Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden. The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom. Already scheduled a second sit! If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.

Samantha and Scott are great sitters and we enjoyed hearing from them a couple of times while we were away. Our pets were very relaxed and happy too! Very happy to recommend them.
Kate
Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.

Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!

We've had many pet sitters over the years (this is our first time using this app) and Missy is the best sitter we've ever had for our dog and cats. Our pets, particularly our dog, adored her and was really sad to see her go. It is obvious she loves animals and immediately understood the pack dynamics and the pet personalities. She kept the house tidy, litter box clean, and the animals so well loved. Because she was traveling from far away, she stayed with us the night before our trip and the night we came back. It was a pleasure to get to know her. We would welcome her back to our house as a friend or a sitter anytime. Highly recommend!

Melissa did an AWESOME job with our 4 pets! Her personal style and communication via text, video, and pics were stellar and super comforting while we were out of town for 2 weeks. She showed up before the sit to go over instructions for the pet care and was even here when we returned (before she left for her next engagement). You would never know this was her first TH sit. She quickly earned our trust, asked for clarification when needed, and overall is just a GREAT PERSON!! Her kindness showed through in the care of each and every one of our furry babies. She will be a great sitter for others and is looking to travel across and see more of the US while remote working. We have adopted her into our family and she is welcome in our home anytime. Our whole family hopes to see her again-either for a visit and/or for a sit :) Thank you, Thank you, Melissa!!!

5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith

Debra was a Great pet and house sitter !! She communicated well throughout our long trip and sent us frequent pictures of all of our pets. She watered our plants and brought in all the mail. Our home was immaculate when we arrived home and the dogs and cat were super happy !! I would recommend Debra as a wonderful, responsible and reliable pet and house sitter !

If you’re lucky enough to find Anna as your pet sitter you will have peace of mind and well cared for pets whilst you are away and a clean and tidy home on your return. Anna is thoughtful and kind, she arrived the evening before the sit which allowed for some time to hear about her interesting travels and work, kept me updated with fabulous photos and details of the friendship she was making with the cats and even took the trouble to fix a sticky catch on the cat flap. I can recommend her as a sitter without hesitation. Thank you Anna

Gowri was very patient and caring with Irisi who got sick the day before I left. I cannot commend her enough for how she rose to the occasion and took care of my baby. She even pick up meds from the vet. My cat, Squinty, was very comfortable with her to jump in bed and wake her up early in the morning (as he would with me). I am not aware of him doing that to other sitters that have stayed at my place. I would give her 6 stars for Pet care if I can! She updated me with Irisi's condition which really help ease my mind, knowing someone looking after my furry really cared. I would certainly have her back again!

My family have been sending our dogs here ever since I can remember. We have never had an issue and the owners are absolutely amazing and kind. They truly care about the animals in their care and the owners peace of mind.
My dog loves staying at RJ Pets! 🐾 I've taken her other places and when she got home, I could tell they didn't take care of her. Ever since then, she only goes to RJ Pets and have had zero problems. 🐾 Definitely recommend them. 😊 …
They are wonderful! I needed to board my cat at the last minute and they were able to save the day. Prices were reasonable and the staff is lovely and seem to truly enjoy taking care of the animals. My cat was in great shape after 5 days in their care. Two thumbs way up and I would absolutely use them again and highly, highly recommend. Facility was very clean and I was impressed that a place with that many animals didn’t smell like animals at all. Really impressive.
The dogs actually looked happy when I picked them up. Would recommend 👌 …
Have used RJ pets twice and they are a great place to leave your pet
We've been using RJ for years. Every time we leave town and we can't bring our fur babies, we trust that they'll be in good hands and we don't have to worry. Their pricing is competitive and they've almost always been able to squeeze us in even if we forgot to make a reservation. Make sure your pups are vaccinated or you'll be turned away!
We never like to leave our guy behind, but at RJ Pets we know that he is well loved and taken care of!
I have brought my dog there a few times in the past few weeks and they have been very polite and courteous when I go in. They remember my dogs name and allow me to pay when I drop her off so that my other half can just go get her after he is out of work. They seam to really lime there job and the animals they work with. The only down side was that I wanted to put my dog in the monthly payment and they said they couldn't because all the slots are full so now I pay more in 2 weeks then I would to pay for a whole month.
Really like RJs. My boys seemed to like staying there. Will definitely be going back.
My two boys absolutely love going to RJs for their pup-cations when we go away. Always happy when they go and when they come back. I trust the owners with my boys and have recommended this place to all my friends and family.

