Melquea
Sand Ridge, New York
Quirky couple in love with pet snuggles & belly rubs, while keeping a tidy home
Absolutely adored Melquea! Her energy and dependability are out of this world. Her and James took such good care of Oatly and our apt. It made us feel reassured that Oatly was in good hands and well loved. Thanks for everything, I hope we can meet next time and do another housesit!
Jay
Sand Ridge, New York
Experienced, Trustworthy, and Reliable Couple who will adore your beloved pets
5-star, highly recommended! Jay was an outstanding pet sitter. Great communication and meet/greet right off the bat. Pet care was fantastic - Sassy kitty adored Jay followed him everywhere and shy Swissy kitty too! Jay made an effort to win over the kitties by creating comfort spots for them, played games, tummy rubs, sent pictures and updates. I felt completely at ease to be away. Jay took care of the house, plants, birds and all responsibilities as well as cleaning everything before he left (totally unexpected). It looked like I never left. Outstanding, exceptional care by Jay! Thank you so much, Jay. I enjoyed getting to know you too.
Tammy
Sand Ridge, New York
I just want to love on your pets and take great care of your home.
Tammy is such a lovely person. She was in touch with me before, throughout, and after sitting for Peanut. My girl was well taken care of. She went on daily adventures, lots of hikes, shopping, and to the dog park. My house was cleaned and she even restocked my refrigerator. I definitely recommend Tammy and most definitely will stay in contact for future sits.
Lisa D'Annolfo
Sand Ridge, New York
Animals and Travel: An Empty-Nester's Duo Made in Heaven!
I could not have asked for a better sitter! My dog, Hank, has been looking disappointed with me ever since Lisa left and I returned. She clearly took amazing care of him and spent tons of time with him. He's a recent rescue and, I think, a sensitive soul, so the gentle attention and care she gave to him meant the world. She also took terrific care of the house, leaving it immaculate and the plants thriving. Highly recommend!
Alaina
Sand Ridge, New York
World traveler & experienced pet-sitter, seeing where my travels take me next!
Alaina was a great sitter and she got on with Patsy my dog straight away. Everything went smoothly and she was always available when I messaged. On my return, later than I expected due s flight delay, she managed to keep some unexpected visitors happy and cooked me a nice meal to welcome me home. I would be happy to recommend her 100%.
Bill
Sand Ridge, New York
Reliable to the Point of Boring
Bill and Sandy are awesome catsitters, housewatchers, and most importantly, people. Ernie took his normal two days to decide they were ok (I think that's how long it takes him to give up on me ever returning), and after that, he was literally eating out of the palm of their hands. And once you are cat-approved, you're golden. My house was spotless when I arrived (by pre-arrangement, they left around one hour before I got back home). Everything was where it belonged, and the place was clean. Before and during the sit, their communication was on-point. They arrived when they said they would, had already done some research of the area, and let me show them around a bit. If our schedules ever line up and they apply another time to watch the little guy, I would simply confirm the dates, accept them, and write 'thanks, but this sit is taken' notes to the other applicants. If they apply for one of your sits, you would be well-served to do the same.
Patricia
Sand Ridge, New York
Happy, mature, professional with home, pet and garden care experience
Unbelievably great experience. I'd award 10 stars not just 5!! I can't speak highly enough of Pat! She amazing from the get go - it was our first time with a house sitter and so we zoomed with Pat soon after agreeing dates and she really put us at ease. Pat reassured us with proof of her flight and trip details and then we kept in touch via Whatsapp. Pat came to stay with us a couple of days before we left and was absolutely brilliant with our dog Bagel. She was literally like a dog whisperer!! ;-) Just the loveliest most thoughtful person, but also relaxed and with a great sense of humour too! We didn't worry once about being away and Pat kept in touch regularly. We came back to the cleanest house I have ever seen!! (Pat had even planted a rose bush for us which had arrived as a gift just before we left!!) Just a brilliant experience from beginning to end. Thank you so so so so so much Pat!! We will keep in touch for sure and hope that one day she will return to us (fingers crossed!) xxxx Gill & Chris & Baggy Bagel xxxx
Sharon B
Sand Ridge, New York
My favorite days are spent lending a hand in the company of animals.
