Therapy dogs in Hamden, CT
In the past, I have spent a lot of time volunteering at nursing homes. I am interested in being able to provide in-home services and am willing to learn. Especially recently, I understand that seniors need more help during the pandemic and I am very cautious so as to not bring any type of sickness to work.
Housekeeping has been something that my family has always instilled in me. It was always important to maintain a clean and organized home. Now as a wife I enjoy keeping my home clean and inviting for my guests. I would like to gain more experience in deep cleaning in order to provide better service to clients.
