From day one, Kelly has been warm, attentive, and so communicative -- the photo updates she sends always bring a huge smile to our faces and help us feel connected to our pup even while we're gone. She's extremely responsible, and we feel completely at ease having her in our home and caring for our dog. As someone who is very particular about who we let into our home and trust with our fur baby, I can honestly say Kelly has exceeded every expectation. Knowing we have someone we fully trust makes future travel so much easier. We're so grateful for her! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter -- she's truly the best.

I found them about 10 years ago when I moved back to St Pete. They have been life savers ever since, taking care of two cats. The first cat had health issues and required medication, was so grateful to have a pro like Elizabeth to look after her. The second cat, Bella, is still with me. She is easily stressed and doesn't like change (you may know some people like that. Lol) but when I get home from my travels - Bella is quite relaxed and happy. It has not only been when I've traveled that At Your Bark and Call has helped me, last year I was unexpectedly hospitalized for 6 days. All it took was a text message to Elizabeth and Bella was cared for. By the way - not only does the team help with my pets, they collect my mail and water my plants, too. Truly I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Elizabeth for all your help and care.

We go on vacation every Memorial Day weekend but this year was different, as we had recently adopted a 4 year old Lab mix with anxiety issues around strangers. Sean had been a great asset to me in the three months leading up to vacation with a lot of great knowledge and advice to help our new dog adapt, so of course we contacted him about watching them for the long weekend (we also have an 11 year old Jack Russell who is fine with people and other dogs). We thought it would be best to keep them at our home together and have Sean come over multiple times a day for feedings walks and playtime. His rates were beyond reasonable and I trusted him with our new dog and her special requirements. He came to our home to meet the dogs the week before and asked for a basic routine that we follow and any behavioral and training issues we were working on so he could stick with them. He sent us updates daily as well as some pictures of the dogs hanging out and playing with him. And, though she doesn't normally do this, she even let him put his hand on her by the third day which surprised us greatly. We have another vacation scheduled in September and will 100% be having Sean watch our dogs. Now that his boarding rooms are fully operational we also feel comfortable having that as an option and having the dogs together at his home (it is important to mention that his boarding house is run out of his own residential home. This, to me, ensures that the facilities are clean and we'll kept and that he is always very close by in the event of an emergency or any other issue. It is absolutely a giant slice of peace of mind.) Even with the Lab's anxiety issues I trust him to help her and work with her and keep her happy and healthy in a new environment while we are away.

Her rates are competitive with others. But it is her loving, caring nature for animals and owners that sets her apart from others. She's definitely the best "Critter Sitter"!.
