I have had dogs (and other pets) since I was a child. I love all animals and will treat each one as if it were my own. I currently have one senior dog of my own who occasionally has some special needs. I am experienced with special diets/feeding as well as giving medications (eye and ear drops, pills and subcutaneous injections - giving insulin twice a day to a diabetic dog). I have cared for smaller pets such as hamsters, gerbils, rabbits and guinea pigs and also cared for more exotic animals including snakes, lizards, arachnids and freshwater fish. I am available all weekends and most weeknights and may be available during the early morning with advanced notice. I prefer in-your-home sitting and am willing and able to care for plants, pick up mail and other light housekeeping tasks. Thanks, and I hope I can care for your pets in the future.
