Client Love

If I could give this company 10 stars, I would! This was our first time using a Pet Sitting company, and Happy Paws didn’t disappoint one single bit. We have 5 sweet fur babies and they are a lot of work and care. We were gone for 8 days across the U.S, and these girlies did an amazing job with our crew! I absolutely love the detailed updates after each visit, the photos of our animals, and how easy it was to access everything! Our pets were in amazing hands and so well taken care of. I can’t rave enough. We will be using Happy Paws from here on out whenever we need to go anywhere. They truly care about your pets and the well being of them. Highly recommend and will always spread the word about Happy Paws!!

I highly recommend Happy Paws to anyone needing vacation care for their pets! We just came back from a week-long trip and had Happy Paws caring for our 2 cats and everything went perfectly - They provide complete peace of mind with their thorough updates and many many pictures from each visit, and they are also super responsive if you message them about anything. You will be 100% comfortable leaving your fur babies at home in the care of Happy Paws!

We've used Happy Paws for multiple vacations, and we have friends that have as well. I know our dogs benefit from staying at home instead of boarding, and I'm always happy with the service. They communicate very well, they're flexible, and most important of all, they care. It's not much more in cost than regular boarding for this area, and in addition to taking care of your fury friends, you have folks monitoring your home, bringing in mail and packages, taking out trash, watering plants etc... It's worth it for you and your pets!

I couldn't be more thrilled with the care my two dogs received from The Happy Paws Pet Nanny over a long weekend! They treated our fur babies like their own, providing exceptional love and attention. From regular updates to ensuring their comfort and happiness, it was clear my dogs were in the best hands. Coming home to happy, relaxed pups made all the difference. I highly recommend The Happy Paws Pet Nanny to anyone looking for top-notch, compassionate care for their pets. We will definitely be using their services again!
