    It was so worse when we picked him up from Arcade Creek Kennels. Sorry buddy.
    Heresy K.

    I don't know why I left a four star review. I guess it was in good faith that they would pay our vet bill, they offered, but we never followed through with it, and it cost us double to have our dog go through this. Luckily he's had no serious side effects. After talking with my partner, we've agreed that we will never use this kennel again. As per my original review, please know that this is potentially something that can happen to your fur baby too.

    One of my favorite places I am very comfortable leaving my dog for a few days when I'm gone. Great staff and management and my dog feels super happy over there. Thank you everyone.

    My husband and I moved to Citrus Heights this year and we were looking for a new place to board our pup. On my first visit, I was given a great tour and the staff took time to answer my questions. I filled out his paperwork and then made a reservation for a trial boarding day with them for the following month. Ryker wears a GPS collar (Fi) and I could tell that he got a lot of steps in while he stayed with them during his daytime trial. He did great (which was a relief because he can sometimes be nippy in new groups but I was told they would separate him and take him out by himself if he does not want to be with a particular group). Ryker stayed here for a week last month--again, he did great! And you can tell he enjoyed himself as he was exhausted when we got home (see photo). Thank you Arcade Creek Kennel for helping answer our questions (giving us peace on our trip) and taking great care of our picky-eater, special-at-times little guy!!!

    I have taken my fur baby to this kennel 2 times and my dog seems to like it ..?? I am very pleased with the staff and my dog comes home well adjusted, but sometimes hoarse probably from all the barking .... the poor staff their ears must be bleeding....from my dog yelling because I didn't take him on vacation with me. Everyone that works there is very caring and loving to the dogs. My dog does get some diarrhea when I leave, but they clean him and love him and take good care of him and I couldn't be more happier. They are great on making sure all animals shots are up so no worries of your dog coming home sick.

    Snow cloud loves to lay in the Sun and watch anything and everything around him. And he loves to go to doggy daycare

    Loving my home away from home visits at Doggie Daycare. The staff are so good to me and I love them. I always know my mommy will come back for me so I have no worries and I get food here. I also have lots of friends to play with my size. Signed with appreciation and love, snow cloud buttons

    Jubilee excited to go to Arcade Creek Kennel that first morning.

    Our Pomsky Jubilee spent 18 days here and they were awesome. From our visit and tour a month earlier to the free doggie day care afternoon. All to help Jubilee (her Momsky & Popsky really) get used to the idea of being here for the 2+ weeks. The videos on Instagram showed us how all the fun she had during "summer sleep away camp". The staff kept her feeding schedule and provided clean facilities and cared for her total well-being. And they answered questions or provided updates during phone call check-ins. They truly love dogs and treated Jubilee like one of their own. Although we're in Elk Grove, using Arcade Creek Kennels was the best choice and well worth the drive. A special thank you shout-out to Danielle and Sherry!

    My baby boy loves it here! The staff are great, they are priced very fairly and I'm a totally helicopter dog mom and they cater to that. I'm so happy we found this great Kennel. I feel so much better knowing my puppy is having a great time a few days a week.

    I can't say enough about this establishment and the care for their animal guests!! I have a very anxious dog who has horrible issues with certain sounds and separation anxiety. When I first talked to Danielle she was so friendly and accommodating to all my questions and reassured me that my dog would be fine! We try to take him with us when we can, but when we can't we've left him here on 4 different occasions and he has done awesome. I love that they post playtime on their IG account. I just wish they did it everyday!! It really made me happy to see him running around free and with the other dogs. I drive all the way from Elk Grove because I know he is cared for here and I'm so happy I found this kennel. And just in case you're hesitant to put your dog in open play (which I was) you have the choice to have alone play time.

    They are exhausted from play time at ACK! :)

    See all

    I toured this kennel and found it to be too crowded for my liking. I just wouldn't feel comfortable boarding my dogs there.

    Does my dog have to be neutered?

