My experience with pets includes all types of critters ranging from two legged feathered ones, four legged scaly ones, to four legged furry ones. I'm the proud mommy of a very catty cat, and two sweet bunnies. My pets are part of my family, and that is exactly how I will treat yours as well. Having taught middle school students, I'm quite efficient at managing sometimes unpredictable schedules and different personalities. I'm very playful yet organized, and love working with all kinds of animals. I'm quite patient, and enjoy watching their personalities unfold as they get to know me better. I Have worked with old as well sick animals, so I am more than capable to handle any emergency should one occur. I can administer medications as well. My neighbor and I are both pet sitters, and we often work together as each other's backups. We also help each other with our own and our other neighbor's pet. Because of that, we offer to both come to the initial meet and greet so you can meet both of us. I generally require a meet and greet to make sure we can see if we are a match. To me, my clients are part of my extended family, and I prefer long-term clients over constantly rotating ones. Leaving pets behind is always stressful, and having a long-term relationship with a sitter makes the separation a lot easier for both the pet and the owner.
