I'm an excellent choice to take care of your precious pets! Not just because I'll provide your pets with the most attentive and loving care possible, but because of my very flexible schedule. I have no outside commitments. That means I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Overnight house-sitting works well for me. I stay at my houses all day and night, except for the occasional errand and when I drop in on my cat. I'm an extreme home body, so your pets will be happy to have a trusted companion all day. You and your pets will be in good hands with me. I've cared for dogs and cats since childhood. That makes over FOUR decades of personal experience caring for all of the dogs and cats in my life! I grew up on a small family farm and have experience taking care of horses, sheep, pigs, geese, chickens, and fresh and saltwater fish. I have years of professional experience in pet sitting. Past pet owners have expressed that they were very happy with my services. I've taken care of a variety of dog breeds, from tiny Yorkies to Bull Mastiffs and Great Danes. I'm comfortable with all dog breeds, and love to do research on the various dog and cat breeds that I'm caring for. I feel confident in my knowledge of your pets' needs, including appropriate interaction with them, proper feeding, exercising, using vets, training reinforcement, and oral medication administration. I'm experienced in the care of puppies, senior dogs, and special needs dogs. I've also trained puppies. I have a caring, positive and calm approach with animals. Many past pet owners have said that their pets respond to me in a positive way. Dogs are a very important part of my life; caring for them keeps me happy!
