Our second time using Virginia and Jared and they were amazing, as usual. They generously sent us multiple videos and pictures daily and left our house spotless. Most importantly Baloo was so well taken care of, we couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks again, guys!

Sandra and Cooper were amazing! Unfortunately, Crispy had some health issues present between our booking and our trip. This made him a lot more special needs than we had anticipated and I know he was a bit more trouble than was expected. They reassured us and kept us informed the entire time. We certainly did not plan on it being this type of stay for them but they adapted quite well and kept us informed. This was our first zeewoi experience and we are so fortunate to have been paired with them. Thank you again!

Clean, respectful, loving mom & daughter DUO!
Danni was a fantastic sitter, probably the best sitter we’ve ever had. She was excellent with communication prior to and during the sit. She was very friendly and our cat (who isn’t very social) even came out of hiding while she was here. We were out of the country and had no pet worries thanks to Danni’s care. We would wholly recommend her 10/10.

Lauren is an incredible sitter. Her communication and organisation was excellent and she made us feel extremely relaxed the minute she arrived to care for Lilah. Lilah loved her time with Lauren and was a very happy and content soul on our return. Lauren kept us updated on a daily basis with lovely photos and information of what they had done on a walk - utterly charming and such a strong example of how evidently loved and well cared for that Lilah was. Lauren looked after the flat perfectly, leaving washed sheets and a super tidy space on our return. As if that is not enough, Lauren is a brilliant person who is super bright with a kind and considerate way about her. We cannot recommend her more highly!

Your home and pets will be cared with much love
This was our first time using zeewoi, and Gaby made us feel reassured about leaving our 2 dogs behind to travel. She spent most of her time with them and sent pictures every day. It is clear Gaby loves animals deeply, so we were very happy to know our dogs were not just being looked after, but loved on in our absence. She took the time to get to know their individual personalities and quirks and give the specific type of care and attention needed for each pup. One of our dogs can be shy and insecure and very attached to me, but Gaby earned her trust in a matter of hours. Gaby allowed us to travel without worrying about our dogs, and we would have her sit for us again in the future!

I had a last minute trip come up, and was relieved Valerie was able to take care of my kitties in a pinch. I liked her immediately upon meeting her, and felt her great energy would be a perfect match for my shy kitties. As far as I could tell, Valerie took good care of the kitties while I was away. The communication was just okay. She eventually replied to my messages about this and that, but didn't really initiate or share little updates or photos of the kitties and how it was going unless I reached out first. When I came home, I discovered that an item of mine was missing and asked her if she had seen it anywhere, thinking I must have misplaced it before I left. She acknowledged she had taken it, but didn't actually apologize, incredibly, and then it was a real struggle to try to get it back or at least have her send a replacement. After much persistence and pursuit on my part and quite the runaround on her part, she eventually replaced it, but I was a bit taken aback by her blasé attitude about taking it in the first place and then casual avoidance to resolving the situation. All very surprising, and an unfortunate disheartening footnote to the petsit. All that being said, she left my house very clean and tidy, and the kitties seemed very calm and content when I returned.

Animal Lover Since Age 7. Your pets are my new best friends. Truly.
Karen took excellent care of Zorro...He could not be happier! Since it was a long term sit and since it was during the summer, Zorro had a bad case of the fleas. His flea collar and frontline treatment was not working. After communicating with us, Karen took the initiative to take Zorro to the vet for treatment. When we got home Zorro was happy and flea free.

Hari did a great job taking care of my two cats and seems to have made good friends with both of them while I was away -- something that's not always that easy with my kitties. She was also really good at communicating, sending me updates and pix regularly. And best of all, my place looked great when I got back home. Thanks Hari!

Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.
We were lucky to have Andrea back for another sit with our elderly dog and feral cat. She has been wonderful both in the past and on this last sit for a month! We trust her implicitly and are always at ease that our pets will have the most kind and careful attention. She is excellent with videos and communication and very clean and tidy. Again we feel lucky to have found her, and feel she would be a great sitter for any pets!
