Beautiful, clean and modern facility
The Traveling Terrier ..

Oh my goodness! Where do I even begin?! I am so thankful to have found Best Buddies Pet Care and am SUPER excited for their recently opened daycare/boarding facility. After the owner of Olive's previous daycare facility sold the business, we found that service with the new owner was less than desirable. So, on the hunt we went for a new daycare for Miss Olive and we came across Best Buddies Pet Care (B&B) and I sent an email inquiring about tours. Kimie was beyond pleasant and very helpful in answering my MANY questions. We went ahead and scheduled Olive for a complimentary assessment and a tour of the facility. The day of our appointment arrived and upon entering the lobby door, Kimie was right there to greet us and Olive loved her! The facility is sparkling clean, beautifully decorated and modern. It is comprised of a lobby, a grooming area, the main daycare/boarding room (cage-free with a television, an electric fireplace for ambiance, a trundle bed along with small cots for puppers, and a state of the art artificial turf potty area), and a back room that has seperate, gated off "mini rooms" (used for feed times and if a pupper needs some alone time). The entire place felt homey (not overwhelmingly large) and I love that their focus is more about quality than quantity. Kimie, thank you so much for taking the time and giving us a tour and answering all our questions. This discerning dog momma is so happy to have found you & Olive is looking forward to playtime and boarding with you again!

Luna at 4.5 months

Started our now almost 5 months old GSD puppy Luna at Best Buddies for daycare because we had to slowly get back to work. Even during this pandemic she was so properly introduced and cared for. Nicole always answered my calls and emails right away, and was very flexible with my random schedules. We also had the pleasure to meet Kimie and Harmony in person. Everyone was so friendly and treated Luna as their own puppy. I got friendly reports of how she did every time I picked her up, and even videos of her playing. It's very reassuring to know your dog is getting well socialized and learning good manners while you're away. We're very thankful for all the owners and staff. We only leave Luna there once a week since she's still young, but seems like she will be demanding more days in the near future :)

Big play area for the day care and boarding

See all

I am extremely grateful for Sit Means Sit professionals who worked with my high energy,…read morerambunctious, 10 month old Rottweiler mix rescue. Our struggle: leash pulling, dog reactivity, focus & settling around people. This program taught me how to communicate with my puppy and let go of the worry that I cannot manage my puppy inside or outside my home. 1) The program: very thorough consultation where they listen to your needs and recommend what they feel is best with ZERO judgement and pressure. I went with day training w private lesson due to my work schedule. You get tools needed to replicate the training at home. 2) The trainers: Kind, adaptable, observant and very easy to talk to. There are multiple as well so there is no worry that your pup isn't getting their dedicated training time. 3) The environment: Clean, air conditioned AND smells really nice. They do coat and safety checks on your pup before each session too! The best part is it doesn't end after a few lessons, we get to continue working on skills in group and private sessions as needed, so he gets the exposure I otherwise wouldn't be able to provide by myself. With their help and consistency on my part, I see my pups future staying bright

I imagined her making brownies, popcorn, having a BBQ and not turning off the grill afterwards. Carried away-then I remembered this is Molly, our favorite cat, and prepared to have someone else in our messy house. The manager "Mollie" was very organized. We, were very detailed. I organized food in one cabinet, with post-its for info, post-it where her room litterbox was after already giving info to the manager I think it helped make things simpler. We started getting daily reports, with "basics" box checked. They were thorough, precise, and complete. My Dad worked for Polaroid for 20 years, and these pet sitters were awesome at taking pictures. Every day we'd open up the emails and this noise would come out of our mouths: not ooh! Yecch! But...: Awwww, look at how cute she looks. Her wariness and caution as a cat showed, but her shyness rounded the corner a bit. Sitter4paws let us take a long vacation worry free at what we thought were reasonable prices, for a truly truly worry free vacation. Great communicators, responsible, and reliable, and awesome photographers. Thank you!

