1. Kayley E.
“Our dogs loved Kayley, they spent the next day looking for her in the guest room. She was clean and communicative and we would love to have her back!”
2. Kaleigha W.
“had the absolute pleasure of working with my sister Kaleigha n a recent project that involved handling some of the most well-behaved, but sometimes challenging, dogs. I’ve always known she had a special connection with animals, but seeing her in action was truly impressive. There was a situation where a dog got a little too excited during a witness testimony session, and things could’ve easily spiraled. But Kaleigha handled it with such calm and confidence, not only soothing the dog but also keeping everything running smoothly. Her patience and understanding with the dogs are unmatched, and it's clear she truly cares about their well-being. She has a natural gift, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with in that environment. Whether it's managing a tricky situation or just giving the dogs the attention they need, kaleigha knows exactly how to make everything come together beautifully. It’s always a joy working alongside her, and I’m proud to call her not just my sister, but a true professional when it comes to working with dogs.”
3. Mykenzie J.
“Mykenzie is a wonderful young lady and I highly recommend her for house and pet sitting. Our birds warmed up to her quickly and she took very good care of them. We felt comfortable and secure with her house and pet sitting for us for a week while I was away having surgery.”
