My experience and love: Read below for my experience with cats, dogs, AND small animals/reptiles. Please read * note below! ----Dog experience-------- I have done a lot of Dog boarding, day care and walking for family and clients with small to large sized dogs. As well as house sitting and making sure they get their exercise and potty breaks. I do neighborhood walks or walks in the park. If you board with me we have a dog park that I would play with them in. Walks would be in my neighborhood or at the nearby park that has multiple dog play areas. I have dogs of my own and loooove giving them an excessive amount of love and attention. So petmart is going to definitely be a visit we take to get some treats -------Cat experience------- I always root for the "underdog"...10+ years later that has not changed -except in this case its my unyielding love for felines. They are massively misunderstood and many people don’t have the patience to "learn" their language, and behaviors. I grew up with cats since I was 8yrs old and raised a handful from unweaned kittens to full adults. When I turned 18 and lived overseas -that's when I adopted a street kitten that was really injured and nursed it back to health from then on its been a passion of mine to nurture, train, and help kitties flourish. I understand their need for affection, safety, and attention. I personally have 4 cats myself (as well as a bunny lol): half of them are special needs. I've dealt with special FIV and CH also known as "wobble syndrome", to cats with intense anxiety etc -----Small Animal Experience----- I have had the privilege of learning the depth and complexity and beauty of taking care and owning a rabbits, guinea pigs, and gerbils. Having done extensive research, proper handling, and grooming and maintenance, Rabbits have become a favorite of mine to engage. They are intelligent and in need of space and intentionality as much as a cat or dog. I've also cared for guinea pigs as well I would love to give you peace of mind with my personal intentionality, care and excellence while you are away! **please note I live with my best friend who is also on Rover and equally vetted. We take care of the furbabies together when we can
