Highly trustworthy, competent, non-smoking animal lover.
Jinnie took great care of our cat Suki and they became firm friends during her stay. Jinnie was communicative and organised prior to the visit which helped. She was friendly and we had some lovely chats when we returned home.

Robin was as wonderful as all the other reviews have covered. She was very communicative and worked very hard to make sure our sulky dog ate, which we really appreciated. Both our dog and our cat immediately warmed to her and decided she was a friend, which I think is always a great judge of character!

Lisa was a total rockstar, taking over for the last leg of our multi-month sitter extravaganza. She was super organized, showered the pets with love, and left the house looking better than it did when we first moved in. Highly recommend, and would love to have her back any time. Thanks Lisa!

Sabrina was very attentive to our fur babies. She sent regular pictures and checked in about what was normal and what was not for our old man cat. Highly recommend them! Thank you so much!

Anjali was amazing. She provided me updates everyday and gave lots of love to my pup. She is a great communicator and very easy to work with. Most importantly, my pup loved her!! I came home to a clean apartment and happy dog - couldn’t be happier.

Paul was friendly and kind and we were lucky to have him spend the weekend with Peanut! He arrived prior to us leaving so that we could show him around and introduce him to Peanut. He had read through all of our care instructions and it was clear he takes great pride in caring for pets and doing what is best for them. We’d love to have him back!

John was amazing with Chester - took great care of him and kept me updated often as to how he was doing. He took me to the airport and collected me when I returned. What more could you want. The perfect sitter!

Erica was an absolute pleasure! She was incredibly attentive and sent updates and photos of Disco throughout they day. She left my place clean and better than I found it and Disco was acting normal and calm when I returned…a sign of a great sitter! This was my first sitter through Trust House Sitters and I put up the listing on short notice and am so glad I chose Erica :)

Pets were happy and well cared for. House was very clean. We got updates daily. Very nice couple. I would highly recommend
Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
From her promptness to schedule a pre-sit call to her truly thorough tidying of our house, Stella was an amazing housesitter from start to finish!! She read all the info we put together ahead of time, and asked for clarification on just a few things which made us confident that the pup and the house were in good shape :) Stella was really gracious when we admitted to not having a coffee pot, and handling things calmly when there was an incident with street parking. Maybe most importantly though our dog Luke was calm when we came home. I think if future sitters are clear in their expectations around frequency of communication/photos and the dogs needs then Stella is the perfect person to exceed your expectations!
Janet and Bob were great to our pups and our home! They were our first sitters so we weren’t really sure what we were getting into, but they made it an awesome experience! They are coming back to stay with our dogs again in August. Definitely trust them with your fur babies!! 🐾🐶
Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!
Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend. Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay. It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail. She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures. I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it. I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!

