Years of knowledge all animal types

Pet care experience

I am passionate about animals and their well being and have worked in the animal field both as a care provider and as a protection officer. I've handled/cared for exotic animals such as toucans, parrots, raccoons, monkeys, lemurs, and alligators. I also have several years of experience working in animal shelters, as law enforcement and care provider. I like to make sure that the animal is happy, and comfortable. My previous experience included feeding and changing water, keeping the living area clean, and making sure the animal had plenty of exercise/social time. I am able to provide medical care when needed such as medicines (oral/topical), IVs, and so on. I do not have any pet sitting experience per say aside from occasionally watching friends/family pets. However, I hope that my experience working with animals; providing care, maintaining living conditions, animal socialization, etc. is enough to show that the animal well being is most important to me.

Information Ben K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how the client treats his/her pet. Is the pet spoiled, does it have the run of the house or does it run the house? In certain instances how rough does the dog like to play? In case of emergency the vet contact information and if the animal is micro-chipped?

A typical day

Spending quality time with the pet(s) is most important. I would walk around the neighborhood taking different routes to change up the animals scenery and smells. Around local ponds/lakes and open spaces. Fetch with toys or sticks.
