House Sitting • Jan 15, 2024

I need to preface this by saying, we have some difficult dogs. Three German Shepherds. One older girl who is a very sweet lady, a 3 year old huge boy who hasn’t been fixed and doesn’t like men, and a very energetic and demanding one year old. The boy has given warning bites to a few people, and won’t let a man anywhere near him. The young girl will bark like crazy and jump right in your face when you see her. We also have three wonderful cats, that whoever is caring for them needs to make sure they aren’t being picked on by the two younger dogs. Because of this, whenever the house is left, the cats must be gathered and brought to their own space for the time being. All of this being said, Kala handled it all making it look easy. She remained calm as she met the extremely energetic and nervous dogs. She learned their mannerisms, applied her knowledge of dogs, and was able to win them over with ease. She developed a plan after meeting them, and after only two weeks of seeing them once weekly was confident seeing them without us. She got us on the schedule with a weekly drop by, to allow the pets to continue to get to know her. After each one we got pictures of our pets and a wonderful pet report card that told us about her progress with the dogs and anything else you would want to know. We left our home in her hands confidently while we traveled internationally for 9 days. We got updates each day with pictures, she kept in touch, and even was able to overcome some pretty steep obstacles to make sure our pets were well cared for. Our home was well maintained, and we felt safe with her there. I would highly recommend Kala to anybody for their pet and house sitting needs. She is a real professional, cares about your pets and home, and cares about her job. We feel so lucky to have met her! Thanks again Kala, for allowing us to travel without having to worry about things at home. You really do rock!
