Judy is simply amazing. I interviewed several dog trainers and she blew me away with her knowledge, patience, and kindness. Not only does she provide training and walking, but she also bakes awesome treats and our dog just loves them. Judy knows her stuff – if you’re looking for training, walking, sitting, look no further. You won’t be disappointed. Highly recommended!!!
Stacey A., Feb 23, 2022Judy is so amazing. My dog is pretty fearful and she was so patient with him. Gained his trust overtime and really let him grow, now every time she comes over he is so excited to see her! Judy is so good at understanding different kinds of dog personalities and is so easy to work with. Highly recommend.
Wolfgang T., Feb 22, 2022We searched far and wide for a cat sitter we could trust with our kitty and also with our home.. Judy is by far the best! Rare gem!
She comes 2x daily, and sends the BEST videos and status updates. Her attention to detail sets her apart from every other sitter I’ve tired.. making sure the house isn’t too hot, or cleaning a bit of cat vomit off the new sofa!
She’s the utmost professional (very responsive, super reliable) AND a very kind-hearted cat whisperer.
I can’t thank Judy enough for going above and beyond for our kitty cat! ♥️🙏
Julianne C., Feb 12, 2022We are so happy to have found Judy. She watched our new puppy at our home for a week and we got regular updates during the day, photos of how our girl was doing, and a nightly progress report on things they worked on together. We felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of our pup! Since then we have used her several times and every time she leaves our dog is so much more responsive! We call Judy the dog whisperer! We are very grateful and our pup loves her!
Emily O., Nov 22, 2021Judy is knowledgeable, skilled, and communicative when caring for our pit bull. She provides photo updates and checks in about our dog’s behavior, demeanor, and interaction with other dogs. It is nice to be able to trust Judy to care competently for our large dog who can occasionally be reactive to other animals.
Kristen C., Nov 20, 2021I adopted a Golden pup., but at six months old he was growling at me. I hired Judy because she seem like she was the most patient and she explained everything. We did five sessions with Judy and the last one we did was walking on the strand and Charlie was so well behaved. So proud! Recommend!
Tost, Nov 18, 2021I hired Judy for my anxious pup Luna to help with daily walks. After meeting us, she offered all kinds of helpful suggestions to help with leash walking and a plan to have her finally out of her crate. The leash walking tips were incredible! After only a few minutes, I couldn’t believe the difference! Now I feel confident to walk her and we all enjoy the walks! I can tell she really cares about dogs, and goes above and beyond to make all of our lives better! Her follow up email summaries are so useful as well! Thanks Judy! And Luna says thanks too!
Donna C, Nov 15, 2021Judy is the best. Helped train Henry as a pup and Cocoa as an adult. They are now best friends. She is a very reliable dog walker and house sitter.
Maryjane E, June 19, 2019We have used Judy countless times and she is always amazing!! We have two big dogs, and trust her completely. Definitely recommend to anyone!
Adele R., June 19, 2019Judy is a very special person. She’s incredibly dedicated to the well-being of your pet. She’s not the typical leash off and off to the next client. She’s caring, loving and nurturing. Hands down an exceptional dog whisperer and pet handler.
Natalie M., June 15, 2019Thank you so much for everything! It was so nice to know that my babies were in good hands. Thanks for the updates and pictures! Will definitely use you and recommend you in the future!
Susan T., May 20, 2019Fantastic! Extremely attentive to our pup’s needs. Can’t wait to work with Judy again
Doug L., May 16, 2019Judy was great! Our dogs immediately took to her and she went above and beyond to ensure the dogs were well cared for, and a fun time for them as well. Thanks Judy!
Kurtis K., May 6, 2019Judy is truly fantastic, and my dog, Pingu, just loves her. She takes time to get to know your dog, almost as if it was her own animal. She suggested taking Pingu to the dog park to help her socialize with other dogs, when she noticed Pingu was guarded-especially around larger breeds. Pingu is now happy and playful, and loves being around other animals. Judy has arranged playdates for Pingu, and not only walks and does doggy park visits, but plays ball with her too. It is wonderful to find a person who cares as much as you so about your pet. As a new dog owner, she has given my numerous tips on what to feed and how to exercise my lab/greyhound pup. I never expected such great service, and I could not be more pleased. Thank you Judy!
Kristina F., April 27, 2019My husband and I were new in the area and needed a dog walker for our two Great Danes in a hurry. Judy came to our rescue and our pups love her! I always have piece of mind knowing our dogs are looked after and cared for. Not only can she handle two dogs of that size, but she has been super patient helping to train our puppy with some social issues. She is always professional and dependable. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Adele R., April 21, 2019I can’t begin to describe how amazing Judy is! You can immediately tell that she absolutely loves all animals and truly enjoys being with them. She has the perfect knack for warming up to them and it’s incrsible how quickly my animals took to her and were acting like they’d known her for months! She asks all the right questions showing that she takes this very seriously and clearly cares about my pets’ happiness as much as I do – which is a ton!! She’s patient, warm, super responsible – beyond expectations. Way beyond. Can’t imagine anyone could be better. She will take all of your cares away whether she’s just taking your dog for a walk (she gave our dog better walk than I normally do!) or for an overnight I’m sure she would be amazing – I will definitely hire her for our next vacation! I would definitely recommend her 110%!!
