a professional! We hope you'll take care of Tego again in the future.
Reviews from Cat Owners
Mike
Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Alexey
I highly recommend Daniel as a pet sitter and house sitter! He took care of Pipa for over three months this winter and did an outstanding job. From the first day, it was clear that he had a genuine love for animals and a great deal of experience with pets. He was very attentive to his needs and always made sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and had plenty of playtime. In addition to his pet-sitting duties, Daniel also went above and beyond by processing my postal mail and keeping the house well-organized. He was very responsible and reliable, always arriving on communicating, putting the bins out, and watering the plants on time, and keeping me updated with photos and messages. I felt completely at ease knowing that my cat was in such good hands and that my home was well-cared for while I was away. When I returned from my trip, Pipa was happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, thanks to Daniel's excellent care. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet and house sitter!
Sunny
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
Claire
This was the second time Cung sat for us and once again he was amazing! Cung was great with our cat, giving him lots of love and attention. Our cat was so comfortable he snuggled up with Cung frequently, which he doesn’t always do with strangers. We got daily updates and pictures. When we returned we could tell our cat was well taken care of. Cung was so organized and clean, as well. Our apartment was spotless when we returned. That’s always nice after coming home from vacation. You should definitely have Cung sit for you! One of the top sitters on this site.
Lorie
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
Will
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.
Jim
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
Julie
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.
Paola
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.

Our puppy absolutely loves D Pet and so do we. The staff takes such good care of our baby and keeps us posted during the day of his progress. It's good to know we have D Pet available for our dog to stay overnight or just for the day while we are at work. We know he will be safe and have a blast playing with his buddies all day. Thank you D Pet!
My furry friends are six and three years old. I have never utilized a doggy day care or boarding facility until a week ago. My babies absolutely love this place and come home exhausted. One of them is a husky and I’ve never seen her so relaxed at home. This place is absolutely amazing and their staff is awesome. Thank you for taking care of my babies. 💕
D Pet Hotel Encino treats our Doberman like family. Rocky loves going there & he adores Franco. We are so grateful for Franco and his team. Josh, the owner, is very personable and allows Franco to lead with excellence. We use D Pet Hotel Encino exclusively for play days and overnights. We trust the team completely and they truly love what they do.
From the very beginning they’ve been my go to dog hotel. They keep it clean and organized, my dog was shy at first but he warmed up. I trust them to take care of my dog when I can’t take him with me. They even have a FB page where they post pictures of the dogs and how they’re doing!
My first ever using a daycare !! Couldn’t be happier! My baby was happy and exhausted when I picked him up!!
We love D Pet Hotels for our Rosie girl. The staff is always so friendly and helpful and she literally whines with excitement as soon as we pull into the parking lot. It is such a treat to be able to go on vacation and relax knowing she is in the best care. They send pictures throughout the day and she is always so tired when she gets home from playing. Cannot recommend them enough!
DO NOT PUT YOUR DOG THERE !!!!! Photos attached!! I used their service couple weeks ago when I went to vacation, when I come back my beautiful loyal best friend had a missing eye!!!!! Apparently they put him with another big dog and this is the results!!!! I’m completely sad and devastated! I warning them and ask them to have him with small dogs only! Now after all they don’t take any responsibility for it and they not willing to pay for the medical treatment etc etc
THE moment I walked through the door I knew this is it... wonderful staff Carrie ,Chris , lea , ,Sara they are like family they love playing with our precious dogs .. you can feel that right away. the place is very clean and there prices are very reasonable.. I am truly happy that I found this wonderful place .
This is the second time we have left our pups with D Pets and both times we were very pleased with the care and love the staff showed our dogs. They respond to questions very quickly, and our dogs were extremely well cared for and happy and relaxed. I highly recommend D-Pet Hotels boarding service.
I am a new dog mom and I am so happy I found D Pet Hotels for boarding and day care. Leo loves playing with his friends and all the dogs seem so well behaved and taken care of. I travel frequently, so I am thrilled to have found a safe and fun place for Leo.

