I've had pets in my home since I was born; from hamsters to horses. I have grown up loving animals just like my mother. We've had a total of 15 pets over the past 20 years and it still doesn't feel like its enough. I love our furry friends whether that be dogs or cats. I've been pet sitting for friends and family since I was 13 and am looking forward to my second summer with rover. I am a college student home for the summer looking for a job to start financially supporting myself as a young adult. I thought "what better way than to care of other's furry friends and enjoy my work?" I leave for college late august, but until then, I am more than happy to care for any of your precious pets. Whenever I pet sit, I always make sure to speak with the owner and have all of the information I need. I do the work I need to do first then spend time with the pet if they're feeling social. I send updates including pictures and inventory of food or supplies.
