I have done in house, overnight dog sitting for multiple families in recent years. During my stay, I walked their pets daily, feed them on a schedule, and spent time with them. I am comfortable taking care of multiple cats and dogs.

I have always loved animals, and I grew up with a variety of different pets including dogs, cats, small mammals, frogs, and lizards. I volunteer at the Humane Society in my free time. I would love to come watch your pet in your own home when you're away, or just come care for it when you have a busy schedule.