My Pomeranian had an absolutely fabulous grooming session at Pet Rock Hotel and Spa! They're truly skilled with various cuts, from the classic "boo" to lion cuts, and they master every Pomeranian style. What sets them apart is their attention to detail - they not only expertly cut my dog's hair but also file his nails and express his glands, a service I haven't found elsewhere. My friends with different breeds have also had outstanding experiences. I must commend their exceptional grooming skills! Additionally, they provide excellent daycare services at an affordable price for when I'm out of town. Delighted with their grooming expertise and considerate pet care offerings!
Absolutely love petrock, the level of love and care they have for animals is very apparent as soon as you enter. I would not trust any other place with my boy. If you love you pet, go to petrock, your pet will thank you
They really understand the concept taking care of dogs and providing a clean and safe environment.. Immediately Roscoe was in doggy day care heaven he loved the attention he was given by the staff when I went to pick him up he literally didn’t want to leave although he was excited to see me it was almost like he wanted me to stay! All I can say is I’m very happy with this place and would recommend it to any loving dog owner.
The Petrock is one of the cleanest boarding spa's I have seen. I take my FGSD there at least 3 to 4 times a week. The help is so nice and the hotel is spotless. I truly rely on this place to take great care of my puppy. The best part is when I pick her up she always smells great. They truly care about your pet. GM
I found them today on my way to check out the new planet fitness. I was surprised and happy. The inside looked great and very clean the staff was very friendly and informative. I asked them about pricing and other pet related questions and they were very reasonable! I will be taking my puppy there very soon.
They took great care of my pets! They don't freak out when dogs wrestle, which I love because they only stop if one of them is getting hurt. They let them act like they're supposed to. Love this place too they gave them St.Patricks day bandana's!! Love this place, would give it 10 stars if I could
I love this place. I've been bringing my 13 year old dog here for years. Every time i go pick him up, he comes out looking and smelling great, and i you can just tell he feels young and happy. I brought my new puppy there for his first time a few months ago and they worked their magic on him too. They make all dogs look flawless and I feel very safe leaving my dogs there with them. Can't really say that about any other place. My sister used to volunteer here, so i know they DEFINITELY only hire animal/dog lovers. I'll never go anywhere else :) PS. To top it all off; they give report cards/ progress reports with a check list for your pet to let you know how they behaved, or if they have anything specific the owner should be aware of. (ie. tics, fleas, scabs) nothing can be better! Love you guys!
This place is the absolute best! They always take amazing care of my shy little Pomeranian. They send picture and video updates daily and let him play with the other animals. They even keep track of vet records and reminded me when vaccines were going to be due. I also started buy this holistic brand of pet food from them and get it much cheaper then other stores. Grooming services are also amazing! Nothing but good things to say about pet rock. You can check out my dog @shylo_the_Pomeranian
Pet Rock Hotel provides exceptional boarding and grooming services for pets. Everytime I have brought my French Bulldog, Rave, here she has a blast. I love how they keep you intouch with your fur baby while you are on vacation with sending you photos and videos of them during the stay. Another perk is the events they conduct. Recently I attended the Halloween Costume Party and where beverages and snacks were provided along with a contest and snacks for dogs! Thanks Pet Rock Hotel for being amazing!
Clean, cost efficient, and fun. Our pup loves this place. Boarding, daycare and grooming, consistently great service.

Fay is an absolute Angel! I can’t say enough positive things about the entire experience of leaving my 2 girls with her. I have a geriatric 14.5 year old who is now going senile so she’s special needs. I really need someone I trust to be patient and kind to her. Fay is wonderful. I got updates and didn’t worry one bit. They’re in the BEST hands with Fay. Thank you, Fay. ♥️
This review is long overdue! We have used Fay at least 5 separate occasions and she is seriously the best!! We have a very sensitive doodle and tried a couple other places before moving to Woodland Hills and he was always mad at us. He loves being at Fay’s and I fully trust he is in good hands with her. She sends so many updates everyday which gives me peace of mind. 10/10 recommend!
