One a 13 year old, cantankerous little girl, the other a one year old boy who is nothing but a lovable troublemaker. Well, I have this thing called work so I told my wife to find a dog walker. Missy at My Pets Friend in Warrenton promptly responded to our inquiry. Conscientious, professional and punctual, our dogs were treated to mid day walks, a rewarding treat and fresh water in their pen. A detailed report of their daily activities (to include gastrointestinal successes in the field) was left on my table to peruse every night, and my wife delighted in me reading them to her across the pond.

We cannot say enough great things about Cyndi and her staff at Dog Walkers of Virginia.This is THE…read moreBEST dog walking service you could have! My husband and I have a very busy schedule and Cyndi has been more than accommodating to our schedule as well as last minute requests (that we make OFTEN)! We were so nervous about letting someone come into our home when we are not there and take responsibility for our dogs. Once we met Cyndi and saw her with our dogs, all of our worries were put to rest. Now we could not imagine anyone else ever taking care of them other then us. Times that I have still been home when she arrives, our dogs cannot wait for her to come through the door. They love her! And she certainly loves them as well. They come back from their walk tired and happy and that makes me very happy! If you love your pets you'll want them to be taken care of by Dog Walkers of Virginia!

My trip was cancelled on Monday, October 17, 2016, and I called Cyndi before noon the same day to inform her that I would not need her pet sitting services. She informed me that I would receive a refund and my house key. I checked my bank account early Monday to determine how much cash I would need for my trip before it was cancelled, and noticed she had already deposited my check on Sunday. I was required to pay up-front for pet sitting services. It is Thursday, October 20, 2016, and no house key or refund has arrived. I called Cyndi Andrews to ask where my house key and refund were, and she said she didn't know. She explained that refunds can take up to 2 weeks to process by someone else. I obviously became angry because "someone else" has my house key as well as my money. Cyndi Andrews hung up on me, and blocked my number. This is no way to do business, especially when it involves a customer's house keys. I am having my door locks replaced. I would NOT recommend doing business with Dog Walkers of VA due to their questionable business practices. I am also posting this to Facebook.

I have a cat that doesn't like people (except for me) and it's been hard for me to decide whether…read moreto board him or find a sitter. After I had made an appointment for boarding for 9 days (he'd be in a little room with a window to the outside) I decided to look for a sitter. I do not feel comfortable hiring any one of the (seems like) hundreds of teens or young adults that gig as a pet sitter; I was looking for a company that has experience and a good reputation. I thought the name of the company was odd, but I sent an email to the owner and she responded instantly and when I told her about my cat's issues she said she had the perfect "cat whisperer" for me. Done Deal! They came over for a meet and greet, we agreed to the terms and that was it! I left written instructions; the cat sitter checked in with me to confirm the start date. Every day I got a report (sometimes twice a day) and a report about what my little "angel" was up to. It was comforting to be so far away knowing he was being well cared for, personality and all. Best part, upon my return, everything was neat and clean- even in the litter room, so no messes for me to recover from. Thanks MMDP for helping me with dear George. I'll be calling on your services anytime I need a sitter for the precious little guy. Also of note, this company doesn't put you through an interrogation just to get an appointment, you don't need codes and lockboxes, and the prices were very reasonable. Thanks guys- you are the best!

DO NOT USE THIS PET CARE SERVICE. I board my pony at a Warrenton, VA area barn that used Zorgers…read morePet Care Service to provide twice a day feed/water service while the barn owner was away. The barn owner is excellent about communication, and related he was very concerned about booking them because their service has taken a steep nose dive. They had been booked for service in June and did not show up on scheduled dates, but luckily other barn workers were there to cover for them. If not, my pony and the other animals would have suffered. The Zorgers Pet Care Service owner explained it was all a big misunderstanding and our barn owner reluctantly booked again (it was too late to arrange another service for July). Communication from Zorgers was spotty, and very unfortunately again a feeding/watering was missed. Luckily a veterinarian was at the barn and spotted the distress the animals were in and corrected the situation. I am told that Zorgers offered no excuse, billed for the no-shows, and when confronted with all of this replied 'we've never had any problems. People love us.' If you do use this service, pay attention to the red flags. And don't say you weren't warned.

