Dog Sitters in Myakka City

Beware! I would give this place zero stars if it was an option. this place is extremely filthy, barely any AC for the dogs and cats. This is not a resort. I believe these people are ripping people off, and not promising what you're paying for. They can be passive aggressive and extremely rude if your point out anything health hazardous to the well being of the animals. Also witnessed the owners (husband and wife) being passive aggressive and verbally abusive towards the two female employees. if they do that to their employees than i wonder how they "actually treat" your pets. I had made a post before, "somehow" they took it down. Will keep reporting this place till something is done or they are "retired "

We board our dog and two cats at Just 4 Paws for every vacation we take. The staff and owners are extremely reliable, always available, and very pleasant people. Great value and many add on options for dogs! We had extra walks and a bath for ours - she came back smelling great and looking super happy. Our cats love to look out the windows from the tops of the cat trees and hardly want to leave. Highly recommend!

We had our two cats boarded for an exceptionally long time because of our move and we couldn't have been happier with our experience with Just 4 Paws. They clearly loved and cared for our cats like they were their own. We visited often, and each time we came we were met with welcoming smiles. Our cats had an actual room of their own with toys and cat trees looking over a beautiful lake. The room was always super clean and you could tell the cats loved them too because every time they saw their faces the cats lit up knowing they were going to get cuddles and let out to run around. Their rates were exceptionally good too! I will always recommend and sing the praises for Just 4 Paws! Thank you for taking such great care of our cats. Brian and Charli

Just 4 Paws is the best! The owners are very friendly and accommodating. They have great air conditioned garden rooms with grassy play and potty areas. We have used this pet resort many times and our dogs Lucy and Greta always enjoy going here. We also know our fur babies will be well taken care of here... We actually have them booked for an upcoming getaway! Greta our dachshund even has a pack of doxies to play with when she visits.

Our two dogs have been guests at Just 4 Paws several times over the past 2.5 yrs. When we pull up the lane, Ringo and Pixie just start going crazy with anticipation. How many times do dogs actually love to go to the kennel? Ours do. They are able to have a spa room together where it is climate controlled and they have their own yard. we have also used the junior suites for them which they loved equally. Maya and Marcus treat our babies like two of their own. We have boarded them for long weekends as well as several weeks duration. Each time the kids have come home happy and healthy. We have peace of mind while we are travelling knowing the kids are well cared for.

The folks that own and run this boarding place are really nice, and it is obvious that they care very much about the animals housed there. As well, you can pay a little extra for your animal to have additional one on one play time, which is a nice touch. The only drawbacks were their cash only policy, and the cat enclosure room smelt extremely strongly of cat spray. . . But perhaps that's normal. Plus their cat enclosure area is lots of soft furnishing items and my cat didn't seem to mind the smell.

Friendliest staff and so accommodating. Best pet resort in Sarasota! I’ve been to several different places and this is by far the best. It’s so nice to know that my little Rambunctious pup is in good hands when I am away! Thank you for taking care of my Sam!

I love this pet resort!! We bring our dog rocky here and the owners take such good care of him. They take him for walks, make sure he is fed and play with him. When rocky comes home he is so tired from a fun filled day. The owners are such good caring people, at the drop of a dime they are willing to take rocky. My work schedule can be tough sometimes so it's good to know that Just 4 Paws is always there for us. Thank you for the impeccable care of our pet!!!

My dog went to this place during Thanksgiving holidays and I felt very cheated. He spent 4 nights and they charged me like it was 5 nights which is very annoying and not fair. Also they are telling in the website that is a luxury pet resort and it is very very dirty. My dog came back home so dirty and his bed was disgusting, smelling really bad. I had to pay $265 per 4 nights that is $66 per day, when most of the other places that look so much better and are much cleaner are charging between $43 and $46 per day. I don’t trust all the other reviews. I think that they are not real. This is my experience and I hope can help others to choose better the place for their dogs.

Our dog Henry loved his stay and just 4 paws! Very accommodating and caring owners who live onsite overseeing our dogs every need, will definitely be using here again! So nice to have finally found somewhere we can trust for our dog. Thank you both so much.

