“Chris and her team have been watching our fur kids for several years and we can not say enough good things about them. They are professional and trustworthy, and provide peace of mind with a seamless process and detailed reports and pictures. Our pets are seniors with special needs, and leaving them is always the hardest part of going out of town. The Glad Wags team always puts our minds at ease knowing they well taken care of. Each and every time we have used their pet sitting services, we have been more than happy with the care they have provided. We, and our fur kids, highly recommend!”
Best secret in LWR. Glad Wags provides house watch services in our area in addition to pet care and they are extremely reliable, thorough and responsive! We’ve used their services for two years now and couldn’t be more pleased with their care. —Dennis K.
We love Glad Wags! It gives me peace to know my three doodles are in such great hands. Chris and her team are amazing!! — Michelle R.
“From my first meeting with Chris, the owner of Glad Wags, I knew that my senior pomeranian, Tico, was in good care! If you treat your furry loved ones, like family then you shouldn’t settle for less than the professional service of Glad Wags. She met with me at my home to meet Tico, we went for a walk with him because I wanted her to see his little quirks when he’s outside. Then she went through all of her policies, she took all of his information — vet name, how he ate, the food, the meds, treats...you name it! She left no stone unturned! I knew that Tico would be in fabulous care with her sitters that are all background checked. Once you are a client, you have access to her awesome app to book your services, pay bills and communicate with her & sitters. Each time they come for a session, they immediately send you a “report” with how Tico was, if he ate, how the walk went, if they gave him a treat, etc. They also send pictures which makes you feel like you’re right there with them! We also had an awesome experience when we had to do long term sitting over a weekend. The reports & communication all weekend made us feel so comfortable. I literally can not say enough good things about how professionals, reliable and fabulous Chris & her staff are. Her rates are more than fair for the services she provides and she insured which is a plus because the high school neighbor that you may hire sure doesn’t have that level of security! Tico & my family adore Glad Wags and will be continue to be a returning client!” — Lisa C.”
“My three pups and I can't say enough good things about Glad Wags. I have total peace of mind when I am away long hours, knowing a reliable, experienced, friendly sitter will come to play with my dogs, let them out to potty, entertain them, love them up and give them fresh water and a treat to tide them over until I get home. I am very impressed with the reliability and professionalism of the sitters, who always check to make sure my home is secure, alert me if they notice anything amiss, and send me the most amazing visit reports full of photos of my happy guys. I am also impressed with their responsiveness, on those rare occasions when I have had to request service on short notice.
All paws up for Glad Wags!” — Kim H.
“I can not say enough about Glad Wags! I have been a client for approximately 3&1/2yrs and Chris and her team are amazing. I had tried several options prior to meeting Chris and never felt completely comfortable. With Glad Wags, I don’t even think twice and know that my dogs are getting plenty of love and attention. With Glad Wags, it’s not a job for this team, they truly become part of the family. I recently lost my 4yo Golden-Doodle and Chris went above and beyond to talk me through it and followed up after to check on me. That meant the world to me and although I knew before that, I really realized then just how much my dogs and my family meant to her and her team. I would never trust anyone else, in fact I have even trusted them to stay in my home for extended periods of time when I was traveling and I have always felt completely at ease, especially when they send me updates and pictures to keep n touch with my fur babies. Don’t look any further, these are the people you want loving on your furry family members, you will not be disappointed.” — Jen L.”
Chris & the team at Glad Wags have been watching my 2 cats since I adopted them almost 2 years ago. They are reliable, caring, & extremely accommodating. I never have to worry if my 2 are being taken care of. Sometimes I even think they like when I go out of town because it means playtime with Amanda & the other sitters! — Dawn H.
“Great people. Very convenient to book via their site and love the pics post during stays that let you know how your babies are doing. Great peace of mind knowing they are in good hands” — Janice J.
““We are blown away by how you have [our cats] so relaxed and even having fun!! Thank you for making our vacation the same for us with this important aspect going so well. Happy cats mean happy us!” — Tom M.”
