Cindy has watched our dog, Rampage about 3-4 times now when we go away on vacation…read more Let me ask you something. Why would you put your dog at a kennel type place if you have or had this option. My dog is practically like family to Cindy now. It's honestly invaluable what she provides. My dog is never in a crate, and gets to hang with Cindy and her family, go out back and check out the chickens and other animals, he's not locked up in a cage for 20 of 24 hours a day. I get the overnight kennel places probably not having the man power to pay one on one attention to those dogs, but it's just that your dog is going from free reign of your own home to being in a kennel for hours at a time. It's a huge adjustment and difference. With Cindy, they're going from your home, to a home. She gives you updates too on how your dog is doing and sometimes even sends off photos too. I recommend Cindy to any & everyone who's in need for a dog sitter.

My little cat Murray was in the hospital, very sick, and needed to be transferred from her vet in Lodi to a specialist vet in Sacramento. I was tied up with a work crisis but Murray needed to get to Sacramento. After a frantic search on Yelp, I found Cindy and she dropped everything, on a Saturday afternoon, and drove from Manteca to pick up Murray in Lodi and take her to Sacramento. Cindy even stayed in Sacramento for several hours until I could get there. Cindy made it possible for my beloved Murray to get the best medical care and I am forever grateful. She sent me a video of Murray, which I cherish. Thank you, Cindy, your kindness, generosity of spirit and integrity are treasures; thank you for caring about my Murray as if she were your own.

Even when Jennifer is unavailable, my little poofs get walked by another person from the staff and I'm always shocked at how much I like the rest of the team too (because I am very attached to Jen!!!). They have all been so clearly skilled and passionate about pups and my critters always look like they're having a good time with them in the photos. I couldn't recommend this company enough. Besides the amazing people who walk the dogs, this company also has features that make me feel secure -- like the gps map of where the dog walkers went with my pups and a timestamp of when they started and ended. They're also bonded and insured. And they're easy to reach if I have questions about services and invoices and whatnot. Here, I'll add a picture of what the dog walk reports look like --

And while we're away we receive a daily (extensive) email report on the state of our four legged members of the family. We couldn't recommend her services more highly.

I can't say enough great things about Cara and this company!

Although Cara runs the dogs being an elite athlete, I think she let Lola the chow chow go at her own pace, and I've actually never seen Lola so happy!!

She made my dream come true with Lola and has helped tremendously in relieving my anxieties about leaving town and contributing towards Lola's rehabilitation into a social, happy member of society!

Cara has been wonderfully flexible when we have had changes in our schedule or when we needed a pet sitter.

She even gave them both a bath before sending them home. We feel so lucky to have Cara in our dogs lives. She loves on them as if they were her own and goes way above and beyond.

Ally was wonderful with both kitties. She sent us emails each day with a detailed update and incredible photos. After the first update, I knew our kitties would have a great week - with good attention and play each day with Ally. Ally also took care of the house - bringing in mail and lots of packages and watering the plants. Everything was in excellent order. I'm so happy to have found such an excellent pet sitting service for my kitties. Now, I know I can go out of town with the peace of mind that our kitties will receive fantastic care.
