I have had and do have great service from wags! They are a great company. I will never higher Karen to ever work for us again! She thinks she is better then everyone else! When I ask her a question she goes right over me and texts my husband. He works! I am not good enough for her to talk too. I would not higher her to watch my fish! Thank you for being a great company and sending us great dog walkers! A ++ company. NOT KAREN!

I definitely highly recommend wags and wiggles! I was a very nervous dog mom trying to find the best pet service for my new baby Noel, trusting that they would care and love my dog as I do. They ABSOLUTELY HAVE and continue to do so!. I love my pet sitter "Carol". She is so loving, caring, and an amazing all around lady! She goes above and beyond. She knew Noel was having his neutering surgery and called to check on him the following day because she was worried and wanted to make sure everything went well. Noel has learned some new tricks from Carol as well. Love Love Love Carol! I use wags and wiggles 4 days a week and couldn't be happier! Thank you for making this dog mom so at peace knowing her baby is in great hands!

AMAZINGLY KIND BUSINESS! I was really in a bind as my cats managed to close themselves in the bathroom while I was out-of-state for the holidays. I use a pet camera to keep an eye on them and realized they weren't coming to their food/water/litter area for over 24 hours. The person I asked to watch the pets had not been responding so I was panicking a little and randomly searched this business.

I called and the lady on the phone was so kind and immediately helpful. She connected me with one of her pet sitters, Nancy, who was also very kind and helpful. She was able to go to my apartment within the hour and even fed them extra food and water while she was there. When I later checked my pet camera, the cats clearly loved her and didn't want her to leave! The business was so generous and even offered the service at a special rate for it being a wellness check. I will definitely be loyal to this business and can't thank them enough!

Been using Wags and Wiggles for our three dogs for almost 4 years and they are fantastic! Nancy is amazing and treats our pups like her own. I often need a last minute appointment and they always accommodate me. The best is the biz!

This company delivers high quality at a fair and reasonable price. Like the postal service, they are there through pouring rains, flooding roads and Florida subtropical heat. They are one of the few that has a real overnight service. Their sitters are dependable and real pet care takers. Recommend

We have used W&W several times now, and couldn't be more pleased with their service. It's often several months between the times we need a pet sitter and dog walker, so we schedule a reacquaintance visit prior to us leaving town. When the caregiver arrives, our dogs are ecstatic to see her, literally jumping for joy. They couldn't be happier. When we're away and our dogs are being cared for by W&W, everything we ask for is done. Dogs are fed, walked, and loved.

We always receive a visit-by-visit log to read upon our return to let us know how things went. In short, we can enjoy our vacation knowing that our pups are being well taken care of while we're away. Excellent service.

Don't use the company! I paid them for 30 minutes sits and found out that on average they were only there for 10 minutes, some visits were less than 5 minutes! No way they could have fed, changed water, scooped liter and given my babies some love! When I brought it to their attention they suggested I find another petsitter and will not return my house keys.