I highly recommend Sharon & can’t think of anyone I’d rather have stay with my pets. She is wonderful & did everything in her power to make sure we had an enjoyable trip before she even arrived. We came home to a clean house & very content dog. From first greet at the door, it was like Cleo had known Sharon for years. He can be a little bit standoffish sometimes, so that says a lot about her. He was treated like a king. Sharon was focused on Cleo & took the time to do all the activities he loves to do everyday (a long list) & provided lots of updates. Cleo is obviously disappointed. Sharon has left. Hoping she will come for another visit soon!
Kerin
Sand Ridge, New York
After raising 4 kids, I am ready to take good care of your precious ones!
Kerin provided exceptional care for our dogs while we were away. From the start, she was thorough and attentive, asking detailed questions to ensure she understood our dogs' needs. As first-time users of Zeewoi, Kerin patiently guided us through the process, easing any concerns we had. Her dedication was evident when she visited the day before our trip to meet our dogs and familiarize herself with our home. She handled our strong-willed Pyrenees, Wally, with ease, showing great patience and understanding of his quirks. Throughout our time away, Kerin maintained open communication, keeping us informed of any developments or concerns. Not only did she care for our dogs, but she also went above and beyond by cleaning our house, even folding a load of laundry left in the dryer! And all of my plants are thriving! Thanks to Kerin, we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in capable hands. Upon our return, it was clear they had been well-loved and cared for. We are incredibly grateful for Kerin's exceptional service and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dogsitter.
Lauren
Sand Ridge, New York
Experienced, loving pet sitter and veterinarian's daughter
Lauren is a gem. If we could give her a 6 out of 5 for quality pet care, we would. She’s a pleasure to work with, easy to communicate with, straight forward and consistent. Our Scottie, Sirius, adored her within moments of meeting her, and she handled our sensitive dog easily. Lauren is very loving, calm and professional. We look forward to having her sit for us again!
Reviews from Dog Owners
Tamar
Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Jeff
My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
Allyson
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!
Alexis
We had the pleasure of having Maggie (for the second time) to take care of our home and beloved dog Frida while we were away for 2 weeks. We couldn’t be happier! Neither could Frida! Our big dog is sometimes a bit stubborn and Maggie managed amazingly. We had daily photos and video, and Frida was clearly very happy, comfortable and very well looked after. We highly recommend Maggie to anyone in need of trustworthy and dedicated house sitter and animal lover
DAVID
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
Karine
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!
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
sara
Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose. Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes. They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit. They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day. They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety. We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard. He was so happy! No problems were encountered with the house. Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose. The house was spotless when we returned. Everything in proper order, better than we left it. We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!
Stephanie
Duha was such a light to have in our home while we were away. She kept us updated with beautiful photos of our dogs throughout her stay and didn’t leave their side once. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other sitter and I truly hope this won’t be the last time she sits for us.
Sidney & Larry
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!!

Michelle gave us an amazing service. She is very passionate about animals and especially dogs, and though last-minute changes happened with my dog health condition and he needed to take medications, she was nice enough to still accept my dog and gave him his medicine in time, and she would send me pictures of him. Will definitely recommend this place for friends.
I’ve known Michelle for 15 years, and she’s ALWAYS been amazing with animals. Animals have always been her passion and she literally follows her passion everyday, and makes them her job at every stage in her career. She is one of the biggest animal lovers I know, and takes her work very seriously! She’s amazing!! Shannon D. Barneveld, NY

Theresa is the best! I no longer have to worry about my two cats while I am away, as I know they are receiving the best care. Bville Buddies is a wonderful service that I have been using for 4 years now. I can check in with Theresa while I am gone or get a picture of my kitties that puts me at ease. She is responsible and trustworthy. Having her own pets, she knows how one can feel leaving theirs for a period of time! Theresa comes highly recommended from Teddie Bear and Zoey!
We have had Theresa as our dog caregiver for 9 years! We have a very timid dog that does not like strangers and she has always been wonderful with him and that puts our minds at ease when we are away. Theresa is a very caring professional. She walks, feeds and cares for the dogs and house as if they were her own. Reliable and trustworthy, I highly recommend Bville Buddies!
Theresa is reliable, accommodating, organized, and trustworthy. She is patient and understanding of my dog that has reactive tendencies on walks. There is no one I trust more than Theresa to walk and care for my dog while I am away. Most importantly, my dog loves and trusts her.
Theresa has been incredibly reliable for our dog sitting needs. She is great at communicating with us and I always know that my furry friends are in good hands. Theresa always goes above and beyond making every visit with our pets special and worth while. I would highly recommend Theresa.
