Information Gem D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any particular behaviors or needs that I should be aware of, just anything that you might consider important I know.

A typical day

I love caring for animals

Pet care experience

I've always been good with animals, I'm great at understanding their body language and respecting their boundaries. I have good control of my tone of voice when speaking to animals and they respond to it well. I've taken care of dogs and cats myself. I've even kept a bunny company. I have a lot of patience, and I genuinely care about the wellbeing of every living being I come across so I take their care very seriously.

Gem was a great pet sitter! They took great care of my cat for the 3 weeks that I needed. They were very communicative of anything happening that seemed out of the ordinary. I felt very comfortable having them take care of my cat and I would go with them again if needed.

Nene have looked after my cat, Lilo multiple times. They are very reliable , communicative and also very loving to my kitty . Lilo can be a handful sometimes, as he meows a lot to go out during the day and tries to run whenever the door is open . I am very grateful towards Nene for they have been immensely mindful, patient and kind towards Lilo!

She actually enjoys spending time with animals and they like her too. She is very good at reading their body language and understanding what they want, if they're asking to go outside or if they want to play. She took care of my babies for years since the moment they were puppies and I never doubted their safety when they were in her care.
