*Compassionate, Patient Pet Sitter*
Pet care experience
Hey there! When it comes to your pets, why leave anything to chance? You can count on me to treat them with all the love and care they deserve. As a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet sitter, I pour my heart into ensuring the comfort, health, and safety of your pets. With over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in various settings, I've learned a thing or two about what makes them wag their tails or purr with contentment. I'm committed to providing a premium experience for your furry friends. Understanding animal behavior is a big passion of mine, and I'm laying the groundwork to earn a degree in animal behavior. Currently, I'm focusing on getting my prerequisites done online to prepare for that next chapter, all to ensure I can offer the best care possible for our furry friends. Dogs & cats bring so much love & joy to our lives - my job is to give them some of that love back. They're not just animals to me; they're cherish companions. It's this connection that fuels my passion & drives me to make a positive impact on their lives. From my early days at PetSmart's Dog Hotel to my time spent fostering kittens and cats at Adopt & Shop in Culver City, my life has always revolved around animals. I also have extensive experience working with pets who have faced challenging pasts or suffer from separation anxiety. My approach is rooted in patience and compassion, and my goal is at creating a safe and secure environment where they can feel at ease and thrive during their time with me. I'm excited to bring my experience and love for animals to your pets. Creating a safe, comfortable experience is my priority. Can't wait to meet you and your furry friends!
