I am a mature non smoker. I love all sized critters. I'm happy to walk, brush & care for your furry one while you are gone. I've been caring for animals since I was very young & seem to have a special connection to them. I do have experience providing care for all types of animals while their families are away (from lizards to horses). When I lived in PA, I provided animal care for many families, in their own homes. I currently live on a farm & help with many of the animals here (horses, goats, sheep, ducks, chickens & cats). I am very "in tune" with each animals needs. I look forward to the opportunity to help you & your family. Thank you.
