Pet care experience

I always loved animals! Ever since i was a kid i would bring all sorts of injured or abandoned animals back home to take care of them in whatever capacity they needed. My mom would say that we have an animal sanctuary — i have taken care of injured pigeons, cats, dogs, rabbits among other animals and birds too! At 12 y/o i started a small foundation to take care of the street animals in my locality — assisted the vet to help support any injured babies, fed them daily and went house to house to see if we could get any donations! And i would actively go over to friends and families homes and take care of their babies! I also have fostering experience - took dogs and cats in till they found their own homes! And now i have a ginger baby cat whom i love dearly! And i want to make your babies feel loved too :)) My policy is a lot of patience and love because they are also trying to grow up in a human world 🥰

I wanna say that Shikha did an amazing job taking care of my cat Gattous when I was away traveling out of Vienna for a few days. Gattous can be a little picky with people, but he felt comfortable with her very quickly, which says a lot. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated with photos and little messages and that made me feel really relaxed while I was away. I could tell that Gattous was getting lots of attention and playtime and care. When I came back, he was happy, calm, and clearly well looked after. I’d definitely trust Shikha to watch him again and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter in Vienna.

I discovered Shikha through a friend of mine when i needed a last minute dog sitter this past month. And all i gotta say is WOW. We chilled together with my dog Lucy for about 2 hours when Shikha came to our place and from the moment we started talking i felt so at ease and comfortable around her. Same for my dog who wagged her tail and was running around Shikha as if she knew her for years. During Shikha‘s 2 day stay at my place with Lucy she regularly played with her, gave her treats and took her out walking to some really beautiful dog parks, where she also played fetch with Lucy. Shikha sent me pictures and videos of Lucy daily, where Lucy seemed so happy. All this combined took all of my anxiety away and made Shikha a very trusted dog sitter for me. Next time when i need someone for Lucy Shikha will be my first choice!

I met Freddie at the same time I met Shikha. That is how they function, a unit. There’s no Freddie without Shikha. If Freddie is not okey, Shikha is not okey. Just like a parental figure, Shikha has given the love, care and attention that any animal needs. Even as a cat, he has been cared for and still continues to but having a strict diet, regular health care and atmosphere that a cat needs. Outside of this, I see the humanity of Shikha by how she intercedes with Freddie. From the secret language, the code switching and even the gameplay they have. I can say that this is how I believe every animal should be treated, irrespective. Because at the end of the day, we share this planet we call home with them 💜

Shikha is one of the most honest and trustworthy people I have ever met in my life! She is very communicative, sweet, funny, smart, nurturing and overall spreads good energy everywhere she goes I would leave my pet, kids, inheritance, MY OWN LIFE with this human being and I wouldn’t blink twice (speaking from experience)
