I have personal, hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs through family efforts to take in animals that were rescued from the streets or abandoned. I helped with feeding routines, fresh water, supervised play, keeping their areas clean, and monitoring behavior as they adjusted to a new environment. I’m comfortable being patient with animals who may be anxious, shy, or still learning routines. I also worked overnight as a caregiver for individuals with special needs, so I’m very used to staying attentive, following instructions carefully, maintaining cleanliness, and monitoring for changes - skills that translate well to overnight pet care in a boarding facility.
