Coddle Creek Pet Services

"One of the most popular requests people have is for pet sitting - who can you trust with your pets? I want to leave my story here so those of you looking for help will consider Beth and Billy at Dog Walkers & More at Coddle Creek, LLC Mooresville NC. After reading the novel I have written below, you will understand how incredibly devoted they are to you and your pet. Beth and Billy took care of Patch, my 15-year-old, diabetic cat, and two kittens while I was out of town over Thanksgiving. Now, Patch has always been shy around strangers, preferring to hide rather than sniff out new people. Prior to my trip, they visited with us twice to help Patch warm up to them. They hung out with us for over an hour both times. I was very impressed! While I was gone, I received daily emails and pictures of my babies. I knew exactly how they were eating, playing, getting into silly trouble, and using the bathroom. My kittens were doing wonderful with Beth and Billy, as I knew they would. Patch, however, was being stubborn. Beth stayed hours past her visit time to coax Patch to come out of hiding and eat. She played soothing music for him, sprayed her clothing with calming spray, and she even laid on the floor to be able to see him under the bed. A few days went by and Patch still refused to eat. I was kept aware of his situation with phone calls and text messages. Beth and I finally agreed it was best to take him to an emergency vet since he had medical issues to begin with. Beth drove him to Huntersville and sat in her car the entire time, waiting on the doctors to triage him and report back. She stayed with him for hours and hours, well into the night. She refused my suggestion that she go home and rest as she had been with my cat all day; she wanted to stay and hear what the vet had to say. During this stressful time, Beth became Patch's grandma. She loved him as much as I did. The vet called us both to give updates! Sadly, we had to let Patch go as he was just too sick to come back home. There were some additional underlying medical issues we didn't know about, and his time had come. Beth was amazing throughout all of this. Knowing I couldn't be home with him, she gave Patch all the love and attention I would have given him. I truly felt that he had someone who loved him there at the end. Now, such personal and dedicated service must be expensive, right? Not. at. all. In fact, Beth and Billy did not charge extra for all they did for Patch; not the extra visit in the beginning, not the extra hours spent every day with him, not driving him to Huntersville and staying way after hours to be with him. They did this free out of the love they have for animals and their clients. Beth and Billy are godsends when you need someone to care for your pets the same way you would. I will not stop singing their praises and recommending them to everyone. You will not find better people to love on your pets whenever you're too far away to do so yourself."

"I can leave my pets at home, with no worries, and know they are going to be well cared for. Beth & Billy are the best!"

"Have you ever heard the saying that good things come from a bad situation. Well I can honestly say that Dog Walkers & More at Coddle Creek is the great service that came to me out of a very stressful situation when my former pet sitters told me that they didn’t have anyone available to watch my dogs when I needed them. In my frantic search to find a replacement, I reached out to several different services. Beth, from Dog Walkers & More, called me back immediately and I very quickly knew that everything would be better than ok. Not only was she professional and kind, she was very understanding of my stress level and calmed me down very quickly and walked me thru the process to setup an online account and schedule our first meeting. Her questionnaire was very detailed and thourough. She even was able to notify me that the veterinarian at the office the dogs go to had left the practice and the likely replacement. She asked me questions about how to handle emergencies in my absence which made me seriously wonder why none of the pet sitters I worked with previously had asked / prepared for the same types of potential emergency situations. She also requests a special check-in when I return home so she knows that I have not been delayed and that the dogs are safe and taken care of. The app used for her practice is easy to navigate, schedule visits, and communicate with the dog walkers if there are any special instructions or changes in plans. I recently had a family emergency that delayed my return for an unknown period of time. Beth and her husband were very understanding. They responded very quickly to my note and told me to take care of my family and that they would take good care of my dogs while I was away. I can’t tell you what a relief it was to know my dogs were safe and taken care of with one quick message in the portal. Each visit to the house, they send a note to let me know how the dogs are doing with the cutest pictures. I look forward to the notes and the pictures when I am away because I know they are happy and healthy and that I don’t need to worry about them. In addition to providing the best pet sitting services ever, they have also handled household issues while I am away. On one visit Billy noticed that the lock on the sliding back door of the house was not latching properly. He created a temporary solution to secure the door and then brought back a board to put into the track to ensure the house was safe. They also make sure the house doesn’t look empty by taking in the mail, packages, and newspapers and changing the lights and blinds so it looks like someone is home. On garbage days, they will take the garbage to the curb and bring the cans back in. I really cannot say enough positive things about Beth, Billy and the team at Dog Walkers & More. If I could have given them a 10 star rating I would have. Definitely check them out. You will not be disappointed."

"Billy and Beth are great!!! I was hesitant to call anyone to watch my "little buddy", Beckham, but after talking with Billy I had no reservations. I got detailed reports of each visit along with a text and Beckham did great with him. Very affordable rates and reliable. You can tell how much they adore animals. I will call them again when I need this service!"

"These people are angels! The best thing for your pets when you are away is to have a friendly face take care of them in their own home - not in a crowded unhealthy cage at some kennel. Bill and Beth have been wonderful for us and I would highly recommend them. They really care about the pets in their charge and go overboard in their service. They even send use text messages with pictures daily to let us know our dogs are okay (although that might be just for us...)."
