Pet sitters in Portsmouth, NH
I'd describe my personality as empathetic, respectful, and affectionate.
I like working with animals because they are one of the universe's greatest gifts to humankind.. and they're incredible cute. All of them.
In my spare time, I like to spend time outdoors, work on small projects, try new recipes, and snuggle with my cats.

I'm an outdoor enthusiast and no type of weather deters me from getting out! Thanks for your consideration! I have references both for dog walking and personal character.
