A few months ago, our dog, Alfie, became what we called, Facebook famous, after his door dashing…read morehabit resulted in his photo being plastered over all the Baltimore neighbor groups. After his last great escape, I realized that he needed some exercise to break up the monotony of his day. I emailed Andy and he was kind enough to come out that day and meet Alfie (and us, the humans in Alfie's life.) Andy started coming the next day to run with Alfie and wear him out until we get home. It's only been a few weeks but so far, so good. Andy is a pleasure to deal with. He's communicative and great with both people and animals. We really can't thank him enough for everything he's done for us and for Alfie.

We went on vacation for Memorial Day, as promised, and once again asked Dan to stop by and take…read morecare of Miss Kitteh. As always, he did a fabulous job - she was fed, entertained, and treated like the Royal Highness that she is. I had written some detailed instructions this time because of certain changes that had occurred since their last visit, and everything went smoothly and exactly as planned. To top it off, Dan actually let me know that I had overpaid them and said that he would credit my account for a future vacation - now that, my friends, is honesty. As far as I'm concerned, they can keep that money as a tip, because they surely deserve it. I am so glad that I selected Dog Day Afternoon as my pet sitting provider. As you can see by the other reviews, they're unmatched in both care and customer service.

We've been using Love Those Paws since 2015 to watch our cockatiels when we go on vacation. It is…read moremuch less expensive than boarding them at the vet and less stressful for the animals. The sitters vary but all are enthusiastic based on the reports they leave. After every visit the sitter leaves a note of when they came and left and what they did. They also usually text us an update and a picture of our birds. We come back to a stack of reports. The sitter stays a while after the food, water, and paper are changed to make sure the birds aren't acting weird, and I hear that some singing goes on. We've never had a problem and have be accommodated at very short notice when we want to go away for the weekend. I highly recommend this company. 1/27/20 Update: Just used them again during a ten day trip to Hawaii. I'm pretty sure our birds are in love with Alex, who came for most oF the visits. Now they are just stuck with us. As always, a great experience and we love being able to travel without any worries.

Love Those Paws was great from the moment I messaged them for a quote until I returned from…read morevacation. Stewart guided me through setting up a time to go over all the particulars. Despite me typing up a whole instruction sheet, he insisted on walking through again just to be sure (which is very reassuring). The actual pet sitting was spectacular. The pet sitter who was assigned was Kim. She spent plenty of time with the cats and made sure they were well cared for while I was away. The visit reports they leave are really cute as well. Could not have gone smoother! I'd also like to add that they were available with very short notice (3 other pet sitting companies were unable to handle our request). Also want to add that Stewart (when he came for the home visit) was wearing a mask and gloves to protect against COVID (a welcome sight). Pet owners would should have their minds at ease if they select Love Those Paws. If I go on vacation again (few and far between these days) I would definitely use them again!

If there were more stars, I'd use them.

I need to start with a disclaimer. Pecora pet was NOT hired because Tiffany is a good friend. I DID…read moreNOT KNOW Her when I hired them therefor this review is 100% business and has nothing to do with friendship. Our friendship came about as we hot to know each other. We bonded. That being said friendship is friendship and business is business. My good friend Tiffany Pecora and her mom Judy Baker Pecora own Pecora's Pet Care, LLC. Tiff took care of D&G while we were away. Let me tell u.. If u need pet sitting USE THEM!! Tiffany is a good friend but treated this like a job separate from our friendship. The pups stayed on schedule, had walks, lots of cuddling. I got pics & updates. She stripped my bed and put on new sheets and pillow cases and made the bed beautifully! She folded all blankets (offered to wash them all but I stopped her OCD lol!) picked up all toys and the house was SO CLEAN! It made coming home stress free. Whether u need a pet walked, let out, boarding, or overnights at ure house USE THEM!! We also used them daily the 1st year of Gia's life. Let me tell you they were saints. Gia peed in her crate almost daily. They would clean the crate, clean her then walk them both without complaint. We asked Gia be hand fed her lunch (we were teaching her to take food gently as well as practice small commands like "sit" & "stay" ) well she did that too (I have security cameras that no one can see and I saw her doing every single thing I asked of her) I felt like I hit some kind of doggy jackpot!! They are the reason I can go out late, go on vacation, know if there's an emergency they will handle it and I never have to stress! I also recommended them to my SIL. A older friend of hers was standing beside in a hospice as his wife was dying. He knew it would be a week or so and HATED leaving her bedside but had a dog at home. My SIL contacted them (Pecora) and explained his dilemma. They moved things, worked extra hours and gave the man updates on his dog so he could stay by his wife and focus on her. He later mentioned that they were a godsend. He would never have forgiven himself if he left and she passed but because of Pecora Pet that wasn't going to be a worry. I swear you will rest easy while away and when u return!

Theifs and Frauds! Stay away! Couldn't even handle a fish. No accountability. Their standard of…read moreservice is, if the animal is still alive, we did our job. We hired this company to care for our rabbit and our fish for 2 weeks. The rabbit had no water in either container when we returned, but was otherwise fine. The fish, however, was near death in murky, slimy, smelly water! (We did the biweekly water change the day before we left.) Very simple instructions were given for the fish (a beta), 3 pellets daily while we are away. While we were on vacation, the employee called saying, "The pump stopped working, the water was foggy, and the fish completely disappeared." She said she even took the items out and couldn't find the fish. Ok, very odd, but what can we do when 2000 miles away? Fast forward, we return home to find the fish apparently had made himself reappear, although pale and dying in an unfiltered tank full of rotting food. The water was so murky from rotting fish food, one could not even see the other side of the tank. 3 pellets a day for 2 weeks=42 pellets. There were LITERALLY well over one hundred pellets rotting on the bottom of the tank and stuck in the filter intake. The pump/filter was completely clogged but worked fine after I pulled all the food out. Apparently she was just haphazardly sprinkling/dumping food in the tank. Certainly not something you would expect from "professionals." We called Tiffany Pecora immediately, obviously irrited, just to be told that "accidents happen" and "tanks always get dirty when food sits in them." And the most shocking comment came in a rude voice "At least your fish isn't dead". What about the fact that there shouldn't be rotting food at the bottom if he was fed properly?! Or the fact that he was said to be missing in a two gallon tank? Anyway, Judy Pecora calls us a bit later saying that we were "lying about all of it and just trying to make money." It should be noted that our neighbor offered to look after them for free. It was never about the money, we were hoping for experience because we care about our animals. We have used services like this in the past with great results. Just stay away from these people.

I…read moretravel a lot for work and they cat sit for me often, leaving notes behind about my little guy's activities. I used to be very anxious about leaving my house for extended trips but they bring in my mail and check around the house for any 'gifts' my guy has left behind. One experience comes to mind as a huge help. I was on a plane coming back from London and my kitchen ceiling started to flood. They found a bucket in the house and put it under the drips, called me, and sent a video to my phone. When I landed I was able to schedule a plumber right away to meet me at the house. By having the bucket in place they prevented untold damage to the kitchen and basement. They've been easy to schedule and work with and respond quickly to e-mails. When I come home my little dude is always happy, well fed, and has plenty of water in his dish. If I wasn't moving far away, I'd definitely continue using their service.
