My pet and housesitting experience spans over 25 years. During this time I have walked and played with dogs, groomed and exercised horses, taken care of goats, flying squirrels, ferrets, tropical birds, cats, lizards, chickens, pet bunnies and rats. I have worked with a number of rescue pets. My duties have included administering medications and caring for ill and elderly pets. Fortunately I am a writer which allows me to spend time with the pets during the day and evening. I maintain a clean house and have enjoyed a number of longer term pet and housesitting positions. I live on an island in Puget Sound and would be willing to pet and housesit on other islands as well. I play, cuddle, and love all the pets in my care.
