What Arizona pet parents say
Real reviews from Google
"I have a 16 year old shih-tzu and i have always been super nervous of leaving him. I came across VetterCare cause i was looking for a highly trained individual that would know how to care for a senior dog with some health issues. We did our research and i found Diana. Let me tell you she was "THE BEST". I have never in 16 years with my shih tzu been more comfortable with someone like i was with Diana. Now my dog misses her lol . She did an excellent job. She gave me constant updates, she sent us the cutest pics of Mr. Bossy, he was so happy and absolutely just loved her. If you are looking for the Best person to watch your fur pets i "HIGHLY" recommend Diana. Thank you Diana and VetterCare . Five stars all the way"
"Great experience using Alexus to take care of my dog. She was very good at communicating, extremely professional and reliable. She clearly has a love for animals and I would definitely recommend anyone to use her and these services when in need."
"Brooke is the best! She has sat for our very busy house of two cats and two very active dogs many times and everyone is always so well taken care of. Would highly recommend her to anyone!"
"Martha took care of dog when I really needed it. I was worried of leaving my pet in the hands of sitter but she was exceptional. Trustworthy, caring and took a vested interested. Highly recommend."
"I love Sabrina's pet care! She took so great care of my fur babies while I was gone on a trip for a few days. I can really tell my fur babies were happy to have her company and care while I was gone. Sabrina will be my pet sitter the next time I need one! Thank you!!"
"Martha is amazing at taking care of my dogs! I am a very picky person when it comes to someone baby sitting my dogs but she just checks all the boxes! My dogs love her!!! 100% recommend her!"
Frequently asked questions
Is my pet boarded in a kennel or a home in Gilbert?
Neither — VetterCare boarding means your pet stays in your veterinary professional's own home, not a kennel or cage/run. It's a comfortable, family environment with one-on-one attention, instead of being one of many dogs in a facility.
How is this different from a traditional boarding kennel?
Traditional kennels house multiple pets and are staffed by kennel attendants. VetterCare pairs your pet one-on-one with an experienced, background-checked veterinary professional in their own home, so there's individual attention and someone trained to notice health or stress issues early.
Can my pet's medication and feeding schedule be kept the same while boarding?
Yes — your veterinary professional follows your pet's normal routine and medication schedule exactly, so nothing changes just because you're away.
Will I get updates while my pet is boarding?
Yes. Your veterinary professional sends photo updates while you're away, so you know how your pet is settling in.
What if my pet has anxiety or gets stressed easily?
Because your veterinary professional is trained to recognize stress and behavioral signs, they can adjust — extra reassurance, a calmer pace, whatever your pet needs — in a way a general kennel attendant typically isn't trained to.
Do you require proof of vaccination before boarding?
For everyone's safety and comfort, we typically ask for proof of vaccination before boarding. That said, we understand pets come to us in all kinds of circumstances, and we're happy to talk through your pet's specific situation directly — reach out and we'll figure out the right path together.