Marcia is awesome. She is always willing to keep my pup. Even short notice! She takes great care of him. Marcia is flexible with times and allows me to call her prior to our arrival incase I’m unsure of a pickup time. We have utilized her services for both daycare and over night boarding and every-time our dog is well taken care of. Thank you !
We take our Bernese Mountain Dog here whenever we go out of town. We've never had any issues or problems. Marsha is amazing and is always accommodating and nearly always available. Would definitely recommend!!
My dogs are family, so its important that they are taken very good care of when I'm out of town. Marsha at All About Dogs did a great job with them! I will definitely use their services again in the future.
We had our two dogs stay at all about dogs for a total of 9 days while we went on vacation. They charged a very fair rate of just $20/day for the both of our pups. They gave them a bath after their 8th day of being there. When we picked them up our dogs seemed to be very happy and they were super soft and clean. We will definitely use all about dogs when we need our dogs watched in the future.
Take care of my doggie "child" like their own; gave me updates every day, so wouldn't worry. Definitely will take my doggie to 'All About Dogs' again. Marcia did a great job! Thank you so much!
Amazing and very friendly people. Marcia is wonderful. You can call anytime to check on your animal. Had a great first time experience and will be back again. Very budget friendly too!!
Was available last minute when my sister backed out on us. I was able to call and check on my fur baby. Marcia was very nice and helpful
Love them! Our Newfoundland started having seizures whenever he would go places. They made him a special case and we're able to get him groomed because of them! Would recommend them to anyone!
Friendly staff. I had an unscheduled business trip come up and they were available to help me out with little to no advanced planning. And the thing that seals the deal for me: When I went back for a 2nd boarding, my little Leela (corgi) was excited to see the owner again, a whole-body-wag! I highly recommend!
Our Saint Bernard is always well cared-for during his visits and they have never turned us away, even for last-minute bookings. The price and hours are great for us as well.

I love this vet. The doctor I seen last time was very good and explained everything I asked and stayed and talked to me. He definitely loves his job. My doggie loved him as well! The vet/doc name is Nathan Metz, I hope to see him every visit.
We got a new puppy and needed a vet for her exam and shots. Metz Petz was able to get us in quickly. Dr. Nathan was our vet. He was wonderful!! He took his time and answered all of our questions. Our puppy loved him and gave him many kisses. All of the staff were great, friendly and efficient. Prices were very reasonable. 100% recommend Metz Petz!
My cat has not been eating for several days. I called Metz Petz of Shawnee in the afternoon and asked if they were accepting new clients. They were and were able to schedule an early morning appointment for the following day. They also advised that should an emergency happen, to go to the emergency animal hospital. When I arrived at Metz Petz of Shawnee, the staff was very nice. I met Dr. Nathan Metz who was nice and seemed to care about me and my cat. After an exam and some tests, Dr. Metz carefully and fully explained the diagnoses and treatment. When I was presented with the bill, I was pleasantly surprised that the cost was so reasonable. I definitely would recommend Metz Petz of Shawnee. Dr. Matz and staff were friendly, and the place had a good 'feel'.
We were referred by a friend to Metz Petz just a couple of months ago in a fairly emergency situation. I'm simply amazed at the care, compassion and knowledge that exists with this awesome team of doctors and their staff. Not to mention how very thankful. We are so fortunate and blessed to have them. Thank you all for everything.
Metz Petz is so good with Arlo! They are so gentle with his needs and know his personality so well! Love this vet, highly recommend! He’s been going here since he was 13 weeks and now he’s 2 yrs old!
I was so happy Dr Metz was willing to listen to me, and understood my way of wanting to raise our puppy.. The entire staff was super friendly, and I truly feel I have come to the right place. First rate care and pleasant atmosphere 🥰
Dr Nathan is a thoughtful and caring professional. He answers all my questions and I always feel he is giving Charlee the best of care. Everyone in the clinic is doing a great job!!!
We really love Metz Petz! We have 2 dogs and have been seeing Nathan and Melissa for about 5 years now. Our dogs really love both of them and so do we, both are really knowledgeable, they offer a great mix of traditional and homeopathic care, which I love! You can tell they really care about animals, they both know and remember us and our animals every time we come in, there's been times when we've needed extensive treatments Melissa didn't charge for some items that we couldn't afford to make sure they got everything they needed. Our Saint Bernard is really difficult to examine and highly stressed at the vet, Melissa is so gentle and patient with him, she really tries to make the experience as positive as possible. I also love that they personally have Saints, they are very experienced with giant breeds and issues/risks specific to them, which is difficult to find at most vets. Pricing is very reasonable, they always get us in right away if there's an urgent issue, if we can't come in they have us send pics and get advice over the phone, which has been a huge help at times! Everyone in the office is so friendly and does a great job, they just go above and beyond!
Pretty decent vet office. When my cat passed away earlier this month, I called them to ask questions on cremation for him. They were sympathetic and caring, talked me through what needed to be done, pricing, and answered any questions I may have had. This is my only true experience with them, but they seem to be very thorough and upfront. They work with Tails Remembered Cremation Services, which was helpful during a sad time for me. I gave a 4 star simply because that is all I know of their services, I may use them as a vet for the rest of my cats. I appreciate what they do.
I always recommend Metz Petz. And having a former vet at the Shawnee office is the icing on the cake....lol They take great care of my cats and have saved 2 of my cats' lives. They answer all questions. I wouldn't go anywhere else

