Client Love

 And now a word from my happy clients!

My mission is to Earn Trust by providing Peace of Mind and Quality Care to those who are most cherished – our pets. I accomplish this through consistent care, expert follow-through and adherence to the principles of professionalism.

At the conclusion of every pet sit I ask for an Evaluation.  Please take a look at comments from some happy Wagging Tail clients!

Ellie, White Golden Retriever

I have valued the peace of mind, knowing that my dog will get a good, fun visit to help her during the day. Ken (the primary dog walker) is a gentle, patient personality with my pup.

Robert W., Walnut Creek

Rosie and Buddy, American bull dogs

“I have used Carolynne/Wagging Tail Pet Sitting several times now when I have been out of town. I totally trust her with my dogs and I never worry. She provides excellent service and texts me if there are any issues. Carolynne also checks mail, waters plants, brings trash to the curb and ensures my dogs have playtime. Carolynne leaves me with a written summary of her work. Carolynne/Wagging Tail is extremely reliable and dependable. I give her the highest recommendation!”

Joel N., Pittsburg

Molly and Posey, Lab Mixes

“Wagging Tail Pet Sitting has cared for my pets for eight years.  My current dog, Posey, is a handful and Carolynne and Ken keep her active and happy with playtime and daily walks. When I travel, Carolynne stays in my home with her.  Her anxiety level, and mine, are low because I know she will always be well cared for. I spoil my pets and Wagging Tail does, too! You will be very happy with the care and attention your pets receive from Wagging Tail Pet Sitting.”

Susan McD., Pittsburg

Sadie and Gretel, Dachshunds 

“We were so happy to find Wagging Tail Pet Sitting — we had two senior miniature dachshunds at home and were very wary of leaving them in the care of anyone but the immediate family. But we needed to attend a weekend wedding in Monterey, and took a chance after meeting Carolynne, and were so happily surprised at the care they gave our dogs. They made timely, arranged house visits to feed, water, relieve and play with our dogs. They are very kind people (our dogs agreed), the price was more than reasonable and we would recommend their services to friends, family and neighbors any day. (It’s so good to have peace of mind and one less thing to worry about with our four-legged family members.) Thank you, Carolynne & Ken; and best wishes for your continued success.”

Melissa W., Pittsburg

Abu and Thor, Bully Dogs 

“Ken and Carolynne are trustworthy, reliable, flexible and dog magnets! They cared for my pups, Abu and Thor, for over a year until we moved out of the City of Pittsburg. My pups absolutely love them and look forward to either one of them for their walks and/or check ins. Without their care, help and flexibility I wouldn’t have thrived in my career. While we have moved to San Francisco (and outside their area), they still reach out to check in on us! I recommend their business to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy people who would love your dogs like their own. I do not trust anyone with my pups outside of my family, but Wagging Tail is part of our pack because they truly exemplify exceptional service. Thank you for all you do!

Daisy, the American Bull Dog; Coco, the Guinea Pig; Two Fish

“This is the best pet service we have ever used.  Carolynne is reliable and caring.  She even does little extra things for the pets (like buy water bottles for the guinea pigs).  We know they are getting as much love as when we’re home!”

Stacy and John L., Martinez

Barney & Stella, Tabby Cats, and about 50 competition-bred Pigeons

“It’s well worth the peace of mind to know that our two cats – and a whole loft of pigeons – are well cared for when we are gone.”  (Matt raises pure-bred pigeons for competition and has the prize ribbons to show for it!)

Matt M., Concord

Buster Posey, Gray Cat

“Carolynne is a devoted pet sitter! She is a true professional. Carolynne is reliable; I never worry about our cat. She is full service, including playtime with Buster; he loves going after the laser light and feather toys!  Our cat was very happy and content when we arrived home.”

Lori T., Walnut Creek

Reina, Kitty

“Carolynne makes me feel at ease when I am away from home. My cat, Reina, was happy and well cared for, which was evident upon my return home from vacation. Carolynne is an A+ pet sitter!”

Jon W., Walnut Creek

Blaze and Gracie, Dogs

“Carolynne provided overnight care and companionship for my pups, allowing them to keep their normal routine. My two pups were happy to have a friend in their own home, and so was I!”

Jeanie C., Brentwood

Kirby, Chocolate Labrador 

“Carolynne provided reliable and caring overnight care for my Labrador, Kirby.  She is very dependable. Carolynne goes above and beyond to make sure that Kirby and I are happy!” 

Yvonne Z., Concord

Mookie, Jay, Suki, Abby and Jill; Pomeranians 

“Carolynne cares about the wellbeing of my pets. My numerous dogs have some special needs and she took care to address them all. Carolynne was in close communication with me during my trip. My dogs were healthy and happy!” 

Betty S., Martinez

Simon, Tabby Kitty 

“I have used Wagging Tail Pet Sitting Service several times and have been very pleased with the service. This last time that was especially true. The morning I was to leave on my trip my cat was vomiting and might be ill. With only an hour before needing to leave for the airport, I called Carolynne. She immediately began to outline a plan of action for the care of my cat, including a visit to the veterinarian if necessary. This allowed me to leave on my trip feeling confident that he would receive the care he needed. It all turned out well — thanks to Carolynne. I will definitely continue to use her service.”

Paula A., Pittsburg

Missy Pooh & Rufus, Kitties

“Carolynne does a superb job. She went above and beyond what was originally planned by checking in with a friend (who had the first part of the pet sit) to ensure a smooth transition. I am very particular about who cares for my pets, and I have complete faith in Carolynne. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, high quality, dependable pet sitting service.”

Peggy S., Pittsburg

“Rescue” Gold Fish, wild birds

“Carolynne exceeded our expectations! I liked the way she provided me with her insurance and bond information at our briefing. I felt at ease knowing that our pets were cared for properly.”

Georgette H., Martinez
