Personal connections with animals

Pet care experience

I have been known as an animal whisperer because I am good with animals. For example, my friend's pet macaw hates people but became fond of me over time, I'm one of the only few people that she's fine with. I always seem to make animals calm and feel safe. Working with animals makes me feel good. Whenever my grandma needs someone to take care of her dog, she knows she can always rely on me; I brush her, feed her, bathe her and even trim her feet.

Raina was great! She was kind enough to meet the dogs before her first visit to make sure it was a good fit. She gave us a nice update. We would definitely have her back again.

Raina was excellent with my cats and older dog. She kept them happy and well fed. Our house was taken great care of and we felt that our animals had a good time with her. Our cats that are usually a little skittish around new people did warm up to her and were happy and healthy when we returned! We will definitely use her again on a future trip!

Raina is very sweet and took good care of our dogs while we were out of town for the weekend. No complaints!

Safety, trust & environment

At home, I have two dogs. I feed them in the morning, walk them, play with them, clean after them and give them love. With others' pets, I would treat them as if they were my pets, however, I make sure that any door or window is secured so they can't escape out of the house and make sure they're comfortable.
