Affectionate & trustworthy care for your pets
John was communicative and great to work with right away and continued to be so throughout the stay. He took good care of my pups and house and everything was clean and the dogs were happy when I got back. I hope John is able to watch them again in the future.

Dependable house sitter, dog lover and traveler.
I can’t say enough good things about Daniel. He is organized, communicative and a really nice person. My dog Max loves when Daniel comes to sit with him. Daniel sent some great pictures of Max on hikes they went on which I appreciated as I was missing seeing the fall leaves changing (as well as missing Max!). You would be lucky to have Daniel stay with your pet! Thank you Daniel!!

Working professional available to care for your pets!
Helpful, kind, considerate! Erin listened to the details, kept my critters safe and healthy for my return. I had a full body exhale seeing how clean my space was when I returned home late last night. She even put clean sheets on my bed. An absolute delight - I hope our paths cross again!

Experienced sitter and resident optimist! Cared for 100+ cats, dogs, and more.
Nicholas was a wonderful pet sitter for our 3 cats - Tigger, Keiko and Sassy! He sent photos each night and a summary of the day's events. Our cats bonded with Nicholas, and we came home to stress free cats! The house was clean, he even stripped the bed and put the towels and bedding in basket! I would definitely call on him again to sit for our cats! Thank you, Nicholas!

Digital nomad looking for furry companions
This was the only difficult sit we have had in several years and 17 different sitters with TH. It was originally planned for 6 weeks and we always meet our sitters for an orientation and to get a "vibe". She could not meet us ahead of time. However, since she had a five star rating, we took a risk and left without waiting for her arrival which was much later than expected. By the end of the first week we were frustrated with her irregular and snarky communications. (She was often too "ill" or "tired" to give us updates on our aged kitty.) At one point we were afraid she might need medical attention since we were unable to reach her for almost 24 hours so we asked a neighbor to check on her which she found very upsetting. Later, when the neighbors complained that a man who appeared to be living out of his car was parking at different places in our neighborhood and going to our home to stay the night we'd had enough. Since we were 2000 miles away, we contacted TH and our neighbors for help and ultimately told her to leave. After our neighbors escorted her off the property we discovered the kitty box was overflowing and his fresh water dish was empty. Our closed off master bedroom was being used as a storage facility for her/their personal items. To her credit however, she did take the time to vacuum and straighten while the neighbors waited to ensure a smooth exit. A neighbor immediately changed the locks and the garage door code. A troubling experience.

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! 
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
We can not exaggerate the care and love Juliet and Laurent gave to our cat, Piero, during his the last few weeks of life. While we left for our trip thinking he merely had a bladder infection, his symptoms turned for the worse a weeks into their sit and later revealed he had cancer. No one would wish their sitter to need to hospice their cat but Juliet and Laurent showed such compassion for Piero and volunteered to be with him when we made the decision to put him down. It was an emotional time for all of us and we will be forever grateful to our two caring cat and house sitters. We have had many fantastic housesitters through zeewoi but Juliet and Laurent top the list. Their professionalism, constant communication and compassion were exceptional. Should you have the opportunity to have them in your home, do not hesitate to book them, you will have no regrets. We do, however, regret that they had such a short time with Piero and had to experience such a painful event.
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
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!
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, $21/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 couldn’t be happier with the care Rusty received at Ashcroft Pet Resort! The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about animals. Rusty was comfortable, happy, and came home looking well-groomed and content. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and the staff goes above and beyond to make each pet’s stay special. I felt at ease knowing Rusty was in such capable hands, and I will absolutely bring him back here in the future. Highly recommend!