Absolutely wonderful! Stickory is professional, friendly, reliable and my animals love to see them whenever we use their services. I feel comfortable leaving my animals with them for any length of time. I know they will be taken care of and I will receive daily updates. Awesome!
Phenomenal experience!! Judi not only took good care of Bronco but of his anxious mom too. I will highly recommend this service to everyone.
We moved from NY state back to OH and went from a 2.5 acre property to an apartment. Needless to say, our German Shorthair had some issues getting adjusted. Having Stickory available for daily walks/snacks while we went to work was a blessing. I looked forward to the emailed updates after each visit and had peace of mind knowing that our boy was being well cared for while we were away.
Dave with Stickory Pet Sitting did an excellent job taking care our dog, Buddy. Dave communicated with us daily to let us know how Buddy was doing, and he really took the time to make sure Buddy felt comfortable and loved while we were away. As a courtesy, Dave also got our mail and newspaper, which was very helpful. I highly recommend Stickory Pet Sitting.
Dave did a great job with our dogs when we were out of town for a week. He is so thorough in his preparation and outstanding in delivering exceptional pet care. We got daily multiple updates and wonderful pictures of our pups! We highly recommend Stickory to everyone who would prefer a much less stressful experience for their pets while they are out of town. We will definitely use Stickory in the future. Thanks Dave. Patty and Paul
We've used Stickory a couple of times in the past few months and have quickly become loyal customers! Dave is very organized and professional and treats our pets and home as he would his own. He is a wonderful communicator both when scheduling visits and while we are away. He definitely has a way with animals as he was able to work his magic to buddy up with our super shy kitty! It's so nice to know that our pets are being well tended to while we are away. I've been recommending Stickory to all of my local friends!
I needed a pet sitter on short notice due to a family emergency and unavailability of other options for pet care. Within three days Stickory completed the Meet and Greet and started their services when I requested them. They took excellent care of my two dogs, one of whom is a senior dog. In addition, Dave helped with things not related to pet care. In the future I will use their services again instead of boarding the dogs at the kennel we used previously. I highly recommend Stickory!
My cat, Selene, was very happy, healthy, and content when we arrived home from our trip thanks to Stickory. Our mail was on the counter. It was such a relief to know that someone was watching our house and our pet. I highly recommend Stickory.
Dave took GREAT care of our 2 “babies” during our vacation. In addition to attending to our dogs he made sure all was well at our house each day. Loved the updates and photos!! Super service! Highly recommend Stickory!!
Stickory provides a huge relief of mind when you need in-home pet care assistance. Dave & his team are reliable, trustworthy, & excellent with pets! *Still holds true 3 years later! Knowing our pets & home are being cared for makes our time away worry free. Thank you!
