She was incredibly thorough with the details and went way out of her way to make sure my chickens were safely put up for the night, every night, when our automatic chicken door timer was malfunctioning. I NEVER would have gotten that kind of courtesy if I'd hired some non-professional pet sitter off of Care.com, which I considered. And I'm pretty sure she even hosed the patio of chicken poop (and neatly coiled the hose) even though I didn't ask her to do that. I know EXACTLY who to call next time we have to leave our fur and feather babies! Thanks Loretta!

I don't even know where to begin with how ecstatic I am that I found Loretta! We had a trip come up…read moreearlier this year in May, so I contacted All Creatures Great & Small based on recommendations I saw here on Yelp. I've worked in the pet sitting business myself years back, so when Loretta immediately contacted me and then came by to meet the cats, I was wary to see what we were up against. I shouldn't have had even the slightest concern! Loretta is both warm and personable, asks a ton of questions so she knew what we wanted, and got to know each of our kitties. They took to her right away (even the skittish one!) and I felt comfortable after her first "get to know you" visit. I knew our cats and fish were in excellent hands. She came daily, on schedule, spent time with the cats while we were away. She even tidied up around the house and kept them entertained! We got updates via text how they were doing, and she was always quick to respond if I contacted her. So positive and upbeat. We simply adore her and cannot recommend this service highly enough! I know that from here on out, Loretta will be our go-to if we have to go out of town because she's just fantastic with the animals and an all around fabulous lady. I've never felt *so* comfortable being away from home simply because I knew they were in amazing company. I wish I could give 10 stars, but 5 will have to do. Her prices are insanely reasonable for the amount of care she brings to the job and it was all around the best service for our meows that we could have possibly asked for!

We have had her and her employees watch our cats for the last 11 years. We can go on a relaxing vacation worry free knowing our fuzzy babies and house are in good hands. Michelle, aka Nanny Dolittle, is kind, friendly and professional. She is especially loving to our cats. It is clear upon our return that they have been well loved and cared for during our absence. On occasion she would walk our dog when we were gone for the day skiing. We also felt comfortable with the care she took with medical emergencies and the decisions she made in those events. We love the daily log that shows who came to visit and how the cats were doing. We also like that she sends photos via text to show they are happy. We would highly recommend her for your pet's needs!

She provides the complete package: expertise, talent, and affordability. Her methods are efficient and effective. She will understand your dog's unique strengths and challenges, and customize their training to meet and exceed your expectations.

My wonderful Keely Kat*, for example, is likely going to lose her eyesight, and Nina went above and beyond to prepare us in supporting her future special needs. We're now equipped with a personalized toolbox of tips and tricks to utilize and build upon, setting us up for a lifetime of success. I'm beyond proud and happy that my puppers will be able to do all the good doggo things, even with her eyes closed! *Not an actual cat.

I will forever sing her praises and recommend her to anyone in need. Thank you, Nina, we love and appreciate you so much!!

The first phone call I had with Sarah she answered all of my questions thoroughly and gave me valuable insight into how her set up operates.

She offers a free-range home environment, with the ability to separate dogs by gated room as needed. I've been lucky enough to refer clients to her and hear raving feedback about her care afterwards. Vacation Pet Care offers reliable communication, safe and controlled playtime, and personalized care that goes above and beyond.

I do want to note this aspect as a positive prior to the rest of my review. My hubby and I viewed the rest of the experience as strange and similar to an SNL skit that played out in our own lives. Read on to hear the whole saga... We chose not to move forward with them because of a bizarre experience with them. From the beginning, it was a very strange interaction as they focused exclusively on building a relationship with our dog but not with me. One of their trainers called me on the phone (kind of like a secret agent tasked with a mission) and parked a ways away from my home on an easement that runs on the border of my house. When I met her, like a typical hu-man I was going to say hi to her and started approaching her, but she commanded me to walk away from her and not make any contact. Um, ok...weird but if it helps my anxious pup fine. I walked away from her, and they proceed to follow us, throwing cheese and meat at me and my dog. Um...ok...getting super weird and pretty rude to not introduce yourself and then proceed to throw meat and cheese at me and my dog on my property but I guess you're trying to show everyone who's the alpha. My dog honestly looked really confusedly at them. She didn't bark and happily ate the food but I was pretty uncomfortable. Next I was instructed to follow them. NO, not that close, back up they noted (I was already about 6 feet away). At this point, in the hot son with cheese and meat being thrown at my feet I was done, especially because they walked into my property and home and immediately tried to establish dominance with not just my pup, but me personally. Uh...sorry you're still a guest on my property. They comically threw cheese everywhere on my property, with my dog confused and sometimes not eating it. I watched as a piece slipped through the slats of my porch, likely to mold and cause a bad smell when the sun got to it, because my dog didn't have a chance to (might I add they had fanny packs and were just whipping the food at both of us at this point). We got into the house and it got worse. I thought they were just going to ask us questions and show some helpful tips, but they instead sat down at our table, asking if my cat had an allergy to the food. No...i said...before they immediately started throwing cheese and meat on the ground in our home. I looked in horror, as they hadn't asked about my son who did have a severe (anaphylactic) dairy allergy but they kept on. My dog was pretty good about eating it, but during their convo I watched as small pieces of cheese got stuck to our floor. [My husband reading this review asked me to add this: at one point the cheese got stuck to my toe, with the trainer apologizing, necessitating the words 'the cheese that just bounced off of me? that's ok...just keep going.' which is still a joke in our household to this day'. Making matters worse, their 'interview', while thorough lasted the entire 2 hours. They did not suggest improvements, and did random things like measure pupilary dilation (um, yes my dog is a nervous wreck and you're making the entire household one too!) or where her tail was when it was pretty clear holistically what was going on with her. We finally had to ask them to leave because it was going over time (about 3 hours) and they hadn't shown us any techniques, telling us they were establishing 'rapport'. In the end, we were left cleaning up a sticky cheese floor, with an aversion to dog training, and with a still anxious pup.

Anders completely disregarded all of these instructions. He purposely let both of our dogs loose together in the living room.

Instead he walked both dogs together, we had specifically told him he needs to walk both dogs separately, and he was in and out in 30 minutes. Do not trust these people with your pets.
