I highly recommend Valerie and David with Comfy Pets! I can't say enough great things about them! We just got back from our trip, the first without our puppy, and I wanted to write this review immediately. Ever since our first interaction with Valerie and David, we were impressed. They're so nice, organized, professional, experienced, and thoughtful with all their questions, paperwork, and preparations. We were nervous about going away, and they put us at ease immediately. They answered all our questions, and let us visit so we could meet in person and our dog could see what his "camp" would be like. Our puppy took to them right away and felt immediately comfortable in their home. We knew this was going to be the perfect arrangement for him! Everything was like an answer to our prayers! They have a large fenced-in yard, allow only 1 other dog at the same time (and it was also a small one), the dogs are able to roam throughout most of the house without having to be in cages, they'll allow your pet's toys and blankets, and they'll even feed him the special way we sometimes have to. Valerie also regularly texted and emailed updates with pictures to let us know how our puppy was doing, which made us so comforted and relieved when we were gone. We can't say enough great things about Comfy Pets! We're so grateful to them and will totally use them every time we go away. They are amazing!

Val and Dave are the best! Our dog Cassie has been boarding with them for the past 6-7 years and she always loved staying with them whenever we had to leave her behind. We use to travel quite often, but luckily Val and Dave were always able to accommodate a place for Cassie during those days. It was such a relief to know she was able to stay in a loving home when separated from us. We were so lucky to find them all those years ago because they really are the best! Now that we're moving to the west coast, we're sad that Cassie won't get to stay with them again. Hopefully we'll be able to find someone just as good where we're moving, but Val and Dave's care will be hard to beat!

David walked our dog Olaf on and off for several years when we were living nearby. He was both incredibly flexible and incredibly reliable. Based on our previous experiences, either of those qualities are hard enough to find in a dog walker, let alone both. He also had no problem handling Olaf, a 55-lb American Staffordshire terrier who loves to pull on his leash. When we saw them interact, David got warmer welcomes from Olaf than we did when we came home! Olaf also stayed with Valerie and David on one or two occasions and had a great time. We have since moved out of Maryland, and as we were trying to sell our house, David came to the rescue one more time for us. When our real estate agent somehow misplaced the lockbox key just minutes before an open house, David brought our old house key on short notice. We miss him!

The money for the ordered goods is collected from the credit card, but the goods are not delivered. Look out!! Do not order from this company, it is probably a fraud!

Valerie stepped in at the last minute when we became alarmed over numerous troubling incidents at our vet's boarding facility. Our little Tonkinese boy was chronically ill and received visits from Valerie three times a day. Valerie provided unparalleled care–she would rock him and sing to him! Bennie passed away in August. The following day we unexpectedly were given the opportunity to adopt two frightened rescues out of Baltimore. Although Oliver and Thea are amazing, intelligent, sweet and fully acclimated, strangers can still be a problem, so a kennel situation would be quite stressful for them. We know that we don't have to worry while vacationing when Comfy Pet Sitters is on the job. We are confident that Valerie will win them over as she is a "cat muse." (NOTE: Valerie also cares for our Sugar Glider, Hannah.) Valerie's rates are fair and affordable. Animal care is Valerie's full-time job; we don't have to worry that our kittens (who feed around 6pm) will have to wait until after 9pm to be fed. (If your pet sitter has a full-time job, your animals may not receive the care that is needed on your pets' schedules.) Needless to say, Comfy Pet Sitters is our 5-star choice for our fur babies!

If you have a dog or a small pet like a parrot, I recommend Comfy Pets. Both Val and David are caring individuals and take fantastic care of my parrot. Our Quaker parrot is very fickle and true to his species he is very selective to whom he bonds or allows to care for him. We used to take him to a pet store that boarded parrots. We would take him home and we can tell he had a horrible time. He would bite us and himself. Since making the change and going with Comfy Pets, I am much more comfortable with leaving him and confident in his care. Val and David are very warm to all of the pets they watch. They talk to my parrot (and dogs under their care from my observation) much like we do at home. Val and David get the key point, our pet is a member of our family that we are entrusting our loved one's wellbeing to them. This is quite evident how they treat my bird. Our bird is always in excellent spirits when we take him home. And, I am happy to say he is never bitey towards us nor himself. We think he enjoys his stay as much as we enjoy our vacations. In our house we refer to Comfy Pets as a "birdie bed and breakfast." For the reasons mentioned above and others, I highly recommend Comfy Pets and gladly give this business 5 stars!
