Pet Sitters in Lakeview

My 3 dogs have been staying here for the past several years when I go out of town. We love it.

An absolute pleasure to leave our fur babies with. Very Professional and Respectful and truly reliable. We received text messages and pictures of our babies every day to show how they were doing and adjusting. They were even bathe when we picked them up after a week 👍🏾. I would highly recommend this pet sitting service, as we plan to use them again when we go on vacation. Thank you for your A++++ service!

Inês is the Best !! We went on a long weekend Out and we couldn’t be more pleased with her. She took great care of our fur babies and we loved the daily reports with pictures. We’re so thankful and we recommend Ines to everyone.

Ines is the absolute BEST! She is extremely professional and thorough. After the meet and greet I knew our animals were going to be in great hands. We were gone for 2 weeks, and every day we received pictures and videos of her caring/playing with all our fur babies. She goes above and beyond when she takes care of your pets. I highly recommend Ines if you're looking for someone to care for your furry family members. I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else but her.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ines Miller for taking care of my 17 year old cat named Lilly... This is my second time having Ines come to my home to take care of my sweet baby. I never had to worry or be concerned as she always sent me photo's and text me twice a day on her visits. She is reliable and loving which shows in her process of taking care of you pet. I will always use her pet care service and recommend anyone looking to leave you family pet when going away on vacation or just going for a overnight stay. Thank you. Mark Thomas

Ines is the best Petsitter I’ve used over the years. She is very responsive, reliable and took photos and videos of my bird which made me feel at ease leaving a young bird in her care. The cage was spotless and the outside plants were watered. Ines went above and beyond to provide excellent pet care. I highly recommend Ines and will definitely be booking her services whenever I travel. A job well done!!!!

Great service! Ines came to my house and cared for my 4 dogs. She feeds them, cleans up after them, gives meds, and plays with them. Every time she comes to the house she texts an update and sends pics! I didn’t have to worry at all about my babies!

She was awesome. My fur babies and my home were well taken care of while I was out of town. I received photos and video everyday putting my mind at ease. I highly recommend Menifee Pet Sitting and will definitely use again.

What, oh what can I say about her pet sitting business!!! She is an absolutely lovely woman. I never, ever fear leaving my dog with Inez. Mick goes nuts when the car turns off the Main Street and heads into her neighborhood!!! I can’t control him on his leash.....he just loves Inez, her 🏡 and her other pets she takes care of!!!! I am not sure how she does it all. Mick (our Maltese) would surely rather live with her!!! She also takes care of pets in their own homes daily when their owners are at work. Really not sure how she feeds, walks, plays with all these pets. I can NOT recommend Inez high enough. I will just let my dog, Mick, give the recommendation!!!🦮🐶🦴🦴💕💕

From the day we meet Ines, both my husband & I knew she was a perfect fit to watch our Booboo kitty while we were out of town. Ines sent us messages of how kitty was doing along with pictures. We will definitely be using her services next time we go out of town and need a sitter for our little guy.

I had never left my two 6 yr old cockatiels with anyone before, let alone for 12 days! They are super social and out of the cage whenever we’re home. They also experience night frights sometimes and will literally beat themselves bloody unless calmed by someone. So I was reluctant to leave them in anyone’s hands. Ines did a meet and greet with us and the birds a couple weeks before we left them. I knew from her demeanor at that meeting, my birds would be in the best possible care. And they were! Ines sent me videos and daily updates. I don’t think they wanted to leave “bird camp”! Lol 😆 Ines is remarkable snd very knowledgeable... super organized and she always puts the animals in her care first, I will never hesitate to leave my babies with her again in the future.

I board my Great Dane @Homeland Pet Hotel last month for a week, it’s our second time taking our Great Dane there and we love it. The staff are very friendly and we know they’ll take good care of our Dane. The price is good too.

Our experience at Homeland Pet Hotel was fantastic! The staff is attentive, friendly, and the facility is clean. When we pick him up, he looks well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was happy and in great hands. Highly recommend Homeland Pet Hotel for any pet parent looking for a top-notch doggy hotel.

