19. Taylor L.
About: I've helped care for family pets in the past, am an attentive cat mama of my own 2 year old cat, and have also previously provided animal care as a personal assistant in Metro Detroit. I've had practice and done a lot of researching to make sure I am a knowledgeable and resourceful caretaker. I work hybrid! When working from home, I can keep my eye on them. And I prepare very well when I know I'm going to be away for a few hours. I understand wanting to make sure animals are tended to, so even if I do have to step out, I time it and try to make sure I'm not gone too long. We will be indoors! If you want your cat to get fresh air outside (aside from being at an open screened window), I have a backpack with a window bubble on it specifically made for small animals, it also opens out into a small structure that'll let them play and stretch their legs a lot more while still not able to roam without supervision! I also have a little tote bag for an animal where they can poke their cute head out. I keep an eye on what they're interacting with to make sure it's nothing that'll harm them as well.
20. Mallory B.
About: I am a patient individual and I pay attention to the little details. I've lived with cats all my life and love to spend time with animals! I work full time M-F 8am-4:30pm so I am free on weekends and evenings! I can do overnight pet care and leave in the morning for work around 7am. I play with the cats at my house, check on their litter, and spend time petting and loving on the animals so they feel attended to.
