Hello! I have a little over 5 years in experience with caring for animals, whether it's dogs, cats, even snakes! Never grew up with pets, but once I got older, I just absolutely adore them! Mostly dogs, I love to play with them, make sure they are fed and go on walks, and just try to love on them as if they were my own!

I've been a paid dog walker for years. Excellent references. I own five cats, and birthed four of them in my home. I have always loved animals, sometimes more than people.