I would give zero stars if that were an option. The negligence of Ashcroft directly led to the death of both of our dogs. We had a family emergency that took us out of town for 10 weeks. Our regular pet sitter and kennel were full and we were desperate. In reading Ashcroft’s reviews, they seemed like a good option and had availability last minute. Perhaps that should have told us something, but hindsight’s 20/20. What followed was a heartbreaking nightmare. Our sweet, older BuddyBoy sustained a deep wound to his carpus and had to be transferred to our vet while we were still away. His wound was already becoming necrotic by the time our vet saw him. The only explanation Ashcroft gave was maybe it was from the way he was lying in his kennel?! Several weeks of IV antibiotics and wound care at our vet weren’t able to heal his injuries. We had to say goodbye to him the day after returning. BuddyBoy never made it home. Our younger, previously healthy girl, Trixie, was visually skeletal when we picked her up. She had lost 1/3 of her body weight while at Ashcroft and was obviously ill and struggling for breath. Within 12 hours, we had to take her to the ICU at CSU. We were told she was fully septic and near death. All this, despite us being assured she was “doing great” every time we spoke with someone at Ashcroft. And we called every 2-3 days! We did everything we could to save them both (20k in vet bills/ICU at CSU Veterinary Hospital- awesome staff there!!-), but the damage was too great. We lost our boy within the first 24 hours of arriving in town. Our girl fought her little heart out but she’d sustained permanent organ damage and we had to say goodbye to little Trix as well. You never think when you board your dogs that you might not ever have them home again. We sent an email detailing all of this to Ashcroft. We received no response, only silence. Heartbreaking. In essence, we paid Ashcroft $4,139.90 to kill both of our dogs. Please don’t let this happen to you.
Only had one day there for daycare with my puppy so far, but he had a great time. It was his first ever big socialization event and the staff were great easing him into the experience and helping him gain confidence. The report card they sent me at the end of the day was fantastic! He will definitely be going back. Huge plus that they do tours for pet parents, and meet and greet days for free.
We absolutely LOVE Ashcroft! The entire staff is always happy to be there and excited to see our crazy pup, Benny, when he shows up! Best of all, Benny loves it as much as we do! All we have to do is say “Do you want to go play today?” and he starts jumping up and down with excitement. Along with having fun and being socialized he is also chill and tired with the Doggie Daycare hangover when he gets home. Best sign he had a fun day. We use Ashcroft for boarding and grooming as well and could not emphasize enough how great they all are. We are so lucky to have them and trust me, you’ll feel the same way!
I left my dog, Hazel, for a little under 2 weeks and provided a bed for her to use in her bin and Ashcroft did not use the bed which resulted in my dog developing pressure wounds on all of her legs because she refused to lay in the kennel’s bedding. My dog was much skinnier and tired after picking her up, which was questionable. They never once called and said anything about the bedding and only mentioned a “small scrape” on her paw, which I never even saw. A week after picking her up, my dog developed a skin infection which cost me $450 to treat at the vet and when I called Ashcroft, they said they can’t do anything because I didn’t add the extra insurance, which no one ever offered me or told me was an option when signing her up for boarding. They also gave Hazel a bath and charged me for it even though I did not request this and had to pay it. I do NOT recommend this boarding kennel, and if you do go there, get their dumb insurance and go to the vet within 5 days or they won’t cover anything! EDIT: they responded to this post but have yet to return my calls to the number provided. DO NOT BOOK HERE!!!! My dog is still suffering the health consequences.
The staff did an amazing job keeping us informed on how my 3 puppers were doing, with pictures and daily report card(which I loved getting). They did also were able to give 2 out of 3 dogs their meds. I did take a tour of the kennels. Very clean and well maintained. Have lots to do for the dogs when they go outside and the staff has good interaction with the dogs( giving them pets and cuddles when needed).
What a huge relief! I was truly struggling trying to find GOOD place for my fur baby. This place is doggie HEAVEN!! I am a very anxious dog mama, and everyone there was so friendly and patient with ALL of my questions! After Kiowa’s meet and greet it was so reassuring to get a report card! So cute! My boy absolutely LOVES it here. All day he gets to play with his new friends and is taken care of. The staff here genuinely care for all the pups as if they were their own, and I really adore that. When I pick my boy up he is all worn out from the fun day he had, and we cuddle for the rest of the night. If you want a place where your fur baby will be safe, be taken care of, and have an absolute amazing time, Ashcroft is the place to go! 10/10 I recommend. Thank you Ashcroft!
