Two of them called me right back after receiving my message. A testament to Carol and her team! Auntie Carol watches our cat, Jasper when we travel. She is the best and has taken great care of our baby!! I receive daily updates and pictures of Jasper's care in great detail - putting me at ease. The team puts your pet's needs first and ranks a 12 out of 10. I highly recommend!!

Apparently my almost 7 year old daughter only likes to excel at expensive extracurricular…read moreactivities! Lucky us. lol She is currently into the very expensive activity of horseback riding. She loves it! Her trainer is Kate who has been around horses all of her life. She is an excellent trainer and recently talked us into letting our daughter enter her first competition which she placed 3rd in only after having 10 lessons with Kate. A lot of kids take lessons here and all seem very happy. Some children take lessons several times per week, some once a week. They have a horse leasing program for you to share a horse and do boarding there. When my daughter arrives, she goes and gets all of her horses gear and pretty much does everything herself with a little help from an older girl. She is trained for a half hour by Kate than takes the horses gear off at the end, brushes him off and gets help putting him in his stall. All of the horses are taken care of and happy at this barn. There are no saddle marks, they are clean and in happy dispositions. There are many sizes so your child can start off on a pony and move up. Classes are $40 per class.

We could see their very well-cared-for horses in the pasture as we were driving up. The horses we rode were wonderful: balanced, responsive, smooth; and we saw a few other lesson horses being ridden who looked equally good It was extremely hot, but our horses were forward and had plenty of energy for a nice jumping lesson. Our instructor, Kate, was fantastic and all of the staff and helpers there were very friendly.

They watch after our 3 cats when we are not in town and they never fail to give us daily updates on the services they provided, pictures of the cats and any concerns that have come up. Twice Simply Pets has really gone above and beyond for us - once when I had a family emergency and they did everything they could to fit us in last minute. More recently we were out of the country when our furnace gave out and Kelsie & Josie did everything from turning on our space heaters to finding alternate housing (in case the furnace couldn't be repaired soon). They kept us informed every step of the way and what's more important, did everything to keep our cats safe and comfortable. I feel very comfortable having the staff at Simply Pets watch our cats - from scheduling, to billing to the way they interact with pets, you simply can't ask for more.

I've been bringing my dog here for over three years, and they feel like family. From day one, I've had complete trust in them when it comes to my dog's health, safety, and happiness. The team is warm, attentive, and clearly loves every single pup that walks through the door. One of my favorite parts? Every single time we're in the car heading there, my dog knows exactly where we're going and starts getting so excited. Tail wagging, nose to the window--it's clear how much he loves it there. I can't say enough good things about this place. It gives me total peace of mind knowing my dog is being cared for like one of their own. If you're considering doggy daycare or boarding, I highly recommend Just Like Home for Paws. They're everything you could want in a second home for your dog.

The facility is welcoming, cozy and clean. I love that it's female owned and family operated! I was very anxious about boarding Sherlock over Christmas because he suffers separation anxiety, but after seeing the daily photos and videos my mind was completely put at ease. Sherlock looked like he was having a great time and it was clear he was being well cared for and getting lots of love & attention! Now I can go on vacation with no worries knowing that Sherlock is in great hands. He now goes to doggie day care weekly. And even though it's only been couple weeks, I can already see an improvement in his separation anxiety. I would highly recommend JLH4P to anyone looking for doggie daycare/boarding!

This time, I asked for one night and a bath/cut, quoted at $325 and charged $576. My directions were to cut the dogs as short as the groomer was comfortable with, knowing that my Australian Shepherds are double coat dogs and every groomer I've taken them too refuses to go any shorter than 2". They shaved my dogs down to the skin, and then sent a picture asking if they took off enough....as if I'm able to say "please put some back on". They fought with me every step of the way and lie about their service and pricing. I'd be amazed if they were actually licensed to groom dogs. They are rude, insulting, and refuse to apologize for any of their absurd actions. For the safety of all pets in the area, they should close shop and find something new to do. 1 star because I can't put 0.
