Hi there! I'm a longtime animal-lover. My current cat Bandit is my 3rd one (all rescues) over the last 24 years. My apartment doesn't allow dogs, but I always want to greet and pet the ones I see. In the US, I volunteered with the Seattle Animal Shelter for 3 years and worked as a full-time dog walker and pet sitter for 5 years. In addition to lots of dogs (from chihuahuas to mastiffs) and cats, I've also cared for tortoises, lizards, rats, guinea pigs, chickens--I like just about any animal. I seem to have a special connection with them; sometimes they're easier to understand than people! I'd love to walk your dog(s) or look in on your other pets for food, attention, or playtime.
