Nancy is incredibly organized; she assures you that her whole team is credible, talented, caring and accommodating. She's completely understanding when last minute things come up and provides more than enough notice if anything was ever to come up on their end. I'm pretty sure our dog Winston got more excited to see his dog walker, Scott, than he did us at times. Scott was so good to our dog. Every walk Winston got, Scott would leave a detailed note with whatever happened and would call personally if there were any concerns he had. We truly couldn't have asked for me. Bow Wow really was more than a business to us; we truly considered them part of our life and our dogs' as well. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again or recommend them to anybody looking for somebody to care for their pet!

My husband and I used Nancy's services for 1.5 years. Things started off pretty well, she is…read moreorganized and came to meet us with the walker who would be caring for our (at the time) 4-month-old cockapoo, Meli. The 2 stars given are mainly for the walkers and not the owner, Nancy. Our walker was absolutely fantastic and would send us pictures for the first several walks and reply to text messages quickly if we ever had concerns or questions. We stopped services, without another plan in place, after a series of poor management and customer service: Months before a 9-day vacation in June 2018, we secured our walker for pet sitting services. A week before we left, Nancy informed us that the walker would no longer be able to provide the pet sitting services and she had no back up sitter, nor were we aware that there was no back up sitter. She offered to pay for one specific boarder that does not have a website or email. We declined as Meli had never been boarded before and we preferred that she stay at our house or another home to be cared for. We ended up spending twice as much money and an incredible amount of time finding a last-minute sitter through Rover. Nancy did not offer to help pay for that even though she'd offered to pay for another boarder and was not very apologetic about the whole scenario and the inconvenience, stress, and money it cost us. We are asked to provide a two-hour window for Meli's walks. We have a security camera and can see when the walker arrives even when we're at work. One day, our walker came 25 minutes before the window began, meaning Meli was alone without a walk for 8 hours. I asked Nancy about this and requested Meli only be walked within the window we gave. A couple months later, in September 2018, our walker started coming 1.5 hours later than usual, still within the window, but without notice. When I saw he had not arrived when he usually does, I waited 20 minutes then contacted Nancy to verify that Meli was on the schedule for that day. I was almost to the train to go home and walk her myself when I noticed he arrived. Nancy did not get back in touch with us until the next day, stating that she was on an airplane and didn't understand why I was so worried. She waited 24 hours to respond to me and when she did had a tone of annoyance. A couple weeks later, today, I noticed that our walker had not arrived by the end of our walk window. My husband texted him and the walker stated Meli was not on the schedule, then realized he was looking at the schedule for a different day. Mistakes happen and we are not unreasonable people, but a few minutes later Nancy emailed us and said the walker had an "emergency" and was trying to get to Meli soon. She was trying to cover up a simple mistake by misleading us when we already knew the truth and we lost complete trust in her at this point. Her overall communication with us has been rude and with an annoyed tone any time we said/asked something beyond providing our weekly walk needs. We love our dog and want to make sure she's comfortable and cared for when we are not home. We are paying for a service and not asking too much. Nancy lacks compassion, empathy, and understanding for pets & their owners (and I'll bet her walkers/employees, too) and I would strongly advise against using her services. By the way, I have emails to back all of this up.

I am really terrible about asking about a pet sitter last minute and she was always available even on that one occasion I asked only two days before we were scheduled to leave due to some last minute plans.

I am an anxious pet parent and she sent regular photos of my cat to reassure me that my Bug was in good hands. Now, with all the coronavirus craziness, she is still checking in on her pets and making sure everyone is doing okay. Also, it's worth mentioning that her pricing is more than reasonable. Hire her to care for your pet and you won't be disappointed!

Not only does Molly do a great job providing a safe and fun environment for by sweet boy--whether it be during walks, play dates, or daycare--she also works with him on some of his annoying habits (like jumping on people and stealing things) by using lots of positive reinforcement. I am an overprotective dog mom and I am so grateful that I never have to worry about Zuppa's wellbeing when he is in Molly's care. I don't know what we would do without her!

They don't pay attention to the dogs well-being nearly enough, for example we have been leaving our puppy there and have told them that he is having diarrhea but every time we pick him up and ask if his poop was normal they says, "oh yeah, everything was fine" or "I don't know, I didn't work with him" and then when he gets home he continues to have diarrhea. They don't interact with their clients at all, at the end of the day they are just telling you what you need to hear to leave them alone. The only positive thing I can say is that our puppy comes home looking happy and he is tired from playing. Edit: 3 days after posting this review, instead of reaching out to me they called and tried to bully my fiancee into changing it deleting this review.
