Pet Sitters in Baldwin City

A great place to take your dog if you are going out of town or your dog just needs a play day. Clean, friendly staff, fair pricing and great hours. A place you know your dog will be taken great care of and be happy while you are gone.

I don’t want to throw anybody under the bus, but we had a bad grooming experience there and it didn’t seem like anyone competent was on staff. They used their knee to hold our old arthritic dog against the wall while they brought another dog out. Then said he needed a muzzle, which he’s never needed for any vet or grooming service. We also heard staff yelling at dogs in one of the rooms. I think the layout is part of the problem. There are a lot of blind corners in the service area, which is very stressful for dogs, and I don’t like not being able to view where they’re grooming.

💯 on 99% of all counts, huge thumbs up!! Kind, knowledgeable, efficient staff and a very well-run business! My dog loves going there! I just wish they stayed open til 9, and later on Sundays. It's hard to get there by 7 if you work and do errands after work, and the climate often doesn't allow for leaving the dog in the car while you run into the drugstore etc. So you have to pick up your dog, take them home first, and then go back out to do errands. Not the best use of time, or gas. On Sundays if you go out of town for the weekend it's nearly impossible (at least for me) to get back by 4pm, so then I have to board overnight. Not a huge deal, but not ideal. This is all part of having a pup, sure, and the other stellar services HSW provides are more important and I'm so grateful! But staying open later, even at a premium price, would be a huge help.

We are from Arizona and were in town for a graduation. Took care of our pup and were 100% organized/attentive to our needs. From the first phone call to the day we picked our pup up, these folks were professional, VERY organized, attentive, and treated our fur baby with care. I would use them again in a heartbeat and wish they had a location closer to where we live!!

We were traveling from another state and needed day care for our pup. Staff was so friendly and accommodating. Would definitely go again.

I like home sweet home. It's a bit dirty but what can you expect from a big dog boarding daycare. The staff is always friendly and helpful. This is where I take my dog and they usually always have a spot for her. My dog seems to always enjoy her stay!

Last minute reservation for nail clip and Dremel on my large breed (Dane & border Collie mix). She’s fidgety but they had no problem working her in and did an excellent job on her nails!! No more scratches…Definitely got our $$ worth! We’ll be back!!

Amazing service! Friendly staff and very understanding of all my dogs needs especially as a first time boarding. They have multiple play areas dividing dogs by size, temperament and spaying. Staff is with the play groups at all times and their boarding costs are a fantastic price with different sleep options to help make your dog more comfortable. They allow you to bring in your own dog toys and bed along with their food. Will definitely be coming back!

My dogs love it here and the staff is amazing! I never feel worried leaving my dogs in their capable and caring hands

I might be able to give a five star rating in the future, but as of yet, we have only visited the facility. It's required that you bring your dog(s) for a get acquainted visit, and you are giving a tour of the facility. I find this reassuring that they want to see that you're pet is socialized and can get along with other critters. While the dogs are playing, you're given a tour and thorough explanation of their services, rates, policies, etc. All the staff we met were kind and thoughtful and worked there because of their true love of animals. Unfortunately, our planned stay was cancelled because one of our dogs injured his back and needed surgery. Hopefully, we'll be using them in the future.

I can't say enough good things about this place! Our dog loves it, and the staff treat her like a member of their own family. ♥️ Our dog can be a little bit on the sensitive/anxious side, but she seems confident at Woof's. At another popular doggie daycare in town, she'd always be really stressed and anxious after an overnight stay. Not the case at Woof's! After a stay at Woof's she ALWAYS comes home happy, tired, and relaxed.

This has always been my go to boarder location in Lawrence but I now feel it should also be everyone else's after what happened during my dog's most recent stay. My dog has a condition that has to be treated with specific medicine and during his last stay with Woof's, he experienced a medical emergency and the team here went above and beyond to make sure he got the meds he needed while we were hours away and unable to help. They actually took him to an Emergency Vet that isn't even located in Lawrence!! As I said, if you want your pet taken care of by folks that will treat him/her just like how you would treat that same pet in your own home, this is the place to go. This place has always been my go to but now it's my only option. Thank you, Woof's!

We can't recommend Woof's Play and Stay highly enough! They treat our pups like family. The staff is super knowledgeable and friendly and their facilities are well-kept and clean. Both of our dogs know when they're headed to Woof's and they can't WAIT to get out the door to get there. They've had our two dogs for day play and overnight stays and they come home happy and tuckered out. Their grooming services are also fantastic!

