My babies, Penelope and Finnegan, love Vincent! I trust few people with my dogs, but I trust him…read more I've seen other dog walkers with way too many dogs at a time or dog walkers strolling around staring at their phones and paying no attention to the animals they should be watching. Finnegan was a high maintenance, medically difficult, adorable pug. Vincent was very gentle with him in his final days and could help me on a moment's notice. Now that Finn is gone, Vincent has helped Penelope adjust to being an only child and has helped her to socialize with some of the other dogs. She really only liked her brother but I'm grateful that she is learning how to interact with the other dogs in the neighborhood. I highly recommend Vincent to anyone needing dog walking or dog sitting.

Because of his training background, we felt comfortable leaving our girl with him and knew he would be able to handle her when she got anxious. Ultimately, we were able to enjoy our much needed get away to Dana Pt and experience stress-free dining and activities while there. Thank you, Bruce! We will definitely be calling you again!

My husband and I are really busy with work and PBF always accommodates our schedule and do what they can to make sure our needs are addressed. We recently also had a baby in the last year and pbf has helped accommodate us as we move into our next chapter of having kids. Even when we had to go to the hospital when the baby came, the owner helped us schedule the pups walks and transportation to our pet boarding facility. They are simply great and amazing and I never worry about our pups and trust each and everyone of the walkers in my household. I highly recommend them.

Finding reliable reptile care in Orange County is rare, so I'm especially thankful they were able to help. Maria deserves a special shout-out because she handled all the legwork and immediately put me at ease with her reptile experience. From her very first visit, she took care of everything perfectly. I would give her more than five stars if I could! I highly recommend Critter Sitters for reptile pet sitting. We'll be bringing our dog in for pet sitting next time, and I'll definitely be back with another review--but for reptile care, you're absolutely in great hands with Maria. Steve R.
