    This boy's going to have a lot more fun and freedom, thanks to Jen.

    10,000 stars. Jen showed me how to stop a problem behavior which is going to mean a big improvement in my and my dog's life. If I had come to her first, I probably could have saved enough money for a nice trip to Hawaii, not to mention a lot of stress! I showed up with an adolescent male working-line german shepherd, sometimes bratty and often overexcited, who had already had a lot of training (i.e. the easy stuff was already done). He was well-behaved in most situations, but when we were out and about with a group of people, he had the tendency to throw a SCREECHING temper tantrum that could be heard for miles any time he thought the group might leave him. Distressing, embarrassing, and no fun for anyone! Jen showed me that the techniques I had learned with other trainers in this situation were just nagging him and stirring him up more. She showed me how to communicate with my dog in a way that is meaningful to him, even in situations where he is stressed, and bring him back into a calm state of mind. Well, this morning we went on a group training walk at Town Lake. I've attempted to go on these group walks 4 or 5 times before and either couldn't complete the walk, or my dog would be yodeling loudly almost the entire time. This morning, after only a few lessons with Jen--we finished the whole walk in a nice heel with barely a peep out of him! I would have been thrilled with just that, but then Jen suggested we reward him with a swim at Auditorium Shores. My dog did great, came when called even surrounded by other dogs. I would never have had the confidence to take him there and trust him off-leash! I've met a lot of dog trainers in the course of raising this dog, and I can tell you that some of them are burned out on their jobs, some have trouble coming up with a concrete plan to fix your problem, and some are afraid to tell you what you *really* need to do, but might not want to hear. Bottom line, Jen is personable and nice to work with, a problem-solver, and she knows what she's talking about. I highly recommend going to her for a consultation, whether you have a dog that's completely unmanageable, or one that's mostly good but you'd like to be able to go on more fun adventures and give them more freedom.

    Jenn is an amazing trainer. Not just for my dog Austin but for me as well as to how to keep up with his training and more insight into his mind. Austin was the type of dog that would never listen and bolt out the door first chance he got, taking him on leashed walks or the dog park was a little troublesome. All that changed when I brought Austin to Lucky Star in late August. It's been 4 months since and he is still as obedient and well behaved as the day I picked him up. And receiving pictures of him through out the training felt like getting letters from a kid at camp. If could give her more stars I would.

    Jennifer came highly recommended to me by several fellow neighbors when I desperately needed help with a foster Shepard that had aggression and other behavioral issues. Thank God I took their advice. I cannot speak highly enough about Jennifer as a person, let alone her ability to read, understand, and communicate with an animal. It's truly a God given gift. I gave her virtually zero information about this dog, yet She spotted several things within two minutes of meeting the dog that were scary accurate. I left him with her for 3 weeks and picked up a totally different dog. Unbelievable! Her ability (and patience) to train me how to reinforce it all may have been her hardest part :) With Jennifer's help I actually ended up adopting the Shepard and he is the best dog I've ever had. He goes EVERYWHERE with me and is happy, balanced, confident and obedient. I know I have a leash, somewhere... haven't used it in so long I can't remember where it is. Just thought the Neihbor hood should know. THANK YOU AGAIN!! ​

    Waiting for permission to get the toy. Such patience!

    See all

    We have used Cedar Park Pet Sitting Services (CPPSS) twice - each time for extended trips. Melissa…read moreis amazing...and she has a wonderful team of people who truly care about animals. Reason for this review: There's obviously a lot of trust involved in letting people take care of your pets and access your home. We have 100% confidence in Melissa and her team and want to share our experience because - when we were looking for long-term pet sitting - we didn't have any recommendations to help us. Five-star details: 1. Outstanding Communications. Melissa is always available, including by phone, text, and email. She does what she says she is going to do. We've spoken on the phone & Melissa has a great app which gives you updates and photos of your pet! 2. Genuine Caring. On our most recent trip, the weather got cold. Melissa's team members worked with us to turn on our well heater, ensure our pup was kept warm and cozy, and gave us detailed updates and photos. 3. Going Above & Beyond. Melissa called me about the cold weather to alert us in case we didn't know it was going to be below freezing and to ensure our pet was fully taken care of. Her team actually plays with your pet, spends real quality time, and ensures your pet feels loved. They brought our dog extra treats which was incredibly thoughtful because our dog is a senior citizen - and they actually know about dogs so they brought treats that are great for his health as well as being yummy!

I like that they have a GPS tracker so you can see what time they came and left. Sometimes they even send a picture of your pet, which definitely brightened up my day at work. I'm sure this service has saved me from a lot of poop and pee on the floor. It was easier to focus at work knowing I wouldn't come home to a mess or feel a lingering guilt about them being alone for 9+ hours a day. I wouldn't hesitate to use Chico and Chums again.

Allison and I attended the same college for the same degree, so we knew each other back in the day. We ran in similar circles. But this was 20 years ago. We hadn't spoken since college. I ended up moving to Austin a year ago for a job which required A LOT of travel. I saw a Facebook post that Allison had a pet sitting business. I contacted her because I felt like I was abusing all my friendships by asking them to take care of my cat while I traveled. Allison and I had a quick and energetic catch-up on the phone and scheduled a consultation. Allison and her partner came over to my house, and met my cat, Dewey. They quickly bonded. What surprised me the most was how professional this business is. Allison had a bunch of paperwork to go over with me. It was a legit operation. They have a website with a login where I can schedule services and pay my invoices. This has become one of the most useful aspects for using Chico and Chums. I can schedule a service on my portal and know that everything will be taken care of. A few months ago Dewey had some bladder problems and was on medicine. I had to go out of town for work and was terrified to leave him. Chico and Chums took great care of Dewey, and gave him his medicine, and gave me detailed updates. I was still a bit worried, so I asked for Dewey to be taken to the vet to make sure he was still okay. C&C was able to interact with my vet on my behalf and it really was a relief to know Dewey was in good hands. Now when i have to go out of town, I just immediately schedule service with Chico and Chums. I stopped asking my friends to help out because, honestly, you get what you pay for. The ease of scheduling and peace of mind that comes from using Chico and Chums is worth every bit of money I pay them. This has eased my stress and guilt about leaving my cat while I have to travel. I'm so thankful that I found a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. I know Allison personally and can vouch for her character, and she will love your pet like it's her own. Thanks Chico & Chums. You're the best!

We love the convenient web site which lets us put in our reservations well in advance, too. The prices are very competitive with other services we looked at.