We recently left our fur baby, Leo, with Walter & Jillian for 12 days while we left for our honeymoon. We’ve never left Leo for this long, let alone had him stay at someone else’s house. We were nervous of course. However, the first day we met Walter & Jillian we knew he would be in great care. Walter & Jillian treated Leo as their own. They took such great care for him. We had no worries on our trip and I genuinely believe Leo had the time of his life with them. They sent us photos throughout the stay and Leo had the biggest smile on his face. We are so happy that we found Fetch! Leo is so happy too. 😊

I cannot speak highly enough of Fetch! Pet Care of Sarasota and their exceptional cat sitter, Richard. We recently had to leave town for a week-long trip to Alabama and were fortunate enough to hire Richard through Fetch! to take care of our beloved fur baby, Gunner. From the moment Richard stepped into our home, we knew Gunner was in great hands. Richard's passion for animals was evident as he greeted Gunner with genuine warmth and affection. It was heartwarming to see how quickly Gunner took to him. Throughout our vacation, Richard went above and beyond to ensure Gunner's happiness and well-being. Richard not only tended to Gunner's basic needs but also made sure to engage him in playtime with an assortment of toys. It was evident that Richard's interactions with Gunner were filled with love and enthusiasm, which meant the world to us as devoted pet parents. In addition to his care for Gunner, Richard demonstrated an incredible level of thoughtfulness by vacuuming the house as needed. Returning from our trip to a clean and tidy home was an unexpected delight! Moreover, Richard even assisted with taking out the trash on trash day, which we found incredibly considerate. Fetch! Pet Care of Sarasota proved to be a reliable and professional company to work with. The ease of booking their services, coupled with the seamless communication throughout the process, was impressive. Richard's dedication, attention to detail, and sincere love for animals truly set him apart as an exceptional cat sitter. We can't thank him enough for the peace of mind he provided while we were away. Gunner seemed content and happy upon our return, and that's all we could have asked for. Without a doubt, we highly recommend Fetch! Pet Care of Sarasota and specifically Richard as a cat sitter to anyone in need of top-notch pet care services. They exceeded our expectations, and we will undoubtedly be reaching out to them for all our future pet care needs. Thank you, Richard, and Fetch! Pet Care, for giving us a worry-free vacation and taking such amazing care of Gunner. Your service deserves more than five stars!

Scheduling via the app was really convenient, and it was great to receive all the reassuring feedback, with the checklist and photos, after each home visit. The owner Walter was friendly and helpful and our cat sitter Lori was very attentive and conscientious in taking care of our senior kitty. We would confidently recommend Fetch! of Sarasota to anyone in the area looking for high-quality pet care!

After having some bad experiences with Rover, I decided to try Fetch Pet Care. They are everything Rover falls short of. Fetch Pet Care is reliable, with many options on how they can care for your dog, awesome online scheduling tool, flexible cancellations, very responsive customer service from all the sitters and the owner, easy payment and much more. They have all their bases covered and gained my full confidence from the first interaction! I was losing faith in finding good pet care in Sarasota, until I found Fetch!

Walter and his crew are amazing. Our dog has done overnights a few times and I often wonder if our pup is sad to see us come get him. There is great communication and care throughout the entire stay. So thankful for this great company, highly recommend this company and their services!

Our Bailee was so well taken care of and loved Walter & Jillian. She has anxiety when we have left her in the past to travel, but she adjusted very well. Walter kept us posted and sent pictures on how she was doing.

Our Chi needed a sitter so we could enjoy a visit to Cool Today Park. This was a new experience for her. Tammie came the night before and spent time getting to know her and allowing our sweet girl to feel more comfortable. We were able to enjoy our day knowing she was well cared for.Reasonable rates. great communication. Would definitely use again!"

Fetch! Pet Care Sarasota is awesome! Our cat sitter not only fed our cats and cleaned their litterbox, he also provided mental stimulation and physical exercise each day. Lots of photos were taken and really made us feel comfortable while we were away. I would HIGHLY reccomend!!!

I have used Fetch Pet Care for over 3 years and have never been disappointed with the care provided. Most recently, Tammie and Sara provided extended coverage sending daily updates and pictures of my feline “children “. They took care to ensure our home was clean of the kitty litter which the cats tend to track around. They provided additional services such as watering our plants and setting out the garbage as we left a few days before. They even asked if they should be getting the mail though we had stopped it. It’s a comfortable feeling knowing we can leave and our loved ones are being well taken care of.

My dogs both have special needs, one has tons of allergies and the other one has hip dysplasia and arthritis. Walt and Jillian are really good at following all the medicine and individualized feeding instructions both of my dogs have, and its a lot! Plus they have a very dog friendly home and they spoil my dogs with love while they are boarded there.

Our pups have been in the care of Walk This Way since 2020 and we couldn't be happier. We signed up with WTW due their team members and their love for pets. Our dogs love them, they are always timely, their communication is fantastic, they cater to individual pet's needs, we trust the team in our home and as a bonus they have a scheduling/billing system that's easy to use. We highly recommend Walk This Way.

Walk This Way Pet Services is awesome! I highly recommend them after using their services during our most recent vacation. My dog is apprehensive with strangers and Dan and Janet were patient and took the time to make sure he felt comfortable around them. The photos and updates are wonderful and really put my mind at ease! My kitty enjoyed their visits and I will definitely use their services again. A++++!!!

