Ever since moving back to South Tampa I’ve met some wonderful people and their pets. I immediately hit it off with my neighbor’s westie Scooter. So she would trust me to take care of little Scooter while she was away on work trips. Then I gained the trust of other neighbors that asked me to care for their pets as well when they had to be gone. I did the same for my significant other when she had to be gone. They all have appreciated that I update them constantly with text and photos unprompted to keep their mind at ease. I have taken care of dogs, cats, a bearded dragon, and one parrot. Even though I’ve always been compensated in some form or fashion, it’s always been such a joy to help take care of these precious animals.
