About: I've had pets my entire life. Most of my family has worked in shelters, behaviors, or vet work. I'm going to school for Veterinary Technician.

I will not be holding pets at my house due to the other animals here, but I will walk, check in, and maybe even sit for the owners. I'm willing to do anything for your pet.
