“I would highly recommend Yamila. Yamila and her partner, Brandon are absolute angels. They are great people and so so kind. Not only did they take great care of my dog, Zena, and helped calm her down in the thunderstorm season, they were super accommodating and worked with me to arrange Zena’s drop-off and pick-up times. Yamila is a great communicator and very responsive. My flight was delayed and she was in constant communication with me to have Zena picked up late at night. If you are looking for a sitter, definitely book with Yamila.”
About: I grew up on a farm. I was part of FFA (future farmers of America) and 4H growing up. I’ve cared for animals and their well being all my life. I currently work on a two week rotation. Meaning I’ll be in town for two weeks at a time, and out of town for two weeks. I’ll have weekdays from 8am to 5pm and weekends after 4pm. I have majority of the day to relax and exercise your puppies. I have a fenced in backyard and plenty of room for your pups to enjoy outside or if they are lazy butts; got a couch for them to relax on. I can also take your dogs on walks and or runs if that’s required for them.

About: I’ve had 3+ years in professional dog training as well as kennel care. I have whelped litters of puppies and am well rounded for any level of dog. I currently train dogs in general obedience and give riding lessons part-time. I do this all from my home so I would be accessible at any time to your pets needs. My farm is over four acres and is surrounded by corn fields. I have two very well trained dogs that help me socialize client dogs. In the evenings I do crate all dogs.
