Pet care experience

I have had animals for my entire life and have been pet sitting for the past 8 years. I also worked for an animal rescue where I cared for dogs of all sizes with all different types of needs. I can feed, walk, bathe, brush, give meds, and most anything else! I have so much love for animals and hope you choose me to share it with yours!

Katie was very accommodating in regards to setting up a time to meet & greet in order to learn Fenway's routines before I left town. While away Katie sent me updates on Fenway in which was very much appreciated. Upon returning home it was like I hadn’t even left, Fenway was well cared for and happy. I would definitely recommend Katie. Thank you so much!!
