Prestigious Pets

We have used Prestigious Pets dog walking services for about 2 years now. Our dog Peyton loves her walkers. We have been out walking her ourselves, and have seen one of her walkers, and she has gone nuts. Peyton has had several medical issues over the last couple years, and our walkers have always been especially kind and accommodating to all her needs. Even to the point of cleaning up an accident recently. I love reading our daily notes discussing the details of Peyton’s walks. Prestigious Pets is a great option if you need help during the day with your loved ones!

Prestigious Pets Rocks! The sitter took great care of my 2 kitties while I was out of town for vacation. I came home to happy, healthy kids and never had to worry while I was gone because they sent updates upon my request with photos. I’m so grateful for the caring staff!

I never post reviews but in this case I have to. This place is absolutely wonderful! The meet and greet was so relaxed and made me feel super comfortable with leaving my cat for 2 weeks. They send me updates and pictures which I love! I also needed extra days and they accommodated me right when I called. I will always use this place and recommend to all my friends!

This place is absolutely wonderful for your pets needs. My dog has issues controlling weight and he has special dietary and exercise needs. While I was out of town for a holiday trip my little buddy was taken care of so incredibly well. I planned for the sitter to come for sitting everyday while I was away and to get my dog his exercise (walking he’s not a runner). The sitter came to meet me and my dog. Anyway they sent me daily updates with photos about how well he was behaving and how friendly and energetic he was. I was extremely worried about him being sad that I was gone for so long. The pictures proved to me that he was having a grand time with the sitter everyday. They walked him and played with him each day’s. The gave me all the updates about his eating and energy levels which made me feel very comfortable with them.
Everyone that I worked with at this company was extremely friendly and a pleasure to work with. I have known many people that have used this service over the years. Many of my friends and family members have used them as well. Not to mention their services are extremely affordable and you can customize your own experience!
I highly recommend you using them if you need someone to watch your fur family! Give them a call and get to know their amazing team.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My pup is special, to say the least. She is a rescue so not good with other pups or strangers. We did an initial meet up to see how it went. She loved her sitter but I was super cautious as she has issues with new people. After arranging a few walks while I was home so she could be more comfortable when I left town, I was able to see how great her sitter was. I was even able to schedule a walk to meet a second sitter (apparently that is the protocol, just in case life throws my sitter a curveball… happens to me all the time!!) They loved her special quirks as much as I did! For the cautious parent who needs a little extra, they fit the bill. I can now go out of town without inconveniencing my family. Thanks for all the love you give to my special girl!

I am an avid reader of reviews and for the first time I have been let down. I called Prestigious Pets to book daily visits for my cat while I was gone for Thanksgiving. The pet-​sitter that showed up to my house took great notes on our cat and I was told that she would be the one that would come visit unless there was an emergency or if my sitter was unavailable (this is also stated in the Q&A of their website). She told me her visits would last 20 minutes and I explained to her how important it is for her to play with my cat because he is super active and will become destructive if he doesn’t get at least 15 minutes of playtime. I thought there would be no problem considering the great reviews Prestigious Pets has on Unilocal,however I was sadly mistaken.
1. The pet-​sitter I met before I left was not the one taking care of my cat more than half the times. I understand if she could not make it one day and sent another sitter like she explained, but if a new person is going to be the one taking care of my cat for the majority of the time, I would have liked to be notified.
2. The pet-sitter’s visits ranged from 5 to 15 minutes. The few times she was there for more than 10 minutes, she did not play with my cat. I am paying for a 20 minute visit, therefore I should get a 20 minute visit. This made me feel uncomfortable and felt bad for my kitty who is use to a lot of human interaction. The only thing I could count on Prestigious Pets for was to feed my cat and change out his water bowl daily.
3. Not only was it inconvenient having to email Prestigious Pets every day while I was out of the country just to get an update, but their updates consisted of one lined sentences like «so sweet» along with a picture of my cat. No details regarding the actual state of my cat.
4. I am not a fan that I cannot contact the pet sitter directly via text message and instead I have to email the company itself. It made the whole experience extremely impersonal and the convenience once again was not there. I was aware of this policy beforehand so at least it was not a surprise.
I am going to inform Prestigious Pets of my dissatisfaction with their services and hopefully no one else has to go through this while away from home.

