I'm an avid animal lover looking to pick up some pet sitting gigs. I have a 1-year-old cat myself and I've been dog sitting for about 4 years now. I have dog sat for mostly family but through word of mouth I've gained other jobs through their acquaintances. Generally I have stayed in my clients homes and watched over their house (bring in mail, water plants, etc) as well as their pets. I have experience with puppies and kittens as well as geriatric animals. I work a 9-5 full time job so I will be scheduling around that. Since I stay at my clients homes, I let the dogs out in the morning and then after work I come back and stay the rest of the night. Weekends I will plan to be there all day with the exception of a brief errand from time to time. I have also briefly volunteered at the Ferndale Catfe last year.
