It was a pleasure to have Cindy care for my cat Stella while I was away on an unexpected last-minute trip. Cindy sent frequent updates and photos, which provided a great comfort to me since I had only been home from a long trip 3 days before suddenly having to leave again. Stella seemed quite comfortable with Cindy's company! I returned home to a relaxed kitty and tidy apartment. Thank you, Cindy!

Hi! I am Olivia, and my partner's name is Belrie. We look forward to meeting you
I am so fortunate because I had to cancel this sit at the last moment and Olivia and Belrie were extremely understanding. All our communications leading up to the sit were phenomenal, and I can't wait to have them stay with Pearl soon.

Caring, responsible and reliable house and pet sitters since Nov 2020
Once again, Todd and Janis were wonderful sitters. They were easy to communicate with, sent adorable photos, and took great care of our home.

Traveling professional with a love for new experiences!
Sharon was just a wonderful sitter. She has an engaging, positive personality and is full of energy. We were happy with the updates and photos of 2 content Goldens, whether on a trail or chilling by her feet. It is so wonderful to go away knowing your fur babies are loved and cared for in their own home. Will need to come up with a trip so we can invite this special lady back.

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!

I’m either fighting crime or with animals in my downtime <3
We loved having Duha sit for us. Communication was excellent and she needed little guidance after the initial walk-through. Both cats took to her immediately and really missed her when we returned. Duha even navigated some contract work outside the house when workers that we had been waiting on showed up unexpectedly. All in all, we had a great experience and would love to have Duha back any time.

Warm, responsible sitter. Equally a dog/cat and indoor/outdoor person.
Amara is so friendly to humans and dogs alike. It is clear she loves hanging with dogs and knows how to take care of them. She did a great job with my large dog for a week, sent regular updates and communicated consistently. She also treated the house well and left the place very clean. I hope to have her back soon, as does my pup!

Olive can be a bit shy with some new people but April quickly won her love. Can’t thank April enough for her care of Olive and our home. Great communication, left our place clean and tidy with a very happy pup. Would love to have her again anytime. Thank you, April!

What a great experience we had with Lisa. She was so good with Cella. She was very tolerant of Cella's early rising. She's a tiny little thing, but has a big personality and knows what she wants. Lisa was so good at reading her needs. We were able to have a zoom interview with Lisa before we confirmed the sit. She stayed in touch with us daily and kept us updated on how things were going. When we arrived home, Lisa had washed all of the bedding and towels. She vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned the kitchen and bathroom. We couldn't be more pleased with Lisa as our sitter for Cella. We hope we'll be able to have her again. She was awesome.

Reliable and trustworthy pet lovers
Abby and Matt were so easy to work with and we immediately felt comfortable with them in our home and with our beloved fur babies. They were communicative and clear leading up to the visit. They stopped by our place the evening before the sit started to meet our pets and get the lay of the land. During the visit, they sent just the right amount of updates and photos to give us peace of mind. We returned to a clean home and happy pets and plants. Abby even agreed to change my hummingbird food a couple of times to keep our feathered friends happy and safe. I’d recommend them for anyone looking for friendly, responsible pet sitters.
Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend
Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Janet and Bob were great to our pups and our home! They were our first sitters so we weren’t really sure what we were getting into, but they made it an awesome experience! They are coming back to stay with our dogs again in August. Definitely trust them with your fur babies!! 🐾🐶
Jo & David were absolutely amazing sitters for our house and dog Rosie while we were out of town for 2 1/2 weeks. They are the best! Jo was super communicative and responsive at all times. She and David bonded with our dog, who grew very attached to them. They left our house super clean (and there were even chocolate chip cookies for us on our return)! Most of all, they are just super nice people and very easy to work with. Anyone is lucky to have JoAnna & David housesit for them.
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)! She was responsible, self sufficient and very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dog ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip. She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away. She was extremely clean and followed our household routine. And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe! Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met. I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!
Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
Alia is awesome and we have used her several times. She is a 5 star rated sitter every time. The dogs are happy and the house is perfect when we get home. She even cooked dinner for our arrival home because we came home late. Highly recommend Alia!!
I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals. My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.

