The Meet & Greet was very thorough and detailed. I was surprised that my finicky cat came to check the sitter out. Subsequently, a sitter watched my cat over several separate visits, and it was clear through the visit reports that my cat loved the sitter. All the visits were completed having followed my directions & with professionalism. I would highly recommend Paw Pals.



Brian
We have used Paw Pals for a number of years now and would highly recommend to anyone looking for help with their pets. Great communication from owner Mary and flexibility to make adjustments in schedule as life changes over time. Have had a consistent set of walkers who have gotten to know our pup and the various walking routes around our neighborhood quite well.



Ashley
Highly recommend as pet sitters! Initially, a sitter from the company will visit the house to meet the pets and learn where everything is... Each time they check in, we receive an email message with updates and pictures, which is so comforting when we are on the road... If something were to happen I know they would be okay. Five stars for Paw Pals!



Katie
i honestly cannot recommend Mary and her crew enough! We started using Mary originally about 7 years when our Aussie Lana was younger. Right before the pandemic, we adopted our second Aussie, Goose, and Mary recommended a fantastic trainer for him. We now have weekly walks for the dogs, and they love all of their walkers! Paw Pals is our go-to for any help with our dogs!



Joseph
Paw Pals provided a large number of photos of our pets along with a personalized message on how our pets were doing with every single visit. I would highly recommend using Paw Pals, we'll be continuing to use them whenever we go on vacation.



Lakeisha
I was thoroughly impressed! I have nothing but great reviews regarding this company. They are very reliable, dependable, thorough. Every walker was thorough in the specifics of what they did and the time in which they did it. I was pleasantly impressed and well assured my little guys were taken good care of. I will certainly use them in the future, and highly recommend them!



Lesley
We can't rave enough about Paw Pals. They took care of our 18-year-old cat and 20-year-old chinchilla while we were away, and when our flight got cancelled they were so accommodating and available last minute for an extra day. I loved the pictures and updates on how our lil geriatric guys were doing. Thanks a million, Paw Pals!! Our special pets were so well cared for.