Theresa has been our dog walker for 7 years! She handles the dogs well and is very supportive of their needs. Furthermore, Theresa is very dependable and sets a structure to her schedule ensuring that she will arrive at each home visit in a timely manner. When contacting Theresa, she is quick to reply, giving her full attention to our needs. It is a pleasure to deal with Theresa, a true professional. She has a myriad of knowledge and takes a personal interest in our animals. At the end of each visit, Theresa always leaves a note, and at times, has taken a few pictures as she is walking Bruin and Lucca on the paths. I would highly recommend Theresa without hesitation as she is an excellent dog walker, and we feel very fortunate to have her in the Baldwinsville area.
Theresa has been our pet sitter sense we first came to Baldwinsville 5 years ago. She took care of our 2-19 year old cats while we were out of town, so when we got our new kitten we were very comfortable hiring her again. Cleo just loves her. Its good to have peace of mind knowing she is well cared for.
Theresa is wonderful with my dog. She is very trustworthy & reliable. I have been using her services for many years. She always responds very quickly to my texts. I am very pleased.
Theresa has been my dog walker for 10 years through 4 different dogs. She’ll walk my 3 together with no problems - they wait by the door for her to come for their daily walk. She is the best!!
Theresa is amazing with our dogs. They absolutely love her and so do we. She is dependable, passionate about what she does and is very gifted at working with animals.
My experience thus far has been excellent. Teresa is warm and personable. I was so pleased to see Teresa interact with my dogs during out first meeting. Her love of animals is evident; an important quality for me. I feel fortunate to have found this reliable and professional woman.

My wife and I have left our two Australian shepherds there quite a few times now and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. Our dogs are always beyond excited when we pull into the driveway to drop them off and we LOVE the fact the owner sends us updates with photos on how the boys are doing. Would highly recommend Pine Creek Canine Kennels to anyone that needs to board their dogs.
I LOVE HER! The owner is so sweet! I booked for my dog unfortunately the wrong week and she was willing to move my dogs stay up to accommodate her! She didn't have to but, she did anyways and it was a wrong doing on my part. I will be boarding through her again and recommend her to others.
Our dog had never been watched or with anyone other than my mom if my fiance and I went away for a week. We were heading to Florida to get married and all of our family was going with us, so in comes Aniessa! She came highly recommended by a friend and coworker who brings her 3 dogs there frequently. Aniessa allowed for us to do a trial day with our dog before her week long stay. Miz was definitely a little timid at first, but seemed to be comfortable as the day went on. We were anxious dropping our girl off, but knew she would be in good hands. The daily updates and pictures helped put us at ease so much, and the fact that Mizzy just jumped out of her shell! This was 100% the right move and we will be bringing Miz back to Pine Creek to play and have a vacation herself. As a first time boarder, this experience couldn't have gone better! Thank you Aniessa!!
We needed a place to have our pup go while we were away. Pine creek is an amazing place! They truly care for the dogs that stay there. We've found our new go-to place! Highly recommend.
We had trouble finding a good fit for our dog until we found Pine Creek and Aniessa. We can tell she is well cared for, given attention while we are gone, we love the big yard for her to run, and she loves the treats!
Best kennel I have ever brought my dogs to! We were gone for weeks and received pictures daily! Great experience from drop off to pick up! Thank you for taking care of our family while we were away!
Aniessa is absolutely amazing with our dogs Ozzy and Bailey! We would recommend her to anyone needing dog boarding. She will send pictures and updates during their stay which helps ease an anxious dog owners mind! We have used her multiple times and will continue to use her for all of our boarding needs!
Our 3 dogs, Luna (pit mix 38lbs) Bandit (hound mix 45lbs) and Pluto (Brittney Mix 85lbs) vacation’s for the week while we went away. 8 days and when I arrived to pick them up. I’m not really sure they were ready to leave! They had a great time, I often received updates. Very happy. And everyone had a great time! Highly recommend!
Aniessa Brownell has a big heart and cares tremendously for his customer’s pets. I trust Pine Creek Canine Kennels for every time I have to leave or go on vacation. She is dependable, super friendly and professional. Aniessa Brownell goes the extra mile and she certainly exceeded my expectations with the love and care for my boy Barclay. The accommodations are the best from what I’ve seen and experienced and when I drop him off for daycare, he cries with excitement all the way down the driveway. You won’t find any kennel that will care more for your pet than Pine Creek Canine Kennels.
