I cannot recommend Empire Pet Care and Jessica more highly. My husband and I used this service for…read morethe first time in January while we were away on vacation. Jessica came to our house before the trip and we were able to show her everything she needed to know to care for our cats. We received a detailed description of the visit every day as well as photos of our cats. Several of them are literally some of the best photos we have of them! Although we already liked Jessica, what really made her stand out is when there was a large snow storm. Our tenant was supposed to shovel for us, but his car broke down and he couldn't even make it home that night. We told Jessica about the situation and that our cats would be ok for a day. She said she would be fine, came by anyhow, climbed her way through over a foot of snow, and then brushed it off saying it was not a problem and we shouldn't worry about it. Now, that is dedication! I'm so glad we have found Jessica/Empire Pet Care and will no longer worry about traveling and leaving our babies behind.

The rates for overnight boarding have gone up dramatically in the past year or so. Buyer beware…read more Also, there's a $10 per day surcharge for boarding dogs on holidays. When I boarded my two little dogs over the weekend I did not expect to be hit with $40 surcharges plus additional sales taxes. That was a surprise. The owner came out and explained that while it wasn't a holiday, it was winter break for schools so I was charged holiday rates for both nights for each dog. She was also defensive. She said her rates "are competitive" with other dog boarding facilities. A check of online websites showed me that her statement is not accurate. Camp Bow Wow's rates are higher. Some kennels charge more to board larger dogs, but at Camp Bow Wow we all pay the same rate even though my dogs are tiny. I've been a loyal customer for years. The staff has done well for my dogs. While I agree that good work should be compensated, but I disagree with the lack of notification. No one likes surprises. If you're planning to charge me holiday rates on non-holidays, you should tell me in advance or put in it writing on your website. That's only fair.

Molly (groomer) groomed my Westie just the way I like it on the first try! I have tried a few other groomers in the area that have fallen short on adhering to my grooming requests.

She is organized and has kept an eye on our GSP while we had been out of town. This is so much better then boarding. Our guy is on his home turf where he is on camera and feels good and calm, and we are guaranteed he gets good walks in and goes out when needed. I never really trusted this about some boarding places. Jess knows about vaccines and behavior and we trust her. Don't know what else to add, if you are looking for a reliable person who does this professionally you would be hard pressed to find a more reliable and loving individual.