As a new client, we arrived for my 11mo old dog’s Meet & Greet only to have a staff member immediately recognize my dog from the information on the intake form. It’s clear they do their homework and care about each individual dog. He had an awesome experience and we received a detailed report card—filled with adorable photos of his day. This after an employee gave a detailed and informative run down of his day. I’ll post another review as our experience grows, but first impressions were flawless!
The team at Ashcroft Pet Resort saved my dog’s life today. She started having breathing issues and a team member rushed my dog to an emergency vet. The vet said that five minutes later and I would have lost my best bud. I have always had the best experience at Ashcroft, whether boarding or grooming. Both my dogs get excited to visit. This is an exceptional business and an outstanding team that truly cares for your pet. Thank you!
Wonderful place to board our doggos. The puppy report card at the end of the day was so reassuring. They were well taken care of and were happy when they came home. Our big guy needed a shirt on because he had some stitches that weren't quite ready to come out. They helped make sure that nothing happened and his shirt stayed on
I moved to CO from CA in June 2023 and found Poochy Doo's even prior to my move and so glad I did! They are the only pet sitting service I've used here and the only one I will use. Ellie and Ozzy's established sitter is Janet and she is so sweet and thoughtful with me, as well as the dogs absolutely loving her, sending text updates and pictures with each visit. I never have to worry about my dogs (or my house) when Poochy Doo's is there. Since June 2023 I have used Poochy Doo's at least a dozen times and currently have several more dates on the schedule...the ease of scheduling services online is wonderful too. Their level of care and commitment is above and beyond!
We highly recommend Poochy Doos! Our dogs fell in love with them! Janet and Mary are amazing and super professional! We never worried while we were away because we knew they were safe and very happy! Wonderful people and a wonderful company!!
Poochy Doo's was professional and caring from start to finish. I have never felt so comfortable leaving the care of my cats to anyone, including friends and family. I received updates and pictures at every visit. I think that Charissa, who was my pet sitter, is a cat whisperer. She made my kitty who generally doesn't like strangers her good buddy. I would definitely use this service again and strongly recommend them to others.
We could not be happier with our experience with Poochy Doos! We called them super last minute for cat sitting before leaving town and Mary made sure she could fit us in. Ann, our pet sitter, is amazing! She is constantly updating us and making sure we know our two little ones are doing great! We are so grateful we can keep them in our home and know they are safe, well cared for, and comfortable. We look forward to having Ann watch our cats the next time we head out of town. Would absolutely recommend them for anyone wanting caring people to look after their pets!
Poochy are very professional, and we are delighted with their service. We had to go away for 3 days, and Mary who is one of the co-owners, sat for us -- including overnight visits and daytime drop-ins. Our two pups obviously had a great time, as we could see from the many photos and videos Mary texted to us. We will definitely be using them again when we need pup-sitting in future.
I normally don't do reviews but I had such a positive experience with Poochy Doos that I felt the need to let other pet owners know about them. I had to leave town unexpectedly due to a death in the family. Ann and Mary were able to put a plan in place for me on extremely short notice and removed my worry of having to somehow take care of my 2 dogs, cat, and rabbit. You receive continuous text updates during the process along with a detailed log of how each visit to the house went. The pricing is extremely reasonable in my opinion. Can't recommend this company enough.
I have always been skeptical about leaving my dogs in the care of other people. I travel a lot nationally and internationally for field work and conferences...Mary and her team have made my life so much easier! They are the best at what they do and extremely professional. Mary is in constant communication updating me on what the boys have been up to and if a medical issue arises she handles everything. I highly recommend Poochy Doos. The fact that my dogs barely even notice I've come home from a trip is proof enough that they are in the best care possible. Thanks to Mary and her stellar team!
Poochy Doos = amazing! We recently got a new puppy, and making sure he receives the care he needs (while we keep our own jobs!) is a lot of work. Fortunately, Poochy Doos has come to our rescue! They take him on walks during the days when we are away at the office. They also have stayed in our home twice for weekends/overnight care when we were out of town. They are careful and caring with our puppy and our home. We could not do this without them, and are so thankful for the prompt, professional, and loving service provided.
