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!

Never cancelled a sit, all boosters, non-smoker, traveling solo
Maureen was a treat from start to finish with our home and cat, Poppy! She is perhaps one of the most organized sitters we have encountered on zeewoi. Her resume speaks for itself. She was eager to sit, despite it being a somewhat short notice (about 10 days). Upon arrival we received pictures of Poppy to let us know that she was in good hands. We also got daily updates in the evenings, which we enjoy. Maureen stayed at our home during the coldest stretch of the year, and came prepared with heating blankets, etc, which we appreciated as we only have space heaters currently. We would be happy to host Maureen any time. Her communication and experience are certainly top notch and your pet will be in great hands!

Quiet, reliable and responsible cat (and small dog) lady
This was our first time using a Trusted Sitter, and I'm so grateful Elena chose to stay with our precious pup. He's a senior dog that requires a little extra attention, and Elena was so kind and caring with him. From our very first zoom call to get to know one another, I knew Elena would be a great fit. She was very organized, told us what she needed to know, and was very flexible when our dates changed a bit. Elena sent several pictures of Beamer every day. My kids eagerly awaited to see what their brother was up to while we were away. He looked so happy in all of his pictures. She took him for walks and gave him plenty of cuddle time. Elena also took such great care of our home. We arrived back to a spotless house! Our experience with Elena was more than I could have hoped for using Trusted Sitter. It was like having an old friend stay over. I highly recommend Elena, and hope she will be available to stay the next time we go on vacation!

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.

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.

Experienced pet and housesitter, trustworthy, conscientious and caring
Judy is clearly a pro at being a housesitter. She was super communicative and sent us frequent pictures. She kept our home tidy and took great care of Lola. In fact, on a last-minute notice, she was even able to stay an extra night due to a disruption in our travel plans. Five stars all around.

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.

This was our first time using a pet or house sitter and the bar set by Leslie is very high! She is warm, friendly, communicative, responsible and very clean. Upon arriving, she immediately bonded with our rat terrier, Oreo, by bringing him a new frisbee (his favorite toy/activity) and throwing it for him in our backyard. Leslie has a sweet and mellow dog, Benny, who is now Oreo's new buddy! She kept my husband and I updated via texts/pictures of their daily activities, our house, and was proactive in asking questions before she left. She even dropped our dog off at the kennel for one night at the end of our trip since our flight was too late for us to get home for him! Our home was clean and had fresh flowers from our garden that she put in vases for us! Such a simple and nice touch! We have asked Leslie to come back to sit for us again for 2 weeks in August. I'd highly recommend her to take care of your pet(s) and home too!
Prashant and India were fantastic pets sitters for us. Both were dependable and were even kind enough to allow some service people into the home to do some repairs. Our dogs were well looked after and we got daily updates on how the dogs were doing. Prashant is very knowledgeable and gave us a few strategies to combat some negative behaviors that we were seeing with the dogs. Could not recommend them more. They will be missed.
This was the 3rd time that Jill sat for us. That says it all but please read our previous reviews. They all stand and Jill is one of the best and most reliable and loving pet sitters we’ve ever had. If you have a chance to have her in your home and caring for your pets, you will be absolutely delighted. We love her.
Monique was very nice and easy to schedule with. She sent us pictures of our dog Maisie while we were away, which we enjoyed seeing. Maisie was well cared for and had gotten plenty of exercise by the time we got home. The house was spotless, which was lovely to come home to! She had taken the trash and recycling bins out, even though we hadn’t mentioned them to her before we left. She made sure to let us know if anything was amiss so there were no surprises when we returned. Would definitely recommend her as a pet and house sitter for others. :)
Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.
Felecia was an excellent sitter and perfect companion for Livi, our 3 yr old Aussie mix! She was always prompt with communication when needed, took great care of our pet and house and was just as clean coming home as we left it. I would not hesitate to recommend Felecia for other sits.
Sharon was by far the best sitter I’ve ever had! From the very first time we connected, she was communicative and proactive with follow up. She asked great questions prior to her stay and I could tell she’s done this many times and that she genuinely cares about the pets and homes she cares for. Sharon went above and beyond to leave my house in ever better shape, cleaning and organizing. It was a dream to come home to! Thank you Sharon!
5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith
Leo and Susi were wonderful pet sitters for our two cats. They were responsive, communicative, and gracious guests, and the I swear the house was cleaner when we got home than we left it. The cats were very contented. Any time we leave we will be checking in with them first. Such a pleasure to work with.
Jerry and Suzanne were absolutely ideal sitters for our home and pets. We spoke with them ahead of their visit and could tell that they are genuine pet and travel lovers. Over their stay we got to see even more that they are wonderfully friendly, kind, and responsible - plus they kept us laughing with their updates and descriptions of our pets' antics while we were away. Our pets and plants were well loved and our house was spotless upon our return home, and they were even kind enough to leave a few goodies in the fridge. Our dog in particular seemed to miss them and their long walks around the neighborhood. Thank you Jerry and Suzanne! We wish you well in your travels!

