I can't imagine my childhood without our family pets. I grew up on a small acreage that was basically a petting zoo. Our animals were some of my first playmates and have always been a part of the family to me. That upbringing, as well as watching others' pets from childhood until now, has given me experience caring for animals of all sizes, shapes, and ages. I am an active person so I truly enjoy the energy our pets bring to our lives. In my time caring for animals, I have developed useful skills and am comfortable with both oral and topical medication administration. I'm also happy to provide feedings, walking, and/or just generally help your furry friend burn off some energy! I love to run and walk and would gladly take your dog along with me (if that's something they like, of course)! I currently work full time but have availability to care for your pets over the weekend and certain evenings. My love of animals, my previous experience, and current availability make me well-suited to care for your furry (or feathery) family member(s)! I'd love the chance to meet them!
