Gea L. Pet Care Provider in Portland, OR 97201

Hello! My name is Gea Lightburn. I am 18 years old and am taking a gap year to work and explore before pursuing a degree in music technology. Also, I love cats! Not being allowed my own cat as a kid, I grew up watching the pets in my neighborhood, and my love for animals did not stop there. I was a volunteer at the Willamette Humane Society in the Cat Hospitality Unit, where my duties included cleaning cages and litter boxes, refreshing water, making sure they were eating and that they were given the proper food, and, of course, giving each animal love, attention, and socialization through playing, brushing and snuggling. I stayed with the organization long enough to receive advanced training to work in the feline quarantine, where especially sick cats and kittens resided as they recovered from disease or illness. I cared for approximately 25-35 cats and kittens on a given shift, and believe I can provide the same level of love and attentiveness to your feline family members. In addition to caring for your animal, I am also open to general house sitting duties.
