Thank you so much for considering me to care for your pet. I hope you’ll read through my profile, reach out to me with any questions you have and let me know what you’re looking for, so we can determine if we’re the right fit. I live in Birmingham with my partner and our 3 cats (Harvey, Catfish, and Lewis) in the Huffman neighborhood. I’ve had family dogs and cats my whole life, and I regularly pet sit for my parents and little brother who both have special needs pets who require injected medications. I was asked to pet sit for my neighbors’ special needs dog for the first time when I was 9. In high school I was a professional animal caretaker at the Greater Birmingham Human Society, and in college, I was co-parent to my best friend’s miniature dachshund, caring for her on my own often when my friend was out of town or working late. I had a hamster for several years, cared for a friend’s rabbits when his family would go out of town, and helped look after a saltwater fish and an iguana who belonged to former roommates when they were out of town, so I have experience caring for more “non-traditional” pets as well. I have experience administering oral, topical, and injected meds to pets. I love caring for animals, and they seem to like me a lot as well. I will always put your pets’ needs first and be fully transparent letting you know if I am unable to meet any of your requests so that your are able to find a different caregiver to meet your needs. I am happy to do a free meet and greet prior to bookings. Please reach out with any questions.
