About: Since I was one month old, I’ve been around animals. I treat them with respect, love, boundaries and instinct. They’re family, and should be treated as such :) I run my own business and make my own schedule, so animal care will be around your schedule. I would ensure your pet’s routines are accommodated. My house and yard are over 3 acres. if there’s a way in which we can care for your pet here, we will and will be quite happy

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and I have taught myself how to groom them. I love cats especially. I can groom and bathe them as well as ear cleaning and nail trims. I do online school, and I am able to have an extremely free schedule! I am able to drop in or stay for as many hours you need. My schedule is extremely flexible, whatever works for you and your pet will also work for me :3 I have 3 cats and we have a nice backyard. I live near a few forest trails and would love to walk your doggo in one of them! For at my home care I can only allow dogs that are okay with cats as I cannot allow a threat to my own girls.
