We left our dog here over the weekend, and were thrilled with our experience. This was the first…read moretime we were leaving our dog with someone who wasn't a friend or family, so we were a bit nervous going in. Elizabeth clearly knows her stuff, and took time to make sure we felt comfortable with a really helpful packet of information for us along with a short meet and greet visit at her home where our dog would be staying. Throughout the visit, Elizabeth kept us updated with texts, short videos and photos. When we picked up our dog, he was so happy and exhausted - almost like what you'd expect picking up a kid from sleep away camp. This was truly an exceptional experience for all of us, and we will definitely be reaching out to Elizabeth the next time we need a dog sitter!

We've been bringing our dog, Chubbs, to stay with Elizabeth for a while now and it's always been…read moreamazing. She's so attentive, caring and such a warm person. She sends us updates during his stay and is always so responsive. Chubbs also LOVES coming to Elizabeth's and is always so comfy when he's there as he gets to free lounge and play with his friends! Boarding with Elizabeth always puts our minds at ease when we're away - we couldn't have asked for anyone better to care for our boy.

I recommend Woods Wags and Wiggles to anyone who has a dog that doesn't do well in a caged…read moreenvironment or has never been caged before. Anyone with a dog who is use to a home environment would love this place! I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who has a dog that doesn't socialize well with other dogs. We have a 3 year old Golden Retriever that we recently left with Janice at her home. He was well taken care of and kept busy. Our golden has never been caged and gets scared easily, he is use to having free range of the house so we were worried about taking him to a boarding place where he would be locked up most of the day. We got lucky to find Wags and Wiggles. It was in our area and the prices are unbeatable! Janice took great care of him. We left him there for 6 days and nights and Janice sent us photos of our pup almost everyday with a little update on how he was doing and what he was up to and he looked very happy! She has a big fenced in yard where the dogs can play and exercise. He was able to socialize with other dogs and feel like he was at home which is what we wanted for him while we were away. I will be using Wags and Wiggles again in the future!

For years I have asked them to please take on more clients,..although for admittedly selfish…read morereasons. I wanted to get my friends in on the same service I was receiving. The owner Liz recently decided to take on clients herself, and I couldn't be more excited for all the pet owners of Lakeview. A roommate and his dog moved out a few years ago, and I lucked out and got the introduction when he left. My dog was a puppy, and the timing couldn't have been better to get him the best playmate possible. Let me describe my situation... I have a job that makes me travel to both coasts every month. And I have both a cat and a dog that are one of the biggest parts of my life. Fortunately whether its a few days; or even one one occasion three weeks, Liz will come spend as much time as you want with your pets. My one complaint with sidewalk pup? My pets being torn when I walk in the door between being incredibly happy to see me...and looking for the door knock announcing Liz is here. I give recommendations only when they're earned, and I can't stand behind a business more than sidewalk pup. They fit me in the first day I called and needed it, and this is company you can choose and be confident you made the right choice.

Most importantly- the price is unbelievably cheap for the service and other pet-sitters. Highly recommend this service for cat owners!

She is been walking Godzilla when we need, and also stayed with him at our place when we traveled for the weekend. Carmella is responsible and lovable with our dog. During walks and when she dog sat for us, she sent us updates and pictures! I even had a neighbor that knows our dog mentioned to me how great she is with Godzilla. I couldn't be happier!

All three of us couldn't be happier to have her and her crew in our lives. Thank you Carmella!!!!!

No one loves or cares for dogs as much as Valarie. As everyone knows, pets are family. After doing…read moreour research, when we had to go out of town, we chose to leave our two dogs, Bella and VonHellsing with Valarie. She has shown nothing but compassion and kindness to our dogs and to us! If a dog gets sick on her watch, she immediately takes them to the vet and communicates with you. Recently, Bella got cancer and I leaned on Valarie to help me handle this very sad situation! The dogs get more exercise at Valarie's than with us. When they come home, they sleep most of the first day. I have always felt confident that my dogs were in good, capable hands when they were with Valarie!

Valerie is a delight to work with. While it seems a tiny bit pricey (I pay $18 per visit with my…read moretwo cats--pretty standard in this area), it's not when you consider what you're getting. She is considerate and caring, and I feel 100% comfortable leaving my kitties with her (as much as I hate leaving them!). The best part is Valerie doesn't bat an eyelash at whatever preposterous instructions you leave with her. One of my cats is a finicky eater, so I have a comical song-and-dance routine that I have to go through every morning to get both boys fed before I leave. I left instructions after explaining over the phone, and she was happy to do it! I know if I had a friend try to do it, I couldn't trust them to give that level of care, and I'd feel weird even asking. Long story short, if you want the best care, I'd trust Valerie. As with many things, I'm sure you could find cheaper somewhere (Craigslist), but you'll get what you pay for.

We have used Wags-A-Lot Pet Services for years now, and we are so thankful to Julie and her team…read morefor taking care of our dog Clarkson with an unparalleled level of professionalism, dependability, and most importantly, love. Clarkson's breed is notoriously standoffish. He doesn't love a ton of people. But boy does he love Julie. He also doesn't love puddles. Thunderstorms. Other dogs. Salty sidewalks. And seriously, most people. But boy does he love Julie. He loves Julie because she knows all this about him. She treats our dog like we treat our dog; she loves our dog. You just don't get that from everyone. It's special, and we are grateful for it. From an administrative standpoint, the scheduling, payment, and open communication that we have always experienced make it so that we barely have to think about Clarkson's daily mid-day walks. From an emotional standpoint, it seems like Clarkson may love Julie and her team more than he love us. We're learning to accept it ;) Thank you Julie and everyone at Wags-A-Lot Pet Services. We could not be happier with everything that you do for us!

I have never enlisted a dog sitter with my previous pup so I was a little nervous. Sadie was caring at the initial "meet & greet" 2 weeks prior and texted me pics and videos over the 48-hour stay. My pup was very well cared for and she made sure I was updated. She even took out the trash and laundered the sheets & towels before leaving which was completely unexpected. Needless to say, I am so thankful for the professionalism, reliability, and communication and I've recommended them to other neighbors.