Because of uncooperative knees and a happy dog who needs regular exercise, Mary (co-owner), came into our lives after Poochy Doos was recommended to us by our vet. My husband and I have privately said more than once what a gift Mary is to our life...someone for whom we are deeply thankful. So, I decided to share publicly, which I don't normally do, our private words. Yes, being on a fixed income, we have had to juggle the budget, but the fees (because of the professionalism) are fair. For us, the benefits far out way any cost. We have and do highly recommend Mary, Ann, and their company.
Poochy Doos has been a wonderful service that we have used a few times for our two dogs.Our dogs would not do well being kenneled so I looked for a alternative option.I wish I started using them years ago! I love getting the text messages and notes while we are away which makes me know that my dogs are doing well. I love having the online account with them which makes it super easy to schedule pet sitting.
Four Paws is still our only choice for our dogs. We've been using them since 2017. Never an issue with our dog. She never gets sick or has been injured. They have an actual Vet right next door. People there are wonderful. Our dog actually pulls to go into the building when we arrive. You get what you pay for and they treat our dog as we would. That peace of mind is worth it.
I LOVE that they have cameras everywhere so I can see what my senior dog is doing at day care and when boarding. I can see 24/7 that he is in good hands, and there is no "filtering" of the images and video. That's a bold statement that the owners are willing to show off the quality of their care and their personnel. Both our dogs are over the top excited to go to Four Paws Day Care. Brenda and her husband Mike are kind, professional and dedicated to quality pet care. We’ve only had positive experiences over the last nine years, and my fourteen year old Aussie will be going there until he can’t walk anymore.
We started bringing our dog, Koda, here to swim when he needed TPLO surgery since he couldn't get his exercise while running. Two years later, post surgery, and he's still got a swimming appointment once a week. He just loves it!! Have never borded or groomed with Four Paws, but family and friends have and they all have glowing recommendations for those services.
User beware if you like your privacy. If you book a private swim, it is not private. They have a pool rules agreement to sign and if you agree you are agreeing to allow access to anyone who has the camera access regardless if it is your paid private time or not. If this was only done during public play time I would have no issue as that would be just like going out in public or to a park. But to pay for a private session and to give other video access is not private. This is accessible by anyone not just staff (if it was staff only and for safety or something like that I would also understand). They even offered me the access to log in even though I was not an established client. They also have a section on the form that says "I authorize Four Paws to use and publish those photographs in print and/or electronically with or without my name/pets names for any lawful purpose including such purposes as publicity, illustration, advertising and Web content" . Response to owner: I called before I cancelled my appointment and made this review. I was basically told that a private session is still viewed by others and there is nothing that can be done. As I like my privacy I will not utilize your services until you allow complete private sessions (active on the clock staff excepted).
They do a great job here! Our cat had a room with a view (of a bird feeder). We could check in on him anytime with a video feed. The prices are very good also. 10/10 will use again. And they sent us a cute text with photos to let us know how he was
We brought our 2 year old husky mix who was afraid to swim for an introduction to the pool with a swim instructor. Emma was fantastic . She was so kind and patient with our girl. They provided a swim vest and after 15 minutes she was swimming . We are so happy and will recommend this wonderful pet resort to all our friends!
Best place to leave your pet. My little kitten was living the good life here. She was probably sad to come home to our little hovel after the amazing care she received here. I highly recommend this place. Ultra clean, great facilities, wonderful staff.
The facilities for cats appeared to be quite nice. However, the customer service is below average. Trying to get a live person on the phone is a real issue. When I asked about this, all I received were excuses. The scheduled tour I took was given in a very brusque manner, as though the tour guide was being put out somehow. General atmosphere of disorganization and lack of professionalism. A fly by the seat of your pants business.
My standard poodle has never looked so good after a groom! Alea was so great with him and paid attention to the details I asked for. All of the staff I've met have been friendly, professional, and so helpful, and they seem to genuinely care for the animals at their facility.
Best pet hotel! We were traveling through for work and couldn't take our pup two of the days so we put her in day boarding here. So clean, inviting and a very upscale looking pet facility. Even has a pool for the pups to swim! If we lived here I would take penny more often!
Mark is an absolute lifesaver and helped us last minute by watching our rabbit for the past week. He was quick to respond and took great care of our little Rutabaga!
