Pets

Compassionate for all animals

Pet care experience

I am very passionate for animals. As a child, my family bred two cocker spaniels, filling my home twice with two litters of 6 puppies, which we took care of until they were 8 weeks old. An experience that I continue to value, I've had experience raising dogs from birth until old age, in all walks of life, all necessary medication, and all shapes and sizes. I specialize in taking care of older dogs and their special needs. I also have experience taking care of cats, especially the older ones, and rabbits. Separate from my experience with animals, I'm studying technology, and love science fiction. I look forward to hearing from you and helping to care for your pets. Thank you! I'm currently in school at the moment, but it is online so my schedule is flexible. I'm very punctual and have always had a daily routine of caring for pets. The safety of your pets is very important to me, so I make sure to follow the owner's every instruction regarding their pet's care and comfort.
