Growing up, my family always had pets in the home. We had cats and dogs at various times, and even guinea pigs, hamsters, and the occasional fresh water fish! My first puppy was a tiny little Bichon who I named Cotton because he looked like, well, a giant bouncing cotton ball. I currently have two older cats, Shane MacMeowan (any Pogues fans out there?) and Mogwai. They were adopted together, already bonded brothers, who were apparently found left in a box. The two were rescued, and I have been living with them ever since. They turned 13 in November. Other than my own pets, I have housesat various homes of family members (and a couple non-family) to take care of their pets while away. Because I do not have proper space for a dog currently, I especially love getting a chance to play with and care for them while their humans are away. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets! I also work in housekeeping, and can include some light housework for overnight stays if desired.