Mark took great care of my boys, Tim and Sam for two weeks! They were happy to be home but I can tell they were taken care of very well and they seemed like they had been happy for the whole time they were with Mark. Thank you Mark for caring for my boys and for being flexible with your time to make the visit work!!
Mark was amazing and treated our pets like they were his own. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter!
I met Mark back in NH and he has always taken such good care of Canela. I was super relieved when I relocated to CO and found out he had moved there a few years earlier. He is super responsive and easy to coordinate with. I know Canela will be in good hands and receive exceptional care, structure, and lots of love. Highly recommend!
Mark does a fabulous job taking care of my high-maintenance princess dog. I felt very comfortable being away knowing my pup was in very good hands, taken care of, and loved on! I'd recommend Mark to any of my friends and family looking for pet sitting.
Mark is awesome! Needed a pet sitter last minute and we came across his web page. Did a meet and greet the day before and everything went perfectly from there! We got lots of lovely pictures of our puppy which was very reassuring he was in good hands. We know who to send our pup to if needed in the future! Highly recommend :)
We left our two older dogs with Mark during a long trip, and we're thrilled with the results! Mark not only got them playing with other dogs but also improved their behavior on walks, a change we still see at home. He kept us updated with happy photos and videos, easing our worries. Mark's exceptional care and understanding of dogs is evident. Highly recommend for anyone needing a trustworthy, skilled dog sitter – he's so good, our dogs might start preferring him over us!
Mark watched our Great Dane puppy on short notice for us. Our puppy had tons of fun playing with other dogs and having fun! Mark sent us an update so we knew how our puppy was doing as well. I would recommend Mark to anyone that's looking at doggie daycare/boarding for their dog.
I have used Mark for dog daycare for my puppy and older dog. He has the perfect setup - the dogs can go in and out at their leisure and he has a big yard for them to play in. My work schedule is a little different every day, so I have really appreciated his availability and willingness to be so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Best of all, the pups have gotten to the point that they rush into his yard overjoyed to see him, so I know they must be happy and well taken care of.
Mark is amazing! Made me feel extremely comfortable about someone new coming to my house to take care of my two dogs. Made sure to do a meet and greet and get all the information necessary incase of an emergency. He’s accommodating and trust worthy. If you are delayed in your return home, you can absolutely trust he will make sure you don’t have to worry about your four legged babies. I will use ‘on the fly pet sitting’ anytime I need the assistance and I recommend them to anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy sitter. You will not be disappointed.
This review has been a long time coming. We have been loyal to Calida, Barb and their staff here for over two years now. After having poor boarding experiences in the past with an anxious dog, we were nervous when looking for a new boarder. As my wife and I travel frequently, it’s so comforting to have a reliable place to board our dog and trust she will always be taken good care of!
Over the past 15 years, I have boarded my dogs at Lazy Dog Ranch. The owners are totally invested in my pets' care and socialization. Our border collie was skittish, but soon looked forward to her time at the Ranch. I've never experienced problems or issues and have always been impressed with the care my dogs received.
i have been using the dog boarding and daycare for a few years. over the years i have had many interactions with a lot of the staff most are very friendly people who know my pets by their names and seem to enjoy their company but the elderly women who i think owns the place has always been extremely hostile and rude, i understand people have bad days and this isn’t an easy job plus things happen that can be annoying to deal with but you chose this profession, it’s no reason to be so cruel at a customer. Even when first meeting this lady she had an attitude and has just gotten more bitter. you either need to retire or just tone down the entitlement please.
Today my mom and I brought her dog and my puppy in for nail trimmings. My puppy went first and he has now been bleeding for two hours. We took my moms dog in second and we warned them that he was very nervous and hates having his nails trimmed. The lady told my mom to be quiet, as somehow her explaining that he may be scared would scare the dog. They laid him on the floor and held him down. Two nails in we noticed that he was panicking. By the third nail his eyes were bright red and looked like they were about to pop out. My mom asked them to stop as he was clearly traumatized. The lady moved our dog closer to her / further away from my mom and told my mom to be quiet and that he had to learn. They continued trimming two more nails as my mom was continuing to tell them "Stop! We are done. Give me my dog back!" They would not give him back! We had to physically grab him out of their hands. It was insane! I do not understand how they could treat animals in this way and not care about a dogs psychological or physical well being.
