About: Hello! I have lived with at least one pet in my house my whole life so animals are very important to me. I have taken care of a lot of different cats and dogs both small and large. I use to volunteer at a no-kill shelter specifically in the cat section so I understand a lot about caring for cats. I have dog sat all my family and friends dogs at least once when they needed me to so having more than one dog in the house is something I am used to. I adore animals to say the least and that means they will always be priority to me. Dogs cats bunnies birds you name it I will take care of them! My approach to each pet is unique and based specifically for them. I promise your fur baby will be loved a million in my care💞 I currently work full-time however before or after work and on weekends I tend to take up pet jobs. However everyday I personally live with 3 cats and 9 chickens who are always top priority. I work my schedule around them and work but always do my best to have availability for all of you. No matter the pet I always make sure everything needed to them is easily accessible. There is a lot to do for any animal so laziness is never an option for me! I tend to adjust my form of care depending on the pets needs. Some want more lay back days and i’m all for it. Others need to get energy out so we go and do that. Some need to work on social skills and if they aren’t my personal pets I ask for permission before offering some sort of socialization training. Training in general is always offered when needed.
