As a dedicated, organized and reliable professional with more than 3 years experience supervising the care of pets while their owners are away—complemented by my love of animals and my excellent experience in a volunteer capacity with regional animal shelters. The ability to work with animals and understand their body language, empathy, and patience I am prepared to ease your worries and give you peace of mind with regard to the wellbeing of your pets during your absence. My background includes performing comprehensive tasks to ensure full animal care, including providing food and water, grooming pets, walking dogs, cleaning up animal waste, administering medicine, and providing general companionship. In addition, I am experienced in providing house sitting duties, such as collecting mail, watering plants, handling trash, and turning on and off lights and security systems as needed.
