I'm a dog and cat purr-son

Pet care experience

I had several dogs and cats in my household growing up and have decades of experience caring for all types of breeds with differing needs and energy levels. I currently have 2 friendly cats who might as well be dogs (they are friendly with both dogs and cats). I've been volunteering at animal shelters since I was a kid and have fostered cats. I also have extensive experience caring for rodents, birds, reptiles, and horses. My family and I are all big animal-lovers. Pictures of me with family and friends' pets can be found in my photo gallery.

Wendy was excellent! My cats warmed up to her quickly, and she readily asked questions when she needed something! :) I came home to happy, well fed kitties!
