About: What makes me different is my personalized, compassionate approach to every pet I care for. I treat each animal like they’re my own—paying close attention to their needs, routines, and personalities. I currently work full-time but I would love to have another job on the weekends. I have a lot of time on weekends to spare and would love to help families with their animal. I have taken care of my finance families dog whenever they need me. I enjoy walking my animals around. I treat all animals like they are my own.
