My wife and I travel frequently, and always have a bit of a dilemma with our two cats. We hate to…read morestress our boys with kennels and taking them out of their regular environment. And we hate bothering our neighbors so often to watch our cats. We used Stay At Home Pet services recently, and had a good experience. A few of the caretakers came to our home a week or so prior to our trip to see our pet care routine, ask questions, etc. During our trip, we received text message updates when they arrived and left, often with pictures of our boys. The only hiccup we had was noticing an interior door left open after they left. We let them know and they returned quickly to close it up before our boys got into something they shouldn't have. They have a great online portal for seeing and paying your bill, adding pictures/information about your home and pets. We will definitely continue to use Stay At Home Pet Services.

Their employees clearly love caring for pets. My assigned "Pet Pal" dog walkers all know my dogs personally, as does the owner. Whenever anything has gone awry while I'm away the owner has always called me and managed the issue personally. When one of my dogs had a medical issue while I was out of town, they took him to the urgent care vet and stayed with him the whole time while he got treatment while keeping me updated, then took him back again the next day for his check up. I really appreciate that their "Pet Pals" send an update with photos every time they see the dogs.

Shout out to Red Dog for taking great care of my Annie Oakley. Her tail begins wagging as soon as…read moreshe realizes where we are, often before we even turn off Madison. I appreciate that they thoughtfully separate dogs into sizes and sometimes even styles of play, because Annie may be small but she likes to play rough sometimes. Boarding seems to go over very smoothly as Annie Oakley was excited to come home but didn't have any qualms about going back to Red Dog the next time. I am also reviewing their grooming care, or as much as short hair uses it. They are always accommodating if I call in for a last minute reservation for a day when she is going to be there, and have even squeezed in her nail trim or ear cleaning on a day they were otherwise booked. The staff seems all very friendly and I've never had any bad experiences with them. They use an online portal for booking and that makes it fairly easy to do. The grooming can be difficult to book, so I usually end of calling to ask about real availability. Lastly, you can watch your pup on video, which while I haven't done, I think is a nice touch and provides some transparency in how the dogs are being treated.

The employee at the front desk when I went to check in was very very rude. The process of…read moreregistering your pet is an absolute pain. I took the time to store my credit card info (as required) when I registered my dog for a bath and then got a text asking for a credit card for a $50 deposit to confirm the appointment (a deposit for a bath?! I don't store my credit card anywhere online especially for something this insignificant, but it was required so I complied. Then to get a text after I took the time to do this, asking for my card again was frustrating. I have never had to store a credit card or make a down payment for a dog bath with any other groomer.) The entire process was a pain and the employee I checked in with was rude. I thought I'd give it a try because it's closer to home, but I'd rather drive 30 min each way to our current groomer who is kind, is always happy to see my dog, and doesn't require a down payment for a bath. I will not go back.

We have been taking our dog Benedict to the Pet Spot since he was a puppy, so going on five years…read morenow! We use Pet Spot for daycare, grooming (thank you so much Cat for being the best!!! My sister still drives down from Dayton after moving to get her dogs groomed by Cat), and boarding every now and then. The "floating groom" option is one of our favorites as our dog can run & play in daycare while also getting a full groom, so he's both tired & clean when he comes home. They also host fun events throughout the year where you can get a themed picture of your dog, like Halloween or St. Patrick's day. The staff is always very friendly, accommodating, and some even greet Benedict by name when we walk in the lobby. Seeing 1-star reviews here really surprises me as I know myself and many other repeat customers have had zero issues with the Pet Spot and I would feel confident recommending their services to any dog owner. I would also like to suggest to anyone reading these low reviews to take some highly sensitive pet owner's opinions with a grain of salt. This is an all around GREAT dog care facility with extremely hard-to-beat prices for the area. Seriously people - be realistic. Dogs will smell a little when they get home. The lobby might smell if someone had an accident. It's truly insane to think your dog won't smell a little bit when they come home from boarding/daycare surrounded by other dogs running and playing all day. Expect to bathe them yourselves like a normal person or pay for an exit bath (a service they offer). If you want your pup to never touch dirt or pee then you should keep them at home or shell out the cash for Rover. Just my two cents!

We had a very poor experience with Pet Spot. We recently brought our dog in for a daycare…read moreevaluation. The lobby smelled strongly in the morning when dropping her off, and smelled even worse in the afternoon when we picked her up. When they brought my dog back, she was whining, straining at the leash, and trying to make a beeline for the exit to get out of there asap - this is really strange behavior; my friendly extroverted pup usually wants to personally say goodbye with a wagging tail to everyone when we take her places. I asked the woman at the front desk how things had gone - she shrugged and just said, "looks like she passed." Then she said "didn't you get the email report?" I was confused and said no, I didn't have an email and didn't know what she was talking about. Also I'd literally just picked up my dog, so idk how they could have gotten a report out to me . "You'll get an email," she said confidently and dismissively. I have not received one still. We asked if it was possible to see the facility, since it was our first visit, and she instead showed us cameras from the lobby that "aren't live because the system's broken". So just static blurry photos of empty indoor play yards. We asked about how and where the dogs were able to go out to use the bathroom and she said THEY ALL JUST GO WHEREVER ON THE FLOOR and "they do their best to clean it up". At this point we left. We had to stop on the way home because she was so distressed - my housebroken dog had apparently been holding her bladder and her poop all day. She drank her entire bowl of water the second she got home, so I don't think she was given access to any while at daycare for several hours. She was limping and we have no idea why, because Pet Spot couldn't give us any information about her day. We had to give her a bath that evening because she smelled terrible. On top of all this, she's now developed a rash on her paws and belly as well as an eye infection which have required vet attention. Unsurprising since she was apparently laying around in urine and feces all day. Honestly I couldn't believe how bad of an experience we had - on a first day! - and I feel bad for my poor pup that I ever dropped her off here. Do not use this place.

I've known about Paw Joggers for awhile, but they didn't service Mt. Adams. They've since added on a new "jogger" who is able to service my neighborhood. Paw Joggers is owned by a lovely woman named Billie, whose husband is a Cincinnati K9 officer! Billie and her team are super reliable and professional. After initially contacting them, they'll come to your house for a free Meet & Greet so they can meet your dog(s), go through paperwork and learn about your residence (keys, breaker box location, anything else they might need to know). You can either use the online scheduling tool or email Billie to request service. My walker uses a smartphone app called "Run Keeper" that will send me an email when she's done walking my dogs and shows me a map of the walk or job, the time, distance, average pace, etc. She also will text me a picture of my pups, and give me the details on their walk (#1s and #2 reports). If you are lucky, they might even post pictures of your dog on their Facebook page, which is always fun to see. ( https://www.facebook.com/pages/Paw-Joggers/327092205281 ) They send bills via email that are processed through Intuit or Paypal. It's super easy and each invoice is itemized. Basically, I love them, they love my dogs and they provide me with excellent service. What more could I ask for?
