I've always loved animals and had a variety of them in my home ever since I was a child! I've had birds, rodents, fish, reptiles, cats, and dogs. Friends, neighbors, co-workers, and friends-of-friends are always asking me to care for their pets while they're away. I've cared for single pets, multiple pets (including multiple kinds of pets), and both big and small dogs. I love each pet as if they're my own, and they usually get comfortable with me pretty quickly. I understand how important pets are to their humans, and that they are 100% members of the family! I also have experience with elderly and sick pets. The cat I'm fostering has to see the vet frequently and I have to give her a pill every morning. A few years ago my 15-year-old dog got very sick and I cared for him around the clock for several weeks until he passed. I've also rescued a few wild baby birds and kept them fed and warm until I could take them to a wildlife rescue. Whatever situation arises, the animal's well-being is my top priority!
