“We’ve booked with Kayligh several times for our cat who needs insulin shots and is very human social. He usually gets very lonely without some company. It’s such a difference with him when she comes while we are gone. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life and truly feel called to be around animals. I view animals as a pleasure and not something to take care of or work. Pet care fits into my everyday routine, as I have pets at home. I am constantly thinking about my animals and about their needs. In addition, my dogs sleeps in my bed every night. I care for my pets at home by making sure their needs are always satisfied. I also give them plenty of love. I would care for one’s pet by doing the same things and by making sure the pet is comfortable.
About: I’ve had family dogs for my entire life! I currently own a sweetest dog named Rocky! Everyday I feel like I get to attached with them more than I do with people! Love taking them out on a walk, dog park, or wherever they want me to take them! I have a summer break until like beginning of September! Would rather have weekends to myself until 2-4pm! If you need me during weekends we could definitely make it work! I live in an apartment so it would be better if your fur babies want to stay at their homes! I can do whatever works the best for them!
“Jasmine was wonderful! When my trip was extended due to car trouble, she extended the reservation to cover the days I was out without any problems. She was very patient with my shy cat, and by the end of the stay was even able to pet her. Jasmine also brought in my packages and cleaned up my cat's vomit. I couldn't ask for more.”
