I got started house sitting after college. I was a private Mathematics tutor and Music Instructor, and I became very close with one of the families for which I taught both of their kids. So, when they went out of town for their vacations, they asked me to take care of their house, young labrador, and three cats. I was the only person they knew that they believed could handle their rambunctious (in a good way) dog. And they were right! We all had a blast! I also helped my sister, who I lived with, care for her four (and growing) dog collection. In present day, I find myself at home full-time for a short stint. I figure that I should do what I love best with my free time: care for animals! I love to help out in any way I can. I have four cats at home, so I really understand what goes into caring for an animal and a house. With that being said, I would also LOVE to take care of cats as well. I've had multiple cats for a long time, and I really enjoy being around all types of cats.
