I’ve grown up around animals and have always had cats in the house, along with a sweet family dog. From a young age, I learned how to care for pets with love and patience, whether that meant cleaning litter boxes, going on daily walks, or giving lots of snuggles and attention. That early experience made me confident and comfortable handling pets with all kinds of personalities. Throughout high school and college I regularly walked, fed, and stayed overnight with neighbors’ pets including long stays with dogs and puppies. One of my longest pet sitting jobs was over two weeks, caring for two dogs (including a high-energy puppy) and making sure they got outside for walks multiple times a day. At home now, I have a playful cat named Ash who loves birdwatching and nap time, and we’re currently fostering an adorable kitten named Winnie. He’s full of curiosity and affection and has been adjusting well to life with Ash. It’s been so fun watching their personalities develop and helping them bond. I’ve also looked after pets with different energy levels and needs, like energetic dogs and shy cats, making sure each one feels comfortable and cared for. I treat every animal like they’re my own, with plenty of attention, affection, and respect for their routines.
