    Cosi in Shasta's care.
    Tucker J.

    Shasta has been a godsend for our pups, Cosita and Joe. Cosi used to be totally agro-punk, beating up on her homies for no good reason, and killing skunks in our backyard just to tick us off. But then Shasta came along, and now she's the goofiest, sweetest girl there has ever been. Cosi, not Shasta. So, when we adopted Joe as a puppy, we knew exactly into whose hands we needed to entrust him. He is growing up to be a wonderful dog. He's hyper as hell, but that's not Shasta's fault. He's a puppy. And puppies have energy. Much more energy than their old, decrepit parents. Anyway, Shasta has always been wonderful about not just training our dogs, but training us. She will take as much time as needed to make sure that you are thoroughly competent and confident in the techniques needed to train your pup. She makes sure that you create a bond with your dog, so that they don't just look at her as the boss. To make a long story short: Shasta has a magic touch with the pups in her care. She has turned a family on the verge of giving up into one close-knit group. Shasta is Aces.

    She feels right at home.

    We couldn't recommend Doggy Lama Pet Care more, what a wonderful organization. Molly and all the…read moreemployees are amazing. Their pricing is more than reasonable, and the services are the best. Molly was recommended by a friend as "the dog whisperer" and that is correct. We have a little senior guy who loves other doggo's but doesn't have any teeth to defend himself, so it has been really difficult to find a boarder for him to be safe. Even having friends who he is familiar with staying at the house hasn't worked out. Insert Doggy Lama. We did a trial run of boarding with Molly, and he passed so we were able to schedule a weeklong vacation knowing he would have the best time. He got to hang out with some other senior dogs and have long walks in the wilderness and lots of doggo time. Molly kept us posted daily with pictures of our little man being a dog. The experience way outperformed expectations. We are working to sign our guy up for some walking adventures throughout the week. Go see Doggy Lama for all your needs.

    We absolutely love Molly and the whole Doggy Lama team! From the very beginning, Molly has been so…read morecommunicative, kind, and flexible and she always sends the best photo updates that brighten our day. When Wilma first started going to Molly, she was a shy and timid pup who wasn't comfortable being off leash. Over time, with Molly's patience and care (and the help of Fabrizzio and the other amazing walkers), Wilma has grown so much in confidence. She now happily runs with the pack (with a long lead) and adores her boarding stays with Molly. I think she's sad when she leaves! We're so grateful for Doggy Lama and the great care and service they provide. It truly feels like Wilma is part of a second family. We can't recommend Doggy Lama enough!

    I had the pleasure of using Teairra's services yesterday for a nail trim for my 6 year old Tabby -…read moreMiss Lucy. For context- Lucy has always been an inside cat with little exposure to lots of people since I adopted her. A year and a 1/2 ago, I moved back in with my Mom and it took her a whole year for Mom to gain her trust. So that said- she is NOT fan of car rides to the vet for things like exams and nail trims. Last year, I decided to opt for a mobile vet service and it worked out well. Fast forward a few weeks ago, walking around the lake and I stumble upon this sign advertising affordable nail trims and pet walks for the fur babies. Immediately, I went to Yelp to check them out and verify if they were legit and the reviews put me at ease. I decided to contact Teairra a couple of days ago about doing my baby's nail trim and she talked me through the expectations of the process and I was on board ( I would need to hold my baby while she did the nail trim- my baby does not like me to hold her- SIGH) Needless to say, I had major anxiety. She showed up yesterday, on time- and had such a calming presence about her while I explained Lucy's background with strangers. Immediately, she came in talking very softly slowly gaining Lucy's trust with treats and sniffs. She showed me how to wrap Lucy in a burrito like style while she trimmed her nails and I kissed Lucy's nose. She exuded great kindness and patience. After, she sat by Lucy feeding her treats to continuously gain her trust even after the visit. Excited to know she also does house visits and I will be using her next time I go on an extended vacation. Lucy doesn't warm up to many people but Teairra has a gift and a calling. WE THANK YOU!

    Our cat, Rufus, loves Bill, the pet sitter from Mother's Love for your Pet. I really liked the way…read morewe got to meet him before the first gig. He's very reliable and always makes sure that Rufus is getting attention and affection - something that he didn't get from other pet sitters. They were also able to handle pop-up travel - another plus. My only negative - and it's more of an industry thing perhaps - is that it's costly - $25/day. That really adds up when I have to be on the road for a couple of weeks. That said, I would MUCH rather pay MLFYP that amount than, say, a kennel or PetSmart. Overall, they've been great and I'd definitely recommend them highly.

    My last review of Mothers Love was in 2009, so I want to update it…read more It has now been 20 years that I have been a customer and I will continue to do so. My latest sitters Bill and Nancy are wonderful with my 3 cats. My cats are very shy, and I know that Bill or Nancy do everything they can to respect that and try to make a connection with them on their visits. Sometimes one of the cats might want to play or get petted or maybe not. They are always well cared for and I can relax on my trips knowing they are in the best hands. They want to know in detail every detail of the routine, so they can make sure things are normal as expected for the kitties. When I get home there is a handwritten letter on my table from the sitter, telling me welcome home and some stories of how it went while I was gone. The founder/owner Wendy is one of the nicest most caring people I have ever met. Her love of animals and her experience and knowledge is obvious and as a pet-parent that gives me peace of mind. I would highly recommend Wendy and Mothers Love.

From day one, Roy made us feel completely at ease. He sent daily photos and videos of Dior having the time of his life with his furry friends, which was huge for us since Dior never really got to socialize like that before. Seeing him so happy, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying himself made all the difference. Roy clearly loves what he does and treats the dogs like his own. We couldn't have asked for a better first boarding experience and will 100% be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a place where their dog will be truly cared for.

Roy at PawPaw is truly amazing and the only person I trust. I came home to a beautiful, clean and better dog than when I left!! It's like she remembers her early training again-- she sits on command, is quiet on command (now HOW did you do that??!!) and is just perfect!! Holy cow!! Roy sends pictures and videos every day so you know that she is safe and happy. I loved seeing her "tucked in" at night with the other pups. I don't trust anyone else with my dog other than family and Roy. Thank you for taking such great care of my dog. I appreciate it more than you know.
