Pet care experience

Huge animal loving pack leader

Huge animal lover. Enjoy getting outside and taking the pets everywhere with me. Patient, willing to work with and treat train if needed! I’ve had pets my whole life and loved every one like they were family. I have a degree in wildlife management and currently work in an animal care facility. I have two cats, one is 12 year old female tabby, the other is a 10 year old tuxedo male, they are my whole world. I adopted a puppy from Hope rescue and we are absolute best friends. Her name is Fern and she is your typical very happy and curious puppy. We also have 6 chickens that are in a separate run next to the backyard. I love any and all animals but will need to be sure they are ok with cats. Your pet will be treated like my family as I treat my pets. I am open minded and very loving towards animals. Thank you for considering me!

I'm confident my pet is in good hands with Rachel. Very thankful she could drop in and check on the pup.

Schedule

I have two full days off to cater to animals and evenings after work for most others. We would enjoy the outdoors, have a lot of enrichment time both mentally and physically, and a ton of affection. MUST BE comfortable in a large crate ONLY while I am at work (9-5) to be fair to my two older house cats. I will put “dog TV” on for them and there is water bowl attached in cage. I also have enrichment treats like peanut butter lick mats etc. As soon as I am home we will play.