I take two of my dogs and one of my cats here for grooming. My dogs run in and so happy to see her and my cat always leaves so relaxed
Left my dog there for boarding and felt good about her having lots of other dogs and a big yard to play in. When we came back to pick up our dog I received her things and asked where her medication was. At first they didn’t seem to know and then found it. I was told that they never gave her her medication for anxiety even though I had left daily dosing instructions that they apparently didn’t follow. The woman said she didn’t need it. Unfortunately that is a daily med and not optional and it was clearly stated in the paperwork. I asked how she did with the other dogs and they told me she never played with any other dogs. The woman said she had 3- 1 on 1 human times a day which I guess was a walk. I felt so horrible because my dog loves playing with other dogs and generally likes dogs more than people. It leads me to believe she was just in a crate all day and let out 3 times. In the description of boarding it says each dog gets the play yard. The woman told me they had too many dogs and were very busy. Also, my dog smelled so horrible after I got her that I had to bathe her that night. People were friendly enough and my dog was alive and had somewhere to be so that is good. I would have liked her to get her medication and time to play and would prefer a place that could do that in the future.
We love Lazy Dog Ranch! We have two retired racing greyhounds; Grimm, a 7 year old who had 2 homes before us and Puck, a 2 1/2 year old just off the track in April. Puck has had some digestive problems and we have a great vet who has helped us get them under control. This involves giving him herbal supplements throughout the day. When we take them to Lazy Dog on Tuesdays (from 7am-8pm some days!) they give Puck all of his supplements, leave us updates on his condition, and spoil the both of them! We also feed both dogs raw and Lazy Dog has no problems with this and will even feed their diet at the ranch! This is really unique and wonderful in a boarding service! Both of our boys get so excited to head to daycare on Tuesdays, so we know they have a great time! It is like being at home with all of the outside time and attention they get! The staff are knowledgeable, professional, and they do great creating a pack of dogs that do well together. For a greyhound owner, this is especially important because our boys have such thin, sensitive skin that they injure easily. We have never felt they were unsafe at all! The staff are always friendly to us, they treat the dogs so well, and we always feel like the boys had a better day than they would have at home! We won't take Grimm & Puck anywhere else for boarding and daycare.
We have been using Lazy Dog Ranch to board our dogs for many years. Our newest addition, a loving and social black lab spent a week here in March and came home happy and tired. We were worried she might be too playful (being a year old) with older dogs that would not tolerate her well. But when I dropped her off one day for a few hours I overhead the staff deciding which dogs played well together and they grouped them like that for play time. I especially love they get lots of free play time with supervision.
We had our doodle groomed for the first time and Dapper dog did amazing! They did exactly what we wanted and as first timers it was nerve racking but we will definitely going back for her next cut!
My previous experiences were great, despite a bit of rudeness about how my dog was not neutered at the time. Prices were great and my golden had so much fun, I took him there every time I had a competition out of town. Then last week when I dropped him off the employee was so rude, then when she misheard my number, she told me that I cannot go through my life being so softspoken. This is no way to treat a customer, so I will no longer be taking my dog there. Smells weird too.
Ann has been with our family for 2 years now and we couldn’t be happier with the way she cares for our dogs. She is honest, trustworthy and dependable. Both of our dogs love her! She has helped us through the puppy stage with 2 dogs and I never worry about being gone when Ann is scheduled! I highly recommend her for your pet care needs!
Ann is great with our two dogs. We love her and would be lost without her!
Anne is the best! I couldn’t recommend her more!
We had used a number of services before moving to northern Colorado. Nobody comes close to the service Michelle and her team have provided to our family over the past 5+ years. ABOVE & BEYOND is an understatement. From walking our dogs to staying a week+ with our pets in our house and everything in between Michelle has our complete trust in confidence. So much, we book our vacations off her availability because we know our pets have it better with her than when we're home! I can't think of a better person for the job Michelle does!