Tom provided a last minute sit when my 2 week long trip got extended to the 3rd. The previous zeewoi sitter was no longer available for the 3rd week, and Tom came in as a savior. As requested, he started his sit a day prior to the posted dates (thank you for being flexible). He met the prior zeewoi in person, since I was not in town, and got to know the house and cats quickly. He sent pictures of the cats each day and added a note about their well being. He was independent and was able to figure out how to use the litter genie on his own. I returned to a clean home and healthy happy cats. Would love to have Tom return and recommend him to anyone leaving their pets in his care.
Rachel was an excellent pet sitter for my cat. She was a good communicator and also kept my place very tidy. She even left me a gift of a bar of chocolate upon her departure! Highly recommend.
Angie and her husband Joe were a great fit for our house and pet sitting needs! They kept in communication with us before our vacation started, and were able to arrive a little early so we could walk them through how various systems worked and where controls were located. Our dog bonded with Angie very quickly and I think he was hoping she would stay after we returned home :) We got regular updates and pet photos while we were traveling. Although we were out of cell phone range for several days, we never had a doubt that things at home would be just fine while they were there! They were also very flexible and understanding. Due to our flight schedule we arrived home in the middle of the night. Angie was able to feed and walk our dog, clean up and leave in the morning without waking us up! The house was left clean, the garden was thriving and our pup was happy. We are happy, and would be happy to have them back again as sitters anytime.
Ramona and Brandon were the perfect sitters! They rescued me and were very accommodating with my needs. Ramona's communication with me was A1. We spoke multiple times before she arrived and throughout the sit. She was good at keeping me updated and I was very grateful for that, being so far away. The pets gravitated toward them from the moment they arrived and you could see that all she and Brandon wanted to do was spoil the pets with lots of cuddles. My female pup was in heat and they handled that very well and were able to keep her and my male dog separated. I could only imagine how exhausting that may have been but they didn't complain one bit. Ramona and Brandon had to hand over the sit to another sitter and were kind enough to write out the details and everything they observed to make the transition a seamless one. I must say, it helped tremendously. I'd have them back in a heartbeat to sit for me as they showed that I could trust them, not only to take care of my pets but to respect my home they way they would their own. Thanks again for making my trip away worth it!
Mikala & Jake were great house & pet sitters for us!! Our dog and two cats absolutely adored them, and we came back to a very clean home with happy animals :) They were very reliable and fast communicators. They even had to deal with our power going out while we were away, and they handled it well. It eased our minds to know our animals and house were in such great care while we were away and would have them sit for us anytime!
David was a super interesting guy, we had good conversation. My place was clean, my cat was happy...he communicated with me.. David is a great house and pet sitter . He is very gentle, which my cat enjoys.
If you’re lucky enough to find Anna as your pet sitter you will have peace of mind and well cared for pets whilst you are away and a clean and tidy home on your return. Anna is thoughtful and kind, she arrived the evening before the sit which allowed for some time to hear about her interesting travels and work, kept me updated with fabulous photos and details of the friendship she was making with the cats and even took the trouble to fix a sticky catch on the cat flap. I can recommend her as a sitter without hesitation. Thank you Anna
Neil and Anne have just sat for us for a second time, for a week. They are outstanding sitters in every way. Always punctual with communication and arrival. They both have responsible jobs and this is evident as they are both very organised. They care very much about the animals they look after. We were regularly sent updates, pictures and video clips of them, which is great to see when you are away. When we came home we were greeted by happy pets and an immaculately tidy house. We cannot recommend Neil and Anne enough. As far as we are concerned they are perfect housesitters! …...Hopefully they will come back and sit again soon!

