Bloomington Pet Pals didn't just walk our pups, but played with them and enjoyed them as much as
we do. The photos they took and sent to us on our return had our pups in all of their favorite poses
and places "It was so great to return from our trip and 1) have our pups (Lucy and Desi - our
Westies) at home. I highly recommend Bloomington Pet Pals to anyone who loves their pets and
hates to take them to the kennel." -Virginia Metzger

“We feel so fortunate to have Bloomington Pet Pals looking after our dear dog Kelley. Diane and Ann
have a special way with pets. Kelley truly looks forward to their visit each day. Diane and Ann go the
extra mile – they don't just walk our dog and dash out, but stick around the house afterward for
playtime. We have a hectic travel schedule and it’s so reassuring to know that both our dog and
house are in the hands of such caring and trustworthy people as Ann and Diane. We are absolutely
delighted.”

"I never thought anyone could be as considerate and caring of my dog as I was! But Bloomington Pet Pals
treats Cinder as well (if not better!) than I do! I hate leaving my dog at home while I am away and the guilt
often tainted my trips. Cinder usually came back sick after I boarded her and took days to return to her old
self. When I return home from trips after she has been taken care of by Pet Pals, she is happy, healthy,
and her crazy self. It’s like I never left. They have gotten to know the very numerous quirks of Cinder and
adjust their time with her to fit her needs and personality. They don’t just come and do a standard walk
and go through the motions, but give Cinder personalized visits that vary with her needs - whether she
needs exercise, cuddling, or play. My dog can be unpredictable and aggressive towards other dogs,
which always makes me nervous to leave her with someone else. Pet Pals is exceptional at dealing with
her and I have no question that they can handle Cinder. The security in having trustworthy, dependable
people coming into my home is invaluable."

Bloomington Pet Pals has been a life saver. Due to hours away from home, I was hesitant in getting a
pet. When I was lucky enough to get Petunia (Tunie), I wanted her to still have human contact when I
was away from home. We were so lucky to meet Diane and Bloomington Pet Pals. Tunie looks forward
to her walks with Diane and especially her “treats” and belly rubs. Tunie also gets very scared during
thunderstorms. Diane is so caring and gives her special attention during our Indiana weather.
Bloomington Pet Pals has been very flexible with my schedule and this helps to ensure Petunia gets
the attention she deserves. Thanks Bloomington Pet Pals!

"We were able to have a relaxing time over the weekend only because our kids - er dogs, Jake,
Molly and Foxy - were taken care of 'like family' by Bloomington Pet Pals. Our experiences with
using kennels have been very stressful over the past several years and so we have elected to stay
home wondering how we would ever get away again. Bloomington Pet Pals loves animals and it
shows with the way they handled our dogs; personalized as if they were watching over their own
rhinestone collar... $500, but for us the Peace of Mind from Bloomington Pet Pals...Priceless."

"I have to travel quite a lot for work and this means I need someone to care for my lovely cat
Ellis while I'm away. I'm so relieved to have found Bloomington Pet Pals as I know that I can
rely on Ann not just to make sure that Ellis has food and water but also that she has company
and someone to play with every day. I can tell when I come home that Ellis is relaxed and I
really appreciate that Ann makes sure my special cat who loves human company feels happy
and secure even when I'm not there. It makes the stress of travelling much easier knowing
Ann is looking after things at home and is on email or can be phoned to check all is well. Many
thanks for all you do! - Rebecca Barthelmie

The last time I had to take Mia to a kennel, she came home with an infection. She was put on
four medications and I could tell she felt awful. The next time I had to leave town, I couldn't
bare to take Mia to boarding so I explored the Bloomington pet sitting options and
Bloomington Pet Pals really stood out. Ann came to our apartment to meet Mia and they
instantly hit it off. Ann showed genuine interest in befriending Mia and learning about her.
Now when I come home from travel, Mia is happy, healthy and ready to play. Now when I leave
town there is only one option for Mia, and that is Bloomington Pet Pals. - Allison Parman

