18. JulIa V.
About: I have owned several breeds and types of pets throughout my life. This even includes the care of exotic animals like Ferrets and Birds. I have two cats that I have raised from week 5 of their life, as well as a Great Pyrenees who require a great amount of care. I work with animals from a compassion standpoint, never with sternness or negative reinforcement. I am a freelance photographer, so my schedule for caring for your pet is very flexible. I travel frequently but am never gone for longer than a few days. Setting my own schedule means I can prioritize your pet care. I take great care to leave things as they were when I arrived and ensure that the visit is a positive experience that brightens your pet's day. I value your privacy and am just there to do my job. Please leave a list of instructions and I will keep their routine going.
