About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was little, around 11 years old, but have lived with cats since I was 2 years old. I do have a senior cat, and ferret. Im experienced in giving cats, dogs and ferrets medication for health issues they have had in the past. I’m not expert in everything, but I’m not afraid to learn! I’m currently working full time, but enjoy a busy schedule and a good routine. If I need a specific day off, I can work it out.

I’ve had experience with rodents, birds, and dogs.