Found this kennel on Rover. We needed to find some place rather quickly and the owner was really accommodating and happy to work with our dog. Even when. Our dog has a high reactivity to other dogs and she has a special room for dogs like ours. We already have 2 more trips scheduled and our dog will be going there. Highly recommend.

Friendly ladies that work there... We call ahead to see if we can bring our two dogs in for a nail clipping, almost always we can bring them in the same day.... In and out pretty quick......
Bernie and Jessica took such good care of my 5 month old Havanese girl. After a rough first grooming experience at a different place, I was worried she wouldn’t handle another grooming very well. I was pleasantly surprised how Bernie took the time to bond with her in the beginning and set her up for success for the rest of the groom. She came back looking her best and not in distress. Very happy we found this place!
I love Paws Puppy Palace. They did an excellant job grooming my Daisy to my specifications. The prices are reasonable, the location was easy to find, and the staff was very friendly.
Amazing! 5-star service! Took my 2 Shih-Tzu's here, overdue for a cut; matted, dirty dogs! Came out looking and smelling like a million! My pups were happy here. Very nice atmosphere, the people are very sweet and caring... my new place to take my dogs! Absolutely love it here. Easy to park, large lot, easy to get to and find. Prices are great; lower than the big pet stores, by a significant amount; and the service is all-around stellar! Thank you so much, Paws Puppy Palace!
This is the second time I have had my golden doodle groomed at Paws Puppy Palace, and they do a fantastic job! They follow my requests, and my dog loves going there. The staff is excellent, and you can tell they care about dogs, and they make you feel like your dog is going to be at home when you leave them. Thank you, Paws Puppy Palace!
We have been going to PPP since March. For daycare and boarding. My dog lives this place and they love him too. He's one of the oldest guys that go to play. The place is awesome, kept clean , and staff is wonderful.
We have been taking our doggo here for about a year for daycare/boarding/grooming and all three services have been great. They truly love the dogs and our pup always comes home tired and happy.
People here are very friendly they are quick to accommodate your needs... They take care of your pups they also have food and snacks you can purchase...
We boarded our guy Harley for five days and the staff couldn’t have been more awesome! They hand fed Harley until he started eating well, played with him and made his stay absolutely wonderful. We highly recommend Paws to anyone!!
Tiffany and the staff were amazing! They took my 7-month-old Goldendoodle and did a wonderful job! Very clean and spacious. We will be bringing our boy back again!

Our pups recently returned from a stay at Woodland Acres K9 Retreat. I really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. I am so thankful our beloved dogs were in such good hands while we were away.
We booked last minute and they were amazing! So accommodating, I get nervous leaving my dogs anywhere and I felt very comfortable leaving our pup while we went out of town. They answered me right away when I asked how she was doing and kept me updated throughout her stay.
I highly recommend Dan and Teresa! They were so great with taking care of my 3 pups and my husband and I had no worries while we were out of town. They kept us updated on how they were doing and sent us pics. My pups have been other places and they seemed the most happiest and comfortable at Woodland Acres K9 Retreat!
So glad we found Teresa and Dan! The communication was great and she sent us daily updates. We never worried that our furry boy wasn't in good hands. He enjoyed lots of playtime and was treated like a member of their family. We will definitely be using them again
I've used a few other sitters in Onondaga County & this one takes the CAKE! The owners, Dan & Teresa, were so friendly & provided me with many updates while they took care of my pup. I never had a single worry while I was away & I can't wait to work with this retreat again! 10/10 STARS!!!
Great place with great owners! My dog had lots of interaction with Dan & Teresa. We felt welcome right away and they kept us updated on how our pet was doing. Highly recommend!
Nice family, they watched our pup over the holiday weekend. Everything looked well kept and clean. Got plenty of text and photo updates on how our pup was doing. 10/10 would recommend
Woodland Acres takes great care of our two dogs. They are professional and take care of my pets, giving them plenty of time to play.

I have spent time at this daycare, shadowing the owner, to learn more about this business. I found the grounds to be impeccably kept, expansive, with lots of room for the animals to exercise and interact. The owner took special care to know which animals could safely be outdoor kenneled with others for playful interactions. I watched as indoor buildings were meticulously cleaned and made ready for new animals. The record keeping for which animals were arriving and leaving, who needed what medications when and who ate what and how much were constantly checked and doubled checked. When the animals interacted with the owner and staff there were lots of rubs, cuddles, scratches and soft, kind words. I would strongly recommend this business for both long and short term care of animals. This owner and business will care for your pets as if they were her own!!
