About: I have many years of experience of pet sitting animals from others in my family as well as my dog of my own. I love to go above and beyond when making animals feel comfortable and well fed I’m a 20 year old student who loves spending her free time with animals. Taking care of my own chihuahua, she is a senior dog. I’ve had her for about 16 years now and she is my world. In my own home dealing with a senior dog who’s lost her vision and teeth I’ve learned to change her surroundings, I make sure she’ll have a clear way to walk around the house so that she won’t have anything she can possibly bump into, also changing her food diet where she’ll have no trouble eating since solids have become harder for her.
