I provide pet sitting in your home. I've had the pleasure of caring for 2 beautiful cats. While living NYC I was a dog walker and pet sitter. My brother's dog is my favorite nephew and each time I'm home we go hiking together and I escape lengthy conversations by throwing the ball with him in the yard.