Fuzzy stayed here for 3 weeks for his first stay ever! He was well taken care of, when I went to pick him up he was so clean, happy, and doing very well. I did call in to check on the little guy a few times and everything sounded great! Also afforable prices!

I began boarding my dogs at Homeland Pet Hotel last fall when I had to go out of town for a funeral. At that time, we had three dogs. One was 13, one was 4 and one was 1. I called several facilities and none wanted to board our 13 year old. Although he was not on medication or special diet, they were afraid to care for him due to his age. Al at Homeland accepted all our dogs. He asked for their vets name and the maximum we’d reimburse them in event of an emergency. We asked for a pre-boarding tour and was welcome to visit during business hours. We saw a facility with many secure chain link kennels. There is a separate exercise area. They take dogs out alone or in their family pack. The place is kept clean and no unpleasant smells were detected. There is a separate room for small dogs and another for cats. In the main section medium to large dogs are boarded in appropriate sized kennels. Overall, the service is excellent. It’s the first place we’ve boarded our dogs where they are eager to go to. So far, we’ve boarded our dogs on four separate occasions and our doggies leave happy each time.

Have boarded our single dog here probably a dozen tines in the last 2ish years, always comes home smelling nice and well-cared for. We recently adopted a second dog, and I picked them both up today after a 2-week stay. They both look excellent, were very happy and aren't too stinky, even after being there 2 weeks. The folks who work there are friendly and competent, we've never had any issues and would recommend them to anyone who needs to board their pet. Pic is on the car ride home today, she's smiling😍

The first time I ever boarded my two dogs, I was so nervous. My 14 year old had never been away before. That was 3 years ago. They have gone to Homeland Pet Hotel maybe 10 times since. They actually are excited to be there. Staff is very caring. Kennels are spotless. But the fact that Bo and Guinness are happy there means everything.

We've left our pups with Homeland Pet Hotel many times when we're away on trips. They have always provided safe and loving care for our kiddos. Great people! Thanks!

We recently boarded our Labrador and German Shorthaired Pointer at Homeland Pet Hotel for a week, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. The staff took excellent care of our active dogs, ensuring they were well-exercised and happy. When I called to check in, they were friendly and provided thorough updates on how our dogs were doing. The prices are reasonable, and the resort itself is beautiful and well-maintained. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend Homeland Pet Hotel to other pet owners!

I’ve taken my GoldenDoodle here a couple times, he seems to like it. Friendly staff, flexible and reasonable rates. Will definitely be using them for all my trips when i can’t bring my fur baby

Our dog Zoe loved the place and the staff is amazing. Kind and gentle. This is our go to pet hotel.

Judy is the sweetest lady and takes amazing care of my senior German shepherd mix and has saved me life a few times by being able to come over to my house last minute. She is the only person I trust coming into my house without my permission with my sweet baby! She will make sure your fur baby is well taken care of!

I was so relief when I found Judy to take care my 3 cats. She's friendly and knowledgeable about cat. I'm very happy with her service. I highly recommend her.

Although our plans changed, the process of booking pet-sitting with Judy was a complete breeze. Our family was so impressed with Judy's professionalism, friendliness, and knowledge of animal care! It's clear for her, your pet's well-being comes first. She was prompt in returning our call and scheduling a meet-and-greet, forthright in discussing her services and the cost, and even had some great advice for our elderly dog. I highly recommend Judy for anyone looking for an honest and trustworthy pet-sitter.

Great service and care for my little one. Good communication and extras, like mail pickup and plant watering.

Judy is amazing! She pet sit our two cats while we were away on our honeymoon, and she did wonderfully! We never had to worry and it was a great relief to have while we were away! We even have her booked for our next upcoming trip! If you're debating it, just call her!! She's a lifesaver.

Judy makes leaving town stess free. She anticipates our and our fur babies needs, is very knowledgeable of all animals and what to do in case of an emergency. This was evident over the phone and we were more impressed upon meeting her. Our kitties love her and most importantly when we are away we are stress free knowing they are in the best hands. It's so amazing to find someone who loves our "kids" as much as we do. We highly recommend her for short or long trips away. She is trusted by many and came highly recommended to us too.

