Karis and Jethro are a lovely couple. They arrived the day before we went on holiday so that we could show them around. They were very easy to get on with, very pleasant and our cat Tom took a liking to them straight away. It was obvious that they are animal lovers as they approached Tom in a calm manner (he can be shy with strangers). While we were away they sent us updates on Tom with pictures, it was obvious that he was very happy and relaxed in their company. Karis was always very quick in responding to my messages, and I felt that our cat and our home were in excellent hands. We needed a workman to have access to electricity when we were away and they were happy to deal with this. As we are all living with COVID restrictions and uncertainty I asked if Karis and Jethro would be able to leave in the event of us having to return home, for isolation purposes or another lockdown. They said that would be no problem and would be happy to vacate our home if needed. When we returned we found the house very clean and tidy, with some nice thoughtful touches which were very much appreciated. I would recommend Karis and Jethro without any hesitation and would be more than happy to invite them back in the future.
Rachel was wonderful and took fabulous care of our energetic dog! Rachel was timely with responses while coordinating the house sit. She was respectful of our home and gave us updates on her time with our dog. We would recommend Rachel for anyone and would have her come back anytime.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 29.99 per visit, $16/week per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Lost my last dog sitter last minute and called Wagner's where he was accepted immediately. He was well taken care of and was given frequent updates. Very thrilled with the care he received! Highly recommend!
Our dogs have loved it here and we feel secure knowing they're well cared for. Reasonably priced, good location with plenty of clean indoor/outdoor space for the dogs, flexible hours and accommodating with special circumstances.
Wagner’s Kennels is AWESOME!! Dorothy and her husband truly care about your dog as if it was their own. They are honest and trustworthy! They spend time with your dog with long walks and playtime! I have left my dog with them for numerous times in the past four years and have recommended them to several of my friends! Truly satisfied and would highly recommend them!
Wagner's is FANTASTIC!!! Dorothy and her husband really care. Prior to the actual boarding, Dorothy suggested a test-run since this was the first time we were boarding the Chihuahua. My Maisie (retriever mix) is quite the handful, and they were great working with her. They let us board Maisie and Suki (Chihuahua) together over the Memorial Day weekend holiday, and I am amazed at how much service my dogs received for the VERY affordable price. I also greatly appreciate the flexible drop-off and pick-up times.
A trusted friend from work recommended Dorothy and I was very happy with the care my dog, Skipper, was given. She was able to squeeze us in at the end of June and couldn't have been nicer. I had been worried about a number of things, but a visit a week or so before that included a trial run for the afternoon helped put my mind at ease. I know I can trust her care for future visits as well!
I wish that there were more than five stars available in the rating scale, because Wagner's Kennel is a 10+, at least. My collies have stayed at Wagner's twice since they opened, and I can honestly say that if I needed to leave home and couldn't get a spot here, I would either stay home, or take the furkids with me. The facility is spotless - the kennel runs are appropriately sized - the outdoor runs are spacious and safe - but most important to any pet parent is the care the dogs receive. Not only does Dot make meticulous notes regarding my dog's food, medications, personality and special requirements, she truly enjoys her canine guests, and THAT is what allows me to leave my kids without worry. Dot will even send live-stream videos and/or photos of your dog if you ask! My dogs show in Obedience, so the training sessions she offers is an added bonus. Her experience with training and teaching means that you can come home without feeling that you've lost valuable learning time - as a matter of fact, your dog might surprise you with how much they've picked up while you've been away! My dogs walk into Wagner's Kennels as happily as they walk into their own home, and are cheerful, happy and healthy when I pick them up - and that is priceless to me. Wagner's Kennels is truly a home away from home for my collies, and I most enthusiastically recommend them.
Our dog loves it here! He was excited as soon as he realized where we was. Great peace of mind knowing they are happy and well cared for.
I've been going to Wagner's for several years and am always amazed at the quality of care my Tilly receives! They treat all the dogs in their care like family. They have AMAZINGLY reasonable rates and have always been extremely accommodating to my timing needs. Thanks Dorothy!!
Before our dog passed away, we brought her to Wagner Kennels several times. We were so please with the kennel. One time Lucy was the only dog there and she got to stay upstairs in the kitchen with the family dog. I would highly recommend this kennel.
