A Pet’s Best Friend

My husband and I moved to Colorado a few months ago and don’t know anyone locally who can pet sit for us when we go out of town. We use
for our dog and I wanted someone to come to the house to watch our cat and bring in mail, etc. I was kind of wary of a pet sitting service because I’ve never used one. I found a Pet’s Best Friend here on Unilocal and decided to set up a consultation. Melissa (the owner) got in touch with me right away (very professional and a good first impression!). We set up a consultation meeting and I was really impressed. Melissa showed me a sheet with info. about her pet sitters so I was able to know who would be coming into my home. They use a lock box to hold your house key, so it never leaves your property. The lockbox is yours to keep and the fee is very reasonable (it was $ 10).
Melissa followed up with me a few days before we left to confirm our dates.
I was really anxious about leaving my cat, especially since we had a snow storm the weekend we were gone. I had two pet sitters (one weekend, one weekdays) — Susan and Holli. Susan and Holli BOTH were so great about texting me daily to give me an update and let me know all was well. The updates were such a relief and allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worrying about my cat or the mail sitting out.
Upon coming home, the house looked good, mail was brought in, kitty was happy, and lots of detailed notes were left by the sitters.
I could not be more happy with the service provided by A Pet’s Best Friend. I will use them every time we go out of town for our kitty. The rates were extremely reasonable as well. Thank you Melissa (and Susan and Holli) for such great service!

This has been a great addition to our dog’s life. We have someone steady and knowledgable to come in daily and if anything should come up, that sitter has back-​up as do we! Melissa and her team have managed to balance being very personal with us and being very professional at the same time. Everything from our sitter taking a day off and having someone right there to cover to our dog having an injury and activity restrictions to u having changes in our schedule — these guys have been pro and compassionate at every turn. Best of all, when we come home from work and school, our dog is comfortable, happy to see us, but also playful and not anxious about us having been away. We hope to keep working with Melissa and her sitters for a LOOOOOOONG time!

Melissa and her team go above and beyond! It’s such a relief knowing that our dog, Halston, and our 2 cats are in such good hands! We love the notes we get each day, it’s as if we were there even though we’re working! We’ve used APBF for both daily dog walks/​pet checks and while away on vacation and have zero hesitation. Melissa and Kerry, we’re so very glad you’re around to take care of our fur babies!

We went away for weekend trip and have a brand new cat that at the time was not prefectly settled into the house.
Everything from the initial interview, to the actual pet sitting, and the follow up report was professional.
I would have no problems recommending them to friends.

Melissa is a wonderful and dedicated business owner and loves all animals. She and her pet sitters are highly trustworthy and I recommend them to anyone looking for awesome pet care!

Melissa and her team are top notch; truly as good as it gets. They have become an extension of my family caring for my 2 dogs with daily walks and are always there for me when I travel for overnight visits. I have had to call last minute several times and they always have me covered. They treat my dogs as if they are their own. In addition they get the mail, water the plants, and just keep an eye on things. When I travel I know the dogs and the house are well cared for. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality pet care with a service that can be trusted.

Melissa and all of the employees over at A Pet’s Best Friend are very professional and reliable. They always do a great job and never have to worry about our furry friends when were at work or out of town. They all are very caring all always bring extra treats and gifts for our pets. It’s the little things that count, right? A Pet’s Best Friend does a great job at going the extra mile. I would recommend them to anyone in need of walks, pet sitting or general help out with their animals!
