Our experience was wonderful from start to finish. They are extremely prompt, and their portal makes it so easy to schedule, pay, and communicate. You can tell that they really care about what they are doing too. Our cat is diabetic so she needs some special care, and she was looked after with such great care, and we received regular communication about how the visits went and pictures of our cat. I will continue to use this service for our cat as I know that she is receiving the best care while we’re away.

I was more than a bit anxious about finding a pet sitter for my 5 month old bunny and had looked at many options but decided to go with Whiskers to Tails. From the first contact, Claire was quick to respond to my questions, walked me through the application, and coordinated a sitter for the dates I requested. Then she introduced me to Sarah, our pet sitter, who came over before we left to meet my rabbit and get the lay of the land. Sarah emailed or texted me after each visit with pictures or videos of the visit. She not only made sure he got the food and water he needed, plus litter box cleanup, but also took the time to socialize with him and give him some company while we were gone. I came home to a happy, healthy bunny thanks to Sarah’s excellent care and look forward to having her come out again the next time we are out of town. Whiskers to Tails did a fabulous job from start to finish. Don’t hesitate to trust them with your special pet! Cathy Venette

I have used WTTPS for a few years, for two different cats. Its reassuring and freeing to have someone caring for my cat and my home when I am out of town. When possible, I get the same sitter. She knows our home and cat well. Online reservations and payments work slick!

We have had cats for at three years and I still forget every time we are going to be out of town to set up pet sitting services. Even though I haven't plan ahead, Whiskers to Tails is always so accommodating and they get us plugged into their schedule right away. Mike, Claire and Michelle are all so great! We know with certainty that when we leave our pets to be looked after by their team, our cats are going to be well taken care. Of course they will ensure that their basic needs are meet (food, water, etc.), but the go the extra mile for our Max and Spot by giving them mental stimulation and emotional comfort during their visit as well. At our last visit, Michelle left a toy for us that the cats enjoyed with her and its' already ripped to shreds because our cats loved playing with it so much. My kids love the photo updates, it makes them feel connected to their pets while they are away. I highly recommend Whiskers to Tails. As long as we live in the Twin Cities, they will always be our first choice!

Mike and his team are top notch! Our two pugs love them! We have been using Whisker to Tails for a few years now and they are extremely professional, dependable and take the best care of the dogs. We have such peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. We usually have them visit once a day in the afternoon and they are very attentive to the dogs’ needs - one of the dogs is very old and needs special care. The younger one has also had her share of issues too, and they have been amazing at accommodating. I recommend them to everyone I know looking for pet sitting services and we’re so glad to have such a trustworthy company for our dogs.

We have trusted them to care for our cats, who have special needs, for the past few years. The sitters have been reliable, caring and easy to work with. They are able to give pills and make sure the cats get the correct food, and it's nice to get the video updates.

We have had a wonderful experience over the past two plus years with Whiskers to Tails Petsitting. It is very easy to request services and communication is smooth and prompt - especially when plans change at the last-minute. Our regular sitter, Claire, is amazing and our three cats love her. We have genuine peace of mind knowing that our furry and scaly family members are well cared for when we are out of town. Highly recommend!

Natalie did an amazing job! Leaving my pets makes me super anxious, but she was super great about sending daily updates and pics so I knew she was there and they were doing ok. I also loved the Whiskers to Tails system because you can specify a TON of info about your pets in your profile and all the specifics you want for their care.

I have used Whiskers to Tails over the years and they have been fantastic. Despite my sitters changing from time to time, Whiskers to Tails always has someone available to help out so I never have to stress about finding someone. Their staff are trained to follow my instructions very closely, giving me peace of mind when I am traveling out of town. The sitters constantly keep me updated and even send me videos and daily reports which let me know my furry friends are being taken care of. I happily pay them over having a friend watch them because they do such a good and consistent job, I just know everything will be done properly while I'm away.

Amazing! The pet sitters at Whiskers to Tails Petsitting are fantastic! My cat is quite timid but they always spend time trying to coax him out from under the bed. They are so caring and are great at communicating during their visits - I appreciate the photos they send while I am away from home. The client portal they use is very easy to use for payment and requesting future services! I highly recommend Whiskers to Tails Petsitting!

