Dog sitters in Irmo, SC
I have been caring for dogs, cats, and fish since I was about 10. I would watch my neighbors animals when they went on vacation and I also had first hand experience with animals in my own home. About 3 years ago, I started doing overnight pet sitting. I am patient and calm with animals and am not intimidated by size or breed.
