El Rio, California
Highly Experienced (International) Sitter
We were so glad Tina stayed at our home with Finney; it made relaxing on vacation a bit easier. Our home was clean and tidy upon return and I loved getting regular photo updates. Tina is nice and seems to care about all the different animals she has stayed with.

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!

Fun-loving Couple Looking to Bring Joy to Your FUR BABIES!!!
What can’t I say, they were fantastic. It was a pleasure meeting them. They were amazing to our animals, our cats loved them almost as much as they love us. I would love for them to take care of our animals again truly salt of the earth good people. I would highly recommend to any person. I can’t thank them enough…
Coco
El Rio, 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!
Gaby
El Rio, California
Your home and pets will be cared with much love
This was our first time using zeewoi, and Gaby made us feel reassured about leaving our 2 dogs behind to travel. She spent most of her time with them and sent pictures every day. It is clear Gaby loves animals deeply, so we were very happy to know our dogs were not just being looked after, but loved on in our absence. She took the time to get to know their individual personalities and quirks and give the specific type of care and attention needed for each pup. One of our dogs can be shy and insecure and very attached to me, but Gaby earned her trust in a matter of hours. Gaby allowed us to travel without worrying about our dogs, and we would have her sit for us again in the future!
Valerie
El Rio, 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.
Brittany
El Rio, California
traveling mommy/daughter duo that love to play w/ALL types of animals!
Britt was wonderful! Great communication, pups had a blast, and the house was spotless when I got back. Would definitely have her sit again!
Melanie
El Rio, 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
Hari
El Rio, California
Digital nomad who LOVES animals available now for house and pet sitting!
Hari did a great job taking care of my two cats and seems to have made good friends with both of them while I was away -- something that's not always that easy with my kitties. She was also really good at communicating, sending me updates and pix regularly. And best of all, my place looked great when I got back home. Thanks Hari!
Reviews from Dog Owners
Laura
This was our first house/pet sit with @zeewoi and we were extremely pleased! Robert showed up when he said he would, he accommodated our timelines and our dog's scheduled routine. He left our home in excellent shape and we had a very happy, relaxed pup to come home to. It was important to us that Robert meet us via video chat or in person before we left and he went above and beyond. He sent photos of our dog, Cooper, and him throughout the sit and we could tell that Cooper was very happy with Robert. He responded immediately to our texts, giving him updates about our return. Communication is so important for making sure both the sitter and the house owners are confident in one another. Robert is very outgoing and friendly and we have 100% confidence in him to look after our home and our dog when we are away. We look forward to Robert providing another future home sit.
Christina
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Rob
David was a great sitter for our dog! It was just him for this sit. He was very communicative before, during, and after the stay. He visited the apartment before we left to meet our dog and talk with us, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was in good hands. He sent us updates throughout the stay, and left the apartment in great condition. While our dog is on the older side, he can still be a handful at times, but David didn’t seem to have any problems. Would definitely recommend David for any future sit!
Linda
Cristina is simply the best house/pet sitter that we have ever had. She is responsible and dependable and an experienced dog owner. Our Wheaten, Bridie, adores her and misses her when she leaves.
Adrienne
We loved Misty!!!! She was absolutely the most perfect baby sitter for our dog and an amazing short term tenant at our house. Not only did she keep the house clean but she even washed everything she used before we got home. We even got a couple gifts from her. She is such a sweet human, kept in contact with us while we were gone and sent videos of the hikes and walks they went on. I would 100% ask her to stay at our house again
Megan
Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!
Ann
Susan and Jim were amazing sitters for my 2 boys whilst I went to Portugal to play golf. Communication we had prior to the sit was excellent, and we were able to discuss the dogs in detail. They arrived the day before I was due to leave so we were able to have a good handover. They really looked after the dogs well, and my house was immaculate when I returned. I can't recommend them highly enough, just wished they lived in the UK so I could use them on a regular basis. Thank you Susan and Jim xx
Mark
Nicole and Gabriel were excellent house sitters and we would highly recommend them to anyone. Our dog absolutely loved them and she was spoilt rotten. The house, pool and yard were kept clean and well looked after. On a personal note we also found both of them interesting and great conversationists.
Cynthia
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
Linda
Christina handled Bridie's first-ever time without us perfectly. We returned after 5 days to a happy, well-cared for and well-exercised pup --- and an emaculate house. Christina knows dogs and helped us with a few Bridie issues. We got photos and some updates while away. She was flexible and very sensitive to all of our needs. Chrisrina is the best sitter that we have ever had.

