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.

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!

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!

I had my dog trained here years ago as a pup but now he has some behavior issues that I know they can fix, but they don't want to touch him. The Secretary's exact words - "it might be better to find another trainer". This is how they treat past customers that spent thousands to have their dog trained here. ZERO CONCERN!
