“I am a basket case when it comes to leaving my dogs for vacation because I don't trust anyone to pet sit in my house or feel assured that they would take care of my dogs the way I would. I'm a big believer that pets are members of the family. Their comfort, their health, and minimizing their level of stress are important to my wife and I. In the past, whenever I make reservations for vacation, I expect them to be with my kids and NEVER IN A KENNEL OR FACILITY with other stressed out barking dogs. They are my babies!!! You know what I mean. Recently, we visited my daughter at her college dorm where dogs aren't allowed and I was distraught. Hence, this review. I need to give a big SHOUT OUT to Mary's pet services because MARY IS AMAZING. My dogs are welcomed into her home, an environment with a professional handler (i.e. Mary) plus interactive kids who love the dogs! I couldn't be happier leaving my babies with them again and at short notice. Also, the price was reasonable. Another rocking 5 stars for Mary's pet service. Under Mary's care, my pets were not only safe, but my mind was at ease (especially with my 17 yearly grandma dog). Priceless.”
“Actually, I gave them 20 stars plus! They were great! Beautiful family, that loves dogs. Our dogs were fine and happy when we picked them up. We could tell they got a lot of love there!”
“Ivy took great care of my Murphy. She was so good with communication and sending me pictures during his stay! She took our booking last minute after a cancellation and she did a great job! We will definitely be coming back!”
“Leslie and her family were great with our dog. She was extremely flexible with our travel schedule and provided a fun, safe, comfortable stay for our pup! We will be using her again!”
“Becky and John were great! The first night my dog had gotten very sick and they took all the right steps to ensure my little guy was taken care of. It made the stress of our trip and being away from our dogs easier knowing they were in such caring hands.”
“Tammy did a great job and Mutley loved being with her and her dogs. Tammy has a good understanding of dogs and their needs; therefore, you can feel comfortable letting her care for your dog. I would thoroughly recommend using Tammy for your boarding needs - I will certainly use her services again for Mutley.”
“Thanks Jennifer and Austin P. I recently had the pleasure of having my dog, Rocket, babysat for over five plus days, and I couldn't be more grateful for the exceptional care provided. Jennifer and Austin went above and beyond in every aspect. Morning and evening updates, complete with adorable pictures, kept me connected and reassured that Rocket was having a fantastic time. What stood out most was the attention to detail, especially concerning Rocket's special diet. It's rare to find someone who not only understands the importance of such needs but also executes them flawlessly. The peace of mind I had during those five days was priceless. Overall, the level of care, love, and professionalism shown was outstanding. I highly recommend their services to any pet owner who wants the best for their furry family member. Thank you for making Rocket's stay a joyful and worry-free experience!”
“Can’t say enough about how much my Fur baby loves her second home. Always treated like she is their own full of love and affection. Trusting these two with your animal is the best decision you can make. They are are wonderful.”
“Dropped my dog off for a weekend. I got pictures and updates. She looked like she had a great time and came home tired. I would definitely recommend and will be using again. Thanks Chandler for taking care of my baby!”
“Esequias and Lisa are wonderful. Our fur baby is 3 years old and had never been with anyone but us. They alleviated any fears we had. Esequias came to our house to meet us and Hook, then we dropped him at their house for a few hours to see how he would adjust. They even picked him up when it was time for us to leave on our trip. They sent pics while we were gone. They treated him like one of their own. I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Angel did an amazing job watching our dog Natsu! She sent pictures and gave regular updates on how he was doing. She responded quickly when I sent messages to her. Natsu was happy and content during his stay. We could not be more happy with the care she provided him while we were gone. We will definitely look for her the next time we are going out of town for Natsu.”
“Jamie was the best sitter for Zeno she's loved him and was patient with him when he made mistakes .she is a good communicator too she was letting me know through out the day how he was doing . She was understanding and helpful .last but not least the best sitter I would recommend:)).”
“Maisy was VERY comfortable at Yvonne’s house! Her lab was a fun playmate and her daughter let Maisy sleep with her. Yvonne was so easy to communicate with too. We will definitely be booking more overnight stays at Yvonne’s house!”
“Gayle, thank you for taking care of our little guy in a pinch. Really appreciate all the care and love you gave him especially the trips over to the doggie park. Sounds like he really enjoyed himself.”
“Erika is amazing! She has been watching our dog at a consistent basis now 😂 our dog loves going to her home. I recommend her 5/5 due to the care she has given our dog and treating him like her own.”
“Sarah was wonderful! I know our dog had a great time with her and her sweet pup! She updated with pictures frequently and was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. I am so thankful to have found her!”
“She was absolutely fantastic and so accommodating for our girls! She was even flexible to add another night when we came back to A/C issues. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Luda is AMAZING! She takes such good care of our dog (Papos). Papos had to take medicine when we had to leave, and Luda had no problem giving him the pills he needed. We have booked Luda three times by now and will continue to contact her. 100% recommended!”