Walk This Way has taken such great care of my little old lady cat. We just moved to the area and I was so worried that I wouldn’t be able to find someone that would make me feel comfortable leaving her. They have far exceeded my expectations. They take pictures of her and send me a write up of how she’s doing. I truly can’t express how wonderful they are. I feel so blessed to have found them.

I’ve used Walk this Way for a year now to walk my three dogs. I am very satisfied with their walkers.They relate well to my pets and are responsive to their needs. They definitely enjoy each dog. It is a delight to count on them. The pups are contented also.

We spent two months this past January and February in Sarasota and drove down with our dog Logan, a 10 year old yellow lab. To help us explore the area, we selected Walk This Way Dog Sitters to walk Logan and give him some good exercise while we enjoyed the benefits of the Sarasota area.We chose Janet based on her excellent reviews and we were extremely pleased with her service. She and Dan came over to meet and great us and say hi to Logan. Logan walked mostly with Dan who really seemed to enjoy our dog and treated him like he was his own. He also had walks with Janet and Patty. All were super good with him. They run a very professional and friendly service. They were always on time and tried to accommodate to our varying schedule. We always got a brief note and photo after his walk. Logan misses them all. Thanks for taking such good care of him!

Anna is an absolute angel! She is so amazing with all our animals. She has a lot of knowledge with caring for animals. My dog Bailey absolutely LOVES her! She listens to what the animal needs and wants and if the animal is nervous or scared. Like my dog can be scared around other dogs and she will avoid these other animals during walks. I have a cat as well who is very timid and Anna has managed to get my cat to be her bff as well! My cat even let her hold her!!! Crazy!! We love Anna🩷 love, Bailey, salem and Heather 🥹🩷

We recently used Walk This Way pet sitting service to care for our dog Lilly while we went on vacation. Janet and Dan took very good care of our Lilly, playing fetch with her favorite toy, feeding her the special food mix we prepared for her and even scratching her back and belly on their visits. We were updated with the feeding times, activities, and also received pictures during each visit on their easy to use website portal. Janet and Dan were very professional and were a pleasure to work with which made us feel at ease during our vacation. I would definitely recommend using Walk This Way pet services for your pet sitting needs.

I had a fantastic experience with Walk This Way pet sitting. I recently moved to Sarasota and shortly after moving, I had to leave town unexpectedly due to a family emergency and needed care for my 2 cats. I chose Walk This Way based on the positive reviews and am very happy with my choice. Janet was able to do the meet and greet on short notice and was very flexible as I was unsure about the timing of my trip. Due to COVID-19, I ended up being stuck out of town for 7 weeks, way longer than I had expected and by far the longest I have ever left my cats. I felt terribly about being away so long but it was a comfort that I could tell they were being well taken care of. Both Amanda and Janet were very communicative, flexible and attentive. They were helpful with coming up with ideas to address my cats seeming bored as they were home alone for longer and longer. I enjoyed the daily updates and photos from Amanda, and Janet checked up on my cats a few times during my time away, too. One of my cats is extremely shy with new people and she warmed up to Amanda within the first week. Amanda was also helpful with some requests unrelated to cat care that I had due to unexpectedly being away so long. Janet also bought more food for my cats since it ran out since I was away longer than expected. When I returned home, Amanda had left printed photos of my cats. I was very happy with how well Amanda and Janet took care of my cats and I would highly recommend Walk This Way pet sitting!

Janet has been walking and sitting for my puppy for several months. She is professional, dependable, and caring. I fully trust her with the care of my pup and in my home. She kindly accommodates us even on short notice (which we are always very thankful for)! Janet always sends me sweet photos and videos of my pup when I am at work and it gives me such great joy to know that she is being well taken care of. I would absolutely give her my highest recommendation and am so grateful that I found her!

Best dog walkers ever! My husband and I both had unexpected health issues and were unable to walk our very energetic mini golden and Walk This Way was able to help us out on short notice. Their client portal makes it easy to communicate any scheduling concerns and everyone was so pleasant to work with. 🐾 …

We’ve been bringing our dogs to Animal House for over 5 years now and we love it! The staff are friendly and attentive and I am always confident that Clark will be well cared for. When we take him there, we open the back of the car and he RUNS to the entrance. He plays hard and gets lots of love. While he is always glad to see us when we pick him up, I think he secretly wishes he could live there! 😂

Been boarding our two dogs here for a while now. The staff and owner are so nice and caring. During a tropical storm, our house flooded and we had to board our animals here for five weeks. And during the process of rebuilding, it was a great relief to know our animals were at a place where they are loved and taken care of. I'm very grateful for Animal House and the care they give.

Animal House is fantastic! Our dogs can’t wait to go, they literally run us to their door in excitement! The team is always so welcoming, warm and reliable. All of our neighbors use Animal House too! We could not be happier! It is such a gift to travel and know your dogs are having a wonderful vacation too! Thank you for all that you do!

