I'm my family and friends' favorite pet sitter. I'll always treat your pets as if they were my own. If requested, I send pictures so you can see how they're doing. I also know how to give pets pills, put meds in eyes, and give insulin shots, if needed. Growing up, I had cats, dogs, parakeets, fish, tiny frogs, and a hamster. When we got Buffy, our family dog, I learned how a pet can truly become a member of the family. In 2000, I adopted my first pets as an adult - a marvelously snuggly trio of cats, Coco, Queso, and Andy. Some of my pet sitting includes a corgi who could chase a ball endlessly, an older mastiff that needs eye meds and tummy rubs, little energetic Jack Russell terriers, a pitbull who loves playing tug-of-war, and 2 kitties that just want me to pick them up. Trixi, my bichon mix niece, does a little happy dance the moment I pull up in front of the house. It's amazing how her ears knows the difference between the cars of the dreaded mailman and the favorite aunt! All in all, I have plenty of time and love to share with your animals, the calmness to help a shy or anxious animal warm up to a stranger, and the patience to move at a senior dog's pace. I love caring for animals so they don't feel alone while their parents are away. I look forward to hearing from you!
