Pet care experience

Experienced with various animals

My husband, Clifton Hicks, and I work from home and have experience with dogs, cats, pigs, guinea fowl, chickens, hampsters, guinea pigs, ducks, fish and goats. We are originally from Georgia and FL, we formerly worked for the National Park Service and US Forest Service and have settled here in SE Tennessee. We have each experienced a life time of pet care before and after meeting. To us, animals are angels! We have 1 well behaved, friendly one year old male cat and 1 mixed brindle eleven year old dog. Clifton works from home as an instrument builder, and provides banjo lessons to his clients across the globe. I am a real estate agent and I have a home office and an office at Weichert Realtors in Etowah, TN. We enjoy helping people and animals! And they are our priority above all other tasks.

Robyn did an outstanding job taking care of our laying hens! She is extremely responsible and a very genuine and trustworthy person. I will definitely book her again and can't recommend her highly enough.

Robyn has dropped in with my two pups, plus a meet and greet once, and everytime its gone well. She also is flexible and happy to help when I had to help my friend with their dog so she had to juggle a third pup. She did so with no complaints. Will happily keep booking with her 🤍

Robyn did a great job. Exactly what we hoped for. Handling two dogs you’ve never met before can be a like to take on, but she did a good job and the dogs really enjoyed her company!

Clifton and/or I are home at all times. We are happy to help on short notice and have a flexible work-life schedule. We enjoy using amazon and walmart delivery because we can spend more time at home building the farm :D.
