My pet care experience began when I found a dog at a shelter on my thirteenth birthday, and raised and loved him for another 13 years. He was a corgi mix, happy and loved. I like to spread that love around. I have taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family, and would like to do so for others. I am prepared to take care of pets for a few hours, go for walks, take them for potty breaks, over night or long term. I love their excitement; from when they go for walks, to when we play, to when their parents come home. I understand their need for comfort, reassurance, exercise, food, a schedule, and some fun, and am prepared to help in making sure those needs are met -- for both them and their loved ones.
