17. Fatima L.
About: I have always been surrounded by animals big and small, been catering to their needs as a dog mom myself I always do what’s best for animals and make sure they are in a safe environment with me. I’m currently working part-time and in my spare time I always have my very own that attend too and I know how stressful it is whenever you can’t find anyone to help care for ur pet I have a fenced in backyard, with two of my dogs which are friendly with others so your fur baby will not be lonely . Do have the space if you’d like for me to crate ur dogs if needed in specific times if trying to crate train them . I walk my dogs an a daily about four times per day or if I’m taking care of a puppy more frequently then four as I know they can not hold for such a long time as older dogs
