Lonna and Gerry were absolutely amazing house and pet sitters. They went above and beyond. Kept us updated daily with a photo and recap which was so fun to see. They left the house in fantastic form and we can't wait to have them back again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND and if we could give them 6 stars across the board, we would.

Marnae is amazing! She literally came to the rescue when I needed a “real dog person “ to walk my little girl. Wag was so unreliable and unprofessional, but Marnae was the complete opposite and like a breath of fresh air. Not only does my dog come back satisfied from her walks, but Marnae was able to show me some training techniques that would help me bond with my dog on walks and have a more enjoyable experience walking her. I can truly say that Marnae truly cares about her clients and knows her stuff. From the 1st time I left my dog in her hands, I had no doubts and no worries.
As a dog professional myself, I’m particular about the people who will be caring for my dogs when I need help. This company is impressive! Not only will they walk my pups with the structure that I want for them but they will also do any extras that I need such as put additives in their food if needed, bring in the mail, open or close windows. The gals are well trained, respectful and take the time to build a good relationship with your pets. My dogs love these gals and are really happy to see them when they come over. THESE GUYS ARE WONDERFUL! I highly recommend them!
Pit Stop is an awesome company owned by a reliable and knowledgeable pet owner! Pit Stop has taken care of our two cats in our home via "drop ins" for two extended trips that we have done so far, and we trust them completely to care for properly for our cats. Additionally, they are vigilant and thorough when it comes to checking up on the pets and any dangers or messes in the home while we are out. Definitely recommend!
Marnae Franek and her staff have been taking care of my pets - cats and Greyhounds - for several years. They are professional and very informed on the care of each type of pet. Marnae is responsive and interested in understanding any care issues my pets may have. She and her staff deliver what they promise: they spend time with my pets, make sure they’re fed and have fresh water, and make sure all indoor litter boxes and the outdoor patio are cleaned during each visit. They also send photos of each pet during every visit. Marnae has been walking my Greyhounds and understands their unique needs. I trust her to give my dogs and cats any medicines or other treatments they may need while I’m gone. I heartily recommend Marnae and her Pit Stop Dog Walking and Pet Care team!
I heartily recommend Pit Stop Pet Care. Marnae and her crew are honest, reliable, caring and professional. It’s always hard to leave the pups, and I do not leave them with ANYONE else (the one time I did I regretted it immensely). I appreciate their communication and pictures throughout the visits. My pups are family, and I give them the best of everything - and so they also get the BEST caregivers and sitters too. They care for my dogs as if they were their own! 💜
Pit Stop has been my go-to for several years now—one of our dogs can be reactive in boarding situations, and so Marnae and the Pit Stop crew keep all of us less stressed. I love getting regular updates and pictures, and it’s a great relief having someone so kind, reliable and professional stay overnight. Highly recommend!
Sincere thanks to Marnae for her excellent care of my two dogs. They are always excited to see her and enjoy their walks with her. One of my dogs is a senior with mobility problems and the other is a young male who is reactive to other animals. She is patient and attentive to their individual needs. We have been her customers for many years and she is dependable, professional, trustworthy and everything you would want in someone who cares for your animals. I highly recommend Pit Stop Dog Walking and Pet care for your "fur" babies.
Marnae and her team are the only people I trust with my dogs! They’re so sweet and always caring and I know they truly love my pets and take the same care with them as they would their own! They make me feel comfortable when I do have to leave them or have them come let my dogs out. They always send photos and updates too which is really nice and my dogs are always happy to see them. Thank you Pit Stop for taking the best car of my doggies!
I have been recieving excellent services from Pit Stop for 6 yrs. for my elderly lab mix and now for my young boxer mix with seperation anxiety. Staff members visit my dog at my home weekly for walks and also for feeding and loving when I travel. I can see the happiness in the photos they send from each visit and my neighbors tell me how well the walks go. I would certainly recommed the services of this organization and staff.
Marnae and her team are just the best! I love being able to travel and not worry about my girl. She loves that she can stay home and be the center of attention with friends coming to visit her (and it is an added benefit of having someone in our home checking that the walls are still standing). As Harlee has gotten older, they have been able to adapt to her need and are always responsive on jumping in for last minute walks. Pets can be stressful, but I am so thankful to have Marnae and her team in our court to make it less stressful.
