Billie A.
“We are so grateful to Billie for the outstanding care she gave to our beloved Simba while we were away. Simba is our 7-year-old mini dachshund who lives with IVDD, which means he needs a little extra help and attention to stay comfortable and mobile. Despite his condition, he’s full of character and loves life, and Billie took the time to really understand his needs, his routine, and his personality. From his daily physio exercises, mobility corrections during his wobbly walks, to his regular care and cuddles, Billie handled everything with such kindness, attentiveness, and genuine love for Simba. She kept us regularly updated, which gave us enormous peace of mind knowing he was not only safe, but thriving in her care. Coming home to a happy, settled Simba was the greatest reassurance that he had been in the best hands. Billie’s knowledge, patience, and compassionate approach made all the difference, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for a pet with additional needs. She is an absolute star.”