Great people! My cats were taken care of wonderfully. And I loved that she had the time to answer my emails to make sure they were settled in okay! Will definitely be returning for my next vacation!!
My dog was brought to Cameo at the end of April. At the time of drop off I specifically asked Stephanie to let him play on the grass, he has very sensitive feet. When I picked him up on Sunday right away I knew something was wrong with him. By the time I got home, he wouldn't get out of the car and wouldn't walk. Two days I spent carrying him in and out of the house to go outside. His feet were very red and raw and clearly he was in a lot of pain. I was very concerned and took him to my vets. I made her aware of the situation...her response "he has candy paws" and "if I can't get his feet callused by the time he needs to be boarded again in July, then he shouldn't come here anymore". Nice response isn't it? What kind of human being responds like that??? In addition, I was promised my deposit back, which I am told today, she is not refunding because I put a bad review on FB and my deposit is being put toward hiring a lawyer. Since when is it against the law to post a bad review?? I believe people need to be aware of how she runs her business and the lack of concern she has for my pet.
We did 1 night, then a week later 3 night stay for 2 dogs. They came home happy, clean and healthy. Allowed them to stay and play together. Tried play time with others but our female was to protective of our male. Both are large dogs. Especially like Sunday late pick up times (4-7 PM)
At Cameos, I understand the open set up and structured days aren't for all pets but anyone caring for them is doing all they can to make each stay safe and comfortable. I do understand when people don't hear all the things they want to about their pet, they aren't as happy and am truly sorry that means they share only the portions of conversation that will create negative feelings instead of trying to help their pet. I do understand everyone wants the best for their pet but am sincerely sorry they will forfeit honesty and communication to avoid awareness. I believe all dogs are good, behaviors can be bad. Each dog can be the best, if they are allowed to be, no matter the breed.
Was fortunate to have them as a kenneling option as our previous plans backed out last minute. Overall decent facility from what I saw, but after seeing the owner's brief interaction with our dog, we will probably not be using them again if we can help it. According to the owner, our larger puppy was put with smaller dogs, from what was described, and had to be moved with the larger breeds for "bullying" attitude towards the smaller dogs. That along with our dog's feet being noticeably worn at pickup and the owner's inability to properly command and interact with our larger and (on average) smarter breed, this place may not be for all. TLDR; not terrible place, but may not be for every family and every dog
My dog has been going to Cameo Kennels for both boarding and daycare for nearly three years. She always gets great care and loves it there. On daycare days, I just say " we are going to see Stephanie today" and she gets so excited. Over the past 30 years I have always had at least one dog and have used many kennels. Cameo is by far the cleanest we have ever used. We can tell the owner genuinely loves all the fur babies that she cares for. I would highly recommend Cameo Kennels.
Cameo Kennels is the best kennel we have ever used. The dogs spend most of their time outside socializing with other dogs. There is always someone watching the dogs, and they are very careful to watch personality types to make sure everyone is completely safe and having fun! Our dog can have some digestive issues when his routine changes, and they have been wonderful working with us to find the best solution for him - their idea of rice and pumpkin added to his diet has worked wonders! When my father went into the hospital, and we needed last minute dog care, Stephanie took our dog with no question even though she had her hands full! We absolutely love this kennel and have the utmost respect for Stephanie and how well she takes care of the dogs in her charge.
I have boarded my dogs at other kennels and they were well cared for but my older dog would never eat and was very shy with everyone. I had to take a last minute trip across country and Stephanie was able to board my dogs short notice. When I picked my dogs up from Cameo, my old dog looked fantastic and obviously was eating. She was also in very good spirits and was comfortable around all the employees. I would absolutely board my dogs there again.
My dog had a horrible experience here. I have had him in a day care prior to this experience, and had always left cheerful. I was considering their boarding for two nights, thank god I decided to have him try it out first. At first impression, I waited awhile to even have someone acknowledge our presence. So after work, I picked up my dog and I have never seen him so terrified in my life. He was making these cries I have never heard before. The girl said, “he had a good day, thanks for coming!” He also had the worst time walking to my car, his feet were so sore. When I brought him home, he drank two days worth of water. He must have been given any water, or they were not attentive enough to notice. I don’t know how this place gets so many good reviews?? Maybe because he has been to a far better daycare so my expectations are higher? Now my dog goes to K-9 Camp and LOVES it, he can’t wait to get out of the car and sleeps for a good 12 hours straight when he comes home. No issues with his feet or not drinking water while he is there.
