I grew up in a home without pets. As a result, I spent most of my free time at friends' houses who have dogs. I am patiently waiting for the day I can own my own animals. In the meantime, I have helped my friends with theirs. My landlords have a border collie/black lab mix named Axel that I help care for during their vacations and while they are at work. My friends have a blue heeler/black lab mix named Tempest that I have also care for while they are away. I love their animals like they are my own. As a nurse, I work 12 hr shifts and my schedule is never the same. I could be working day shift or night shift depending on the week. While this may sound complicated, it means I could have a lot of days off in a row to care for your animals! Please let me know how I can accommodate you!
