Sticks and Bones

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. I called them twice over three days and left messages with no return call. I had high hopes from the other reviews but I was sadly let down.

Although I am always excited for upcoming trips there’s also always a nagging weariness in the back of my head preceding leaving town. And that has been the fact that my little sweetheart cavalier Isabelle would have to be left behind. Finding reliable pet care services can be a chore especially considering that this stranger will be in total control of your best friend’s well being for an extended amount of time. For someone like myself who has a hard time leaving my dry cleaning with unknowns this prospect can be terrifying. But after meeting Pam, the owner of Sticks and Bones, my worries were put at ease. I found her services through a basic web search on top of the fliers stuffed in my mailbox. Sticks and Bones serves strictly downtown residents making it seem like an obvious choice for me and Izzy. After an initial phone call Pam came over to meet Isabelle the day before I was to depart, as well as get a key and paperwork. She was very friendly with Izzy and I could tell had a way with animals. She assured me things would run smoothly as I described my pups normal schedule. I was gone for 4 days and came back to a happy healthy pooch, just as I had hoped. I have since used Sticks and Bones for overnight trips and have never had a problem. With the over abundance of dog people downtown, that can be found strolling around Lake Eola or relaxing at sidewalk patios, I can imagine a good pet service would be a necessity for most. Luckily I found one and even based downtown so readily available for us doggy lovers.
