About Me... I am a 20 year old student who lives on Long Beach Island but I spent a lot of my time in Manahawkin and the surrounding area. My parents have taught me to respect animals. I grew up being an animal and nature lover so I am extremely comfortable around all animals of all shapes and sizes. I love all animals and adore taking care of them! From big to small, to lazy or fun and playful. Ever since I was young I have loved taking care of animals and enjoy spending time with them, training them, and walking them. I see Rover as an excellent opportunity to not only spend time with animals but also to help out pet owners take care of their cats and dogs whenever I can! Seeing a furry friend makes my day so much better and adding a little bit of time with a mans best friend into each day could benefit me so much. I know how much animal owners love their pets as I own three dogs and a cat and I can guarantee your animal will be treated with love and care with them in my care. I am very responsible and trustworthy in all aspects especially with animals. I would be honored to walk, care for, and spoil any pet and I can ensure that they will be happy! One day I hope to open my own rescue service for all animals and want to provide a place that all animals can come and get the love they deserve. I hope you consider me to spoil your animals with kindness, fun, and love! My Pets... I have had çats and dogs throughout my entire childhood and have learned how to nurture and care for them. Currently, I have three dogs and one cat in my house and I treat them all like they are my children. I have one rat terrier named Nate who is 12 years old, a 11 year old beagle named Ray, a 9 year old gordon setter named Cyrus, and a 5 year old bombay cat named Otis. All of my animals have been treated with kindness since we got them, (Nate is a rescue so I can’t speak for the life he had before we got him). Everyday I wake up, feed and walk my dogs and give them all a lot of love of course. I believe animals should be treated with just as much love, respect, and kindness as a real child. Availability... I am currently going to school online so I do have scheduled classes but I am able to be on the go while in class! I update my Rover availability every chance I get. These hours are flexible so don’t be afraid to reach out! Mon-Fri: varies, reach out! Sat-Sun: 2 p.m.-7 p.m. Puppy Perks... I will gladly take your dogs on hikes, trips, and dog parks if requested! I go on a lot of road trips in the area and love to go on walks and enjoy nature and would love to bring you dog along with me! I can also provide light grooming and baths since I know how messy some dogs like to get. I see this opportunity as a chance to gain experience while having fun! Animal Additions... Let me know if your cat or dog has any special needs or services I can provide. I can provide oral medications and have experience with young puppies and senior dogs as well. I want to ensure you and your pet have the best care possible so let me know if there are any additional accommodations I can provide for your pet! ------------------------------------------------------
