    Reliable, Affordable, Trustworthy.. what more can you ask for!?…read more I'm deeply grateful that Cheryl agreed to help me, especially on such short notice, with taking care of my dog. She was more than willing to ease my (first time) nerves of letting a stranger into my house and taking care of one of the family.. that's not something someone should tred lightly on; she provided proof that her (legitimate) business was registered with the city, had insurance, along with additional relative documents (to include references-which I stupidly but don't regret not completing). Each time she came she left "progress notes" about what she and my dog did together so I would know what's needed upon returning home; sometimes she communicated this also thru text messages. Upon the last visit I was shocked to see a toy and little gifts left behind, to include a thank you note (with a photo of my dog) for the opportunity to help. If you are reading this review on this company it shows you're serious about being cautious and giving away your trust to a stranger; hopefully you now have some insight knowing that from this experience I can say you can place your trust in this company.

    I would actually give them a zero. Do Not Use Fuzzy Friends as Your Pet Sitter. They are…read moreAbusive... I had to go out of town from 4/28 to 5/5 of this year (2026.) I used Fuzzy Friends back in 2024 for a week of travelling, and also to care for my animals during the time that I could not due to recovering from a broken leg. They were phenomenal, but that is hardly the case now. They use an app called Time to Pet, and back in 2024 I received extensive pictures and very positive communication about my animals and their conditions each day. Even when I was recovering from my broken leg and they found me asleep when they came to service my pets they took pictures and left great detail on their work. That is why when I needed to travel this year, there was no question that I would use them again! I hired Fuzzy Friends to come in and care for my cats and Guinea Pigs from 4/29 to 5/4 (2026.) On 4/29 all I received on their app at 4:59pm was a message, "Your animals have received food and water." No pictures, no detail. I was busy with the business of my trip, and so I thought nothing of the message. The next day, I received a voicemail message at about noon from Fuzzy Friends asking me to call them at my earliest convenience and expressing no urgency. When I called them back, the owner immediately started screaming at me telling me that my house was filthy and had the stench of ammonia, and that her pet sitter got sick after being in my house, and that I would be responsible for her medical bills. I was threatened and told that I had one hour to get someone to my house to get the keys from them or they would call Albuquerque Animal Control and have my animals removed from my house. I immediately called another person that I know that is a very professional pet sitter, and asked her to please go to my house and get my keys and take over this job. She immediately drove from the east side of town to my house and had to wait there while Fuzzy Friends showed up. They only gave her one key to my house at first, she had to ask for the second key. She immediately went into my house and this is what she discovered: It did not look like any service had been done for my animals since I left on Tuesday evening. The food and water were low but at least they were not empty. Also, she questioned why Fuzzy Friends did not mention to me in their app message on Wednesday evening or in their voicemail to me on Thursday afternoon that any problems had occurred instead of all Hell breaking loose on Thursday afternoon. If they had caught the problem earlier there would have been one less day of the house being closed up with the smell of Ammonia! Why else would it have been so strong by the time that they finally went to care for my pets?? I had been using an ammonia-based stain remover on my rugs just before leaving on my trip. Although it was effective on another rug in my den, in my living room the smell was very strong, probably because the house had been closed up since I left Tuesday evening. Luckly, it was the cleaner, and I found that my cats did not actually pee on the rug. The smell certainly was not pleasant, but not to the point that she would describe it as a "stench." My replacement pet sitter told me that as a pet sitter for over 20 years, that sometimes you encounter a problem with something while your customers are gone and you have to deal with it. That is why they hire you. She aired out my house for me and it was clear in a little over an hour. She brought Feliway to my house, folded up the rug so that it could dry, and even offered to drag my rug outside, which I told her was too much for her to do. My rug is being cleaned and deodorized by a carpet cleaner just to make sure that the ammonia smell is gone. Fuzzy Friends refused to refund my money. Despite the fact that my replacement pet sitter had to wait about 15 minutes for Fuzzy friends to show up to get the keys to my house, Fuzzy Friends called Albuquerque Animal Control anyway to report that I had "violated an ordinance." I cooperated with the Animal Control officer that came out to search my house, and I was told by the officer that I have not violated any ordinances. Dealing with these people was a nightmare...They are abusive and they should not be in the pet sitting business...Don't make the same mistake I did by hiring them!