Hands down, the best dog boarding facility in the area! I’m always worried about my pup after she’s been there for X many days cause she’s so exhausted after… but still, every time we bring her back she’s pumped up and wagging her tail! So until the day she refuses to walk through those doors is the day we will think differently. We have yet to see that happen. They get to roam, option to swim, play all day and have staff sleep in bunk beds with them at night and I can spy on her during the day when I miss her with their cameras. Idk how it could get any better! We love all of the staff we have met. We’ve also brought our dog there a couple times for swim lessons and seriously, I don’t have anything negative to say. It also gets extra points for being so close to SNA or on the way to LAX! We LOVE this place!
This is the best and friendliest groomer I've ever used. They're super good about getting my dog in quickly. They're so sweet to my dog and he always looks amazing. They're also very flexible on drop off and pick up times unlike some other places that only give me short windows and want to charge all kinds of fees. I moved and still drive to Bone adventure because they're amazing
Wonderful staff & great faculty. My two cardigan corgis can't wait to get in the door for their 4 hour play time. This time, I was able to add swim time for an additional fee. The pups really enjoyed their visit.
We LOVE this place! We just got back from our third doggie swim session and my pups are super happy, enriched, and passed out for well deserved naps. The staff is amazing, my female dog is a very nervous girl and they are fantastic with her.
We waited for so long to get into this daycare for our blue heeler. They have way too many dogs. I had an employee tell me that our heeler was aggressive with the other dogs and kept herding them. Our herder doing want comes natural. Our dog became depressed and stressed to go in. I would not recommend this business to any one with a working dog. Lesson learned. We now have been at one in Laguna and our heeler has never been happier.
The staff is perfect. My dogs can’t wait get in the four which is very telling! It’s a bit pricey but worth it!
The best loved dogs in the world come here for the absolute best care away from home! This facility blows my mind. The wonderful owner Di has thought of everything: pools, shade, grooming, nap room and fantastic staff of dog fanatics that put serious into every interaction. Super clean, diligent attention to diet, meds and behavior. AND great access for commuters: easy on/off freeway access.
My dog loves coming here... They have a small doggie pool to keep themselves... Just a bit overpriced though
Place is really nice since it’s so close to my work. The staff is always extremely friendly and knew my dogs name after the first visit. It’s a little pricey but so is most day care. Cameras are a nice touch can log in and watch from anywhere. My pup loves water so their play fountains are perfect for him. Highly recommend this place.
A before and after of our fur baby - we love coming here for grooming. Every one who works there is pleasant and really good with the dogs. They're calm, patient and loving. We absolutely love that she doesn't get locked in a kennel for hours as other dogs are getting bathed and groomed. She gets to roam free in the grooming and small dog areas. They always do a great job with the hair cuts and bathing. They also clean out her ears and trim her nails.
We LOVE Dog Republic! Both of our golden retrievers love playing with all of their furry friends. The pack walks are fantastic! It’s an excellent way to socialize your dog. Their dog trainers are the BEST! Hunter’s very knowledgeable and was extremely helpful with our 2 year old named Blaze. Brandon is our favorite staff member! Such great energy! He’s always smiling and so happy to see our dogs. Kelly is the manager. She’s well organized and always does her best to take care of our baby boys. She’s very responsive when you have questions or concerns. Kevin, the owner, we really like that guy! We’re very thankful for everything he does for our family. Highly recommend! 5 stars!
I have an extremely reactive Malinois! I was referred to Dog republic from a neighbor and oh boy did I find exactly what we needed. Kevin was the first expert to make my boy calm down and act like he has manners. I take both my Shepard's in for boarding when I need to and we also use the grooming services. We are so thankful we found these guys!
Kevin and the Dog Republic team have been life savers for us when it comes to our dog Torrey. They trained her when she was a puppy and she loves going for walks with the pack to get out some energy and play with her friends. There is no one else we would trust to take care of our dog! Can’t recommend this team enough.
