Adventurers with a love for simple joys!
I was wonderful to work with Trinity leading up to and during the sit. Macy, my dog, looked so happy in the updates Trinity shared during my trip. And she kept the house clean and the plants alive and healthy. Would recommend her to anyone.

Dependable animal lover excited to care for your fur babies and your home.
Terry was great to work with and great at communicating every step of the way. He has the experience to know what questions to ask, and went the extra mile to work with our travel schedule when we were dialing in dates and times. I could tell he was a pro at making our two dogs feel comfortable and well taken-care of. We returned to find two happy dogs and our place just the way we left it - only maybe even a bit cleaner!

A responsible traveler with a great personality who will care for your companion
This was our first time using Zeewoi and Chris was really really great! He was communicative leading up to, during, and after our trip. Leo seemed very well cared for when we returned home, and the house was spotless. We hope Leo gets to hang out with Chris again sometime soon!

Pets + travel + working remotely = amazing memories!
Alex and Lydia were great sitters! They sent pics of our girl Willow having a great time and left our house very tidy, and even did their own laundry. Super easy to communicate with and very understanding when we had a change in plans on our end. We’d love to have them back!

Mature, reliable & responsible. Lovers of all creatures, great and small.
Janet and Gregg looked after our house and pets like they were their own! They left everyone happy and fat, the house was pristine. We would not hesitate to recommend them to you! Thanks to both of you for making this experience so positive!

Kind, Respectful, and Communicative Sitter
We've used Charlotte multiple times now. She is great with our animals and gives them lots of love. Our house is always clean when we get back. We are thankful to have found her.

Providing you peace of mind while pampering your pet is my priority!
Another fantastic experience with Elizabeth! We were on vacation for 12 days and had total peace of mind with Elizabeth looking after our sweet Zoe and the house. She is super self-sufficient and happy to help with garden upkeep and anything else that comes up during a stay. Plus there's nothing better than returning to a well cared for and happy kitty, and a spotless house with linens laundered, trash taken out, and a sweet bouquet to welcome us home! Absolutely looking forward to the next chance to have Elizabeth come and stay. Thank you Elizabeth! 🙏🏼

Complete Peace of Mind While You Travel: Loving Care for Your Pets and Home
Maeve was very communicative and kept us updated on our pups and house during her stay. Prior to her visit, she was very organized with a list of questions so she was well informed before she arrived. The dogs seemed happy and well cared for while we were gone. Recommend her to others.

Responsible, Experienced, and Reliable Professional Couple from Virginia
We are so pleased to have had Jason and Bethany in our home. They are truly animal lovers -- it showed in every communication we had with them. We think Paige and Loki were actually disappointed when we arrived home instead of them. LOL! They also took extra time to carefully manage Paige's food intake. We feed her carefully measured amounts (to maintain her weight) and schedule when she eats so she doesn't throw it all up. Jason and Bethany followed these requests and Paige was happy and healthy because of it. They have been homeowners themselves for years and kept an experienced eye on our home. They even spotted a minor leak from our dishwasher and we appreciate that level of care. We'd give them 6 stars if we could. We hope that Jason and Bethany return to sit for our kitties Paige and Loki. They are welcome anytime.

Solo Senior Pet Lover at your service!
Patrick was an excellent house sitter! I was happy to leave my “kids” in his hands!
Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already. She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it. She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand. She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side. We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of. We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!
Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa! We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best! First, communication was fabulous from the start. They put me at ease before they ever got here. Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures. They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world). They handled her medications with no problem. It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them! I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!
Christina is the best house and pet sitter that we have ever had. She leaves the house immaculate. She is independent, reliable, and totally professional. Communication is excellent. In terms of pet care, Christina is special. I think that she is a dog whisperer. Bridie, our crazy Wheaten, adores her and is sad when she leaves.
I was fortunate to have Lisa as a sitter for my active, 7-year old lab mix (Ozzy) for a week in Bend. Lisa took the time to meet us via Facetime and in person before her stay. It was apparent she wanted to be well-prepared and aware of any special doggie needs he may have, or any help I needed with watering plants or bringing in mail. She took great care of Ozzy while I was away and sent me regular updates and photos of their outdoor adventures. I returned home to a very happy dog and a house exactly as I had left it. I'd welcome Lisa back anytime!
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.