Careful of reviews. I was at first awed by the stellar reviews of Zorger's Pet Care LLC…read more What my dog and I experienced was something completely opposite. Nikki Zorger reportedly a licensed veterinary technician in Virginia and the owner made time to meet and greet my cherished dog and me. I truly valued what I perceived as caregiver who was warm, loving, and compassionate in ensuring quality care for living creatures. I entrusted Nikki and her company Zorger's Pet Care LLC to two (2) 30 min walks for 3 days a week, no feeding, freshening water and giving treat. I was delighted to receive walking reports and photo. The price was awesome, and now I think probably too good to be true--it was indeed. I began to notice the emergency pee pads completely saturated upon my return. This raised my concern when I knew my sweet girl hated to urinate inside the house and had rarely ever used the absorbent pads. I attributed this increased urination due to increased water consumption due to the increased exercise she was supposedly getting. I WAS WRONG. Completely Wrong. On 10/13/21 Nikki Zorger of Zorger's Pet Care LLC was to provide 2 x 30 min walks; the first between 10AM-1PM & The second between 3PM-6PM. I received an emailed report that the first walk went fine with reports of my dogs urination and defecation and general well being. On 10/13/21 I received a call from my housekeepers who had met Nikki once. They notified me at 5pm that no one had yet come to walk my dog. I drove home arriving at 5:30PM. I met with the housekeepers and they said no one has come from 3:04 pm to 5:30PM for the second walk.. I waited until 6PM. At 6PM I emailed Nikki asking what time my dog had last been walked. Nikki's email reply stated "around 4pmish" I called and emailed and texted asking for Zorger's Pet Care to help me understand the discrepancy and incongruency in her email. I had no response from Zorger's Pet Care. I did receive an email the following day. I was informed that Nikki had completed the first walk but had an emergency requiring her to go out of town and that she had made arrangements for Holly to walk my dog for the second walk. Who is Holly? She said she would speak with Holly in the AM upon her return. and she would have to "wrap her head around" a client receiving a visit report for a visit not completed. In her late night email, Nikki explained her emergency and how she contacted her administrative team to make arrangements to cover the remaining appointments. Nikki stated Holly was the walker.....who is Holly? I was informed they were unable to contact Holly nor could they locate her and she had my keys. Holly had been entrusted with the care of my dog without my knowledge and in possession of my keys. I experienced 3 separate occasions of saturated wet pads which makes me believe "Holly" had been providing the routine care. The 10/13/21 event confirmed the lies from Nikki and Zorger's Pet Care LLC . On 10/13/21 I received false documentation of services and billing for services that were never provided. I was informed that Nikki was not my dogs care giver after agreeing it would be only Nikki and if not, I would be notified if it weould be someone other than Nikki as in case of emergency. If not, I would be given the opportunity to meet the individual. Neither notification of emergency nor change in caregiver nor opportunity to meet ever occurred. Zorger's Pet Care LLC without my knowledge gave my keys to 'Holly" .I asked for return of my keys and was informed by Zorger's Pet Care LLC, Holly could not be contacted nor located and they were trying to meet with Holly. A report was filed with local police to have on record since my keys were given to someone without my knowledge and who could not be contacted/ located . The following Monday, i received emailed and photo confirmation that my keys had been secured. I received them via certified mail on Tuesday. The erroneous billing of services that were not provided were corrected and invoice was paid in full. From other reviews and my own experience, unfortunately, it appears there are frequent emergencies which disrupt the care operations of Zorger's Pet Care LLC, it's unfortunate for the animals who depend upon this care. Please Practice having a questioning attitude when reading these reviews. I wish I had. I'm grateful my cherished dog is not hurt. I am grateful she did not experience any greater neglect in her care from what I thought was a reputable pet care service. What hurts more is to think of the well being of vulnerable living creatures who are entrusted into the care of Zorger's Pet Care LLC and other pet care companies. Their loving owners who want only the best for their pets from companies whose owners either don't care themselves or do not care to perform due diligence on their employees.

They're very professional, kind, and communicative. They helped us care for three chinchillas, two cats, and one very high energy dog. They even helped us out on holiday weekends when they could have been spending time with their own families. During the first visit, I messaged to see how my kiddos were doing, and they responded super fast to update me. They also told me when they were planning to see the kiddos next. I never worried when my pets were under the care of Happy Paws staff. Much to my surprise, there was a notebook with notes from each visit. They would note if my dog went #1 and/or #2 on her walk, and they would let me know when they last cleaned our cats' litter boxes if we had them watching the critters for several days.