We love Inglis Pet Hotel! They have demonstrated a whole new level of care for our fur baby. It is so nice to be able to know we don't have to worry. I highly recommend Inglis, whether for a few hours, overnight, or a week, this is the place for your pet!
best place to leave your doggies. a bit pricey but nothing but the best for my babies. this is the 2nd time using this place. My dogs stayed 5 days this time. they were healthy and happy when we picked them up.
This place was perfect for our dog Nas. He would get anxious at other places around town but at Inglis he is always excited to go. They take great care of our pup there!
My Shiba Inu loved staying here! Was a slow time of year and she was upgraded to a beautiful room! Wonderful staff even sent me photos of my dog enjoying her stay! Would recommend to any person who loves their dogs but must leave them in someone else's care!
I have an older rescue dog that I adopted during the pandemic. She is very high strung and I didn't realize how clingy and full of anxiety she was until things started to open up again and I tried to leave her. I've tried a few kennels and day cares...and I am so glad I finally found the Inglis Pet Hotel! The staff is so easy to work with...and are so good with her! In the past year she has stayed with them for day care numerous times and also overnight boarding for longer trips. I feel very fortunate to have found them - they have made leaving her more comfortable for me - knowing she is in good hands!!
Very well run, my dogs always come home clean and happy. The staff are happy and helpful. You can tell they enjoy working with dogs. I've had my 2 beagle boys here three times since 5/2019 and definitely will continue to use and recommend this kennel. This morning they washed my dogs' blankets before I picked up my dogs so I didn't have to do that when I got home.
Can't say enough about the staff at Inglis PH! I have housed my dogs there on several occasions from 1-6 days. They are always obliging and welcoming to me and my rambunctious lab (RED)! The prices are very affordable. The site is secured (alarms, video, fences). Dogs are not locked up inside all day either.. As every experienced pet owner should know.. You should always plan on grooming your dog after a kennel stay. Inglis has great grooming prices as well! I have recommended many family members and friends who have also had great experiences! Top knotch all the way around!
The are angels here. My dog with me every day n even goes work with me. I had 10 day trip and have not been away from my dog for that long. He hasn't done good at previous daycare. He absolutely loves it here and did so well. They really care about your fur babies. Worth every pennie.
Best place to train your dog the staff is so friendly and really did a good job training cleopatra I highly recommend this place and also to have your dog enjoy the hotel if you need to leave it for couple days
We've used this kennel many time the past 4 years and each time they have been wonderful to our dogs. Our pets are always happy to see the staff and they're not stressed when we return. Prices are reasonable and they offer a variety of different boarding options.

My big Baby sometimes has trouble with other dogs and also gets irritable in the heat. We travel and were at a loss what to do with her when we travel. Well Dioji of Oxnard solved that! Now Baby gets her own private suite, private playtime and has lots of fun playing with the staff! They also send a report card with photos every day!! We call it camp for her! Thank goodness we found this place!
Our Luz loves coming to Dioji in Oxnard for a full day of fun with all the great staff. She especially loves swimming in the bone shaped pool, hanging out and napping on all the different play structures. Their selection of treats is also great! We love taking advantage of the freebies offered with the purchase of daycare packages. Definitely recommend Dioji in Oxnard, all of the staff are friendly and attentive. We appreciate the daily updates on behavior and look forward to the pictures posted to her report card.
We first started bringing our pup Maverick to Dioji after moving to the area earlier this year, and just keep coming back. The facility is clean and well-maintained, and the staff are absolutely wonderful. They’re all so kind, and being dog lovers themselves there’s never a doubt Maverick is getting the best care when he’s there for the day. It’s the highlight of my day when I receive email “report cards” at work with fun photos of him enjoying the pool and playing with his dog buddies. And he comes home exhausted! I mean… doesn’t that smile speak for itself? Bring your pup to Dioji, you won’t regret it! 🐶 Maverick approves this message 🐾
Great place for daycare and overnight boarding. I really appreciate that the staff will communicate with me when they see any potential problems(ex a rash they noticed). Everyone is always super friendly and we always feel safe leaving the girls for daycare and boarding. They have a pool which my lab of course loves and we get report cards at the end of the day with pictures of your pups which I always look forward to. I appreciate the transparency with having “windows” you can check on your pup while they are on the “playground”. Highly recommend. Thank you to all the staff, we appreciate you!