Judy has been taking care of my dogs for many years now We are very happy with her professional service . She takes such great care of our dogs and we feel so at ease when she is with them . The service is professional and we know we are leaving our dogs in good hands . It is a great feeling to be able to go away and keep my dogs home not stressed and us not stressed as well . We love the service and are extremely happy with paw pals and would recommend this service to anyone who needs someone who treats the pets like they are family. Thank you Judy for all you do for us and our pups. Traci and Max G.

Judy did a wonderful job with my very particular poodle. At their first meeting he had an immediate connection with her. She took wonderful care of him and the house while we were gone.It was so reassuring. I would highly recommend!!

Judy has taken care of my dogs for awhile now. I can depend on her to take good care of my dogs and bring in any packages if needed. I was able to have her come over with very short notice during the holidays to take care of the dogs when I wasn’t able to get home and that gave me peace of mind.

Judy is wonderful to work with and she gives extra attention to detail when taking care of my pets. She’s so knowledgeable and kind, a perfect sitter for my doggies. I highly recommend her 💜

We were able to travel knowing that Debbie was taking great care of our chihuahua. It was comforting to get constant updates and pictures of Frida and to see how she was running around in the nice space Debbie has for the dogs she cares for. Definitely recommend Debbie, and we are so thankful to her!

Our pup stayed with Deb for two weeks. Deb was extremely helpful and informative in the booking process which made things less stressful. During the two week stay Deb sent photos and updates to keep us informed. We will definitely use Deb again for future boarding. Thanks Deb!!

When ever we need to leave our dogs we want them to be safe and secure. Our dogs are always well taken care off. I love the space and my dogs enjoy their time too. I don’t feel worry leaving them with Deb which helps me enjoy my trip. Highly recommend.

Debbie took great care of our babies. No hassle at all. She was very informative and explained what we needed to do before we arrived. 100% satisfied and my pitbulls are too 👍 …

This is not just a kennel. It's a home away from home with love and attention for your dog. So much room and out door areas. Last but not least at all is the price. So affordable. Planning to board your doggie? This is the place

Rebecca was recommended to me through local FB groups by multiple people, and I am so happy that I went with her to take care of my fur baby. I have a pitbull puppy, and she is so great with him. He LOVES going to Rebecca's. He gets so excited when we pull up, he knows he's going to get to see his buddies and run around and play. Rebecca is so attentive as well, she always reaches out in case of any concern just to check in with you. She also sends pictures and videos of your pups playing and it makes you feel so much better know they are just having a blast. Rebecca is super flexible and hasn't told me she booked up once, even though she always has a good amount of dogs staying with her when I bring my boy. I love that. I love that my baby gets to socialize and run and play. Rebecca's prices are also super reasonable. I would highly recommend to anyone needing a new pup nanny.

My pup and I absolutely LOVE this place. I have been taking him there for over 2 years now and I couldn't ask for a better sitter. I love the updates, pics, and videos of my baby boy playing with his pals. He gets so excited when he knows we are coming.

Rebecca took excellent care of my fur babies 🐶🐶 💯 recommend Pupcake's Dog Care ! ❤️ …

Rebecca is super nice and took great care of my baby. Highly recommend

She's the best...really know about our baby dogs...the best part she understand us as pitbul owners...

The best second home for your pet while you are away!

I am so grateful to have been referred to Country Ranch Dog Boarding when I unexpectedly needed a place to board my German Shorthaired Pointer. Michele and Tim are incredible, they opened their home on short notice and provided a safe and loving space for my energetic pup’s extended stay. The large play yard, daily walks around the ranch and games of fetch made for one happy dog and the daily photos and updates were very much appreciated. So grateful to have found such kind folks to care for my pup! Update: Two years and many stays later, my GSP, Tilly, still loves Country Dog Ranch! Michele and Tim always take great care of her and she has the best time. The photos and updates are always a bright spot of my day. Still grateful for their kind care for my dog.

