Pet care experience

Patient, animal loving girl!

I have been the "go-to" petsitter for family and friends for almost 15 years. Growing up we have always had animals, so it became natural to me to take care of pets. I love being outdoors and walking my dog, Elvis. I enjoy our adventures and seeing the joy in my neighbors face when we go out and about. I'm comfortable with giving medications if need be. I'm a rescue mom from Berkeley, CA and am very familiar with most breeds. I'm patient and kind to all animals because, quite frankly, I don't believe humans deserve dogs and cats. They're way to good for us. HA! I have open availability and can stay at your home if it makes you comfortable or your "best friend" can stay with us. We have a HUGE backyard and live in a very safe neighborhood north of Baltimore; not to mention ALL OF THE TOYS!!

I was able to do a meet and greet with Iris and she was very communicative and friendly. She clearly loves animals and I had no issues or concerns with leaving my puppy with her. My puppy was well taken care of and I would use Iris again if needing a sitter for my puppy.

Iris watched our fur baby Woody for 2 weeks. We received daily updates with photos and could clearly tell she took great care of him as if he was her own pup. Thank you Iris!
