Hello, I have experience with pets: guinea pigs, dogs (coonhound, german shepherd), parakeets, and cockatiels.
One of the greatest rewards of being a pet sitter is the unconditional love and companionship you receive from the pets in your care. From wagging tails to warm purrs, furry friends have a remarkable ability to brighten your day and provide a sense of comfort. I have pets of my own and just enjoy working with them.
