TESTIMONIALS – We Love Our Clients!

Clients Love Us, Have a Look!

     It is a privilege to care for our clients’ pets. We strive to meet every need and exceed their expectations. 

Prancing Poodle is a step above, or probably many steps above, other pet care services we’ve tried…The pet sitting while we were gone was outstanding… We finally feel like we can relax a little with regard to our pet care and better enjoy our time away knowing our babies will be well cared for… Very well run and professional organization… Highly recommended.

Robert Meade

We are incredibly grateful for Prancing Poodle… My husband and I have never needed pet sitting services before, so with our 3 & 5 year old Australian Shepherds, this was a new experience for all of us. The entire process was easy, and we feel confident that our dogs are treated well and taken care of while we are gone… Thank you Prancing Poodle…we would give more than 5 stars if we could. We’d recommend this pet sitting service to anyone.

Melinda Martignetti

I don’t normally take the time to fill-out surveys, let alone give a perfect score… but in this case it was fully warranted… Julie has found a wonderful niche for pet owners that care about their pets like their own kids. She was such a great communicator and so dependable that we were totally at ease… Thank you Prancing Poodle!

We Care for Your Pets When You Can’t.

Prancing Poodle offers personalized care for your pets in the safety and security of their own homes. We know that all pets are individuals, with their own special wants and needs.

We get to know your pets, taking the time to learn about their likes and dislikes. We also realize that we must maintain the trust of our clients, who allow us to enter their homes and depend on us for the care of their much-loved pets.

Our commitment to outstanding pet care and customer service provides our clients with the assurance and peace of mind that their homes will be safe and that their pets will flourish, even in their absence.

Daily Routine = Less Stress

Maintaining the consistency of a daily routine is important for the well-being of your pet. Pets experience less stress and are safer from accidents and disease in their own homes. With in-home care, they are the singular focus for their pet sitter and have no need to compete for attention. They come to know their pet sitters and are happy and comfortable with them.

While some pets are fine in a boarding or daycare facility, others are overcome by the noise and confusion. It is for those pets, the ones who need special love and attention, that in-home care is a better choice.
