Pet Sitting for Dogs, Cats, Birds, or Fish.

I have been pet sitting for my neighbors for many years when they go on vacation. I love animals and am very reliable. I live in the Nottingham area, so I would like to stay in that area if you need a sitter. I am very loving to the animals and they all take to me. I will not take care of snakes. Thank you.
