I have been an animal lover my whole life! I live on a beautiful ranch in Freeport, where I take care of my pet duck, chicken, puppy, 4 yr old dog, fish, frogs, and cat! So you could say I am capable of helping with most of your needs when it comes to pet sitting, not to mention I'm just a well rounded person.
