Pretty much my furry boys chose her! They met Lisa and were obviously, very comfortable with her as one kissed her constantly on couch and the other laid at her feet during the beginning of our meeting. Amazing! Maked me a happy Mommy! Then as we did walk through of house and discussed all points of their care they responded to her always as of knowing she was going to be their loving babysitter! Very impressed and comfortable of her kind and nurturing nature, knowledge of pets and the importance of their routines and tlc needed when we are away. Feel completely at ease with Lisa in our home, sitting and loving our boys!

This is the first time having Lap Dogs and Cat Pet Sitting take care of our dogs. We feel Lisa and her husband handled our dogs wonderfully. We have 2 dogs, 1 old and 1 very temperamental. They took great care of our dogs for 7 days. Lisa was very good about keeping us informed on how our dogs were doing, and we were so pleased and grateful she sent us pictures and videos of our beloved doggies everyday! Honestly, we believe they went above and beyond, in that they kept our home clean, picked up any dog droppings, and took in our mail, even though we said it wasn't necessary. Some other pet sitters charge extra for some additional services, wherein Lap Dogs and Cats Pet Sitting did not. They are definitely priced well compared to others in the area. Also, thought we would be home earlier and told Lisa to skip her bedtime visit but that we'd tell if she had to come after all. Since Lisa is so caring, she asked if I didn't mind texting her when we did arrive home so that she'd know all was well and wouldn't worry. Lisa and her husband took the time to make us feel comfortable about hiring them. We also were happy to hear that they are loving pet parents themselves to at least triple the amount of dogs than we have, and all rescues! To us this means they have good souls and do this more because they love and care about animals than for the money. Also, we told them to be careful with our temperamental dog and it was okay if they didn't pay too much attention to her--just to feed her, make sure she had water and let her out. But again, they went above and beyond by being extremely patient with her, spending extra time with her in gaining her trust to to the point she allowed them to pet her and show her love and affection. For these reasons, we feel all the more confidant and happy with our choice and will most definitely hire Lisa at Lap Dogs again whenever we need a pet sitter. Thank you for helping us find them!
