I've owned cats for 5 years and cat- and dog-sat for friends and family whenever possible. I am reliable and detail-oriented to ensure I understand how to care for your pets' individual needs. With your pet I will be patient and gentle, but also ready to help your pets run out their energy if that's what's needed. I can clip cats' claws, clean their ears, or brush their teeth. I haven't trained pets formally but will work to reinforce any training you're working on - fun fact, I've been able to train my 2 cats to high five! I am vaccinated and boosted against covid-19 and happy to mask also as needed. I am available on weekends, and I work remotely during the workweek, so I have a lot of flexibility depending on how far away we are from each other. I am eager to understand and meet the needs of you and your pet, whether that means reinforcing training you are working on, assisting with pets' special needs, or other.
