Pet care experience

Hello Pet Parent 👋🏻 Located in East Elmhurst 🛩 2 mins away from LaGuardia Airport. I am a part time online college student and full time animal lover. I have a undeniable love and more importantly patience for pets. They might get away with a little more when their with me. I can’t resist the cuteness and company. I’ve fostered dogs and dog sitted for about 5 years now. And I am a dog owner of my own. He is an old man now, so you can say I’ve had a lot of experience. Considering he was a huge trouble maker. Patience is key. Caring for an animal comes with a special connection that I love. Hopefully you’ll put the same trust in me with your pets that I put in pets when I’m around them. I would love to get to know your pet in a personal level. And become best buds. * I am a Spanish speaker as a well so feel free to reach out in either language *🇨🇴 ‼️please be advised that all pets must have a flea and tick treatment, during spring/summer‼️ ⚠️Please note that I do accept intact or males who are not neutered, but they do tend to mark their territory even if they are potty trained. Please Provide diapers ⚠️ Pick up and drop off is available 🚘
