My family has always had pets and I grew up taking care of them. I love all animals and in my pictures are some of the important pets I've had or taken care of :). My family had an Australian Shepherd and several cats and ever since I can remember I've scooped the litter box, fed the animals (whom I called my brothers and sisters), and walked our dogs. I rescued a Pomeranian from the streets 6 years ago and got him healthy and able to trust people again after suffering from abuse. His name is Leonard and he now lives with my mom who fell in love with him and couldn't give him up. Leonard taught me how to deal with animals who have trust issues and how to make them feel safe. Growing up, I have cared for kittens and puppies and continued to care for them as they became seniors. I have always been intuitive of animal's emotions and can tell when something is off with their health and when it is time to take them to the vet. I have also taken care of a stray cat who ended up having kittens and helped raise them until they were old enough to be adopted by friends and family. I got my own dog Richard 2 years ago who is the light of my life. He is the little white Pom in the photos. I trained and socialized him to be adaptable with cats, dogs of any size (he has a Cane Corso girlfriend), and to be happy in any environment. I groom my pup myself and give him baths and brush his teeth regularly. I would be honored to take care of your fur baby in whatever way is needed!
