"Robert was very good with keeping us updated twice a day. He took excellent care of our dog and house and when we missed our flight home, he was more than gracious in helping us out by extending his service. Excellent service!"

Marc A. - West Haven, Utah

"I can't believe a service like this exists! Now we can go out of town, even on short notice, and not have to even think about who's going to take care of our pets. Thank you!"

Paul B. - Gaston, South Carolina

"I truly cannot think of any way to improve. I was so pleased and surprised by the good service, as were my neighbors, who spoke very highly of you!"

"When Sasha had surgery we contacted Away Home & Pet Care to watch over her while we were at work. We didn't feel comfortable leaving Sasha at home alone and we didn't want to ask our parents to do it either. Thank goodness for Away Home & Pet Care! Sasha seemed totally at ease with Rick and we knew she was in good hands."

Buck & Linda

"We used another pet sitter and decided to switch because of all the amenities you offer for our pets and our home. We know that no matter the problem, your company can help us. How convenient!"

Robert, thank you very much for taking care of our 5 'children' while were were in California. The daily text message and emails were such a comfort. I never once had to worry about our pets or the house. Thank you so much! We'll be booking again!"

Kathy - Irmo, South Carolina

"My husband and I recently moved from Atlanta where we used a pet sitter before. However the professionalism of Robert and his staff is something I have never seen before in a pet sitting business. This gave us real comfort when deciding to use their services. We were comfortable from day one and will continue to patronize this business."

Carolyn P. - Chapin, South Carolina

"I can't tell you how much we appreciate all you've done for our cats and for us. You've made it easier to relax and just enjoy our trip - so much that we want to take another trip around New Year's! Things were GREAT when we got home. The kids were glad to see us, but they weren't stressed out. I don't know how you did it, but you appear to be the only person who can care for Peakie Pie while we're gone without her getting freaked out! The only issue is that they're annoyed with us for not being as good at being Moms as you are at being their temporary guardian! You were extraordinary!! "

Ivy - Columbia, South Carolina

"I had total peace of mind and appreciated the daily contact with text messages. I've never left home and not worried about the house until using this service. We will never board the dogs again. The cats were all happy. We usually have one or two that are so mad at us for leaving and all the animals were just as happy and content when we got home that it was like we never left. Thank you so much.”

"You provide the peace of mind that so many may never know if they do not use your service. The daily messaging is so reassuring and you took such good care of her and her eyes were shining bright when I peeked in her cage. You guys are the best and you are doing a service that speaks excellence in every way. Thank you for your love and care of our treasures on earth."

L.D. - Columbia, South Carolina

“I don't know what I would do without Away Home & Pet care. Mr. Rick has made a HUGE difference in my dogs life. You all are always there for me and Dobby even when I have to leave town on short notice you have always come through for me. It is so much nicer to leave Dobs at home instead of in a kennel if I have to run out of town for a night or two. Dobby adores Rick! Don't ever hesitate to call Away Home if you are thinking about their services. You will be glad you did and they will become a part of your "pet" life.”

D.E. - Columbia, South Carolina

"Your professionalism is unparalleled. You were so organized when you came to our home and took meticulous notes concerning our instructions. This made us feel completely at ease... My hats off to you!"

Stacey J. - Chapin, South Carolina

"I'm still soaking up the thought of finally finding a dependable and trustworthy pet sitter! It made me feel much better ... especially when I don't know too many people in this town."
