Pet care experience

Hello my name is Cece I have been taking care of dogs and cat's for 40+ years..I have two cats and two dogs of my own all are healthy and happy, I spoil each one of them with love and affection I am a very easy going person very upbeat! I have lived in Mchenry Co/Crystal Lake all of my 54 years I am a very honest and a responsible person. Worked at banks for 23+ years and retail in town.. You have to get a background check just to work at a bank.. I can give you plenty of references from my prior banking jobs. Hope to hear you soon! I will take care of cats I have two of my own and I will walk your dog!! I will be there morning afternoon and evening just like my animals Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs in my life since I was 5 years old I am 54 now.. I had plenty of pooches from pit bulls, labs, min pin.. I have a good sense when their hurting or their tummy is sick. I even had a crippled dog too so love and care mean a lot to the dog and the owner! I think I am more sensitive to animals than humans for sure! My experience administering medication Yes I can!!!!! Please let me tell you my heart breaking story of my baby Milo. Milo was a beautiful gorgeous pit/lab that was so proud of himself and his magnificent physique one day his back gave out he could not get up to even go potty.. I took him to the vet ASAP she suggested to take him to a specialist clinic so we did. We both were beside ourselves waiting and wondering of the outcome I can hear my baby out of 10 or so dogs I knew his cry.. We met with a surgeon who thought we should get the spine surgery for him, so we did that day forward was the biggest change in our lives.. Milo would never walk again bought a wheel chair for him changed his diapers daily, kept him from any infections but yet Milo had enough and gave his all and so did I.. I could not let go until he let go!
