My sister, Raven and I, both poodle mixes, enjoyed hanging out in the great room overlooking the Lani and dozing wherever and whenever we wanted. Our host was great, even though we only got to spend the day with her while our peeps went to an art fair, we miss her already. I overheard that the money spent was well worth it and I hope we will be able to visit again soon. We live in a motor coach and we're staying at an RV Park - we certainly recommend the owner, Kathy, and her son, to take exceptional care of your pets.

I've taken my now 2 year old dog to Poochie's since he was a wee 6 month old pup. He loves it there…read moreand so do I. The dogs visit Poochie's first for a temperament test to see how they get along with the other dogs and once the staff sees that they are a good fit, it's off to the races! I know my dog is happy and well cared for when I have to work long hours. He's also not confined to a crate, which is what makes Poochie's so amazing. I pick him up after work and he's exhausted from running and playing all day. He is a golden retriever with endless energy, but thanks to Poochie's staff and the other sweet dogs there that I call his "friends", he always comes home to nap for several hours.

My sweet floofers, Hudson, has been going to Animal House every day for doggy daycare since he was…read more8-weeks old. That was 3 years ago, and he is still there :) Animal House is special on sooooooo many levels, a real gem of a find here in Sarasota for all these fur-babies. Gina & Mahesh are such lovely & warm-natured people, you immediately get the sense that although this is their business, they are also true animal lovers! Their warmth & affection with all the dogs really shows! The moment I open my door to let Hudson out in the mornings, he runs inside with a smile on his face and his tail wagging (and his pink chicken! Ohhhhhh that pink chicken, LOL!!). The facility is always clean, well kept, and run very efficiently of course, but ultimately (for me at least), it was their warm & inviting feeling I got when first meeting Gina & Mahesh that made me decide on Animal House for Hudson all those years ago. They are a "family", and you & your sweet fur-baby become part of their family in every way. Gina & Mahesh go above & beyond for their four-legged "customers". There have been times when one of them will actually text or call me whenever Hudson isn't there, just to check on him & make sure all is well. This really shows you how much they genuinely care. If you are looking for a daily doggy daycare situation, or even the occasional boarding for overnight stays, don't hesitate w/ Animal House. The peace of mind I have every day while I'm at work, knowing my sweet Hudson is in such good hands - Well, that alone is priceless. Thank you Gina & Mahesh!

Unprofessional Bait-and-Switch - Beware - Everything you DON'T WANT in a pet sitter…read more I contacted Caroline at Ohh My Dog for in-home overnight care for my two senior, anxious dogs for a 12-day trip. She provided a full detailed quote for 12 nights of in-home pet sitting ($1,760) and encouraged me to pay a $20 fee for a meet-and-greet to "ensure the dates are set". As soon as I PAID the fee, the service she "offered" completely changed. Despite being explicitly told my dogs cannot board elsewhere due to anxiety issues, she pivoted and repeatedly pressured me to have them stay in her home. She then claimed she "only accepts one pet sitting client (in your home) a month" and eventually stated she doesn't do in-home sits longer than 7 days (despite quoting me for a 12-day in-home stay just days earlier)--crucial information she conveniently left out until after she had taken my money. Trying to schedule the paid "meet-and-greet" was a series of unprofessional excuses: * First Cancellation (Substitution): Caroline deferred the first meeting to her walker, Grace. I paid the fee to meet the person who would be staying in our home. Meeting a walker who Caroline herself admitted "can't help with walks or anything during the week" does not fulfill the professional requirement for a 12 night in-home sitter meet-and-greet. * Second Cancellation (The Yogurt): Caroline canceled our second in-person meeting the morning of, claiming food poisoning from yogurt that had been expired for two months. Yep--Yogurt. * The Reality: Then she asked me to bring the dogs to HER house for the meet-and-greet and AGAIN suggesting for the 12 night stay with my dogs be moved to her house, continuing to ignoring the need for my dogs to remain in their own environment. * The Virtual Dog Meet and Greet Inconsistency: She then tried to force a "virtual" meet-and-greet because she didn't want to make the 50-minute drive. I explained this is useless for in-home care, as a sitter cannot assess a home's layout, security, or a dog's specific behavioral needs through a screen. When I pointed out that I paid the fee with the understanding that she sitter would be visiting our home to evaluate the environment for the 12-night stay. Now it was also obvious that she could not fulfill the service I originally requested and paid to discuss, she refused to refund the fee and "terminated" our service, claiming the meeting with her walker counted as a finished job. This business will quote you for the service you want just to take your deposit, then provide only what is convenient for them. Extremely unprofessional, misleading and quite honestly LAZY (I won't get into "The Yogurt")...

She has a genuine love for our critters, always working to help train/reinforce any behaviors we are working on. We have 2 elderly cats, a lab pup and a senior lab who can be dog aggressive, so boarding has never been an option for us. Gail handles all beautifully. She is also excellent at keeping us informed with text messages, etc. while we are away. Best of all, any inevitable messes are cleaned up--often my home looks cleaner than when I left it!
