What Have We Done Lately?

Best Friend Errand Service  Helps With Pets & Events!

 
While the owner was away the cats did play!  Our customer travels frequently and usually the trips are just a couple of days so her cats are ok as long as she puts out extra food and water.  This time she would be away a few extra days and wanted to make sure the kitties were cared for properly.  We stopped by the house every day to check on her furry friends and left a full report on the counter for her when she returned.
 
Our customer was hosting a big event in Indiana.  She needed to be there the day before the event to make sure everything was ready to go.  She had arranged for a bus to take some of the guests to the event and called us to greet people as they got to the bus meeting point and confirm that the bus didn't leave until all the guests schedule to ride the bus had arrived.  When the bus left for Indiana we called her to confirm that everyone was on their way and ready for the big event.
