Hello,
I have had 8 years of experience watching all kinds of animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, and rodents. I also have experience with housekeeping and I am open to watching animals that I do not have a ton of experience with. I am quick to learn and can follow instructions and routines.
