Information Rachel M. would like to know about your pet

What is their eating schedule like and what are their unique behaviors and habits that might be important to know. Any favorite toys or activities? Jumpy with kids, squirrels or cats? And of course, any medications or allergies that I need to be aware of.

A typical day

I love to play fetch and be interactive with the dogs that I care for. I am also a huge fan of cuddles! I like taking them for walks to nearby parks and the neighborhood I live in is very grassy and fairly quiet. There aren't a lot of other dogs or children around so the walks are always peaceful! With cats, I enjoy utilizing any toys they love to keep them entertained and stimulated.

Pet care experience

I have been around animals my whole life. My best friend growing up practically had a farms worth of cats and dogs. When I was a little bit older we adopted our first family dog and I still miss him to this day! I house my friends cats and dogs while they are away and I am always excited when they ask. I love having a furry friend around!
