    Timmy at Shady Acres - feeling needy and getting great treatment.
    Darin M.

    Everything from the first phone call with Amy, to the evening pick up was a pleasure. It was our dog's first time at a Doggy Daycare. He hasn't been socialized much and we wanted some extra attention. I felt that Shady Acres provided that, and not just because it was our first time. We noticed other families dropping off and picking up, as well as the Yard Cams - they have quality staff who care about your pet.

    Gracie playing in the play yard

    We absolutely love Shady Acres and their staff! Gracie has attended boarding, daycare and day-school, and she always comes home worn out. The minute we pull into the parking lot, Gracie cries with excitement and practically busts her way through the front door, eager to see her friends in the play yard! We also enjoy seeing her updates on social media! Great for busy weekends or workdays, or trips when you need boarding.

    Shady acres is wonderful!! Our dog loves going there for doggie daycare and boarding. The staff are so caring and good with the dogs!

    This is our first time using Shady Acres Ranch. Raider loved it here! He quickly made friends with other dogs and the staff we encountered were very friendly. Totally thought the staff would update us nightly, but that was a miscommunication on my part. They did answer my emails, regarding updates, promptly though. We used their grooming services for a nail trim, which was also reasonably priced. We thought they did an awesome job. Loved the play yard cameras to keep an eye out on our pupparoo, definitely a pain with traveling and wifi, but an indoor camera would be nice too. Raider came back totally tuckered out from his day of play. We will definitely be using them again in the near future.

    See all

Reason for this review: There's obviously a lot of trust involved in letting people take care of your pets and access your home. We have 100% confidence in Melissa and her team and want to share our experience because - when we were looking for long-term pet sitting - we didn't have any recommendations to help us. Five-star details: 1. Outstanding Communications. Melissa is always available, including by phone, text, and email. She does what she says she is going to do. We've spoken on the phone & Melissa has a great app which gives you updates and photos of your pet! 2. Genuine Caring. On our most recent trip, the weather got cold. Melissa's team members worked with us to turn on our well heater, ensure our pup was kept warm and cozy, and gave us detailed updates and photos. 3. Going Above & Beyond. Melissa called me about the cold weather to alert us in case we didn't know it was going to be below freezing and to ensure our pet was fully taken care of. Her team actually plays with your pet, spends real quality time, and ensures your pet feels loved. They brought our dog extra treats which was incredibly thoughtful because our dog is a senior citizen - and they actually know about dogs so they brought treats that are great for his health as well as being yummy!

    We have been using this pet sitting service of our cat for nearly 2 years, and cannot recommend it…read moreenough. The owner, Melissa, is very responsive. it is easy to schedule services and prices are very reasonable. All of the sitters that work for Melissa are professional, friendly and really love animals. The sitters send us an update and photos each day they visit and generally make sure our house is okay while we are away (i.e., take our garbage cans if we ask, bring in packages, etc.). We have full confidence that our cat (and our house) are in good hands while we are away. As a bonus, our cat LOVES all of the sitters ;)

I have known Ally for around 5-6 years and she has taken care of our German Sheppard over the years and has given the same love, attention and affection to our dog that she shows her own pups. I would trust Ally with my dog's life, no hesitation. She is very in-tune with pet behavior and notices abnormalities quickly. She provides some of the best experiences for pups, taking them to beautiful open spaces to run around, on nice hikes or bodies of water, as well as good socialization. WARNING: Your dog may love Ally more than you after being in her care! Not only is Ally more than capable of taking care of all of your dog's needs, but she is one of the most pleasant and fun people to be around. I have been the lucky one knowing Ally all these years and would recommend her to anyone!

I should mention Ally took care of Kramer from when he was just a wee little boy to almost six years old. She helped me train him (although he obeys her more than me). Also, and this is super cool, Ally is a vet tech, so she was always quick to point-out when I needed to take Kramer to the vet. Okay Austin folk: y'all are some lucky SOB's to have Ally in your backyard!

Allison and I attended the same college for the same degree, so we knew each other back in the day. We ran in similar circles. But this was 20 years ago. We hadn't spoken since college. I ended up moving to Austin a year ago for a job which required A LOT of travel. I saw a Facebook post that Allison had a pet sitting business. I contacted her because I felt like I was abusing all my friendships by asking them to take care of my cat while I traveled. Allison and I had a quick and energetic catch-up on the phone and scheduled a consultation. Allison and her partner came over to my house, and met my cat, Dewey. They quickly bonded. What surprised me the most was how professional this business is. Allison had a bunch of paperwork to go over with me. It was a legit operation. They have a website with a login where I can schedule services and pay my invoices. This has become one of the most useful aspects for using Chico and Chums. I can schedule a service on my portal and know that everything will be taken care of. A few months ago Dewey had some bladder problems and was on medicine. I had to go out of town for work and was terrified to leave him. Chico and Chums took great care of Dewey, and gave him his medicine, and gave me detailed updates. I was still a bit worried, so I asked for Dewey to be taken to the vet to make sure he was still okay. C&C was able to interact with my vet on my behalf and it really was a relief to know Dewey was in good hands. Now when i have to go out of town, I just immediately schedule service with Chico and Chums. I stopped asking my friends to help out because, honestly, you get what you pay for. The ease of scheduling and peace of mind that comes from using Chico and Chums is worth every bit of money I pay them. This has eased my stress and guilt about leaving my cat while I have to travel. I'm so thankful that I found a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. I know Allison personally and can vouch for her character, and she will love your pet like it's her own. Thanks Chico & Chums. You're the best!
