Pet care experience

Committed lover of all animals!

I’ve been in a home with pets my entire life. I started taking on their responsibilities at just 5 years old and fell in love with it. Pets are so important to us so it’s my top priority to make sure your pet is healthy and happy while in my care.

Thank you so much for taking care of our dogs and our ferret we were gone! They were in great hands with you and very happy you were able to take care of them. Thanks again!

Temperence really saved the day! Our previous sitter cancelled last minute and Temperence agreed to watch the girls on a whim, allowing us to still take our mini vacay! She provided pictures of the girls playing outside and getting loves. Would love to have Temperence check in on the girls next time we travel! thanks so much!

Schedule

I’m currently unemployed so my free time is basically infinite. I have 3 pets of my own who harbor a bit of my time, but I made a set schedule that works for all of them. I’m always free for walks, treats, and cuddles!

Pets

A typical day

One of my favorite activities is outside time. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or simply laying in the sun I am all for it. I’m also a big fan of cuddles and love nap time with the animals. I’m also great at giving them baths and some treats for reassurance.

It’s important to me to know of any medical issues your pet may have. Allergies, medications, and medical conditions are all very important to me and I want to make sure your pet receives the best while with a new human. There’s hardly anything I will turn you down for and it’s all based on my medical ability and not my own thoughts.
