I have been a pet owner all my life...raised them from puppies to adults. Love to bond with these fur babies. Manage medications, baths, walking and some grooming if necessary. Will care for them like I do my own and provide a safe loving environment while they are in my care. When it comes to your children, rest assured they will be well taken care of while your away from home. Will also be willing to bring in the mail, water plants, remove trash or any other small jobs around the home. I also have no issues with cats and birds...reptiles are a whole other story. If you need references please feel free to send me a message. Looking forward to caring for your baby!