Cripes, I had five (5) six figure emergencies ($XXX,XXX.00) in my business in ABQ today and still made all of MY appointments. She wants to re-schedule on her time?

Oh sorry, forgot, you did not show up. I don't care if I'm in Taos or Taiwan - what "emergency" will I hear about when gone that means my animals are left unfed? Adios & good luck.

She didn't even bat an eye about that number (or type) of pets and was very professional and knowledgeable. She provided great tips beforehand during our consultation to help prevent accidents/injury while pets were alone. We received texts and updates daily and felt very comfortable and were able to enjoy our trip. I have only interacted with Hideyo but she has many years in the business and assume anyone from Wags to Whiskers is like-minded. We are VERY pleased.

My dogs are very happy and excited whenever I take them there. And I feel that's the best review ever! I'm so glad I found a second home for them in Albuquerque.

    TL;DR: I would not trust Camp Bow Wow with the safety of my pets…read more My parents boarded their two small dogs at Camp Bow Wow for the very first time while we attended a family event out of state. When we picked them up that evening, one dog had a large, pus-filled wound on her face that staff described only as "a scratch." Although none of us are veterinarians, it was obvious the wound was more serious than that. The next morning, our family veterinarian confirmed it was a puncture wound that had become infected, drained the pus, and explained that it would have required stitches had it been treated sooner. Instead, the dog was prescribed a week of antibiotics. Two weeks later, the wound is healing but still not fully resolved. We contacted Camp Bow Wow to find out what had happened because no one had informed us of any incident before pickup. After investigating, management told us our dog had been injured as collateral damage during a scuffle between another dog and her companion a couple of hours before checkout. They also claimed they had called my parents to discuss the incident. That is not what happened. The only voicemail my parents received stated that both dogs were doing well and asked them to call about exit baths. They returned the call on the way from the airport, reached voicemail, and received no further attempts to contact them. When we asked why veterinary care wasn't sought--or, at a minimum, why my parents weren't notified so they could decide whether their dog should be seen--we were told the injury "did not appear to be severe enough for medical attention" and had only "occurred a couple of hours prior to checkout." This explanation was difficult to reconcile with our veterinarian's findings that the wound was already infected and that too much time had passed for stitches, despite the vet examining her less than 24 hours after the incident allegedly occurred. When we raised these concerns, management stood by their account and stated that pet owners are responsible for any veterinary expenses resulting from their dog's stay. When I asked the facility manager, Sally, about their policy for notifying owners when a dog is injured, specifically by another dog, I never received a clear answer--only a repetition of their version of events. As someone who owns my own two dogs and frequently uses boarding facilities, I understand that kennel staff are not veterinarians. I don't expect them to diagnose injuries. I do expect them to promptly notify pet owners whenever an animal is injured and allow the owner--not the kennel--to decide whether veterinary care is warranted. I also expect honesty and transparency as to when and how an incident occurred, which I do not believe we received in this instance. In my opinion, Camp Bow Wow failed to meet that basic standard of care. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend boarding your pets there.

We board our dogs, multiple nights, several times a year. The last three visits turned out to be a different story. The first time one of dogs came back with several bites on the face including an eye that required a Vet visit. They blamed it on our dogs sleeping together. Our dogs have always slept together and never an incident. The next time they lost part of the food we took for out dogs to have. The dogs were fed an incomplete meal three of the seven days. We take great joy in watching our dogs on the Webcam but one camera has been out for months and it happens to be the one where they spend most of the time. This last time we arrived to pick our dogs up late in the day, because we had bought multiple nights it would be charged and we had no problem with that - we just wanted to have the dogs home with us. We were told we needed to pay a day boarding rate. The manager was completely non workable on the issue and I requested to talk to the owner. The manager informed us we would not be able to have our dogs cared by them. We finally were allowed to take dogs and informed us the owner would contact us. She did call the next day to inform us that she would take the extra day fee from our prepayment and return the balance of funds on hold. She also informed us that we were no longer welcome.
