My passion is caring for animals. I spent 3 years fostering and coordinating foster homes for animals as well as volunteered a great deal of time at an animal rescue near where I used to live in California. I am skilled in administering medications, making sure to follow routines and feeding schedules, and I am very active so making sure your dog is taken for a walk/run multiple times a day will be no problem at all. In fact, it will be a blast! I work part time and primarily do independently contracted/freelance work, so my schedule is very flexible. I strive to make sure I am available and move things around in my schedule to ensure that the best quality care is given. I myself have an 13yr old border collie mix who is the love of my life. I can do overnights and house sitting but I cannot currently board animals as we are at capacity. I pride myself on being an honest person who has a big heart for animals, I can be a little shy as far as first meets go, but I promise you will not be disappointed with the quality of care your furry companion receives during your time away from home. I know how stressful it can feel to leave them behind, but let me assure you, I will provide as many photo updates as you would like and always answer if you should have any questions, concerns, or just want to tell your dog or cat that you will be home soon.
