I have so many selfish reasons to not share this review and make Kim even more busy than she…read morealready is. But my goodness! She is a miracle worker. She took our sweet, shy, overly anxious little pup and made him feel at home within a short son of three weeks (2-3 times exposure for day care) before we let him stay overnight. She has been a godsend and I know that I can rest easy when our little fur baby is in her good hands.

When I used this service: March 1-5 Why I chose Bowser's: I…read moredid 1-2 hours of research: Yelp reviews, calling friends from the dog park/other contacts, etc., and Kim always came highly recommended. Matt from Pawfection told me he refers all his clients to her who are looking for longer pet sitting, and no one has come back disappointed. Overall impression: I cannot speak more highly of Kimberley and Bowser's Buddy Pet Care! She was extremely professional and accommodating and made me feel like part of the Bowser's family from day one! More details: Kimberley is the epitome of professionalism. I really appreciated how she: - validated my sad feelings that I couldn't take him on the trip - had me over the weekend before my trip to see her space and meet the other dogs she was currently taking care of - was in constant contact about times/dates and how my dog Reeses was doing while I was gone - communicated (quickly) with me whenever I sent her a text message or gave her a call - loves my dog like her own (and he loves her back!) Pro-tip: Kim's place is dog HEAVEN. Very dog-friendly and lots of things to keep them entertained and comfortable: doggy door, fenced-in grassy yard, orthopedic beds, etc. etc. She doesn't give discounts, but it's totally worth the price, and that's coming from a med student in tons of debt currently!

This is a review for Jennifer. Our initial get-to-know-you meeting went well, and she was prompt in…read moreemailing me her references. I thought we were all set for going away, but then she emails to say that she's changed her mind -- she's not comfortable with pet sitting for us since our cat is elderly, and she can't be sure about any potential health problems. Jennifer is not bonded and insured, so I understand her position. However, it left us scrambling for other pet sitting options.

Laurie is absolutely amazing! She watched several of my guinea pigs for me while I was on work…read moretrips. She took really good care of them and you could tell how much she loves animals. She watched them for me while I went on about 7 work trips throughout the last year. She was always flexible with her schedule and quickly responded to my emails. I would trust her so much with any pets I have in the future.

Lisa is an amazing pet sitter and I would highly recommend her services!…read more I hired Lisa to take care of my cat for 3 weeks while I was away on a trip overseas. Lisa came to our house for a meet and greet before I left and got along really well with my cat. Lisa is also super friendly and I felt very comfortable leaving my cat with her. She sent daily photos and videos of my cat and was very easy to communicate with, even while I was out of the country. It gave me great peace of mind while traveling! Lisa also noticed small things like recommending a new scratching post for my cat, which was very helpful. I would definitely use Lisa's services again if I have another trip, and I would recommend to others as well!

We recently went on a trip and Michael C. from The Pet Nanny was our cats' caregiver. We were…read morethrilled right from the start with his gentle demeanor, with the questions he asked about our cats' needs, and with his ease at establishing rapport with our cats. He learned the complex medications schedule for our cat who has cancer, and he sent us photos of our cats every time he visited so that we could see that they were thriving in his care. We will definitely want to work with him again in the future. Many thanks!

I was also able to view my pet on the webcam app whenever I wanted to. Pros: They have a human sleeping with the dogs at night.

My dog looked happy and well fed when I picked her up.

They stayed at our home -- the vet recommended that he would be most comfortable in his own home -- and they followed our instructions, walked him daily, and sent daily photos of him while we traveled. We were so relieved to know that he was being well cared for. We would most definitely recommend Lucy and Crew for your pet care needs.

Even when we were in Japan, we received phone calls, many pictures and video to show us how he is doing. It sounds like Duckey was stressed out for 1st day & he was not trying to eat or move but Chelsea and her family made sure he eats and drinks. After a couple of day, he got used to the new environment & her family and he was happy to spend time with them. They made us feel comfortable to enjoy our trip. It was a great experience. I really appreciate they provided the excellent care for him.
