Connie at WOOFWOOF is always our first choice for sitting our little Yorkie, Dodger. While we're away traveling, we feel very much at ease knowing that he's in Connie's loving and capable hands. Dodger loves playing with Star and hates to leave!
I was so glad to have found Connie and Star to watch after our beagle puppy, Bella, all day while we are at work! Not only does she receive supervision and socialization during the day, but Connie works with her on her training and potty training while we're at work, as well. I can work all day with the knowledge that Bella is getting the attention and training she needs even though we can't always be there!
Connie,
The main reason we were happy to find someone like you to watch our dog Banjo is because of your obvious love for dogs. We could tell from the very first time we stepped into your house that Banjo would be very happy spending the weekend with Star and you. We have no doubt that you treated Banjo with as much love and care as you do Star. We can’t imagine ever taking Banjo back to a “kennel”.
Regards

Excerpt from note sent after the "Hill Boys" stayed with WoofWoof:
Dear Ms. Connie:
...we appreciate your care of Barkley, Winston, Scrappy, & Duke...
...a loving environment for pets and people!
You were a blessing to meet and we hope to see you again and remain in touch.
Love- Dorinda & Charlie Hill.
“Personal recommendation for Connie: she is a wonderful friend to dogs, a kind and gentle and caring handler who loves animals and will do her absolute best for them. Connie is a wonderful friend, period. She is fair, listens well, and provides helpful moral support wanting the best for her human friends, too. I would completely trust my pet and my household and possessions to her care.” February 26, 2010
Excerpts from Colagiovanni Recommendation:
We wanted to find a warm and loving home for our Welsh Terrier, where he would be safe and secure... The source of Connie’s excellent service can be traced to her understanding of and genuine affection for dogs and people....
We as a family have the peace of mind to travel without worry, knowing that Sonny is enjoying his vacation... Connie’s home is a place where every day is an adventure and where every dog has a friend.

We are borderline crazy pet people. We are very picky and don't trust many people with our animals. We researched and spoke with many day care and boarding facilities throughout St. Louis and Metro East Illinois for our Airedale puppy, Ernie. We were dissapointed with most facilities due to there being way too many dogs, use of negative punishment methods, poor cleanliness, prices, or lack of schedule flexibility. We were looking for an experienced sitter who used positive methods and whose schedule worked with ours. Connie at Woof Woof is the perfect fit! She has the most amazing way with dogs, her schedule is extremely flexible, her home and yard are ideal for dog sitting and her prices are great. We have not worried for one minute about the safety or mental well being of Ernie. We have total peace of mind when he is with her. Best yet, our rambunctious puppy comes home tired out and well behaved after a day playing with his friends. He used to be a bit afraid of new dogs but quickly learned to love all new dogs and is learning good doggy manners. He can't wait to get in the door when he arrives. We regularly recommend Woof Woof to people looking for daycare or boarding services.

Connie always takes excellent care of my dog. I got Ethel 3 1/2 years ago from a rescue so she was very afraid of people and noises. She was also very attached to me, so I was hesitant the first time I had to leave her but she did great!! I told Connie that she was very afraid of fireworks and since it was over the 4th of July I was even more hesitant. Connie took Ethel with her to her friends so she was never alone and they were with her in the basement with the TV turned up so Ethel would not hear the fireworks and she did not!! Connie will walk the dogs which is great since mine needs a lot of exercise, she gives Ethel her supplements and the special food she eats at lunch. Ethel was even allowed to sleep on the bed if she wanted since Connie knew that Ethel likes to sleep on beds and couches. Everything is handled very professionally, the house is set up for dogs and there is a nice yard for the dogs to run around. My Ethel doesn't seem to mind going and when I get her back she does not act mad nor is she anxious, stressed becaue I think she enjoys it at Connie and Star's house. I highly recommend WoofWoof.