We’ve been taking our lab to Animal House for years whenever we go away on a trip. The owners and staff are the nicest. Our dog is always excited when we drop her off and then sleeps for days when we bring her home. My parents and my parents in law have also started using them for their tiny dogs. With the multiple pods, each with free access to their own outdoor pods, we know dogs are always paired appropriately based on size and temperament and never cooped up in a cage while we’re gone. This is a business to support! Maggie May gives her vote of approval!

This is hands down the best daycare experience I’ve had in my 3 years with my Jack Russell Terrier. Their hours make it convenient for someone with a teachers schedule to drop off their pup to be in a safe unconfined setting with similar size/temperament dogs all day. Their price is unbeatable!! I cannot believe they’re not completely booked more - I’m thankful for it while it lasts!

My 1.5 year old pup is afraid of everybody and everything. However, She loves coming to day care or boarding here. When I turn down the driveway she starts crying to get out of the car. She jumps into the arms of the caregivers. This is a wonderful place for her!

My dogs have been going there since they been puppies and LOVE IT THERE! the team is very friendly. The most important thing is the way my dogs react to them and getting there, which is happiness and zoomies and that’s how I know they been treated right! Which is the main concern for any dog parent ❤️

Samson loves going to Animal House for doggy day care, and he gets to ride the doggie bus home after! He's a tired boy when he comes home!

My dogs always run to the door so fast I have to drop their leashes!! When I leave them to board, I have total peace of mind.. the whole team are amazing and loving to my three dogs!! I very grateful!!

Iris and Finch, our Great Danes, absolutely love it there!!! They actually know the days of the week they go!! Great staff, big outdoor space with large grassy outdoor play area :)

Ohilda and her family were awesome. We are so happy we found such a great place for our lab Sadie to stay. So comforting she is in such loving hands. It makes it relaxing when we want to get away.

I usually leave my little maltipoo, rocco, at the vet when we go out of town. He didn’t really like it very well. I found out about Ohilda’s and decided to give them a try! They treat him like their own and he is so much happier there than at the vet! She sends me pics and updates how he is doing while we are gone! He was somewhat timid and afraid when he was around other dogs and she is helping him get used to other dogs! Thank-you for loving rocco and taking such good care of him!🤩

We absolutely loved Ohilda’s Dog Sitting! We recently used her services for a short vacation. We had never left our pup with anyone other than family, and Ohilda treated her just like family! We took comfort knowing our dog was being loved on and taken care of! There was great communication with updates during the day so we could see how she was adjusting. I could tell from the pictures and videos she was having a great time! We highly recommend Ohilda and will definitely be using her again in the future!

I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding service provided by Ohilda’s Dog Sitting. Everything went smoothly. She made sure to do a full intake form and gather key information about my doggy’s feeding, bathroom breaks, medicines, play time, special needs and even preferences on belly rubs! The attention to detail immediately put me at ease knowing my dog (Keno) would have a comfortable and happy stay. Once we arrived to drop off, we got a full tour and could see that she ensures that all of dogs get along, does a one-on-one gentle introduction to each dog to introduce them to the pack and get them acquainted. Keno had a big backyard to play in and a cool and comfortable space indoors to relax and hang out too. We took an extended vacation out of the country and knew that our doggy was simply in the best hands. The best part is that we received constant updates, photos and pictures of our little Keno and could see just how happy he was. Highly recommend to everyone looking for an attentive, loving and the BEST sitting experience for their doggy! :)

Our Princess Harper had the best week at Ohilda’s Dog Sitting. If you are looking for a place to leave your fur baby, Ohilda’s is the best! She and her family will love your fur baby as their own. Most places keep your pet in a small confined area. Not at Ohilda’s, Harper loved having the freedom of the open house just like home. Mom loved the daily photos and updates. Thank you Ohilda and family for the superb love and care Harper received. She can’t wait for her next stay🐾 Trey, Melba, & Princess Harper Barnwell

My fur babies had a wonderful time while we were visiting our grandbabies. They stayed with Ohilda and her family. They made them part of their pack. When there they were allowed to stay out of their crate in the family home and play, run in the yard off leash, go for walks, play with other fur babies and the family. I can’t thank them enough for the love they showed Cali and Maceo. We had not fully potty trained them but that was no problem and they did it for us. She also keeps you in the loop while you are away by posting videos and pictures of your babies and texting you. Phone calls are also welcomed if you so choose. This was so great for socializing them with other people and dogs of different breeds and sizes. Ohilda also visits with you ahead of time to listen to your wants and needs. She then meets with your babies to make sure they are a good fit. You can rest assured if you choose this option, you won’t regret it. What a blessing Ohilda’s Dog Sitting is to our community and surrounding area. Thank you Ohilda, Scott and the rest of the family for loving them just like your own. Photo credit: Ohilda

I love O’Hildas Doggie Daycare. The venue is beautiful and just what my big guy, Coco needs. Our at home tribe renders Coco the biggest of the bunch. He needs interaction with dogs his size and he gets that at O’Hildas. I highly recommend this service.

