Let's face it! Our dogs are our babies. I stress out when I'm not home to take care of my pup's needs and it's a bit scary to let someone have access to your baby let alone home! I not only use Shaley, I've seen her in action which WHY I switched to Scratch N' Sniff. I had a local dog walker I was already using but one day I was driving past her walking a dog and thought "that dog is so cute!" a few days later I happened upon her walking a different dog. She was hopping around with him giggling and playing with the little guy! She was easy to engage in conversation and let me know she was a dog walker/sitter and with no pressure- gave me her info. I wouldn't trust my girl with anyone else from that day on! It's good to know that not only the basics are being met (potty), she is also getting love and playfulness when I'm not around! Thank you, Shaley! HIGHLY recommend Scratch N' Sniff! read more

Shaley and her crew at Scratch n' Sniff Pet Care have been walking my Norwich terrier for 6 years - since she was a puppy, and I have always felt that they care for her just as I care for her myself. What matters to me is the sense that the people taking care of my dog truly love animals and are kind and gentle with my dog and Scratch n Sniff meets this requirement 100%. They leave notes every single visit which let me know how my dog is doing, whether she did her business and if she's had a treat. They are very flexible and have been great with me and my busy professional schedule which often requires adjustments to the dog walking schedule. The best test is how happy my dog is - they have been a great partner to me in the raising of my sweet doggie. I love Scratch n' Sniff! read more

I highly recommend Scratch N' Sniff Pet Care. Shaley has been walking our dog and house-sitting for us for 6 years now. She is extremely reliable and very accommodating. Our dog is a german shepherd mix that cannot be around other dogs, so she is always careful to avoid other dogs while on walks. Shaley takes good care of our dog and gives him lots of love and attention. We know he is in good hands whenever we go out of town. Recently, our dog had surgery on his leg. Shaley has checked in several times to find out how he is faring and to ask if she could do anything to help. Her biggest fan is our dog, who is always very excited to see her! read more

Amazing pet walkers and sitters! First Shaley walked our St. Bernard mix, Sasquatch, as a puppy to help socialize him, but now we trust her and her team to walk him daily and house sit for him and our cats when we're out of town. I've emailed Shaley last minute to get extra walks when I'm sick -- no problem! And the same when I cancel, even last minute, they don't even charge! They were great with recommending vets, toys, even new dog harnesses since Squatch will haul even very strong people after squirrels. I recommend Scratch n' Sniff to all my friends. So relived to find someone who can handle a big dog! read more

Scratch N' Sniff Pet Care is the best. We first started using it when we had three dogs, two of whom had major medical issues that required an Excel spreadsheet for medications, and one of whom needed help maneuvering stairs. Shaley didn't bat an eye and took them on. They loved her, and we could travel without pet worries. We now have two greyhounds, and they also love Shaley and her staff. When our plane takes off, we are without worry that the hounds will miss us. Shaley loves animals, and they know it...so they love her. Most highly recommend Scratch N' Sniff for worry free pet care. read more

We cannot say enough about Shaley and Scratch n Sniff! Shaley starting taking care of our dog almost 9 years ago, and there is no one we trust more. Her effusive love for animals and conscientious care (always a handwritten note at the end of a walk) have led to many house/pet sitting weekends/vacations and regular walks. Our dog just about exploded when he saw her come up the driveway! Shaley also has excellent judgment in crisis (neighbor's home break-in), acts fast and keeps your home and puppy safe. Her team is flexible and willing to help on short notice. Scratch n Sniff is the real deal! read more

Love Love my Scratch n' Sniff dog walking service and owner Shaley!! More importantly my dogs love her. 4 of them to be exact, a frenchie, schnorkie, Yorkie and 2lb yorkie-Poo. Ridiculous I know and they are tiny but a whole heck of a lot of trouble so I only trust Scratch n' Sniff when it comes to taking care of my dog children. They get lots of attention, walks, rain or shine, treats when their walks are done and a daily note on how their day was. It's awesome to have someone love my animals as much as I do. We've been using her for years and wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommend!! read more

We have a lot of schedule changes and sometimes very last minute requests and Scratch N' Sniff is always accommodating. Your mind will be at ease that your pet is in trusting, capable, loving hands in your absence. read more

We have been using Scratch N' Sniff since we got our first puppy 4 years ago - they now take care of both of our dogs. We use them for daily walks and we also highly recommend them for overnight stays if you're traveling - we have done that on several occasions. If the pups are acting strange or differently we hear from Shaley right away which is always appreciated. Shaley and team are awesome and the dogs love them! read more

Shaley and her Scratch N' Sniff team are the best. We have been using their services since 2012 and are so grateful for the great love and care she gives our dogs. They love, love, love Shaley. Most importantly, we know and trust our dogs are going to be loved on and in the best of care when we go out of town - peace of mind for us two-legged people is critical.

Shaley has been walking my Westies for over five years. I can see that she loves them and I never worry when they're with her. She's a very caring person and was so sweet to my little 15 year old Lucy who recently passed away. I can't tell you how comforting it is to have someone caring for your beloved pets that you can trust completely. As a happy side note, she has also become a good friend. read more

Shaley is not only an exceptional dog walker, house sitter, and all around pet care giver, but also an exceptional human being. The same love and attention I see her give her own pooch is magnified ten fold on all the creatures she comes into contact with on a daily basis. Use Scratch n' Sniff for all your pet needs. You'll be so thankful you did. read more

Shaley (and her peeps) have been walking Sophie the Skye Terrier for two years now and I couldn't recommend them more.... I have a very erratic work schedule and Shaley accommodates that flawlessly, even when I change the walking schedule last minute. My daughter tells Sophie, "Don't worry Soph, we are leaving but your Shaley is coming today!" read more

Shaley & Co. have been caring for our dogs and cat for nearly 8 years now. She was incredibly patient with our (now deceased) dog who did not like strangers and required some time to get to know her. In the end, Shaley was one of the few non-family members that he trusted. We trust Shaley in our house and with our animals when we are away. read more
