I can't say enough good things about EaseMyMind! Daniela is the owner and I don't think she…read moremonitors this Yelp page but I since many people look to Yelp to find services, I had to make sure I put something on here as well! I had so much trouble finding a sitter, I contacted two other places and one NEVER returned my call and the other couldn't come on to Fort Hood...luckily, however, the 2nd person I contact recommended me to Daniela. First of all, the website for EaseMyMind is fantastic. It has a customer portal that you can create an account on and enter all the details about your furbabies and it has online scheduling so you can easily schedule and manage everything right from there. But, on top of that, Daniela has no issue communicating via text on top of that. I scheduled my free meet & greet with and she stayed for I think about an hour getting to know my pups, seeing where they sleep, where all of their food and things are, how they react to strangers and what all of their little quirks are.She brought all the paperwork with her and explained everything to me and told me I could text her whenever I needed to with questions or concerns. After everything was officially scheduled and I dropped off my key to her, the payment process was super easy too as she has an online payment system that you can use. I also love that there is only one fee for the visit and no surcharge for having multiple pets in one household (we have 3 dogs so that could be pricey!). On the day of my day trip out of town, I text Daniela to let her know when we actually left so she could make sure the first sitter visit wasn't too early or too late. A few hours later I received a pet journal notification in my e-mail with an entry from the pet sitter telling me what was done on the visit and how the dogs were doing as well as pictures of all of them. It was super easy to view everything from my phone and it was reassuring that all my dogs were happy and that there were no complications. Later on in the day, I logged in to my account and realized I made a mistake on some of the notes I left for the sitter. On my account, I asked the sitter to feed them dinner at the 2nd visit but on a note I left on their food I said to feed at the last visit. Luckily I caught that mistake at the same time as the sitter and they were able to get the correct information from me so the pups could be fed at the correct time. What made it so easy is that Daniela was easily available via text so we could get eveything sorted out quickly. For the rest of the day I got my updates and when I go home that night my furbabies seemed much less stressed over me being gone for 12 hours+ hours and I came home to find that my sitter had even washed their food bowls, which was so nice! :) Needless to say, I'll continue to use EaseMyMind in the future.

I just returned from a four-day weekend without my two dogs. EaseMyMind took excellent care of "my…read moregirls" while I was gone. Both my dogs have never been kenneled, and one is a rescue who had separation anxiety issues when I adopted her a year ago. These issues have greatly reduced over time, but I was still worried about using a kennel or leaving her for more than 6 hours at a time. EaseMyMind was very thorough in their intake interview and I greatly appreciated the text updates three times a day. I think the photos, QR codes, and written logs give clients piece of mind while they are away. I am very happy with how my dogs were cared for while I was on vacation and hope to use them in the future! I used a doggie daycare service with sad results, so I am very happy to have found a way to keep my dogs at home in a safe and familiar environment.

Katie Lingerfelt, with Karma Dog Training, is absolutely amazing. My husband and I left our year…read moreold mastiff/bulldog mix with her for 3 weeks to do some board and train. We were completely amazed with the progress he made during his stay; all of his habits we'd hope to break and the new ones we hoped he'd gain (jumping up on visitors, begging, off-leash training, walking, fetch, recall, sit, stay, lay down, go to your bed, and so many more) far exceeded our expectations. She not only did an amazing job with his training but also including him as her family, and introducing him to several different environments that we never expected. She introduced him to children, strangers, dogs, and cats. I can't speak highly enough of the training Diezel received during his stay with Katie and her family. We will always hold our dogs to this standard now and will definitely be using Katie for our future pups. My husband and I couldn't ask for a better dog, thanks to Katie and her ability to bring out the best in him.

Penelope got to interact with other puppies and people and got the socialization that's so important as a puppy. While Penelope thought she was just playing she was actually learning at the same time - sit, down, leave it, walk on loose lead, stay, and even learned about not jumping on people. All the dog owners reinforce training even when the puppies are on off leash play time. Katie's classes are a very relaxed learning environment with Katie's extended knowledge to help with problem issues. I can not recommend these puppy classes any higher for anyone with a new puppy.

I could tell she was very knowledgeable, caring and compassionate towards dogs. I set up an appointment with Christina and invited her out to my house.

She followed up with us and provided information on training aides. Most importantly, I want to stress that she's a dog lover and I have complete faith in her with my dog.

My dog, Harvey and I had been working with a trainer weekly, however we weren't getting the…read moreexpertise Harvey and our family required. Harvey was starting to have guarding and reactivity issues, so we had to step-up the training. Julie at New Vistas was recommended by a friend, so we called her up for help. After discussing his issues, she provided a very thorough consultation and we opted to move forward with the month-long 'Board and Train' immersive. While we had to wait to get Harvey in, the wait was WELL WORTH IT! The training she provided for Harvey (and us each week) was invaluable. She spent many hours training him at New Vistas, and in various locations engaging with different people to work on his reactivity challenges. While training him, she also equipped us with techniques to better manage him. Julie's training style, professionalism and admiration of dogs is what really sets her apart. We trust her wholeheartedly with our dog, and couldn't recommend her training services more. Thank you Julie!!

She was also a runner and escaped every chance she got. Within a few sessions this dog had totally changed. She's bright, energetic and happy. And we can let her off leash and not worry about her bolting from us. However, more personal to me are my 4 rescue dogs. Over the summer I added a 4th dog, Tiffany, and that totally changed the dynamic of my household. After a few sessions with the group as a whole Tiffany spent the month of December boarded with Julie. This was the game changer. We honestly didn't know if Tiffany would make it past day 1 because she was so attached to me. After her daily sessions with Julie she was a new dog. She's confident to be alone, plays well with the other dogs and is the sweetest thing ever. I truly believe Julie made this happen for us and I am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for training for their dogs from potty training, walking loosely on leash, stay commands, come, fearfulness, you name it and she does it. You won't be disappointed!!! And your dogs will be so much happier after working with her.
