I agree with all the great reviews for Cuddles On Call! Megan and Justin did a wonderful job and I…read morewasn't worried about the medicine that my cat has to have twice a day; they were happy to do so, 12 hours apart -- and they are skilled at giving meds in general. They video taped the cats hanging out and getting lots of attention and sent it to me while we were gone. I actually got home a bit early, so it was terrific that Justin could give lots of attention to my male cat (who obviously adored him and wouldn't stop rubbing up against his legs) while I brought my stuff in. Justin even offered to help me unload, but it was even better to see how much the cats loved them! I would recommend them to anyone who has to leave their homes -- it's reassuring to know that pet sitting isn't just a 'job' to them -- they love animals! If I still had dogs, I would also hire them in a heartbeat! Carroll H. PS Sorry it took me so long to post this, guys!

All of their sitters are highly dependable and skilled. You can tell they are passionate about caring for animals and providing the best service possible.

i 100% appreciate Oak City Pet Sitting! We went on vacation and didn't have the stress of bringing…read moreour 2 cats with us. (It would have been stressful for us and stressful for them!) I contacted Alex w/Oak City & they were able to get our pets in even with pretty short notice. Oak City came to our home each day we were gone to feed & water our boys as well as scoop litter & administer meds to one of them. They also took a pic of them everyday and texted it to me. I 100% looked forward to getting that pic everyday. They were really nice and easy to work with. We're definitely going to use them again next time we go on vacation. Two thumbs (and two paws) up!

Within about an hour, Goodman was ready to come back in smelling and looking great. The entire process was extremely seamless, and going forward we will be using pack&pride for not only grooming but walking as well. Thank you Jason and Team!

We cannot say enough amazing things about Melissa!…read more She has been visiting our sweet guy, Jax, for the last couple years and she has been nothing short of kind and loving towards him. When we leave for work, we have no doubts in our mind that Melissa will be there for him at his schedule time. On top of that, she always texts us when she leaves and fills us in on their play date. Melissa has even watched Jax while my husband and I went on vacation. We always vacationed easy knowing that when Jax was with Melissa he was safe and fed, and most importantly getting tons of love and playtime! Melissa is simply the best and we are so happy that we found her!

Ok, am not sure my last review posted, so sorry if this is a repeat…read more I called At Your Bark 'N Call on a Sunday after boarding our dogs fell through. Melissa called back almost immediately and we set an appointment up for her to assess the dogs, our needs, etc. Zeke, my oldest is the one I gather from on who is a good guy or someone I need to watch. He seemed fine, but it was our shy Artemis that sealed the deal!! Melissa knows dogs and is experienced at what she does. I love the texts she sends to let me know everyone is okay. I also love the texts from my neighbors letting me know they're seeing some happy puppies out with Melissa!! I highly recommend At Your Barn 'N Call to help you with your precious ones!!!

Called Carolina Pet Angels because my aunt and uncle used them for a while and I got a lecture from…read morethem about booking vacation far in advance. They were rude and not accommodating at all. If I knew in advance I would have booked in advance. My uncle said they were not good anymore anyway they used to have good pet sitters and now they have teens who don't care and the company doesn't care either. They didn't even stay thirty minutes like they were supposed to and hardly walked the dogs for 5 minutes. Then they told my uncle they don't service Apex anymore so company doesn't care they just want your money.

We recently started using their services a few months…read moreago for our rescued pitbull, as an alternative to taking him to a kennel where they leave him in a cage for most of the time- we wanted to keep him comfortable while we went away- so we tried Carolina Pet Angels. They took the time to come and meet our dog, engage him, and throughout our trips, they constantly send pictures and updates via text. its incredibly reassuring to know he's in good hands. A few months ago we had an ice storm while we were out of town. Carolina Pet angels stayed overnight at our house to make sure toby was taken care of - truly above and beyond our expectations- would recommend them to anyone who is tired of sending their dog to "jail" when they travel. i know our dog enjoys the visits and being in his own home.

When you need to leave your furry little friend going on vacation, who can you call? Raleigh Pet…read moreSitters! I always feel a bit guilty leaving my Bengal cat behind when I take off but what can you do? Thankfully, Raleigh Pet Sitters has become a reliable part of the team that makes my traveling life a bit easier with pet-sitting and general home upkeep. Before you sign up as a client they do an in-house visit to first get the details, smart idea. At $19/day for a visit which includes taking care of kitty-fido, grabbing mail and more, I've used them several times over the last year or so. They've been reliable and good with communications while I'm out. They also try to pair you up with the same pet-sitter for consistency which is a nice plus. And if you follow their Facebook page, they post regularly on their visits which is a good way to stay engaged. So overall no complaints about Raleigh Pet Sitters, they have done a very solid job for me and yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll be using them again. If I could only get my cat out from under the bed while I'm gone, now that would be a pet-sitting miracle...

