Distinctive Petsitting

My spouse and I have used Distinctive Pet Sitting for over 2 years. We are a constantly moving and know how difficult it is to find someone of quality to care for our pets. On many occasions we have had last minute changes and/​or requests and distinctive pet sitting were always able to accommodate. All of our dog walkers took such great care of our pups. There is not one moment where we did not feel like they were in good hands. Thank you Lisa for your wonderful service as well as customer service!

Lisa Howard, the owner, raised the rates without letting me know when my husband and I were scheduling an out of town trip. Despite the fact that I had had them come many times to walk our dogs because the dog sitters themselves are great, Lisa Howard is not a caring customer service business owner. Be aware of rates being raised without your knowledge!

I recently moved away from the vicinity of my old Pet Sitting Services provider who was excellent and friendly. I contacted Distinctive Pet Sitters for an initial meeting and consultation. Immediately I felt uncomfortable with the Owner, Lisa Howard’s cold, rigid, demanding, unfriendly, and overbearing approach to me as a potential client and customer. She made me feel like I was an annoyance, and then proceeded to lay out the ‘demands’ and fees associated with the first meeting and consultation. Needless to say, I didn’t hire her or her company for my pet sitting needs. I did however, find a wonderful friendly and qualified fit for my pet sitting need. I would not recommend this pet sitting service to anyone. The owner is controlling, and hard to deal with.

The people at Distinctive Petsitting really do care about animals and providing great customer service. I have come to know the owner over the past 2 years and am impressed with the amount of personal attention she gives each client. A great choice for petsitting that will give you and your pet peace of mind!

Distinctive Petsitting is truly distinctive. When we travel, we never worry about our «girls.» I love coming home to Tari’s «love notes» telling me what went on while we were away. I can tell that our kitties were well-​loved and cared for by the way they look at me and say, «Oh, you’re home. Where’s Tari?»

Grateful for Distinctive Petsitting
I am so grateful for Distinctive Petsitting and our petsitter, Tari. She does an outstanding job with our dog, Scout. We were concerned if Scout could be kept by anyone and Tari has become his true friend. Scout is always in great spirits when we return from our trips and since he has such separation anxiety this is a great relief to us.
I look forward to working with Distinctive Petsitting this summer when we travel.

Though we had total confidence in Distinctive Petsitting’s sitters, and felt at ease when our dogs were in their hands, overall my fiancé and I were not pleased with the customer service aspect of DPI. The owner is not flexible with changing schedules, which is a common occurrence in our household (two frequently traveling young professionals working 45 – 60 hour weeks). Additionally, if you don’t have oodles of disposable income at your fingertips, this is not the service for you.
