Pet care in Alamo, CA
I just moved back to the Bay Area after graduating from college and having my first corporate job. It wasn't what I had expected so for now I'm looking to nanny or watch animals while I explore other options! I have two dogs of my own, a Golden Retriever and a Mini Australian Shepherd so I'm more than comfortable watching dogs!
