I have two naughty dogs who don't do well with separation. Our amazing pet sitter (or dog nanny as our daughter calls it) took incredible care of them, provided detailed daily updates, and also (bonus) acted as a "house sitter" in a way (see service list on their website). Dogs are never left alone for more than a few hours, get walks, playtime and pets, and get to be in their comfortable and familiar space. For us, this service made way more finanial and practical sense than putting 2 pets in a boarding facility (no need to struggle with drop off and pick up times and all the paperwork of a kennel plus no risk of injury or disease exposure). Communication was stellar from start to finish. Will be booking again and again for all our travel needs.

Absolutely Thee BEST Pet Sitter!…read more We cannot say enough wonderful things about Shelly! She did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our fur baby, Kolohe, while we were away. It meant so much to us that she came by for a little mini meet-and-greet beforehand to reconnect with Kolohe, especially since it had been several months since she last watched our baby girl. Shelly was incredibly attentive and went above and beyond with every visit. She made sure Kolohe always had fresh food and water, kept her food bowl clean and free of pesky ants, played with her using her favorite toy, gave her treats, and cleaned her litter box. She even took the time to clean up a hairball and a dead cockroach that Kolohe had left behind and did a little mini vacuuming to get the ants cleaned up and away from her food area. Those little extra touches meant so much to us because we knew Kolohe was being cared for with genuine love and attention--not just checked on. Then, when the hurricane storm was happening and we were off island, Shelly went above and beyond yet again. She made a last-minute trip over to check on Kolohe, give her some extra love, make sure the windows were closed, and make sure our baby girl was safe while we were unable to get home. Knowing someone we trusted was there for her during the storm gave us such peace of mind. Shelly is kind, loving, communicative, dependable, and truly treats our Kolohe like her own. We especially appreciate how communicative she is because we always knew how our girl was doing while we were away. We would HIGHLY recommend Shelly to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies. She is truly the best, and as long as we are living here on island and have a fur baby, Shelly will always be our first choice! Thank you, Shelly, for loving and caring for our Kolohe like she was your own! We appreciate you more than you know!

I really don't want to give Marie a less than stellar review because for the most part I really…read morelike Marie and I think her intentions are good. I think there are some issues that were costly to me that might help you avoid the same. I'll start with the cons and end with the pros: Marie is all about the money and herself, first and foremost. You're not entering into a partnership. She's the boss. She can bend her rules, ask you to be flexible with scheduling and rescheduling but you can not. There is a language barrier that became more obvious over time. English is not Marie's native tongue. She also doesnt hear well (I dont either) so masking isnt an option. Lack of clarity in communication was a huge issue. Pros: Marie is positive, all positive, and uses Skinner's operant conditioning as her model. Lots of treats and rewards and ignoring the negatives. She understands dogs and their language. I saw great improvement in my dogs and their reactivity and regression in their potty habits while working with her. That improvement was in the first 3-5 sessions though. After that it was practice of the same with nothing new. I would not recommend buying a package. I quit the training with prepaid training sessions left. Ive worked with excellent trainers so maybe I'm spoiled. There's a lot of good stuff on the internet that's free, like Doggy Dan. In spite of it all, Im grateful for Marie and our time together and the improved relationships with my dogs and their more relaxed way of life since I'm more relaxed.

I was in search of a force free dog trainer after our 8 year old rescue dog had regressed after an event and had become fearful of pretty much everything and she became reactive towards my husband. I remembered a friend had worked with Marie years prior and she was highly recommended so I emailed through the website and received a very speedy, thorough and nice reply from Marie and quickly decided I wanted to work with her. We've also been working remotely with a Veterinary Behaviorist in San Francisco along with our local vet. Although we had not gotten her stabilized on medications, we started training right away. There were months of trying different medications and different doses, and our dog having bad side effects. We had Zoom sessions with Marie throughout this time and she was so helpful and supportive with giving us ideas and suggestions of what to try to get her from being in a frozen state of fear and building her trust and confidence. I just wanted my scared girl to stop hiding and be able to relax on the couch like she used to do. Marie has been so accommodating with our schedule (there were weeks I would postpone and reschedule due to our rescue girl not feeling well). Marie encouraged us to video our training and she would analyze the videos and she has taught me so much about our dogs body language. We have been working with Marie for about 4 months and have seen great improvement. She is off all behaviorial medications and rarely hides. She is much more tolerant of noises and is now eager and more engaged when we train. She is happier and more playful than she's ever been. We never would have gotten this far without Marie's guidance. She truly cares about her clients. She is so knowledgeable and is amazing at what she does. Thank you Marie for helping us build a better relationship with our sweet girl and helping her to gain more confidence!

hot and new on Oahu!…read more Now theres a company that has a treadmill for your dogs! i've done underwater treadmills before with my other dog Nala, but this idea on land is neat too. It might be good for rehab sessions or even if you needed your dog to release their crazy energy. They were at a event in Kapolei this past weekend so we were lucky to try this out. I thought the baby would have been the best at it since he usually has a lot of energy, but i think he was confused and scared, but they did a great job with him tho! They were all very friendly and had great customer service. I also like that they're mobile so you don't have to go to them which saves you a lot of time. I used to drive out to mililani from town and it takes about 45 mins each way, so every little thing is helpful! Not sure if pet insurance covers this type of thing tho! but i see it could be helpful with PT.