“We have two precious shih-poos, 13 year old Bailey and 9 month old Baxley and needed pet sitting services for Christmas. We contacted Glad Wags and from our first meeting with Chris and Amanda, their love of animals and caring for pets was evident. They thoroughly discussed our pets’ needs, routine, feeding instructions, their policies, Time to Pet App and what we can expect from their visits before scheduling. Each visit was accompanied by adorable photos and a thorough report detailing their activity. The time and effort put into these photographic and written details was not only impressive, but gave us peace of mind to enjoy our holiday away knowing our fur babies were in very capable hands. Thank you to Chris and Amanda for taking time at Christmas to care for Bailey and Baxley. Due to their extraordinary efforts, we returned home to find two very content pups and now have our go-to for pet sitting. We very enthusiastically recommend their services!”
“Always professional and trustworthy. We’ve used them for three years and would highly recommend without hesitation. Great service! Our dogs love them. — Brian W.”
““Thank you for all of the TLC you give to [our pet]! It’s so nice to have trustworthy professional support that we can count on to help us care of our special dog child.” — Donna T.”
“Glad Wags is the greatest! My husband and I had been looking for pet sitters for our large dog and 3 rescue cats, and Chris and her crew were the perfect find! Each of the pet sitters are very professional and always smiling, and have bonded with our fur babies and provide excellent care! They have a “move-in” service which is great for us traveling to see our grandkids, and we trust the sitters completely. Our dog is older and takes some meds and needs walked every day, and the cats need attention too, but the sitters do it all! They even provide pictures and email reports every day while we are away. I recommend them highly!”
— Freda L.”
“Amanda and Chris have made this long stint the Best Ever for our boys and by default us too!! We are so impressed and delighted! We will be with you for any upcoming trips! We thank you for the combination of caring, professionalism and technology to create this awesome experience. Your pictures are unbelievably good and show [our kitties] are relaxed and happy!” — Noel M.
Thank you for all your help with [our pup]!! You and your team are amazing and such good people. We appreciate you!!!” — Ashley C.
“I was very leery of going on vacation because of our elderly cat. I had Wags come and Mel, my cat, was instantly in love. The daily pictures are such a nice touch,they let me know he was feeling loved. She even sent pictures of our fish. I love Wags and highly recommend them for your fur family.” — Deborah M.”
“Our dogs mean the world to us and we have had wonderful experiences using Chris and her staff. We have used her services for vacations and for times when we had to be out of house too long (hip replacement surgery). The sitters always send us updates and photos which are so comforting. They even sent a photo of our cockatiel! We are praying that we will be able to hire them again ASAP.” —Deborah H.”
“We all love our fur babies, and its wonderful to know that Chris and her staff love them like we do. I’ve been using Glad Wags for about a year, and I’ve found the entire team to be very caring, professional, reliable, and trustworthy. I also love the app they use. It’s so easy! And the daily status updates, with all the awesome pictures, make me feel so good that I chose Glad Wags to care for my dog when I’m away.” — Ann-Marie H.
“Finding your pet sitting business makes me feel like I hit the jackpot.” —Kelli E.
““[Our cat] is happy and not stressed when we get back from our trips and settles right back into his routine. He looks super happy in all the pictures we receive. The write ups are thorough and give us a lot of peace of mind when we are traveling. I think the biggest thing for us is that we really don’t think about his care when we are away. We know you and your team will be there and do a great job with him.” — Mary S.”
“We love Chris and the Glad Wags team. Our furry family relied on them for some weekend stays and walks - they did a great job taking care of each pet! One thing that sets them apart from others (at least to me) was the initial assessment and meeting. Chris and one of her staff members came to us to meet us and our pets. It’s not just about loving animals, they are true professionals. They updated us with how things were going via the app/portal and our pets loved being taken care of at home (we either try to take our dogs when traveling to avoid boarding at the vet). Glad Wags is my go-to recommendation for loving, caring, pet professionals! I’ve had bad experiences with other companies, both private and social/app based. Meeting with Chris was easy and a good fit!” — Jenna A.”
Glad wags have been so wonderful to our pups Blu, Kahli and Kodi. They are loving and kind with our fur babies and I highly recommend them if you are in need a reliable pet sitter.” — Jennifer B.