Natalie has been a wonderful carer for my 2 cats over my vacations and work trips. They, even my crankiest of cranky beasts, love her! She sends updates and pictures regularly, which I appreciate. She also keeps an eye on the house, rotates lights, and takes care of mail and the like. I never worry when she's taking care of the kitties while I'm away. Linda has been fantastic- she's quick to respond and does her absolute best to arrange a sitter who's cared for my pets before. Overall, this is a professional, reliable, experienced company, who I trust with my pets wholeheartedly. They are the best sitters I've ever had, hands down.

We are completely pleased with our pet care provider and have used her services for several years, but more importantly, our pets LOVE her. Our pet sitter is great with dogs and cats, remembers their likes and dislikes, and keeps us informed with updates and photos. It used to be stressful to leave our pets in the care of another person, but now, it makes leaving so much easier. In addition, working with the WTT staff is such a pleasure! I would recommend Whiskers to Tails to any pet owner.

I have worked with Whiskers to Tails for several years now, and their service has always been superb. Their communication is quick and timely and their reservation portal easy to use. When I am away, I get photos and narrative updates about my cats that are written by someone who really understands how important animals can be. I'll never use another service.

Top notch pet care. We have been using Whiskers to Tails Petsitting for two years now and wished we would of started using them sooner. We had too many bad experiences boarding our cats at different facilities and coming home and have to deal with crabby felines. They love the comfort of their own home and agree the tender care they receive is top notch. It’s piece of mind having the day to day communication with our pet sitter along with pictures and or videos too of how our Fur Babies are doing. It makes our time away from home way more enjoyable, and coming home to happy Kitties is sweet😻😻!!

We cannot say enough good things. Claire is amazing and came for a home visit prior to our trip. We had her come 3 times per day and she sends pictures and updates at each visit. She spends time playing with them as well. She follows our detailed special feeding instructions. We could not ask for a better pet sitter and have used multiple times and will continue to use. A+++

Highly recommend Whiskers to Tails Petsitting. Everyone we've worked with has been wonderful. They take amazing care of our animals and are very communicative of each visit and if conflicts arise with scheduling. We initially planned on this being a temporary service, but they've done such a fantastic job we've chosen to continue with their services regularly.

What a wonderful experience working with Whiskers to Tails Petsitting! Not only did they take care of my kitties on at a busy holiday and on short notice (when no other company would), but the service was OUTSTANDING. I've never used a service like this and so I was kind of nervous. But working with them has completely eased any anxiety about pet sitting. I am only in Minnesota for the summer months, but I will definitely be using them again. I wish there were a company like this in my home town! They are professional, reliable, offer comprehensive care (long visits with brushing sessions, litter box scooping, treat and play sessions, and video / text blasts with visit notes), and the owners are SO kind and friendly. They truly care for your animals as if they were their own. Thank you, and the kitties look forward to seeing you again soon! - Jody, Kitty Scout, and Kitty Lucy

I've been using Whiskers to Tails Pet sitting for about a year and I'm incredibly thankful I found them. Customer service is top notch and the dog walkers are incredible. I always get a little report on how the walk went and sometimes even a picture of my silly boy enjoying himself. I tell all my friends, family, and co-workers about the wonderful service I get and the comfort of knowing my big pup is getting a chance to stretch his legs while I'm away at work.

We’ve been using Whisker’s to Tails Petsitting for the past 4 years for overnight and daytime walk services for our dogs. They are the best! Not only do they take excellent care of our senior dogs but they always get back to me promptly for service requests, arrive on time and provide timely updates and photos. They even have been able to accommodate last minute requests. We highly recommend their services.

I ( and my cats) have had a terrific experience each time I've hired Whiskers to Tails. My cats look forward to the visits. The sitters (especially Claire) are kind, loving, and attentive to my cats. Claire keeps me posted on their behavior each time she visits. She sends me emails and photos each day. I strongly endorse this service. I would never kennel my animals, nor would I consider replacing Whiskers to Tails. It is a small price to pay for absolute piece of mind and security.
