Our Approach

About Us

We, Grant and Elissa Heatherly, are the owners and doggy wait staff here at Santa Clara Pet Vacation. We are in tune with the needs of your pets during their stay. Grant and I are efficient in poop clean up and puppy snuggles. We are lifelong pet owners and have a patient understanding of the needs of many different types of pets. We have a passion for rescue dogs and through our fostering and pet sitting efforts have encountered a wide array of pet behavior, medical conditions, and animal body language. You can be sure to trust us when choosing who to leave your furry loved ones with while you are away.
