He was not at all stressed out when we returned. (Unlike our kennel experience) Many of our neighbors commented on how much they saw our dog getting walked! They also were good problem solvers when our contractors locked them out of our house. Yikes, that could have been a real issue but they were so flexible and helpful getting our problem solved. They even helped make sure the contractors did not do a repeat performance and lock the wrong doors again. They are so good with animals and their owners. Will only use them in the future!

The Dog Waggin gave my dog a full evaluation and even offered to help me out for two weeks as I was not able to take the dog home right away. I promptly paid and they watch her for two weeks while I managed my affairs at home. I was able to drive out and picked her up and take her home. The staff dealt with my million questions and many phone call to see how she was doing. :) very knowledgeable and I still call with questions whenever I am doubting my parenting skills. Thanks Dog Waggin Staff!

I have been meaning to write this review for a while now. We took our dog here about 4 times before…read moresummer. I would not take your dog here. No toys to play with and small rooms. The young kid who owns this or whatever also lied to me. I asked about a room and what was going on inside because I could see it and he said nothing and it was being cleaned - that was not true and I could see dogs in there and they all looked so sad. He said we could not go in to see dogs because it would rile them up, also bullshit- you just don't want people seeing your shitty/ depressing rooms. Do not take your dog somewhere if you cannot tour the place - duh no brainer, hence why I feel silly I even came back. The last time we picked our dog up he wreaked of pee and had yellow paws and had to potty right away. I should have known better and actually feel bad I let my dog come here. He was never excited to come. They also do not let you come see inside which is super sketchy and the one time I was able to get a look it legit looked like a jail cell and the dogs looked sad. It's also not cool the workers just stay outside and watch. That is not normal and they should he interacting with the dogs , not staring from a window outside. My dog hated coming here and was never excited. We ended up moving to pampered pets and it's been nothing but amazing ! The workers are great, so friendly and constantly interacting with the dogs. They have TVs where you can also see them and a beautiful outdoor space. They even have a pool for swim lessons . Please safe yourself the trouble and your dog the trauma of coming here. My dog visibly gets excited and cannot wait to come to pampered Pets so also a sign I know he is being loved and treated well.

When I moved to Woodstock, I talked to at least 4 pet sitters. Michelle was the one I chose…read morebecause: 1) The dogs liked her, 2) She was professional and communicated well and, 3) Her references spoke very highly of her and her ability to work with many types of animals. After 4 years of having Michelle as my pet sitter, I highly recommend her. She is reliable and keeps in touch with texts and photos when she's caring for the dogs and bird. When one of the dogs had a health concern, she stayed very aware of his condition and monitored how much he was eating, drinking, etc. I have no doubt that she cares for my pets as if they were her own!

The problem was we still had to leave for work every day and struggled with the thought that our dog might need emergency attention while we were gone.

During such a traumatic, heart-wrenching time, it was truly a blessing to have her gentle help and assurance. I can't say enough good things about her and this unbelievable level of care.
