Pet care experience

books open for the holidays :)

I've never not been surrounded by pets. My mom raised me to love animals and taught me everything about how to care for them. As a child I would always insist on holding the dogs' leashes and I would follow the cats around the house trying to learn their mysterious body language. That's not to mention the countless fish, hamsters, hermit crabs, birds, tree frogs and Tiny the (very large) Iguana. Now I live in a 3-cat-1-dog household. Mara is my cat (in my pfp and banner). She's the love of my life and we are totally inseparable. I rescued her from a parking lot when she was only 4 months old and the plan was to pass her off once we got rid of her fleas, fixed her, and gave her all her shots, but she chose me as her mom and I couldn't give her away. Being her parent has been one of the most important and rewarding experiences of my life. When it comes to your animals I will approach them with the utmost respect. I believe animals always tell us how they want to be treated. I've learned a lot about the body language of cats and dogs and so my approach is highly individualized whenever I meet a new animal. I am skilled in administering medication, tending injuries, and seeing to dietary needs. No matter how long the list is, no matter the life stage, your pets will get everything they need when they are under my care.

Safety, trust & environment

I take the responsibility of looking after animals very seriously, but they won't know that because they'll just be having the best time when we're together. At the end of the day, our obligation as pet parents is to make sure and give them the most fulfilling, happiest lives we can. I would consider it a great privilege to share in that experience with you and your pets.

If your animal has and special needs, I would love to learn more about that. I want to be an animal care expert so I will never shy away from an animal who needs individualized care. This includes injections !
