They are great about being flexible with last minute requests. They send text and picture reports daily which is very comforting. I completely trust them with the care of our animals, and I'm so glad they were recommended to us. I'm only sad that we'll be moving in a year or so and I'll have to find new providers . . I wish I could take them with me!

For 10 years, Cindy took care of our English Mastiff, Dixie as though she we're her own. Never missing a visit not even with inclement weather-Cindy puts the care of all of her feathered and fur clients first! We've even referred other family members and friends that have also become clients and we all agree there's nothing like knowing your fur kids taken care of. I can not say enough good things about the care we received throughout the years, we are so grateful!

WONDERFUL dog walking and pet sitting team! We have been so fortunate to have found Cindy and her…read morereliable, caring team of dog walkers. They are 100% dependable and treat our home and pets like their own. We have had three medium to large dogs and one cat for much of the last 2.5 years that we have used them. We rescued our young pit mix just before we moved to this area. She had NO training and was very reactive, with a strong prey drive when we got her, but Cindy and her team were able to manage her during her training. We also adopted our Doberman puppy just after moving here as well, and they were able to accommodate twice daily walks for us initially during her housebreaking, and have been able to handle this rambunctious girl as well. Our senior cat, who has since passed, was a timid girl; but based on the photos Cindy posted, her midday friends quickly gained her trust and affection. We have used them the entire time we have lived in VB, mainly for 3-4 midday dogs walks per week. They have offered the peace of mind and dependability we need, whether we are at work or out of town. We often have last minute schedule changes or unusual requests and they have always been able to accommodate us. In addition, their prices are very affordable, and their communications are always prompt. In regards the negative comments from the previous client- Cindy may be soft spoken and straight forward, but she has never been rude; she is a kind hearted, gentle person who always has her clients and pets needs in mind. Also, as far as their communications and alerts about anything seemingly off about pets- as a pet owner I **greatly** appreciate when our walkers alert us to any potential medical concerns, along with any behavioral issues that pop up. I can tell by the notes they leave in the pet journal that they know each of our pet's normal behaviors and their individual funny quirks. Also, we have never had any concerns about the walkers sticking to the prearranged time window.

Not to mention, I added on a grooming service and my dog isn't clean..nails aren't trimmed I am beyond upset and disappointed in this company. The only thing they were good for was availability but I see why because they treat your dogs like I'll never take my baby back here again.

Because of my telework schedule, I've been home when she comes to get my girl for her walk. My pup starts looking at the door and whining about 30 minutes before her arrival and goes crazy when she sees her buddy. I am so grateful I have someone trustworthy and fur baby approved for my girl. Amy is amazing! I adopted a 18 lb rescue Terrier Mix and was not prepared for keeping her home during the work days for two weeks while her vaccines kicked in. Amy jumped in to help. She is flexible to assist with last minute schedule changes. Being military, I appreciated Amy's military family background because she understands my unique challenges and also can get on base with no problem. She even brought a harness when my little escape artist needed it. I trust her completely and am bummed she won't be going with us when we move in January. My puppy loves her, too, and can't wait for Miss Amy to visit!
