Charlie Blu, the Aussie, here telling you about my recent experience at Tails are Wagging…read more Even though Dad takes me everywhere, sometimes he needs to board me when he leaves town for my own sake, so this doggie camp was my first choice. It has a nice time range of drop off and pick up times which helps with Dad's schedule and ensures that I get to come home without delay. I like that we get an opportunity to play outside 90 minutes at a time, 3 times a day. The outdoor area is 1/2 covered and 1/2 in the sun, which gives me options in various weather conditions. Since I'm just a year old and under 40 lbs, the helpers also put me in the small doogie group with others my size, so we can play together. There is a separate area to go potty and plenty of time set aside to rest. The owner is friendly and answered questions quickly. After an interview, updated shots, and a 3 hour daycare trial , it was determined that I could come back here for an overnight stay. The 4'x6' kennels are big enough to get a good night sleep. It's a good thing Dad remembered the dog mat because the floors are concrete and would have been too cold for me. Glad we found this place because next to sticking to Dad and Mum like velcro, this boarding facility is a good fit when they can't be with me.

Typically, there would be an introduction and key exchange, but seeing as I had to leave very soon, she accommodated me, and we made arrangements for the key exchange. She took a lot of information about my pets, including veterinary information, likes and dislikes, and special instructions, making me feel very safe leaving my 3 bunnies in her care. My rabbits can be a handful, but All Our Friends Pet Care handled them with no problem! I got regular textual updates including photos, which made me feel reassured the whole time. This pet service is the real deal, and Laura was great with the rabbits, extremely friendly to talk to, and very professional. Will definitely be using this service again!

I hired Lauren for a second time to pet sit for 5 days, 2 scheduled visits a day, mornings 9am-11am and evenings 6pm-9pm. Even with the instructions that were on the website she uses for communication and the notes that I left around the house, Lauren didn't follow any of these things. Her services were well below poor. She came at whatever time was convenient for her meaning my pets had to wait to be fed and let outside to relieve themselves well into the late afternoon and early morning hours between 12am-130am. I left instructions on cleaning my dogs paws off before letting her come back into the house so mud was tracked on the carpet. Lauren ignored this and even made a mess herself. There was evidence that she used our bathroom and muddy shoe prints on our rug. I'm guessing because she did not adhere to the routine and schedule I had in place and paid for, my pets were very stressed and had diarrhea, not only just in the litter box but on pillows as well. If Lauren had been coming to the house regularly, she would have seen this. Had she been doing her job that she charged me for, she would have noticed the mess and my pets being stressed out and could have contacted me. My pets veterinary information is on her website and I have probiotics at home. This could have easily been cleared up but she didn't do her job properly. Halfway through the 5 days, communication was scarce. I had to contact her to figure out what was going on. She finally gave me some wacky excuses about her phone being in a repair place due to it being broken. Even if that were true (which I don't think it is) she claims that you have to put all communications in her website just in case she can't make it to a scheduled visit, that way someone else has the information. If she had people working for her, she should have someone that can relay information to her clients. Despite there being cameras all over my house with time stamps, Lauren still choose to lie to me. I caught her in several lies like the one I just described. One day my neighbor contacted me to let me know that some packages were on my porch all day (delivered early in the morning) so they brought them into their home so nobody would steal them. I asked Lauren if she had noticed any packages on my porch that morning and she said she hadn't noticed anything but would check when she came during the evening visit. Had she actually come in the morning like she was supposed to, she would have seen it. The last day she was scheduled to come by the house, she kept texting me to ask me what time I would be home. She texted me several times asking me this and I know it was because she was trying to see if she could get away with coming to my house super late again. This was the first time that entire week that she constantly communicated with me in a timely manner. When we finally did get home we noticed litter boxes were not cleaned properly, dirt/mud on the floors, carpets, and rugs. Our dog was not fed properly. Our cats were sick and stressed. My house was a mess and I never leave it like that. Nobody should have to come home from vacation and have to vacuum and do laundry. I did try to communicate with Lauren about a refund but she did not contact me back. I knew I wasn't going to hear from her so I contacted my bank and had them reverse my charges and do an investigation. About three days later, Lauren contacted me through text and said she was on vacation and didn't have any cell service (which I think is another lie, I'm sure she took a couple of days to construct an excuse). By that time, the investigation had already begun and I knew that i would never deal with her again. Moral of the story is do not hire Lauren and her company to watch your pets. They may be neglected like mine were, the risk isn't worth it!

At times, we have had to leave for weeks at a time and she always comes during her scheduled meetings to make sure my dogs are well taken care of. There was a time during Covid days where she was very short-staffed and we did have a couple of problems with visits, but they were quickly resolved once we had conversations. There has been a couple of times where one of our dogs managed to get out of his kennel and since I caught it through the cameras and texted her, she has headed to my place to solve the situation. Overall, I find Lauren very responsive and willing to follow instructions. We will continue hiring her.

After this happened, my puppy, in fear went to the corner and didn't move from that point on (30 or so minutes). I called the front desk immediately and asked for Misty, who was occupied - then I requested my baby be removed and put into a kennel until I got there. The staff member who answered said they would notify whoever was monitoring and NEVER removed my dog. 15 or so minutes later I called again and spoke with Misty who did remove my dog and put her in a kennel until I arrived. To add, there was only 1 kind staff member besides Misty, who helped me during drop off. One of the ladies glared at me in the am and the other one had a very poor attitude during checkout. She came back filthy, smelly, and whiny. Never again.
