Recently relocated from Brazil, I'm looking for opportunities to help people care for their pets. I've always lived surrounded by animals - I had three dogs in Brazil and brought my cat with me to the U. S. Caring for pets feels natural to me, and it would be a pleasure to support you and your furry family whenever you need.
