I specialize in animals that want to be snuggled and have people companionship. I was born into a 2-dog household and have always been a dog person, but my wife and I adopted 2 kittens from a local shelter last year and are now hopeless cat lovers as well. I've done in-house sitting for: 3 high-energy Italian Greyhounds; 2 black Labs, one of whom was older and needed several oral medications; a mother-daughter pair of Shelties; and several multi-cat households. I also grew up with, and said goodbye to, 5 dogs by the time I graduated college. Most of then were Golden Retrievers, a breed which now occupies one of the sweetest places in my heart. I love pets and look forward to giving yours the love and attention they need while you're away!
