My experiences are primarily as a nanny, but through my nannying experiences I have gotten to dog sit while the families are out of town. Some families have my stay in their home for animals with higher needs, and other families have me stop in 2-3 times a day. I love to hike, so I often take the dogs out on long walks with me...

Growing up, I was surrounded by animals that included cows, pigs, horses, cats and dogs. I currently have two cats that I absolutely love as well. I love coming to clean home, so right when I wake up in the morning, I find time to do a bit of cleaning. A clean home clears the mind and makes a person at ease in their environment.
