Quality Pet Care

Pet care experience

I have had dogs and cats all my life, I presently live with my sister who has 2 dogs Tia a miniature poodle and Toby a yorkie mix. I love taking them for walks and have been part of their training since they were puppies. When I was teaching I always had pets in the classroom as I felt it was important to introduce young children to the responsibility of looking after animals.

Pat did an excellent job of house sitting and taking care of our little dog "Cocoa". She sent frequent updates, with photos, of Cocoa activities to show how well she was getting along with us gone for two weeks. When we got home our house was clean and neat and Cocoa as the happy little dog that we had left in Pat's care. We would recommend her for taking care of anyone's pets. Thank you.

Pat was absolutely the best sitter we could have chosen for our little guy! She was super at communicating and sending us pictures. She left our home neat and tidy and we would love to have her back next time we are away! We highly recommend!

According to Bailey, our Maltese, Pat treated him with attention and affection like never before (except from us) while we were away on Christmas vacation: he frankly hated to see her leave. Pat responded to our enquiry promptly and met with us on two occasions to get all the details regarding staying in our home, including Bailey's culinary details and exercise and sleeping preferences. Upon our return we found everything as we had left it and a very happy Bailey eager to have us go on another vacation in order to have fun with Pat again. We highly recommend Pat as she saved the situation for us. Initially, we did some "interviews" with a local kennel but were rejected since all Bailey did during the "all day trial" was try to escape. On future trips, Pat will be the first person we'll contact for the job.

Pat managed our anxious little dog so well. The house was kept just as we left it.
