Testimonials

Leaving my pets in the hands of a pet sitter is not an easy thing to do. Not just anyone meets the requirements. It takes an extremely mature, responsible individual with a “way” with animals, to be able to handle their basic needs, keep them happy, exercised (when appropriate) and carefully watched for any possible unforeseen problems that might occur. In addition, it means giving access to my home and all that is within. It’s not easy and requires a special person.

That being said, I feel totally comfortable leaving Deb Gallo in charge! I’ve known Deb, for years as a talented, and resourceful assistant at the Croton Animal Hospital. She has also cared for my Yellow Lab, Harry and my cats, Lola and Jack with ease. With Deb in charge, I know they are in the best of hands, and I’m always able to leave knowing that they will receive the best care possible.

As a new pet owner, I wasn't sure what to look for in a pet sitter so I interviewed several different ones. Not only was Furry People Pet Sitting competitvely priced, they were professional, responsive and very knowledgeable. The moment I met Debra Gallo, I knew she was the sitter for Xeena, my then 4-month old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Deb helped get her house trained and give us her paw on command! A week after bringing home Bella, our second Cav, she developed a severe case of pneumonia, needing a lot of medication and great care which FPPS was extremely reliable with helping me administer. We were lucky Deb has such a solid medical background as a vet assistant. Now, Bella is in perfect puppy form. No sooner did that one recover did Xeena require knee surgery! Again, I trusted Deb, Shannon and Evelyn to help me nurse her back to health. Xeena can run around better than ever except when she just wants to lounge on the couch. Over the last year, Deb and her team have become a part of the family. They're always accommodating and communicative - love the daily report cards! My husband and I trust them in our home and with our "canine kids" And besides, Xeena and Bella cannot live without them.