Fay love's dogs. She is kind and attractive to your animals needs. She sends pictures of them to you while they are in her care.
We had a great experience with Fay. We boarded our kitten for a long weekend. I was impressed with her set-up -- our kitten had a lot of space and the environment felt very safe. My young daughter was upset at the thought of leaving him, and Fay was very sweet with her, going above and beyond to reassure and comfort her, and by the time we left my daughter felt much better. Fay sent us photos and updates regularly during our trip. When we picked up a few days later and got home, I was surprised by how relaxed our kitten seemed. I've boarded cats with others in the past and they always came home stressed out. But not this time -- it hardly seemed like we'd gone away at all. I will be back.
I was incredibly anxious as this was our first time leaving our pet Olive alone! Fay was super patient with me and talking with me for many weeks prior to Olive's boarding, answering all of my questions and reassuring me. When I first stepped into the home and met Fay in person, I just felt all of my anxiety melt away. The feeling is not something one can explain. Fay truly has a gift with both people and animals. Olive had her own room, her own bathroom, lots of different toys, even a TV for stimulation! :) What was interesting is during the trip, I'd be thinking about Olive and there was Fay sending me pictures updating on her! It's like she reads my mind! Olive was incredibly happy and she was so sad to leave Auntie Fay! Now that we got our first travel trip over with - we are already planning a few more trips in the next year and plan to drop Olive again to Fay!
Fay is the absolute best pet sitter in the San Fernando Valley!!! Its no contest. She has SO much love for animals - you will see what I mean when you meet her in person. We brought our princess tortie (olive) to her while we were away for a few days and it was a true 5-star hotel experience for our cat. In fact, I think our cat is sad she had to leave after being pampered by Fay with ton of toys, cat condos to climb, a private master room , windows to watch outside etc. Im pretty certain our cat misses Fay now because it was that great of an exp for her. Fay will be easily be our go to pet sitter whenever we need the help. Thank you to Fay and her Husband for taking care of Olive 🙂
Faye is amazing. She is our go to person whenever we leave town and need our dog Alfie cared for. Alfie always comes home looking happy and unchanged ( not sad or aggressive or anything). Faye makes all the fogs comfortable, she spends time with them, gets to know your dog personally, and sends photos regularly. We couldn’t be more satisfied and feel reassured to know that we have Faye’s service whenever we need to board Alfie. Alfie even met his best friend , they’d cuddle during the day and watch out for each other - this other dog was a blind, gentle pit bull mix- knowing that Faye can even cater to special needs pets is reassuring.
This was the first time we used Fay's Loving Pets Boarding and we were super pleased. Faye far exceeded our expectations and took such great care of our fur babies. Her nurturing love of dogs and all animals really stood out when we first met and we knew they would be in great hands! Highly recommend and will definitely be using her services again. So glad to have found her!
Had the most amazing experience with Fay’s loving Pet Care. My Julie is an older pit I’ll mix who requires a lot more accommodations and Fay had no problem doing so! She gave her a private room, fed her the special meals I gave her, and sent me photos and texts to keep me posted every day that I was gone! I can’t imagine leaving Julie with anyone else! Fay has become like extended family, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. She opens up her home and takes care of your fur-children like her own. Thank you Fay and David!!!
Where do I begin! I have never used a boarding service for my cats. I asked around and people offered to board my 1 yr old cat, but I just did not feel comfortable taking my cat to just anyone. I went to Yelp and after looking at a few businesses, I came across Fay’s Pet’s Boarding. I am soooooo glad I found her!!!! All the reviews and pictures, and just talking to Fay made me feel comfortable. She truly cares for all animals. I loved the fact that pets were not kept in carriers. They had rooms to roam around! The initial plan was to board my cat for 5-6 days, we’ll that turned into almost two weeks! Throughout my cat’s stay, Fay sent me updates and daily pictures of what my cat was doing 🥰 My husband and I were happy and relieved that we knew our cat was in great loving hands. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for this type of service. We will definitely be using her again!