We love the Dioji and staff because they are so nice. They great Sparky by name and are always smiling. They love and care about each dog. I love the report cards in the pictures. They send when I leave Sparky there for boarding. We will never go anywhere else.
my pup loves it here ! He’s always excited to see his friends and also make new ones :) Dioji is very clean and has amazing staff that adore every pup that comes thru their doors 🤗 …
Mr. Todd’s family here! He has been coming to Dioji since they open in Oxnard! He absolutely loves coming to daycare! He jumps and howls for joy when he sees us getting his bags ready! Once in the car he knows he is coming for a day of fun! He definitely looks forward to all his friends at Dioji oxnard ! Y’all make him feel so loved during the day or when he spends the night!
Cash has been going to Dioji Oxnard since day 1 of opening! We love that he’s known by name by the staff and they take such good care of him when he stays for daycare and boarding! Wouldn’t leave him anywhere else but here. Highly recommend this resort!
Skilled, knowledgeable, kind, efficient, wonderful dog and people centered employees! I have never been to any soggy day care of boarding like Dioji of Oxnard— highly Recommend! Look How happy!
My Harry Poppins (goldendoodle) has been going to Dioji for about 6 months now both for day care and boarding (and a bath). I have had nothing but excellent service. The facility is so clean. Harry is not a fan of riding in the car, but when he realizes where he is going his tail wags and he jumps out of the car and heads for the front door. He is greeted by the staff by name and is aways willing to head back for fun! I have spied on him a couple of times while playing and the staff is so loving and caring. I know he is in great hands. When I pick him up they always tell me who he played with for the day and how much of his lunch he ate, or did not eat. They are professional, kind and loving to all dogs and their owners. I am a first time dog owner and have a few questions from time to time which they are happy to answer. I consider myself lucky to have found such a great place for pup!

Courtney could not have been more amazing! She was great with our Aussie while we were away for a wedding. She took her on mile long walks twice a day, checked in through her company’s portal so we could see pictures and a map of their walk, we felt so comfortable having her take care of our dog while we were on vacation. We will definitely be hiring Courtney on our next trip, we trust her completely!
I am so happy to have started my dog walking with Dogs Walk Plus. My experience with Courtney has only been reliable and professional. The "report cards" for each walk are great and it's easy to tell each walk is handled with care for your beloved pet. My dog is timid and every walker has taken the effort to accommodate my pups unique personality. Would recommend Dogs Walk Plus to anyone!
I have been using Dogs Walk Plus for almost a year now & have nothing but positive experiences! I love that Courtney knows how to play & give attention to our dogs but also gives us tips on how we can improve walks & commands with our Aussie Mia. I feel comfortable with Courtney going into our home since with don’t have a side gate & closing everything up before she leaves.Prices for services are great & service is two thumbs up. If you’re looking for a dog walker or someone to stop by to check in your fur baby while you’re working, etc. Dogs Walk Plus is it!
I have used Courtney and Dog Walks Plus for all 5 of my dogs. She is very capable of working and handling dogs of all temperaments. I have one dog who is high energy and vocal, he barks a lot, and she handles him perfectly! Courtney is very trustworthy and reliable. I feel very comfortable with her coming to my home, and exercising my dogs, and leaving my home secure when she is finished. On top of being great with dogs, reliable and trustworthy, Courtney always shows up with a smile on her face! I highly recommend Dog Walks Plus!
Excellent company providing quality service. Great personnel, total trust in taking care of my dog. They are super flexible and willing to work with you to find best options for you and pet.
Courtney has been incredible! She has taken such good care of Bosco and has been very flexible and reliable when I get stuck at work. She has a great way with dogs as Bosco is always excited to see her. Her services are unique and so useful especially for energetic dogs. The service you get for the price along with the peace of mind knowing you can trust her cant be beat! I highly recommend Courtney and thank her for all her help!
For: Courtney Thank you note for your dog walking assistance. You are knowledgeable, thoughtful and professional in your work, and a pleasure for me to have been able have your dog help when I really needed it. I learned a lot and both my dogs now have learned to play on the beach with me and come when I call them too. JOY!
Courtney is absolutely the best. The way she takes care of our three pups is amazing. She’s highly reliable, very kind, and obviously loves animals. I couldn’t possibly recommend her more!
