I have cats who live on the farm but they do there on thing and get along well with other animals. I can follow instructions well if you have a certain way you would like things done.
“Emily was so wonderful. We all know that someone that can care for your fur baby (just as much as you do) is sometimes hard to find. However, after Day 1 of Emily walking Apollo (out of our 4 walks booked) I did not have to worry one bit. She even spent extra time with him since he was just enjoying his time so much with her. We will definitely reach out to Emily more often for just some extra care/walks now and not only for our of town/special occasions. Thank you so much again Emily!”
