Pet care in Amherst, NH
Don't have the time to walk your dog like you would like to? I do! I have been a pet owner for over 20 years and currently have two rescue dogs. I love nature and I love dogs and I thought I would combine the two. I believe that a healthy pet is a happy pet and dog walking is an easy way to help achieve a healthy pet weight.

I have done pet sitting for a few families. I mostly have experience with cats and dogs but I would be willing to learn how to take care of other animals. I have done in-house pet sitting where I stay full time with the animal. More than willing to take for walks, clean litter, play, etc.
