Pet care experience

I’ve grown up raising all types of animals including but not limited to cats, dogs, ducks, turtles, and hermit crabs. My experience includes volunteering at the Human Society in high school, and a current volunteer for One Tail At A Time. I am often the friend chosen to watch over my friend’s cats and dogs when they are out of town. Nothing makes me happier than visiting my fur-nephews and nieces who get time with the auntie who has the good gossip. I’m experienced in walks, good ol playtime, feedings and taking amazing pet photos to send to their owners. I understand the love and care that goes into having not only a pet but a member of your family. As a lifelong animal lover I approach animals with the respect and kindness they deserve. Your pet may see me as that lady with cute aggression in her voice, googly eyes, and keeper of pats and pets. They’ll be happy to know that I would love to play with them (if they want to haha) or if not we can hangout in peace. I’m cool with that too. My overall priority will be making sure your pet is happy, cared for and safe, just like a long lost friend. *I put my years of experience is as paid experience*

Toya is a great friend, that has frequently cat sat for me over the years. One of my cats needed medicine to be administered orally and she was able to care for him. She treats all the cats with love and does a great job of playing with my energetic cats. They seem to like her lot because whenever she comes to visit me my they get excited to see her and run to greet her at the door. While she cares for my cats, she gives frequent updates with pictures which I appreciate, letting me know if they are eating properly and if there are any mood shifts. I would gladly trust Toya to care for my cats anytime, in fact, she’s watching them now currently while i’m on vacation.
