Pam is a fabulous pet sitter and the proof is in the calm and happy dogs we come home to after a…read moretrip. Two of our three dogs are rather shy, but they trust Pam to take care of them. Pam is also easy to get in contact with while we are away, much more so than previous pet sitters we tried. She sends pictures via text to let us know how our dogs are doing. We had issues with our dogs refusing to go out when friends stopped by to let them out but Pam's kind and gentle way won them over. We also feel that our home is in good hands while we are away. She takes care of things without being intrusive.

We've been using Pam for almost two years and wouldn't trust anyone else with our dog! Pam comes…read moremultiple times a week to walk and love on our dog while we are at work. We've also had to call her last minute to let our dog out or feed him because we couldn't get home. She never lets us down and our dog loves her. We trust her 100% with access to our home. It's so nice to have someone to count on and trust. She even brings an occasional package in that's been left on the porch!

I wouldn't recommend dogdayze unfortunately. Staff are Really, Really lethargic & grumpy & frankly…read morelazy. I was hesitant to bring my dog here, especially after reading a particularly horrifying review (see one left by CristinaChee on GoogleReviews 2mo ago! She was Totally Right- and the fact that nothing has changed is Very Alarming). The employees just don't seem to care (other than charging you ridiculous fees for simple tasks that they may or may not actually do, e.g., you will book/pay for a nature walk but they will be slow to (or never) post or send photos of actually doing it, really cranky/bad attitudes when you dare to ask too!). They are seriously THE most unhappy looking bunch of people to work at a doggydaycare, it's pretty shocking and pathetic. No one says hello or greets the dogs in a friendly way- and similar to what Cristina described if something goes wrong, NO ONE will contact you!!! They are surly and defiant (and again LAZY) and will lie to your face, zero apology whatsoever. The woman who claims to be the manager is terrible- not friendly at all, comes across as super grumpy, and is on a power trip, verrrry arrogant. I've asked her to contact me about an issue, no phonecall or email reply at all. As they say, crap flows from above- so once you meet her, you are no longer surprised that her workers are similar to her and really, really bad! I really hope there is someone above her/an owner who can actually effect real positive change/replace her and/or them. It's a shame because the daycare's activities sound good online (what attracted me initially) but they're ill equipped and don't do a good job implementing them- like for a costume day they have no props etc on hand (what dog daycare has no fun props/makes zero effort) and when painting while some dogs might have 3 pawprints on their final artwork, another might have half a print, because again the workers are lazy as all get out. Mind you you're paying like $30 dollars EACH for all of this, walks, lick plates, etc.- the LEAST these jokers could do is complete these BEYOND SIMPLISTIC tasks & take care of our beloved pets while doing so. They seem to think they can get away with the "I seem young so it's okay nowadays to be lazy and attitude-y" - umm, think again? We customers don't have to put up w/ it! And fortunately there are PLENTY of other pet daycares that actually care and don't gouge you price-wise. Try and give a darn and care and DO BETTER. (Please note: owner didn't address any of the issues that were brought up in this just defensive reply sigh, includes one I brought up inperson, fact of the matter is staff/manager did NOT have decency to even reach out to me about problems including damage to item my dog went to daycare with, I specifically asked for someone to ring me, no one did even after 2weeks, that's what I realized I had been hoodwinked- everything mentioned true. There is no point communicating to staff FYI, they again Do Not Respond, so bizarre, never experienced that before- totally unprofessional and not the way ones runs a business. And there are most definitely others w/ similar experiences to mine, again please reference earlier mentioned Google review(s), there is absolutely no defense whatsoever to what happened & clearly no changes have transpired since that horrible experience yikes, no apologies given either, just arrogance and lack of acknowledgement of clear problems, so obviously no fixes set up (if you have a camera at frontdesk, review the footage, the staff are NOT nice, NOT friendly, it is a fact- we humans and animals deserve better.)-take care.

They are ALWAYS excited to see my pups and my grand pups! They are very engaging and greet every dog by their name. Which I find so cute!!! One of my favorite things about Dog Dayze is the themed events such as "Jurassic Bark", "Bark Week" and just last week "Dolly Dayze"! Every aspect of the week centers around the theme.... from the very cool decorations, to treats, to craft projects AND a FREE professional photo of my babies at the end of the week. I can only imagine how much thought and preparation goes into these special events! The General Manager and ALL the staff make it FUN for everyone, dog and human alike! There are some add on enrichment activities BUT those are OPTIONAL. Every dog in daycare participates whether the parent adds on an activity or not! Daycare prices are reasonable, comparable and may even be less - I'm not sure because I am NOT shopping for a new day care! I have no concerns about how they are cared for when they're there. When I pick up my furry babies, they are ALWAYS happy and worn out from playing all day. I would HIGHLY recommend Dog Dayze to ANYONE!

Leaving your dogs with someone else is never easy. They're not just pets--they're family. As dog…read moreparents, trusting someone with them takes a lot. That's why finding Judy has meant so much to us. From the moment we met Judy, we knew our dogs were in the best hands. The love, patience, and kindness she shows them is something you can't fake. She doesn't just "watch" your dogs--she truly cares for them and treats them like they're her own. Our dog Dant'e can be a lovable, goofy, sometimes stubborn boy, but Judy understands him and gives him the attention, care, and affection he needs. It's clear he feels comfortable and happy with her, and that means everything to us. Every time we come home, Dant'e is relaxed, happy, and clearly well loved. Seeing how excited he is to see Judy again tells us everything we need to know. The peace of mind Judy gives us while we're away is priceless. Knowing someone is there loving on our dog, making sure he's safe, comfortable, and cared for means the world to us. We are beyond grateful to have found someone so trustworthy, compassionate, and truly amazing with animals. If you're looking for someone who will love your dogs like family, Judy is the person you want. We wouldn't trust our fur baby with anyone else.
