    These guys do a fantastic job caring for my pets. Top notch veterinary hospital and worth driving from the next town over for them.

    My neighbor has a 16-year-old dog who experiences both good and bad days. Before leaving for…read morevacation, she responsibly took him to the vet for a check-up and informed them that a dog sitter would be caring for him in her absence. One night, the dog became visibly distressed--shaking and moaning. The sitter did her best to keep him calm, and we called the New Canaan veterinary office first thing the next morning to request an urgent appointment. We explained the situation clearly: the dog was in distress and needed immediate attention. After being placed on hold for five minutes, the response we received was deeply disappointing. We were told, "We're too busy today. The doctor is only working a half day and we have no availability." As a dog owner myself--with three dogs--I'm incredibly grateful that this is not my veterinary provider.

    I have been taking my pets to NC Vet Hospital for more than 40 years. They have always provided my…read morepets with terrific care. They were wonderfully kind when my senior cat became ill with cancer and had to be put to sleep. They even provided me with time to say goodbye in private. When I brought my new puppy to be checked and to get shots, they took time to explain everything I should do and expect. They even called the next day to make sure all was going well. Dr. Schaefler and Dr. Potenza are both wonderful and caring. The front desk staff and assistants are always terrific.

    Leah is easily the best dog walker we've ever had. I struggled a little to type dog walker as she…read morehas become so much more than that to us over these last few months. Our dogs absolutely love Leah, and we enjoy chatting with her every chance we can! We have so much trust in Leah to take care of our pups. It was a challenge when our last walker dropped us, but Leah quickly stepped in and put our minds at ease, speaking to her experiences and quickly getting along with our dogs. We have 2 very high energy pups that need to be watched closely, otherwise they will inevitably get into trouble. We've had cases of our pups getting away, and multiple scheduling issues with our last walker (NOT Leah :) ), but we have not once had an issue since Leah has taken over. With many dog walkers out there, and knowing how much people value their pets, we can not recommend Leah enough. She is super easy to work with, and most importantly, just someone you can trust!

    Leah is the absolute best! I wasn't aware how expensive dog walking/ pet sitting can be, I briefly…read morelooked on Rover and wag for the cheapest sitter and realized that as with most things, you get what you pay for- Enter Leah. PawsBarkPlay was recommended to me by someone who had a particularly difficult rescue dog. Leah took time to try and get to know the dog before she agreed to walk him and she refused to charge the owner (who paid her anyway) for the first few visits because even though she spent more time than normal at the house she wasn't able to get the dog to warm up to her enough to walk him the first couple times. When I heard this story I thought two things: 1. There's no way this person was actually that nice. 2. I have to get her to walk/ sit my dog (Birdy) To be honest, everything seemed strangely too good to be true. Down to the business cards which were nicer that any I've seen (including my own) and the fact that she was licensed and insured?? Like I said, I didn't think the dog walking business was that serious but she's got it all. The card even says that she's pet first aid & cpr certified (I forgot to ask for proof but I believe her). Anyway, when she showed up I found out that she had recently moved here from the south which explained everything, she has not yet been corrupted by our New England brash way of thinking. She was the sweetest person and took to Birdy immediately. I should say that Birdy is very well behaved and not at all aggressive but she's cautious about new people. Birdy ran to her like she was a long lost relative, I was shocked and a little jealous. Leah told me that she just recently started this business but you would never know. Her prices seem middle of the road for what I've seen out there ($25/30 min walk) but her service and level of care is beyond what I expected and make her prices seem cheap. I was surprised to see that she didn't have any reviews but I have a feeling that her clients are trying to keep her a secret like I thought about doing. As a Yelper, though, I felt obligated to leave this review but she absolutely deserves it. Hopefully she'll keep it in mind when she gets busy!