This is the best place to bring your dog. They really care about your normal while you're away or at work. Can't go wrong with salty dog daycare. I'm so glad they never closed through the COVID time. The best prices for doggie daycare. Very personalized treatment
Great place to keep your dogs for vacation. We received constant updates with pictures and our dogs were freshly bathed and pooped from playing with all the other dogs when we retrieved them. Will definitely use again and would recommend to anyone who worries about their dogs on vacation!
You really care about your animals. Can't go wrong with salty dog daycare reasonably priced ! Treat them like their own ❤️
I visited Salty Dog last week and it was a delight! I certainly look forward to taking my babies there, Owner was very nice and knowledgeable, the environment was clean. We will be back!
Great place, lots of room for the dogs, lots of very supervised playtime, and groups are made to ensure that no dog is put with a dog they don't get along with. Very accommodating, and they accept unaltered dogs! (So long as they aren't in heat of course)
Elizabeth is great and our dog loves her
Great location, wonderful people.
My husband and I are having a wonderful experience with Jay at Canine Dominion. We're so grateful for Jay's training, it made a huge difference in Blue's behavior after just the first lesson! Before we started training with Jay, Blue was anxious and reactive, which made taking him to the veterinarian a real challenge but after just two weeks of training, Blue was responding really well. Whenever we asked him to listen or sit, he did so immediately. This was a huge improvement compared to the previous year, when everyone remembered Blue for his anxious and reactive behavior. This year, he was amazing! We're so proud of our dog. We also appreciate that Jay is always available to answer questions and provide guidance outside of scheduled training sessions.
I just want to say that Jay was outstanding and really helped me with my situation. I have always had dogs that were behaved but I need something a little more refined because I have a daughter with special needs and mobility issues and I needed Atlas as a large dog to be under her control because falls and leash tugging can be dangerous for her. Jay really helped me with understanding the importance of timing, reading the puppy's body language and repetitiveness and consistency in training. Atlas has come a long way and is becoming the companion we were anticipating him being for her.
10/10 would recommend! Jay has that passion for what he does, and that absolutely shines through his training of you and your animal. From day one I had behavior issues with my Cane corso, I called around a few places and from the first 15 seconds on the phone, I knew jay was the guy! I had a disobedient 3 month old on my hands, and from the moment Biggie and jay met it was INSTANT! Do yourself a favor and go with Canine Dominion!!
I was on the fence about a few trainers and most didn't answer the phone, my questions, or just directed me to a website. Jay took the time to explain all the options, his expectations, and sent the contract. Upon speaking to him, I took a chance and went with the lifetime training for a newly adopted shelter dog that had no training. We have been working with Jay for a few months now and we have made many leaps and bounds. If you are looking for a great trainer in the area, I would highly suggest Jay and Canine Dominion.
My husband bought a puppy 7 months before we moved across the country. I didn't want to deal with having an untrained dog, moving , and finding a new place so I knew we had to hire a professional. I am so grateful we did! Jay did an excellent job of training me how to train my Pit puppy. He was thorough, punctual and answered any and all questions. My pup is so well behaved and is constantly praised for his obedience almost everywhere we go. Couldn't have done it without Canine Dominion! Best in the area.
What a great experience to learn from Jauvarie to train my 12 year old mixed breed dog! I needed help keeping Ed from barking so much and sharpening basic skills ie. sit, stay, etc. We have accomplished that ( and my neighbors have noticed and commented to me) and so much more……and no collar corrections and no treats. It is amazing. Far beyond the better behavior of my dog is all I have learned about my dog. I am a better dog owner. I understand Ed, and his needs, and we are both happier. 5 shining stars to Jauvarie and Canine Dominion.
Jay is a phenomenal trainer. He has taught me how to communicate with my 2 year old Airedale Terrier. I have taken what I have learned from Jay and applied to my 7month old puppy. Jay has great communication, he is professional, and very reliable. I highly recommend him and his company.
Awesome training experience. Jay makes you feel like you’re his only client. Communication is amazing, he’s always early for his training sessions, and you can tell he loves what he does. I have a very well behaved puppy; and I’ve been given great tools to continue training. I couldn’t have asked for a better training experience.
Jay was great with my rescue dog Angel. He taught me why she had certain problem behaviors and he helped strengthen my relationship with my dog. He is flexible and professional and we loved working with him! Would recommend to anyone looking to polish their dogs behavior and strengthen the handler and dog bond.
Jay has been great at training our 8 month Cane Corso! We have learned so much about how to be great leaders for our dog & saw a difference with our dog in only a few lessons! We look forward to continue our training! Highly recommend!
