I provide pet sitting or keep up with their routine while you are out. I currently have 3 dogs and care of chickens. I understand how things can change suddenly and it is hard to find someone who will care for them as great as you do.
As a proud owner of a Belgian Milionis / German Shepard Mix along with a blue nose pit, I have experience in walking, feeding, and playing with high energy pups. I also have experience with various breeds and with cats as well but I am also open to learning how to care for any of your pets needs!
