They were very responsive and we soon had the person that was going to stay with our dogs come over for a visit. Our dogs loved him and it was clear that he was a dog person and this was not "just a job" for him. He was reliable, great with our dogs and respectful of our home. I cannot recommend Take Paws highly enough, and we will be a client for life.

The Pyr always does but the first two often have to be isolated. At TEP all dogs integrate well with others. They are so excited to go to camp and we feel so grateful to have them all an experience they really enjoy. TEP has great, caring staff and we appreciate the personalized care they receive. We've done a tour and the pace is clean, bright, and safe. The location is convenient for easy fro-off and pick-up. Might be a tad more expensive than other options, but we vale the extra care and stimulation they get - plus images we get d them playing with the other dogs are so heartwarming. Highly recommended!

We first encountered them when we took Finn [6 yo] to a class for Reactive Dogs. We chose this class because our Labs are over the top crazy friendly when meeting people. We met Deb Crawley. Deb applies the Dog Den principles to everything she does - Calm, Non-reactive, rational, and sensible with lots of love. We applied what we learned in class to both dogs and walking them is now so enjoyable. We recently did a one-on-one session with Deb at our home because we wanted to work on some calming behaviors when someone entered our home. We met with Deb in early November and have been applying her methods and advice for the past 6 weeks -- and are seeing great results!! The boys are still crazy Labs but they now 'pause' and consider what we are asking of them when we have someone else in the home. Thank you Deb Crawley. We're going to keep working on this!!

Aunt B's did a great job making sure he was comfortable while also ensuring he got to celebrate the holidays. We got to bring a wrapped present for him to unwrap on Christmas. They let the dogs out like 8 times per day and also offer some great extra amenities such as swimming time or lessons, outside play time in their large fenced in area, and one-on-one play time. Really friendly service and helpful staff. Great facility with well-designed dog cottages to help dogs avoid the stress that can happen in the overcrowded kennels. Wonderful place! Loved the little added touch of a personalized note from each caretaker on what our doodle did during his stay. Five resounding stars for Aunt B's.

It was evident through his interaction with us and our pup that he is passionate about animals and knows what he is doing. Confiding in someone for the care of your home and pet is no easy task..especially when you're a worry worm and overly protective of your pet. Ryan was a great listener and did an excellent job assuring our needs would be met. Wilbur enjoyed his daily walks with both Ryan and Alex. When we arrived home from work, everybody was happy. His company is professional, reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. He has developed a great team and I have no doubts that his business will continue to grow. There's not enough good things I could say about Paw Pals. We were heartbroken to stop services when we decided to move across the country.

After every visit Brittany sends a very thorough message of how each visit went which includes photos/videos.

One of our cats who is very shy and normally hides away from guests, has warmed up to Brittany and makes biscuits on her lap!! I recommend Paw Pals to everyone!!

March 4th Phone call with Dogma team member to answer intake questions and share Nova's personality and traits. At the end of the call I was informed the team will reach out to me. March 14th I have not received communication from Dogma so I reached out to follow up. I was informed I should hear from the hiking team within a week. March 22nd I still have not received communication from Dogma so I reached out to follow up again. March 25th I hear from Lindsey the owner and was informed the next step was to schedule a meet and greet on (4/26/22) to introduce Nova and our home to a team member. April 26th Lindsey cancels our meet and greet. Reason was because they were training new team members at the time and didn't have the capacity to onboard Nova. I was told we can schedule another meet and greet in June / July. No meeting was scheduled at this point and time. August 15th I haven't heard anything from Dogma and reach out to follow up on the status. August 31st I still have not received communication from Dogma. I reached out to follow up again via text message and phone call. September 5th I haven't heard back from Dogma. Needless to say, the company is absolutely horrific at communication. Obviously we will seek other services because the lack of professionalism and communication makes me worried about the care they would provide to my dog.
