About: My entire life I spent around dogs of various breeds and sizes, who I still dog sit on a regular basis. I have 4 cats and a dog of my own, as well as having had rescue turtles, bearded dragons, and an iguana. I have dog sat for other people for a good portion of my life. I work full time 10am - 6pm but am openly available on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I am available for overnight stays if it is necessary I’m pretty good with animals in general, never met a cat that disliked me and VERY rarely have I come across a dog that acted aggressively towards me. I have a lot of various experience in administering medication or providing care for a wide array of animals.