Michelle is truly the best of the best!! We never worry that our pets, or our home, will not be taken care of exactly the way we care for them. Michelle’s attention to detail, communication and work ethic are amazing and truly go above and beyond. I know our pets love her as much as we do!!
We hired Rocky Mountain Pet Services to take care of our fur-baby Hanna, tend to our koi pond, and water several outdoor plants. We are more than pleased with the care and attention to detail that was given to every task. The line of communication was open and we received updates with pictures every day. If you are looking for an honest, caring pet service company that will step in and attend to your pet needs with passion & gusto, you will not be disappointed with Michelle and her team. They are Number One in my book!
Regrettably, we hired Rocky Mountain Pet Services to check in on our 2 cats while we were out of town. They were hired to water, feed, and change the litter, that's it. We came home to find that our hardwood floors were water-damaged because she decided that our plants needed watering, which is fine, but was not what they were hired to do. When we returned, we noticed a nearby plant had been overwatered heavily. We asked the owner Michelle if she had watered the plant, and she stated that she added one cup of water to the plant every day because it was dropping leaves. Although we appreciate the sentiment, she was not hired to water plants. Michelle claims on her website to have insurance and our wood floors are 100% warped. We have offered to have her back over to view the damage for herself, which she has denied. She originally offered to see the damage herself, but has now backed away - even though it's obvious. I am not sure why you have insurance if you don't plan on using it for instances like this. We are not mad, just concerned that our floors are damaged by someone who is not us, who we trusted to feed our cats.
Michelle is the most caring and attentive pet care giver. She takes her job serious and will go above and beyond your expectations. Once you use her services, you will wonder how you ever lived without her. Rocky Mountain Pet Services is the BEST of the best!!
Michelle has nothing but love for my dogs and cat. She is just an animal lover at heart and will go to the ends of the earth for animals. She makes sure she spends time with my furry friends, spoils them and makes them feel loved. I would recommend Michelle for anyone who needs reliable, loving and affordable pet care!
We have had the privilege of having Michelle care for our two beloved dogs since 2018. She has always gone above and beyond to take the utmost of care for them. We trust her implicitly with their care. We trust her to stay at our home while we are away. Michelle is an outstanding communicator, and thorough in every way. Despite increasing needs with our dogs getting older, Michelle always pays attention to every detail of their care, and any nuances. She is very insightful with animals, and gives them a lot of love and attention with every visit. We are incredibly grateful to have Michelle and her services, and could not recommend her more highly.
Michelle makes leaving our fur baby cat at home EASY! ❤️🏡 …
Thank you Tallon for the 5 star rating!!
If you are looking for a good dog sitter that can handle it all, truly cares about your animals, and is a person that your animals will love and look forward to seeing look no further! My wife and i absolutely love using Mary and her company to watch after our dogs, and let me tell you, it isn't an easy task. we have three dogs ranging from an old lab who has trouble getting up the stairs, to a handicappable pibble, to an energetic lightning bolt of a puppy that enjoys long walks, carrying shoes, and digging holes under the fence. Mary is able to keep them all in line and i think the little devils actually enjoy us going out of town so they can see their friend! our Cat also loves Marry and she does a much better job than my wife and i of not overfeeding the hungry little butt! my wife and i love our animals, and we were always trepidatious about leaving town without them. but the great people at Pets' best friend have made us feel unbelievably confident and at ease when we are away from our little herd.
Mary is reliable, trustworthy and attentive. She is a dog whisperer and really listens to their needs and handles everything. We will be using her again and I puts my mind at ease knowing they are in good hands.
Excellent, reliable service. Mary let's me know how my guinea pigs are doing while I'm away and when I return, the pigs are always happy and healthy. I can't tell you how valuable this service is for someone who has to travel frequently. I can't recommend them enough!
Wonderful experience. Will use in the future and refer any time. My dog enjoyed her company during a recent trip out of state. She even came over to cover for us when the plane delayed.
Mary with Best Friend’s was a great experience. If you need a pet sitting company to watch your pets she is your best option in Greeley Colorado!
Can't recommend enough. I was put at ease from the first consult. BOTH Mary's are great!
