MIKE
& KATRINA / Sam + Rosie (kitty cats)
We are a busy couple, often traveling, sometimes at short
notice. Our
cat, Samsara (Sam) KNOWS when we are going to be leaving
for a few days. Our luggage comes out, things get packed,
routines are messed up. She tries to stow away in our
bags, perhaps hoping we would not notice and actually
take her with us. It's always sad to leave her behind
but since we found Kristin and WOOF!, we are always much
happier about our travel arrangements, knowing that Sam
will have a chance to interact with someone who loves
her as much as we do. Kristin is a super person to work
with. She has a strong customer focus (human and feline),
and we always return from our trips to find Sam (and now
our new cat, Rosie), so relaxed and happy that they can
hardly drag themselves off the bed to greet us at the
door. Thanks to Kristin, while we are away, we know
our cats, and our home, are in great hands.

RICK
& NANCY SHEARS / Emmet + Tessie (2 dogs)
We give 5 stars to WOOF! Pet Sitting Service! We
have been using Kristin's "WOOF! Pet Sitting Service"
for approximately five years. Due to our Boston
Terriers' special medical needs and our neurotic worries,
we will only use WOOF when we travel. We have had
nothing but wonderful experiences with all of Kristin's
sitters. On top of being professional, they have
also been loving to our animals and treat them as
their own. We have two Boston Terriers, a parrot,
and a turtle. They take good care of all. WOOF
allows us a worry-free vacation.

NANCY
SCACCO / Zack (1 dog)
In the ten years I've had Zack, my golden, we have re-located
4 times. I've used many dog walkers and sitters
over those years and this is the first time I've never
called to check in with my pet to make sure that everything
is OK. It's also the first time that Zack is relaxed and
"stress-free" when we arrive home. Everyone
at Woof is so responsible and caring that I know Zack
is in goods hands. Of course, my ego is a bit bruised
because Zack doesn't seem to miss me much when we come
back from a trip! I would recommend Woof to anyone who
really cares about the welfare of their pet.

MICHAEL
& SUSAN SAMOLS / Yodi + Leo (2 kitties)
Despite the name "Woof", our kitties love Kristin.
Leo and Yodi are extremely loving and dependant, but skittish
around strangers due to their feral background. Whereas
prior pet sitters were not able to get near them, they
warmed up to Kristin (and Kate) immediately. Leo, who
previously only fell for men, has a crush on Kristin.
When we first left Leo and Yodi with Kristin for 10 days
we were worried that it was too long for the kitties but
now all our vacations are 2 weeks!

Maureen Higgins / Woody (1 dog)
My dog, Woody LOVES his pals from Woof Pet Sitting! So do I! His “WOOF” walks are a big part of his day. On days when I am home, I can see that Woody starts looking for his WOOF pals around 10 am, and when they arrive, he is bursting with joy! Plus, he gets great exercise, love and social interaction instead of some wimpy walk to the mailbox and back. As a matter of fact, I think Woody enjoys a better social life than I do. When I'm walking around town with him, total strangers have asked me, “Is that Woody?” Apparently, he is getting to know a lot of my neighbors, as well as their pooches while he is out during his excursions!
On days where I knew I would be home late, they've provided extra walks. When I was laid up after a recent knee surgery, WOOF essentially swept in and came to Woody's rescue until I was back on my feet again. I was also so happy to refer a friend to WOOF for an extra special assignment - her dog, Sarah, just had her leg amputated due to cancer and needed help being walked outside to do her thing. To add insult to injury, my friend had just broken several ribs and could not lift Sarah on her own. Needless to say, this was a very upsetting time for my friend, but she reported that their wonderful WOOF caretaker's kindness, reassurance and dog-savvy really helped Sarah comfortably adapt to her new walking routine after her surgery.
I adore my dog and am so happy that he has friends like his WOOF Buddies to keep him happy and fit. I will refer WOOF to anyone needing pet care services!!!

Julie Allecta / Piccola (1 dog)
Yes it would be great if you could take your dogs to the beach every day. Especially the ones that LOVE to run. But if work interferes with your preferred lifestyle, then I recommend Kristin Morrison and Woof! Kristin and her crew have been great. My dog is a rescue dog and had some shyness issues at first; but the patient steady hands of the “Woof! walkers” quickly broke through her shyness. Now, Piccola races to the door when she hears her “Woof! walker” arrive. I know that Piccola is safe, affectionately handled and gets plenty of exercise when she is taken care of by Woof! On rainy days she is cleaned and dried after her walk. And “Woof! walkers” are environmentally responsible…no dog mess left behind. Most importantly, Piccola gets individual attention. Sometimes she exercises with a friend, a dog of her size and temperament, maybe two…but never in a big unruly group. So her social skills are enhanced, not strained.
When schedule changes are necessary or last minute emergencies arise, Kristin is always helpful.

Elizabeth Cole / Sugar Bear (1 precious kitty, may she rest in peace)
I highly recommend Kristin's Woof Pet Sitting Service. It was such a
relief to me to know that my beloved cat, Sugar Bear, who was near the end
of her life, was truly cared for when I had to travel. Kristin and her
staff were loving and caring, as well as reliable and trustworthy. My first
choice would have been to stay home with my Sugar Bear and not travel, but
when I had to, Kristin's service was the next best thing.

Samantha Bronson / Bailey (1 dog)
We returned from our trip and I am so thrilled with the service WOOF! Pet Sitting provided for Bailey! This was our first time using a professional dog sitter, so we weren't quite sure how Bailey would do but we came home last night to one happy, well-cared-for dog. The overnight pet sitter you provided, Michelle, was wonderful in taking care of Bailey. Unlike other times we've left Bailey with friends and even family, she had none of the upset tummy problems she usually gets when we leave her. Not only was it comforting to know that Bailey was well-loved and tended to, but that our house was as well. That's a reassuring thought that made our vacation even more relaxed. Thanks again, and we'll definitely be calling WOOF! Pet Sitting Service next time we head out of town.

Mary S./Winston (1 dog)
WOOF's dog walking service has been a great thing for Winston. Since I had
moved to a new location I thought he could use the extra attention during the day and it would help with his social skills. I have been very pleased with the
service and I can tell Winston is too. He is always in a very happy
and energetic mood after he has had his walkies that day.