Courtney is very professional, very caring and took excellent care of my dog Kayla. Kayla is a Boston terrier and loved courtney. I would recommend her services to anyone. I would not trust just anyone with my Kayla.But she took very good care of her and gave her the exercise that she needed and the loving. From Glenda Sullivan and Kayla
Dogs Walk Plus is an amazing service provider. Their services are fairly priced. I needed at home service on short notice and in Ventura and they accommodated me. Their online client portal is easy to use. Courtney took very good care of my cats while I was away, which included pictures. She even cleaned up after my cats when they made a mess. If I could give more stars, I would.

We love Barb and all the staff at Laughing Dog Inn. Our sweet, crazy, fun loving Aussie has a hard time in new situations. The staff understood her needs and gave her love and support while she learned to have fun when her mom and dad were away. Not all pups are easy, so it's nice to have a loving place they will be cared for and well looked after. We are thrilled to give them the 5 stars they deserve.
And good times and bad, Laughing dog inn has been there for us for our pets. They take extremely good care of your pet, if Something Happens and your pet needs medical attention, they are very diligently attend to it. Most of the time though, it’s all playtime and an excellent experience for my Ziggy! Ziggy gets extremely excited when we get close to dropping him off there, we call it going away to camp for a couple of days or however we have to leave our pets. The staff is easy to accommodate special requests to make him comfortable. Thank you for being there for us all the time! Also! They will post photos on their Facebook site or send them to you by text message if you request!
We have had wonderful experiences with Laughing Dog Inn. We have done their Puppy 101 and daycare to date and love all of the staff with whom we’ve worked. They go above and beyond. I love that they send a photos or videos of our puppy playing and pair her up with similar dogs and puppies. The setup with different environments has been great and the owners and trainers are always available. Updated on 3/3/23: I highly recommend the boarding option as well. Our girl stayed 11 days and came home happy and calm. Special thanks to everyone and to Paige for the adolescent dog training so far.
Barb is absolutely amazing. We did a puppy 1 class with our new puppy and learned tons. We rescued a second husky 3 weeks ago and have been applying the lessons we learned in the puppy 1 class. However, we live in an apartment and take them to dog parks and out for walks as much as possible, but it just wasn't enough. We took them to laughing dog inn for the doggy day care and they had the most amazing day. Our puppers have been sleeping solid after their dinner. I've never seen them sleep so sound and with smiles on their faces. I can't say enough good things about Barb and the laughing dog inn. We thank you, and the puppers can't wait to come back!
Barb and the Laughing Dog Inn has been the best thing to happen to me and my little boy Gus! He knows when we are on the way and is jumping out of the car when we get there. I know hes in good hands when hes stays. So glad I found Barb!
Ziggy's (Pictured on the right) first camping experience. He was more intent on staying than he was to get into the car to go home...! He'll be back next weekend to do it again... GREAT staff! GREAT attitude! GREAT location! GREAT facility! ...
We brought our rescue pups to Laughing Inn - first time they were away from us since November, and due to COVID, they were not around very many people or other dogs. So we were a little nervous leaving them for the first time. The staff even sent me a text telling me about their day So we were put at ease right away. The owner, Barb, is a hands on owner of the facility; very knowledgeable and friendly. I will continue to leave my dogs at Laughing Inn whenever we go someplace, as I told me friends, heck I would stay there!!
I always appreciate all the wonderful people at Laughing Dog Inn. They’ve been a huge help in socializing my pandemic pup, and they always welcome her as a loved individual. She comes home tired from a day of playing with all her friends, and I know she’s safe and cared for the whole time. I love the training classes and the daycare, and I really love that the staff know and love each dog so well. These are genuine dog people in the very best sense.
We recently boarded our six month old puppy at Laughing Dog Inn and it was the best experience ever. After having dogs for years and going through many different ways of boarding, Barb and her team make the process so easy. Not only can you book online, but you get text message updates during the day. The drop off and pick up process is so easy, I was delighted to not have to fill out pages of paperwork. We are thrilled that our puppy will be able to be at Laughing Dog Inn for many years to come!
Barb and staff at the laughing dog inn are still amazing. We moved out of the area almost 2 years ago but needed to travel for a day trip past them for business. We left our 2 puppers with them for the day and they had so much fun just like when they went on a weekly basis back when we lived in the area. We are happy that the laughing dog inn is surviving this pandemic and highly recommend them to help socialize, manage, and keep your pup's happy. Thank you Barb!
