“My Millie LOVED Briana! She let us schedule a meet-and-greet with her own pups. When we first arrived, Millie was so excited that she ran to the door to go in. When I picked her up, she seemed very happy and content. She was even a bit of a naughty girl and jumped out of the car to tell Briana bye one last time!”

“Alicia did just an outstanding job with Lucky our cat during our 10 day trip! From the twice-daily pics she sent, we could quickly see that Lucky had a new best friend and really enjoyed their visits together! Alicia even went out of her way to clean up an oops! Lucky made by eating a little too quickly...See was extremely conscientious in her work & went out of her way to make sure the house was secure & safe for us!

“Kayla! Took incredible care of my two cats over the thanksgiving holiday. She managed to enjoy her T-day and decorate her home for Christmas but still made sure my kitties were happy. Who could ask for more?”

Fern L.

“Kyla was wonderful with our 2 cats. Her time was flexible and she was easy to book with over Christmas. During our initial meet and greet, the natural way she interacted with both Magik and Spooky, learning her history with animals, and her authenticity put my nerves at ease. During our time away, Kyla kept us up to date on her visits, how our cats were doing and included pictures. When we returned home, both cats were happy doing great. Kyla will be our go to anytime we are away.”

About: I’ve had pet dogs my entire life. My beloved childhood dog was a German Shepard named Stella, and the dog I had from my late childhood till recently was my soul dog, a Shih Tzu named Daisy.

I love to learn about specifics of dog breeds and what makes them special/stand apart from the other breeds!

I love short walks and long walks, and also exploring local nature trails! From German Shepherds to Shih Tzu’s, I’ve learned to love dogs of all sizes! Walking your dog is a necessary part of their wellbeing, and I intend to create a safe environment for your dog to enjoy nature and stretch their 4 legs!
