FT medical student & animal lover!

Pet care experience

Since I was 8 years old I’ve been responsible for all sorts of animal care-dogs, cats, pigeons, you name it. I had two dogs growing up (so I have experience with puppy and senior care) and cared for the pets of my community, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes of dogs and cats! I also volunteered at a no-kill animal shelter for four years so I’m comfortable caring for any pets with medical needs or trust issues.

Fakhri is great! Our dog Norman loves her. She’s always on time, takes him for a mile walk everyday and she’s very flexible. 5/5??

Every time I'm out of town, I turn to Fakhri to take care of my best buddy Gary. She has a deep love for all pets and they all love her. She goes out of her way to make sure they feel extra cared for and comfortable. She gives me constant updates about how Gary's doing, is very responsive to any questions I might have, and communicates very kindly and respectfully. Fakhri constantly sends photos of Gary, making me feel relieved and able to enjoy my trips. I understand the nerves that come with looking for a sitter you can truly trust with your best friend, but look no further because Fakhri is as dependable, lovable, and trustworthy as it gets. I come home to a cat who's seemingly happier than when I left him. She's the one I count on repeatedly and I can guarantee you can count on her too.

Fafi is a wonderfully sweet, hard-working, and extremely kind person. She’ll make a perfect dog sitter/Walker. I would gladly hire her to watch my pet.

As new pet owners, my wife and I were so nervous when we were planning our travel across country without our cat, Simba. However, after searching, we finally found our guardian angel, Fakhri. She was an absolute BLESSING!! As soon as she arrived to take care of Simba, our uneasiness was instantly lifted from our shoulders! Fakhri is the kindest, most caring, and trustworthy person that you will ever meet. She took the time to answer any and all questions that we had for her beforehand. While she was taking care of Simba, she would constantly send us updates and photos of our little fur ball even when we didn't ask them of her. She ensured that she followed all special instructions that we requested and always kept our apartment clean no matter the mess caused by our cat. An added bonus to her is that she worked in an animal shelter all throughout her high school years so she has tons of experience when caring for animals of various needs and personalities. If you are looking for a pet sitter, I 1000% recommend Fakhri. She is AMAZING!!! Thank you so much Fakhri for taking care of Simba while we were away. We know he misses you and when we travel next, he will see you again!
