Vacay for You, Vacay for Them!

Pet care experience

Welcome to Braveheart Animal Care! If you're looking for a seasoned, certified professional who will handle any emergency or challenging situation, offers top-notch care, exercise and socialization skills, welcome here! Important Note: My service area is set at 10 miles, based on my overnight fee of $85, but I often travel further, and base my additional fee on a per mile basis, the relationship we may establish, and frequency of need. I have been companion-sitting professionally since 2012. I am dedicated to ensuring a fabulous experience for your canine companion(s). They will be in affectionate, responsible, and well-qualified hands during my stays in your home. Overnight sitting includes morning and evening care, and a mid-day visit can be included for an additional fee. Here's what one very happy client recently wrote about her very digestive-sensitive puppy's stay: "Analisa took wonderful care of our puppy Bella. We were gone for a week and got a photo and text every day. I felt completely at ease. We will be using her to pet sit again. Bella has not had any tummy troubles since her stay over the holidays - you did such a great job with her!!!!" What others are saying: "Analisa could not have been kinder or more capable. Our dog LOVED being at Camp Braveheart and will be going back very soon!" "What a wonderful woman. Lula loved her from the first moment she met Analisa. Her home was very nice and Lula was taken on walks each day. Analisa sent us pictures each day so we could see her in her daily stay. Analisa would be a five star or higher................." "My dog is an eight year old rescue. He has separation and anxiety issues which make it challenging to find overnight care. He was immediately comfortable with this caregiver. Her home and grounds were ideal. She was very accommodating and a joy to work with. She went to the effort to text pictures of my dog as he enjoyed walks on one of the trails on her property. I can recommend her without reservation and feel certain I will use her again! My dog gives her 2 paws up!" "Trace's time with Analisa & Rick was great. He came back his usual playful self. After a previously difficult boarding experience elsewhere, this was a great relief to us! Our dog had a better time there than he did at home. Analisa & Rick took excellent care of him & treated him like a member of their family. We have found a new "retreat" for Trace when we're away from home!" "I adopted a lab mix from the humane society 2 years ago. This little fellow had some anxiety issues and had been taken and returned to the humane society at least twice before I found him. When I need to board Vega, I take him to BRAVEHEART. Analisa and Rick take such good care of him; they welcome him into their home and treat him as their own pet. Vega is not nervous at all about going there; in fact he gets excited and likes it. I used to take him to a kennel with lots of other dogs, but BRAVEHEART is so much more homey and caring. I would recommend BRAVEHEART to anyone who considers his or her pet a member of the family. Analisa takes special care CONNECTING with your special one and my VEGA is always happy to go there." "Batingeaux thoroughly enjoyed her Christmas vacation with Analisa and Rick and she is looking forward to a return visit!" "We have a large Berner who is sweet but spoiled. She has allergies and needs meds for that and for arthritis. Analisa made sure Suni had all her meds and supplements. We tried putting Suni is a kennel a few times but but every time she came home stressed and with diarrhea. Not anymore!! We were fortunate to find Analisa....She is so good with Suni and Suni likes to hang out with her dog Sierra. She sent pictures and updated us often on how Suni was doing. Her location is perfect for dogs.... Suni loved to spend time on both the back and front fenced in porches. The wooded setting and trails were great for daily walks. This was Suni's second vacation with Analisa and we hope she will let us bring Suni back next time we have to be away. It is great to be on vacation and know that Suni is happy and so well taken care of. Thanks again, Analisa!" "Our dogs had a GREAT experience. They were happy, well cared for and sad to leave Analisa's home. Our golden, Shayna even got a bath and she loved it. No hesitation on returning again and they were treated far better than being placed in a kennel. Their yard was great and they had plenty of exercise. Give her a call for your pet and you will be glad you did." "Fantastic care for my Wheaten!"

Analisa was everything that we could have hoped for in a pet sitter! She sent daily photos and videos of our pets to let us know they were doing great while my mom was away. I couldn't be more pleased with how everything turned out and I would highly recommend Analisa to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter! Thank you so much Analisa!

It was very difficult to find a sitter that would care for my three girls and many many plants! I have three rescue dogs that have never been out of my site for the 10 years I’ve owned them. This was extremely hard to find someone I could trust for something so important and foreign to my dogs. It was my daughter’s destination Wedding, so I had no choice. After reading the reviews on Analisa, I decided on a meet and greet. I had already interviewed another sitter from another site and was not impressed. It only took a few seconds for my dogs to give me the ok once Analisa walked through the door. Her energy is amazing and my one dog who is extremely shy and cautious and barks at everyone went right up to her and let Analisa pet her! It was the first time ever that she has responded to someone like that - even family! After a thorough meeting, my husband and I knew she was our Angel! I never worried once about their care. Analisa sent texts and pics three times a day and I could see how happy my pups were. We had a fabulous time and knew that if we wanted to stay even longer, the pups were in good hands and wouldn’t have minded a bit. Everything was in order and my plants were thriving when we arrived home. She is a gem and I can’t imagine there is a better pet sitter out there anywhere! Many many thanks to Analisa for being there for us! She is definitely a part of the family now!

Analisa is a excellent caregiver. She took great care of our 90 lb. sweet girl. Lots of exercise was given along with belly rubs and cuddles. Daily pictures were sent which helped us feel confident that Analisa took great care of our dog.

The three pups were so well cared for ....Analisa just stepped in and carried on, keeping everything going in harmonious order. I can't thank her enough! You will be fortunate indeed, if she is available to sit for your dog(s)
