Pet care experience

I've had a love for animals, of all kinds, since I can remember. Growing up with dogs of my own, they were some of my childhood best friends. I always jumped at the chance to care for animals for friends and family in my neighborhood. I love the opportunities I get working around the Irvine/Orange County area with the pets in my community!

Marketta has been wonderful! We have had her come over twice and we will definitely use her the next time we go out of town. Our dog Gracie loves her and was so happy to have her here while we were gone. when we got back she was a very happy and a well taken care of doggie.
