She took him on hikes twice a day with other dogs and sent many photos during the week. Talking with her reveals a deep understanding of animals and their different needs.

I called Nancy to find out more about her pet sitting services. I asked her how many hours my dog…read morewould be unsupervised during overnight pet sitting, which I think is a fair question. Nancy snaps at me "I don't just sit and stare at the dog all day!" Quite an overreaction. In fact, by asking how many hours my dog would be unsupervised, I'm already implying that I know my dog is not going to be watched every minute of the day. Strangely, she then encourages me to call her back to schedule dog sitting. No thanks!

We've had our two dogs (both Dalmatians) in the care of the team at MT Tam Dog Company for several…read moreyears now and we're really happy with their service. Erin and Dave - the two founders of this business - are very approachable and super responsive, which is something that I really appreciate. At first, we only had one dog (Momo) and before they accepted her into the pack, Dave came by our house to "interview" her. I really enjoyed meeting him and listening to the philosophy behind the business. Later, when we got a puppy (Málaga), he came over again and checked her "compatibility" as well. What I really enjoy is getting email notifications when they come to pick up the dogs as well as when they drop them off. Sometimes they even leave little notes, such as this one: "Momo and Malaga did super today! Malaga didn't pull hardly at all, and Momo was very easy as always. We had a fun hike :)" Just recently, they also introduced dog boarding and we had a very good experience with that as well. Eddie - who also walks our dogs throughout the week - stayed at our house, while we enjoyed a few days of "kids free" time! He kept us informed with pictures every day - we loved it.

Unmanaged dogs, irresponsible owner…read more In September, I was bitten by a large dog that was being walked by one of the dog walkers from this company. I went to see a doctor to make sure that the puncture wounds and bleeding weren't going to be a problem. At the time I was bitten the owner the company let me know he would be happy to help. A couple of months later, the bill for under $200 arrived and I asked David L to pay it as agreed; but he was singing a very different tune. The owner then decided not to pay the bill, called it a 'scratch', and insisted that it was my fault. Use this company at your own risk.

I just can't say enough about how AMAZING Samantha is in taking care of our little Toonces. We went…read moreaway for a long 4 day weekend, and he was so cozy and comfortable with her at Camp Purrific. We will always have Sam and her Dad watch our boy for any time away (space is limited, so reserve ahead of time). Toonces also has to have an inhaler 2x a day, and she took care of his every need. We are now relaxed going away on vacation knowing he has his "Auntie Sam" and Papa Tom (this is how we now refer to them both), to spend his days while we're away. My husband and I can't thank her enough...THE BEST!

I can't say enough good things about Purrific Pet Sitting. Jamie has been our cat sitter for over a…read moreyear now and I don't want to even imagine what it would be like to not have her care for our kitties when we travel. I knew she was the perfect sitter when she came by for the initial meet and greet and she already remembered their names and their personalities, likes/dislikes, and special needs, based on the write-up I provided. The kitties gave their immediate approval when they came out from hiding and actually greeted her with head bumps and asked for more petting. For cat owners, you know that's the best you can get. My husband and I miss our pets dearly when we go away even for a weekend, but with the daily updates with pictures it provides us with a world of relief so that we can actually relax on vacation.. and I'm a bit of a worry wart too so that says a lot!

I could never understand places that could watch cats. It seems to go against their demeanor…read more My friend has been bringing all her cats here from the beginning of their opening saying how unique it was- that was the last time I visited, and I am so surprised how well it has been tweaked to perfection with A/C/air etc. but especially at this place! I know another place in San Rafael that had like some giant room with all the cats, which sounded chaotic to me. People would say, "oh it works out" or "you just need to have that kind of social cat." My cat is chill but doesn't care for the interloping neighbor cats -so wasn't sure how this would work out. She gets so upset with a visitng cat coming face to face with her in our windows. This place has little suites of different sizes for each cat or groups of cats from the same family and you can get video updates on your cat, plus extras if you so choose; like If you want to FaceTime your cat daily etc. This was my first time going and I was in a pinch, really needed a place for my cat to stay so we had to try it, it was slow going at the beginning, first video was all dark cause she was in her carrier hunkered down, but the final kitty email we got on the day of pick up our cat was out of her carrier taking pets and sweet talking although also kind of growling and hissing, ultimately kind of came around which was pretty amazing. I realize cats are not wanting change, certain cats, especially probably mine, but I was impressed to see the progress from her on that last day. Definitely worth a try it if you are in a pinch with a very picky cat. My cat is up at the crack of dawn, climbing trees and loves the garden and watching the wildlife fly in and out of the garden and sleeping in different window sill etc. comes in late. I do feel like next time she could get to the top of the perch of her suite next time and realize it is another version of her climbing tree. The staff totally understands the personality of cats, what they want and don't want, they are the boss and they are just so sweet to them and understanding. It goes a long way and takes very special talent to do this job great which they do .

Also they were really flexible and accommodated my schedule which made things so much easier for me. My younger cat Mango it is very anxious and do not do very well in new places, but they were so good with him that when I picked him up he wasn't stressed out at all about being away from home. Plus they sent me a "cat mail" which made me feel so much relieved seing that my babies were doing well during the day. I would definitely recommend and use their services again. 10/10

They offer so much more than just dog walking -- it's kinda like sending your dog off to day camp. If I'm at home on a day when Michael's coming, I already know when he turns onto our street because Roxy gets all excited. Then she just trots off with him without so much as a backward glance. He's the perfect combination for her, gentle but no-nonsense. Michael is both incredibly flexible and dependable, which is great for me because my schedule changes frequently. You definitely get a lot for your money with Michael. When I travel, whether I'm gone overnight or away for several weeks, Roxy always stays with Michael and Peter. I never have any concerns. I know Roxy will come home tired and happy.

We did a "test walk" where she brought our dog and myself with her small group of doggies. Since then she has been walking our boy for a year. Sid is dependable, reliable, and trustworthy. She has been completely devoted to our dog and is very intuitive knowing what's up with him. She's extremely easy to get ahold of and proactive with followup. She's great with the dogs and able to take care of special needs. My one complaint would be that I wished she worked weekends! Sometimes I work long shifts and am gone all weekend- even if my partner's home it's nice to have someone else help and take the dog out. Sid is so great we wish we could hire her every day of the week. I would recommend Sid as a provider for your dogs 100%. It's been a great experience working with her!
