This is the first time we ever left our dog, Jäger in the hands of a dog sitter. He played really well with the other canines and he was absolutely pooped by the time he got in the car. I don't think he realized how tired he was. He went on a beach adventure and Heather took some nice shots!

Dana and Nicole of Love of the Pup left Berkeley pursue their dream of establishing a comprehensive…read moredog service surrounded by land and woods. They chose to settle in Asheville, NC; our loss is Asheville's dog loving community's gain. Both Dana and Nicole bring their special gifts- their love of dogs, and their skills in understanding and caring for dogs- to their dog walking groups, agility training and boarding. They are excellent "pack" leaders, and work to integrate the different dog personalities during their dog walks. They have been especially good for our shy dog Farrah. With time Farrah became an eager participant in her walks with them. She even learned to play ball. Dana and Nicole's treatment of Farrah has been especially comforting to us since in the past Farrah had suffered a life threatening, 3 dog attack, when a previous caretaker became careless. We can't give them enough stars. Linda and Carlos Russo Castellanos

I can not say enough about how incredible Dana and Nicole have been with our three pups (and…read moresquatter cat). My father passed away suddenly and on top of experiencing crushing grief, we suddenly had to make last minute plans for someone to care for our dogs who could not fly out of town with us. We were completely stressed and began calling pet sitters. Dana and Nicole were able to watch our pups last minute, over the weekend. They were so kind and came in advance to meet my fiancé and the animals. They walked our dogs twice daily and sent us the sweetest photos during each visit via text. Some happy photos of our dogs were so welcome during this very sad time. Our dogs adored them and you can tell that Dana and Nicole truly love what they do. They will be our regular sitters in the future and we feel so grateful to have found them.

We came to Zoe after working with two other trainers and feeling very defeated. During our very first session Zoe had Bailee laying down comfortably on a leash next to another dog! It wasn't long before Bailee was able to play off leash with other dogs in Zoe's pack. After over a year of her having no dog to dog contact, this nearly brought me to tears. We have learned so much from Zoe about general dog behavior, but most importantly we've learned much more about Bailee and how we can adjust our behaviors to best meet her needs. Zoe is as good at training humans as she is at training dogs! Training can be a very long process, and it has its ups and downs. Zoe is there through it all with kindness, empathy, and support. She is so knowledgeable, very communicative, and you always feel like you are her most important client. Although we still have work to do, Bailee is now enjoying "adventures" with Zoe's dog pack & we know she is in the very best hands. I always look forward to training days with Zoe, we are so lucky to have her in our lives!

After an initial email contact to them, the turn around time to learn more about my cat and the services that they provided. They both came over for a consult and to meet my cat and to learn about how I usually take care of him; and really understanding the best ways to play with him, love on him, and really ultimately keep him happy. The care and joy they have from caring for animals is so radiant and it is evident that they are in love with their jobs! Amazing updates when they would visit my cat and even let me know little things that they noticed around the house that they could take care of in a matter of seconds. 5/5, 10/10, Jenny and Aych are the best and I have found my pet sitters in Asheville!

I was worried about letting a stranger come into our house, but from the moment we spoke it never felt that way. She came over for a free consultation, so she could meet Willow and we could meet her. They were both taken with each other right away and she was very gentle and patient with Willow (even though she was a bit excited to meet a new person). Hope has been an absolute dream to work with. Although my boyfriend's schedule is stable, mine sometimes has a few changes that pop up. Hope is always very quick to respond to my walking requests and very flexible. She always leaves me a detailed message about Willow's walks, along with pictures! And I also want to add that getting used to owning a 45 pound dog who came from questionable circumstances was a little bit of a challenge at first. Hope gave me great advice along the way and encouraged me to have patience as we both settled in with each other. Hope offers walks, outings, dog sitting and more for a very reasonable price. She is very knowledgeable and sweet, and if you're looking for someone to take care of your fur baby with as much love and attention as you would, look no further. Hope has got you covered. :)
