Hello! I love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds, and would love to take great care of yours! I pursued a love of animals after college by working at Petsmart's dog grooming salon. There, I learned how to handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments, with a focus on the safety and comfort of the dog, attention to detail, and building up good dog and people communication skills. After cleaning kennels, no mess can shock me anymore! I also sadly had a cat who passed away from cancer. During her care, I learned how to give medication in pill and liquid form and give subcutaneous fluids. If your cat has any medical needs, I'm confident that I can handle them if shown what to do. I have also owned small animals in the past and learned a little about their care and handling during my time at work. Whether dog walking or any kind of pet sitting in general, your little buddy will be in good hands!
