I’ve cared for animals for many years and have experience with pets of all kinds. I raised and cared for my own Border Collie for 6 years, so I’m very familiar with the exercise, attention, and mental stimulation that active and high-energy dogs need. I also cared for someone else’s cat for about a year and understand how important it is to respect each pet’s individual personality and routine. Beyond dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for turtles, rabbits, parrots, and hamsters over the years. Having experience with so many different animals has taught me to be patient, attentive, and observant of their different needs and behaviors. I’ll treat your pet with the same care I’d give my own, follow your instructions closely, and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away!