    I don't believe so... call Danielle @ Arcade Creek

    Do they have individual play for dogs who do not like other dogs?

    I believe they do. I've seen where there has been only one dog outside while the others are indoors, in their own kennels. But, it's best to call them. You may need to leave a message because they are very busy. My fur kids love it there.

    The Pet Nanny - Drew and Masudi

    The Pet Nanny

    Drew has been such an amazing cat caregiver for my crew of fuzzballs for the past several years…read morethat I've decided I can never move out of the area. If you're looking for someone with a genuine love of and connection to cats, who is very experienced with cat behavior and health issues, and who is supremely trustworthy and reliable - look no further than Drew. Before I met Drew I spent so much time on Yelp contacting other pet sitters in the area and they all seemed like they were mostly dog-oriented and just tolerated cats and would be only dropping by to make sure my cats were alive. Then I contacted Drew and I knew right away she was special - she actually adores cats and her primary concern is getting to know your cats' individual needs and quirks and providing the best comprehensive care possible while putting your mind at ease with daily checks-ins and photos. (She also owns a photography business and you can hire her for an epic pet photo session!) Drew regularly takes care of my guys, whether I'm busy for one day or away for a longer trip. Under anyone else's care, I'd worry about their individual dietary and behavioral needs - I have a picky older cat with anxiety and urinary issues, a goofy black cat with a sensitive tummy and a history of eating inedible objects and getting the occasional ear infection, and a young, spunky one-eyed cat who once had an injured leg. Not only has Drew gotten to know each of their personalities and connected with them like they're her own pets (they greet her at the door), she has expertly attended to their occasional extra needs and has on multiple occasions taken the time to talk me through my concerns about their issues. In addition to being a cat owner herself, Drew has experience working at clinics and rescues and volunteers her time at a cat sanctuary so I thoroughly trust her input and consider her a valued care companion and part of our pet family. My cats (and I) absolutely adore Drew and there's just no better feeling when you're away than total peace of mind that your fur family is receiving the best possible care. 5 stars, 10/10. Thank you, Drew!

    Drew is the best house/pet sitter ever. She has been watching our dogs and chickens for 10 years…read more She treats our animals like they are her own, they don't even act like they miss us when we get home. I highly recommend her.

    We recently booked with Lucky Buddy Petcare for a vacation and am glad we gave them a chance!…read more We first met the owner Janet and loved her vibe. My main concern was our dogs not being comfortable with the rotation of different pet sitters, so I expressed that concern with Janet and figured out a plan to prepare our dogs. We ended up booking walks for our dogs to meet with the different sitters they may encounter during our vacation. Each walker/sitter we met was equally friendly and our three German shepherds had no issue with either one of them. We received reports after each visit, which we appreciated. What I do appreciate most about Lucky Buddy Petcare is that we're not dependent on one person's schedule while planning. The booking process is super easy through their website. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a pet sitting company!

    If you are here on Yelp looking for dog walkers and sitters, then you think of your dog as family…read morelike I do. I am grateful to have found Janet and her team to walk and stay overnight with my smart, loving and rambunctious Aussie, Jake. Jake loved his walks and especially enjoyed his time with Janet and Kathleen when they stayed with him when I went on my first trip in years because I would not board him. I told my friends I thought he was two-timing me because he was so happy and relaxed when I arrived home. I also had a dog walker come every day at Janet's suggestion while I was away and I truly appreciate the time and care these young women gave to Jake during that time and his regular walks. Sadly, Jake is no longer with me. He was only six years old but he had a medical condition that was lurking, unknown and undiagnosed until it suddenly appeared shattering my world. My first call was to my friend, a retired vet, who told me the likely diagnoses. My second call was to Janet who told me where the best ER animal hospital was located and provided additional emotional support. Janet continued to reach out and check to see if I was alright after I had to make a pet owner's most dreaded decision. She is not kidding in her business info when she says she will be there for you.
