I have many years experience with all kinds of animals. My family are huge pet lovers and both of my grandparents live on farms so I grew up surrounded by animals. I have owned cats, dogs, hamsters, fish and a chinchilla. I have experienced with all of these animals but I have owned cats and dogs the longest. My first dog was a terrier and we had her for 19 years. My current dog at home with my parents is a rescue and he's a German Shepard. I've had a few cats also over the years, even wild ones. I have done dog and cat sitting for friends and family a number of times, including overnight stays. I really love animals and would be more than happy to care for peoples' pets! No matter what kind. I worked as a care assistant for 4 years in Ireland where I cared for people with disabilities. As my clients were often very vulnerable, being punctual and organised was extremely important in the job. I have excellent caring skills.