Paw Haven

Recent Reviews:
Paw Haven is the BEST boarding facility Ive ever found. I've tried at least 7 different places over the last 10 years & I'm truly in awe with the care & attention they pay to the animals here. I had my dog stay at other, bigger, more known boarding facilities & always had issues whether they didn't have enough people watching the dogs or the place wasn't that clean or sanitary or they wouldn't feed my dog & I would pick her up later looking all thin & frail. Paw Haven was such a BETTER experience! They take such good care of the animals & really care about their well being. I left my dog there for a while when I was traveling & my baby girl was so happy there. You could tell because she would eat regularly, play, get outside and get sunshine & all the love. I almost wondered if she even wanted to come home with me. The staff there are all very friendly & professional & I truly cannot think of a better place & experience that I've had living in Los Angeles all these years. Grateful to have found Paw Haven & will always be sending my dogs & all my family & friends there!
Paw Haven is absolutely amazing! My German Shepherd was happy as can be, and I felt so safe and confident leaving him in their care. The love and attention they gave him was top-notch, and I couldn’t be happier that I found this place. Definitely a five-star experience!
Tony help us a lot, amazing person with the dogs, we flew all way from New York planning to go to universal, we lave her here for 7 hours. They even have cameras so you can check your dog on live time, very recommended
This place is PAWesome!!! It's decorated so cute and you can tell the owner really loves dogs. She is there herself on a daily basis at the front desk overseeing everything. The dogs have so much space to play and run around, and the rooms for boarding are beyond adorable. There are no crates or cages for boarding, which I love, and they have someone who stays overnight with the dogs! Their groomer is super caring and friendly, too. Overall, the vibe is like that of a family member who would take care of your fur baby like their own. Can't ask for anything more than that!
recently had the pleasure of entrusting my furry friend to Paw Haven, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we walked in, it was clear that this place is dedicated to providing top-notch care for dogs. Rosalie and The staff at Paw Haven are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. They took the time to get to know my dog's personality and needs, ensuring she felt comfortable and safe. The facility is clean, spacious, and filled with a variety of toys and activities to keep the dogs entertained. One of the standout features of Paw Haven is their play area. It's large and well-maintained, giving the dogs plenty of space to run and play. I also appreciate the live video feed I can access, so I could see how much fun my dog was having throughout the day. Overall, Paw Haven is a fantastic doggie daycare that truly cares about the well-being and happiness of their furry clients. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and loving place for their dog.
I found this place on Google and based on the reviews decided to give them a shot. I have a Dutch Shepherd (1st time boarding) and she is very reactive and does not get along with other dogs, but that was not an issue with Paw Haven! It was an amazing experience from the initial meeting to pickup. I couldn't be happier with the service. The staff is super friendly, and kind, and they will take their time answering any questions that you might have. I was able to get updates via text message, which gave me a peace of mind and also the variety of services they offer is next level. I did also get the daily walks package they offer and over all I couldn't be happier with my decision in choosing them. Definitely call them to take care of your fur babies. You will not be disappointed!
Paw Haven Hotel !!! A Home Away from Home for Your Fur Baby When it comes to finding a place for my Chihuahua, Blanco, I’m incredibly selective. As a devoted pet owner, I want nothing less than exceptional care for him, and Paw Haven Hotel has exceeded every expectation I could imagine. From the moment we walked in, it was clear that this isn’t just a business—it’s a labor of love. The owners are genuine dog lovers and dog owners themselves, and their passion for providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets shines through in everything they do. Blanco has a unique personality—he’s a bit timid and requires a lot of patience. The staff at Paw Haven Hotel not only understood his needs but also went above and beyond to ensure he felt at ease. They took time to bond with him, offering treats, gentle playtime, and constant reassurance. By the end of his stay, he wasn’t just comfortable; he was genuinely happy. What truly sets Paw Haven Hotel apart is the attention to detail and the personalized care each pet receives. They maintain a clean, cozy facility equipped with all the comforts a dog could dream of—spacious play areas, soft bedding, and even specialized menus for picky eaters like Blanco. I’m also deeply impressed by how much the owners prioritize the dogs’ well-being over profit. They take the time to understand each pet’s personality, preferences, and any special requirements. It’s clear they’re doing this because they genuinely love dogs, not just as a business venture. Every time I pick up Blanco, he’s not just clean and well-fed; he’s joyful and relaxed. That peace of mind is priceless. If you’re looking for a place where your pet will be cared for as if they’re family, Paw Haven Hotel is the only choice. I can’t recommend them enough! Five stars, paws down!
