Pet Care on Bainbridge 🩷

Pet care experience

I have a lifelong passion for animals, which began in childhood and has shaped my career and volunteer experiences. Over the years, I have cared for a diverse range of pets, including dogs, cats, small animals like gerbils, and farm animals such as horses, donkeys, and pigs. My extensive experience includes over five years at a local rescue farm on Bainbridge, as well as roles at wildlife and pet rescue shelters like West Sound Wildlife and Miranda’s Rescue. I had my own dog for 15 years and currently have two cats. Professionally, I have been pet sitting since 2018 and joined Rover in 2023, bringing a wealth of knowledge and compassion to my pet care services.
