Please wear a mask for drop off and pickup! I'm compassionate, reliable, and friendly. I adore animals, especially dogs and cats, and would be more than happy to host pets in my apartment or visit pets at their homes. However, I do not own a car, so for house visits I would prefer homes close to where I live. Otherwise I would appreciate assistance with transportation, unless your home is near a bus route I can take. I had my own dog, Lucky, who lived with my parents in Miami. She was a bichon frise who made it to the ripe old age of 17. Back when I lived in Miami, when my parents went on vacation, I would take care of her while they were away. Dogs (and most cats) tend to befriend me almost immediately, and I enjoy giving them lots of affection and care. I would prefer to handle pets that are potty trained, especially since my apartment has a mostly carpeted floor, and will consider puppies and kittens who are potty trained. I will also consider larger dogs as long as they are non-aggressive, especially on walks (I love dogs of all sizes and breeds! This is primarily for safety reasons, for myself, your dog, and other dogs and people). Unfortunately, the lease in my apartment only allows dogs up to 65 lbs., so I can't accept dogs past that size. I prefer at least a day's notice before booking, but can accept last-minute bookings if I'm available. I look forward to meeting your fur friends!
