I would like to care for pets! I love all animals and have never lived without at least 2 cats! I especially enjoy walking dogs and playtime! I'm an outdoor enthusiast and no type of weather deters me from getting out! Thanks for your consideration! I have references both for dog walking and personal character.
Stay well!