I was referred to Prestigious Pets by a co-​worker and I’m so happy with them! My husband and I used them to take care of our cats when we went out of town. One of our cats was diabetic and needed insulin shots. We were nervous about leaving her but our sitter, Jessica, took good care of our babies. She sent us updates while we were away. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our pets were in good hands!

My dogs were very happy and well taken care of upon return of my vacation. Really pleased with their quality and check-​ins while I was away. Highly Recommend!

I have been using Prestigious Pets since 2011! I wouldn’t recommend any other company to care for my baby «Cat Daddy»! I travel quite a bit and i never have to worry if he’s in good hands or not. They send me pictures and updates of him and his pet sitter cuddling and playing all the time. They also do really fun contests on Facebook and Instagram that i always participate in. Prestigious Pets really cares and that’s all i can ask for!

Need someone to take care of your fur baby while you are away? Prestigious Pets is the place to call!
I hired a walker for Dante — he had some special issues and needed to be taken out a few extra times while I was at work. Here’s how it worked…
I scheduled a little meet and greet, we were assigned Jennifer (she is wicked awesome and as a side note, is a really good singer…). She came over to meet us and get the low down on what I was looking for — she took very good notes and Dante loved her. Each time she visited, I got a detailed note of what happened — pees, poos, outside adventures — I really appreciated this, as Dante’s health was a little shaky.
Overall, the group here is great to work with, they are quick to reply to emails, facebook messages and phone calls, and have fun facebook and instagram contests. Plus they have a large variety of visit options — which is super convenient!
Sadly, Dante is no longer with me… When he crossed the bridge, the Prestigious team was amazing, flowers were on my doorstep within hours. I know I’ll get another fur friend soon, and when I do, I’ve got Jennifer at Prestigious Pets saved in the cell!

My usual pet sitter/​walking company, Great Paws was closed so I decided to try Prestigious Pets based on all of the good reviews. We have 2 dogs and a fish that were being cared for while we were gone a Friday through Tuesday evening.
I knew in the initial meeting that I did not think the company was a good fit. The walker would not share her phone number and said any communications had to be emailed through the company. Since their hours are M-​F 9 am — 4pm or Sat. 11 am — 3pm and closed Sunday, this leaves a lot of time where you cannot contact your walker if needed. We would have liked to contact her when we saw the alarm was not set and also when we saw the fish bowl had gone from clear to cloudy.
I also did not like their fee and the services you receive. In the initial meeting, our walker told us it was $ 20 to come to the house, but that did not include a walk. She told us that was $ 5 extra. Granted they invoiced and charged us $ 10 and it took multiple emails to get that credited back on my card. The request was made on ¹⁰⁄₆ and I did not receive the credit until ¹⁰⁄₁₄. Their initial quote said the visit included 10 – 15 minutes of a walk or backyard time so I was confused that our walker was telling us something different.
They also don’t automatically give you updates on the visit. In the initial meeting, our walker told us that has to be requested each day via email. I like to know the walk and visit happened and that the dogs are doing well.
Finally, I left a note asking for our keys to be left when the walker left the last day. They charge $ 15 to get them back at a later date. The walker did not leave the keys and they are going to charge me to get them back.
The one star is for potentially harming my fish, otherwise it would have been 2 stars. We have a camera on the bowl and we watched the water go from clear to cloudy. There was a layer of food on the bottom from way too much being put in it. Even if you don’t have fish, you should be able to see the change in the bowl and stop putting in food. Better yet, ask us how much to feed if you are unsure.
The care of our dogs was fine. It is just the company is not one I would recommend due to their policies. I did share this feedback with them and they wanted to discuss it. However, I have no plans to use them again and did not want to take the time to discuss the issues.

