She smells very good. We go on walks to the park and rides in her car. I am older now and when I don't feel like walking, she doesn't make me! She's of a wonderful person, and I highly recommend her. She never makes me put my tongue back in my mouth either!

I have a 7yr old, 3lb yorkie named Popeye. He is my whole world! Needless to say, I'm very…read moreparticular in regard to who I leave Popeye with. In the past 7 yrs the only people I have ever left Popeye with is my dad, or Madison. He is small/fragile (he unfortunately has many health problems) and the last thing I want is to be worried about wether he is being cared for properly or not. When I leave Popeye with Madison I know he is in loving hands. Madison is very attentive, compassionate and truly loves your dog as much as she loves her own. She texts updates and pictures of your dog so you can see how happy they are with her. I feel for the amount of personal care she provides she is very well priced. I have friends who "board" their dogs and pay the same, or more, which is absurd in my opinion. I would never board my baby! When Popeye is in Madison's care I know he is happy and constantly being loved on. What more could you ask for?

Can we give more than 5 stars? Tina is some sort of doggy angel. I dropped off my very (very!)…read moreanxious puppy for a 3 day overnight stay while I was on a business trip. He had never stayed away and has separation anxiety. He was a challenge and they never made me feel bad, they would call me with updates and positive news and offered to work together to help getting him settled. I drop him off once or twice a week for daycare so he can get used to it. I've seen a HUGE improvement in just a couple of weeks. Big shout out to Nate as well who has been managing my little monster. Tina is full of love and knowledge, I've been a dog owner my entire life and already made a few changes based on her recommendation. THANK YOU Tina and Nate (and everyone else) for loving and helping our little furry baby.

I recommend Michelle without reservation for your pets. She takes care of my two pugs, Otis…read moreSpunkmeyer and Cara Mia- walks, feeds and gives them their medications. She is reliable, caring and knowledgeable. She works to accommodate my schedule and shows up when she says she will. She gives me updates by text of how my pugs did on their walk and alerts me if she has any concerns about their health. She was also aware on our first meeting that pugs can overheat easily (due to their short noses) and made it a point to say that she would be careful with them on hot days. She came over before I ever used her services for a meet and greet to understand my needs and to meet my pugs. I believe she is expanding her services also to Huntington Beach soon. I definitely recommend her if you need pet care!

Michelle has been nothing but amazing, and always is responsive. She has watched both my dog and…read morecat on several occasions, and I trust her fully. She is extremely knowledgeable about both dogs and cats and keeps a very attentive eye out for any irregularities. She is honest and reliable. Can't beat that!

This is my 2nd time leaving my pup in the care with the team here and the communication and level…read moreof commitment is unmatched. This last time my flight was cancelled and I was stuck in a city for another day due to unforeseen circumstances and Bradley ( my point of contact ) assured me everything was fine and that Alfredo was going to be taken care of. I can tell this guy really loves his work and is super passionate about it. It makes leaving my guy there such a stress free process. I've tried other local facilities in Long Beach and no one compares, it's absolutely worth the drive to bring him here. This all goes without mentioning the beautifully updated facilities that I know makes the stay comfortable for my pup. Can't recommend this place enough, 15 out of 5 stars.

HOME AWAY FROM HOME DOG BOARDING & Daycare is an awesome place!…read more My dog, BoreAlis (we call her "Alice") has been going there on the days that I need to go to work (3-4 days a week) since September 2024. The staff are remarkable! They always work with me, as my schedule changes week-to-week. Alis gets personal attention (and lots of affection) from everyone there and she has supervised play with her friends throughout the day; I get pictures during the day showing her activities and occasional walks to the park. Every dog there gets personal recognition and mental stimulation from the staff. It really gives me comfort to know that she is expertly taken care of and always having fun! The amenities are beautiful and ALWAYS clean... no odors or messes anywhere, EVER! Alis has memorized the drive there and whines with excitement in the car ride from about 3 blocks away, when we are on our way in the morning. When I pick her up, it's a different story... she NEVER wants to leave to go home with me. When she finally gets in the car, she drops and relaxes; she is always so happy and tired! I truly, highly recommend "Home Away from Home" for your peace of mind, and for safe-play for our beloved furry friends!

Brooke was an absolutely amazing pet sitter and we couldn't recommend her more. From the start, you…read morecould tell how much she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. Our dogs and cat loved her, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were with someone who treats them with that level of care and attention. One of our dogs takes a couple medications, and Brooke was incredibly responsible and precise about making sure everything was given correctly and on schedule. She followed all of our feeding routines and instructions carefully, and whenever something wasn't completely clear she reached out to ask questions and clarify instead of guessing. That level of communication meant a lot to us and really reassured us while we were away. She also kept us updated the whole time and sent the BEST pictures of our pets, which we looked forward to getting. It was so nice seeing how happy and relaxed they were while we were gone. I'll include some of the photos she took because they were honestly amazing. On top of that, she was extremely respectful of our home and took great care of everything while we were away. It's not easy trusting someone with both your pets and your house, but Brooke went above and beyond. We came home to happy animals and everything just as we left it. We would absolutely book her again! Genuinely wish there were more stars to give

Sylvia is a Godsend, and I mean that literally! While it's too long and too personal a story to…read moreshare details here, I've spent the last several years in a family caregiving situation in which I was unable to have a social life or enjoy my hobbies due to balancing full-time work and caregiving. Recently, I've been trying to reclaim some time for myself, but now I have two senior dogs with medical conditions to look after, and this alone makes it challenging to go out. Sylvia has made it possible for me to do so, thereby basically saving my mental health, haha. Every pet parent wants someone truly reliable whom they can trust, and Sylvia is absolutely that kind of person. She is not just genuinely knowledgeable and experienced, she is also just a kind, wonderful person who is easy to work with. I can't express how reassuring it feels to be out doing something you enjoy, but then also partly worried about your furry friends, and then to get a text update from Sylvia with photos (like the ones attached here) showing your beloved pets fed, medicated, and resting peacefully. I can't recommend Sylvia's services enough, but I also don't want you to book her too often because that's exactly what *I* want to do! LOL

The price is also very affordable for what you're getting.
