About: All fur babies are family!Hey there, pet lovers! I am all about fun and love when it comes to caring for your furry friends. From a young age, I have had an undeniable passion for animals, and it brings me so much joy to provide them with the care and attention they deserve. Starting at the age of 13, I began pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family, and it quickly became clear to me that spending time with animals is a passion of mine. Alongside this, I have also volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I discovered the importance of creating a positive and nurturing environment for our furry companions. I firmly believe that our pets are not just pets; they are cherished family members who bring us unconditional love and happiness. With this mindset, I am committed to treating your fur babies as if they were my own. Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to share my home with 5 large dogs and 2 cats. While I currently don't have any pets due to their passing, my experiences have given me a deep understanding of different breeds and their unique personalities. Whether your furry friend is small or large, I am confident in my ability to provide them with the care, attention, and playtime they need. I can rest assure you that your furry friends will be in good hands. I am dedicated to creating a safe and enjoyable environment for them, where they can thrive and feel loved. I currently work a 9-5 job Monday through Friday. When I am not working will be spending all of my time making sure your fur babies are being taken care of and shown much love! My pet-sitting services are solely offered in the client's home, drop-ins or walking. I will make sure to maintain a safe and happy environment for your pets. I am happy to follow through with your pet's daily routine and schedule. During my stay, I ensure your pet has fresh water and food, and plenty of exercise and playtime to keep them active and healthy. I will take the time to learn your pet's unique needs and behaviors, providing personalized care that promotes both their physical and emotional well-being.
