Pet care experience

i’ll love your pets as much as mine

My mom has worked as an assistant at a Vet Clinic for my whole life and I was always up there with her. I’ve done lots of volunteer work for them and I have wonderful experience with all kinds of animals. I have 2 pets of my own. My dog, kenai, and my cat, faline. I tend to my animals every need and make sure they are happy and healthy. I am very responsible, caring and I am willing to prove that to you and your pets.

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately, I will not allow other pets to come to my home for safety precautions. I prefer to house sit your animals in a place where they are most comfortable. Leave me a list of all the specifics and I will make it my top priority to see to their needs.

Anything you recommend, I will be more than happy to do! If your pet is able to be in public, then I don’t mind taking them for walks, the dog park, etc. You will always be informed before I take your pet anywhere.
