Hello! I have cared for pets on and off for the last 2 years. This included pet sitting, walking, vehicle transportation, appointments, etc. I also grew up with multiple dogs and a cat in my home, so I am comfortable with all breeds. Hope to hear from you!

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!