I am pretty sure this place is illegal in so many ways. I would find it hard to believe that the USDA would inspect this and pass it. The kennel is in the basement of a house and then there are kennels outside. There are no beds in the runs for the dogs to lay on. It smells. When I left and came home, my family said I smelled so bad. When I talked with the owner she said she doesn't advertise and that it is just by word of mouth. That sounded weird to me. It made me feel right away like she was hiding something. She had her dogs out in runs outside the whole time I was out there for 2 hours. There was no water for them the whole time and no shelter. They were in runs that were filled with pea gravel. They barked frantically the whole time I was there. She claimed to be a dog trainer as well, so I asked her if she clicker trained the dogs in the kennel to be quiet and treat them, she told me she didn't believe in the clicker. Instead she would rather have her dogs bark and lunge for 2 hours in a kennel setting? Sounds like a great trainer. I told her she didn't have to use a clicker and she could use anything but that she could literally train any dog to be quiet in the kennel and she dismissed me. Yes... Don't believe the certified veterinary technician that went to school and also has taught aninal behavior at college level. She was a very nice lady, but the whole idea was so wrong. $20/night/pet to keep your pet in a dirty, loud, crazy, house... Hmm no thanks. I'll call a pet sitter instead.
We were very pleased with using Terri's Wandering Paws while we were on vacation. The people that came to tend to our dogs loved our pups like their own, and made our dogs very comfortable. One of our dogs is very anxious. However, she was very comfortable and relaxed with anyone that come to our house from Terri's Wandering Paws. We received updates and pictures after each visit. This made it a little easier for a dog mama that missed her pups. I was also able to communicate with the staff when I had a question or needed to tell them something. I will recommend Terri's Wandering Paws to all my family and friends. Definitely a 5/5 service.
All the walkers with Terri’s Wandering Paws are great! They communicate frequently and take wonderful care of my dogs while I’m away. I never have to worry because I know they’re in great hands!
100% recommend Terri's Wandering Paws, and I can't say enough good things about Terri and her team!!! My pets receive excellent care, and she is always very accommodating and flexible with my hectic schedule. I know my pets are well cared for, as they post pictures and provide detailed updates of pets. Terri has always hired a great staff, and several of her team have been with her for many years. Five stars - we are thankful for you and your team, Terri!! 👏👏👏
Terri and her furry loving employees are simply the best! They have been walking my 3 pups for years and always professional to me, while treating my fur babies like their own! I have 3 unique pups with their own quirks and personalities that not just anyone can handle, but I never worry about Terri’s Wandering Paws crew coming up to care for them. I would 5/5 recommend to anyone looking for any time of pet sitting or walking services.
We can’t say enough great things about Terri and her employees. This was the first time we had them come take care of our fur babies while we were away and they made us feel at ease. They are very trustworthy, timely and honest. We loved getting updates after every visit that Courtney sent us. We knew our dogs were in good hands with Courtney. We will definitely be using her service again!
😀I would highly recommend Terris Wandering Paws. She has an excellent team who all took the time to get to know my dog. I am happy that when I am out, or working from home that he can get a walk or some playtime, even if I am too busy. He loves all the team that he has met and is always happy to see them. Can't say thanks enough and what a relief it is to be able to have the support when we need it as a family!
i have a sassy cat and a dog who has pretty extreme anxiety, so leaving them home for someone else to care for made me worry. I never knew for sure if Molly would hide and not get outdoors when she needed to. But not to worry, because there are wonderful people at Terri's Wandering Paws who can charm my dog out of her crate or from behind the couch. They actually liked my pets! TWP is my lifesaver when I need to be away from home and that makes Molly & Mac happy!
I cannot say enough good things about Terri and her crew! We always love the pictures and message updates we receive during their visits. It means so much to us to know our dog is in great hands when we are away.
I have used wandering paws for several years. They are extremely responsible very knowledgeable and truly care about my pups. They’ve helped me with all of my dogs. This includes Lucy, who had cancer and Chloe who had kidney failure. I would not hesitate to give them a call. They’re always there and they’re always available.
Terri and her walkers are simply the best!! My pups can be a bit more difficult than most with their unique personalities, but with Terri’s Wandering Paws I never worry about the care they will receive!
