“Kaylan did an excellent job caring for our pets while we were on holiday! I was concerned about leaving them as one of our dogs is diabetic but she took excellent care of all of them and put my mind at ease. Highly recommend Kaylan and will definitely be hiring her again!!”
“Raevin is amazing... with my husband's new work schedule we knew we needed to hire a second dog walker and Raevin was even more amazing then we could have asked for. The dogs love her and are always happy at the end of the day... we can't wait to continue working with her in the future!!”
About: I grew up on a farm, and have experience caring for both cats & dogs, I currently have 2 very active & friendly dogs & no cats, but I can look after both.

My yard is fenced, I have 2 playful & well-behaved labs that are never outside unless under supervision, we welcome well-behaved & friendly fur friends that play well with others.
“I was really impressed with how friendly and caring Bruna was right from first impression. Bruna went above and beyond my expectations, and not ever having a dog sitter I was a little uneasy with everything. I would recommend Bruna in a heartbeat to look after your Precious fur baby.”

I have had animals my whole life I currently don’t have pets because my middle son is allergic and I am hoping one day he will grow out of it and we can again.
