As a kid with only goldfish, lizards, and the occasional hermit crab as pets, I spent many years dog and cat sitting as a way to not only make money but get some quality time in with pets that love back! I've ridden horses for 20+ years and have a significant amount of experience handling and taking care of horses, which translates naturally over to smaller animals. I also frequently take care of my housemates' ragdoll "Elmer" (shown in my photos), so I'm well-versed in cat care. I will worry just as much as you do about the health and well-being of your best fur friends, because I am also a horse owner who happens to have an accident-prone equine. (Consequently, my first aid and medicating skills are top notch!) I truly love cats and dogs and can't wait for the day I can have my own, so I'm hoping you'll let me love on yours in the meantime.