Jen is great. She's kind and funny, professional, responds quickly, the cats loved her (well, one did and the other one was completely unimpressed, but that's approval in her case) and we received pictures of the cats over the time we were gone that made us laugh (she nailed their personalities in the pictures) and reassured us that the cats were receiving excellent care while we were away. On our first meeting she made a ton of notes and the next time we asked her to care for our dummies, we didn't have to leave a care note or remind her about the routine as she'd taken such thorough notes about our cats and their care the first time. We highly recommend Jen to anyone who needs pet care.
I am very impressed with Jen's Home and Pet Care services. I recently took a much needed trip away and left my 4 dachshunds in her care. She was very pleasant to speak to and enthusiastic about this huge undertaking. Jen offered references with glowing reviews. My pups were extremely calm when I came home and I can't tell you how appreciative I am to have her take care of them. Jen is such a blessing.
Jen quickly won over our rescue who now looks forward to her daily visits! She has been super responsive and flexible which is exactly what we needed after an autoimmune diagnosis prevented him from attending his usual daycare. He now happily takes her for long meandering walks and she indulges him- what more could a pet parent want? Highly recommend.
Jen is a wonderful house-sitter, pet-sitter, and daily dog-walker for our family! She is great with our energetic dog. She is very dependable, flexible, and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her!
Our whole family was going on vacation for a week and we had no one to watch our two shih tzus who are incredibly spoiled. Jen came to our house and spent time with them before we left. They adored her. She gave them super amazing care so they weren't lonely or bored while we were gone. She sent me pictures and videos of them every day. I was so comfortable leaving them and never had to worry about them. I will always use her for my dog sitting. She is amazing!
Took great care of our home and cats while we were away. Helped keep my garden watered and performed light house keeping. An absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Jen’s Home & Pet Care. I will definitely use her service again.
Jen’s pet service is caring, warm, and professional. My cat is a rescue and doesn’t take to very many people but she took to Jen. Jen has a natural affinity for loving and caring for pets.
Jenni watched my 2 dogs in my house while I was out if town. She was punctual and kept me updated on their daily activities. Sending pictures and videos. The boys both seemed very content when I got home.
Jen is so friendly and easy going which puts my up tight dog at ease. She has been wonderful to work with!
Fantastic place. The property is beautiful and expansive - there are two large fenced yards, with available shade, for the dogs to play in. All the dogs are well socialized and seem to get along great. Liz and Alex send photos at the end of the day that will make you wish you were a dog at Mindful Paws instead of working all day. Our pit-hound mix arrives home exhausted!
Our dogs love it here! Very friendly and knowledgeable. I like knowing that my pets have space to play during the day and are stimulated. Would definitely recommend!
Our dogs, Cooper and Keeley, love going to Mindful Paws Daycare. When we arrive at Mindful Paws, they can’t wait to get out of the car. They greet the owners with such enthusiasm. The owners take the time to get to know your dog. They are so kind and caring of all the dogs. At the end of the day, we get an email with photos from the day. There are a couple of outside areas for the dogs to run and play, a big inside playroom, and indoor cubbies containing a cot for each dog to use during rest time. It's an outstanding facility! The ease of use of their website makes it a snap to book days, send messages, and see the wonderful photos. Everything is very professional! The dogs have fun and come home ready to relax.
My dog has been to 2 day care sessions and we will definitely be back. When we started to pull up the driveway on her second visit, she immediately recognized where she was and got excited. Alex and Liz are nice, great at communicating, and have a beautiful, safe, and clean property for dogs. They have also answered all of my questions thoroughly and in a timely manner. I love that there are multiple fenced yards for the dogs to play in. I love that it’s a limited number of dogs in each play group so the dogs aren’t overcrowded or over stimulated. I love that each dog gets a private area of their own for breaks in between play for rest. I look forward to the updates and photos from the end of each session. They make my day!
Arnie our golden loves going to mindful Paws dog day care. He has a get time there and Liz and Alex take such good care of the dogs . The cool thing is that every time he goes Liz and Alex send pictures of him and his pals. He always has a smile on his face. I would highly recommend Mindful Paw dog daycare. your dog will love it .
Mindful Paws has quickly become a home-away-from-home for our five year old shepherd. By our third visit, she was so excited when we pulled in and saw the staff. She can get overwhelmed with a lot dogs, and Paws always makes sure she has a small group to play in that's a good fit for her and her energy level. Not to mention it is just a beautiful place, too, and everyone's super friendly, professional, and reliable. Very lucky to have this day-care option in the area!
Like many people, we got a puppy in 2020 during the time most everyone was working from home. When it was time to go back to work we knew we needed an option for our now 95lb hound to run, socialize with other dogs and ultimately learn to be confident with more than just our family. Mindful Paws is just what we needed. They are thoughtful, kind, in tune to the dogs and take care of Jerry like he is one of their own. He gets so excited once he realizes where we are going 😂. Love that they have two huge outdoor fenced yards, the indoor play room, schedule rest breaks during the day and even offer nail trims. Thanks Mindful Paws!
As we drove in we were thrilled with the view and the wonderful location. Fresh air, green grass and nice and safe play fields. There is lots of room for the dogs. We brought Charlie to our "meet and greet" with Liz and Shirley. We were very impressed with the facility - its design, the cleanliness, and the overall concept. Of course our 5 month old pup was not on his best behavior but it was clear both women knew what they were doing as Charlie responded to them immediately. What we didn’t realize was how important the time Charlie spends at Mindful Paws is to his growth and socialization. Charlie seems much calmer at home since his weekly visits. It’s easy to go online to their site to book time, communicate with the staff, and see delightful pictures of your dog at play. The only negative thing is when we come to pick up Charlie he doesn’t want to leave.
This was the first time using daycare for my Rottweiler puppy and Mindful Paws is AMAZING! Their hours are perfect for people working out of the area and they send you photos and updates daily. They are a great couple and very nice. Plus my puppy is EXHAUSTED when we get home. Highly recommend
I brought my 8 month old lab puppy to Mindful Paws to give him the opportunity to socialize with other dogs, and, hopefully, use up some of his energy. He had a bad experience with a larger dog as a puppy and was very timid around other dogs. They were great at understanding dog body language and worked with my sweet puppy. He is now much more confident and ready to make friends with the world!!! I highly recommend Mindful Paws for your four-legged family member!