My Golden Retriever went for the board and train program and the improvements are just amazing! He will be going to board there going forward and get training sessions in every now and then as well to keep up with his progress. Can’t speak highly enough of Kelly, Hunter and the team!
We used Dog Republic while in town for the holidays visiting family and would highly recommend it to anyone. Our cavapoo couldn't wait to go every time and loved getting photos of their adventures. They had excellent communication and were flexible with time and schedule adjustments. Thank you Dog Republic!
I was very excited to get my 2 pups enrolled with Dog Republic as I would see their vans driving around and they had great reviews. The “temperament test” went great with Kevin; he was personable, friendly, and great with my pups. I started to have my pups go to daycare for a few hours each week to get them acclimated. I am very sad to say I was quite disappointed the few times I had my pups go to daycare at Dog Republic and honestly hated leaving them there. Every staff member besides Kevin and Dani (they both were awesome and very caring, personable people!), couldn’t care less about their job. They acted like opening up the door to let my pups in for daycare was the biggest hassle and would literally drag them inside with the leash. The house was a dirty mess. They specifically promised me photos every daycare session and were the ones to always bring up that the photos would be sent, however I not once got photos and had to ask for photos every single time, or sometimes they would even reply to me stating “they’re playing with their friends.” I’m sorry, but that is a horrible response, I’d hope they’re “playing with their friends.” I’m someone who definitely takes reviews into consideration and wanted to give my honest feedback. I’m sadly VERY disappointed in this place. If the staff can’t even fake a professional front for me at the door, I can’t imagine how they treat the pups back there.
Dog Republic is so great! We use them regularly for pack walks and my dog just loves them. All of the employees are friendly, great with dogs and professional. Since my dog is a puppy, I love that she is getting a good walk, getting a little extra training by being with someone else and other dogs and that it’s fun for her. Dog Republic is a one-stop shop. I have used their day care, overnight boarding and grooming. All are fantastic and they take such great care of your pup. I highly recommend them!
We take our German Sheppard Axel there for pack walking and day camp. They do an excellent job with him and send us an email letting us know how he did for the day. The staff is great with him and are really nice. They have a cage-free environment that is great for the dogs. We have also boarded him there for a week and he loved it. Great place to take your dog!
Dog Republic is amazing! Everyone there has the best energy and you can sense it when you see how excited your dog is to go back the next day! Whether it be a pack walk or boarding your dog will be jumping up and down when they are on their way!! All the pack walkers really care and truly give your dog the best workout! While engaging with other pups and learning how to walk with the pack!
We visited their facility and it reminded us of jail with over 50 dogs in a small yard. No toys or anything else. We then tried them for their famous walks. The pick up was great and we were promised their will walk my dog for at least an hour. My dog has a GPS so I was able to teach her activity fir the afternoon. Basically, she was gone for 2.5 hours and was walked for 35 minutes. That is, for almost 2 hours she was driven in a can while they picked up and dropped many other dogs. I think they can get away with it since no one can actually know what they are doing (unless your dog has a GPS device). Stay away from them! I saw the response of the company and want to clarify. I have a GPS device on my puppy and I have a map with time stamps. The puppy was walked for a total of 21 minutes total. I am happy to give the data to the owners.
I adopted my pug from Tina's Pugs & Pals 7 yrs ago. She had her rescue housed at her SunRun Kennels. I bring him back to Sunrun whenever we need to board him or for doggy daycare. He loves Tina and her staff. He always comes home a happy camper! Tina treats all the dogs as if they were her own! Wouldn't go anywhere else!
Wonderful! We were fortunate to discover this kennel only a week after we moved to California. Tina took our two dogs in on short notice while the moving truck was coming. The dogs were so happy the second day!
SunRun and Tina have been a godsend to my dogs and me. I have a very reactive, nervous pit mix that would be so anxious whenever we traveled that he would poop blood regardless of the boarder we tried. Tina took him in, gave him confidence, and my dog ended up loving SunRun, thanks Tina!