We had such a great experience working with Raleigh Pawz! Everyone we interacted with was…read moreprofessional and friendly. Our dog is very nervous around strangers, but our weekend away went so smooth for him thanks to Lindsey. She was clearly experienced working with dogs and was very patient with him as he slowly warmed up to her. She also gave us great updates each visit with lots of photos which was so sweet. Can't recommend enough if you're looking for a pet sitter!

We have used this pet sitting service 3x in the last 3 months and couldn't be happier…read more We struggled trying to find someone on short notice (the BF isn't a planner), but we were thankful to find this company. The initial interview with Nadia was informative ( our cats did not behave, but that didn't deter the service). She explained all of the services that would be provided and provided us with the magnet card for the fridge. This was to be used for scanning in and out of the house. You need to log into your account to see the time stamp in and out and the standard information of the pet care. The website is easy to navigate! Our sitter, Hannah, is awesome and she sends daily updates along with the picture of our allusive babies (they are hiders, but this last visit they finally came out to say HI!). I think Hannah was super stoked to get the rare sighting of our Tuxedo Man, as he's not fond of strangers. You could tell by email she was elated! She has crawled under beds to try to capture these two and we thank her for that! She lays out their toys so she knows if they are coming out while she's away and that's comforting to know. She also hides treats around the house to make sure they are coming out as well. On our first trip away, it was just a long weekend, but it's hard to leave your fur babies, we arrived to a clean litter box, food and water full, and the floor free from litter (cat owners know this is no easy feat). When we were gone on another vacation, the snow--apocalypse happened in Raleigh. Four Paws contacted us immediately regarding the weather. They kept us up to date about the status of the roads. Since we just have cats, we didn't want anyone to risk too much by driving, since these babies don't have to be let out and other animals may have needed that attention more., so we told them that if it was too dangerous to not risk it and just try again the next day. They continued to update us and did make it to the house safe and sound. We even told her to not stay the full time just to make sure she was safe. Hannah's emails are funny and written just as how I picture she talks. We enjoy these little tid bits as we are enjoying vacations away from the babies. I really like the services that we have received and they will be booked soon for another vacation we have planned next month!

Unreliable & Disorganized…read more We're new to the area and I needed to find a new pet sitter to cover a planned weekend trip next month. I originally reached out to Four Paws based on good reviews I saw here, but unfortunately had a very frustrating experience instead. Firstly, before being willing to discuss anything they demanded that I make an account on their website and then fill out an extremely lengthy profile. Then, a day or so later, they emailed to ask for specifics for our trip and said they'd be arranging a visit with our sitter, which I answered that same day. Then, after a lull in communication, I got another email asking for the same information I'd provided previously. I provided it again and, again, nothing happened. Finally, having wasted over a week with their cumbersome process and these communication difficulties, I emailed again to ask what was going on... only to get an email back saying their only pet sitter in this area was on maternity leave for the next month and that they couldn't help me - something that they should have know days and days earlier. Now I will have to scramble to find some other arrangements, causing a lot of needless stress and anxiety and possibly putting our plans in jeopardy. They did offer some suggestions of other pet sitters in the area to use, but to those reading this - save yourself a lot of hassle and headache and just pick someone else. UPDATE: The business has responded below by posting private emails including my email address out of context, but only the last set of emails, ignoring the fact that they seem to have lost the first set, and then accused me of lying. I deeply regret giving them any personal information in the first place and would strongly encourage others not to do so.

Just picked up our fur people - 2 dogs and one small cat after we returned from a 10 day vacation…read more All we can say is WOW- beautiful grooming, happy pups and cat, so well taken care of. The three animals said they had a fantastic time at their doggie spa. They are so happy - we LOVE Sherrill and her team. The groomer did an amazing job on our Bichon and our Schnauzer. I highly recommend PAWS and we definitely will have them care for our pets again. We also have them for home visits for our shorter times away- and we love them for that as well. Very reasonable rates too.

I also had my dog groomed towards the end of her stay, which turned out adorable. Upon picking my dog up, and returning home, she was barely able to keep her eyes open in the car! I can only assume her playtime and the attention she was given was enough to keep her calm and happy. I appreciated that there were three separate areas, one for big dogs, one for medium dogs, and a quiet area for small dogs. They also returned leftover food. Very affordable - would definitely go back! My pup acted completely normal after pick up which was reassuring that she was comfortable.
