About: Hi, I’m Averi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets. I’ve raised 7 cats, 2 dogs, 3 rabbits, 3 birds, and even a desert tortoise, so no matter the species or personality, I’m comfortable and confident providing loving and patient care. I currently live with one friendly cat in my apartment, and while I don’t provide boarding, I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I truly believe pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own.
