    My sanctuary dogs, just hangin'

    My dogs have never been so happy! I've been in rescue for twelve years and have known the Doggie Dude Ranch owners and staff for more than five years. When the shelter I worked at was closing, several of our dogs came to live at DDR. These were senior dogs who were pretty much unadoptable because they had temperament issues, were nervous, or dog- and/or human-aggressive. Phil and his staff were gentle and understanding, and slowly and steadily helped these dogs become the best and happiest they could be. As a result, I saw them blossom, and some even learned how to get along happily with other dogs, all under steady supervision. They also got fit running around all day in the fresh air, which was wonderful to see. Not only were DDR staff immediately on it any time I felt a dog needed vet care, they were proactive about letting me know if they felt a dog needed to get looked at, which I sincerely appreciated. As someone who has been in rescue, I've seen both the good and the not-so-good in animal care. DDR is amazing. When a coworker needed a place to board his dog over the holidays, I was happy to recommend DDR -- and both he and his dog were happy. I trust Phil and his team so implicitly that since I've become an independent rescuer I've also asked them to board two dogs, and I was so relieved they could. Both my Chihuahua mix and my senior German Shepherd rescues are happy as can be. They live with size-appropriate companions, run around all day, and I know I can trust the DDR team 100% to have their best interests at heart.

    Suzie provided private boarding for my dog Jerry and treated him like her own. It was clear from…read morethe start that this was more than just a service, he was genuinely cared for, safe, loved, and comfortable in a true home setting. She went above and beyond with updates, photos, and messages that gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of the country for almost two weeks. Vanessa came to my house to check in on my extremely shy and very skittish cat, who refuses to leave the house under any circumstances. Anyone who has met my cat knows she does not trust easily, but Vanessa was patient, calm, and respectful of her space. She still managed to connect enough to make sure she was fed, cared for, and feeling secure. The regular updates were beyond appreciated, I loved knowing she was in such thoughtful hands. Both of them consistently sent me updates, which I truly valued, especially being out of the country for nearly two weeks. Traveling is stressful enough, and having sitters I completely trusted made all the difference. If you need boarding or in-home sitting for pets with big personalities, or tiny terrified ones, you're in the best hands with Suzie and Vanessa. Thank you both for the love, attention, and reassurance. I will absolutely be booking again!

    I am SO grateful to have Suzie and her awesome team care for our dogs while we are away. Their…read moreprofessionalism and communication gives me comfort knowing that the best care for our pets is number one. When you have your first meet and greet, you have the privilege of meeting the owner and the petsitter at your residence. We take quite a few trips, and now Pet Care of SC have it down pat on what to do during hot/cold days, normal days, giving them pet meds, walks, and they even take care of your mail, trash days, take in your packages, etc! Your home and pets are taken care of while you are gone, now that's great service! I met the sitters that come to our home. They are kind, responsible and they enjoy our pets. You can book service for your pets through an app, or online. If you have any questions about it, Suzie is always happy to accommodate and help you with that too. The Pet Care Club of Santa Clarita has great rates! At the end of the trip, I like to give the sitters a tip for their time and gas. It's just a suggestion, not a requirement. I highly recommend this company! Suzie is warm, and her team is fantastic! Thumbs way up! Great job, PCCOSC!!!

    Beware, they're responsible for the death of my dog. While watching my dog at their house, they…read morenegligently leave doors open leading to my dog escaping. We never found her and they even still use my dead dogs picture on Yelp, avoid at all costs.

    I contracted with Got Paws for my 18-day trip to Ireland for a twice-a-day visit for my 3 cats…read more Expensive! I thought they would be in good hands. I had Susan come to my home and gave her a list of what I needed her to do as per her contract. I also told her in person that I had two windows slightly open to create a cross-draft and to keep the fans on at all times. I came home to a stuffy, dark hot house that reeked of strong pee and poop. Susan had shut the windows, turned off the fans, and left only the den light on. Litter, cat hair, and other debris were spread all over my living room and kitchen floor; gnats, litter, and cat hair were in their water bowl. She came into my house with dirty shoes and got some kind of dried mud on my foyer mat. Mind you, Susan says she cleaned everything just hours before I arrived home. I also noticed that the two big containers of fresh litter I had left out by their boxes were never used in 18 days. My cats were so traumatized by the conditions they were living in at the height of summer (110 degrees outside) that they were frantic when I walked in. They needed reassurance, affection, and fresh air. I immediately opened the windows, turned on the fans, and fed them. I spent two days airing the stench out of my house and cleaning the mess left behind by Susan. This was animal abuse. I contacted Got Paws via email four times before I got a response from Victoria. She just blew me off and said Susan never had any complaints. She basically said she "knew" Susan cleaned the cat boxes every day, changed the water every day, swept the floors every day, and took great care of my "kitties." It was all gas-lighting, not a hint of dealing with Susan, not a crumb of apology for what my cats endured. THIS COMPANY HAS NO HEART AND IS RUN BY INCOMPETENT LIARS. DO NOT RISK YOUR PETS WITH THESE PEOPLE.