My Murray LOVES this place! I have tried him at other daycares and he never really took to it. He just waited at the gate for me to come back. Fast forward to Woof's! My boy tries to drag me into the door. He is happy and treated with TLC while there. I love being able to watch him play with his furfriends and pack leaders (humans) via webcam! That is a great bonus! Their indoor, outdoor and boarding areas are awesome and extremely clean. Any accident is immediately cleaned up and sanitized, which is very important to me. I wouldn't want my furchild getting sick at daycare like toddlers do. I'm excited that Murray is doing well and has had this opportunity to socialize in a safe and loving environment! I definitely recommend Woof's in Lawrence to anyone and already have to my friends!

This daycare is absolutely AMAZING! I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to post a review, but my pup absolutely loves it here! I am in law school, and I needed an affordable and amazing place for my pup to go on my long days. They have cameras so you can check on your pup throughout the day if you’re neurotic like me. They also offer grooming and do an amazing job! My pup loves it there so much that she has jumped out of the car twice (once the second I opened the door, once out the window I had down) to get to the daycare faster than I was moving! My pup loves every day she gets to stay at Woofs!

Ok, so my pup LOVES doggy daycare! She is always super excited when we pull up in the parking lot and she runs right in. She also comes home exhausted, so I know she had a great day of playing! We've also booked her to stay during our summer vacation last year and plan another few days during the upcoming Spring Break. I have no worries that she'll get the best care!

The level of care Woof’s and their staff have is unmatched. My dog has been to several daycares in his life, but when he gets to Woof’s, it’s the best day ever to him. They are thorough, accommodating, compassionate, and high-level communicators. Thank you woof’s! Couldn’t recommend them more.

We LOVE Woof's! Our dog is so excited to go there every time. We've done dayplay, longer vacation stays, and grooming. The staff are so friendly and know our dog very well and are always super communicative and helpful. The grooming is pretty good too! We don't get anything fancy but it's nice when she gets a good bath and nail trim before we pick her up :)

I can not say enough amazing things about Woof's and their staff. This was our first time boarding with Woof's and we are so happy. Every time we got on the cameras, the workers were always loving on the dogs in the play rooms. Never once did I see an employee on their phone. Everyone is so nice and helpful. It was such a piece of mind to get on the cameras and see our Drako being loved on. Such kudos to Woof's and their employees. 10/10 will be back.

These dogs constantly bark especially in the early hours of the morning. I live behind this park and all I hear is dogs barking and workers yelling at them!

We ha e been coming here for 20 years my favorite place for boarding. They only take smaller dogs. My Shi Tzu always has friends to play with.

This is a little out of the way if you live in Lawrence, but it's the only place I trust my small dog to if I need daycare or a boarding kennel. Small dogs have several areas to play, and they keep dogs on a reliable routine. Staff are caring people and do a good job supervising them. Staff pairs up dogs with others to play with and gets to know the personalities of all the little fur babies. I highly recommended making the drive, but book your dogs stay in advance, they fill up.

Still in business, but small dogs only on a limited basis. Call to discuss. We've enjoyed Jerri's services many times from a couple days to a couple of weeks and the experiences are always excellent!

I know my dog is safe and well cared for on his 'vacations' at Country Meadow.

Our daughter worked there and say the dogs are treated like family!

Our dog loves to go to the kennel! It’s like a trip to Grandma’s!

I liked it, but in June 2020 she said she was out of business.

Best animal hotel!

I previously used PetSuites Shawnee a year ago and had no issues. I only board my dog once a year for vacation and prior to using this location, I had taken him to be boarded at his vets office, but the location is far away. I just picked up my dog. He had urine on him and smelled like feces. His weight is down and he has a rash over his abdomen. I just called and was told that they saw a rash in the first couple of days…false…also, no one notified me and they didn’t even follow their own protocol. They had no manager to speak with. My dog has never had a rash, he is 4.5 years old. This was purely from being in waste…Also, he was just seen by the vet a two weeks before we boarded him. He is an inside dog and we have used the same products for him since he was a puppy. He is a very clean dog and the fact that he has waste on him is so upsetting. Update: I took my dog to the vet on Monday. He lost 5 lbs which is almost 19% of his body weight. He also had a fungal infection, which he did get at this facility. The manager did call me after I initially posted this review and did offer to pay his vet bill. I’m pretty upset that we paid over $350 for my dog to board and he was left in disgusting conditions and was not properly cared for. He is a very clean indoor dog. I also never received reports on his care for the week. I will never take him her again.

