Brenda was excellent when watching my dog April. She asked many questions to make sure that Apie's medical needs (Addison's disease) were met. It was clear when speaking with her that she knew what she was getting into with a high-energy dog breed, and was more than happy to put in extra time and work to make sure that April was not only safe, but was mentally and physically happy. I got plenty of photos. Brenda did not just shut April in her home and leave her with food: she made sure that my dog was a part of her day, and felt safe and comfortable every hour. (A good sign - April was jumping for joy and howling with happiness in the back seat when we pulled into the driveway for her second visit!)

Great service, very accommodating. They have taught my dog to behave better and go the extra mile regularly with her. I know I can trust them with my dog and home.

We moved to Montgomery and knew Brenda from previous house owner. Easy to schedule and we had her come to meet us and our dog prior, and had 4 dog walks during our vacation trips. Brenda sent us pictures and played with our dog every time, and wrote down notes which is very sweet. Highly Recommend!

We recently moved to the Princeton area and needed a pet sitter while we traveled for Thanksgiving. One of our cats requires 3 types of medication on various schedules (including insulin injections), so we were worried about being able to find someone to pet sit. We didn't have to worry, though, because Zoe and Brenda were great! Zoe sent pictures and updates every time she visited, and left a log letting us know when she came and which meds she administered.
There was bad weather when we were traveling home, and Brenda checked in with us to make sure our cats were cared for if we were delayed. Overall this was a great experience. We highly recommend Beg n Bark and will use them any time we leave town!
