First off, I'd like to say that the thought of leaving our pets at home while we went on vacation…read morewas extremely stressful. But once we met John and Shauna, the owners, we quickly realized our fur babies were in the best hands possible. They were not only warm and welcoming but also incredibly professional. If you're a pet owner looking for a true 10-out-of-10 service, this is the company. Our pet sitter, Karen, was nothing short of amazing--so loving, so attentive, and so patient with our very needy black cat, Jax. She didn't just stop by; she stayed, hung out, and genuinely spent time with him. And even though our gray cat, Dolce, didn't come out very much, she was just as incredible in caring for her and making sure she felt safe and comfortable. Wow... just wow! We were floored by her love for animals. THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking such great care of the fur babies we love dearly. I would recommend this company to absolutely anyone. And honestly, anyone leaving anything less than a five-star review? Shame on you! These people love animals and treat your pets as if they were their own. Amazing, amazing, amazing! You'll always be our go-to whenever my wife and I take a vacation.

Pretty sad that I have to leave this review, but I did try to be patient and see if the business…read morewould get back to prospective customers. (I thought since the reviews were perfect, they might come thru... but instead... nada!) We were considering giving them a pet sitting job for over a month in length. But unfortunately they can't be reached via the phone. I left a vm and waited an entire week and got no call back. Backstory: Ironically I believe there's someone named Shauna who operates the website and Yelp(and does a prompt job responding), but John the caretaker is the one who's phone number is associated with the biz, and he is unable to be reached to line up appointments!! (I contacted them a year or two ago when we were considering using them. We didn't end up needing them, but when we tried them last week when we finally did, John did not decide to call us back.) I'm glad others have good experiences. But that was not ours. ‍

He sent pictures and notes each time to let us know everyone was eating, and doing alright. He left everything clean and neat with happy campers all around.

I was a little nervous about using a service that has multiple pet sitters to take care of my kitty…read morewhile I am away. How would they know what to do if they had never been to my apartment before? Randy (the owner) came to my apartment before the first visit and took copious notes about what to do. He asked that I buy a lock box on Amazon and place it somewhere in the garage of my building with my keys inside for the pet sitter. I'm used to giving my keys to my pet sitters, but this is actually pretty convenient because it means that I can get my key back right away when I come home. There have been a couple pet sitters who have been to my place, but Anna has been there the most. All of them post updates with photos that appear on the app that you can download on your smartphone (you also get an email copy of this as well). I feel like Anna has really gotten to know my kitty and I appreciate that she really seems to enjoy spending time with her. The other convenient thing about this pet sitter is that you can request the dates of your pet sits online and also you can pay for them with credit card afterwards.

He's very responsive and communicates any irregularities with your pet (diarrhea, not walking, not eating) that he notices. He's wonderful at sending video updates during the day of the "wild pup parties" (LOL) that seem to occur daily. Pups return home from both daycare and/or their walks exhausted and happy. Recommend Paws of the Valley 100%.

I feel so comforted and safe going on short to long trips knowing my home and my fur babies are in his care. 12/10 will always recommend!

We can't thank Ricardo and the entire team at CharlieBar enough! It's been a month since our…read more4-year-old rescue, Angus, completed his 3-week board and train--and we can confidently say we have a completely transformed dog. When we adopted Angus, an American Bulldog, he was extremely reactive, had zero impulse control, and was tough to manage. Walks were stressful--he would bark, lunge, and completely lose it around other dogs. Recall was non-existent, and previous trainers had little success with him. After his time at CharlieBar, everything changed. Angus now walks calmly on a leash, his reactivity has decreased by at least 90%, and he thrives during his daily training sessions at home. The most remarkable part of Ricardo's approach is that it goes beyond basic commands--he teaches dogs how to think, make decisions, and self-correct. It's not just about punishment or praise; it's about helping dogs understand their choices. With a simple "uh uh," Angus now stops, thinks, and chooses better behavior--without fear or confusion. We're beyond grateful for the results and highly recommend CharlieBar to anyone looking to make a lasting difference in their dog's behavior.

I was worried for a moment, leaving my dogs with someone new and especially finding someone to train them. Ricardo and everyone really put my mind at ease while I was in another state and getting those daily updates and seeing how much they've grown. They will definitely be back in the summer for more training as I feel like I have found someone that I can trust with my dogs. I know my dogs are very stubborn and scared of new people but they were very patient with them and really earn their trust. Thank you again guys again and will definitely see us again soon.

The utmost best and caring dog sitters!…read more From the initial meet & greet with Vince & Charish, you quickly realize how serious they take on the responsibility of caring for your pets. They ask many questions about your pet's needs/routines/special quirks & take down notes. As for their comfort level with dogs - astounding! All 4 of our dogs are sweet little reactive nutcases with unique quirks/fears and they all took to Vince & Charish quite easily. They even accepted belly rubs! If anyone is nervous about leaving your pets under the care of someone else - you can put your mind at complete ease with them & actually enjoy your vacation. This is a whole different level than hiring a neighborhood teenager and simply hoping they remember to feed your pet (and even more importantly - to not forget them outside in the yard/allow them to slip out the front door when they leave!) Vince and Charish also send a little daily update with some great pics of your furry babies while you're away. Their attention to detail is second to none & their love and care of animals is genuine and refreshing to see.

Soooo thankful they messaged me after I posted on a Facebook group needing a pet sitter for my babies. We travel a lot and I wanted to find someone that would treat our dogs as their own and happy to say I found them!! With the meet and greet, I immediately felt comfortable leaving on my trip. My pups are reactive and although they were jumping of excitement to meet them and even one of our dogs feeling a big uneasy at first, they knew the right techniques immediately on how to calm them down and connect with our dogs within a couple of minutes of meeting. They even came twice just to ensure my pups knew who they were once we were gone. They send daily photos and updates, making our trips super relaxed. I was aware of everything with the updates and we got back from our trip to some happy pups. They even throw out the trash and pick up the dog poop so we don't come home to some more work. They truly do go above and beyond and we can't thank them enough for being the best dog sitters. We will forever be clients of Vince Van Go LLC

We receive daily updates and pictures (honestly something to look forward to during your vacation) and know they are being taken care of while we're gone. Even though we've been using her service for almost a year and a half, she will always text us before every trip to make sure nothing has changed. Kristine is truly a pet owner's dream - you don't need to worry your pets are being taken care of because you know they will be by Kristine and her employees! Her website is so easy to use and you can book months ahead of time, there's so many places to leave notes about house care (eg. You need plants watered) and specific animal care. We really could not be more lucky to have found her to take care of them! She is always reachable if something changes and she has really made going on vacation a dream. I will recommend her (and her company) to anyone that asks and will continue to use her as long as she's in business. I could not give her a more glowing review!
