Let me just start by telling you that I absolutely ADORE animals! Big, small, furry, feathered, winged, scaled, or other, I've cared for them all! I've been pet and house sitting since 2018 and have had the privilege of taking care of a variety of animals, including but not limited to: dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, snakes, sugar gliders, & a Savannah Monitor. While you're away, your pet will love being spoiled and cared for like they're one of the family! They can snuggle up on the couch or bed with me, if you allow that. We will play in the house or outside (your/their preference,) go for rides while I run errands (if they like that sort of thing,) go to the park, etc. Pretty much anything they like to do with you, they can do with me. :) I have a partner who helps with the big stuff (farming, livestock, heavy lifting, etc) & 2 dogs of my own who come with me on my sittings. They dogs are 7 and 12 years old and I've had them since they were pups. They are friendly, well-mannered, & get along with everyone, including other animals & children. They mostly sleep and keep to themselves these days, especially the older one. In an ideal world, I'd have a house full of animals, but since that's not an option for now, I thought this would be a good win-win for us both! My availability varies, yet is extremely flexible, as I am a self employed Esthetician/Massage Therapist and see clients by appointment only, so I can work my schedule around yours and your pets.
