About: My name is Grace, and I’ve always had a love for animals. I’ve been surrounded by pets since I was a child—everything from dogs, cats rabbits, horses and farm animals ( some rescues), I don't really have a preference. While I’ve always had animals in my life, I’m currently unable to commit to owning one full time due to work-related travel. That’s what makes pet sitting such a enjoyable opportunity for me. I am reliable and caring and have a good understanding of how different personalities have different needs- whether they are full of energy and love to play or rather someone calm to keep them company. I understand how important it is for pets to get attention and feel as comfortable as possible while they're person is away. I work Monday to Friday but my schedule is relatively flexible and my mornings and evenings are open. I would love the excuse to get out and about before and after work. I have no pets of my own currently as they stayed in my home house. I can accommodate any walks, check-ins or cuddles as needed
