I'm an experienced dog (boxer/bulldog) and cat (snowshoe) owner, and have had a lot of reptiles over the years (box turtle and bearded dragons). Some aviary experience.
I am more than happy to take care of your furry/non furry friends in the comfort of their homes when you are unable. Animals of all ages and sizes welcome.