First of all, my pug, Charlotte, and I absolutely love Prestigious Pets. Prestigious Pets was the very first dog walking/​pet sitting service I have ever utilized, and they will be the standard of which I will compare all others. Everyone I worked with from the office personnel and our walkers were absolute joys to work with. Opening my home to practical strangers was a very daunting task for me; however, everyone at Prestigious Pets made the process so much easier by answering all my questions and solving all of my concerns.
I could always tell that Charlotte had a great walk and had lots of fun. Additionally, her walkers were great by leaving a daily walking log. Not only did they mark whether or not she was successful in her endeavors to potty (#1 or #2), they also left very sweet notes for me to read. I had no concerns with having her walkers enter my apartment each day after meeting them.
I 100% recommend Prestigious Pets for your dog walking needs! I thoroughly enjoyed working with them, and even more importantly, I know Charlotte did, too.

I needed a reliable pet sitter for my crazy schedule and Prestigious Pets truly stepped up! The initial consultation was simple and free and services were able to start immediately. Brooke was amazing! She loved my two cats like they were her own and I am sad that I am moving and she will not be sitting for me. She was attentive to the notes I left and the instruction I gave when something needed to change either from a dietary perspective of a process perspective. I can’t brag enough about them and highly recommend them.

From top to bottom the best company/​people I could have ever asked for! My dogs (Ziggy & Pearl, Boston Terriers) are like my kids and I take it that serious. So for me to leave my dogs in someone else’s hands whether for walks or overnight stays it is extremely important for me to fully trust the people handling my dogs. From the initial interview process till 1 year later of using this company I couldn’t be happier and more pleased. My dogs love our walker and they show their happiness. Would and have recommended them to everyone that I know.

How easy! I have a spare set of keys to the consultant that came to meet me and my puppy and then set up an automatic credit card charge. And that’s it! On days I don’t need a walker I simply email and voila! I couldn’t be happier with this service.
I have even accidentally surprised the walker that has come to walk my pup (days that I legit forgot to cancel) and he still takes her on their regular long walk. I can tell on those days that she really does love him. Very happy.

I love Prestigious Pets, but more importantly, my precious puppies love them!
Originally, I had one white furball puppy princess, which I sent to doggie day camp while I worked so that she could get her socialization and exercise. Eventually, we got a second bundle of doggy joy, which meant that day camp would be double the price. I started looking into dog walkers, because they tend to charge similar rates between walking one and two dogs. Economies of scale and all that.
Eventually, I found Prestigious Pets, and they have been amazing. I appreciated that they did a free initial consultation with my dogs to make sure that they would get along with the walker. And they did. Two walkers came to my apartment and played with my dogs. We talked about my dogs’ nuances, personalities, and what I wanted out of the walks. I’m a little bit obsessed with my puppies, and really protective, so I wanted to make sure they got the best walker possible. I have also never had a walker before. I asked a ton of questions, and they were extremely patient and put all my concerns to rest. Here are additional reasons why I would recommend Prestigious Pets:
1. Dogs love them!
The walkers from Prestigious Pets are great. They’re very communicative, responsive, and trustworthy. One morning when I was walking my dogs, I ran into my walker, who was walking someone else’s dog, and I could see she was doing it very patiently and attentively. Also, my dogs were both very excited to see her, so I know they love her.
2. They go above and beyond.
In addition, Prestigious Pets goes above and beyond its expected obligations. Do you want the walker to get your mail? They’ll do it! Do you want them to water your plants? Turn off your lights? Give your dogs water? They’ll do it! My dogs use litter boxes because they’re cat-​sized and we live in an apartment. When my little one gets upset, he will kick up litter sometimes, and the walker cleans it when she can. I don’t expect her to at all, but she does it anyway. It is really nice.
3. They are very accommodating.
If you sign up for weekly walks (which I highly recommend), they have a system where you can cancel or add a walk the DAY OF the walk before 9am. That is so convenient! I cannot tell you how many times I have forgotten a scheduling conflict or vacation and emailed them midnight the night before to reschedule a walk. They have done it cheerfully each time despite how scatter-​brained I’ve been.
4. They care about the pups.
My younger puppy fractured his little paw a while ago, so he had a cast for a while, and the vet put him on exercise restriction. Prestigious Pets has been immensely sympathetic about the whole ordeal, and very accommodating about scheduling changes and changes with the walks. I’ve changed things on them so many times, according to the vet’s instructions. (Walk him with the cast gently! Don’t walk him with the cast! Walk him with the cast but avoid water! Walk him with the cast indoors! Don’t walk him!) They’ve been very cheerful and understanding with each change. Also, the walker– she is really caring. Even when she is only walking the other dog and not the little one, she will play with him so he is not as sad about being left behind.
5. They document their walks.
There was another reviewer that was concerned about confirmation that the dogs were actually walked. I haven’t found this to be a problem. Prestigious Pets offers a sign-​in sheet/​log at my apartment that my walker fills out each day she takes the dogs out. When the log is full, she provides another one. She not only checks in, but she’ll leave detailed notes about how the walk went, and whether the dogs relieved themselves outside or not. I think there might have been one time when the walker forgot to sign the sheet, but I emailed to confirm that the dogs had their walk (I know – I’m a helicopter parent to the pups) and they responded in a warm and timely fashion.
6. Other perks.
Prestigious Pets also offers the option of running with the dogs. I find this funny and awesome, even though my small fluffballs don’t need it.
All in all, I’m really glad I found Prestigious Pets! Sometimes when I’m at work, trapped in my office surrounded by papers, I realize that its 1pm and that my dogs are probably frolicking about in the sunshine with their walker. That always makes me happy.

