"Glenn and I were searching for a dog-sitter for quite some time. Some of the qualities we were searching for in a dog-sitter were: professionalism, responsible, reliable, trustworthy, insured, experienced, dependable. Also, someone who knows Pet First Aid. We found ALL those qualities in Rose Castillo, owner of Lazy Day Pet Services. We would highly recommend Lazy Day Pet Services because peace of mind is invaluable when it comes to your family."

"When we first met Rose from Lazy Day Pet Services, we immediately felt comfortable with her sound approach to getting a feel for our two boxers. She asked all of the right questions in a structured and analytical way from personality/behavioral traits to health, and food related topics. Scheduling her initial visit already proved easy and she was flexible and helpful in accommodating both day and time.

At no point during her visit did we feel that Rose was in this business to make a "quick and easy buck". Her positive attitude and obvious natural instinct and love for animals made her an immediate winner in our assessment (and we tend to be very critical when it comes to people we entrust our loved boxers). Oh, and most importantly, the dogs love her too!

We went through many options in the past when going on vacations or taking shorter weekend escapes, and most of them turned out to be from just okay to completely unacceptable. We have now found our permanent solution with Rose. She took great pride in calling us and giving us updates on the status of our boxers. She pointed out food consumption, playing habits and general demeanor of our treasured pets and at the end left us a detailed log on what she had done in terms of feeding, walks and play time.

Rose is a winner and we are huge fans! If you have pets, you have nothing to worry about when leaving them in her care. If you don't have pets and always worried about what to do when you go on trips or vacation, well, now you don't have that excuse either."

"Lazy Day Pet Services has been a lifesaver for me more times than I can count. Rose is always there when I need her! I can't tell you how many times I have called from work with a last minute visit...Lazy Day has never let me down. Vacations are much more enjoyable now that I don't have to leave Shelby in a kennel.

They are wonderful with Shelby, and they help me out by taking her to the groomer and the vet. I recommend Lazy Day Pet Services to everyone I know with a pet. Give them a call, you will be so happy that you did."
