She has the biggest smile in every video we get of her during her stay! Recently, Isla was diagnosed with a condition that makes her dietary needs more complex. Jon was super understanding and followed her diet to a T. I'm totally at ease leaving Isla with Jon and completely trust him. I highly recommend Sunny pets to every pet parent and Isla can't wait to go back soon!

Until now, we hadn't had any major issues. Today, we had an appointment specifically for the rabies and parvo vaccines. After we got home, our dog vomited five times in a row. We called the clinic, and they had us come back in, where he was given two more injections to address the side effects. While on the way back, I reviewed the invoice and noticed that four vaccines had been administered, not just the two we had scheduled. When I asked why this wasn't communicated, the response was, "Next time, clarify which vaccines you want when you check in." I had already done that. The appointment was booked for two specific vaccines, and I clearly mentioned both at check-in. I was then told they automatically give all due vaccines unless otherwise instructed. If that's their policy, it was never clearly explained to me and I plan to review our past vaccination records to verify the vaccines were actually due. To top it off, we were charged $82 for the extra shots to counter the side effects caused by their lack of communication, bringing the total cost of today's visit to over $300. This visit left us feeling frustrated and taken advantage of. Lack of transparency, poor communication, and a refusal to take ownership of mistakes cost them our trust and our continued business.

Lis is an amazing person who cares for and loves the animals she watches as though they are her own. Our dog adores her, she provides detailed updates with pictures after each visit so we are certain our dog is well and we have zero stress about leaving her! She is also the kindest human being ever :) The pet portal she uses to communicate about each visit is really amazing - you can add details about your pet and vet, pay, request a scheduled walk and receive/send notes and photos. Lis goes above and beyond, sending multiple pictures and writing detailed notes so we are sure that our dog is happy and healthy when we are unable to be with her. This has given us such great peace of mind because no one wants to leave their pet and stress about it! I could go on, but suffice to say that I most definitely recommend Lis - you will not be disappointed with this service read more

Hands down, best decision I've made (in a long time) to have Lis watch my two cats while I went away on a vacation. I usually only ever had family or family friends check up on my cats while I traveled, and as many can sympathize, I always felt a level of anxiety if my cats really were being taken care of. Not only did Lis come and meet my cats the very next day, but she really took her time to get to know Ricky and Lucy, as well as me! On top of the immediate feeling of ease after meeting her, while I was on my vacation, I received 2 sometimes 3 photos of my babies getting lots of love and attention EVERY DAY! I don't travel often, but when I do, I will only ever call Lis read more

My husband and I recently moved from Chicago to San Diego, leaving us without our usual family and friends to care for our pets while we're away. We travel regularly, sometimes on short notice, and we wanted to get established with a reliable, regular sitter. Lis has been amazing!

She lets herself in once a day while we're away and gives our cats food and water, changes the litter and plays with them. She always sends the cutest pictures!

After briefing Vero, she made sure to take her time, treating her gently like she was her own, which I appreciated the most. I also loved watching the Instagram story updates on the page! I asked for a custom "lion cut" and got just what I asked for - so cute! Emma was much more comfortable and I am happy! Definitely recommend!

It was hard for me to bring him to the groomer and leave him for hours. Veronica is sweet with him and he looks just like a puppy. It's so nice to know he's just outside the house and being treated well. Highly recommended!!

Barbara's Pet Care

Thanks so much for taking care of our furry kids twice in the past few months…read more Barbara goes out of her way to care for you little loved ones and she provided services on two occasions for us and our two cats, large dog, and turtle. She fed each pet twice a day and walked the dog twice a day (when requested - our trip schedule was complicated and we also had other help from a friend). She even played with the cats and bought them a toy. I definitely recommend. Her fees are very reasonable for the caring services she provides. Sadly I found Barbara late in our 4 year San Diego move, just before we moved away to Denver. Very sad that it took me so long to find her. She's wonderful, caring and goes out of her way for you and your pets. I very much recommend her if you need pet services while you're out of the house or out of town.

I am neurotic about home security and letting strangers in while we're gone, but this woman proved…read moreto be an exception! I think our dogs were hoping we wouldn't return so they could enjoy her walks and sparkling company every day. Thank you so much , Barbara, you are awesome!
