Matt from Pawfection told me he refers all his clients to her who are looking for longer pet sitting, and no one has come back disappointed. Overall impression: I cannot speak more highly of Kimberley and Bowser's Buddy Pet Care! She was extremely professional and accommodating and made me feel like part of the Bowser's family from day one! More details: Kimberley is the epitome of professionalism. I really appreciated how she: - validated my sad feelings that I couldn't take him on the trip - had me over the weekend before my trip to see her space and meet the other dogs she was currently taking care of - was in constant contact about times/dates and how my dog Reeses was doing while I was gone - communicated (quickly) with me whenever I sent her a text message or gave her a call - loves my dog like her own (and he loves her back!) Pro-tip: Kim's place is dog HEAVEN. Very dog-friendly and lots of things to keep them entertained and comfortable: doggy door, fenced-in grassy yard, orthopedic beds, etc. etc. She doesn't give discounts, but it's totally worth the price, and that's coming from a med student in tons of debt currently!

We have four Ragdolls and used Ed and Alexandra for about two and a half years any time we were going on vacation. It is so clear from our interactions with Ed that he loves animals, and our cats also grew fond of him. He always sent pictures and was extremely thorough detailing what was done during the visits and keeping us updated. We even had an instance where we needed him to assist with a virtual vet consult while we were away and one of our pets got sick, so they really went above and beyond. Rest assured that you can trust Ed and Alexandra with your pets and your home!

I have used 4 Paws for about a year, and I have received quality service every time. Danielle, Bianca, and Tiffany pay extra attention to feeding instructions. I love their "right at home" philosophy that works great for my indoor pups. We tried the other large business pup boarding warehouses, which subjected our Schmoogies and Mae Mae to cold concrete walls and floors, and limited daylight. They would often return to us shaking and anxious. I don't have to worry about that with 4 Paws. Our babies return to us smiling, relaxed, rejuvenated, as if we never spent a day apart.

This must be the best off-leash service that includes pick up, drop off and clean up in the bay area. Great things about Danny's services: - Flexibility - He will text me when he is 15 mins away, so I can get Tele ready. - Including pick up, drop off and clean up - Highly recommend for high energy pup - He CARES about your dog If you are on the waitlist, it WORTH to wait because this is the must have service for your pup .

Danny takes care of every dog in his group like his own, with individual attention for their exercise, wellbeing and pack bonding behavior. He usually picks Julius up in the morning, and after a full day at the beach drops him off late afternoon. Particular attention is also paid to limiting the group size for space and specialized monitoring. What we particularly love about Danny's service is his flexibility for scheduling, timely text communication, personable attitude, and his real interest in pet care. This is definitely a must-have service if you can get on the waitlist!

We needed a flexible, professional provider *pronto* and we combed through quite a few options before finding Craig and Bow Wow Ranch. We are so, so happy we did. Craig takes our Vizsla out to Bow Wow Ranch 3x/week. Our pup races to the door as soon as he hears Craig's truck pull up, and he comes home happy and absolutely wiped--we're talking returning home to out for the evening in under five minutes. For anyone unfamiliar with the breed, they're pointers with a famously inexhaustible energy source, and it's an incredibly impressive feat. On the human side, you couldn't hope for a better pup provider. Craig is the utmost professional; he's friendly, flexible, super responsive, and takes a lot of care and pride in his business. He notices when something looks off (intro'd a new food), offers suggestions for training (excited maniac on leash), connects us with other dog owners (for puppy play dates), and sends fantastic and often hilarious update pics (for our piece of mind and entertainment). We're thrilled with Craig and Bow Wow Ranch and you will be, too.

Daniela is the kind of pet sitter you pray you'll find!…read more I left town and Daniela took care of my 13-year-old cat, and I honestly don't know what I would have done without her. My cat has been going through a rough medical situation and stopped eating, and Daniela didn't just "check in" -- she showed up. When my cat refused food, Daniela got creative in ways I never would have thought of. I could tell she was genuinely upset when my cat wouldn't take her meds. It wasn't just a job to her -- she was emotionally invested in my cat getting better. What blew me away is that she went above and beyond the pet care. I never once asked her to, but she noticed my plants were looking droopy and watered them. I came home to a cat who had been truly cared for, and living plants. She treated my cat like her own, and if you have a pet, she's the person you want in your corner. I'm already booking her for every future trip. Thank you, Daniela, for being so kind and so capable. Five stars isn't enough!!!!

And finally - she was great at communicating with us during his appointment. She sent us pictures, and also gave a heads up when she was almost done. We really appreciated that.

We joke…read morethat we're one of the "OGs" because we've been with Yesi since the very beginning--back when she was caring for pups through Rover, long before Lucky Buddies grew into the incredible daycare it is today. Watching Lucky Buddies grow has been such a joy, but what amazes me most is that their heart has never changed. Even as they've expanded, every dog is still treated like family. Teddy has been loved, cared for, and celebrated every step of the way, and there isn't a single person on the Lucky Buddies team that I wouldn't trust with him. They've truly become part of our village. From daycare and baths to transportation, check-ins, and walks, they've made life so much easier over the years. But beyond the services, it's the peace of mind that means the most. I never have to wonder if Teddy is safe, loved, or happy--I know he is. As I prepare to move away, one of the hardest things to leave behind is Lucky Buddies. I honestly don't know how I'll ever find another place like them. They've set the standard for what exceptional dog care looks like, and I will forever be grateful for the love they've poured into Teddy over the past six years. Thank you, Yesi, and the entire Lucky Buddies team, for loving Teddy as if he were your own. It truly takes a village to raise a pup, and I don't know how I would've done these last six years without ours.

I've never had enough good things to say about Lucky Buddies…read more Our dog has been attending their daycare and boarding programs for over a year now. As a rescue, she struggles with separation anxiety, is fearful of new people, and is still a work in progress with her training. Finding a place where she feels safe and loved has meant everything to us. From Juan and Yesica to the entire team, everyone at Lucky Buddies takes exceptional care of our dog every time she visits. Their genuine love for the dogs is evident in the way they interact with and care for them. They know each dog's personality, treat them like family, and it's clear the dogs adore them in return. We also boarded Snowy at Lucky Buddies while we traveled out of the country. It was the first time I had ever been away from her for an extended period, and I was incredibly anxious. The team was so understanding and compassionate. They took amazing care of Snowy and sent me daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Hands down, this has been the best daycare and boarding experience we could have asked for. We trust the Lucky Buddies team completely, and we're so grateful to have found them. Thank you, Lucky Buddies