Tl;dr: Do not use this company if you have a pet with medical issues that needs medication. Hit or…read moremiss with individual sitters and you have no choice or control over who they send over. I will never use them again after my TERRIBLE experience. Initially used this service for a short business trip with success so tried again for a longer trip to see family between Christmas and NYE. The company sent a sitter I had never met who incorrectly used the pill injector on my sick, elderly cat and forced her to swallow the over inch-long applicator tip. Resulted in $3,000 emergency vet surgery to remove that I had to manage from out of town. So deeply stressful for me but mainly my poor elderly asthmatic cat!! They handled it but SO unnecessary and only happened bc of their bizarre business model where they pick whichever of their employees are available, not someone who knows your house/pet. So if you get one who knows what they're doing you don't necessarily get them again - it's totally random from the customer's perspective. Instead of enjoying my family I had to spend the time managing the emergency they created from afar, stressed and fuming that I trusted this company to send someone competent to care for my sweet older cat. After the first disastrous pill delivery issue they sent the **same person** again a day later who clearly doesn't know how to give a cat medication and she, again, incorrectly gave my cat her medication!!! My cat gets ill if she misses just one day, the medication is a high-dose steroid for her asthma. The employee did not know how to give her the pill, but still marked the medication as administered on their form (I only figured out it didn't happen when I read the notes) and instead of giving her the pill rubbed it on her gums -?!? I am FURIOUS for my poor cat and at the incompetence of this employee they continue to use, along with the management that assured me they know how to give cats medication and yet still sent this individual out after it was proved that they cannot give a cat medication effectively. The other employees seemed to be ok but I had no choice over who they sent over, meaning every visit was a gamble. If you need anything beyond the most basic service, avoid avoid avoid!!!

We got our rescue dog in February 2026. She came with a lot of issues, so we hired an ethical,…read morepositive-reinforcement trainer. She recommended Sarah at Happy Dogs Happy Owners when we mentioned we were struggling to leave our dog home during working hours. Needless to say, we're very glad we trusted our trainer. Maple has been going to daycare three days a week for seven months and literally scratches at the gate to get in and see Sarah/ her dog friends every morning. She comes home completely tuckered out and sleeps the rest of the day. I just know Sarah is doing a good job by how much Maple loves and trusts her. Aside from the playtime, Sarah will also bathe our dog, clip her nails, and express her anal glands upon request for very reasonable prices. She is always responsive via text and I've even been known to text her for advice about any odd issues that come up. My only complaint is that we don't live closer to where Sarah is! But the 20-25 min commute to drop off/ pick up Maple is so worth it to leave my dog in the hands of a great sitter. 10/10, would recommend.

We booked our dogs Scout (a GSD) and Sasha (a Mal) for a 10-day stay. I had conerns because our…read moreGSD is clingy, has separation anxiety, and can be reactive to strange dogs. At 110 pounds, he can be a handful. I was impressed with Sarah's attitude and the ease with which she handled him. We dropped them off for a brief (45 minute) introduction so she could assess their personalities and ability to mix with her pack and mentor dogs. Everything went fine, and I was relieved. During our trip we got a ton of photos and text updates. Scout tried to escape 2 or 3 times, but Sarah handled him with ease until he adjusted. She makes sure all her boarders received the individualized care they need, whether that be segregated eating, play time, etc. Our dogs ended up mixing seamlessly with the pack. She made sure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation (nose work, mental exercises, interactive etc.), physical exercise (bike rides, play time, obstacles, etc.). Our dogs were very, very happy. Sarah is very experienced with dogs, and she cared for our dogs with love, integrity, and leadership. What do I mean "integrity"? Sarah treats her boarders like ger personal dogs. Every single dog gets her love, her time, and the leadership they need to get along with others and enjoy a calm, but fun filled stay. If your dog won't safely mix, she won'ttake your money and keep it caged until you return. She'll tell you she cant handle your dog and that's that. If you care about your dog, you'll find that peace of mind is priceless. We highly recommend Sarah and her services. In fact, we're decided to do doggy daycare once a month purely for the socialization and enrichment our dogs will experience. Sarah is the real deal and a gem. She can handle multiple dogs and their individual personalities with ease, and ours were greatly enriched during their stay with her.