Amy is truly a god sent. When I was told there was no other option but euthanasia for my dog, she welcomed her in to see what she could do with no hesitation. She wanted to see my dog succeed and be better just as much as I did and trained her according to what my dog needed specifically - and even found tracking helps her relax. It made me feel even better that I am chopped liver to my dogs when they are with Amy because they love her so much. Both of my dogs are the happiest they have been in many years because of her. They are able to comfortably be on their places in the house together, and occasionally play with each other outside for the first time in 2 years. My dog used to get scared at the sight of a dog in the distance, now we live in the city and walk on the river walk trail and pass dozens of dogs everyday. I still drive an hour to board my dogs because I know they are safe in her care. Thanks Amy, we couldn’t have gotten where we are without you ! -Jordan
We cannot recommend Fox Hollow & Amy highly enough! We sent our puppy to a 3 week Board & Train when he was 7 months old because like most puppies he was driving us crazy as we felt like he didn't listen or understand any direction or basic manners. My first phone call with Amy impressed me beyond belief as I spoke with other trainers (franchise & private) and could tell her approach was the right fit for our family and what we wanted in our outcomes. Amy picked him up a few weeks later for our scheduled dates and got to know our lifestyle, house, and what we wanted most. We had a list of things but our #1 was recall and our #2 was to get him to stop counter-surfing. Amy sent photos & updates along the way and when he came home he had mastered our complete list. She gave us great instruction on how to make sure we reinforced it and maintained it and has continued to be available for support when we get stuck or feel like he's relapsing. He's a happier dog because he can please us now and we are a much calmer household that doesn't yell or get frustrated with him because we have the tools to tell him what we expect and he has the tools to deliver. The investment is worth every penny!!!!
I CANNOT express how amazing Amy is and the work she does. We have a 3 year old Great Dane who we rescued from a “who-knows” situation. Zeus is dog reactivity and people reactive when he’s inside the home and extremely dog reactive when he’s outside the home. It was to the point where he would see someone pass by the house or a dog would bark and he would explode and jump around and go crazy. Then we had our daughter. This dog would run through the entire house going ballistic every time she would cry or make any noise in general. I lost all hope in him and was ready to rehome him but I let my husband find someone to train him as our last resort. We talked to several trainers throughout the area and Amy was the best person we talked to that we felt comfortable with handling our dog. AN ABSOLUTE MIRACLE WORKER. Zeus has done a complete 180! To the point where I have cried from the videos that we were sent while he was away. He’s still a work in progress but I am beyond thankful for Amy and the work she’s done. It finally feels like we can enjoy our lives and Zeus will have a better quality of life in the long run. Not only that but I don’t live with constant anxiety with waiting for him to have an outburst or for him to freak out when our 2 month old cries. The amount of support she gives is unbelievable as well. I could never recommend her enough! Thank you so much, Amy!
Barbara Love Posting publicly I can’t figure out how to post it- i clicked on the post button and it says I am not signed in??? I signed in through google - I hate technology… Please let me know if this is to long.. this is my first written review 😉 I have a 10 month old Cocker Spaniel that is a BRAT! My puppy, Louie, believed he ruled the house and me!!! Things were of control. I needed help! So I started researching training options. I found Fox Hollow Kennel’s web-sight and they offered in home training. Which is what I thought I needed. I filled out their information form. Amy, the owner, quickly responded by phone and we scheduled an in house meeting the following week. I immediately received a calendar invite. Amy arrived on time! My dog, Louie showed himself right away. During our meeting, Amy throughly explained her training concepts and program while working with Louie. By the end of the hour, my little BRAT was starting to consistently respond to Amy’s directions. She explained I was using to many words which was confusing and frustrating Louie. We decided