We cannot exclaim enough how much we’ve been pleased with Homeward bound services. The team has been dependable, trustworthy, reasonably priced, considerate, sensitive and deeply caring for our dog for many years, dating back to when she was a young dog. We highly recommend this service for taking care of your pet, particularly when you’re away at work or with other obligations. Our dog never merely got a walk around the block. She had long and rewarding outings with Homeward bound.

When my dog developed health and behavior problems later in life, I wasn't sure I'd be able to go on vacation again because he was such a handful. Thankfully May was more than equipped to handle my difficult dog. She was so understanding with his behavior challenges. She handled his medication while I was gone, and adjusted her care to his declining mobility as he slowly lost his ability to walk to to degenerative myelopathy. He and my partner's dog were always so thrilled to see her and we felt great leaving them in her care. She makes sure they're loved and happy while we're away.

May and her family are absolutely amazing! She cares for my senior pup, my wild one-year-old puppy, and my very particular cat. My cat usually hates everyone but me, yet somehow, May worked her magic and earned a spot in Vesper’s exclusive club! May is incredibly attentive to every detail and the unique needs of each of my pets. I truly can’t recommend her enough. Thanks to her, I can travel for work or fun with complete peace of mind, knowing my babies are safe, loved, and well cared for.

We have worked with May over the years in many capacities, and she is incredible - an animal whisperer for sure!! She loves every aspect of their care! We first called her to come in as a “dog trainer” to help us with our new pup - before she left the dynamic had already changed, Butterscotch was receptive - May and Homeward Bound truly changed our lives with our pup and 10 years later we still use the things she taught US!! Our family and our animals LOVE her - we highly recommend her for any and ALL your pet needs!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ May with Homeward Bound is truly world-class — the gold standard of pet sitters. She’s thorough, considerate, and completely trustworthy, taking care of every detail so we can travel worry-free. Our pets adore her, our home is always just as I left it (sometimes even tidier!), and her rates are refreshingly reasonable. In short, May delivers five-star service with heart — and sets the bar impossibly high for everyone else in the business. 🐾✨ She was able to charm even Nancy Pants who can’t stand anyone but me 😻😻
