I have no years of experience with anyone else's pets but my own and families. I can help with Pet Walking but I prefer pet sitting. I've owned many animals such as dogs, cats, fish, turtles, hamsters, and bearded dragons. I'm 21 and diabetic so it's hard to make money; and I want to study wildlife or marine biology someday.