My pups loved their weekend at the farm. Lots of fresh air, happy play, and snuggles! I was sent lots of updates on how they were getting on with their friends and reassurances that they were settling in.

Ohilda, Scott and their kids are simply the best. My pups look forward to going every chance they can! The thoughtfulness and all the amazing pups who are lucky enough to hang out there are what sets Ohilda apart from the rest. My favorite extra is that I know when my babies are there, it’s only because Ohilda knows all her clients well and will not put pups together who might not mix well. Knowing they’re safe is the upmost important aspect of Ohilda’s superb service!

We can’t say thank you enough for this family business! Our pup was anxious and very withdrawn while being introduced to new friends for her first overnight. Ohilda and her family took extra care while making introductions and really allowed extra time needed for her comfort level. They take individual needs into consideration and keep communication lines open. By the next day all of the anxiety was gone for our dog, and us!! We also learned just because our dog loves smaller pups, she wasn’t so sure about the bigger guys! We have some things to work on, but they were part of our learning process!! We highly recommend this “home away from home “ for your fur babies.

My parents have used ACE and had a positive experience, so they recommended it to me. I had a very positive experience too. I boarded my kitten with them and they gave me a little report card with a printed picture of him and information about his stay. And scheduling was easy. Pickup and drop off hours are convenient.

Everyone at Ace Pet Resort is friendly and helpful! I asked for a quick turnaround this morning, and she was actually done with a bath and nail trim i less than an hour! I highly recommend their services!

Love Ace Pet Resort! ❤️ We can't express how grateful we are to everyone who works at the Ace Pet Resort. Our cat was there for a week. For an entire week we were receiving a report about how our cat eats, sleeps, goes potty, and how he behaved. It's wonderful that all the people who work at this place are so caring and attentive. When we came to pick up our cat, we were given a report with his photo and a detailed description of his habits during his stay. We will definitely recommend this place to cat and dog owners. We trust them and we will definitely and gladly come back! Thank you all for your Care!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Florita and Tony

We boarded our dogs for vacation & I didn't worry about them for the 1st time. We received an update via text that was very detailed. The entire facility is clean & organized. The staff really care for your pets like one of their own. Booking was very easy on the website. Also response time was quick with my questions. Thank you Ace Pet Resort ❤️🐶

My doggies (dachshund and Boston Terrier) had an awesome time! They came home happy and relaxed. I love the little report card they gave us for them. This is the first place I’ve felt like I didn’t have to worry about them.

Ace Pet Resort has been wonderful trough the years taking care of my dogs. I just picked up Chloe and she was loved, played and I have peace of mind knowing she is having the best care. The staff is friendly and very caring

It was so wonderful to see all his bedding and toys cleaned as well . You are so warm also to the pets you bring in to your facility

I give it a five star! My Daisy Mae has been with you three times this year ranging from 21 to 6 days at a time. My husband has cancer and we have to board her for treatments. I can’t say enough about the staff they are so awesome! I get wonderful photos of her playing and updates of how she is doing! I already have her booked for next round! Love you guys and everything you do!!!!!!!🐶🐶

I have always found that the best indicator of a dog’s experience at a boarding facility is how they react when you pick them up. Although crazy excitement happens at seeing us again, after a stay at ACE, my dog is chill and relaxed. This has not been the same reaction from other facilities. I love the responsiveness and positive nature of the staff; updating us during our dog’s stay; and how clean they return your dog and belongings! I highly recommend them!

Ace Pet Resort and their employee’s are outstanding. We have had all of our dogs stay there for over 15 years. Recently we found out our beautiful pup Dharma has liver cancer. We had a trip scheduled for quite some time and felt confident that she would be in good hands. She was for sure the staff went above and beyond to make sure she felt safe and comfortable. They are the BEST!!! Thank you to everyone that works there and helped our little pup. We will never forget how great you are!!

My dogs absolutely love this place. One of the best value boarding facilities in the area. The staff are amazing & the dogs are always so well cared for and happy. We love the daily photo updates.

My fur baby always runs in happy to leave us for either daycare or boarding which is a huge relief! I mean look at this smile while there :) The staff is great and they truly care about animals. Not to mention they have so many services like washing, grooming, training etc. So happy to have found them, thank you Dog World!

I love Sarasota dog world. My puppy Nico has been going there for almost a year now and whenever we go he’s always so happy! He loves the staff and so do I. You can tell that they all love and connect with our furry loves. Michaela is just amazing— and goes above and beyond! We love Tyler, Tiana, Presley, and Alyssa to name a few. And the owner Lorri is fabulous. It makes me so happy to know that my fur baby is being loved and cared for. And it’s important to be able to trust a daycare. It’s a wonderful community to be a part of. And I can’t thank them enough for treating my baby so well!! They’re the best!!

