Dear Hilma,
Sometimes our Mom needs a vacation,or, she has to go out of town to a seminar for work. We love her very much and miss her when she goes.
Yet we are so happy that she has chosen I-Stay-U-Go to take care of us when she's away. You really are terrific! You give us food twice a day and make sure we have fresh water with no crumbs in it-we get food in it sometimes! You always give us a little playtime and chat with us about our day. We do love you Hilma. you know just who to call if we get sick or there's some kind of trouble. Mom calls you on your cell phone,that you always have with you, and you let Martha know that we are fine. Hilma you are the greatest, Love, Duke and Afi.

We have boarded our dogs at some of the most highly regarded pet "hotels" in town -- and yet, nothing compares to the "at home" care they get with I-Stay-U-Go.   Keeping our dogs in their own home is the best remedy for a stress free trip for us -- and for them. From the very first interview with Hilma we knew this was no ordinary pet sitting service.  Hilma came to our house with a list of questions so elaborate that she actually wrote down more details than we usually give out about our dogs when we know someone else is watching them (and let's just say, we tend to overdo it). With Hilma, or anyone else on her well-trained staff, we always feel a sense of security that our pets' every need is taken care of.

"My job as a Global Training Manager requires extensive travel throughout the world, for periods of time that can vary from an overnight to an extended stay of more than a month. Couple that with my being a single "father" of a 15 year-old "daughter", and you'll understand my need for the most attentive and professional pet-sitters available. The staff of I-Stay U-Go has been caring for my dog, Chelsea, for more than 4 years and I can't imagine a world without them. Hilma and her staff take the business of caring for their clients' pets seriously; unlike the "teenager across the street", watching over their clients' pets and homes is their livelihood and chosen occupation - and it shows in everything they do. From the voice-messages left that let me know Chelsea is well when I'm in a time zone 16 hours away, to knowing what days to leave a check and unlock the gate for the gardener, and knowing the neighborhood trash day, up to making me aware of an unusual "bump" on Chelsea's belly or a slight change in her eating habits, I-Stay U-Go provides me with something I've not often found - complete confidence that my pet and home are well cared for in my absence..."priceless".

“I trust Hilma more than I trust my husband with “my boys”. Hilma is like family – the only one to take care of my kids when I’m out of town. I wouldn’t be comfortable with anyone else. We can relax and be worry free when Hilma’s on the job.”

It has been such a pleasure to have Hilma caring for my dog Sydney for several years now when we go on vacation. I know in my heart that he is well taken care of. I would recommend I-Stay U-Go services to anyone that loves their pets...It is a joy knowing them...and I don't know if you're like me, but when I am away Hilma is always a phone call away to inquire how he is doing. An extremely satisfied customer.

As you can tell by the picture below "Shadow" is one very important family member! We travel often to Maui and Europe and have never boarded him, as we feel that would be too disorienting for our baby.

I Stay U Go, has been a wonderful solution that has allowed us to travel with the peace of mind that he is in the best of hands, while we are away. Hilma and her team are dependable, compassionate, offer comprehensive pet services and will even water your plants & bring in your mail! We highly recommend their company and services to any pet lovers out there :-)

Hilma is a top notch professional. We are so happy to have finally found an individual who allows us to go on vacation and feel we are leaving our cat (Daisy) in good hands.

Hilma has been looking after my two cats for over five years. I feel so safe leaving them under her care when I go on vacation. The kitties always look healthy and happy when I return and I have never had a problem. I especially like the fact that Hilma is a vet tech, because then she can watch out for potential health problems. My cats are like children to me, and I'm so glad I can rely on Hilma to look after them while I'm out of town.

Although one of my dogs had multiple illnesses and many pills twice a day, I-Stay-U-Go did a fabulous job of keeping her on her medication and well cared for. My husband and I were able to leave on vacation secure in the knowledge that Maggy would be happy and in good shape upon our return.

I-Stay-U-Go was the first dog sitting company we have ever used. We never thought that we would ever be able to use a dog sitting service because my dogs are agressive towards strangers. A few years back I relocated to southern California and was stuck with no familiar faces to watch my dogs. With my family on the other side of the country I knew that I would need to figure something out. I decided to call I-Stay-U-Go to see what they recommended. I spoke to Hilma and she was eager to help. She took time to come over to meet the dogs and it was obvious from the get go that she knew exactly what she was doing. After only about 15 minutes she had made 2 new friends (my dogs rarely like anyone new). We have been using I-Stay-U-Go ever since. Now we don't have to stress about finding someone to watch the dogs if we want to go out of town. It's always nice to come home to happy and healthy dogs.

I have been using I Stay U Go for almost two years now. I was so relieved to find such a wonderful service. I can leave town without any worries about my babies. I Stay U Go takes care of everything - they follow your schedule for your animals, keep track of and administer medicines, alternate lights and moniter television viewing hours!, and stay in touch with me if anything comes up. They're always available if I want to check in, and when I come home my girls are calm and have obviously been well-cared for. Thanks I Stay U Go! Meredith

Our ability to enjoy ourselves while on vacation is dependent upon knowing our three cats will be well taken care of. Thankfully, after a recommendation from a friend, we found I-Stay-U-Go, and we have been able to relax and enjoy our vacations ever since! Hilma is responsible, knowledgeable and, most importantly, loves animals. The staff at I-Stay-U-Go is responsive and professional. I wouldn’t dream of entrusting my fuzzy babies to anyone else, and continue to recommend I-Stay-U-Go to friends, family members and colleagues.

Hilma and “I-Stay U-Go” have been enabling me to leave home for extended vacations with me always knowing that when I return my pets (Dog, cats and pond fish) have been well taken care of and are always safe and healthy. Thanks Hilma!

"I count I-Stay-U-Go as one of my little blessings. I never have to worry about my 2 dogs or my daughter's goldfish when we are away...they are well taken care of, and the little extras they do for us around the house make our return so much easier!"
