I will treat your pet like my own. I love animals and have heard from others that my animals are better treated then human children. I am not opposed to taking care of any pets(however I do have pets of my own; a border collie, a bunny, and a budgie). Your pets(and mine) safety is priority over anything else. I take great care of my own furry(and feathery) babies. I do not hesitate to take any of my animals to the Veternarian and that will go with yours as well unless otherwise advised not to. Most animals love me and if an animal doesn't love me- I am able to sway them eventually to at least tolerating me or understanding that I'm not there to hurt them. I am familiar with behaviors of dogs, cats, some birds, bunnies, hamsters, and some turtles. I have nails so when I scratch the favorite spots of animals they definitely love it- but don't worry I'm still gentle with the fragile ones. I'm available at my place to do doggie day care or boarding. My yard is big enough for plenty of dogs in the temporary. I do not allow unsupervised galavanting in the backyard because I do have a beautiful ocean access canal and do not want any pups to fall in. IF YOU HAVE A WATERDOG- let me know. I have access to a pool(my neighbors') but I don't want them to get ideas if they love any body of water- but I am an excellent swimmer. I've grown up with animals for 27 years(all my life), trained the "impossible"(even hamsters), and I love them with every beat of my heart.
