I love all animals. I've always loved cats and I take care of my boyfriends cats all the time. I have a dog at home, she is a boxer shepherd mix and I adore her. As a pet sitter I can do tasks such as feeding them, taking them outside, walking them and playing with them.

To start off with my own experience at home. I have 2 large Shepherds & 5 cats! I am aware of how much of a commitment it is to care for an animal and how important they are to us! I also do this as a way to earn extra cash. I am currently a FT nanny and have some time to spare while kids are in school!
