We had boarded our dog with Diane for 3-4 weeks because we were traveling. Our dog had been there before couple of time for half day or so and she really liked her so we had decided to board her with Diane. We had told her all the schedule about her feeding, bathing, combing and everything. She was sending pictures of her few times a week when we were away. When we returned, first we did not realise but when we went home we found she had lot of tangles in her hair in her entire body. She has lost a lot of weight. She did not seem like she was bathed for few weeks or I don't know how long. In short, we did not receive her as we left with her. We literally had to take her for grooming to have a haircut to get those tangles out. I don't know if our dog did not eat or other dogs ate her food but she should have paid attention to that. She had lot of tangles it means she did not comb her as she suppose to. I know nobody will be love as her we do but she should have taken care of her as she suppose to. So, in our opinion, she is good for short term like 1 or 2 days of boarding but I would not recommend to board any dog for long term as she does not take care them properly, May be because she is too busy because she takes too many dogs or just does not care.

We have used Diana for years to care for our dogs. She has come to our house to walk them and we have had our dogs stay with her at her home. She is 100% reliable- great with last minute requests - and most of all she loves our dogs and treats them the way we would. Her photos and text messages are always the best - We think she is fabulous and so do our dogs Mojo and Lula.

I have used Diana for a few years and we love the care Bernard receives from her on a daily basis. She arrives weekday afternoons and walks him and feed him dinner. Bernard loves her. She give his plenty of love and kisses while I am away at work. I would highly recommend Diana for your pet care needs.

Diana is fantastic -- she has fed my cat (twice a day) for about 6 months now, and is reliable, trustworthy, and just wonderful! You can tell she is a professional - when she came over the first time to meet my cat, she had forms and notes so she knew everything about my cat (and the house). And each time I've come home, the place is immaculate - hard to do with a cat who makes a mess around his food! Finally, a really nice touch that I came to depend on: she'll take a photo each visit and text you the photo with a note on how he's doing -- can't say enough great things about Diana!

Diana has watched my cat Saratoga on numerous occasions. She is very reliable and trustworthy. I always receive updates so I know how everything is going, which is a great relief when I am not home. I highly recommend her services!

Diana and her daughter were so wonderful in meeting w/ me given the short turnaround time I needed to obtain someone established and trusting based on the previous reviews. Although I was expecting Diana, I was a little surprised to see that her daughter seemed to be the primary person who would take care of kitty. I just moved here so I had a lot going on w/ things they helped out w/ (getting my mail, bringing in packages, helping me throw out moving boxes - this was so huge - sending me pics and updates on maintenance items that were certainly not in their scope of service!), in addition to ensuring kitty was taken care of! They provided a competitive, fair market value for pet sitting services and went above and beyond with other household items.

They even suggested trying a new litter that would reduce the odor so I dumped the crystal litter I was using as Diana found that in her experience, this type of litter is not very effective at all. She suggested trying World's Best Litter, which I haven't tried before but it definitely works! I think it's the kind that can be disposed of in the toilet as there were indications that it was done. Diana suggested that rather than using the Brita tank I had in the fridge for kitty, that I use the filters you can attach to the sink like Pur. I purchased those filters online but they did not arrive in time. They texted me on a daily basis w/ pics of my kitty - this was such a nice service they added since I love seeing how my kitty is doing when I'm away. I did have to sign a lot of forms which is what I would expect from a small business vs. a one person/non-formal sitter but there were many forms to sign with repeat info that I had to fill out by hand (name, address, phone #...it would have been easier if I could fill it all out electronically and given that info via email ahead of time).

I took her words of wisdom seriously and prepared kitty's litter to make it easier. I have had cat sitters in the past who went along with what I already had which made it easy for me so I didn't have to prep things as much. I also included a very detailed list of things that my kitty required and they listened and took note of it.

A few things I really appreciate in a cat sitter is the TLC and genuine love for cats. It's very easy to see and sense that sort of intangible thing. The cat sitters I've used in the past have absolutely adored my kitty as he is one of the sweetest, loving, and most beautiful cats that they've ever seen and were always eager to take care of him again whenever I went away. I did ask for several things like checking the AC to ensure it was on and at a reasonable temperature as my cat has a lot of fur (long hair) and they definitely checked and texted me back about that...but I'm not sure it was something they felt comfortable doing.

In the end, I'm glad I was able to entrust "Waggin Tails" to take care of kitty and the other wonderful things they did for me on such short notice. I would definitely utilize their services again if I'm in a bind and if I don't have to fill out a lot of paper forms, or change my kitty care practice. It was easy to tell what they were comfortable doing and despite the "no judging rule," I did get some raised eyebrows and a sense that they had a strong opinion about how things should be set up to take care of my kitty. When I'm strapped for time, I'd prefer not to do so many things to accommodate for things that are already in place.

Waggin' Tail Pet Care is amazing! Diana is so wonderful with our dog and always keeps us up to date on exactly what is happening with her while we are away. It helps ease our minds to know that our girl is getting such caring treatment. Diana has stayed with for our dog a few times, and has really adjusted to our dogs differing needs as she gets older. She will administer medication and takes her for as many walks as she needs. We love the daily updates and pictures!

We HIGHLY recommend Diana and Waggin Tail Pet Care!

We LOVE Waggin Tail Pet Care! We have two Great Danes and two cats. We have using Waggin Tail for occational dog walking and feeding the gang and for overnight pet sitting. They have been wonderful!! Our danes love them! They keep us posted on how everyone is doing when we are away and it is so comforting! They love our gang as much as we love them! We are planning a weeks vacation in August and we will be using their overnight services for the gang!

We highly reccommend their services!!!

My husband was hurt recently and we quickly had to find someone to walk our 110 lb German Shepard. We are so pleased to have found Waggin Tail Pet Care. They are wonderful, professional, caring people
who are true animal lovers-great in walking and caring for our dog. They really went over and above our expectations. We are planning to board our dog with them next month and we will continue to use them whenever we need pet care. We highly recommend Waggin Tails - and thank them for their loving care.
