Pals That Wander is the best! My dog Ellie has been going on weekly pack hikes for almost two years, and she is always so excited when Aysha comes to pick her up. And Ellie comes home happily exhausted after a full day of adventure every time. Ellie can be a bit anxious and particular, and Aysha is absolutely fantastic with her - she's patient, caring, and clearly great with dogs. I couldn't recommend Pals That Wander more!

Pals that Wander is truly amazing. I leave my miniature long haired Dachshund and German Shorthaired a few times a year for extended stays with Aysha and Hero. My pups are always so excited to see them and the rest of the pack, enjoy all the outings, and play time. The pictures posted and sent to me leave me assured that they are having fun on hikes, by the beach, and wherever else the adventure takes them. Aysha is very responsive to messages and provides great updates throughout their stay. She and Hero treat them as if they were their own.

It's Aysha's service that has convinced me that my dogs have the most luxurious lives imaginable. Every time she sends a picture from one of their adventures, I'm both delighted and envious. I'd really benefit from these weekly hikes. But I'm seriously grateful for Ayesha, I feel like a much better pet owner knowing that my pups get to explore a beautiful new corner of the city with their pack every week. I'll never know how she gets them all to pose for these photos though.

Aysha is absolutely wonderful with our pup. She's extremely communicative and reliable, knowledgable, and loving to our dog. Our dog absolutely loves her time with Pals That Wander and comes back tired! Bonus - we get amazing photographs and videos of them on their adventures. Highly recommend Aysha for both adventures and boarding!!

We've worked with Aysha over the last four years to mind our dogs, and I honestly can't say enough wonderful things about her. She's reliable, communicative, enthusiastic and incredibly patient with our two nutty Australian Shepherds. We know they're in good, loving hands each time she minds them, and we wouldn't know what to do without her! Would give her 10 stars if I could.
