When I first spoke with Lynn, she suggested that her son, Jared, meet Briar before we left. At their very first meeting, Jared was able to take Briar for a successful walk. We met with him several more times before our daughter's wedding, and with his calm, patient approach, Briar became more comfortable each visit. By the time we left for the wedding, Jared was walking all three dogs together--and Briar didn't even need her muzzle. I can't thank TLC, Lynn, and especially Jared enough. Jared was absolutely wonderful with all of our dogs, and his kindness, confidence, and understanding of Briar made all the difference. He completely eased our worries about leaving them while we were away, and we're so grateful that he'll continue helping us work with Briar. If you're looking for someone who truly understands dogs and goes above and beyond, I highly recommend TLC Pet Sitting. Thank you, Lynn and Jared, for your exceptional care and for giving us such peace of mind!

We were looking for someone to sit for our dog over the TG holiday week. I called several…read more"professional" sitters, most of which were too business-like. Either they were managing multiple sitters or they said they see if they could fit me into their busy holiday schedule and then never called me back. We wanted someone that was not only in this business to make a buck but sincerely enjoyed helping dog owners. We also found Shannon on yelp but unlike my experience with other "companies," when I called and left Shannon a message, she personally called me back within 15 minutes. She agreed to come by our home to meet with us so we could decide if we felt comfortable with her. My wife and I met with her and liked her interactions with our dog and we felt we were getting a caring person to watch out for our dog and not just someone working for a business owner. Shannon visited our dog twice a day during our trip and texted us each time to let us know how our dog was doing. She also occasionally sent us pictures. Shannon's rates are reasonable and she is very accommodating. We will definitely use her services the next time we need a sitter.

I found her to be lovely, responsible, reliable, honest, and trustworthy. I've been using their pet sitting services for 2 1/2 years, now. Shannon takes great care for my almost 18 year old, Ragdoll Cat. My cat adores her! Although, she's a special needs kitty, Shannon assured me that they would take great care of her while I'm away. I have found their prices to be a little high, but this service is worth the peace of mind. They pick up mail, scoop cat litter, feed, water, brush, and administer medications. What they do not do is administer IVs, which my Kitty needs 3 times a week. I'm very happy with their services, and I gladly recommend them. I've dealt with Linda very little. Shannon is a gem! She responds quickly, while I'm away to check in, and sends me photos of my fur baby! Be specific on what you need for your pet or pets, and it'll get done, if they can do it. And book way in advance, if you know your vacation dates. They do get booked! While You R Away Pet Sitting are professionals, and I feel at ease with professionals! They are worth every penny! Thanks for reading, Yelpers!!!

Sarah and Maria are the best!…read more I really appreciate them coming through for us at the last minute when we needed help with our pet leopard gecko. Finding reliable reptile care in Orange County is rare, so I'm especially thankful they were able to help. Maria deserves a special shout-out because she handled all the legwork and immediately put me at ease with her reptile experience. From her very first visit, she took care of everything perfectly. I would give her more than five stars if I could! I highly recommend Critter Sitters for reptile pet sitting. We'll be bringing our dog in for pet sitting next time, and I'll definitely be back with another review--but for reptile care, you're absolutely in great hands with Maria. Steve R.

Ever since my older dog was diagnosed with diabetes, it has been so stressful trying to find someone I can truly trust to care for her. I knew I needed someone reliable while traveling out of the country, and I'm so grateful I found this company. Maria was incredible--she sent multiple photos and updates every single day, which meant so much to me. She was thorough, attentive, and I could genuinely tell how much my pups adored her. It was such a relief to be able to fully relax on my trip knowing my dogs were being loved and cared for as if they were her own. Highly recommend!

Lola does what Lola wants when Lola wants to do it. It can be pretty frustrating when your dog takes YOU for a walk. Lola was also born with really, really bad hips and has required surgery so that brings about a whole other concern, especially when it comes to trusting strangers with her well-being. Thank God for Art and his pet sitting business because I don't know how many people would have the patience for Lola if they didn't come help me out on my work days. I've been using Art's Pet Sitting for coming up to three years now. Art, and the ladies that fill in for him on occasion - are fantastic. Their prices are reasonable and they are incredibly reliable. I've spoken to Art on occasion about Lola and I can tell that he really cares about her health and has given me updates when something doesn't seem right with her. I could go on, but the bottom line is that if you need a reliable pet sitter with a lot of heart in South County, Art's Pet Sitting is the place to call.

For about the…read moresame price as boarding, my cat gets to be in the comfort of our own home and my place gets checked on while I'm away. Prior to our first booking, Art came over and met my cat and got all the instructions and keys. He gave me all his insurance and bond info as well as the names of people who work for him. He offers flexible payment methods and will hang onto keys and payment info so if I ever need service at the last minute, we are already set up. I'm thrilled that I found a reliable service!!
