Kelly and Pat arrived the evening before I left on my trip so we were able to have a nice visit and get to know each other a bit. They asked many questions about the dogs and the house so that they would feel comfortable with the pet sit. Piper and Zuria were very comfortable with them. They sent pictures from dog walks, kept me informed and promptly notified me when there was one simple issue that they handled very well. I’m not able to speak to the condition of the house on my return because a second sitter came right after Kelly and Pat and before I came home. They spent time with the new sitter so that she would know how to take care of the dogs and negotiated the transfer time. Kelly and Pat are a lovely couple and very interesting to talk with. I feel lucky that they were able to take care of Piper and Zuria and would love to have them back again.

Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden. The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom. Already scheduled a second sit! If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.

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.

Martin was a very conscientious and thoughtful house sitter who took excellent care of our pets and our home. He was reliable, self-sufficient, and a very good communicator. He clearly enjoys and cares for animals, and our house was spotless when we returned. We recommend him wholeheartedly!

This was my first time using house sitters and Shanen and Ryan were wonderful. She sent me pictures of Calla and game me updates on Calla’s activities. She would be welcome to pet sit for me anytime!
Dominique
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!

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

Elaine was a welcomed sitter for Cyrus and Purrelli. I returned from holiday to find a very content relaxed dog and a happy fat cat. Purrelli doesn’t eat when he is stressed so seeing a little meat on him let me know he was content and happy :) My condo was left clean and in order, all communications were smooth and there was zero issues. Thx for the great pet care Elaine.

Laura is hands down the best sitter that we have ever had care for our pets and house! Having her stay made our trip away so care free and added a super fun layer of getting her daily (morning and night!) updates with photos and videos, some were hilarious I love Laura’s sense of humor! We were gone 8 days and when’s we arrived home our house was cleaner than when we left, mail on the counter, yard was picked up, it was beyond what we would expect. This made our first day back so easy. Oh’ and our pets were so relaxed and happy we knew they were loved and taken care of while we were away. Laura knew that we were coming home late and she even had bought a yummy quiche, rolls, fruit and juice so that we had breakfast in the morning! Laura is responsive, a great communicator, I could go on but simply put she is welcome at our house anytime. Simply the best!! Thank you tons Laura!!

Farhan is a fantastic house sitter! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a down-to-earth, kind, and caring pet sitter for their home. We have three small dogs (around 6 lbs) and he took excellent care of them. They can be a little nervous/ timid around new people, and more so around men at times, but the dogs didn't show any of that nervousness around Farhan! He was gentle and respectful of their space and they warmed up to him immediately. I got a wonderful text the first morning that I was away that they cuddled up with him at night - showing how quickly they adjusted to him as their caretaker. I was able to meet Farhan in person before I left on my trip and I was able to have a wonderful conversation with an ambitious explorer. He is a delightful person. Upon my homecoming the house was very clean and the dogs were happy and relaxed. I can't ask for anything more! Thank you Farhan for taking such wonderful care of our three dogs and our home.

