Pet care experience

I have a genuine love for animals. I own a 3yr old mixed breed of my own names Sapphire who loves to play! I used to work in the ACC and have interned for A pet grooming business. I have an apt big enough for play time, nap time, and eating. My neighborhood is super dog friendly and welcomes all pets. I’m very hands on when it comes to walking the dogs. Some are very dog reactive and simply not paying attention to your surroundings could cause a serious accident with canine. I am fearless when it comes to thinking fast and being able to handle feral animals ( this was a huge requirement at the Animal Care Center). You won’t regret this choice, PROMISE!!

This person “took care” of my 3 dogs (2 huskies and one shih tzu) for 5 days and they did not follow any of my care instructions, did not walk them, likely kept them crated the entire time (I have a collar that counts steps and tracks gps in case anything happens) and they had 400-1200 steps when normally they are walking 12k-18k steps. Secondly, they are not supposed to eat together, let alone crammed in a cage, as was specified by my instructions on this app and in person. Of course mako is not eating because she can’t even get to her food in that tiny crate. I am also quite convinced that you just left them crated during the entire stay because even on the rare occasions that i don’t walk them (usually because i’m sick), they still average about 1200 steps. For your future information it is animal abuse to crate more than one dog in the same crate, and definitely not good to crate 3 dogs when two are much bigger than the third. When I returned back home with my dogs, they drank water as if they hadn’t had any in days i have never seen them that thirsty in my life, even after extra long walks. I am reaching out to you now for a refund for this lack of care. I have proof of them not being walked because the collars have gps on them, which i informed you about, and keeps track of their health and fitness. Also the video you sent of them eating all in one crate is clear evidence of you not following the care plan I had given. I understand that I am not perfect and was late to pick up and drop off, and i apologize for that, but that doesn’t excuse you not taking care of my dogs.

Malikah did a great job. Cody felt very comfortable and got along great. He came back very relaxed and I would definitely recommend her.

True to her bio - guaranteed peace of mind! We booked the week before our trip when our other sitter had to cancel last minute. Amy was a blessing to find. She was confident and took care of them with little instructions. You could tell in one meeting that she has experience. Our pups were in great hands.
