I am pleased to be able to write this testimonial for Holly. I have known Holly for at least 8 years and have seen her in multiple settings, e.g., dog training classes, agility classes, pet sitting my own dogs. I believe she likes dogs better than people. Having a Vet Tech background is also very reassuring when I leave my dogs with Holly. If they need meds, she knows how to give them and would definitely notice if anything were off with one of my fur-babies. Give her a try, you won't be disappointed.

Holly Nelson has taken care of our dog for 5 years. Holly is so focused on the pet she is taking care of that she does not take her eyes off the pet when we are talking. She is the most caring, loving person and I know Bob, our dog, loves being around her as he runs to her when he sees her. When we travel I NEVER have to worry about our dog being loved and well cared for. I have given out Holly's name to our friends with animals because I know they will think highly of her like my husband I do. Holly definitely chose the right occupation because you can see in her facial expressions that she loves animals. Minerva Haugstad

We have had Holly as a dog walker and pet sitter for 7years and.we cannot say enough great things about her. She has given us great customer service, she is trustworthy, true to herword,conscientious,hardworking,professional,gives 110%,going above and beyond, takes initiative,and is personable. Holly uses sound judgement and has a wide breath of knowledge of dogs-temperament,type,health and behavior. She has stayed at our home on many occasions and done a wonderful job. We give her a 6 on a 5 star rating.She gets more kisses from our dog than we do!

Holly has been sitting for my dog family since 2014. I have had multiple senior rescued dogs at a time in my family with different medical issues that she has taken care of wonderfully. I was also a foster of a birthing mom with 4 puppies, that she took over care of when I had to leave town unexpectedly for a family emergency. The puppies and mom were weaned, socialized and cleaned up after so well, I wasn't even missed! I have been gone for periods up to a month and she has taken exceptional care of my dog family. She is dedicated, knowledgeable and responsible. My house is always in perfect condition when I return from my trips and my dogs are all happy and well taken care of. Since she is also a vet tech, she is capable to look after the health and well being of my more senior pets with medical issues. I am always confident that she takes good care of them, as well as knows when to contact me if she has concerns. My heart warms up when I return and see how Holly has loved my dogs while I was away. She considers her dog charges, as part of her extended dog family. I do not have cats, but I am sure she is just as loving and responsible with them as she is with dogs.

Information Holly N. would like to know about your pet

Does your pet have any medical issues, special needs, Does your dog have any behavior issues, has the dog ever bit anyone, Has your dog ever run away, is your dog chipped, what animal hospital does the pet go to and what is the address of the hospital, what is the doctors name. Does the dog get treats? Where is the dogs sleeping area, I would need a detailed list of what the dog eats, how many times a day, where and what are the dogs commands. I don't work with Pit bulls or any mix of Pit bulls.

A typical day

when taking a dog on a walk it is the owners first choice where they would like me to talk the dog. I do have knowledge of many parks to walk dogs with the owners ok. playtime is time to play with dog toys, give massages, or just belly rubs and back scratches or just quality time petting and love. Animals are my lives passion they always came first to spoil and make them feel like a King or Queen.