Highly recommend this lovely place. They were very welcoming and gave us comfort with all the updates on how our pups were doing. They provide meet and greet to make sure it’s the right fit for you and give you ease if it’s your first time. And I booked for Fourth of July weekend and you know how that is for dogs! They kept them safe and gave them all the comfort they needed to keep their anxiety at bay. They won’t disappoint….I absolutely loved it!

Michele and Tim took amazing care of our two fur babies! I received pictures and updates during their time away from home. You can see how much Tim and Michele love animals and enjoy loving on your babies when you are away! Thank you both so much! We look forward to boarding with you again in the future!!

Our dog enjoyed staying at the Ranch! I liked that she had space to run around and play, as well as the photos sent as updates during her stay. Thanks for taking good care of our pup!

I had a wonderful and positive experience boarding my dog with Michele and Tim. I highly recommend leaving your buddy with them. They will treat them as if your pet was their own.

A SAFE PLACE!! My poor rescue beagle has SEVERE depression making it extremely hard to leave her. Michele has empathy and compassion and most of all patience. I am so extremely grateful!! 10 stars!

Brooklyn had a great time and was well Taken cate of! We appreciate you! Thank you!

Update 2023: we have now sent our Pupps with Michelle & Tim 4 times and are so happy we found them! Our dogs absolutely love their time there and we have loved the experience every single time. Upon pick up the dogs are so happy after a fun filled vacation from home. They get lots of love, exercise and comfort which just puts our minds completely at ease while we are away. We will continue using County Ranch Dog boarding for years to come! Original review - 2022 We had the best experience sending our dogs Harley and Cabo to Michelle and Tim. Our experience in the past with other boarding facilities has been unpleasant so we thought we’d try a different method. Michelle sent us regular photos of our puppies out running around and playing in the little dog cooling pool. We felt confident that our dogs were getting the love and care they needed while we were away! Also they didn’t come back sick like they had in all the other facility they’ve been to! We already are booking Michelle and Tim for our next vacation!!

We were hard pressed to find a dog sitter for our 3 kids. We met with Michele, brought the dogs to meet her too. She took fantastic care of them. Dogs had a great time. We loved receiving photos of them having fun. Highly recommend.

I was looking for a place where my sasha would feel at home. This place definitely was what I was looking for. I was tired of other boarding places that keep dogs in a small confined space with little space to roam

I recommend Kristy 10000%!!! My pup doesn’t do well with boarding so I opted to have him stay home and have Kristy come in a few times a day for feeding, walking etc. She kept me updated with messages & photos the whole week. He doesn’t do well with strangers but he loved her. Thank you Kristy!!!

I needed a pet sitter last minuet and thankfully Kristy had an opening when I needed it. She came referred from a friend but her reviews speak for themselves. I have a 6 month old puppy and she'd never stayed anywhere else, needless to say I was nervous. We met Kristy beforehand and I saw how well she ran things, I was super content in leaving our furbaby. She had great communication, gave me updates if I needed them and the best part my puppy got the socialization she needed. I was super pleased with her care that she's already booked for another visit!!

Kristy is the best dog sitter you can find. There is no one as caring and hands-on as she is. We had her take care of our shy girl for 3 days and everything was perfect. She even posts on her Instagram page when you're away so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. We'll keep using Kristy for all of our pet sitting needs!

Kristy has been my number-one dog sitter for at least 10 years. She has many years of experience, and I feel like I am leaving my pets in my own care when I have her come to stay while I go away. All of my animals love her. Her attention to each one of them is outstanding. She is good at delivering medications and doing everything that needs to be done. She has excellent skill in taking care of senior dogs and fragile baby animals as well. I have been very blessed to have found Kristy, and I know that God is with her when she takes care of my animals.

Kristy is an excellent -- outstanding "go to" babysitter for our animal family members. She goes above and beyond to make each cat n dog happy. Kristy is reliable and even sends updates with pictures! She is also a very nice lady to humans too.