“We just moved to LWR about 6 mos ago & did not know who to hire to care for our ‘zoo’ while we went out of town this summer. We have used them on 2 different occasions & they have completely exceeded our expectations. They send photos of the pets at every visit, a complete report on walks, potty breaks, behavior, etc. They are exceptional!” — Liz B.
“Aw where should I begin? When my grand-pup, Finn, and my daughter moved back home to attend college, we needed help from time to time. We knew it was the right fit from the very beginning when Chris came to our home for an interview. It was easy and she walked us through the app for scheduling walks. Finn is a mini Australian Shepherd full of energy and loves to pull on his leash to chase a squirrel up a tree. No matter when we call, Glad Wags is always available to have someone to come love on Finn and walk him if we’re not home. The pictures and email of their time together always make me smile. I would recommend Glad Wags all day long. We love them. Definitely trust them with our fur child.” — Pamela C.”
“Like most fur baby parents we pamper our pets. We only want the best for them. Because of work and travel outside of the area we have relied on Glad Wags to provide visits and care. We are over the top impressed with the visits, follow up, and communication. We highly recommend glad wags and feel like it is a family member checking in. Our pets are always loved, and thrilled to see Glad Wags walkers when we are away. And, we can relax knowing that they are well cared for. A++++ Service.” — Colleen M.”
“I work from home, so my dogs are accustomed to me being there most of the time. If I’m going to be gone for any length of time, I want someone trustworthy to come by, take them for a walk, and spend time with them. I interviewed several different services. What really sold me on Glad Wags is how Chris interacted with my dogs and how they reacted to her. She is really in tune with animals, so warm and patient with them, and her operation is very professional and 100-percent dependable. Glad Wags is fantastic!” —V.J. K.
““We would like to take the time to thank each and every one of your for caring for our dogs as much as we do! You have been professional and passionate and it’s clear to see the dogs adore you all. It definitely put us at ease knowing such an amazing team was caring for [our pups]! Wishing you all the best of luck!!” — Former Relocated Client”
“We have two small dogs and work 8+ hours a day. While we hate to leave them all day, we are comforted knowing that Glad Wags can stop in to walk and play with them as we need them. Our dogs absolutely adore the Glad Wags team. Glad Wags has been amazing about scheduling and very receptive and responsive to all communication. They use an online portal and/or an app to communicate, schedule, invoice, etc. It really makes the entire process super easy. as well as professional. Our favorite is getting the visit report, complete with some pictures of the visit and how the pups were doing that visit. I cannot recommend this company enough and love knowing my dogs can be cared for by trustworthy and passionate pet lovers!
— Greg B.”
““We have four dogs ranging in age from sixteen to a one-year-old puppy. Three of our dogs are rescues, and it takes them time to trust people. On her first visit, Chris earned the trust of all our dogs, even the most skittish. And, while we were away, I appreciated the regular updates, all the photos. We never had to worry, because we always knew exactly how they were doing. I can’t say enough about Glad Wags: wonderful people and a great company!” — Valerie A.”
“I have been using Chris and her team since January and I couldn’t be more pleased. They take the BEST care of my two dogs. I get real time reports on when they visit and pictures that document their visit. It is very comforting to know how well they are being taken care of and treated. I know my dogs look forward to every visit with them. They have gone above and beyond and have even been reliable on last minute requests and cancellations. I wouldn’t look anywhere else for a pet sitter.” —Emily C.”
“I met with Chris and her team and immediately had them helping us. They have a wonderful app that lets you request services at specific times and days of the week. They also snap pictures and give specific updates, even letting you know ‘who did their business,’ if you know what I mean. They respond to all of my messages and are very observant with their individualized care for each animal. I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation.” — Jessica W.
““We prefer a dog sitter that will stay overnight, which is not always easy to find, and we needed to find someone fast. I’m so happy we found Glad Wags. They were absolutely fantastic with our dogs, providing excellent care, and sending us pictures and updates every day. Booking is simple, prices are reasonable, and they are extremely trustworthy. We’re very pleased and will continue to trust Glad Wags to watch our pets when we travel.”
— Christina L.”
“We will never use anyone else, you girls are the BEST!!!” — Tracy K.
