    Kitties have never seen such a fresh litter box before!
    Amanda S.

    Sofia and company are so awesome! I've used their services a few times to check in on my cats when we've been away. She and her team are very organized and thorough. We set up an initial zoom meeting so I can show her the set up and the food. Her communication is impeccable. Every day she sends me an update and photos of the cats. It's such a relief to know my kitties are in safe, caring hands. Honestly, when we returned home from our last trip, my cats looked a bit disappointed to see me. I'm going to have to step up my game to keep them satisfied to Sofia's standards!

    I am very grateful to have found Barks and Recreation on Yelp. My schedule is very busy, very last minute with appointments and always had a hard time leaving my dog alone for a long period of time or had to find someone to help last minute. Sofia made the process very easy for me! She is very professional and reliable and because of her I have peace of mind that my pet is being walked and loved everyday. Thank you Sofia, Doyle adores you so much. We appreciate you. Highly recommend Barks and Recreation, best decision I made for my pet Doyle.

    Even our oldest got in on the fun!

    Our three cats absolutely adore Sofia! We specifically sought out a sitter that would work out the kitten energy of our two younger cats, and our daily photo updates didn't disappoint. It's always tough to leave your pets, but such a pleasure to come home to happy cats and clean boxes. We've referred multiple friends based on our experiences, and I think our cats might even look forward to our next vacation

    My lil' buddy after his walk ;) thanks you guys he's so happy

    Great service! I work a lot and my buddy needs a little exercise. I am so happy that they can come out to take my Flapjack out to get some air and walkies. Thanks again you guys!!

    Happiest boy ever!

    Oberon is the luckiest happiest boy when he is spending time with his hooman girlfriend!

    I can't say enough about how wonderful Sam and Sofia are! My senior dog stays young walking and playing on his daily adventures with Sam. I've seen the way Rufus gets excited when he sees Sam coming. I work long hours, and it's a blessing to know Rufus is in safe and caring hands.

    See all

    Valley Pet Sitting was incredible to my cat Archer. The website and client portal was very easy to…read moreuse. The sitters who watched my cat took detailed notes and lots of photos, there was great detail in the reports. The sitters followed my instructions to a tee. We had an issue with my lockbox but they were so gracious and kind as we worked through it together. They spoiled him in his last days. On the final day it was reported my kitty had thrown up. When I got home he had not improved and I brought him to the vet. Unfortunately, his cancer had spread and I had to say goodbye. This had nothing to do with the care VPS gave Archer. In fact, I think the care they gave him helped him wait for me. When I am ready for a furry friend again, I will be using this company and will recommend them to all my friends.

I panicked. I kept thinking I made the wrong decision because I had several business trips planned, and several days at work where I just couldn't be at home to let him out for a potty break and keep consistency with his time to play, rest, and potty train. I heard about Valley Pet Sitting years ago when I had my first precious boy, but although I called them, it turned out I didn't need them because I had family that could pitch in when I was away. They literally saved my life with my new puppy. They come to the house and give me a play-by-play of everything they did with my puppy (including taking pictures and videos of him playing in the backyard with them) on their app. They also use a Gio tag so you can see where they are when you pooch goes for a walk or just plays in the backyard. The sitters are kind, knowledgeable, and thorough. They asked me every detail about how I take care of him and what's important to me in my home to make sure they don't leave anything disturbed. They even called to make sure that it was OK for him to be on the couch when he made a decision to take a nap during a visit. They are exceedingly responsive and reasonably price for the quality of care and peace of mind I get from their support. I love this company and will certainly be recommending them to friends and family in need of Pet Sitting.

    Amazing folks! I highly recommend this business. I was fortunate to be paired with a dog walker…read morewho is not only fabulous and dependable but understands my rescue pups breed, the Belgian Malinois. Because of my dog's breed, and bad behaviors she picked up before I rescued her, I was calling neighbors and looking on yelp because I needed a good dog walker that understands this breed and the importance of control while in public. After months of private training sessions and pack training, my pup is still a work in progress but my walker is reinforcing the commands as my dog is constantly learning how to behave proper in a social setting. More recently, my normal dog sitter canceled at the last minute and my pup's regular walker, Sonia, stepped up to the plate and salvaged my out of town travel trip. Most importantly I knew my Maligator was in good hands as she cries with excitement every time she sees Sonia coming. I cant say enough good things about this company to be able to drop down and make the perfect fit for my fur baby and my peace of mind. And if you are lucky, you will be paired with an amazing dog walker like I was. It makes all the difference to have this type of support and peace of mind.

They get the most amazing shots! And they take amazing care of our pups. We've had older dogs with health needs and a young puppy with boundless energy and their care, attention and understanding of them all has far exceeded any expectations we had. Do not hesitate to reach out to them!
