Safety, trust & environment

Over the years, I've learned how to provide a safe and fun environment for my furry visitors. My house has a fenced backyard where they are free to play, take potty breaks, and soak in some sun while I keep an eye on them. Additionally, my house is child-proofed and pet-proofed to ensure the safety of my two little ones and your furry one while simultaneously making them feel at home 🏠 If you have any special requests that I can help with, please send me a message and I am more than happy to help.

Information Shadid D. would like to know about your pet

What helps their anxiety if they have any? Do they prefer sleeping in a bed or crate? Do they get along with kids? How often do they take potty breaks?

A typical day

On a typical day, the first thing I do is let the pets go out in the backyard for their morning potty break and play to get some energy out. We then come back inside and I prep their food bowls based your instructions and refill water bowls. Potty breaks as needed during the day and giving them treats is my favorite part.

Drop off and pick up process was smooth and quick. Our cats were very well taken care of, we got regular updates and pictures. They’re now back home and seemed happy and well fed. Highly recommend!

Shadid kept our 2 dogs for a few hours and they are not easy. They were well cared for and were happy. I would definitely use her again.

Shadid took such great care of my recently adopted and a bit anxious girlie. I truly appreciated the update texts with pictures as well!! Would definitely book again with Shadid in the future.
