Reviews: Dogs can’t talk, but their owners can!

We have had several bookings with Ann and our dog loves staying at her place. Ann is very responsible and caring and you can be certain that your dog has a safe and happy place to stay while you are away. Ann is also very good at sending pictures. I highly recommend Ann!

We feel extremely lucky to have found Ann as our dog sitter while we are away! We have a dog that can easily wander off, but needs outdoor time and we feel at complete ease knowing he is with her. She is very good about sending picture updates and giving medications. Our dog is always happy and rested when we pick him up. After searching for a year we finally found the only dog sitter we trust!

Ann was amazing! We appreciated the regular updates and photos so much and were able to enjoy our vacation more, knowing that our pups were happy. It was a perfect vacation for all of us!

Ann is such a special caretaker of dogs. My two senior pups, Desi and Ginger, walk into Ann’s home as if they belong there, because they do! It is truly their home away from home. It is hard having two beloved pups growing old at the same time. But to have a caretaker like Ann when I need to be out of town is such a relief. I highly recommend Ann if you are looking for a safe and caring place for your dogs to stay.

We had another great experience with Ann — so thankful when we have to go out of town without Sally that she can spend time at Ann’s playing with other dogs. I can relax knowing Sally is being well cared for.

Our experience with Ann was wonderful! My 6 year old puggle Reilly is a sweet dog but has been spoiled by being able to stay with family or friends when I have gone away in the past. I really wanted to find a loving home environment for her versus a kennel type of situation. Ann really fit the bill in terms of what I was looking for. Reilly is friendly to both dogs and people but can be nervous and skittish at times and sometimes can take time to warm up to new situations. Ann was very perceptive and sensitive to Reilly’s needs. She did a great job of sending updates and pictures to reassure me while I was away. Reilly seemed glad to see me when I returned but also seemed comfortable and at ease when I went to pick her up. In other doggie daycare situations, she seemed over excited and with lots of panting when I picked her up, she seemed calmer and more herself when I picked her up from Ann’s. I feel very comfortable leaving my precious puggle in Ann’s care and it is a big relief to have the reassurance that Reilly will be in good hands and a happy situation when I am away.

Ann is wonderful! We love the daily updates and pictures she sends. Our dog loves his little pet retreat!!

Once again, our dog, Sarafina, had a fabulous time. Ann has a special way with dogs and they simply love her for it. Ann sent photos of our dog while we were away. Ann is truly concerned about your pet and their overall health. If she notices anything unusual, she is quick to share that information with you. When you return home & pick up your pet…your pet is happy to see you (but seems sad to leave Ann). Wonderful sign.

So happy to have found Ann. Baxter was with her for 10 fun days of feeling right at home. She did a great job of helping him to adjust to other dogs coming and going. She kept us updated daily. The bonus is that she’s a great photographer!

Another wonderful stay! We always have great peace of mind when we send our beagle to stay at Ann’s. Ann has great warmth and cares for the dogs as if they were her own. We especially appreciate the email updates and photos sent to us. Thanks, Ann!

Ann is truly wonderful with our dog. I leave him with only Ann or family members and he seems so much more content with Ann.

Once again, Jules was spoiled beyond words…thank you so much Ann for taking such great care of our baby.

All dogs love Ann, including ours. Our two week vacation was worry-free knowing that our Lab is always treated like a queen.

Ann is the best dog sitter I have ever encountered! She sent me photos every day of my dog having a blast, and even let him sleep on her bed. I could tell my dog had a great week with her when I picked him up — especially amazing b/c he has bad separation anxiety. I would recommend Ann wholeheartedly!

When my dog was excited to be back at Ann’s house, I knew it was going to be great. She’s clearly naturally good with dogs, and helped him feel comfortable in a very calm way. Ann sent pictures every day, and I’m sure he had a great time running around her huge fenced in yard. We’ll definitely use her again!

Ann is a wonderful petsitter. She was very flexible in taking into account my travel schedule, and I love that she sends me photos of my dog every day. My dog enjoys hanging out in her back yard, lounging on the sofa, playing with the doggie toys, and even sleeping with Ann on her bed once in a while. To me that means my dog is happy being with her!

My pup has stayed with Ann numerous times and always receives the best of care. She is the best there is and I’m grateful for her willingness and flexibility whenever I travel. I hope to continue to use Ann for years to come.

It’s difficult to express how pleased we have been with Ann and her care of our standard poodle, Halle. From the first contact and throughout Halle’s stay, Ann has provided rapid responses to every inquiry or concern. The reservation process was quick and efficient. We asked to extend Halle’s stay by an extra night and she was accommodating. She has sent us daily photos of a happy Halle! We can’t say enough about how pleased we have been with Meet, Stay, Love!

Ann was a fabulous sitter for our dog, Lexi! She was thorough with obtaining information about our dog so that everything would go smoothly. We know she was a loving caregiver – and she sent pictures and comments every day so that we were comfortable knowing that Lexi was in good hands. We highly recommend Ann!

The bad part about reviews is that everyone finds out how wonderful your sitter is, and then you can’t get an appointment. well, I hope we will always be able to get an appointment. But Ann really was perfect in so many ways — frequent updates so I always knew what was going on. I was worried about leaving my dog for a week. She had been in a few shelters and has separation anxiety. Ann’s updates put my mind at ease and I felt like she was truly engaged with my dog.

I feel so fortunate to have found Ann. She is absolutely wonderful. She has looked after my 2 dogs twice for two weeks each time. They are smitten with her! At our initial Meet and Greet, Ann discussed the dogs with me in detail and actually took notes. She wanted to know the ins and outs of their routine, their preferences and quirks. I was really impressed that she took so much interest in their happiness and safety. Consequently, I don’t worry about a thing when my girls are with Ann. And she sends me pictures and updates which provide further reassurance that they are comfortable and well cared for. While welcoming me when I pick them up, they also run back over to Ann as though they want to say “thank you”. They’ve never done that before! My only hesitation in writing this review is that once word gets out about how fabulous Ann is, I’m afraid she is going to be booked solid and won’t have time to look after my girls anymore!

I left my terrier mix, Rosie, with Ann for a week while on a family vacation. I work from home a lot, so Rosie is accustomed to being around her human family most of the day, and I did not want her to spend a lot of time alone in an unfamiliar house (or for that matter, her own). Ann’s work-from-home setup seemed perfect given these concerns. (The big fenced yard is the icing on the cake.) When I picked Rosie up, I was struck by how calm and settled she seemed – she can usually be a bit jittery for the first day or so upon returning home from a boarding situation, but was clearly super-comfortable and had had a great vacay herself while we were away!

For all you dog mamas and papas, let me just say that your sweet critters will NEVER be in more loving, and most importantly, trustworthy hands (when not in yours ) than when they are cared for by Ann. Her home is warm and loving and her back yard is awesome. She is now part of my family. My two pugs LOVE her. And that’s the truth!

Ann was fantastic! She really took the time to get to know Sam before he came for his stay and was so accommodating and patient with his needs. He was sad to leave after the week was up; he seems to especially miss the big backyard Ann has and all of the lovely sticks he found in it. We look forward to having Sam stay with Ann again the next time we need to be out of town! Ann is highly recommended.