Susan T., Feb 21, 2019Judy is the only sitter I will use for my dog Yogi. She always gives more than expected. One time she kept Yogi most of day taking him with her to run errands even when I didnt pay her for that. She is compassionate. Thanks again Judy for making me feel at peace when I”m out of town!
Landon G., Jan 28, 2019I can’t say enough about how absolutely wonderful Judy is! Not only was she kind enough to accommodate a last minute same day walk request when I was ill, she showed a level of professionalism and deep understanding of dogs that immediately put myself and my wary-with-strangers dog at ease. I would look forward to taking a trip just for the opportunity to have her dog sit while I was away, and hope to entice her back to Tucson as she is a rare treasure indeed! Thank you Judy!
Kathleen C., Dec 27, 2018Judy was fantastic with both my maltese who were still traumatized from our move. She became their best pal and I felt safe knowing she was loving them and treating them the same way I would! Can’t wait to have her back.
Kimberly Y., Dec 19, 2018I was very impressed with Judy caring for my dog Waco. She spent a lot of time with my little dog and is exactly what he needed. Judy kept me informed and sent me pictures while she was with him. I am very happy with the care she provided.
Joan S., Dec 16, 2018Best dog walker. Judy was prompt, asked all the right questions. Can tell she is a pro. I watched her on my home camera, and I can tell my lab Camper was well cared for. She even stayed a little longer. Loved the pics and video too! Complete peace of mind. Will use her again.
Doug C., Nov 17, 2018Judy is wonderful and my dog took to her loving personality immediately. My dog is very shy and skeptical of new folks but she was comfortable with Judy from the get-go. I was really in a jam, found Judy on Rover, and she worked me into her schedule to accommodate my dilemma on the fly. She is just great. Extremely prompt (showed up exactly on time) and keep me in the loop during her visit with great photos to boot. I plan on utilizing Judy’s services regularly. She is just awesome and I highly recommend her. Just a real doll.
Sandra D., Oct 28, 2018Judy was amazing! She sent regular updates, photos and videos. She is an incredible dog trainer and worked with our pup on some areas in need of improvement. She even sent me home with a new training schedule. She was very understanding and accommodating for our “high maintenance” pup.
Lexy & Charlie B., Jul 11, 2017Excellent care!!!! Judy boarded my Rhodesian Ridgeback while my family headed north for Christmas. He received excelllent care as well as lots of love and attention from Judy and her family. He loved his walks at the beach! Judy stayed in contact with us the entire time and sent us regular pictures of our happy dog. I would highly recommend Judy to anyone looking to give their dog a terrific vacation! Lori and Ric M. (And Bodie!)
Lori M., Dec 26, 2016Having recently moved to California, finding a dog sitter was on my list of things to do. I looked at several profiles on DogVacay and decided to give Judy a try. She spent a lot of time with us on the meet and greet. Our dogs have not been around many humans since moving, and Judy was incredibly sweet and patient while getting to know the gang. She asked great questions and answered any we had. Judy is a natural with dogs, and I would not hesitate to use her again!
Diane G., Jan 5, 2015Judy watched JingXing for 8 days and what a challenge. Our dog was so stressed with our trip that she gave Judy some very big challenges and Judy overcame all and my pooch had a safe and fun visit. Lots of exercise and I love the daily updates. We came home to a relaxed and happy pooch!
Michelle S., Jul 5, 2014As far as she’s told me, my dog had a great time with Judy. She came home tired and clean. They went for hikes, walks and even for a swim in the ocean. Judy had a big back yard filled with tennis balls, which is great since, my girl loves nothing more than playing catch. Judy sent some great pictures of Teja on her Dog Vacay and was accommodating when holiday traffic forced me to arrive 3 hours late to pick up my pooch.
Dana W., Dec 3, 2013If you are hiring Judy as a pet sitter you will find someone who has an amazing way to treat dogs and people . She is loving ,affectionate, playful and knows how to put the dogs in a safe yet ruled environment. Great skills to train and teach tricks to dogs and an easy way with the humans.
Anonymous U., Oct 3, 2012Judy has taken great care of our dog for over 5 years. She has been both a petsitter and housesitter. Our dog is very fond of her. She takes him on great walks and gives him lots of loving. We highly recommend her.
Stan D., Oct 2, 2012Judy watched our golden retriever named Duke. He loved Judy and always loved going to stay with her. Judy is fun, attentive, caring and takes dog sitting very seriously. Judy texted me pictures and videos of Duke’s activities which made me feel comforted that he was being well taken care of. I highly recommend Judy to watch your family pet. She is great!