"My pup Skye has had quite a bit of trouble with strangers in the past. She’s very timid and normally
doesn't trust anyone she hasn’t seen before. She usually gets so nervous that she just bolts from the
room and hangs out at the edge of the room like a wallflower. Not her first meeting with Diane,
however. Skye trusted Diane enough to get close for treats and sniffs. I was glad that they got along
so well because the next week Diane started visiting every work day to take Skye on a midday walk
and have a quick romp around home. In no time did Skye warm up to Diane; Skye is so comfortable
around Diane now that she will show Diane some of the tricks she knows. There might be three
people that Skye will do this for and Diane and I are two. I also constantly get good reports while I am
at work that things went well and that Skye is her well-behaved normal self. I’m extremely grateful for
the wonderful service that Bloomington Pet Pals provides because if it weren’t for them, my pup Skye
would have to endure much longer days." - Joe Schoen

"Our ten year old border collie mix is set in her ways. Boarding
created too much stress for her and was no longer an option. Even
a weekend away from home became difficult as we tried to find
reliable care for Rosie. Bloomington Pet Pals has been a life saver
for us. We can leave home knowing she is in good hands and will
be calm when we return. This is a professional service with a
personal touch; we would recommend Bloomington Pet Pals
without reservation."

"Bloomington Pet Pals is wonderful! Our three dogs could not be in better hands while we're away.
Ann showers our dogs with affection and special treats, and always documents the details of her
fun-filled visits in a journal. We also love the occasional photos that Ann sends of our crazy dogs at
play. We are very busy and have hectic schedules, and Ann has always gone above and beyond to
accommodate our needs, even on short notice. In addition to daily visits, we have also used
Bloomington Pet Pals' overnight service. In the past we have left our dogs at a kennel and have
never been fully satisfied with the condition in which they were returned to us. With Bloomington
Pet Pals, it was great to come home from a trip to find our dogs waiting for us, happy, relaxed, and
not smelling like a kennel. The staff at Bloomington Pet Pals are true professionals; they're
knowledgeable, passionate, they treat us like we're their only customers, and most of all, they love
animals and it really shows. We could not recommend their services more highly."

"Each time we travel the most difficult decision we make involves finding someone to care for
our beloved golden retriever. After trying many different dog care situations, it is very
apparent to us that it is extremely difficult to find someone who will care for a pet like a special
family member. Bloomington Pet Pals quickly became our "go to" experts after a wonderful trip
to Florida in which we were able to relax like never before --knowing that Dolly was receiving
top notch care. Ann has proven again and again that she goes the extra mile to see that Dolly
has the companionship she needs while her family is away --even refilling and freezing her
peanut butter bones so that she has something to look forward to each day. It is such a relief
to know that if a travel opportunity arises, we can call Ann anytime to care for Dolly knowing
that our dog will receive all the love and attention she'd enjoy if we were home!

"I recently moved to Bloomington and accepted a job that
requires me to travel frequently. One of my biggest
concerns was who would watch my two cats, George and
Ripley, whenever I was gone. I am so lucky to have found
Bloomington Pet Pals. I love getting email updates and
photos from Diane while I'm gone and the cats love the
care and attention they get from her. I can travel free of
worry because I know George and Ripley are well taken
care of."

"Traveling has many stresses. Bloomington Pet Pals is such a gift to our family, in that we
are never worried about the well-being of our cats. Valentine, Gingersnap and Mittens
are always glad when Diane visits. She gives each one the special attention they need,
makes sure that they are healthy, and adjusts how much they are fed if necessary. When
we return, our cats look great! They have been eating well (but not too much) and are
glad to see us, but not desperate for our immediate attention. We can tell that they have
had lots of loving attention during our absence. Bloomington Pet Pals brings us peace of
mind and makes our journeys more worry-free."

"I have been very happy with the service that Bloomington Pet Pals has provided for me
and my cat, Ripley. I sometimes have to go away for several weeks at a time, and without
Pet Pals I would really be at a loss -- I have had to leave pets at the kennel in the past,
and the results were not always happy. But Diane from Pet Pals has really gone out of her
way to make sure that Ripley has fared well, even when I’ve been gone for long periods.
She has spent extra time with him when I’m on a long trip. She brings him toys and catnip
(his favorite), plays with him, and makes sure he gets the belly rubs he loves. She has
even sent me email reports to let me know that his health is holding up, with pictures
included so I don’t get lonely myself. All in all, I would have to say that Pet Pals offers a
consistently high level of service. I am very glad to have found them."
