“I met Annette in 2020 after bringing home my 8 week old Havanese puppy Copper. As a first time pet owner, I was totally and completely overwhelmed! She has been a godsend. She is patient, knowledgeable, and truly cares about all of our well-being. She is responsive to questions, even between training sessions, and provides helpful resources for use at home. She took the time to understand our family's needs and Copper's personality and tailored training to fit us all. Thanks to Annette, Copper is a happy, well adjusted and well behaved dog. When walking him off-leash in the park, I always get compliments on what a "well-trained" dog he is and I owe that all to Annette. Copper regularly boards with her when we go on vacation and we are confident that he is well cared for. When we come home, he is always happy, and better behaved than when we left him. Annette provides personalized care and attention to his needs and makes sure he has plenty of exercise. He is brushed nightly and bathed regularly. We appreciate the daily updates and photos, which always put a smile on our faces, as we see what a fabulous time he has with Annette and his friends in the pack. Our whole family has peace of mind when Copper is with Annette as we know she truly loves animals and it shows in every interaction. We would never leave him with anyone else! I highly recommend Annette for anyone looking for the best pet services in Vancouver."

"Annette's teaching and coaching have transformed my 2 year old pup's and my relationship. We've learned to work together and keep focused on the tasks at hand, and have lots of fun at the same time. I have learned so much from Annette's expert guidance".

"It is truly a gift to have found someone as professional and trustworthy as Annette. I am confident that my fur baby Lola is cared for as if she were Annette's own dog. Being a "working mom", I feel so much better knowing that Lola has had a good run with the group. When I come home, Lola is exhausted and very content! Having used other dog walking services, it's so refreshing to know that Lola is not on the clock with Annette. When I consider the cost of dog walking, Annette's service is money very well spent and I feel satisfied knowing that I am getting great value and a healthy, happy dog!! I would highly recommend Annette to anyone looking for top quality pet services.”

"I have trusted Annette Albrecht of “From The Heart Pet Services” to walk my beloved Standard Poodle, Bella, since she was four months old. I am very pleased with Annette’s loving but firm and disciplined approach with Bella and have learned a lot of useful information from her about dealing with a larger, highly energetic dog.
I particularly value Annette’s small group approach which allows her both to give the dogs individual attention, while also maintaining control of them as a group. I know that Bella benefits from the “doggy etiquette” which is reinforced on her outings. Finally, I love the pictures which I receive of Bella’s outings and it makes me feel good to observe how excited she is to see Annette and to go on her adventures.”

“Annette is very attuned to what animals need on many levels, so I can leave my treasured pet with her in full confidence of her good care and good judgment. I can have a happier vacation myself knowing that my dog is also having a happy vacation with “From The Heart Pet Services.”

“If you are looking for assistance of any kind regarding your pets: cats or dogs, I would highly recommend “From the Heart Pet Services”. I have a very sensitive 13 year old dog named Sammie. Annette takes care of him so beautifully, with such care and attentiveness, that whenever I have gone away and returned he seems even happier than before we left! Annette takes Sammie out for walks three times a week as I am at work and don't want him to be alone. She is gentle and responsible. She puts Vitamin E on his nose, takes lovely photos of him in the park and treats him with dignity and care. She regularly communicates with me about how he is doing and goes out of her way to brush him, bring him treats and inform me of potential aides, such as a gentleman who builds ramps for stairways, as Sammie's ability to climb stairs is being increasingly challenging. Annette really has a gift with animals, as I would not entrust my best friend to just anyone. If you have any pet needs at all, do call Annette.”
