We have used Wags Away many times and they have always been fantastic. They are particularly good at sending pictures of our pets whilst we are away so we can see they are OK. This way we know things are safe and secure. Will be using them again next time we are out of town.

Wags Away is an incredible service and has my utmost highest recommendation for anyone looking for help with their fur baby. Maria has been a tremendous help walking my American Bulldog, Koa, daily after I gave birth to my first baby. Koa is very particular and needed someone who could handle his size and special needs. Maria has done and continues to do an amazing job making sure Koa gets exercise and extra TLC, which has made his transition to our new member of the family that much smoother. I’m so grateful I found Wags Away as their whole team is such a pleasure to work with. Karen is such a sweet and friendly person. She will make sure you and your pup are well taken care of. =)

Karen takes great care of our bulldog and home when we are away ❤
Our dog can be grouchy at times but luckily Karen knows how to "speak dog". Thank you! 😊

Karen was a wonderful caregiver for my little terrier and her two “cousin” dogs. During a trip to Del Mar to attend my nephew’s wedding we asked Karen to watch our dogs for three consecutive evenings. She took amazing care of our fur babies and sent us hourly updates. What was even more remarkable was that our three pooches , who bark whenever someone comes to the door, didn’t make a peep! My only regret is that she is not available in San Francisco where we live.

Karen, Janet and Wags Away are awesome! They understood from the start that our dog is our child and treated her with lots of love and attention.
They were very thorough in the meet and greet and my dog adores them.
Communication was stellar. They sent texts and photos as soon as they arrived and after their walk. In addition, they were very responsive when we asked questions, while we were away.
We will be using them in the future, and would recommend them in a heartbeat. They have us peace of mind.

I was in Del Mar from out of town and unexpectedly needed someone to watch my dog for the afternoon. I reached out to wagsaway and they were immediately responsive and so professional. My dog is with me all the time so he was pretty stressed to be left with someone new but Karen was so kind and sensitive and made my anxious little guy feel ok. I was so grateful to find such a fantastic company that I feel safe trusting with my sweet boy. I’ll definitely be calling them again.
