Sit & Stay - Walk & Play

About us

If your pets could tell you, "Call Judi, we want to stay home and play”, they would. In the quiet security of their own home your pets will be kept on their daily routine of eating, playing and sleeping in their own bed. With your being, already home. You will save time and money by not needing to drop off and pick up your pet from a boarding facility. When you arrive home from your vacation, you will be greeted with sloppy kisses and wind generating wags.

Judi came to visit the dogs before staying so they would recognize her.. she has stayed several times and my dogs do great while she is there. Definitely makes going on vacation easier knowing they are being well taken care of in my absence!

Judi is remarkable with our cat. Our cat is old and grumpy and responds to her. She is efficient and does a great job. When we go out of town that is one thing I never worry about. Judi is the best!!

A while ago I needed someone to sit for my 3 cats for four days .This was the first time I used someone besides family or friends and I was a little apprehensive. There was no reason to worry. Judi was fantastic! Outside of feeding my cats and tending to the litter boxes she also spent quality time with them. My cats are usually wary of strangers but took to her immediately. I saw this with pictures that she sent. she also texted me with updates. I would definitely use Judi again and recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone who is both caring and efficient.

She sent pictures of our pets to keep us from worrying, and cleaned up after herself. When we returned our dogs were happy, and well fed! We were completely pleased with her work for two unconsecutive werks!!

We felt Judi did a wonderful job. Our younger dog loved her. Our elderly dog is a bit of a handful. He is blind and very nervous. But he seemed to respond to her well. Judi kept in touch with us while we were out of town and sent videos and pictures. One night we contacted Judi there was a storm and our younger dog can get nervous over storms so Judi stayed and watched a movie with her. Judi also played ball with her everyday. Our neighbors said they saw Judi out in the backyard a lot. We would definitely call Judi again.

We had Judi come meet the dogs prior to her watching them. The dogs had a positive response to her, but to me she seemed to lack some professionalism and didn't seem prepared as she lacked note taking and didn't have a ton of questions for me about anything. She didn't have her contract with her at the time so she sent it to me via email. When we left for our trip I left a detailed note on what I was expecting on let out times, how to feed the dogs etc. since she didn't take notes at her visit prior. We also left her the filled out contract she sent. We have cameras in our house and so when we got home we were upset with the amount of time she was here. Her visits are supposed to be 15 minutes each time. We requested 6 visits which would be 90 min for the weekend. Unfortunately going through the camera feed she was only here for a total of 45 minutes which is half the time. The dogs were fed but unfortunately were left alone more than we wanted. Also she didn't even take the contract that I filled out so I'm not sure why she even needed me to fill one out? The most unprofessional thing was after we got home we found the key box empty and on the counter. When I texted her where the key was she said she would bring it by so she could get paid. It's like she held our key for ransom. We will not be using her services again. We let her know about us looking at the camera and told her we would only pay for half since that was what she actually did. She said that was fine and left our key under our door mat where we left her check.

Judi has stayed with our two dogs twice now and we've been very pleased both times. She met with us before our trip to meet dogs and go over any questions/concerns. She has a very calming vibe about her and really seems to care about our "fur kids." This last time we were gone out of the country for 5+ days. Judi sent daily updates and photos via text, so we knew all was well. She also alerted us to the multiple power outages, but handled them with professionalism and reassured us that all was under control and the dogs were ok. The consent forms for the vet and other paperwork regarding our trip/travel plans is helpful in knowing she has all the information needed and help put our minds at ease while we were away.

Everything went fantastically!!  My dog got to roam the house like she does when I'm gone to work every day, was allowed out in the back yard multiple times a day and was kept company for a couple of hours each day while I was gone.  They also shut curtains, got mail out of mailbox and brought in, turned lights on and off as well.

I would definitely use this service again next time I travel and would have zero hesitation in recommending them to anyone who has a pet they love like a family member.

Judi came over prior to our family vacation to meet my dogs and discuss their care. I told her that I have always placed my trust in a local  kennel for my dogs but with our older dog Zoe, I felt the kennel was not the best place for her to stay. Zoe gets very nervous and doesn't eat well during our absence and feels much better being right at home. Judi understood her needs and told me about her other client that has a similar situation. She assured me that she would take proper care of Zoe and Nala, paying extra attention to Zoe when needed.

 Judi had brought over her contract for my review which I was very easy to read and to the point. This outlined what her do's and don'ts would be during their care. She said she would leave the contact for my review and asked that once signed I place it on my kitchen counter. She provided me with her email address and phone number.  She told me that if I had any questions to either email, text, or give her a call. She also told me she likes to send pictures of the dogs during vacation time just to say Hi. I thought that was perfect. I handed Judi my house key and told her that I was looking forward to a relaxing vacation.

My husband and I live in a subdivision and are acquainted with all of our neighbors very well. The morning Judi showed up our neighbor Wayne text me to tell me that our dog sitter was there throwing Nala her ball in the back yard. Wayne's text to me read " Enjoy your vacation! Your puppies are in good hands. Your sitter is doing a wonderful job with both Nala and Zoe."  What a relief! No worries! Judi sent me a couple of pictures on my cell phone that day of my girls. It made me smile knowing she was there taking good care of both of them.

Upon our arrival home after our wonderful vacation I noticed that my all of my flowers had been watered. Kansas was very hot at this time of year and I expected to come home to some flowers and plants that might not look so great. To my surprise Judi had gone above her call and watered all of my beautiful flowering pots. That was so nice!! I was greeted by two happy dogs waiting for us to come home from our vacation. We have a Golden Retriever and an Australian Shepherd.  If you know anything about Goldie's they are wonderful dogs, although, they shed like crazy! Judi had vacuumed my hardwood floors sweeping up my Goldie's dog hair!! WOW!! That was a really nice surprise!

I can say.....I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Judi for all your needs. She's trustworthy, professional and personable all wrapped into one. It's so hard finding someone that you can trust your personal belongings to along with LOVING your sweet furry family members.

THANK YOU JUDI...YOUR AWESOME!!!  <3
