"Thank you for the review. Brownie has been a true favorite for everyone who has had the opportunity to have her as part of their family during her many visits with Pet Sitters Inc. We have had the opportunity to watch her grow from a youngster to a mature girl. She brings a smile to everone's face!"
"We were happy to be able to serve your dogs. It can be a challenge to provide appropriate care , as you know, for a middle-age small dog and a young, silly large puppy. But as you recognized, our sitter did a fine job and both dogs did well. I am not sure what more we could have done to receive an "A" rating for the "Overall" score. If there was a problem, I hope you will call me to express your concerns. Thanks for the other "A" ratings. Thanks for using Pet Sitters."
"We were so happy to have this little 13 year old westie back again for a nice long visit. She has always been a delightful little girl who just wants to be part of a family. She is a special gal and welcome back anytime!"
"It is so nice to hear from this owner again. It has been a couple of years since we have seen her wonderful basset hound! I am hoping all is okay with them. This family has used us for several generations of dogs and they have the nicest dogs you could ever want to know. I am confused by the "B" for responsiveness in that I feel I have always dropped everything to be sure we served this family even with last minute calls. I am sorry that she didn't believe we earned an "A" and would love to be able to discuss that with her anytime. But as usual, we are always happy to hear from this family and to get to see and care for her delightful bassets."
"We were so happy to get to have this wonderful Vizla stay with us. She made herself right at home with the family and seemed to enjoy the company of another dog who was matched carefully and wouldn't bug her to play. She is a good example of what and why we do what we do best. We take the time to get specific information from the owner over the phone so we can really know what would make her comfortable. I know it was hard for this family to leave their older girl, but was glad to be able to show them that she was happy and comfortable with this service and thus free them up if they want or need to travel again."
When I took Toby to their house, I also brought his food for 12 days, treats, food and water bowls, and bed. Toby settled in immediately.
I called them once during my trip and was given an update on how the dog was doing.
Upon my return, I picked up Toby, who was obviously well-carred for and happy.
I Recommend Pet Sitters as well as George and Bonnie bor their excellent, caring service. I will definitely use this service again should the need arise.

"We were so happy to care for [Removed Pet Name]. He is such a kind and gentle guy. He did well even though life is often a bit of a worry for him. I am so proud that we can offer this service to the pets in the St Louis area for 35 years so that having families leave town is not a trauma for either the pet or the family. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to help."
"We were delighted to have this cute little dog stay with us twice. He was a bit shy for a short time on the first visit but then loved to play with another dog. When not playing, he lounged on the sitter's lap. Hope they travel again soon!"
"We have had the privilege of working with this family through 3 generations of dogs - since 2000! They have once again added a wonderful dog to their family and she has been loved by the sitters since 2012. A gentle, kind girl! I am sorry that our price got a "B" rating. I want people to know that if they boarded with most kennels, we are actually cheaper than they are even before thye add fees on for medications, playing with the dog, taking walks etc. We do not add on fees for food, medications, exercising, playing or loving the dogs and thus are usually less expensive than a stay at the kennel. I think that people appreciate the individualized care we give to each pet and that is why they continue to use this service for years and years. I am honored to be trusted to offer this service to the dogs in the St. Louis area."
"Thanks for this nice review. Your dogs did very well. The puppy, of course , thought there was a party going on as puppies do. She had a blast! The older dog seemed to love having the pup distracted, so he could catch up on some sleep. :) We loved having them both!"
"Carlie is such a sweet dog. She is her own "person" and wears the most wonderful pair of "rose-colored glasses". Her family loves her deeply and she trusts that everyone will love her too. She is right - everyone loves her! We love being a part of her life! Thanks for sharing her with us over 20 times in the past few years."
"This dog is sweet and gentle and the perfect house guest. What a pleasure to have her spend time with us."
"We had no house training issues -yahoo!! They did well. If the poodle was asked to vote, she would say her puppy sister should just grow up!! :)"
"We are always happy to care for this family's wonderful dog. I am not sure why this review is different than their Oct.14, 2014 review which was glowing. We have not gone up in price since then and remain competitive, if not lower, in price than other boarding facilities. This dog, as stated in their previous review, has always been placed with the sitter they requested, and she continues to provide their dog with a loving, caring second home. I am not sure why they gave a "B" in responsiveness. I have never not responded to their requests and have done so as.quickly as possible. In my memory, there has never been much of a delay. I will continue to strive to provide the very best in care for the dogs and cats of St. Louis in a timely manner knowing that I must be sure that sitters are not pressured to commit before they can do so reliably. If the family has any concerns about the price or responsiveness of Pet Sitters, I hope they will contact me."
"So happy to be able to care for this delightful Basset Hound. He is universally loved as was the previous generation of dogs who this family has owned over the past 10 years. They really know how to pick the most special guys and we are so happy they choose us to share them with. I understand how expensive pet care can be, but as it stands now, I am cheaper than most kennels if you have your dog walked twice a day and feed your own food, and we, of course, offer way more than that. I understand that I am either same price or cheaper than the newer services in town who try to duplicate my services. Again, I wish I could offer pet care services at a lower price, but since I share the income with my dedicated, wonderful sitters, I feel I am offering a lot of loving care at a fair price. We look forward to having this family's dog back anytime. He is one of those dogs who just makes you smile!!"
"I am so happy we could help with this special girl. I know there are people who would say that this disabled dog is too impaired to go on, but that means they haven't met her. She loves life and the people in it. She certainly takes some special handling but it was an honor to be part of her world."
"We love having this little girl. Everyone loves her and she just fits in beautifully to every family she spends time with. Thanks to her owner for giving us the opportunity to care for her."
