I can provide pet care in your home or mine. I have lots of experience with animals. I have a pit-bull mastiff mix and I also have a small chihuahua. If I am watching your pets in my home they must be kid friendly as I have kids. Growing up I have had lots of different animals like rabbits, hamsters, fishes, chickens, etc.
