About: I have my own mini dachshund who I care for full time! I love her more than anything! i’ve have had both a cat and dog my whole life as well as caring for others dogs and cats throughout the past few years. I would love to help you out with your furry friends☺️ I help my family by walking, feeding and playing with my dog and feeding, emptying the kitty-litter and playing with our cat and have been helping as long as I can remember I’m willing to spend the night or just a few trips throughout the day to help clients out with pet care anytime throughout the week!
About: I have over 5 years experience on Rover and Wag, I’ve pet sat for over 15 years, I foster dogs when I’m not pet sitting, and I work from home so I can provide around the clock care! I work remotely, so when I’m pet sitting I can provide care around the clock. The pets I take care of are never alone for more than one hour. I treat all pets in my care like family. They are allowed on furniture and in beds, get plenty of time outside, and lots of cuddles.
