What Reviews Say

9 reviews analyzed

This dog care provider enjoys overwhelmingly positive reviews from long-term customers (5-10 years), with consistent praise for dependability, emergency availability, and genuine love for animals. However, one isolated but serious review details catastrophic cat care failures including unsanitary conditions, missed feedings, and property damage, with a defensive response from the provider. The contrast between the 8 glowing reviews and this single devastating experience suggests inconsistency in service quality, particularly for cat care versus dog walking.

Worth noting

Cat left unfed for 24+ hours despite prior commitment

“left the cat for over 24 hours without feeding her when she agreed to be there before 9 showed up at 1 pm”

Unsanitary living conditions - urine damage, mold, litter not cleaned

“didn’t clean the litter causing a huge vet bill - damage to my home - the whole house smelled like urine when we came home - mold on cat throw up in the house - damage to carpet where the cat peed”

Defensive/blaming response to complaint

“When I brought this to her attention she blamed us for being away”

Poor cat care/hygiene in one instance

“didn’t clean the litter causing a huge vet bill - damage to my home - the whole house smelled like urine when we came home”
