Hello pet parents! I am a big animal lover with experience caring for all kinds of furry, feathered, and scaled companions. I grew up with many different animals including cats, dogs, bunnies, ferrets, hamsters, a squirrel, fish, birds, lizards, and snakes! I volunteered at a shelter for awhile walking dogs and working with those requiring more patience and individual care (ones that had been neglected or mistreated or showing certain nervous/aggressive behaviors) as well as some basic training. At one point I even helped someone start a non-profit animal rescue and then an in-home doggy daycare business. I have experience with blind animals, deaf animals, animals missing legs, and those requiring medication and special dietary needs as well. I've been dog walking and pet sitting for years and have experience doing overnights with cats, dogs, lizards, rats, and even chickens! I absolutely love spending time around animals and treat them all like my own with all the love and care they deserve.
