We love them! They love us back!

Pet care experience

At a young age i was brought to America from russia ; I instantly fell in love with my family pet Toby. She was a black lab mixed with Australian shepherd. I didn't speak english very well but Toby made me feel I was understood and this is where I found my love for animals. Few years later our next door neighbor gave us a cat and she was pregnant. 6 kittens later and out of 6 I managed to convince my parents to keep 4. A year later I found another cat in out country yard and kept her as well. Having 1 dog and 5 cats was a big task but I loved it. I currently have a very needy loving bulldog named merlin who loves all the attention from his mama. Merlins enjoy of life are sitting on his mama's lap and wanting to play as soon as he's had his maybe 3 nap in by 12pm after the well deserved nap merlin is all ready to use his energy on running, jumping, and giving kisses. My cat Ripley was going to be put down since she was at the pet shop for over a year. She wasn't wanted because she wasn't friendly towards everyone. She was as described as she was selective of who she'd come down her shelf for. My family visited her frequently and eventually I decided to adopte her. I offer to watch my apt neighbors dogs and any friends that ask me to watch their animals. I would love to get to meet your pet/s and give them attention when your away untill your return back. I take care of merlin ( English bulldog), Ripley (maine coon), 2 Russian tortoises( 8 yrs I've had them, probably will be passed down to my future husbands kids) , a hamster( had him for 3 yrs now ). I love sharing my attention to all the animals that I have and meet. I look forward to providing the best care for your pet/s while you are busy making money for the Biscuits or take a well deserved break from the every day to day. I currently can not pet sit at my apartment for a long period of time. I have occasionally watched a dog for a weekend but with prior meet/ greet and making sure my dog gets along with your pet/s. Im more then happy to watch your pet/s at your home. I'm comfortable walking your pet/s,feeding, treats, and play time indoors or outdoor. I don't prefer to give medication. If given directions and your pet/s has been on it and no emergency symptoms I can on request give medication. I do have a experience giving baths to kittens to dogs with some guidance of what your preferences are going about it im more then happy to do this service. I'm very flexible with my hours for the most part and with communication I'm glad to help out any way ; while your away from your pet/s.

A typical day

I took merlin to the dog park for 4 months straight to socialize him to other dogs and people. I still take him when it's not to hot out for him. I have a friend who has a dog and cat which both of them like going on walks. I go on walks in watertown and nashotah dog park.
