My name is Kayla born and raised in Kailua. I am a vet tech in the community with over 8+ years’ experience. I’ve been working with animals since I was a kid from pet sitting, dog walking to veterinary technician. I am also a forever dog mom, as I have two Staffordshire terriers.
I saw a huge need in our pet community for more personalized, one on one attention, for all size dogs. The bonus was the convenience of being at the client's home, without the stress of packing up your kids and lugging in your pet to the vet office for a short service that cost a lot money.
My goal is to overall keep stress levels down for both Owner and Pet. After much research, Pretty Paws Hawaii was born. I am not a chain and this is not just my business, it is my life. I love what I do. I hope you and your pets will enjoy this wonderful experience as much as I will.
Please allow me to come to the comfort of your home to service your pets with a low stress, no fuss nail trim.
No more stressful trips with your pet(s) to the vet or groomer!

What I do:
With Pretty Paws, you will have 8+ years of experience at your doorstep! I specialize in the care of your pet's nails and provide all of our services in the comfort of your own home.

Additional service are available please contact me for more detailed quote.
Safety:
Your pet’s safety and comfort are our first priority. I pay special attention to older pets and pets with health issues. I will not perform any procedure that causes pain or a level of stress that I think is excessive. Please advise us of any medical, physical, emotional issues, allergies, sensitivities, or pre-existing conditions. (These may include prior surgeries, hip or joint issues, warts, moles, ear infections or skin problems).
If your pet has behavior problems, please let us know. Pretty Paws Hawaii reserves the right to use a muzzle on your pet for safety purposes. Pretty Paws Hawaii reserves the right to refuse service to any pet that I do not feel I can safely trim.
Appointments:
I will arrive as close to the scheduled appointment time as possible, however, due to the nature of the business, sometimes situations occur that will disrupt our daily schedule. This includes traffic, weather, mechanical difficulties, spending more time with an older/younger pet or a difficult pet. The pet’s safety will never be compromised by rushing to meet a schedule. You will be texted when I am on my way and advised of an arrival time when schedules change beyond our control. It’s impossible for us to give exact times, appointments times are ALWAYS based on an estimate.
