I work from home and set my own hours, so I have a flexible schedule. I'm a proud 'mother' to my 14-year-old Chihuahua, whom I've cared for since she was a puppy... and she's still going strong (relatively) in her golden years. I have had pets throughout my life, including several dog breeds (Dalmatian and Keeshond), as well as taken care of pets belonging to family and friends. Pooches in my care will go for walks and play fetch. They'll also gets lots of petting and belly rubs. If acceptable, my fourth grader (self-declared future veterinarian) would also help with sitting, playing and walking (if not, that is perfectly fine too). If you have multiple pets, I'd also be happy to sit for them. I'm very fond of felines and would welcome other pets, including rabbits, ferrets, fish, birds. On a side note, I was also a volunteer for a forgotten pet nonprofit.
