Great job of working with my dog! She started off not trusting Kya at all and now Kya can come in and take her out for a walk without my assistance! I hope for them to continue this friendship and get closer with trust

Thank you for taking care of my babies. Kya really went above and beyond and I want to give her credit publicly for doing so! My younger dog was beginning to get separation anxiety and started to make a mess after. Kya, who really could have just walked them and left it be, took great effort to clean up the mess that my youngest dog made! I came home to a peaceful house, it was nice not having to work and then some back to a destroyed house so I m very grateful for Kya and will be utilizing her in the future if she s willing. Thank you Kya!
