About Eileen

I'd describe myself as gentle, fun-loving, and outdoorsy. I like working with animals because they appreciate and deserve love, attention, and safety - sometimes more than their families can provide - and they bring me joy!! I'm looking for a job that combines fun and outdoor time, for example, walks in the park or exploring wooded trails followed by snuggling on the couch. I started working with animals when I was in middle school, caring for neighbors' dogs, fish, reptiles, gerbils, and hermit crabs while they went away on family vacations. In my spare time, I like to hike, read, bicycle, travel and tend my gardens. I'm honest, caring, and reliable. My skills include compassionate soothing, providing exercise, understanding and meeting needs for food and love.
