Have only heard them once, but we were very happy with the service we received. I didn't request…read moreservice until just over a week before our trip and they were able to accommodate. You are given the pricing up front. The price we paid was quite reasonable, especially considering it's a licensed, insured, and bonded business with employees, vs random independent contractors. 2 different gals came to our house to care for our cats while we were gone - Amy and Payton. Both were prompt and took good care of our cats. Amy was exceptionally kind and stayed longer than she was booked for - just to play with our cats! We really appreciated this, since it was our first night away and I know our cats were feeling anxious. It was such a relief to have a business available to us to come to our house to take care of our animals! While I'm sure there are tons of great pet sitters on the various 3rd party pet sitting sites , we would've been too nervous. Being able to hire a business to send people to our house was a big relief! We will absolutely be using them again in the future.

I've been searching for a professional pet sitter for over a year, and had a great first…read moreconversation with the owner Tamara. She does pet sitting herself, but also set me up with a pet sitter in another town when I'm in that area. I was impressed with her contracted sitter during our meet and greet. When a last minute need for sitting in Placerville arose, I contacted Tamara and she was able to accomodate my request. Upon arrival I noticed that the facility was very well organized, safe and set up for multiple dogs. I noted that she is extremely experienced with dogs and well versed in behavior. She is very personable and walked me around and explained how her boarding works and the different areas for the dogs. Tamara made me very comfortable leaving my pet while I ran errands for the day. The facility is set up very well for overnight boarding too. My dog had a great time at Happy Tails with Tamara's Great Dane and other guests. I would definitely return. I also had the opportunity to leave my dog with Cheryl in Folsom and had a very positive experience. I appreciate the fact that Happy Tails is licensed and insured. Highly recommended.

Lianna would take photos of our kitty when she'd come over and then text us photos of her. We highly recommend her and her company!

A stay with…read moreSierra Dogs is akin to a vacation at a first-rate canine playground with plenty of opportunities for physical exercise, mental stimulation and social interaction. We can't help but smile and chuckle while viewing online photos of our pup running at top speed with her dog buddies or taking a break on the deck. Although we miss being apart from our wonderful companion, we are comforted knowing that our dog is supervised while happily frolicking around with dog friends and provided with professional, skilled, and nurturing care. When reunited with our dog, she retains all skills we have instilled and is clean and well-behaved. We are very thankful for Eden and her caring team!

Doesn't get any better. I got a French bulldog puppy and needed some help training him. I sent him…read moreto Sierra dogs for a 6 week board and train program and it was the best decision I ever made. Eden promptly responded to my initial email and patiently answered all of my questions. It was hard having him so far away (I am based in Palo Alto), but I would drive twice as far to have Eden take care of my dog. Each day Eden would post a photo on Facebook, so I could watch him grow and she was always available to talk on the phone if I wanted an update. Eden transformed my 3 month old puppy into a well-trained, well-socialized, very happy dog. My puppy knows how to come, sit, stay, leave it, drop it, shake, and walk on a leash. He now comes with me to work and is the best-trained dog in my office. Now that my puppy has graduated from board and train, I look forward to using Sierra Dogs as a boarding place. (FYI: It's a convenient location for people who are heading up to Tahoe for the weekend.) I highly recommend Sierra Dogs!

I have been bringing my dogs here for five or six years, and I have always been thrilled with the…read moreservice I have received. At one point, I had a pitbull-mix (very pittie looking) and a Chow coming here for daycare, and when I picked them up, at no appointed time, both were out with the other dogs. Now I have a lab and two little ankle-biters (figuratively) who have been in both the day care and also boarded. When I give them blankets, the blankets come back to me washed and dried. They feed whatever diet I provide. The two little dogs are very shy and not terribly social, so the staff at Uppity Pup take care to visit them in their kennel and to let them out only when things aren't crazy on the floor. The facility has always been a comfortable temperature when I visit. My lab used to go to another boarding facility in Shingle Springs. When I first took him there, he was happy and excited to go. After a few months, I almost had to drag him in through the front door. I finally found out that the owner's dog was a bully and that the owner let him get away with it. It took my dog a long time to get over that bad association (and he still has issues with not particularly liking the company of other dogs) there, but I am happy to report that he goes to Uppity Pup willingly (albeit with that look they give you that makes you feel like they are abandoning them). When I pick him up, he is typically happy and tired. When I have to travel for extended periods, I always ask (and get) special arrangements so that my two little dogs can be within visual range of my lab. I usually bring refrigerated homemade food, and I once had to bring a week's worth of meds, as I had a dog (the pitbull) who was still being treated for a rattlesnake bite. Everything was done as I instructed, and I have even had the staff call me about feeding when my instructions were not clear. The staff doesn't typically volunteer information about how my dogs did, when I pick the pups up, but if I ask, I get a detailed answer, which means someone is paying attention. Recently, I asked about socializing the two less-than-social pups in my keeping, expressing my concern that if something happened to me, I would want the dogs to have a good chance of being adopted, and that they would not show well at a pound if they were terrified. The owner said very simply and sincerely that I didn't have to worry about that, because her staff would assist in the placement of any of their clients' dogs, should it be necessary. I don't know if that is true or not, but she didn't have to say it, and it made me feel very good about using their services. In short, I have never had a bad experience here, with five dogs and approximately five years worth of both daycare and boarding.

Such a wonderful first time experience at the Little Lion House for our kitty! Cristine is a true…read morecat lover. She has created a really cat friendly kitty hotel in a brand new, clean, climate controlled [space]. There are individual houses for the boarders, plus ample space for climbing, watching birds and critters out the windows. If desired, the cats are allowed to interact with each other during Cristine's supervised play time. Our "Two" had never been boarded before, and was unsurprisingly hesitant at first, but as her week wore on I could tell by the regular photos that Cristine sent me that she was really relaxing and enjoying her vacation while we were away. We've already made reservations for her for our Fall trip in a few months. Little Lion House provides the kind of environment that we are happy to trust our kitty's care to. Thanks so much Cristine!!