Kristy is amazing with our puppy, she genuinely cares about the animals she works with, and is highly knowledgeable and experienced. We've used Kristy multiple times for overnights. I highly recommend Kristy's TLC to care for your pet, you will not be disappointed.

I can see why she has solid 5 stars on every website. Her years of experience shine in the way she conducts her business. Extremely professional yet very down to earth, warm, and friendly. We had drop-in care for our cats for a few days. She did everything we needed plus communicated with us daily. She will work with your requirements and give you a fair price. She even accommodated a last-minute request while we were away. We feel like we could truly trust Kristy with anything, and our future vacations will have us using her business again without hesitation.

Kristy has been our pet sitter for over 5 years now in Riverside. She is an outstanding animal caregiver and always does an excellent job. She is 100% reliable and we are blessed to feel totally comfortable going on vacation or having long days at work knowing she will always take wonderful care of our babies.

Kristy, has been caring for my dog Cali (42 lbs plott-hound) mix for about 6 months now. Kristy has been very accommodating, she cares for Cali 3 days a week. I am really happy w the care she has given to Cali and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker in the area.

Kristy is so sweet & did a wonderful job caring for my 4 year old pom-malti poo, Hachi! We haven't been on a family vacation in years, so it was his very first time pet boarding. Prior to the trip, we met up with Kristy which helped ease any nerves. She answered all of my questions & I filled out a form that she provided to ensure that Hachi would receive all the proper care. Kristy sent daily videos/photos of him - making fur friends, going on dog walks & hanging out in the big backyard! It was so comforting to know how much Hachi enjoyed his stay. Just like our family went on vacation, he was on his own little vacation too! Thank you Kristy for your kindness & for taking such good care of my little boy. We will definitely be back!

Janice takes great care of our fur babies . She has had them an extended amount of time because of a plumbing leak. She is also the best priced dog boarder I have come across . She provides bathing for extra cost but well below what competitors charge . She provided a safe and happy environment for the dogs with lots of open communication and pictures! I will definitely keep using Janice in the future !

Me and my babies, yes, 3 babies. We all love, love this place, and Janice is the best ever! A true dog whisperer! Thank you, Janice, for all you love and care.

great dog daycare

Liz and her team are just THE best. They will treat your little ones like their own. As new clients and new to doggy daycare we thought it would be hard for everyone, due to our pups 🐶 never really being around any other dogs let alone spending the night at a home away from home. Liz made this nerve racking event go so smooth and to say the least our pups love going to her home and no longer feeling like we are abandoning them because they know when a home is full of love and they will be gentle cared for. She is bilingual, great doggie sitter, plenty of room for pets to play and pleasant atmosphere.

Our sweet baby went to stay with Liz for a week. He was so happy and I got daily updates and pictures. There’s nothing like leaving your baby and just knowing they’ll be loved. Thank you, Liz. Your care and love for Scout is more than I could have possibly hoped for. Highly recommend 🙂‍↔️ …

We moved from Temecula to Menifee. We had to stay in a hotel for two weeks. We did not want to leave our little Mahina in the hotel. Our little girl Mahina, had never been in Doggy Care before. We were very careful as to who we were going to choose to care for our Mahina. She is a 3 year old, 12 pound Shihpoo. After careful research, we found Melvin’s Pet Care. Our first visit we were greeted in person by Liz and her sweet daughter Emma. Instantly I/we knew that this was the right place for Mahina. Mahina was a bit of a naughty girl with Liz in the beginning. But with Liz’s and Emma’s kindness, care and love, Mahina became adjusted to her new environment and new furry friends. Mahina was spoiled with Liz’s love. She took her for daily walks 3 times a day and sent us daily updates about Mahina's day along with videos too. This added to my peace of mind. If you are looking for someone you can trust with your fur baby we have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Melvin’s Pet Care. We and Mahina are looking forward to drop in care in the future.

