So, it's a relief…read moreto have found The Wag Staff, a company that I trust 100% to take good care of my pups when I am away from home. We have booked overnight care in our home and daily visits many times and always return to happy pups who have played lots and have been given loads of attention in our absence. Whether it is navigating a walk with two big dogs and sunbathing neighborhood cats, finding a lost ball, or getting our older dog to eat his meds, Arielle has been up for every challenge or special request while dog sitting for us. We get text and photo updates too, which is so nice when I'm missing my furry family members. Scheduling and paying for services is also a breeze. If you are looking for a reliable business that you can depend on for in-home dog care or dog walking, I highly recommend The Wag Staff.

It took a few times, but much less than I had anticipated for Shari to get them comfortable for her to be with them alone and leash them up and take their walk. She also walks our chihuaua, who also is difficult to gain trust. She has won her over as well. They all know when it is time for her to come for their walk, and wait by the door. It's chaos when she comes in, but they know if they behave they get to go. Shari is great with them, also arrives on time, and genuinely cares. I recommend her to everyone! Kim
