My journey with animals started when I was young, surrounded by pets. Over the past decade or so, I've been pet sitting for family, friends, colleagues and their connections. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from chatty Chihuahuas to lightning-fast Greyhounds. But it's not just dogs; I've also taken care of cats, fish, reptiles, chickens, and most recently an eighty-year-old tortoise named Wallace. I'm experienced in administering medications, managing dietary needs, and providing tailored care for pets with special requirements. Plus, I'm trained in dog first aid. In addition to pet care, I take pride in maintaining a clean and tidy home. Whether it’s tending to the veggie patch, watering the house plants or just keeping up with the household chores, I approach every house and pet sitting assignment as if it were my own home and the pets were members of my own family.
