Kathy has helped us with taking care of our animals at our home while we are away. She has truly…read morebeen a godsend. She is so caring and I know our fur babies (cats, dogs and rabbits), as well as our turtle, fish and even my husband's hawk (he is a falconer) are in excellent hands. She sends pictures of our pets which eases the worry while we are gone. We have had other pet sitters and Kathy has been the absolute best. I can go away without worrying at all. We have some odd things, (feeding the hawk raw quail) that we needed done and she has been a trooper in doing them all and then some, like bringing in the mail and putting away garbage cans from the street and even watering plants. Kathy has also done some in home dog training consults with our dogs and I really like her style of dog training, very practical, respectful, and realistic. She is so knowledgeable and she's such a joy to be around. We are really going to miss her when she moves but are so grateful to have had her in our lives over the years. Cheers to her new adventures.

Tails & Trails has been walking my 2-year-old lab Robert since he was an 8-week old puppy. Courtney…read moreis so fantastic with him and all of her other pups. She is always so flexible with our schedules and is great at communicating any changes in her schedule so we can plan around it, or coordinating one of her great team members (like Frannie!) to come take care of Robert. She also takes such great photos of the dogs; I have no idea how she can get 6 dogs to sit and look at her camera...it's magic! Courtney and her team are truly the best and we trust her completely.

I've used Tails and Trails for a number of years and had nothing but reliable, friendly, and…read moreresponsive service ... in other words, absolutely superb. I'm confident both my dogs (Retrievers) are getting the best attention - second only to my own.

I recently…read more moved to Tampa from NY; I travel a lot for work and used to be able to leave him with family but that is no longer an option now that I have moved. I was so nervous for my first trip leaving him alone, but Carl was so professional, communicative, always responded promptly, gave me an email update every day and followed my instructions perfectly. I could tell from his consultation visit that he is a kind person and really cares about animals. I will definitely use him again and recommend him highly!

In honor of #servicestarshout day here on Yelp, I'd like to say that Debbie of Pasco Professional…read morePet Sitters definitely embodies this hashtag. My family and I recently left to visit Pennsylvania and we needed someone to check in on our two cats. Through some online recommendations my wife found Debbie. We set up an initial appointment where Debbie came to the house, tried to meet the pets (they hid) and took detailed notes on what we wanted her to take care of while we were gone. Debbie didn't just stick to our pets either. She also offered to water plants and bring in our mail. We returned from our vacation to a home with clean litter, well fed and happy cats, organized mail and healthy plants. Affordable, detailed, local. It just doesn't get better than that. Thanks Debbie for being a #servicestar!

We have 3 dogs, German Shepard, French Bulldog and Mix Breed. We went on vacation for 2 weeks and…read morewere pretty anxious about leaving our dogs at home. We both work from home so our dogs are used to having someone with them all the time. Also, we weren't sure how our German Shepard was going to react. Debbie was wonderful, she made our dogs feel safe. She was great with the Shepard and very patient as she got used to Debbie. During our trip, Debbie sent us some pictures of the dogs which was really nice and kept us updated. She also brought in the mail and quite a few packages that were delivered to the house. We will definitely be calling Debbie for all of our future vacations and pet sitting needs. Highly recommend!

My senior dog, Penny, stayed with Jim and Jocelyn for 9 days a week ago and I can't say how…read morewonderful the experience was.