”We have used Glad Wags on many occasions from daily dog walks to an extended overnight stay at a Glad Wags sitter’s home. We can’t say enough about how exceptional the service was and how well they treated our Golden Retriever Bailey. We recommend them to everyone we know and will continue to use them for all our dog sitting needs!” — Christine F.
“We have used Glad Wags for the last 3 years to care for our cats when we are out of town. We were very impressed with the initial consultation, when they really took time to meet our cats and get to know their unique “quirks”. One cat hates people, but for some reason loves the caregiver! They send us reports and pictures each time they visit, which gives us a sense of comfort while we are away from home. We do have cameras in our home and delight to see them playing with our Cats and taking meticulous care of the multiple litter boxes. Very reasonable prices! We also love the online bill paying service. I encourage you to support this local small business!”— Beth T.”
““I travel quite a bit for business, sometimes without much warning, so I need a pet-sitting service that I can trust and that can be available on short notice. I got all of that and more with Glad Wags. They send me photos and detailed reports after every visit, and I love the mobile app, which makes communication, scheduling, and payment a breeze.” — Jennifer W.”
““Since meeting with Chris & Amanda we have had Glad Wags come to the house to take care of our little ones a few times. I would give them 100 stars if I was able. Their detail process of caring is amazing. Everything I need to know is on the app & when they visit they send a summary & photos which we love! Everyone is amazing at Glad Wags & highly recommend u used them and you’ll understand how awesome they are…” —Edward C.”
“I read so many positive reviews, and I gave [Glad Wags] a call. Chris and her team came over to meet our dogs, and it went very well. We also have a hedgehog and a bearded dragon that need to be cared for. They even hand-fed the lizard kale, which he loves! They really go the extra mile. Every visit, I get updated on the app, which is the best thing. They really love animals, and you know that they are in good hands.” — Tina W.
“I never expected to feel so in tune with my dogs while away! I appreciated all the informative updated and helpful suggestions from you and your team. You provide such a comforting and helpful service!!!” —Bridget D.
““Glad Wags has been a godsend for me! I initially hired Glad Wags to watch my dogs while I was out of town for Christmas. I was nervous, because I miss them so much while I am gone. But Chris and her team are wonderful. My dogs took to them right away. Thanks to the daily photos and detailed reports they shared, I could see how happy my dogs were, and that put my mind at ease. Recently, I had wrist surgery, so I called Glad Wags to walk my dogs as I heal. Once again, they have been amazing, and the app makes setting appointments so easy!” — Sara B.”
“Wonderful professionals who really care! I needed help taking care of my Australian Labradoodle, Tillie. Our groomer recommended Glad Wags. Chris & her team are amazing!

They are absolutely awesome!”—Jeannie S.

“We had to take an unexpected trip out of state and needed someone to look after our cats. We needed to leave the next day, thinking we would be gone 5 days. We ended up being gone 2 weeks.

There’s nothing better than knowing your pets are being cared for by people who love them like you do.” — Sara S.
“My wife Christina and I can’t say enough about Chris and her wonderful team at Glad Wags. They are incredibly professional and reliable.

“From the initial interview with Chris & her team, I knew I was dealing with a professional agency. I did move forward with having the Glad Wags sitters care for my beloved pup, Luna. I was so impressed with the agency that I too joined their team and found that on both sides, both client & employee, the team was the best!! Sincere, caring people from Chris to all of her team members. I have recommended Glad Wags to friends and they too have had excellent experiences with Glad Wags all the way from scheduling visits to their dependable, loving care. I highly recommend Glad Wags to care for your family pets, dogs/cats/birds/reptiles/ hedgehogs ,you name it, they love them all!!” — Bonnie L.

“Chris visited our kitties while we were out of town for a week and provided THE BEST care for our fur babies. Chris went above and beyond the food and litter boxes by playing with our crew, petting and loving on them and providing them lanai time if they wanted it. Her comprehensive daily reports, complete with awesome, fun photos, really set our minds at ease that the “kids” were alright. We’ve already requested future services and highly recommend Chris and her team. Such a great and professional business!” —Patty N.