Prestigious Pets is a godsend. Found their magnet on a baggy station off of Katy Trail and the rest is history. After my first experience with them, I am kicking myself for not looking into their services earlier.
If your pup is anything like my Primo, then you will sympathize with how hard it can be to board him when you are on vacation elsewhere. Primo tends to get extreme separation anxiety, does not always play with other dogs and despises overnight crating. Add in the extra expense out of my pocket for services that he doesn’t even like, and it’s a lose, lose situation with overnight boarding.
Now what if I told you for a fraction of the cost, Prestigious Pets will send an expert to your door, consult with you and your pet before ever sitting them? Melina was wonderfully patient and professional. For five days, she visited him twice daily, brought in my packages, offered to water plants, played with Primo, walked and fed him, and administered his medication.
What brought me peace of mind in particular was the fact that Primo was suffering from a recently sprained muscle which required her to follow specific instructions when it came to meds, walking and being carried up and down the stairs. I requested an update via email and it arrived promptly with an included photo of his progress.
All of this from the familiarity of my home. Win for Primo! Overall assessment: affordable, trustworthy, attentive and incredibly convenient.

Between two kids and jobs, our «starter baby» became the last man on the totem pole so we called Prestigious Pets. We’d never used a walking service before, only pet boarding, and are extremely happy we did!
It’s true, you may not always have the same walker but that was not an issue for us. My husband and I sometimes work from home so we met a few of the walkers and everyone was professional, spoke sweetly to Tucker and (most importantly) brought him back panting! We also like the same-​day cancellation policy, it really came in handy during the crazy rain storms.
I would definitely recommend Prestigious Pets to anyone with a busy schedule!

I got myself an Australian Shepherd puppy knowing that I would need to hire a walking service while I worked during the day. The prestigious pets staff was professional and always accommodated our needs. You may meet your walker first before they actually start walking your pet.
If something comes up you can call them the day of and they will have someone there to take care of your furry friend!
Worth every penny spent.
If you’re in the Dallas area request Jenn for a walker. She is the best.

The prices for this service is very reasonable, but be sure to book early. Their email system of communication is very efficient and I always get quick responses.
I’ve met a few of my walkers and they have all been very pleasant, very outgoing and friendly people. My dog (who is a chow) loves them as well.
They’ve also fed my cats and dog when I am out of town. Their walkers/​sitters seem to truly love animals.