Paw Haven is a FANTASTIC facility run by genuinely kind and caring staff. We are out-of-towners with family in LA, and need to board our dog periodically — Paw Haven will be our go-to! We ran into some car trouble on our way, and the staff were incredibly kind and accommodating. They have staff onsite 24/7, and lots of boarding options so we could feel confident leaving our pup there. Our dog Laszlo had a blast and was clearly very happy (and tired) when we picked him up.
I love bringing my puppy here! Tony and the owner Rose are always so sweet every time I come pick her up. My puppy has such a good time here and I highly recommend coming here!
I would recommend Paw Haven Dog Daycare and Boarding in Sherman Oaks without hesitation. Paw Haven does an extraordinary job of caring for our dog. He has some serious medical issues and is on 7 different medicines which he needs to take 3 times daily! We recently boarded him for several days, and Paw Haven did not miss even one med. Not only are they extremely conscientious, but the place is very clean and welcoming. My dog loves it there! And we love it, too, because he is happy there and gets good care! Paw Haven is absolutely a Five Star doggy daycare.

Our baby loves this place! he comes home tired, happy, and fed. We love how the staff treat him and we can tell he loves them too because every time we drop him off he knows exactly where to go and his tail is always waggin! We love that they send us pictures/report cards of his day and the webcams are super helpful because I can spy on my little one. overall I would highly recommend Dog-E-Den.
They simply love dogs here at Dog-E-Den in Sherman Oaks. I was very nervous because my 13 year-old male cockapoo is a shy guy, but I needed a place for him to stay during the day for several months. Their flexibility with drop-off, pick-up and extended hours was especially helpful. The staff greeted him with such enthusiasm and kindness each day.There was always a human in the den with the dogs who paid special attention to individual animals when needed. Our dog eventually started mixing with the others, and soon looked forward to going. The staff sends home photos and a “report card” each day; our dog’s playful changes were evident. We returned, today, after a long absence. He received a warm welcome, and after a brief hesitation, jumped back into the play.
I boarded my 11 year old dog for 9 days at Dog-E-Den in a private room. It was a very easy & smooth experience making a reservation, checking him in & out and felt he was in very safe and capable hands while I was away. Their live webcams are a great perk as well!
I brought my Shih Tzu to Patty, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! My poor pup had some serious matting, and I was worried about how he would handle the grooming process. But Patty was incredibly gentle and patient, putting both my dog and me at ease. When I picked him up, I was amazed at how great he looked! His coat was soft, fluffy, and perfectly trimmed, with no signs of the mats that had been there before. Patty really took the time to ensure my dog was comfortable and happy throughout the process. I can’t recommend Patty enough! If you’re looking for a groomer who truly cares about your pet and does an outstanding job, this is the place to go.
I've been taking my Husky here for about 3 years, and she always has a good time. The staff do a good job of creating a safe play environment for all dogs. There are also webcams for customers to access to see how well there dog is doing. They also send emails with pictures to show how they spend the day. All in all, I'm happy to have found a place that has taken good care of my dog.
Patty is the only one I trust him with. But may I also put this out there...PATTY, YOU OUT DID YOURSELF!! This is the best hair cut ever! Thank You!, again. Debbie & Max. I love this establishment! They are clean, caring, and efficient It's convenient and in checking around I found them to have the best prices in the area. Personally, I feel like I'm getting the best here.