Liz is wonderful, she is very professional. Every direction left for the care of my dog was followed. My pet gets home sick when he is in other homes, therefore we need someone to come and care for him at home when we travel. She came and took care of him in the mornings and in the evenings. You can ask to be send updates for each visit or once a day. She would also send me pictures of my pet as updates, which makes being away from him a little less worrisome. I am really satisfied with her pet care service. She loves what she does and it shows as my dog loves having her around. I have referred Melvin Pet Care to an acquainted. They send their dog to board with Melvin Pet Care, and have Liz visit their cat at home too. They have reported their complete satisfaction with the service. From my experience and the experience of my acquainted, I can truly recommend Melvin Pet Care if you are traveling or just need extra help in taking care of your pets.

We really love Melvin Pet Care. They are a caring location. We were worried about leaving our puppy for the first time. They provided pictures showing us our puppy was happy. When we returned our puppy appeared happy. We took our puppy for a second time and when we arrived the puppy seemed to feel comfortable with the surroundings. We are so happy we found Melvin Pet Care. Thank you!!!

Liz has been watching our Kona for almost a year now. She's always been very communicative, trustworthy, and dependable. I love the way she treats Kona like her own. We're very lucky to have found her.

Our dog LOVE her, and she is very attentive and loving to our frenchie. She is prompt, flexible, friendly, has excellent communication and is overall a delight. I STRONGLY recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to walk or care for their fur babies.Layla enjoyed her vacation to the fullest ❤️

Lizeth took great care of my fur babies while I was in the Philippines for two weeks. She always went out of her way to send me updates and pictures of them. I highly recommend and trust her. Look forward to using her as a pet sitter again. Thank you, Melvin Pet Care! You’re the best Lizeth!

An absolute pleasure to leave our baby with Liz. Very Professional, Respectful and truly reliable. We received text messages and pictures of our baby every day. I highly recommend Melvin Pet Care.

Our experience has been wonderful. Our little Maddie comes home so happy. Melvin pet care is very compassionate and dedicated to the animals they care for.

My husband and I recently went on a vacation, leaving our 2-year-old Labrador retriever behind for the first time. Finding the right boarding facility was crucial, as we wanted to ensure our fur baby would receive the care, love, and attention she’s accustomed to. After extensive research, we chose Briarcliff Pet Resort & Chateau Briarcliff, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. From the start, the Facility Manger, Juliet, made a lasting impression with her warmth and patience. She addressed all my questions thoroughly and made me feel completely at ease. By the end of our conversation, I felt like we had known each other for years. Our visit to the facility confirmed our choice. Juliet and Dave, the Training Director / Doggy Day Supervisor, were welcoming and professional, and the facility itself was spacious, clean, and well-maintained. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, and their care for our fur baby was evident. Throughout our trip, Juliet and Dave kept us updated with photos and videos of our dog, which was incredibly comforting and meant the world to us. The staff at Briarcliff is outstanding—kind, attentive, and responsive. In addition, their website is user-friendly and offers a range of convenient online services. We were so pleased with how well our fur baby was cared for that we’re already planning our next trip and will definitely board her at Chateau Briarcliff again. We highly recommend Briarcliff Pet Resort & Chateau Briarcliff to anyone looking for a reliable and loving boarding facility. Thank you, Juliet, Dave, and the entire Briarcliff team for providing such exceptional care to our fur baby and making our first experience away from her so positive!

Best handling class in So CA. Great training facility with knowledgeable accomplished dog savvy instruction. Showed trained my last pup here, debuted him and finished him in three weekends. In the summer I take my dogs here to swim and keep them in condition. My dogs love this place and the wonderful people who work here.

Briarcliff Pet Resort is by far the best boarding option in all of the Inland Empire. I have brought my dogs here for many years now and have nothing but good things to say about this incredible pet resort (it really is a pet resort). One thing that stands out is how clean their facility is. The manager there Juliet, one of the kindest people you'll ever meet, maintains high standards for keeping the resort clean, safe and orderly. Dave who does the training there is also a true professional at his craft. I did his training program with my super high-energy GSD and he taught me control and training techniques that were an absolute game changer. If you're looking for a top-notch, quality boarding and training pet resort, this is your place.

