Melissa AndersonJanuary 24, 2025 I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Hands n Paws! This was my first time using their services, and everything about it was seamless and stress-free. Benny, who looked after our cats, was phenomenal. He provided daily updates and adorable pictures of our cats, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our kitties were loved and well cared for. The level of professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for both our pets and home truly set this company apart. I highly recommend Hands n Paws to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet sitting services! Jake ElstonDecember 30, 2024 Hands N Paws truly was the best decision for having our cat, Snickers looked over during the Holiday’s. We received a very detailed report on how the visit went, and even were left some treats for when we returned home. The pet care tech Rebecca, did very well following our notes on how to best take care of our distinguished gentleman. Snickers can be a bit shy, especially with meeting new people. But from the pictures we viewed, it was as if he had made a new friend! Couldn’t have had a better first experience with the company, and would highly recommend it to anyone who needs their furry friends looked after!! Kellie MichaelsDecember 19, 2024 If I could give more stars, I would! Benny and the team at Hands and Paws have been amazing. They treat our pups with so much love and care. They leave detailed notes from the walks and take the sweetest pictures of our dogs. Would highly recommend them!! john josephDecember 8, 2024 Jess and Liz were amazing with Parker and Sheena! Totally content when we arrived home after 3 days. Hands n Paws is a must on our next travels! Heather MorrisNovember 27, 2024 I recently switched jobs which required more frequent in office time. Hands N Paws has been a wonderful service for me and my pups and has helped remove some of the stress with the transition. The team members are very meticulous on following instructions and they have always arrived within the requested window of time. They also send a detailed update and pictures after every service. I would highly recommend their services to anyone and will continue to use them to take care of my fur babies. Lisa Rebecca McArthurOctober 22, 2024 Really great service and it’s clear that each one of them really loves my pups. I don’t need to worry while I am at work. I love the reports I receive each day along with photos of my “kids”! David ThompsonOctober 15, 2024 Hands and Paws team were thorough and thoughtful when taking care of our kitties and providing session notes. We really enjoyed the peace of mind HNP brought to our vacation. Looking forward to our next service window with HNP, and will gladly recommend the service to family and friends! Maeve ElderOctober 14, 2024 My little kitty is always so well taken care of and happy when I have Hands N Paws watch her! Specific shoutout of Alyssa!! She’s my kitty’s new bff 😊 Joe BerardiOctober 13, 2024 The Hands N Paws team worked hard to comfort our dog Zoe while we traveled. This was the first time we had used this type of service and Zoe was very apprehensive at first, despite her loving nature, she was scared and nervous for the first few visits. Despite Zoe’s apprehension, the team worked their magic to make sure she was properly cared for - ultimately warming up to the team. We look forward to continuing to work with their team on future trips! Megan FishelOctober 13, 2024 Hands N Paws gave wonderful care to our fur babies while we were out of town! Thank you to Tori and Liz for your kindness and love towards Roxy and Jax! They kept to Roxy and Jax’s routine just like when we are home and handled their quirks well haha. The scheduling app is easy to use and makes communication seamless. Benny is very responsive and kind and you can tell he and his team take a lot of pride in what they do. HNP will be our go to service when we need someone to look after our fur babies!Load more
