Experienced pet sitter/foster parent and current owner of 2 fur babies of my own (1 cat & 1 dog & best friends). I've grown up with animals my entire life and foster with PAWS--having taken care of both healthy and sick animals, of all ages. I have a 3 1/2-year-old terrier mix named Gatsby, as well as a purr baby named Bambi, who is great with most dogs and a master at hiding from those he doesn't like. Both are rescues and "failed fosters". I work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule. My home is very pet-friendly and dogs are allowed on furniture and in the bed. Looking forward to giving your loved one a happy place to stay while you are away!
