Although I have never offered professional animal care services, I have taken care of pets my entire life, and while at school in Baltimore, I occasionally would (bi-weekly, depending on the owner's work schedule) look after a neighbor's dog. I was raised in a pet-friendly household, so I will treat your furry best friend like he/she is my own. I understand the value that your pet may hold, so while offering my services, I will not only handle your animal with love and care, I will further take the time to accommodate your pet to the best of my ability. That includes any present health issues that require attention, dietary concerns that you may express, or social standards that you instruct me to follow during moments of exercise and personal interaction with your animal. I also understand that you may request a hygienic obligation during your pet's stay with me, so do not hesitate to request one as friends and family have relied on me to properly bathe their pets before.
