Lifetime of Multi-Breed Experience

Pet care experience

I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, including a Dalmatian, Cavapoo, Italian Greyhound, and now a Weimaraner puppy. I’m comfortable with different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. My grandparents have had cats for over 20 years, and I’ve often helped care for them as well, so I’m familiar with cat routines and gentle handling. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