My dogs loves this place, so happy to get there and play. The staff members are so nice and friendly and always know my dogs name. Would definitely recommend.
It was my first time at doggy den with my new rescue. Frank and the staff was so wonderful. The place was very clean and I felt like the dog was taking care of in a safe environment to have a good time.
Absolutely loved it! My puppy loved it too! Super nice, super helpful! Made me feel so comfortable & safe leaving my puppy with them! Definitely will be bringing her here!
Wonderful experience! I was worried about my dogs anxiety and they were so kind knowledgeable and positive ! My dog has a new place to play ! Thanks

Wow! I’m not sure where to start. My experience with Mia and here staff was wonderful. They provided exceptional care for my 2 senior cats. They not only fed them during their visits but spent time with them, brushed them cleaned up after them and sent me photos of my pets so I could see that they were in good hands. It put me at ease and made my time away more enjoyable. I highly recommend Mia and her staff at Sitters4paws. I know I will use them again when future needs arise.
Excellent pet care! They took care of my unfriendly cat for 4 days - and actually made friends with her! Followed directions to the letter and went above and beyond by cleaning up unexpected messes. Highly recommend.

I’m so happy and excited for my wonderful experience with pet lovers resort. My sweet and beautiful furry babies deserve the best and I for sure got it in pet lovers resort. They’re all kind, caring and professional. My pets are happy going in and come out beautiful and rested. Thank you parisa and her team. 🧡🤍🤎 …
I couldn’t be happier with the grooming services here! My dog always looks and smells amazing after each visit. The groomers are incredibly gentle and patient, which is so important since my dog can be a little nervous. They always listen to my requests and make sure my pup is comfortable. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a top-notch grooming experience!
“I recently took my cat in for grooming, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! The groomer was incredibly gentle and attentive to my cat’s needs, taking the time to make sure Sal was comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. My cat’s coat has never looked better—soft, shiny, and completely tangle-free. The grooming also helped reduce shedding, which has made a huge difference at home. I highly recommend this service to any cat owner. It’s clear that they genuinely care about the animals they work with, and the results speak for themselves!” 🙏🏻🫶
I love this place, I have tried many different places, but none of them have been as responsible and kind to my dog. I think it’s better to take our animals to a mama papa shop versus the big brands that look at our animals as numbers.
So so happy that we took them there for grooming, they did a very clean and beautiful job🧡🙏 …
I am incredibly grateful to Pet Lovers Resort for their exceptional care. When we had to leave our dog, Snow, unexpectedly due to a family emergency out of state, they treated her with the utmost love and attention. When we returned to pick her up, she was not only joyful but also fluffier than I've ever seen her! I wholeheartedly recommend them—they truly deserve more than five stars. Thank you for making the right decision so easy!
We enjoy bringing our two Maltese dogs to this place. We have complete confidence in their care. They are excellent at following directions and treating our pets with kindness. Parisa, the owner, is a wonderful person who genuinely cares about her clients.
I've visited Pet Lover’s Resort three times, although never with my own dog. On the first occasion, I brought my sister’s dog, and on the subsequent visits, I took my cousin’s dog. The service was excellent on the first and second visits, and the pricing was reasonable. During the second visit, I requested grooming and a curtain trim for my cousin’s dog, which was done well for around $60. However, my experience on the third visit was different. I requested only a basic grooming service—just a wash and blow dry, without any additional services like haircuts, teeth brushing, or nail trims. They initially quoted $90 for this, which seemed unreasonable, given that I had paid less for more services previously. After discussing the pricing with the owner, she agreed to lower it to $65. Later, I received a call from the front desk stating the charge would be $60, which I accepted. However, upon arrival, I was informed the fee was $65, as initially discussed. The inconsistency and lack of clear communication were frustrating, as it wasn’t about the extra five dollars, but rather the principle of the situation. Additionally, after the third visit, I noticed that my cousin's dog did not smell like anything at all, which was disappointing. This added to my annoyance, as I expected at least a pleasant scent after grooming.
