Summary
I have Animal care experience gain through freelance work on and off sites like Rover, where I currently hold a 5 star rating. I take the time to get to know every animal I care for, so they feel safe and happy. I have taken care of all kinds of animals all ranging from a plethora of different personalities, attention spans, and energy levels, nothing surprises me anymore, and I can adapt quickly. Keeping animals stress free and comfortable is my top priority, whether I'm visiting in their home or hosting in mine. I follow all instruction provided to me by my clients to ensure satisfaction.
