“I am always very nervous when I leave my furry girl alone. It was the first time we booked Qutress and she did it amazing.

I would repeat her service as much I need it.”

20. Nicole D.
About: I have always owned pets. I have had cats, dogs, fish, turtles, hamsters, birds, etc.I have had a Pekingese dog and a Labrador. My family has always loved pets. We have had a Persian cat and now we have a Siamese named Neo. But he does not stay with me, he stays with my family and I see him when I visit home. Family and friends have relied on me a lot to take care of their pets (cats and dogs) when they’re out of town. I have taken care of a Chowchow for a friend and two Poodles for family friends. I have also taken care of my friends cats in their home when they had to leave for a few days. I am a student and I have free time during the weekends or weekdays in the afternoons/evenings. I am able to walk, play or take care for pets. I make sure I know their schedules, their intakes as in food, water, treats, medicine or vitamins. I try to pay attention to them all the time and play with them.
