I went to the mainland for 10 days for the very first time in 6 years. I have a large number of pets who require very detailed care. As a result, I very seldom get to go on any kind of vacation. I was very nervous leaving my birds with anybody. Some are on medications, several are "special needs", and all of them are loved to their very core my their mama bear...ME!
I found Savena's ad on CL and gave her a call. She was and is very professional and exuded confidence right off the bat. She didn't "noticeably" flinch as I explained to her what all would be involved and the number of animals she would have to care for.
She came over for about 3 training sessions before the actual day to make sure she was comfortable with the morning routine of my beloved parrots. By the time I left for my trip I was still a little nervous but knew my kids were in good hands.
She was on time every morning to start at 6am and did everything that was on her task list. She went above and beyond my expectations by sending pictures of the kids and showing that the work was complete and done correctly every day. She even spent her own time letting me do Google Hangouts with them when I needed a fix!
Her rates are more than fair and I would trust her any time with all my animals and even to live in if need be for longer trips. Finally my chains are broken and I can get away now and then thanks to Savena.
I give her my strongest recommendation because my husband, who did not go on vacation with me this time, said even HE trusts her and that's saying something since we're so protective over our "kids". Great job Savena! Can't wait for my next vacay! read more
