We went away 10 nights for our honeymoon and I wouldn’t have felt comfortable leaving our 2 dogs and 1 cat with anyone other than the Life of Riley team! They are the best and the Time to Pet app alleviates so much stress. Thank you everyone!!
Caring and conscious. Holly's team treats my pets as if they were family. I totally recommend Life of Riley for your pet care needs.
Holly's business is awesome. We went on a 10 day honeymoon to Mexico, and Holly and her team took amazing care of our dogs. They provided three updates a day with their pet sitting app and also write a daily report that you can read when you get home from your trip. With the pictures they take daily, you feel like you never left your dogs. Eric, Emily, Holly, her husband, and all their other team members are really friendly and trustworthy people. We will be using them for all our future trips.
They watched our 2 cats for the first time while we were away for a week. I cannot say enough how happy I am with their customer service! We got an email EVERY DAY, Sometimes with pictures of our babies. She didn't hesitate to call us the one time there was a concern. She did a great job and I felt very comfortable having Life Of Riley take care of our cats. We will definitely use their services again!
Fantastic operation! I have nothing but great things to say about Life if Riley Pet Care! Holly, and her team, do a great job. There is an initial pre-screen where they come and meet your dogs, ask questions about their particular habits, etc. Once they begin working with you the entire operation is seamless. Best part: they leave follow up notes for each visit! Extremely professional, price is very reasonable. All three of my dogs love them!
I met Holly, the owner, 6 years ago and she loves her animals and takes care of them very well. She is honest so you don't have to worry about your animals or home. I highly recommend her!
Very happy with Life of Riley’s services! Our dog was well cared for during our vacation by Holly and staff. Loved the text messages we received during our time away and then to come home to daily report cards was a nice surprise. Highly recommend!
I recently used Life of Riley Pet Care as we were out of town for a week during the Thanksgiving holiday. This was the first time ever leaving my fur kids in the hands of someone other than family. I couldn't have been happier with the care they received. I have two dogs, one is very frightened and shy around strange people but did extremely well. We even had a premeet so we could meet the people going to care for them and my dogs could meet them. They were fantastic. They went above and beyond even retrieving my mail. I will definitely use them again in the future!!!
We LOVE Life of Riley! We’ve used them for over four years for walks, visits as well as overnights and just recently took two different weeklong trips which they did overnight care for us. Holly, Courtney, and Emily are all incredible and give extra special care and attention to our animals ❤️ It’s wonderful knowing our fur babies are in great hands when we’re away. I’d highly recommend their services ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Holly Burns was born to take care of animals. She treats our dogs (and turtle) as if they were hers. She has even slept over at our house with our dog when the dog was too timid to go to a shelter. She goes above & beyond what is expected. She always leaves detailed notes of how the animals did, in every way, while we are gone. She has cared for our pets many times and will many more times in the future. We do not worry for one second when they are in her care.
