Calista and her roommates were amazing! They loved having my pups! With her professional expertise in animal care I felt very safe leaving them with her. She kept me updated everyday and whenever I asked with pics and videos! I can’t thank them enough! Highly recommended 100%

Cali was absolutely wonderful with our pets. We have a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. They were all taken well care of and we will be keeping her in mind for the future.

I have three of most high drive and crazy pups and Cali is absolutely amazing with them!! I am truly blessed that I have found her to care for my girls she is so caring and gentle with them and has so much patience! She really knows her stuff about dogs and has been an amazing person to learn from and I’m so happy with the progress my girls have made in the short time we have been working with Cali!!

Calista trained my Alaskan Malamute in obedience and therapy dog work. Calista also started socializing my puppy at 10 weeks. Lumi would not be the dog she is today without Calista’s knowledge and guidance.

Schedule

With being a new college grad, I am still looking for my dream job. I know wherever I land, it will involve canines. My current personal responsibilities are limited. So, I will have plenty of time to care for your companion.

Pets

A typical day

Mental stimulation is just as important to me as physical. I will make sure they get a mix of both that are of course within their personal needs. I love providing sniffing breaks, lick mats, playtime, and many others.