I recently took my French bulldog to Dog World Sarasota, and it was an incredible experience! This was his first day of socialization, and I couldn't be happier with how it went. From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming and clearly passionate about dogs. They made both me and my pup feel at ease, which is so important for a first-time visitor. My Frenchie had a blast playing in the big dog group, splashing around in the pool, and meeting new furry friends. It was heartwarming to see him interact and enjoy himself in such a fun and safe environment. Overall, I highly recommend Dog World Sarasota for any dog owner looking to socialize their pet. The staff's dedication and the fantastic facilities truly make it a standout choice!

Dog World Sarasota has helped me provide a richer life for the seven year old dog I adopted last May. She gets to socialize with other dogs during daycare once a week, and she loves going there.

I have been taking Phoebe to daycare at Dog World Sarasota since she was 6 months old. Phoebe knows the days that she goes by going to get her leash and wait by the door to jump in the car! She runs in the door to give hugs to the wonderful staff that care for her while she's there. We've done training with Tammie to get her Good Citizen Certification and loves going to Scent classes with Wendy! Dog World Sarasota is an all around perfect facility to take your pup to daycare, classes, grooming and to boarder. I would be lost without a place for her to socialize and play. Makes her a VERY HAPPY DOGUE!

Liam absolutely LOVED his first day at Dog World! The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and it’s clear that everyone truly loves dogs. Receiving Liam’s report card and pictures from his first day made me smile! He was well cared for and is tired out from playing all day. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!

Love Dog World! Our miniature Aussie Luna has the best time playing with her human and furry friends at Dog World. The team is amazing and as sweet as can be! We have no problem boarding Luna when we travel. We know she is in good hands and have a great time!

Dog World is a wonderful doggy day care. My lab Daisy loves going there to be with the caring conscientious staff and her delightful furry friends. The day care is well run, clean and uniquely gives the animals a lot of outdoor time which is exactly what they enjoy.I highly recommend dog world.

My golden retriever, Sherlock, loves Dog World Sarasota. He has been going there for the last 7 years. He just can't wait to get there. He has a birthday party at Dog World with all of his friends coming up in the next few weeks. They do a fantastic job at Dog World Sarasota. I highly recommend taking your dog there. They have a great team and really love the dogs.

Where Pet are Family can be described as nothing less than an outstanding place to board your pet! We received daily pictures of our dog Gina playing and socializing with other dogs and romping freely in a very nicely fenced yard. We could see right off that Gina was comfortable and happy to be there. 100% extremely recommended!!!

I had a great experience with Ana, this was my first time using a boarding service for my dog, Lucy-Ella and I was nervous, however, Ana’s good natured professionalism reassured me. She patiently went over the guidelines and was flexible when I had to changed my drop- off date, at the last minute. Her home is beautiful and very welcoming. During Lucy-Ella’s stay, Ana provided daily updates and sent pictures on how she was doing. I will definitely use Ana’s services again. Once again, thank you for taking care of my little one!

Ana was amazing. She was able to socialize my dog who doesn't have experience around other dogs. I loved the environment and the fact that my Lucy was in a family home instead of a cage all by herself. She also took many pictures throughout Lucy's stay and kept us updated with how she was doing. I highly recommend this family business. We will definitely be using their services again!

Ana is great! I was desperate and didn’t want to leave my dogs at the vet with little interaction from people. Ana sent me photos several times to show me how my dogs were interacting with the others. Ana is also well versed in doggie behaviors so she has an in site to your fur baby. I felt very secure with my fur babies in her care! I would recommend Ana to care for your fur baby for sure.

Ana was very accommodating and our dog Curtis was very relaxed and happy in her care. Ana sent photos several times during his stay. My husband and I were at ease knowing he was well cared for in their securely fenced backyard and her pet friendly home. Ana is very affordable and flexible. We will definitely be returning customers just knowing our baby is being well cared for.

After getting our sweet puppies (2 years ago) we had really stopped traveling together as it was stressful trying to find the right overnight care for them. We were blessed to find Ana and “Where Pets are Family”. She is AMAZING with our boys who take a bit to get comfortable with strangers. Not with Ana, they were in her lap the first day! She was so kind and walked us through the best ways to ensure they had a successful & stress free stay! We now retake them for day care as well! Thank you Ana for loving our babies while we are away!!!