Loved our experience with Petsuites Shawnee! I really appreciated the daily text update about my dog who was staying for the first time. My dog is really shy and nervous so they made sure to keep a really close watch on her during play time and were ready and willing to do one on one play time if group play proved to be too much stress for my girl. I will definitely be using them again.

I really do not like posting negative reviews, but this experience has been extremely frustrating. We boarded our 2 senior dogs at PetSuites Shawnee while we were out of town from 7/18-7/28. We had previously visited the facility & also had our dogs go for an assessment to see how they would fit with the play groups. We were initially pleased with the facility, & all the staff members we interacted with were very friendly and polite. Our female dog is a rescue & gets separation anxiety when we board them. She is typically fine as long as she is kept with our other dog & she has some items from home, which I told them about when we made the appointment. When we dropped the dogs off, I brought her blanket from home & her Kong toy, which she constantly chews on. We did the "luxury suite" so we could have the webcam to see them & they would have the tv for some noise. I checked in on them frequently while we were gone & everything seemed fine the first couple of days. After the first couple of days, I didn't see our blanket from home in the kennel & then the Kong disappeared. When I checked on them the evening of 7/27, I saw that one of them had vomited in the kennel. I sent a message to the staff & someone called me back shortly. They said they had recently fed them so it must have just happened. She said they did not know which dog had vomited & suggested I watch them to see if I could see anything. I watched through the webcam as they removed both dogs & sprayed out the kennel. They put the dogs back in the kennel shortly after, but did not put their raised bed or any blankets or pads in the kennel with them. It also did not appear that they offered their food back to them. My access to the webcam stopped shortly after this. I checked back in on them at 5:45 AM on 7/28 & noted that they were still curled up sleeping on the cement floor. Our female dog has arthritis starting in her hip and gets very sore, so I was concerned that they did not even have a pad to lay on. I again sent a message to the staff. I received a response back later in the morning (when they opened) that the facility was full & they did not have an extra bed available for them, but they would be putting something in there for them shortly. I sent a message asking where the blanket we brought from home was & never received a response. A short time later, someone placed two pads in the kennel with them. We picked our dogs up later that afternoon when we arrived home. Prior to that, I had received an incomplete "pawgress report" on our female dog, but nothing on our male dog. There were several days where only one feeding was noted instead of their normal morning & evening feedings. I also noticed that the feeding from the evening of 7/27 said there was "no food left in the bowls" but I had seen both bowls removed from the kennel with most of the food still in them & never saw them replaced. While we were waiting for them to bring our dogs to us, I asked the staff member about the discrepancies with the feeding. She looked something in the computer & replied that they had been fed both times each day, it just was not logged every time. If it was not logged, I am not sure what she was looking at to come up with that information. I also asked if they had had the enrichment sessions we paid for, because nothing was noted in the report and she said she was sure they had, because the "trainer was really good about that." When they brought our dogs out, I immediately noticed that all 4 of our female dog's feet were red, as if she had been licking them excessively. She has white feet and they were very noticeable. She also had a sore on her back left foot. I asked the staff member if she had been licking her feet (she has done this with one foot in the past, but never all 4 and usually not when she has her Kong to chew on) and she said "I don't know, I wasn't here last week." Had someone called me to tell me this was happening, I would have sent my sister there with her anxiety medication. The blanket we brought was not returned to us.

I take my small miniature golden doodle to pet suites twice a week. It helps him release a lot of his little dog energy! I like the customer service of everyone at the front desk and I’m impressed by the cleanliness of the facility itself. I also like that they have cameras that I can look at throughout the day to see how Fergus is doing. All in all I continue to use them based on all of the above.

I was really impressed with the updates they sent me of my furbabies during their stay,it let me get the things done I needed to without worry,I will definitely trust them again

Boarded our dogs here for the first time and I was so pleased ! Received pictures and updates each day. When I picked my dogs up, they were happy and smelled good ! I felt they were organized and enjoy caring for my dogs. Will definitely use them again. It's hard leaving dogs to leave town but this places make it better !

My 9 month old puppy was there 4 hours for her first visit. We had only been there the week before for a tour, but when we went for her first stay she could hardly wait to get out of the car and go inside! She made some new canine friends and came home totally exhausted. PetSuites Shawnee is a clean, well organized facility with friendly associates. I recommend it to anyone looking for a place for their fur baby.

