I have a calm demeanor, and do especially well with shy, anxious, and senior pets. Gaining their trust is a task I do not take lightly, and I always love to put in the effort. (And, not to brag, but even the grumpiest pets become my pals, without fail!) I treat all animals with reverence and respect, and all pets as if they were my own. I enjoy spending my free time reading, writing, and listening to music, and am always happy to spend those activities with a cat on my lap, or a dog dozing beside me. I am also a fan of long walks, and spending time in nature—especially with a dog (or two!) by my side. I am also more than willing to take care of any rodents, reptiles, insects, and even plants! I admittedly have a huge soft spot for unconventional pets: snakes, rats, scorpions... you name it! If it swims, walks, slithers, climbs, or is just plain stationary, I promise I will love it regardless. (But, I must admit I am a total cat person above all else!) Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, and please do not hesitate to message me with any questions, at any time! I, like many others, am more than a little attached to my phone, so rest-assured that my responses will come quickly.