Our little girl is 18 months old. We recently moved and she only stayed with one other sitter previously that was not family. When we went to pick her up, she could not wait to get out the door. The sitter accepted all dogs and she was terrified of the big dogs. I was really excited to find a sitter that only accepts small dogs. Ana was great about sending pictures at least twice a day. Sadie always looked happy and seemed to be having a good time with the other dogs. When we went to pick her up, she was happy to see us but you could tell she was comfortable with Ana. We will definitely be using her again. Thanks Ana for talking such good care of our little girl Nancy M

I highly recommend Ana and Where Pets Are Family! She’s very sweet and knowledgeable and she treats our girls Tiki and Lucy like her own. My girls had the best time when they were there and they came home happy and tired from all the playing. I know they are in very good hands when I drop them off. The home setting is exactly what they need and very comforting to them. Ana sends pictures throughout the day to let me know how they are doing which is so nice! I’m so glad I found Ana and my pups new home away from home!

Once again Anna at Where Pets are Family exceeded our expectations. Baylee had a blast this past week with all her friends. We are not worried leaving Baylee with Anna and Curt at all they take care of our babies like they are their own

Lucy just had the very best time at Ana’s yesterday! She has trust issues was starting to have intermittent issues with some of the less experienced personnel at the kennel we were using so we found Ana’s cage less dog care to try. I have to say that I think Ana & Curt are dog whisperers, with their calm and caring nature. Lucy felt right at home. I was so pleased to find that this is truly the right place for Lucy. She loves to play with other dogs too and just did fabulously at Ana’s! So relieved to find Where Pets are Family!! Thank you Ana & Curt!!!

my dog absolutely loves coming in for daycare! i’ve been bringing her for 2 years and the staff always greets her when she comes in! she has so many friends and the staff is more than willing to send updates and pictures!

Fin loved his time there! I was nervous to take him anywhere but those fears were gone the minute I got there. A bit of backstory- Fin is a 13 year old Schnauzer. Until a few months ago, Fin spent every moment of his life with his blood brother Henry. They were born together, came home together and were always side by side. Fin has always been the protective one, the louder one when strangers or other dogs were around and Henry was the sweeter, friendlier one. Sadly, after a few medical issues, Henry recently passed. And it was tough on all of us, including Fin. So when I made plans to go out of town for the weekend, I was a bit hesitant. He’d never done anything like this before and I was nervous how he’d be with people or dogs he’d never met. I’ve been told from the vet and groomer that when he’s alone and around other dogs he’s a very nice gentleman. So I hoped he would be there as well. And they told me he was! They told me he did very good and I credit them for doing so! He had a wonderful time and everyone did a wonderful job. He came home clean and then sent me photos of him nightly which put our minds at ease. I would receive to anyone looking to board their loved pups!

This was my new puppy, Bennie’s, first visit at Woofdorf which came highly recommended he LOVED it. And came home with an adorable paw print craft too. Kelsie and Payton were amazing at the front desk and treated Bennie so lovingly. Can’t wait for him to go back to Woofdorf Astoria! What a lovely facility and staff.

My dog loves coming here for day care . I know this , since I can watch her on the cameras . It's a good group of dogs and there's always a person or two watching over them . The staff are friendly and put up with my dogs bad manners. Id recommend them for boarding or day care . They also do some grooming while you pet is there if needed. Nice !

Picked up my dogs after staying for 2 nights and was disgusted to find them both wreaking of urine and their beds completely saturated with urine. Our dogs have never made a mess in the house. This is completely out of character for our dogs. I asked when they were taken out to use the ‘potty’, I was told, “they were supposed to be taken out an hour ago.” When the employee handed them over to me for the first time, they both were clawing at the door. . I took em outside and they each ran to the grass at the property (Woofdorf) to poop and pee. It is clear to me they were not walked every 4 hours as we were told. Our dogs are used to being inside for several hours (while we are at work) for over a decade and have never had an issue like this. It is obvious they have been neglected and we are truly disappointed. After a long day of traveling— our dogs have no beds, had to bathe them twice to get the smell of urine out, clean my car and home. I would recommend avoiding this place.

We went out of town and my mother was watching our dog Nelson - which was a tremendous feat for her since he weighs about 75 pounds and she barely weighs more than that. She took him to the Woofdorf Astoria for play days while we were gone and it was terrific. They took such good care of him and he seemed to have a great time. It made it so much easier for her and she felt like they really cared about Nelson. We will definitely be using their services in the future!

our german shepherd whiskey loves it here! friendly informed staff, and easy process. i never have to worry about leaving our pup for daycare / boarding at this facility. the best in the area 🤍 …

My pet PIA absolutely LOVES going to Woofdorf Astoria. Last year was a bad year of illnesses and other issues for her off and on and she’s had no desire to want to do anything. I started to see her light shine again a “little” before the holidays approached and thought she was getting better. Here we are now in the new year of 2024 and she’s in a bit of a funk after a recent dog attack and wouldn’t snap out of it emotionally. It’s so upsetting to see your pet depressed and not wanting to play with their toys, interact in any way or to even take a walk. I decided to bring her back to WA yesterday to see if not only the staff would pick up her spirits but her doggie pals as well. WHAT A GAME CHANGER!! I received pics from the staff with her playing with her friends and having a great time and I too kept an eye on her on my cell thru their web cam. She was doing better than I anticipated. Her light shines “bright” again after just one visit, she is smiling a lot more and I have a very grateful heart. Thank you Woofdorf Astoria and your friendly, dedicated and loving staff for taking such good care of my little girl. If I could, I would give you 10 stars! GOD bless you all!! AR

