Highlights
Pet care experience
Active, fun, full time student
I have had dogs and cats for all of my childhood and early adulthood, as well as experience housesitting and pet sitting for neighbors and family friends. My dog growing up was a 130 pound rottweiler which has definitely made me fit to care for bigger dogs, but also smaller dogs as many of my neighbors have very small dogs they have trusted me to care for as well as cats. I also had a cat for 13 years until she passed quit recently. Both pets were adopted as a puppy and kitten giving me experience with younger and senior pets as well as blind and deaf dog.
