I Travel frequently during the year and it is wonderful that I can completely trust them to take care of my babies while I'm away. I receive updates & pics on each visit along with a summary of the visit. They will water my outdoor plants when needed and check my mail. I am grateful for their service and I can enjoy my trip knowing my babies are being lovingly cared for. Needless to say, I highly recommend Karla's Pet Care.

After some shaky experiences with Rover, I was wary about turning to another pet sitting service,…read morebut my goodness, Karla's Pet Care restored my faith. Our fam met with Kayla and Matthew a few days before our 3-day trip and instantly got great vibes as they patiently answered our questions and got familiar with our senior Schnauzer Terrier's routine and med schedule. While away, we received detailed morning, midday and evening updates with photos and videos. We really felt as if Karla's staff had the best interest of our pooch at heart and did not just go through the motions. We will continue to use them whenever the need arises. This is one pet service that will put your mind at ease.

We took an 8 day trip back East and normally we would leave our dogs at the kernel at our Vet, but since we've added a bird and puppy recently, we decided to give PetWatch 916 a try. Jessica kept us at ease and we never had to worry about our babies as we could tell by her daily texts and pictures she truly cared about our pets and we knew they were in good hands. We will definitely call them again for our next trip out of town that we can't take them with us.

This review is long overdue. Lori has been walking our weimaraner and pet sitting our 2 cats a…read morelittle over a year now. My family moved to Elk Grove 2 years ago. Before that, my husband and I worked different schedules so we never needed a dog walker. We both took about a year off after moving before heading back into full-time work. When we decided to go back to work and realized we would have the same schedule, we knew we had to find someone to walk our dog Mon-Fri. I called several people, asked a lot of questions and met a few of them. Lori was very patient with all my questions and our dog absolutely loved her. It was important to us to find the right person because our dog started having separation anxiety after our move. She was tearing up her crate, which made us very nervous to leave her. We felt like we were tied to the house all the time and even mounted a camera in the living room so we could check on her when we were out! (We've since retrained her to like her crate again.) Lori started walking our dog once a week and moved to 5 days once my husband and I were both working. During the first few weeks of my new job I continued to check our camera to see how our dog was doing while we were gone. And I have to admit that I did check a few times to see how long Lori was out with our dog. I feel weird about that now, but we didn't know Lori so well yet and she totally could have said she was walking our dog for 45 minutes and only go for 20, and we wouldn't have known. But she never cuts the time short. She always has our dog out for as long as she was scheduled for. Over the past year Lori has been a HUGE asset to our family. I don't believe she's ever cancelled a walk, so she is extremely reliable. She feeds our cats their lunch every day when she comes to take our dog out. When we go on vacation, she boards our dog and visits our cats. She even gave one of our cats medication when he needed it. Lori often sends heart-warming photos of our dog while she's out with her. She keeps our dog safe and comfortable by playing with her inside when the weather is extreme. And I know our dog adores Lori because when I'm home sick I get to see how excited she is when Lori arrives. We rely on Lori so much that I honestly don't know what we would do if we ever lost her. P.S. For those of you who haven't checked out her website yet and are wondering how much she charges... she's very affordable. We do $15 for 45 minutes. I've seen some walkers charge $25 for a 30 minute walk! We are by no means well off, so with how often Lori walks our dog, we really appreciate her fair prices!

We recently booked with Lucky Buddy Petcare for a vacation and am glad we gave them a chance!…read more We first met the owner Janet and loved her vibe. My main concern was our dogs not being comfortable with the rotation of different pet sitters, so I expressed that concern with Janet and figured out a plan to prepare our dogs. We ended up booking walks for our dogs to meet with the different sitters they may encounter during our vacation. Each walker/sitter we met was equally friendly and our three German shepherds had no issue with either one of them. We received reports after each visit, which we appreciated. What I do appreciate most about Lucky Buddy Petcare is that we're not dependent on one person's schedule while planning. The booking process is super easy through their website. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a pet sitting company!

I am grateful to have found Janet and her team to walk and stay overnight with my smart, loving and rambunctious Aussie, Jake. Jake loved his walks and especially enjoyed his time with Janet and Kathleen when they stayed with him when I went on my first trip in years because I would not board him. I told my friends I thought he was two-timing me because he was so happy and relaxed when I arrived home. I also had a dog walker come every day at Janet's suggestion while I was away and I truly appreciate the time and care these young women gave to Jake during that time and his regular walks. Sadly, Jake is no longer with me. He was only six years old but he had a medical condition that was lurking, unknown and undiagnosed until it suddenly appeared shattering my world. My first call was to my friend, a retired vet, who told me the likely diagnoses. My second call was to Janet who told me where the best ER animal hospital was located and provided additional emotional support. Janet continued to reach out and check to see if I was alright after I had to make a pet owner's most dreaded decision. She is not kidding in her business info when she says she will be there for you.

