My love for animals really continues to grow and grow. I currently have 2 pets of my own. A 3 year old English Cocker Spaniel named Archie and a 4 month old kitten named Loki, and yes they are besties.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, attention, and adaptability I bring to every pet I look after.

“My dog has given her paw & wags of approval to ReShan. As a rescue, she takes her time to give trust & affection, & she has given both to ReShan. He has helped with walking & boarding my dog, who is large, strong & not well-trained. ReShan has her walking nice on the leash, giving me hope that I can also achieve it. He treats us both with love & respect. I am so thankful for his involvement in our lives. Thank you, ReShan, for your loving care of my best buddy.”