This was our first time boarding our pups at Pet Suites Shawnee. And our puppy had never been boarded before. We had a wonderful experience and I highly recommend this place!! We got pics and pawgress reports of both dogs daily and could look on the live cameras and see them during playtime. They were both happy as could be when we picked them up after 4 nights there. We will definitely be going back, they were very well taken care of!!

I have always been pleased with PetSuites. They have openings, even when I book late. I am able to see my dogs on the webcam. This makes me feel better when I am away on vacation. Recently, I had to board my dog after a minor injury. PetSuites kept me updated on her condition and took good care of her. The facility is extremely clean, and the staff is friendly.

I booked the Daycare Group Play + Room (for dogs who need their own space for lunch, medication, or rest breaks during Full Day Play) package online. I decided to pay extra so that my dog could get a break and a chance to eat. Drop off went smooth and the front office staff were very kind and friendly. Throughout the day my son was enjoying watching our dog on the indoor camera feed. He told me every time he tuned in that our dog was there. I was concerned that our dog didn’t get break we expected and paid for. When I went to pick him up, I asked the employee who checked me out if she could assure me that our dog was given a break and chance to eat. Without hesitation, she assured me that he was. When I pointed out that my son had been watching the video feed and it didn’t appear that was the case, she asked a couple other employees who happened to be walking through if our dog did indeed receive a lunch break. They both looked puzzled and said that they weren’t aware of him getting a break. After it became obvious that my dog never received the break we paid for, the employee did not offer an apology or offer to provide me the reduced Daycare only rate. It was only after I told her that I didn’t think I should be paying for a service that I didn’t receive that she offered to discount my rate. As I paid she told me it was my responsibility to mention what package our dog was signed up for when I dropped him off so that it could be noted. I found that to be a way to deny any responsibility because 1) no one ever asked me what package he was signed up for when I dropped him off and 2) I would have thought that when I dropped him off for daycare with a bag of food it would have been obvious that I expected him to be fed during his stay.

Been using HSH for past 5 years. I've used both locations but predominantly the West location. I have two 60lbs dogs. They have always taken care of me even a couple times when I was in a pinch. I mostly use the daycare but have also used the boarding several times. The thing that stands out to me is how much the staff enjoy what they do. They're always friendly and it's obvious they have built a relationship with my dogs. They really do care and believe in what they're doing. I don't worry about my dogs while they're in their care. My dogs come home exhausted from so much play. Book early for boarding especially around holidays. It seems many others trust HSH with their dogs too! 😉

Our 3 pups love going and come home tired. We have been to both locations and have utilized daycare and boarding with home sweet home since 2018! Highly recommend.

We LOVE Home Sweet Home! We have at least four or five other family/friends that take their pets here and they all rave about it. I love that they make my dog sit and wait before letting him come out to me, instead of letting him bounce up and down on them or me. We taught him to sit and wait at home, so it is nice that they do it and it doesn’t break the habit we taught him. The staff members are knowledgeable and kind, my dog adores them! We have gotten to the point where when we arrive, he knows exactly where he is and he gets all excited. If you are ever considering taking your pet somewhere for the day to let them play or if you need to board them, take them to Home Sweet Home! (The picture is the nap on the 5 minute car ride home.. he is always ready for a nap after daycare!)

My sister-in-law's dog is very shy. He had a lovely "meet and greet" experience to help him get ready for his coming stay when his mom is going on vacation.

Hands down best place I’ve taken my dog to board. They’re very communicative and thorough with their prices. My dog struggles with anxiety and reactivity and they’re understanding and accommodate for his needs. He always comes home happy as ever and excited. The staff is very kind as well :)

Great place for my dog to have a play day with other dogs. The place is clean inside and out. They have a great staff who's always giving attention and love to my boy. I really feel comfortable leaving him with them. I know he'll be looked after right. They're very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional about their business.

Our dog absolutely loves hanging with her "pack" at HSH. We trust them to always care for her as they would their own pups. Boarding goes smoothly as well, and the prices are very reasonable.

I recommend this Dog resort for all your fur babies. My boy (Thor) is in love with this place. They take very good care of my German shepherd.

My dog Charlie has been going there the last 3 yrs,he loves going there and I feel totally comfortable dropping him off now and then and sometimes overnight .They all do a great job..👍 …

Lucca has been going half days 3X a week and is a much happier, socialized puppy because of this. He recently had to board for a long weekend and, again, had so much fun. The staff are always professional but also very friendly. Highly recommend!
