About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I have my own dog who is almost 7 that I've been taking care of since he was three months old. I clip his nails, cut his hair, bathe him, take him on walks daily, feed him wet dry and raw food. He's a Maltese so I have to clean his face and eyes a lot. I brush his teeth and he's a very happy dog. Our family dog passed away in September 2023 and he had cancer so he needed a bit more special care when he got older and I would take care of him as well. He was a small shih-tzu and had a lot of issues so he always needed a little extra care. My aunts have a golden retriever that I dog sit a lot as well and I dog sat him when he was a baby so I can definitely take care of big dogs as well. I take care of my own dog and my two cats so pet care fits into my daily routine 24/7. I take care of all three of them and their separate routines. I clip all their nails, bathe them, feed them, they all sleep in my room, and I clean up after all three. I'm very familiar with pet care to say. I have a very big grass fenced in yard that my dog loves to run around. He's very sweet and calm and could get along with other dogs. I have two kitties that are actually very sweet and will be friends with other cats. And if not I have two homes they could stay in. I have crates if needed. I have everything needed for dogs including food, beds, treats, brushes, crates, blankets. And evrything for cats including beds, towers,scratching posts, food, treats, brushes and a very clean and uncluttered environment for your pet to stay in!