I want to thank CountrySide Kennel for all they did for my family when we had a medical emergency. Their kindness was unprecedented, as they took in our four dogs (one a puppy) and our cat at the last minute. They were so helpful and understanding and went way above and beyond to accommodate us. They kept us updated on my pets welfare. They were so compassionate with our situation and took AMAZING care of my pets. I highly recommend CountrySide Kennel, the kennel was immaculate and the dogs extremely well cared for!! 5 + stars
Nick and everyone else at CountrySide were great. My dog Rocky had his own large area and got a ton of outdoor time and personal attention from the staff, I know he will be excited the next time he gets dropped off. He even got a free bath because of the length of his stay. Their prices are great and I will definitely go to them from now on
Oscar had such a great time at Countryside. They were very accommodating with diet and grooming. They recognized that he has a ritchy rear end and what doggie doesn’t? He had a bath and a nail trim with Dremel and he looks so handsome. I really can’t recommend this boarding/daycare highly enough. Nick and Deborah truly love four legged furry friends and it shows.
Our boy Maxx stayed for 6 days. The staff is excellent and the cost is affordable. If the need arises again, they will be our first choice for boarding. He got a bath while there too.
First time leaving my girls, I was a bit nervous. But they all seemed to have done well. Everyone working there is extremely nice, when I pulled in there was someone in the yard playing ball with one of the boarders. Would definitely recommend and will use them again!
This is a nice facility out in the country (hence the name). Prior to leaving our dog here I went and took a tour. The owner, Nick, seemed very knowledgeable and has invested in quality kennels. He seems to give each dog a lot of personal attention. I was anxious about leaving our 2 year old German Shepherd, but when we picked up he seemed happy and was in great shape.
Friendly & accommodating nice facility. Our dogs have no problem being kenneled at Countryside & we love knowing they are well cared for
I have a 6 year old, high energy, high anxiety Australian shepherd so I'm often worried where I board her at. Countryside boarding was amazing! I trusted them with my baby, got regular picture updates, and she even got a complimentary bath at the end of her week stay. They were very accommodating with all of my dogs quirks and anxiety triggers. I really felt the owner and team were compassionate and cared a lot about the wellbeing of the animals and weren't just looking to make money doing the bare minimum like some boarding facilities. The facility was very very clean and they allowed tours of the whole place before hand. They are just starting out and there isn't many reviews but don't let that deter you, I can't recommend them enough!
Countryside watches over our little old (14) lady with care and compassion. We have total confidence in their care when we need to leave her
Great kennel. They took really good care of my two dogs while I was away for Thanksgiving. The people were so nice and you could just tell they care for the animals.
My little puppies love it here!! They have been to Little Ponderosa the past 3 days, the past two days, they run to the front door! They do tours on Monday/Tuesday too! My favorite part of the day now is getting pictures of my little babies playing 😍 …
They are extremely pet oriented here. Our dogs love going here and the prices are reasonable for what you get. Oh, and our dogs have their first album coming out soon!
We have boarded our Bongo at Little Ponderosa for several nights, as well as taken him for Doggie Daycare on a few occasions. Bongo has gotten his nails trimmed there twice as well. He is so excited to see his human and dog friends there. I love the messages and pictures the staff sends us to let us know our pup is doing fine and having fun. Great staff and clean facility!
Could not have any better place for our Brandi to visit. Perfect for all of your pets needs. Boarding, Daycare and not to mention Annette's training! Brandi also loves her baths and nail treatments!
This is the BEST kennel we have ever used and we are so grateful to have found them!!! We have owned multiple Australian Cattle Dogs, and our current dog Bailey can be a handful. We struggled for several years trying to find a kennel that would love Bailey and understand the nature of this breed. Multiple kennels didn't work out. But from the get go, the team at the Ponderosa has not only made it work, but they love our dog Bailey, they play with him regularly (he needs lots of exercise), they send us photos, and he is happy and healthy when we pick him up! The Ponderosa is great with all dogs, they adapt their services to meet the needs to insure the best care possible. Each dog has lots of room to play, with and indoor/outdoor kennel and play yards. We are so grateful for the Ponderosa -- to finally have peace of mind knowing our special needs dog is safe and happy. Thank you so much to the owners and staff. We love you guys!
Our dog Lucy goes to daycare and really comes home well exercised . All the staff have been extremely nice. They often send pictures of Lucy playing with her friends. We have never boarded but most of our neighbors have and highly recommend. The facility is clean and they offer many additional services. Would definitely recommend Little Ponderosa.
Super passionate caring hard working individuals that love your dog just as much as you do. They send pictures to you to ease your worries and love what they do. Highly recommend! Can I check myself in?!
We have bringing our dog to Little Ponderosa for over a year now and they have loved going there. We can tell because everytime we pull in the driveway she gets excited and can't wait to get inside. The staff is so sweet and always love on our girl. I love getting the pictures every day - when you are away and see other dogs it makes you so sad ...then you get a pic of your pup having a ball and it makes you smile. Thanks Little Ponderosa Pet Resort
We have been bringing our year old Lab rescue to Little Ponderosa for daycare. The staff is wonderful and it's easy to see that they enjoy their job and are great with the dogs. Additionally, it's the cleanest kennel I've ever been in. Our boy is always happy from a day of play there.
Our dog, Sunny, has stayed many times at Little Ponderosa over the last 3 years. She loves playing with the other dogs and her favorite people there. We can do what we need to do, travel as needed and never worry about her care. Thank you Little Ponderosa for taking such good care of our fur baby!
