It was a pleasure to look after Jade's lovely natured dog, Ember, at her comfortable, secure, easy-care home. Communications with Jade and her mother before my arrival and during my stay left me feeling welcomed and well prepared to ensure Ember's comfort. Jade even reached out to me pre-visit asking which pantry/household items she could provide in readiness for my stay and Ember was amply supplied with food and toys.

Jade even reached out to me pre-visit asking which pantry/household items she could provide in readiness for my stay and Ember was amply supplied with food and toys. Jade's family/friend also assisted with my travel to and from the airport. I was deeply grateful to Jade for the generousity she showed in gifting me a swim pass & giving me open use of her car that was vital for transporting Ember to her favourite recreational locations. Undoubtedly this enhanced our enjoyment and bonding and saw Ember remain stimulated, happy and relaxed.
