PlayTime Pet Sitters & Dog Walkers

Playtime exceeded our expectations. They were trustworthy, qualified and very experienced in pet…read morecare giving. Leaving our dog and two cats behind while traveling was very stressful, but when I started receiving very detailed communications, updates and pictures after each visit it was very reassuring. They followed our dog's strict medication schedule and the feeding and care instructions for all our pets. When one of our cats got sick, they handled taking him to the ER and kept us informed during the whole visit. They picked him up after being hospitalized and administered his medications. We felt having our pets in their own home environment was the best for them. They also water our plants, picked up mail/packages and took the trash out on pickup days. We highly recommend them and will be scheduling their services when traveling again.

We have used Playtime Petsitters on four occasions since moving to the Springs. I have over 25…read moreyears of experience hiring petsitters and was fortunate to have the same sitter for 12 of those years, so I'm very familiar with what consistent, reliable care looks like. The good: I was impressed with owner Susan's responsiveness during my initial call. She was friendly, helpful, and walked me through the process. Our meet‑and‑greet was scheduled a couple of weeks out, and the sitter we met was friendly and someone I felt comfortable with. Where things fell short: During our first three‑night trip, I was surprised to see a different person in our home for almost every visit -- four sitters total, only one of whom we had met. This was never communicated to us, and the rotating sitters did not seem familiar with our home or our dogs. Additionally, the time between the evening and morning visits was consistently 12-13 hours, which is longer than we were comfortable with (and documented in their portal notes). Our second and third bookings were short and uneventful, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, our most recent experience was not positive. Our dogs were not walked for the first two days because the assigned sitter reported they were "too sick" to walk them. I'm unsure why someone unable to perform basic duties was sent to our home. When I contacted Susan, she did not recognize my name, address, or dogs, despite having personally cared for them on a previous visit. She did step in to take over the remaining visits, which I appreciated. However, on Sunday -- the day before our return -- she called to say there had been an accident in the house and that it was "messy." She preferred to leave it to "solidify" because it would be easier to clean later. I strongly disagreed and directed her to the cleaning supplies. She was argumentative but said she would return to clean it. We arrived home the next day around 2 p.m. to find feces throughout the house, clearly from the prior morning. It was crusted, smelled like a kennel, and had been tracked everywhere by the dogs. This was despite three additional visits after the accident occurred. Since returning home, I have attempted multiple times to reconnect with Susan to discuss what happened. Communication has been minimal, and the responses I have received have been excuses rather than accountability. Bottom line: This is marketed as a premium service, but our experience did not reflect that. Between the lack of communication, rotating sitters, long gaps between visits, and the unacceptable handling of the most recent incident, the service has not been worth the cost, the stress, or the cleanup afterward. I hope this feedback helps others make an informed decision.