Amber’s Pampering Pets has been a God-send to me. They have so many options to have your pets taken care of. All of their sitters are caring and loving.They send you detailed messages and great pictures of their time with them. Amber is accommodating , kind and knowledgeable. I can’t say enough good things about her service. She was referred to me by another friend and I have never regretted it. I highly recommend them!
Such a great owner and sitter for my first time experience with Ambers Pampered Pets! Jennifer did an amazing job caring for my two senior pups while i was gone for a week. I felt like my pups were safe and sound with Jennifer and loved getting a visit report and pictures! All the things you want, to know your pups are safe at home. And let me tell you my dachshund is a challenging boy, but the owner Amber came over and helped Jennifer and I make a plan where my Oscar did much better while keeping Jennifer safe from nips. 🫣🩵thank you to both Amber and Jennifer! You two are amazing. Kristin K.
I’ve been using Ambers Pampered Pets since 2005. Great service we never worry when her crew cares for our pets. At times when we’ve had an unexpected emergency and needed to request service at the last minute they stepped up and made it happen. Thank for all the years of worry free pet care! Your team is the best ! Jennifer does a great job with Harley, Frankie and Gracie (though she’s rarely spotted ) lol
Amber’s Pampered Pets is absolutely wonderful! I take great comfort knowing my pets are safe and happy while I’m away from home. I have two very shy dogs that take time to warm up to new people. Hailey and Gabby are truly incredible souls that understand their needs and haven’t pushed. Over time, my shy pups have started to warm up to them. I’m truly thankful for the service Amber provides our community. The sitters have great communication and show their love and dedication to animals. Thank you!
What a wonderful surprise to find Amber's Pampered Pets. I have a shy cat who loves lots of play time and snuggles from ONLY me. Even my grandkids send him to the closet to hide. APP's Jennifer came for the meet and greet and I was worried he wouldn't even show. But her quiet presence had him curious, and within minutes he was right there to meet her and sit on her lap. I loved the daily reports, including all the details of his care, which included medicinal attention and the wonderful pictures she sent. She even offered to take in our mail (which I had forgotten to stop) and our trash bin! The biggest surprise of the meet and greet was that our equally shy standard poodle came out of hiding to meet her. We will be calling on her to care for our babies any time we have occasion to get away. In fact, knowing we have this available will encourage us to do it more often! I also love the perfectly well thought out business plan of Amber's Pampered Pets company. Including the clock in and clock out feature on the app making it clear we were getting what we paid for. We felt confident our home and belongings were in safe hands. I would highly recommend them to any pet owner. Gratefully, Paula M.
Natosha did a GREAT job for me. I have 4 dogs, one that is reactive. She handle them with care, and professionism. After every visit, I received an update along with pictures. I couldn't have asked for someone better to take care of my pack . I now feel like I can leave home for vacation or a long weekend, and they will be in good hands. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Amber's Pampered Pets, and Natosha. I can't thank you both enough.
I love Amber's Pampered Pets and the many wonderful people who work on the team. My two girls were very well cared for by this team. I always felt good that they were taking care of my dogs as well as picking up the mail and checking the house when I was away. They are great!
Amber’s Pampered Pets is worth every penny! They were able to watch my fur kids at the last minute while I went on vacation. Natosha took great care of them and sent me updates whenever she stopped by. I was able to actually relax on vacation because I knew my pets were being loved and appreciated with the same love I give them! Highly recommend their services!!
Amber’s Pampered Pets did a great job taking care of our two cats. Sitter Gabs kept us informed the whole time we were away and sent lots of pictures. The app makes everything very easy. We will definitely be using their services again!
Amber's Pampered Pets service was amazing! My wife and I went on a week long vacation and instead of trying to board 8 cats, we opted to use Amber's service. We found them on a basic web search. From the first contact email everyone was very professional, courteous and friendly. Natosha and Chris came to our house before our vacation so they could meet the fur family and get to know us and them and our routine. They were very attentive and took notes and pictures. Once we left, we had them come twice a day. During each visit Chris or Natosha would send us updates. We knew what was happening and they took lots of pictures to let us know our pets were being cared for with much love. We would highly recommend this service if you have to travel. In home pet care is way less stressful on your animals. We will be using this service again! They are excellent!

Angel went above and beyond watching our nervous rescue dog overnight. It was our first time boarding her, and Angel sent us tons of pictures and updates to set us at ease. We dropped off an anxious pup and picked up a happy, tired dog with lots of new friends. I couldn’t recommend Angel enough!

We love taking our beagle to Angels. We are confident that she is safe and well taken care of. The dogs get lots of love and fresh air. She has a large, secured outside area for the dogs. I would recommend Angel to any pet parent if they’re looking for day care or boarding for their beloved pet.
Angel is amazing!! She watched our two dogs over a long weekend, and they absolutely loved her. She played with them the entire time, so we never had to worry about them being stuck in a cage like they would have been at a kennel. She also sent us updates and pictures daily, which we loved. We 10/10 recommend her to anyone.
Absolutely loved the experience. She made sure our 8 month old puppy was in good care and gave constant updates on how he was doing. Kept him for two days and he had so much fun. Will come again the next time me and my husband visit Indiana. 😊😊 …

Angel was wonderful! This was the first time I've boarded my dog and was incredibly anxious, but she consistently sent pics and text updates which put my heart at ease while I was away. Most definitely using her service again this fall when my wife delivers our baby ❤️