We have been using Sun Run for over 20 years with 3 different dogs. My dog is a very excited the minute we turn down the street. The owner is super friendly and caring. We feel very comfortable leaving our family member pet in their care. They take safety, health, and comfort of your pet serious.
I have been a customer for years. My pugs are seniors and they love it there! It's like their second home and we can trust the owner with all medications. Pinky is disabled and needs a special care as well. I wouldn't take them anywhere else.....
We have been going to Sunrun for 7 years. There is no one I trust more with my dogs than Tina.
We've taken our dog here for almost 2 years and we love it. The staff is professional and kind. They grow to know your dog and what is best for her while under their care. We trust them with our dog completely.
Neighbor here, are these dogs left outside in the cold?? I feel bad because i hear them, cry, bark, and howl. Then i always hear a man yelling at the dogs "BE QUIET" and im like dang, their dogs. And are the other 2 places part of this place??
My boy Bert LOVES Sunrun Kennels. It is his home away from home!
Also a neighbor... as the other reviewer mentioned, these dogs are left out with no attention all day. i can hear them bark, cry, and howl non-stop for hours on end. seems like no one is paying attention to them if they are just being ignored like that all day every day!!!
We absolutely love Bark Collective! Our golden retriever goes here for training, pack walks, baths, and daycare, and it’s been an incredible experience. We met with Jillian for a private training session, and she was amazing—patient, knowledgeable, and so great with our little guy. I spent a lot of time searching for a daycare that not only truly cares about the dogs but is also super convenient, with a shuttle service and flexible, last-minute bookings. This place is hands down the best in Orange County! Highly recommend for anyone looking for top-notch care for their pup!
Bark Collective in Newport Beach has been an absolute game-changer for me and my dog, Olive. She’s a sweet but nervous/shy girl who takes a bit to open up, yet loves people and other dogs. I hadn’t found a place that felt quite right for her—until now. I discovered Bark Collective when I saw one of their shuttles during a walk in my neighborhood, and from that moment, everything changed for the better. The staff at Bark Collective are nothing short of exceptional. They are truly warm, patient, and incredibly kind-hearted people who immediately made both Olive and me feel at ease. Their love for dogs radiates in everything they do, and I could instantly tell that Olive was in the best hands possible. The facility is spotless—truly immaculate—and every single dog I’ve seen coming or going looks happy, well cared for, and stress-free. I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am for Bark Collective. They’ve given me such peace of mind, and knowing Olive is cared for by people who genuinely love what they do is priceless. We are so lucky to have found this gem of a place, and I wouldn’t trust my shy, slow-to-open-up girl anywhere else. If you’re looking for a place where your dog will be loved, cared for, and treated like family, Bark Collective is it. They are beyond exceptional—100/10, and there’s truly nothing else like it! Thanks Bark Collective, so happy to be a part of your pack truly!!
It took us a few tries to find the right spot for our hyper one year old puppy and we couldn't be happier with her experience at Bark Collective! Every week, she eagerly anticipates her time there, and it's heartwarming to see how much she enjoys playing with other dogs and interacting with the staff. They even celebrated her 1st birthday which meant the world to us. We just started training with Piper, and the support we've received has been invaluable. The trainers are knowledgeable and encouraging, making us feel confident in our journey with her. It's a joy to watch Piper learn and grow, and we're excited for what's to come. Overall, the daycare and training experience have been a perfect fit for us, and we're so grateful for the community we're becoming a part of!
I recently took my toy Australian shepherds, Batman and Bowser, to The Bark Collective for training, and it has been a fantastic experience. The staff is not only knowledgeable but also incredibly attentive and friendly. They create a welcoming environment that both dogs and owners appreciate. The training methods used are effective and easy to follow, making the learning process enjoyable for both me and my dogs. I’ve noticed significant improvements in Batman and Bowser’s behavior and responsiveness. It’s clear that the staff genuinely cares about the dogs and their progress. Overall, I highly recommend The Bark Collective for anyone looking to train their pets. The combination of expert guidance and a positive atmosphere has made this a valuable experience for us. Batman and Bowser love the staff, and I can see how much they thrive in this supportive environment.
