“Kayla was wonderful with our 3 pugs. It was obvious from our meet and greet that she is great with animals. Our babies took to her immediately. While we were gone, she sent pictures regularly, which is so important to us when we are away from them. We returned to a clean house and yard and to fur babies that were excited to see us but were not anxious or stressed at all, which means they got plenty of attention while we were away. We've already booked with her again and would 100% recommend her to others.”


“Wow!! Jaden did a great job! She spent time with my animals and stayed at our house. She sent me lots of pictures, which always makes me worry less. I will definitely use Jaden again. Thanks for such great service!”

Heidi M.
“Heidi is the most capable and knowledgeable, as well as responsible person I know when it comes to pet care, particularly dog care. She’s very experienced with dogs because she has been an owner of many and has trained them expertly. I have learned many things from Heidi’s expertise with dogs, which I don’t think I would have ever learned other wise. Her compassion for dog care is evident in her treatment of her own pets and resounds as some of the most attentive care I’ve ever seen. I highly recommend Heidi as a dog sitter or walker.”
