Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

Jordan
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

Courtenay
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

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
Mia
Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.
Ellie
Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.
Ruth
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
Linda
They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.
Deborah
This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!
Mark & Anne
Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!
Sarah
Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously. They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.
Teona
Alia is truly the most wonderful, loving and kind dog sitter I have used. My husky LOVES her. Not to mention whenever I travel and return home, my apartment is neat and orderly. She even baked a treat for me on my return! I highly recommend Alia. She has sat for me several times and I can't wait to use her again. Thanks Alia! Me and Grey love having you:)

Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.

Catherine took care of our Kobe for two weeks whilst we were overseas, and he seemed so happy playing on the beach and in the lounge with the other pups. When Kobe became unexpectedly ill, Catherine promptly took him to the local vet and kept us informed every step of the way. Thank you so much Catherine for your care and attention!
We highly recommend Catherine for doggy daycare and boarding. Charlie was a timid dog when she joined daycare and has benefitted from regular socialisation with other dogs and she adores Catherine! Charlie just spent 10 days happily boarding with Catherine in a safe and loving home environment. Charlie was well cared for and happy on our return. Catherine provides a top service and we love the regular photos and videos of their adventures. Thanks Greg & Edwina
Catherine took such great care of our dog who came back happier than ever! She maintained constant communication including photos and videos of our dog on a regular basis and was very careful to meet her every need. Our dog received a wide range of outings and overall had a great time in Catherine’s care. Would highly recommend Salty Dogs!
Catherine took great care of Nessie our 2 year old dog while we were away on a recent holiday. From the start Catherine’s approach and understanding of dogs was immediately reassuring that Nessie would be both well cared for and have a good time. Nessie settled really quickly in Catherine’s home and with the other dogs. We received photos & videos of the dogs out walking, exploring new dog parks and relaxing at home almost daily. Nessie was clearly having a exceedingly good time and was being well cared for. I highly recommend Catherine as a dog minder and we would definitely leave Nessie with her again.
The service Catherine provides at Salty Dogs is fantastic and this is evident in how excited our little cavoodle is to go there. We get sent photos and videos of the various adventures the dogs get to go on during the day. I think it’s fair to say that the time our dog spends at daycare with her friends is the highlight of her week.
Catherine is amazing and has provided so much love, kindness and support for our dogs, present and for our recently departed boy. We are blessed to have her in our lives, Poppy loves the walks when we are at work for the day.
Our dog Squid is our princess. We were worried about taking her from the daycare she's been at for 12 years to move onto somewhere new. Salty Dogs has exceeded our expectations in every way. We would never have thought that for the same price, Squid would get one on one attention (as opposed to 20:1 attention), two walks a day, quality sofa snuggles and in the care of Catherine, who clearly is a dog person. Squid loves Catherine who recognises her needs as an older girl, so much so that Squid HOOTS with excitement on the drive to Salty Dogs. We should have moved her sooner. 100% recommend.
I was so thrilled to have my precious boy dropped off after spending a lovely weekend with Catherine. He came home relaxed and happy. Catherine sent me lots of photos and a video of Reggie running around the beach. I would highly recommend Catherine.
My dog Hero had such a fun time with Catherine and Hugo, he was happy and relaxed throughout and has been very expressive since he came home and keen to play. He really enjoyed spending time with the other friendly dogs, and I enjoyed the nice updates from Catherine every day. Thank you Hero will be back to play soon!
I've used Catherine's services twice now. My pooch had a blast, he was well cared for and regularly exercised. Catherine also provided updates with photos and videos of their adventures. Very please and highly recommend! 😊 …

I used to kennel my dogs here but sadly they have died. Tracy runs a wonderful business caring. At the moment I've been taking a friend's dog out from there to walk at Makara Beach once a week while my friends the owners are away. Tracy has been very supportive of my doing this.
What a lovely place. The team are wonderful, and the facilities are excellent. I just wish Fred was a bit more happy to come home when I pick him up. He might be having too much fun at Doggy Camp.
I have been taking my girl Maggie to Dog Bach since she was little. Tracy and her team are all wonderful, kind, and caring and I have never worried about leaving Maggie in their care. Communication is excellent and prompt. Book early as this is a smaller kennel, but well worth the drive out to Mākara. Best kennel in Wellington!
Haven't been yet but as we are going to pick up both our new puppies next weekend we will definitely be training them and bringing them here during our overseas trip. I loved all the reviews and look forwarded to bringing our beautiful babies to use :) can't wait to meet the team.
Our golden retriever has stayed at the Dog Bach several times over the past year as we carry out home renovations - sometimes for 2 weeks at a time. Tracy and the team are wonderful, we know he is well cared for, in clean and safe facilities and has a great time. The team really care about the dogs in their care and ensure they have good play mates! Would definitely recommend them, but give them plenty of notice as they are always in demand!
What a great place! You can really tell that the staff love dogs--good vibes. Tracy was so helpful and friendly. I boarded my pup for a week. She got to play with a lot of other dogs. The facility is clean and well managed. I highly recommend Dog Bach :)
Probably not really relevant! It's years since been here! But worked here for the couple who owned the Ridgebacks! 🐕🐕 Loved it! 💛 They were great to work for!👍 Also was an amazing walk we use to take dog's🦮 down to like a waterfall swimming area! 🌊 Was great! Enjoyed my time here!🙂 As I'm sure the people who have it now do! 👋
Yuli checked in at The Dog Bach last week, and when we picked her up after 5 days she was happy and well. The place looks great, bathed in green with lots of fresh air. The team is professional and attentive, and they took excellent care of our girl. Will definitely use them again.
Pickles had a pretty cool holiday at the Dog Bach. He gets very well looked after and it's always such a treat going to pick him up and see how happy he has been. Thanks Tracy and the team! We look forward to booking in Pickles for his next summer vacation.
Excellent service - they went above and beyond expectations - and reasonably priced. My dogs came away in a playful, happy mood, and I will certainly be using their services again. Recommended.