Love Bark Collective. My dog Pepper loves it too. She knows when we arrive and always comes home happy and feeling safe. That means everything to be able to have a place to take her with all her energy and she is loved and watched after so well while she is there. Thanks for providing such a clean and safe place away from home for our pups.
i took my rosie girl here for daycare and as i was leaving and the owner came out to tell me what a smart dog i had and suggested we do a lesson with her. they've helped me so much teach her how to properly walk on a leash! i feel so welcome when i walk in and they all love my rosie. it's also beautiful aesthetic and i wish my home looked this pretty! i'm a big bark collective fan!
I highly recommend anyone who has a dog to join the Bark Collective family! The facility is spotless, the trainers are professional and knowledgeable but most importantly they love our dogs and take special care of them. Layla loves her pack walks and all the new friends she’s met!
Bark Collective is THE BEST! Jillian & Dan are AMAZING & they do a great job hiring terrific employees too! Our pup has been doing weekly pack walks with them for many years & he looks forward to them each week. Enzo sits by the front window excitedly waiting to be picked up & he comes home happy and exhausted. Everything they offer - from training & adventure pack walks to day care & boarding in their phenomenal facility - is top notch! We LOVE Bark Collective and are SO grateful for them! We cannot recommend them highly enough!!!
I toured a few places before finding Bark Collective. I am so happy I kept looking! Their space is beautiful & clean. Everyone is warm & welcoming. We love receiving photos while he’s at daycare. Thank you for making us feel like our pup is loved & cared for while he’s at Bark Collective !
We started taking our pet here a few months ago, and it has been great so far. The staff is kind and helpful, sweet to our pet and sends daily photo updates to us. We have used the training services and day care, and we already see lots of improvements in our pet and her behavior. She comes home tired and happy!
Mark is an amazing dog trainer and he always took excellent care of our two dogs. We've moved away since but wish we still lived nearby so he could watch our pups! Highly recommend him for anyone looking for dog care with an attentive caretaker. He just *gets* dogs. It's honestly incredible.
This is a wonderful place to take your fur baby! This family truly loves dogs. They are genuine, very smart, loving people! I honestly feel incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to get my puppy established with the family here. He is always so excited when we arrive. He gets just as excited to see Mark and Gina as he does when he sees me! Lol! Seeing that makes my heart smile. The positive reviews here are definitely legit. This is a wonderful place to take your pup.
Mark, Gina and their team are AWESOME. I know anytime I leave my dog with them that she is safe and is great hands :) I can go on a long 2 week trip and not worry for a second. They are extraordinarily knowledgable. My dog always leaves The Puppy Playhouse tired, happy and better behaved than when I left her.
It was our dog Kirby's first time at Puppy Playhouse and it was a great experience! The people who work there really love dogs and put extra attention to make sure your dog feels comfortable and has fun. It's loud inside with a lot of dogs who bark when someone new walks in, but don't let that steer you away. Great service and good price as well!
Love love LOVE Puppy Playhouse and so does our dog Ziggy! I take her here whenever I have work in the area and we've been coming since she was 6 months old. The owners and workers really seem to love working with the dogs and I especially get a kick out of the living room vibe of the playroom. They offer walks as extras along with their day care for a few extra bucks = so worth it. Newport Beach and Costa Mesa have a bunch of doggy day care options, the community lives for their pups. The Puppy Playhouse is my fav because I trust the humans, it's location is convenient and Ziggy loses it every time she realizes where we are and forgets all about me (not gonna lie, it hurts for a bit, but then I remember she's a dog).
