Pet care experience

I have had and have taking care of all types of animals since I was a child. I grew up near farms and woods so I would take care of not only our domestic animals - cats and dogs primarily - I also helped take care of the cows, pigs, and chickens.

Bennie was a pleasure to work with and was dedicated to caring for our cat and keeping us updated on our furry family member. Bennie, left our place in great shape and our kitty, though upset with me for leaving, seemed well cared for.

I just adopted a sweet baby kitty named Nicki. She’s my pride and joy. I love all types of animals and I love to go on walks and play with them as well. I am originally from CT, but I moved up here to boston four years ago now for college. I am a double major at Massachusetts College of Art and design. I have one roommate currently who also loves animals. He’s very safe and trust worthy. He watches my little baby kitty sometimes if I am out of town.

Availability

I am a full time student and I also have a part time job. I live a five minute walk away from my work place and campus as well. So while I do go to school and work, I can stop home in between Classes or shifts. That also means I get home right away after school and/or work.
