Carolyn J. Pet Care Provider in Fremont, CA 94538

I've been an animal lover all my life. As a child I would delay my family on walks by needing to pet every cat on the journey and make friends with every neighbor's dog. At parties, after exchanging pleasantries, I invariably end up gravitating toward the host's pets and making friends. I've personally owned dogs, cats, rats, mice, turtles, and fish. In addition I've cared for horses, birds, guinea pigs, snakes and lizards, and probably other critters that aren't coming to mind. My training has been primarily informal, though as a schoolchild I volunteered with an animal rescue operation during which I learned a lot about medication administration and animal behaviors, and in later years I volunteered at the SPCA. I am a respectful houseguest who truly enjoys spending time with all kinds of animal companions. As I am currently transitioning between living situations I have no pets of my own at this time, and I miss their company, so I am willing and eager to lavish love and attention on your beloved pets while you're away. I have many years of house and petsitting experience and can provide references.