What a great place to be a dog! The Puppy Playhouse is a Dog Care where dogs can have a nice time playing with other dogs while their humans are on vacation. Mark, the owner, knew we were looking for a rescue after recently losing our two fur babies. He told us he had a little Maltipoo that he took from a shelter that needed a home. We went to meet him and see if he was a fit. He told us the story of the dog and how long and hard he worked with him to rehabilitate him. We took a chance on him and OVERNIGHT he became part of our family. He’s a happy dog. We love him! Thank you Mark for your love and dedication to these sweet souls. They need a second chance. Mark, Gina and Kelsey have a great home there. All the dogs are so friendly and get along! Great place to leave them when you go away. They will be so well taken care of. It’s a family. Can’t thank you guys enough! 🐶
My year and a half old pup had the best time again yesterday at the Puppy Playhouse. He was so happy to see me, and from the moment we left he was out. He had a good report card and we didn't have to worry about him getting into mischief in the evening. He was also very tired this morning. I love the staff, facility and how great of a time he has while he is there.
I Love Love Love this place! My pup, Finn is a very high energy dog and he is always tired and well excercised when I pick him up. One of the things I just Love about the Puppy Play house is they offer walks during Finns day and they also teach him obedience skills. His behavior has improved so much from spending time here. I know Finn is well taken care of while I'm at work and I don't have to worry about him. He's getting great socialization and is around a fantastic bunch of people who truly love dogs and love what they do. So happy to have found this wonderful place!
I've been bringing my boxer pup here for at least 6 months now and she absolutely loves it! She has a great group of pup friends she looks forward to seeing and when she stays overnight, she's cuddled and treated like family. Her temperament also improved significantly within the first few weeks of coming here and she listens so much better! I refer all my friends to Puppy Playhouse
Mark is great! My pup absolutely loves coming here. I love the extended hours. I arrive just before the door opens and Mark comes out to greet us. He offers useful advice and always let's me know how my growing pup is getting along when I pick her up.
We loved being able to leave our dog here during our vacation! They took good care of Winston and would send us photos of him throughout our trip. We were able to check up on him through the cameras as well. We definitely will bring him back again! We are very happy with our experience here!
I am incredibly happy to have found HomeAway From Home! Due to work, we had to leave the country for 19 days, which ended up being extended to 24 days midway through the trip. I was very anxious about leaving our two Belgian Malinois for such a long time, but the staff here made the experience so much easier. The drop off was incredibly easy and resassuring - we were even given an opportunity to view the facility (with my dogs) and ask any questions. They kept me updated regularly with texts and videos, and the live streaming option allowed me to check in on my dogs whenever I missed them, which was a huge comfort. Sometimes when I checked the app I would catch a glimpse of them running after balls staff would throw for them or just sunbathing in the yard :) It's clear that the entire team truly cares for each dog in their care, and they have a real passion for what they do. Hearing stories about other pets boarding there, you can tell they all genuinely love their job. Our two dogs are quite a handful—one likes to challenge other dogs, while the other is usually very timid—yet they made sure both of them were comfortable and well cared for, taking each dog's personality into account. The runs were spacious enough to accommodate our two full-grown Malinois in one kennel without any issues. We also added a bath at the end of their stay, which was the best decision! When I picked them up, they were happy, playful, and smelled amazing after their grooming. I will definitely continue to bring my dogs here for boarding and day trips. HomeAway From Home has truly earned my trust, and I couldn’t be more grateful!
Leo had a great time boarding at Home Away From Home! The facility is clean and well maintained, the manager on site was very knowledgeable and friendly. I was able to view videos of Leo enjoying himself on their live feed. I would highly recommend Home Away From Home the next time you can't bring your dog with you on vacation with you
Excellent service and everyone was easy to work with. Will highly recommend.
Home Away from Home is THE best!!!
Great experience for our puppy and for us! We will definitely use their boarding services again and now considering using them for weekly play days. Clean, great staff. Our dog is even well behaved now!