I love this place. Very friendly and professional. When my dog stays there I simetimes ask them to bathe or groom him. So, very convenient. Their over night stay rooms are big as well. Highly recommend them.
Picked my pup up after 3 days and she has laryngitis from excessive barking..the owner said my dog didn't bark at all.. Really? Well that's clearly a lie and now I'm pretty sure she was neglected..what a sham

This place is beyond awesome! We took our Shiba Inu to the place when we visited Universal Studio. Shan and Dan's dogs are all really sweet and nice, our baby really enjoyed playing with them and he even cried when we picked him up because he had so much fun there and didn't want to leave! Definitely would recommend this place if you ever need to bring your dogs to daycare.
This place is awesome!! My pup was so happy while staying there, she meet new friends. The sitters were very responsive to text mesaages, even sent some pictures so that we can see what my lil one was doing. We will definitely be back when we visit CA again.
On vacation from our Las Vegas home, we have the extreme good fortune to find HOUNDS OF THE HILLS where we boarded our three little dog babies for a week. They were so loved, had much attention, many walks and really had a fun time. This place has no equal....it is simply the best.
Our Dog had a great time. The owner was very friendly. She met all of our expectations and more. The next time I am in California I will be taking my dog here for sure!
They took very good care of our pups while we went to universal studios.
Our dog Jerry loves coming here! Always comes home exhausted from time at daycare.
Best place to leave your furry friend, and very covenant if going to Universal Studios!
STGreat people to care for your four legged family member while the rest of the family is visiting Universal Studios.
Very kind and flexible
Great people!

Charlie was amazing! I went home for the holidays and had to board my cat for two weeks. I received pictures or videos every day and I knew that my Kitty was safe and happy while I was gone. I will definitely send her to stay with Charlie again!
Lisa was amazing! This service was very easy to use and navigate and we were paired with the best cat sitter ever! She was very reliable and accommodating as we needed our cats watched on very VERY last minute notice. Lisa sent us photos every day of our fur babies, sent updates on how they were adapting to being away from home, and used treats to get even our most shy cat to come around and become acclimated to the new environment. It’s very obvious she loves animals and she treated my cats as her own. Highly recommend this service and especially Lisa! We will definitely be calling and requesting Lisa for the next time we need the kitties watched.
My cat Boone was so well taken care of he didn’t want to come home- I highly recommend Lots of Love Pet Boarding for long and short term stays- I was in NYC for a month working and my fur baby couldn’t have been happier- A+++++++
I am so glad I decided to go through with boarding my cat Oreo with Suzi. I was hesitant to try a place that wasn’t a conventional facility, but now that I know a service like this exists where you can board your cat in a sitters home, I will always rather go with this option. Suzi sent me updates of my cat daily and since I was traveling to another country and didn’t have phone service she accommodated me by sending the updates to my WhatsApp which was pretty cool. She also gave me the option to video chat with my cat. I highly recommend this service and will definitely be back again.
Lisa is just the best! We felt comfortable leaving our fur baby Enzo in her hands. She sent photos and updates daily and took such great care of him. She is our go to from now on!
My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people but not with Rouhy! Buster loved Rouhy from the start and even slept in bed with Rouhy—that’s a miracle! Rouhy is patient and kind. She sent me pictures and videos of my dog Buster, daily. She truly loves dogs! And dogs love her! We knew it would be a safe and comfortable place to leave our dear Buster for the week. For our picky pup, we only go to Rouhy!
I have really enjoyed using this pet service for my little kitty. Faith was very quick to respond to me and I was assigned to Charlie immediately. I have been working with them for about a year now. It’s been a good experience.
Thank you so much, Lisa, for helping us out last minute!! I wish it was for a vacation and not a family situation - but, when we do go on vacation we will definitely bring the cats back!! Thank you so much for treating them like your own. You are truly special and the cats loved you!
Lucky to find this dog boarding place near me. Much appreciation for all the care and attention to my dog Samson.
Its nice. Very Expensive though. Look with fine tooth comb. But, with effort you will find good one.
