I have a great love for all animals. From cuddling, to playing with them inside, or outside for exercise; pampering them and letting them control me. I love taking them to the beach or parks, and if allowed, let them run around, chasing a ball and having a great time. I have had many pets, from dogs and cats, to rodents, reptiles, fish, and birds. I feel they are a wonderful companion, and a great way to relax and release stress from a busy day. About this sitter: I love pets of all kinds, inside or out, large or small. I have had dogs, cats, birds, fish, snakes and mice as pets. I enjoy spending time with pets, both relaxing and taking walks, as well as going to the beach and parks. I feel pets are great companions and love spending time with them. I currently have a Golden Retriever, Jamie who is a certified Therapy dog. She has visited patients in assisted living facilities, nursing homes, hospice, private homes, libraries for children to read to her, colleges during finals to 'de-stress' both the students and the professors, pre-op patients at CHOC Children's Hospital. Jamie also passed the test and is now on a six month probation period where she will sit in the waiting room with abused children before they go on trial. They are working on allowing her to go in the courtroom. To protect Jamie and all my neighbors pets, I will require proof showing that s/he is up to date on their shots (rabbies vaccine, parva, Bordatello, DHLPP, and that they are crate trained. To make sure our pets are compatible I always do a 'meet and greet' at Tanager Park in Costa Mesa. Jamie has also done a Doritos commercial for the Superbowl titled 'Dog House Party'. Check it out!!!