Eric Valdes is THE man for your dog walking needs in Laguna West!…read more I found him through Yelp and messaged him looking for a lunchtime dog walker for my energetic 3yo pup while I was at work. He's in such high demand that he only walks dogs in Laguna West. He was SO prompt in his reply and professional. When my dog and I met him for our complimentary meet and greet a few days later, he was very polite, gentle, and calm with my dog as she is usually friendly but anxious-shy with anyone new right off the bat. He spends a full 30min with your dog during the walk rain or shine, and he charges the lowest rates I've seen with all the dog walkers in the area. He doesn't ask for much because he does it genuinely to help out us humans. He is very prompt with communication, easy to reach via phone and has demonstrated trustworthy qualities from the start. Support your local dog walker. I love that all of his earnings go towards him and not some nebulous company, and I always try to tip. I definitely recommend him for anyone with dogs needing walking or running. He didn't have to run my dog, but he so graciously did. Eric also sent me pics of my pup while I was at work and that gave me total peace of mind. He is indeed licensed and insured for those who are wondering. Reach out to Eric and you won't need to worry about your pup. Thanks Eric.

We've seen veterinarian come and go but each doctor has had love and compassion for our furry family members. Just recently we had to come to terms of letting our beloved Marshmellow go; but thru the entire process their staff was by our side to provide support, understanding, & sympathy. Please note that calling in to schedule appointment or to get information can seem painful since wait time can feel ridiculous (15++ minute wait) even though they usually have 3 to 4 representatives working the front area: taking calls, checking in patients, etc. But we overlook this because their service outweighs the wait time on the phone. We look forward to returning with a new furry family member...when the time is right!

"The better I get to know men, the more I find myself loving dogs." - Charles de Gaulle…read more After meeting my fair share on FarmersOnly.com, OurTime.com, and PositiveSingles.com, I decided to switch dating sites and look on Petfinder.com. There were a few cuties that I could see potentially growing into a serious relationship. So I sold myself as much as I could on their online form and waited anxiously for them to respond. 3 days wait is the general rule before calling right? I decided to take my little man with me to see if I had his approval before cheating on him with another lifelong commitment. The place was a bit out in the boonies and looks like someone turned their barn-home into a rescue shelter. But Kritter Kamp is a no-kill rescue place so it's worth the drive. The place is a bit overwhelming with tons of little guys yapping away inside the building. But I was just glad that they were kept INSIDE the building and not in outdoor kennels. I was surprised to see they offer boarding and grooming services as well. They have a grassy fenced off play-area where I was introduced to my list of potential suitors. My little man wasn't interested in being compatible with any of them and they seem to not care as well. He was more interested in sniffing the grass than sniffing their butts. After I exhausted my list of potentials without even coming close to a match, one of the KK staff said she noticed that I had a type- I like 'em hairy! She told me she'd bring out a new one they just recently rescued from the Sac shelter. Out comes "Cha-Cha", a white furball with mattes all over her feet. She was so friendly, coming up to me all wiggly-butt and waggy. And she loved my little man, following him around everywhere! I originally didn't want to swing that way and wanted males only, but she was such a sweetheart and it just felt right. The heart doesn't lie, ya'll. Turns out she had only been at Kritter Kamp for 2 days and they hadn't even gotten a chance to fully groom her yet or socialize her. She only trusted Betty. I could tell the KK staff really cares about animals by how they handled the dogs and how they grilled me with questions before allowing me to bring her home. But I was able to take her home the same day with a $200 adoption fee to cover for her shots and spay. She hadn't even gotten spayed yet, but the ladies at KK assured me they would call me to set up an appointment with SPCA to have her spayed. Sure enough, a few days later, I dropped her back at KK and they had her spayed and returned within a day with all the paperwork. And despite the many dogs at KK and how little time they had to make her all pretty and adoptable, she came home without fleas! Now that says a lot about the place. Two years later and then-Cha-Cha-but-now-Lola has proven to be one of the best life choices I've made. She fits so well with the family. So if you find that Match.com ain't matching so well, go adopt and you'll find a devoted partner who'll love you unconditionally. You save them, they save you. What a wonderful thing.