that a 3 week boarding training program would be good for both Louie and myself - for a reset and fresh restart. While Louie was away I received several email updates and videos! Amy would always responded quickly to any and all my questions. I was so taken back by Louie’s positive growth in such a short time! Louie came home a totally different dog! Amy stayed for two hours making sure I knew how to communicate and work with him. It was very rewarding seeing Louie so calm and responsive to me. Amy’s calm, positive and firm approach is always so respectful of Louie and me. I totally relate to her down to earth and common sense style of training. Louie clearly adores Amy by the way he immediately sits and stares into her eyes during our additional support training lessons. I am so pleased with my experience with Fox Hollow Kennel. Louie is growing into a well behaved young dog and I am becoming a positive trainer/mom❤️
I have used Fox Hollow Kennel for years and have always been impressed with the level of care provided by the staff. These are people who truly love animals and will go to great efforts to accommodate the needs of their clients. I personally drive 2 hours one way so I can use this kennel for my pets and I am happy to continuing to do so. When my anxious dog is with Amy and Jen, she always comes home happy and healthy! Don’t believe fake reviewers who have never used this kennel!!!
I will never take my dog anywhere else! My pup tends to be nervous around new people and has separation anxiety when I'm away. He is happy as a clam when he is with Amy and Jenn! I always hear about how he wants to be cuddled and give kisses to them. He NEVER does that with anyone outside of the family. That's how you know they are the BEST! They will care for your baby like their own!
This is a fabulous Kennel! The owner, Amy, is very knowledgeable about animals. She breeds and trains German Shepard's. I feel completely good about leaving my dogs with her and her family. My Sarplaninac dog was recently spayed. Since she's a livestock guardian dog she is an outside dog. After her surgery the doctor wanted her resting for two weeks. I decided the best way for her to rest, but not have to be crated all day and night, was to go to Fox Hollow. Amy was fantastic with her! She gave her the medicines she needed, watched out for signs of infection. And hand walked her! A lot of kennels won't do that, but Amy went above and beyond the normal duties of a boarding kennel. I've been using her for years now and wouldn't send my dogs any where else. All the dogs go out in the fenced yard every day for exercise and fun. She offers grooming as well. She's a horse woman and I think she boards horses as well! The kennel itself is an older one, but don't let that worry you. It's a safe environment for your four legged friends! My one dog is a chronic run away and he's never gotten loose from here! I really can't say enough about this kennel. I highly recommend it!
Amy and Jenn cared for our pup while we were on vacation, and we were so happy with their service. It was so nice that I could just text them to check in on how our pup was doing, and they would answer right away with updates. They provided quality care, with much attention to detail....we were so grateful for the peace of mind this gave us while we were away. We would highly recommend their service to others. 😊
My husband and I have three dogs. 2 Boston Terriers and 1 Border Collie that thinks she's a Boston Terrier! We have been boarding here for a couple of years now. I always request 1 run, because our dogs are used to sleeping together on trips. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable!!! They care for our pets as though they were their own! We wouldn't board anywhere else! My brother and his wife even boarded their German Shepherds here that were trained for two years in the Czech Republic for 2 years. They trust their care to no one! But upon my recommendation they trusted that they would be well cared for and they were! We have never been disappointed!!! The dogs come home happy, which makes us happy! And they always go to the kennel excited and not scared!!! That proves to me that they are comfortable there! Tails wagging and not tucked between their legs!!! I'm very impressed!!! Thank you for loving our babies as we do! Sincerely, Trina & Wes Haddix
The thought and care given to our fur baby was much appreciated. They knew my dog had a nervous belly and took the time to mix her food and watch to make sure she was comfortable.
