Love taking care of animals.

Pet care experience

Spoiling animals and caring for them gives me great satisfaction. Animals are innocent and depend on people to provide for them. I love to help people that have pets. So I would give their pets attention, love and meet their needs. Every animal is unique and has a special bond with their human. I would understand the exact care and requirements each owner wants for their pet. All my life, I have been surrounded by dogs and cats. Animals instinctively like and respond to me. I enjoy playing and having fun as well as massages and loving on animals. My dog Josephine, a chihuahua, was a stray living in some woods behind a shopping center. Nobody could catch her and she was in bad shape. I used a cat trap and caught her. Vet said she wouldnt have lasted much longer. Severely dehydrated, emaciated and several infected tick bites. I got her healthy and spoil her every day. I love my Josephine more than anything. I will treat your special pet just as I treat my Josephine

Kirk is wonderful! He was constant with communication which we appreciated. He cared so well for our dog while we were away visiting family. Our cutie is a bit anxious and he knew exactly what to do! He loves dogs, knows a ton, and just really cared for our Shae so well. Highly recommend.
