He stayed for about an hour answering all of our questions and going through our routine with us. He and his company are very thorough and good at what they do. I felt I could trust him and his staff to come into our house without us being home. When they are done with the visit you get an email with all of the notes from the visit and sometimes you get pictures as well of the dogs playing. This allowed us to go out late on a weekend night. We plan on using them in the future.

I received a call the day after Christmas, that my dog was howling in pain and couldn't get up. I…read moreasked if they could get him to a vet and they said no, I had to pick him up. When arrived they wanted to use ropes to lift him with due to so badly soiled. So we supplied our own blanket and carried him to car. He was in obvious pain, soiled, bleeding from mouth. He was immediately taken to animal hospital and advised had to be put down for fractured back and kidney issues. When asked for an explanation Randa immediately sent a refund saying upon my request, which was just for explanation. When followed up was told I can't sue because I signed a waiver, that it was my fault for boarding an older dog and not boarded before. I never made any accusations or asked for anything but an explanation. I'm so devastated I left my pet/family member in their care.

I have never used a pet service...now I will never use anyone else!…read more I have never had a need for anyone to watch and feed my cat (or previous cats) as I always had a friend or neighbor willing. However, this time I needed someone for my vacation and I was more than pleased. Valerie explained things wonderfully and made me feel at ease. Sherrie watched my cat...sent pics, videos, and left me updates for each day. She even let me know when something was "amiss" at my house (i.e. car in my driveway). She kept in touch and made me feel very comfortable. I was very happy with her and am so happy to know that she will be my primary. The price was way more reasonable than I thought it would be. I couldn't be happier with this first experience. (says I am in Hoffman....am in Palatine)

It has taken me awhile to write this because we recently lost our dog to cancer…read more Wags 2 Whiskers, thank you so much!!!!! You went above and beyond anything we ever could have expected in caring for our dog Cocoa and we could not have been happier with your services. I'm not sure how we got so lucky to find you, but we can really never thank you enough for helping take such great care of her right up until the end. Our dog was a lot to handle and we both knew that - but she completely adored you and we know that her daily walks were something she completely looked forward to and we never worried when we went away because we always knew that she was well cared for by you. All the pictures, the videos, the texts, and all the special meds and foods at the end that you helped us with - it was so much - you guys absolutely were the best! There are no words to say how grateful we are for everything and if I could give you 10 stars on here, I would!!!!!!!!!!!! You are true animal lovers with kind hearts and I feel blessed that you came into our lives at the time you did and helped us take care of our girl to the end. We will be back, I promise!!! Give us a little time... our hearts are still mending...but fostering is in our future so we can save another one!! Thank you again for everything. I cannot recommend Wags 2 Whiskers enough!

I have been using Hilary and her crew for 3 years now and have always considered myself so lucky to…read morehave found her! My husband and I go on trips often, but I have two dogs, and one of them that we used to have when we first started using AWFAS always got anxious if he was away from home... so a kennel or even being watched at someone else's house was never an option for us. So to have a dog sitter to watch our dogs overnight in the comfort of OUR own home was exactly what we needed. But not only are we entrusting them to watch our boys, we are also entrusting them to look after our house- and AWFAS has never failed in making us feel like our home and family are in good hands when we are away. Even more importantly, Hilary, Jackie & Carmen have always looked after our dogs like they were their own. When one of my dogs was very sick (and eventually passed away), he was in such great hands when we had to leave for a few days for a trip out of the country. and no matter what, they always keep me up-to-date with many texts, pictures and video so I can have peace of mind when we're not home. Even more recently, we were on vacation for 2 whole weeks - Hilary did whatever she could to ensure that my boy was well taken care of and that he didn't get lonely! I'm pretty sure he had more fun with her those 2 weeks, than he has ever had with us (you'd understand if you met him!) =\

We LOVE Mary! And our dogs and cat do too!…read more We have two small dogs and a cat. All of which definitely have their own sets of issues! One has anxiety issues who eats everything (paper towels anyone?) and likes to poop/barf around the house from time to time. One has a bum leg who has 4 pills in the morning and 3 in the evening. And then a cat who can be severely aggressive when he wants something! I've had house sitters in the past and now that I've found Tails 2 Trails I hope to never lose them! Mary is an excellent communicator and I'm always able to get a hold of her. The dogs are happy to see her and get into their own routine when she arrives. She's watched them for over a week's length of time and as short as just a quick stop over if we are out too long for the day. I seriously trust her more than my own grandmother. (Whom I love but doesn't listen and follow directions!)

Very unprofessional service . Not polite or concerning. I don't understand why they have good reviews when they treat their future clients this way .

I have been meaning to write this review for a while now. We took our dog here about 4 times before…read moresummer. I would not take your dog here. No toys to play with and small rooms. The young kid who owns this or whatever also lied to me. I asked about a room and what was going on inside because I could see it and he said nothing and it was being cleaned - that was not true and I could see dogs in there and they all looked so sad. He said we could not go in to see dogs because it would rile them up, also bullshit- you just don't want people seeing your shitty/ depressing rooms. Do not take your dog somewhere if you cannot tour the place - duh no brainer, hence why I feel silly I even came back. The last time we picked our dog up he wreaked of pee and had yellow paws and had to potty right away. I should have known better and actually feel bad I let my dog come here. He was never excited to come. They also do not let you come see inside which is super sketchy and the one time I was able to get a look it legit looked like a jail cell and the dogs looked sad. It's also not cool the workers just stay outside and watch. That is not normal and they should he interacting with the dogs , not staring from a window outside. My dog hated coming here and was never excited. We ended up moving to pampered pets and it's been nothing but amazing ! The workers are great, so friendly and constantly interacting with the dogs. They have TVs where you can also see them and a beautiful outdoor space. They even have a pool for swim lessons . Please safe yourself the trouble and your dog the trauma of coming here. My dog visibly gets excited and cannot wait to come to pampered Pets so also a sign I know he is being loved and treated well.
