We love Doris Anderson with K-9 Bootcamp!!! My husband surprised me with a puppy for our 1 year…read moreanniversary while I surprised him with a trip to Greece. We found ourselves in quite the predicament, as he was too young to board at a kennel. We reached out to Doris and she made a special exception to accept him into her board and train program when he was only 10 weeks old... When she dropped him off after the program was complete, we had an 11.5 week old puppy housebroken and sleeping through the night with no crate accidents. What surprised me the most is that he patiently waits for you to open his crate and invite him out, he waits for you to invite him to go through the front the door and also waits in his "place" while you get his food ready. In addition to being such a patient sweet boy, he also knows how to sit, lay down, roll over, shake, spin right, spin left, leave-it, play hide and seek, and stay!! She also introduced him to swimming in her swimming pool and socialized him with multiple safe dogs and people. She was very responsive, professional and kept us posted daily on his progress and adventures. We felt at ease knowing he was in such a loving home. This is truly her passion and it shows through the wonderful work she did with sweet Chewy. We LOVE Doris and can't recommend her enough!

However, Emma makes you feel so comfortable with the process and explains everything you need to know. During the pick-up sessions, she would send me videos of her working with Roo, which not only calmed my nerves, but also showed her progress throughout the process. Once we began the in home sessions, Emma took the time to ensure my husband and I understand the ins and outs of commands for Roo and gave us the confidence we needed to be successful for Roo. I cannot recommend her or Left Turn enough. We are so grateful for her working with our slightly difficult pup and teaching us all we needed to know as well. I wish everyone could hire her for their training needs!

We went on a vacation to WDW from 2/8 to 2/14 and our regular sitter had taken some time off, so we…read moredecided to use Furry Pals. We were put in touch with Jill, to take care of our home and finches. Right off the bat we liked her. She was on time for the meeting, she was personable, and was interested in our birds. We were excited to leave, and felt so confident things would be fine, we didn't leave our house security cameras on. We asked jill to come every morning from 2/9 to 2/14. She said that wasn't a problem, and she would text me after every visit. My husband was at this meeting too, that is exactly what she said she would do. The good: our birds received daily care. They also got their cage papers changed, she left me extra newspaper, she got the mail, and vacuumed the area around the birds. The house was still as clean as I left it, and our house was secure when we got home. I would like to say this visit earned 4 stars, but there are communication problems........ We left early on the 8th and took care of the bird bath /drinking water before we left. I texted jill to let her know we left, I asked for text updates, and let her know what I took care of before we left. She said she would text me after every visit and we were confirmed. So the 9th I waited to hear from her in the morning, and didn't. I texted her to find out what was going on, and she said she had a doctor's appt in the morning, and now, after lunch, she was on her way. I was not aware of any other appointments she had, and our birds had to go a long time between when we left to when she arrived to change the bath water. I had to ask her how things went after she finally arrived, she didn't send me a text update automatically. I wrote Nancy to let her know what happened. She basically forwarded my info to jill. I would rather Nancy have talked to me instead of just passing the info back to where the issue seemed to be, communication with Jill. For the next few mornings, the texts consisted of 3 word sentences like: "all good here". Since there are no care notes being left at home, I felt that was very vague. Did we get mail? Are there any office notes left on the door? Are the birds doing okay? If all I am getting is just a text update, it should be a little more than "all good here". So on the 14th, the last day, I waited to hear from jill after her morning visit. At 1:20 in the afternoon I had to text her to find out what was going on at home. We were on a long drive, and I am having to chase down info from home. This is the pet sitters job. On their website they boast about the detailed notes you will receive from your pets. And how they give these long 30 minute visits for every pet visit. So I ask about the key. She told me when we met that she could drop it off. She knew it was my husbands key, no worries. So I asked her if she could stop by tomorrow. No. She now offers to mail it, or put it under the mat. I sent text instructions to put it on the back porch. So she went to lunch, and was going to come over. I heard nothing else. No confirming the key was left. She didn't respond to my text. So I wrote Nancy. I guess jill told her the key was left. Nobody updated me.....? I let Nancy know I wasnt pleased that on this trip I had to ask what was going on, she didn't tell me about the first day being late, I didn't know she left the key, and Nancys response was that jill told us both she had a doctor's appointment that first day, she only tells Nancy she leaves keys and not clients, there was no appologies for lack of text updates, and Nancy believes what jill tells her. Jill did not tell us the first day would be a delayed visit for any appointments . I know she didn't because the response from her was "well emergencies come up". I assume that when you talk to the owner, Nancy, there would be some acknowledgement or concern that her employee /IC/etc would be showing up, also a client having to keep asking for updates, and not knowing whether a key was left or not. I felt she was basically telling me it was my word against jills, and well, she said she knows what jill told her. Good to know where clients then stand. Any issues, she defends the sitter. But I have the texts. Me asking for info. Me asking if she had visited. Me having to ask her boss. I have the paperwork where I asked for morning visits. And no communication about the first visit being late. You shouldn't have to chase anyone down for info, details, especially, "have you been to my house today"????????? That is part of the job. And you know what, if something happens at a house, is this how it goes? The employee was in the right? They don't show up for hours, ah, that's ok. They don't let you know where your key is, that's ok. They don't even text you the last day so you know they were there.....REALLY? And I find it very suspicious that there are three new yelp reviews left today....when the last ones were 11 months ago....and all 2 days apart. Hmmm

I reached out to her after a while a moved to NC from Boston, and after a few other groomers turned me down because of my dogs breed (Luna and Bosco are Samoyed and have a full double coated fur). I had no clue of the place or about the groomer, but Amanda and her assistant went above and beyond to try to fit us in their busy schedule. From the minute I walked in, I had a sense of safety and security for my dogs, and both of them felt at easy and comfortable walking in. This never happened before when going to a groomer.... With Amanda they felt s with a flare friend and were not nervous to leave. Before I left Amanda covered everything that I needed to be looked at and taken care of, having a great consideration for their needs and personality. She took her time and when I returned to pick them up they were even more beautiful, they were clean, they smelled good and most importantly "they were not traumatized at all". Her assistant Mariah is also wonderful and she handled Luna and Bosco with such grace and sweetness when she returned them to me. I am totally super satisfied with the place, the atmosphere and Amanda and Mariah. I will not go anywhere else and I am thankful to those who turned us down, they did me a huge favor, so to find Sassy Pup Grooming.
