However, they never flinched because they got it. In the years we have used their services, we have never had an issue.

Additionally, they watched my two birds for me while we were on vacation so that they could stay home in a safe space that they knew versus heading to a boarding facility. I highly recommend Doodlebug!

I may be a tad bit biased in this review - I worked for this company part time for about a year…read more.. But hear me out! After meeting the great people behind K9 Nirvana and working with them in the "trenches" of poo, playtime, cuddles and many a long walk with the fur babies, there is no one else I would trust more. I know these people go above and beyond when it comes to caring for animals; I've seen it in action. I've lived it. Because of this, when it came time for me to get away and hire a dogsitter for my beloved pup Milo, I also became a PAYING CUSTOMER. Rosemary runs the show at K9 Nirvana. She is a very smart, caring and hardworking lady. When you contact K9 Nirvana for services or inquires, you'll hear from her. She will meet with you and your pet(s). Whoever will be your pet's walker or sitter you will get to meet before services are rendered as well. I think this gives a very personable touch to the business - you don't just give your pet(s) away to strangers, you actually get to know them as well. I also really like the notes that are left by the sitter/walker after every visit. This is such a great alternative to leaving your beloved pet at some over-flowing, concrete boarding facility. Your pet gets to stay comfortably in their own home with steady, reliable, animal-loving people taking care of them. What more could you ask for?! If Milo had thumbs, he'd give Rosemary & her crew 2 big thumbs up!

The bonus is, Jessica sent me pix of them every day. When I got back from my week long vacation, everything was in order, my cats were fed and cleaned after and happy.

My dog is elderly and I hated to leave her home for a long day alone. I called Rachel in the evening of the day before the function. Pretty sure it was too last minute. She came right over and met Kiya. She asked questions about how to let her out, how she eats and what she likes. We got a text about how she did the next day. When we got home we had a detailed note on how she ate, what happened on the potty break, and that she was happy and back in her bed. We lost our other old friend in November. Kiya has become even more special to us since then. Knowing that she had a comfortable day was very important to us. So glad to have found Rachel, so close to home and so easy to work with!

Rachel came by four times a day to see the girls and even stayed a few times to watch TV and keep the girls company!

I've been a loyal customer between locations for nearly a decade. I'm disappointed and upset that…read moreat this point, I've lost any semblance of trust for them and cannot leave my animals with them. Twice in the last several months, my dog has been injured by other dogs. The first time she ended up with a hole in her ear from a bite, which they called and informed me about. I went to get her and she was oddly in good spirits but has a gnarly tooth hole in the tip of her ear. I monitored overnight and cleaned her up, since emergency vet visits after-hours are costly and the injury wasn't life-threatening. We lucked out in that instance, and I wish that was the end. Maybe it should've been for me, but I know dogs will be dogs. It bothered me, and I ignored a gut instinct telling me it could've been avoided by better temperament monitoring etc. I wish I'd listened. January 2025: the long and short of it is that at pickup time the excited dogs tend to go bananas and cluster by the door. Apparently not one but TWO dogs got aggressive in this moment when my dog was being jumped on and signaled with a 'yelp' that she wasn't a happy camper...and the other two dogs involved (daycare's details, given to me from camera review) did not appreciate it; one left a tooth gouge so deep in my dogs back that it actually looked like a long, gaping incision - that we had to take her and our other dog in tow immediately to the emergency vet where she was sedated and required surgical care and 2-3 weeks of follow ups, stitch removal, and for me to take several days off of work to monitor and nurse her to a comfortable point so I could return. $1000.00 later, I've now asked them several times via email for what my recourse options were. No acknowledgement. What's worse is the acknowledgements I did get avoid addressing those comments or concerns, and are simply "Ok great thanks for keeping us posted!" They'd only reply with their best wishes for my dog, and that they'd make sure the other two dogs weren't in open play with mine - plus a "warning." Conveniently, no acknowledgement of my concerns about the financial hardship or questions about what my next steps were. I read the fine print in my liability with them on day one: you are responsible for any costs or repercussions of property damage, injury, etc. caused by your pets and Dogtopia was not. Which is fine, I signed it with full knowledge that could happen; dogs will be dogs. I had to put this issue on hold for a bit as the winter was not kind to us circumstantially. Now it's time to see if my dogs are ready for daycare again and some grooming, and things have calmed a bit so I could give this my attention yet again. 4/23/25 I sent a final email to them about it, and not shockingly at all, zero reply or acknowledgement. At least, not until I asked a very direct question - which I will get to momentarily. Initially I wanted to ensure that 1) the dogs who were warned would not be in open play with mine, so I wanted to warn them we were coming so they could be especially mindful (as you can imagine, my paranoia is in high amounts all things considered) and 2) if I could inquire about how to contact the two other dog owners to discuss the costs of the injuries further. I was quickly told no, they don't share pet parent info. I replied and said well, I read your liability rules you made me sign and they say that pet parents are solely responsible for the consequences and costs of their dogs damage or injury. So how do you expect me to accomplish that if you won't give me that info to make contact? It's now been a week, well past the reasonable time to reply to an email, so I can only deduce that yet again I am being ghosted and I'm done trying to remedy this with people insistent on being unprofessional and avoidant. I suppose I will have to take further recourse against the daycare if they won't follow their own policies. This is deeply saddening that I've spent probably in the thousands of dollars in 10 years just to lose this option for my girls. And to be treated like a casual afterthought when if I were the recipient of that last email, I'd at least sense the importance of a reply nonetheless maybe involving someone of actual authority and tenure there to help manage my request. Make no mistake, it will be settled as I don't intend to shrug it off. I just wish it didn't have to be the hard way, as I've had enough of that all things considered. I don't want to tell other consumers "stay away!" because that's not my place. But this has been my experience.