We moved here 3 years ago and started taking Holly and Luna to Woofdorf as it was close to our home. Luckily, they are amazing! Our dogs love it there. Our oldest Holly passed away a few months ago and the staff put a picture of her in the office and sent a lovely sympathy card with everyone saying such kind things. It meant a lot. Luna was a little apprehensive at first going by herself, but the folks there made her comfortable. Thanks for all you do for our dogs! Your care is much appreciated.

I so highly recommend this boarding and daycare facility! Thank you to everyone at Woofdorf Astoria of LR. Our Gracie has never done well with Boarding. She always came home stressed and often with digestion problems. She has boarded now 4 times with them and done great! She is tired when she gets home but otherwise fine. I attribute that to the great care of the caregivers and 24 hour people in attendance. Really great place to keep your dog safe! ❤️

I called Paws & Love at the last minute needing doggie day care. They were so kind to accommodate and took such good care of Coco. She had a lot of fun and was worn out and happy to see me at the end of the day. Thank you so much!

Julia and Angel took care of my baby Bonnie. We can see Bonnie had a great time while she was in their care. We received updates daily from Julia and how Bonnie was doing. Definitely using their services again. The place is beautiful and well cared!

My wife and I love this place. We got our golden retriever puppy Mandy about five months ago. We looked for a place so Mandy could get some companionship and I found paws and love dog service. We met with Angel and Julia. they have watched Mandy numerous times during the day and overnight, and are very good to her. Mandy loves it there. The dogs get plenty of playtime, but also have rest time in the cool air-conditioned kennel area — so important in this Florida heat.

My family and I scheduled a vacation and needed a sitter for the pets for a couple days. Consequently, I ran across Paws and Love and decided to try them out. Meanwhile, my dogs have never been away from us so we weren't sure this was going to work. However, Julia and her family made a great first impression on us and I was impressed with the facility. Julia, seems to be a wonderful person with a wonderful spirit and temperament for the animals. My dogs don't take to everyone but they love Julia. Paws of Love is located on a wonderful piece of property, with spacious accomodations and housing for the comfort of the dogs. Yes, they have a back yard area that my dogs really enjoyed to explore and play for exercise. One of my dogs is a toy Pomeranian and even she enjoyed the backyard. I know this because Julia sent pictures and videos throughout the stay to keep us updated and comforted that the dogs were being well taken care of. I really appreciate this amenity from Paws and Love. I am already considering using Paws and Love for a daycare visit for the dogs if we ever want to hang out without leaving the dogs home alone. Unequivocally, I definitely recommend Paws and Love to anyone considering a daycare or boarding visit for the animals because Julia does a wonderful job taking care of the animals and its cost effective. Thank You Julia and Paws and Love for all you do for the animals!

We needed to board both our large boys last minute while we waited to close on our home for a week and came across Paws and love. They are incredible and beyond friendly, Julia is a gem and sent daily pictures of my boys. It was our first time ever having to use this type of service, I was nervous but Julia reassured me everyday the boys were doing wonderful and had adjusted nicely! Definitely recommend and will be using again!

Finding Paws and Love has been a blessing for our family. They are very professional and respond to texts quickly, and they are very accommodating even if we have last minute requests or time/date changes. We always receive pictures and videos throughout the day. Their facility is well maintained and comfortable for the dogs to run and play. Our girl loves to play with the other dogs and we know she is taken care of and looked after when in their care. We highly recommend them and will continue taking our girl there.

Julia took very good care of my pup Oreo while I was out of town for a weekend! Excellent pricing too! Would highly recommend.

Julia and Angel are so sweet and take great care of our pups. We’ve had to change dates or reschedule and they are always so nice and accommodating. I get multiple photo texts daily of my boys which is very comforting. I would give them 100 stars.

We had our White Golden Retriever stay here for 6 days and he loved it! He played with other friendly dogs, had toys to fetch and we got photos of him throughout his stay which was fantastic (these photos I added were from them!). Julia and Angel are very nice and respond right away to messages, having good communication which gave us peace of mind! We’ll be going here next time and we would recommend them to all!

Highly recommend! We boarded our golden with her and for a week while we went on a cruise and we are extremely happy with her services. The dogs have plenty of space outside, air conditioned inside and most importantly, our dog was well taken care of. She sends pictures and gives updates regularly as well as being reasonably priced. We will definately be using her services anytime we go out of town!
