Pet care experience

Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have had always had a deep curiosity to learn about and care for different types of animals. I couldn't imagine my life without them. I love working with them, I am of the opinion that this type of work is my calling, it brings me so much happiness; animals bring so much joy into my life. My experience in pet care ranges from having my own pets ( doggies, parrots, koi fish, cats to name a few) and caring for others pets over the years. I would love to take care of your dog or any other of your pets! I have experience with: fish, parrots, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, cats, chickens, ducks, etc... send me a message if you have something specific. I also have lots of experience with puppies. My hobbies include fitness, cooking, spending time with my pets, the outdoors, crafting, computers, music, vinyl collecting ,photography and bird watching.- just to name a few :) I leave you with one of my favourite quotes of all time! Until one has loved an animal a part of one's soul remains unawakened. - Anatole France

Nina is very sweet and great with our kitties! She sent lots of photos while we were away and she was able to give medicine to one of our cats.

My dog seemed to really enjoy his time with Nina. As the owner, I also felt at ease because Nina offered to provide updates while I was away. He got to have a lot of care and fun, while I had plenty of peace of mind.

Nina was awesome. She developed a relationship with my cat Liam quickly. I never had a single worry. She updated me daily and it was a great experience!