I took My dog to Briarcliff About 3years ago for the first time . He had a great time I was very happy with their services everybody there said they loved my dog. A year after that I took them again and same experience . I am a Disabled Proud Marine And my dog is a Marine Corps dog and has been a godsend to me. Nobody told me anything different. Now I call up and make a reservation and I get a call back from the manager Juliet and she tells me that the last time I brought my dog about 2 years ago she said that my dog was growling at certain attendants and not being cooperative. I never heard anything about this when I took my dog 2 years ago .Nobody said anything. What this lets me know is that they don't have the right people working there and I am glad that Juliet called me and let me know because I do not want to take my dog somewhere that they do not know how to handle dogs . My dog would not hurt a fly and I have had him for 4 years and he has never growled at anybody or anything. Anyway This Proud Marine definitely would not refer Briarcliff to anybody anymore because I obviously have no confidence in their services and I appreciate them Letting me know.

My dogs have always enjoyed their stays at Briarcliff Pet Resort. I found their updated booking system easy to use and appreciate the prompt response whenever I need to reach out for information. The dogs have always returned home in really good conditions and the photos I receive while they’re there are an added bonus. I would definitely recommend this facility to those looking to board their dogs in the Menifee area.

I’ve had my fair share of positive moments here, but unfortunately, the establishment has undergone significant changes. I began bringing my pet here around five years ago. It wasn’t my top choice, but its proximity to my home and reasonable pricing made it a convenient option. However, over time, it seemed as though they were actively trying to deter business. There are obvious staff shortages here, which seem to be confirmed by their, inconvenient operating hours and odd closure days. Could this be why they’ve implemented policies that appear to be designed to discourage customers? For example, many places allow pet owners to administer their own vaccines. I’ve been giving my pet the Bordetella vaccine for years, even documenting it with photos of the labels and bottles. Yet, they insisted that I couldn’t board there if I was handling my own vaccinations. Once things started to normalize post-COVID, I decided to have the vet give the bordetella vaccine. I attempted to schedule boarding for an upcoming vacation, only to be told I was calling too early and couldn’t book outside of a 60-day window. This was incredibly frustrating, as kennels in our area fill up quickly. After planning an expensive international trip, I really wanted the peace of mind of knowing my dog had a place to board. I marked my calendar to call back within the specified time frame. However, months later, when I finally made the call, I was informed that the owner no longer accepts Italian mastiffs at the kennel. I can’t say I was surprised, considering I hadn’t been able to get my dog in for the past few years. Sadly, this often happens when businesses have an abundance of customers… they no longer feel the need to provide real value. It’s disheartening that we were treated this way and then simply discarded. A more sensible management decision might have been to stop accepting NEW Italian mastiffs. Considering the breed’s average lifespan is only about eight years, and they’ve already been accommodating us for five, we could have continued for the next three before being turned away. Now, I will never support this business again, even when I get a different breed.

We boarded our two dogs with Briarcliff this last weekend and they were absolutely wonderful! Very professional and very caring! They took very excellent care of our fur babies! It was our first trip away from them in years and they made us feel very comfortable about the care they received while we were gone. We highly recommend them. The staff member who greeted us when we dropped off and picked up was phenomenal. So glad we found a place like Briarcliff to care for our fur babies when we are in need of a place to board. I can't say enough positive things about our experience.

Fantastic boarding & training facility!!! My dog received the best care & had the best time. I will always bring my dogs here.

My dog loves coming to Briarcliff. The staff are so friendly and always are welcoming to my dog. I am very happy to have found Briarcliff! Will keep coming back for years to come! Love the portal and the photos/videos from pet n plays. 💞 …

I have been bringing my dog here for several months we go a few times a week and Rari absolutely loves it!! She gets so excited as soon as we pull into the long driveway that she does her little happy dance tail wag excited barks all the way to the door. She gets excited when she sees Brittany or Dave never sad when she is dropped off just excited to play with friends. We also took Dave's beginner class completed that then took the advanced/intermediate class. We both learned so much. Very happy with staff here.
