Pet care in Rochester, NY
I have been taking care of animals/pets since I was very young. I've taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, rats, birds, sugar gliders, to newts, chameleons, to chinchillas, and more. I had a Bernese mountain dog that I took great care of until sadly I had to put him down. Now I currently still have a 9-year-old cat.
