I am currently a nursing student in Portland, Oregon. I have pet sit for many people of the past few years. The pets have ranged from large to small dogs, cats, fish, turtles, and even lizards. I love all animals so much and am a dependable pet person. I own two cats myself and they mean so much to me.
