Sometimes, I feel like a bad cat mom. I mean, I pet my cats, and I feed them twice a day, and I…read moreplay with them and talk to them (though not in that weird possessed-baby voice that some people use with their pets)... but sometimes, I just think that they don't get pampered the way they should. You know, like when I go out of town. After having preyed on the kindness of friends and family alike for years, I finally decided it was time to find a pet sitter. I found Bone Star through http://www.austinpetsitters.org. While I was hesitant about just picking somebody out from a list (after thorough website and photo scrutiny, of course), I thought, "Well, it can't hurt to just meet them face to face and see what the kitties think." And I was amazed. My two boys are pretty nervous around most people - one much more than the other (to date, he hadn't willingly let anyone else but me pet him). As soon as Raynor walked in the door, they both sort of scooted out of the room - but after her being there for less than 20 minutes, they were practically eating out of her hand! She has a genuine passion for animals, and it shows. I left my kitties in her care while I was gone for a 5-day weekend, and I returned to find them with little kitty smiles on their faces. Raynor had left a detailed diary of her comings and goings, and evidently, they just loved her. Even my nervous one let her pet him! Having her come by to feed, pet, and play with my kitties while I was gone gave me a peace of mind that - as the previous reviewer wrote - was priceless. And best of all, It made me feel like a good cat mom all over again. Thanks, Raynor!

We are (relatively) new to Austin and needed a sitter for our three cats for the weekend. After…read moredoing some research, I decided to invite Raynor for an interview. We hit it off immediately, no need for any other interviews. I like the forms she offers and the information she asks for. She leaves detailed notes about who did what, who was hiding, etc. The hiding cats warmed up to her faster than I thought they would. I am so glad we found someone we can trust and our cats like. Makes it so much easier to relax on vacation!

I knew I had to get my Beau his exercise so I researched and found Game Time. Amy and her crew have been GREAT!! I was a bit concerned because of Beau's reactivity to other dogs, but they know how to handle it--probably better than I! Beau loves his walks with his upbeat and joyful walkers and Amy is so quick to respond to any questions I have or changes I need to make. Communication has been so easy. Such a relief!! Gets my highest recommendation.

The most telling thing for us, as we (pre-Covid) travel a lot, is that when we come home, all worried, the two dogs, cat and turtle are all completely relaxed, yawning, chill. They LOVE their Auntie Catherine. She knows medicines and can give. She once stayed at our house with a dog that got ill that day while we were gone, until 11pm. We have used her service for 14 years. She rescues all kinds of animals including a donkey at her nearby farm. Very awesome person, we're lucky to have her, but our furr (and scale) babies are the really lucky ones.

Thank you for 10 years of loving our girls, Catherine! We simply don't know what we'd do without you!

Can I give them ten stars?! I won't lie, part of me kind of doesn't want to write this or say…read moreanything because I don't want to have to fight for my baby to have a great place to stay, but also as a truly psycho pet parent...I know, I'll own it... this place made my heart so happy. This was my third or fourth (can't even remember the others were so traumatizing) doggy daycare to visit. This is the only one that didn't instantly hit me in the face with the smell of urine or wet dog...eww. Also, this one has amazing staff members that actually seem happy in their jobs, not just hating their lives and overwhelmed by dogs. BHV takes a completely different approach to daycare than the others I saw. They keep the dogs in play groups of no more than 8-10 dogs. Others literally got as high as 40! I had a baby anxiety attack just watching it on the monitors. They let the play groups go outside and run around for around 20 minutes and play really hard, then that group goes back to their individual dog set up, which is NOT a crate! It's this precious little white picket fence area where the fence is 4-5 feet tall...pending height of the animals (they have a room for big dogs and a room for small dogs). You bring your baby's bed, stuffed toys, snacks, whatever they need, they provide water bowls, food bowls, etc. There is a big screen TV in all of the rooms where your dog will be resting for some background noise so that they aren't freaked out by every new sound. If you use the normal space with the picket fences, your babies can still see their friends "across the way" so they know they're not alone. During the approximately 1 hr to 1.5 hrs that your dog will be in the white picket fence area resting, there is one staff member coming around a few times to let each dog out to run down the hall and say "hi" to all of it's friends and get a little energy out, if it wants. You can also actually board your animal here over night...they have many levels of quite nice spaces (a couple suites are nicer than my bedroom LOL). This review is not about that, as we only use them for daycare. My dog and others that I've witnessed get so excited when pulling into the parking lot. Drop offs have become "mom, get outta my way, love you bye, I have friends to see". They post pics of the dogs throughout the day on social media so you can see your baby having fun. My husband and I have quickly fallen in love with this place, the lovely "hoos" that run it and even the fellow parents. It just seems like everyone loves being a part of this place. I have zero guilt about leaving my kid here, as I know she is having tons of fun and comes home a tired baby.
