Was our first time away from our dogs. I was definitely nervous about having someone in my home that i didn't know. After the first meeting, my fears were relieved. Very professional operation! You can tell they love what they do. Kristin was wonderful. The dogs loved her! She was very caring and reliable. Her communication while we were gone was top-notch. I was updated after every visit with text and photos. She left such an impression on my boys. They were waiting by the window for her to come for a few days after we got back. I was able to enjoy my vacation instead of worrying. The boys want to thank Kristin and GPP as well. I will use GPP again.
I feel so comfortable having Tracy care for my pets while I'm away! Incredible service, and I feel they genuinely care about my pets. This is the only in home pet sitting service I will use!
Really thankful to Gentle Pet Protectors. The visits and walks from Kristin, Ruth, & Danie for my dog Ivy have been fantastic every single time!! And the quick communication from Lisa is great. is A weight of my shoulders knowing Ivy is in good hands when I have long work days.
Lisa is a Amazing person. My dog fell in love with her. She has so much patience and let my dog sniff all over so she would be comfortable. She took the time to reassure me all would be okay, show me around, She even asked ahead of time if there was anything special she could do to make my pups stay easier for both of us. If there was 10 stars, I'd have given her 10. I Highly recommend her ( so does my vet, who only had amazing things to say about Lisa) 💞🦴🐕
Lisa and her team have taken care of my cats for well over a decade. The first time I met Lisa she said "I'll take care of your cars as if they were my own" That has been 100% true for anyone on her staff. I NEVER worry when I'm gone because I know my cats are well cared for! I trust Lisa and her staff implicitly and give them an unconditional recommendation.
Absolutely a pleasure to work with! My husband and I work full time jobs and Lisa helped us out when our puppy wasn’t able to go to doggie daycare due to lack of vaccinations. She not only got in contact with us immediately, but scheduled times that would work best for him and his potty breaks. Extremely trustworthy and gives you the ease of mind that your pets are getting taken care of. I am beyond impressed from the communication to the notes and updates left from our sitter Kaley. I will be referring them out to anyone who needs a sitter or dog walker!
Lisa is awesome. We were on the road traveling through Michigan and decided to visit The Henry Ford Museum. Our Toy Poodle is not a service dog and was not allowed to go with us. I reached out to Lisa and she re-arranged her schedule to accommodate us. She was able to keep our Toy Poodle for 2 days, while we enjoyed The Henry Ford Museum and all the extras at The Henry Ford. Thank you Lisa, you are awesome.
We just started using Gentle Pet Protectors and couldn’t be happier. We get communication and pictures with every visit and our dogs look happy and well cared for while we are gone.
Love Lisa and her team, especially Angie and Claudia. My dogs are like my children, and it goes without saying their safety and comfort is my top priority. I have never had a moment of concern when Angie has stayed with them, and Claudia has been very helpful when planning a trip.
We had Maya as our dog walker and she was fabulous! Every dog walk we would be left a detailed note of how the visit went with Murphy. She would feed and water him as we liked and would also bring in our mail for us. If you are looking for a reliable trust worthy dog walker this company is the company that you should hire! Keep up the great work.
