    Getting Ready for Our walk with Kathy!
    L. M.

    Kathy's dog walking service is a gift from heaven. Kathy's has walked, boarded and cared for our dog since the first week we brought him home. We had tried another local service for the first few days, but were not comfortable with them. We called a local pet store and they said, "Call Kathy Nelson!" The best decision we ever made when it comes to our dog's care was to call Kathy! Her level of care is second to none. Her prices are dead on with what the going rate is, but the level of service and care is worth a lot more than what she charges. Here are her rates: Dog Walks & Playtime. 30 minutes - $17.00 60 minutes - $25.00 Weekend Walks - $5.00 add surcharge Holiday Walks - $10.00 add surcharge Additional Dogs - $3.00 Overnight Pet Sitting Ensuring your pet is safe and secure in their own environment. It includes morning and evening walks, playtime, feeding, and water. $75.00 Pet Sitting Dog - includes walks, playtime, feeding, water Cats - includes love and affection, feeding, water, cleaning litter box We use Kathy's Dog Walking service at least three times a week. I have referred 4 other dogs to her and they are now weekly client's as well. We have also used her boarding services and taxi to the vet. You and your pet are in good hands with Kathy Nelson.

    We have been using Kathy's for a few months and our dogs are so happy! They are reliable, trust worthy and affordable. Definitely recommend.

    Called and left a message more than 2 days ago to inquire as a new client. Nobody returned my call. I guess they don't need new business.

    Found them for their great reviews on Yelp, and they have been just as amazing as the reviews promised.

    I do not know where to start... since joining Melissa's Mutt Hutt earlier last year, Melissa and…read moreher team were very welcoming and made it know they were excited for me to join them. Everyone is very helpful, training was informative, which lead to me never feeling uncomfortable branching on my own. I have had been lucky to work with great clients and their pups. I mainly board dogs in my home, and they are all well trained and have not had any issues. You should feel 100 percent comfortable having MMH take care of any of your pets!

    After working for two years with another dog walking/pet sitting company, we moved out of their…read morenormal area of service, and had to find pet care on short notice. With a shy and anxious dog who is nervous of strangers and sometimes reactive to other dogs on leash, finding a trusted dog walker is no easy task. I found MMH on Yelp and gave them a call. Melissa called me back within 24 hours, and Sarah came out that week to meet me and my dog and assured me that Allison would be able to take care of our pup. As we still had a few walks scheduled with our previous walker, they even coordinated a time for Allison to join our old walker on one of their last visits and help our dog adjust to the change. Allison is amazing, and we are so lucky to have found her! She took the time to get to know and build trust with our dog. Our dog loves her, she sends the best photos and updates after each visit, and she really goes above and beyond to keep us informed of any concerns. We've worked with lots of great dog walkers over the years, but she is the best when it comes to communication. We have regularly scheduled weekly walking, but MMH has also always been able to accommodate our one-off requests. This is one of the benefits of working with a larger company. If we need a one-off walk, and Allison isn't available, MMH has always been able to find someone, and Allison regularly introduces our dog to other walkers so that there are multiple people who can fill in when needed. We've also used MMH for overnight, in-home care, and again, MMH has always been able to accommodate our requests and we've had positive experiences with all the walkers/sitters so far.

Probably should've been concerned about the other dog growling. Apparently growling = okay. Being excited meeting new dogs in a new place = unfit temperament for this business.

Let's be real, she's a young dog in a brand new environment surrounded by unfamiliar dogs. Of course she's going to be excited. That's exactly why people come in for these evaluations in the first place. If your facility isn't equipped to handle high energy or young dogs, that should be clearly stated upfront on your website. Instead, I paid $40 for what felt like a pre judged, rushed dismissal with zero effort to actually assess or work with her to get comfortable. What was more disappointing was the lack of care or professionalism. No one asked about her behavior history - other than does she not play well with dogs, supervisor didn't use her name, and she was immediately taken to the back with a slip lead and returned minutes later with a blanket judgment. There was no constructive feedback, no suggestions for training, and no guidance on how we could improve and come back. For context, she regularly goes to dog parks and plays off leash without any issues. Overall, the experience felt unwelcoming and transactional rather than thoughtful or supportive. Just a heads up for other dog owners, you may not get a fair evaluation or any refund if your dog doesn't fit their expectations. Which should be free, then if they pass you pay.