I dropped my puppy off yesterday for her evaluation meeting. Fortunately Maggie passed the test. The staff is very kind and professional. I look forward to bring Maggie back for some "Doggy Daycare".
I love the Bone Adventure. My two small dogs specifically utilized the Bone Home and do very well there. The staff is great, scheduling is easy, and the price is reasonable for the value!
My dog loves it here! She is so happy and sleepy when she comes home. The staff is very helpful and gives great notes and feedback after every visit. The webcams are so fun too
The staff is very informative and friendly. They go through all the parts and pieces of the business and are very transparent of what they experience with your dog. Facility is well equipped and clean. All the dogs look so happy!
Was planning a road trip to California from Colorado. The resort I was meeting my family at didn't allow dogs, so I sought out a place to board my pup. The staff at The Bone Adventure was fantastic to work with! They made the process easy. When I brought my dog for her test run day, the staff was great with giving me a tour of the facilities & explaining the set up for dogs being boarded there. My dog had a fantastic time the three nights she spent there! Added bonus...being able to check out how she was doing via access to their video footage! Great experience & thanks for taking such good care of my little lady!
Great place for dogs. Friendly staff really unique. Even has swim.team! Like Disneyland for dogs:)
Little pricey but you do get what you pay for :) Cameras, the staff know your pup, and they provide some updates at the end of the day on how your pup did during checkout. Full time attention to the pack throughout the day. Pickup and drop off are incredibly easy which is the icing on the cake for us
My puppy had a UTI and needed a last minute sanitary trim to help keep everything clean down there. It took less than 5 minutes and was a great price! Me and my pup are already looking forward to our next visit!
My dog stayed there for 2 days for a first time visit. He was returned home exhausted and didn’t even seem like the same dog. He avoided me and didn’t want to interact with me which was really unusual . After returning home He slept all day and ate ravenously for 2 days straight then gradually returned to his old playful affectionate self again. My only conclusion was that the experience was a shock to him, and he exhausted himself playing all day for 2 days straight. I can’t tell if he enjoyed himself or not. But I would try it again to see if he gets used to it or if he comes back weird and not like himself again. The staff was nice . They told me that sometimes this happens after a first time visit .
I have worked in the pet industry myself for close to 10 years and this has been one of my favorite places. Owners have been very accommodating and flexible with my needs. My dog comes home tired and happy from daycare. They have been helping with my dog’s jumping too, which I have found many daycares allow and make the problem worse but she’s been getting better since coming here. They really do go above and beyond here. They are some of the nicest people, too. Great communication. Would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for dog care in this area. Would give them more than 5 stars if I could
They are friendly but not professional here. The last time I dropped of my dog for the weekend I returned to find that he had a ton of dog food left which is fairly uncommon even when staying at a boarding location. The owner informed me that his family went on a camping trip that same weekend so I can only assume that my dog was just not fed.. The first time I brought my dog here was great (professionalism aside) but this last visit makes me wary.
Bob and his family do a great job! My 5-month-old puppy was a very nervous pup after a bad experience at another facility. Bob took his time with her and slowly exposed her to more and more dogs. Bob also gave some great advice for training as well.
We have been taking our dogs here for over 11 years. Both we and our dogs appreciate the loving care and supervision that the team at the Dog Park Inn provide. They will treat your dog as if it were theirs! The Kelleher Family
Wonderful place to leave our precious pup either for the day or for 10 days. They take great care and are a wonderful family owned and operated business
Came in from Colorado with our two Siberian Huskies. They enjoyed their day hanging around the dog park inn. This is the spot Fido wants to be!
This is a wonderful place our Hank, He loves playing with all the other dogs I highly recommend & trust Hank will be well taken care of.
Bob is very knowledgeable and friendly. He was great with my 2 rescue dogs.
I like how easy they are to work with. Easy drop off, easy pick up.
Wonderful people who love and take care of your dog while you are away.
