My special skills, besides having a very soothing personality that animals respond too, Is that I was a Doctor for many years. I have a wide range of practical skills, and years of experience being incredibly patient, loving, and kind with animals of all kinds (mostly humans, but it rolls over ;) ) My own "zoo" consists of 2 dogs, and four cats. Our larger dog, Julie an English bulldog, was a rescue. She is very protective, and food aggressive. But we love her very much, and have had her for quite a few years! She loves our little pug, Olie. I am very good with kitties and dogs of all sizes. We have two rescue kitties as well. Currently, I am available pretty much whenever I like, or whenever you need. I have a very flexible schedule and I always have my phone on me. I would love to watch elderly animals also.
