I have been caring for pets for the previous four years. I grew up around all different breeds of cats and dogs so I am comfortable with nearly all breeds. Depending on the animal I stop into your home between two and five times per day. I have great references, feel free to ask for them!

For about a year, I cared for pets. I helped feed and care for cats, but mostly dogs. I have stayed overnight, but for now I prefer just sitting. I can walk however many dogs you have, make sure I feed them to your schedule and of course, play with them. I have three cats of my own, and one dog.
