PetCare AuPair - "we're there...when you can't be!"

PetCare AuPair

My hubby and I travel a lot, and we don't have anyone who we can trust to care for our four kitties…read more(at least not anyone who lives close by). Thankfully, there's PetCare AuPair! We have been using their cat sitting services for about two years now, and we are so happy that we found them. PCAP is composed of a staff of friendly, real people who really love animals. Each and every visit is carefully documented and they always leave cute comments about how the cats are doing and what they're up to. Upon request, the staff is even accommodating about sending pictures to keep us updated. We love receiving the pictures while we're away! We feel we've really built a trusting bond with this company, and we will continue to use their services for years to come. When you're away from home, you don't want feel stressed about whether your furry family members are okay... with PCAP, we always feel very assured that the kitties are in good hands, so we can relax and have a good time on vacation. I can't recommend them enough!

This company was a God-send!…read more Over the holidays, I was in need of some one to watch my Lab mix doggie for 10 days. I absolutely did NOT want to put her in a kennel. I wanted to her to be in her own environment (I'm one of those people that view their dogs as part of the family and my husband and I like to refer to her as our "fur-baby", so yes, we are over protective dog-parents). All my friends who normally would have watched her- couldn't, due to the fact it was over Christmas and New Years- Panicking, I did a quick search on Yelp and found this place. I saw they have good reviews, so I emailed the owner, Meghan Gilliatt, and she emailed me back right away (um, amazing service!) She was able to answer all my questions and concerns. We set up a free consultation with the manager, Laurie. She came over to our house and right away we knew that the people who work here, love pets! Our dog immediately loved Laurie (after all dogs know right away if some one is a doggie-lover) We set up our doggies visits while we were away. While we were gone, the employees sent me text updates with pictures every day! They also fill out a daily visit "report card" so you know everything that went on for each visit. I loved that even though we were far away, our dog was happy in her own home and getting so much love! This is a fabulous company and they have so many options and services that really cater to your needs. I will be using them again! :D

One and done, never again. Pet came home and started showing symptoms of kennel cough (ended up…read morehaving it for 2 weeks). Called this location to report it and they downplayed it and weren't bothered by it. I'm sure plenty of other dogs got it too as there were over 20 in the same playroom that day. We took our dog here for a meet and greet couple hour play time. Two days later we dropped her off for a full day. Sadly she got kennel cough. Only place should could have gotten it from as she had no other contact with dogs for weeks before. This location looked promising with the large indoor and outdoor play areas (multiple inside). But seeing how the staff reacts to things that occur is pretty bad. If a dog is deemed to be "acting up", they put it in a crate where it can look out at all the other dogs playing around it. Really bad for the dog's mental state. We also saw that when dogs have bathroom accidents indoors, it ends up right on the foam flooring and stays there for a little while until it's cleaned up. No wonder the place smelled like urine going in. Dogtopia seemed highly rated going in and the staff we talked to were very information and friendly, but our one and only experience with our dog in the daycare facilitity was all wrong. Luckily our poor pet recovered relatively quick for a younger dog having kennel cough but she was miserable for the first few days.

Buyer beware. Please, please read reviews of this place with an open mind. This Birmingham…read morelocation and the Bloomfield Hills location are the absolute worst when it comes to what should be their core business ... dogs! Bottom line, poorly trained (or just don't care) staff. High energy, fun loving dogs do not apply. When Bloomfield Hills complains about my high energy dog and demands that I come and pick her up mid-day, I mention I'll try the Birmingham location. Their response ... that location agrees with us. What ??? I guess they forget, Dogtopia, you're not the only game in town. Consumers who love their dogs do have options and Dogtopia is not one of them. If you love your dog like we do, they're family, do not take them to either of these locations.

We were so anxious about leaving our kitties for a few days. What a relief to find Bloomfield Pet…read moreCare! Our 2 very shy cats were well taken care of while we were gone. The caregivers fed & watered them and scooped the kitty litter with every visit. They took pictures of our babies with each visit, and reported how things went while we were gone. More than that, our house was well secured! The caregivers turned on/off lights as needed, turned our blinds open and closed, picked up our mail, and brought in delivered packages. Most importantly, our cats and house were in tact when we came home. We were so happy to return and find that the cats were fine and the house was as we left it. We will definitely use Bloomfield Pet Care in the future to care for our cats and secure our home. This service is top-notch and very reasonably priced. We highly recommend this business for anyone who has to leave their pets home alone. Bloomfield Pet Care is the best! 5 stars, Definitely!

Like most people, we normally ask a friend or family member to watch our cat when we're out of…read moretown. But given we were going overseas during Independence Day when many others were out of town, we reached out to Bloomfield Pet Care. Cats are pretty easy to care for in the grand scheme of pets, but we really loved the job Crystal did. Our cat is normally afraid of new people, but Crystal got her to come out and socialize every day she checked in! Great stuff. We really appreciated the notes and pictures from each visit. Definitely recommend!

Over the years we've tried a number of the local big name boarding facilities before finding AAPR-…read moreRoyal Oak. After the first experience with each of the other boarding facilities, our dog could not get out of the facility fast enough - and most of the time, he would refuse to go back inside the facility and would not let us leave us for the second boarding. We don't have that problem here. I fully trust my dog's intuition, and I fully trust the staff at AAPR-Royal Oak. We board several times a year - sometimes for a weekend, and every now and then for a full week. It doesn't matter how much time has passed in between visits, each time we show up for boarding we are greeted by the same handful of smiling faces, and they are always so excited to see our pup. And more importantly - he's excited to see them too. We only board overnight (with the daytime play of course), so I can't speak to any of the other available services. And our dog does not require any additional special treatment or services, so I can't speak to that either. I do wish that they were a little more consistent with the after boarding report cards that they send out electronically. It's always nice to get a little more detailed feedback about how boarding went. There are a few specific people who will take that extra few minutes to give us a quick recap if they're the ones bringing him out to us at the end of the stay, and for that I am so so grateful. I wouldn't hesitate to bring my dog here, nor would I hesitate to recommend AAPR- Royal Oak to friends and family.

Our experience with dog sitting couldn't be worse. Our dog was there for about a week while we were…read moreout of state on vacation. We brought a large container of our dogs specialty food for the week. The supervisor was very quick to show annoyance at the size of the container, but the food was for a 75 lb dog for a week - that's a lot of food. I was hesitant to leave our dog with a group that could be annoyed at something so small, bur we had condo reservations, tickets, etc. I hoped it was a blip...not so much. We did get a phone call once during vacation to tell us that our dog was good. When we picked our dog up, I could tell something was wrong. He has a nervous temperament so I was hoping that was the issue. Not so much. They took forever bring us his food because they couldn't reach it. How did you reach it 3 times a day to feed him? When they brought the container, it was still full. He was fed none if his food. I don't know of my dog was fed at all.considering when I ran him up to the vet to check his weight, he was down 10 lbs. In a week. I really considered legal action, but honestly they aren't worth my time or money. I just don't want this to happen to anyone else. We heard
