Please let me know of any special accommodations or routines for your pet. I want to ensure they have the best possible stay and experience possible. Do they have any special dietary or other needs I should know about ahead of time?

Michael went above and beyond with our chickens! Even though it appeared at first he had not had a prior experience with hens, he took great care of things. He even anticipated that their water would be frozen in extreme temperatures, and brought along his own water to make sure they had some. He is flexible and very communicative. We will definitely be hiring Michael again!