Pet Nanny Services is amazing! Stacey has cared for my cat, Kitteran, multiple times over the past few months. Kitteran receives an inhaler twice a day, and she's done a fantastic job earning his trust and managing his medication schedule. I would highly recommend Pet Nanny Services!
Tracie is an experienced pet sitter. You can tell she really knows about animals. Both of my cats are older, and one has chronic kidney disease. I’m very nervous to leave them, even just for a few days. I felt like Tracie would be able to tell if something was wrong with them, which is not easy with cats. Getting daily updates was great, also. It allowed me to enjoy visiting with family and friends without being so preoccupied about whether my cats were really OK at home. Peace of mind is worth so much. Also, her prices are very reasonable. And she does more than just pet sitting or dog walking. The first job Tracie did for me was driving my cats to the vet when I was too sick to leave my home. If you ever find yourself in a bind like that, finding a solution that doesn’t break the bank is such a relief.
Tracie and Pet Nanny Services are excellent. She is knowledgeable and caring for our sweet, shy cat, Sabrina. We are grateful Tracie has cared for Sabrina several times and now our cat is affectionate with Tracie—a true accomplishment. Tracie also sends us much appreciated progress reports and sometimes photos while we are away. This really helps with missing our beloved pet. Tracie does much more to help like getting our mail and also refrigerated an unexpected medicine delivery arriving in the mail. Tracie provides services for dogs and cats. Tracie and Pet Nanny Services go above and beyond other pet sitters!
Tracie has helped us with our cats several times in the past. She and her assistants have been wonderful. They have a true love for animals, are very responsible and go beyond and above. We really appreciate that they take care of little details around our house while we are away and we feel that our cats are cared for very well. Tracie and her team are great and easy to work with and we are looking forward to hiring them again.
Tracie is a very kind and caring person, just the right person you want for your pet! She is dependable and flexible. Her prices are very reasonable. She is highly recommended from Chloe and Stella, 14 year old Minnie Wiener dogs. 🐶 …
I have had the good fortune to be a client of Tracie and Pet Nanny Services for several years. Tracie is unquestionably reliable, responsible, professional, and a wonderful resource for dog behavior and health issues. My dog loves her regular walks and time with Tracie. I highly recommend Pet Nanny Services!
I have been using Pet Nanny Services for the last year and a-half to care for my two Maltese siblings. I have been incredibly happy with their services, but most importantly my canine babies have been too. Tracie and her staff treat them with gentle love and caring, as if they were their own. My Maltese twins are very happy when I come home as a result. The PNS staff members feel like family to us. They have never missed an appointment, and have always been available on short notice. I recommend Pet Nanny Services to anyone in need of care for their beloved pets. JG of Charlottesville, VA.
Tracy Galligher with Pet Nanny Services is amazing. Last year when I had an emergency hospitalization, I called Tracy and she immediately went to check on my two pets. My family lives out of town and if it were not for Tracy and Pet Nanny Services my animals would have been in trouble. Since then she has been just as reliable. Thank you Pet Nanny Services.
My husband and I have used Pet Nanny Services since 2008, and Tracie now pet-sits for our third and fourth dogs! There is no one we trust more with our dogs. Tracie is so dependable, and if needed, she has taken them to the vet when we've been traveling. One time when one of our dogs was wounded by a larger dog, she insisted we take our planned trip, and she took the dog to the vet at least three times during our absence. She is so loving and sincerely cares for the dogs, spending time with them on each visit so they don't get lonely. We and our dogs simply love her and know she'll always be there for us. That's priceless. Beth and Jack Schmid
I've used Pet Nanny Services for years. Tracie and her pet sitters are professional and reliable. Pet Nanny works with your schedule and you can use the services either on a regular or intermittent basis. Tracie's easy to reach by e-mail or phone. I never have to worry about my Boxer when I entrust him to Tracie's care. She's also offered to do other tasks, like bringing in the mail taking in packages and watering plants. Her business is 5 star!
