2. Zoe J.
About: I've had pets of all kinds and ages my whole life. I'm adept at distributing medicine, calming storm nerves, bathing, and snuggles. I've taken care of puppies and senior dogs alike. I've trained my own dogs on leash walking and standard commands. I've taken care of large breed and small breed dogs. I have 2 dogs currently, and a full stack of cats as well, so I'm familiar with a blended fur-family. I go to community college locally and work part time so I have a good amount of time to hang out with your fuzzier members of your family! I take care of my parent's house so they can both work and leaves me with a flexible schedule. I offer overnight sitting in your house so that your pets can be as comfortable as possible in their own familiar surroundings. Changes of routine can be confusing for dogs and cats and sometimes it's just easier for them if they have a buddy hanging out with them!

15. Charlotte S.
About: I have had a few dogs over my lifetime, I've loved them all no matter what. Whether the breed be big or small, they are all worthy of love and time. I go to school several days of the week, albeit in the mornings. I would love to take care of pets throught the day after classes and in free time. I take an immense amount of care of all pets in my home. For the cats: Neither of them are allowed outside due to safety concerns and they both have time to play, including toys and with each other. For dogs: With dogs I have owned I have taken care of them many ways. A big one is walks I gave, 30-45 minute walks with breaks! I also provide toys and enrichment when possible! I am currently looking further into what to do for some other fun tactics!

19. Lakita G.
About: My name is Lakita. I initially went to college in for marine biology and zoology before I changed my love of animals into a live in hobby. My children and I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, a hedgehog, fish, and soon a bearded dragon. I've had animals of my own since I was in elementary school of all kinds. I started house sitting and walking pets for my own parents and their friends in 11th grade and have continued if needed over the years. I have never had any difficulties or emergency during those times. Typically I work from home each week and occasionally leave on the weekends for sports activities. My after work activities are normal local or in Roanoke. I can easily crate a pet within my home away from the friendly animals in my home. I'm about to go to a home and provide any animals walks/breaks as needed and feed them.
