Pet care experience

Friendly, interactive and flexible

I’ve had pets all my life, including some reptiles! I currently take care of two cats and a sweet ball python. I’m great with cats and dogs, and I’m able to correctly give medicine and cut their nails if needed. I know how pets can be the most important part of our lives, and it’s our duty to love them and provide them the best service.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment with my two cats who if needed can be put in a separate room. I always like to sweep and vacuum all areas to avoid due to accumulate, I always like to give them treats an hour before meals, as well as clean their water and food bowls once a day

Pets

A typical day

For cats I like to groom them if needed, cut their nails if directed and needed, but most importantly spend quality time with them as long as they’re comfortable with that! For dogs I love taking them on walks and runs, always good to keep a high energy dog on a trot.
