- Having grown up in a household full of pets, I have always cared for animals. My parents entrusted me with red-eared slider turtles, crayfish, fish, birds, and eventually, two cats and two German Shepherds. I have worked as a pet sitter for neighbors, family, friends, and on Rover, and I have volunteered for a non-profit walking rescue dogs. As someone with a soft spot for senior animals, I adopted two senior dogs and loved caring for them during our time together. - I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and abilities. I have experience helping dogs eat if they're not feeling well and not interested in food. As my previous senior dog got older and developed glaucoma, I gained experience administering eye drops multiple times a day for months and helping him navigate the world after he eventually lost his vision. Since he was mostly deaf, I learned how to give commands to him as a blind and deaf dog. I also have experience administering medicine and subcutaneous fluids, and working with dogs with separation anxiety. - For dogs and cats who need a calming presence, we can chill together. However, I also like staying active and enjoy playing with dogs and cats when they're feeling playful or have the zoomies. - My place is a five-minute walk away from a park and the beach, where I would be happy to take your dog(s) for a walk. No animals live with me if your pet(s) prefer no competition for affection and attention. - I'll provide the pet sitting, dog walking, feeding, and care your pets need, with the love and attention they deserve, if you don't mind sharing your pet's company with me.
