Pet Sitter in Athens, Georgia

Hi, my name is Nina and I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. My mom can tell you the story of how I had a funeral for a lizard (yes, you read correctly; a lizard) in our driveway when I was around 8 or 9 years old. So when i say I've adored animals for most of my life, I'm not just saying it to say it, its actually the truth. My favorite animal would have to be horses. I've wanted one pretty much my whole life. never had one or had the chance to work with them but I hope that changes in the near future. My lifelong goal is to own a horse one day, or at the very least, get to work with them. My next favorite animal would be dogs. Especially breeds like German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Pitbulls, Dalmations, and Chihuahuas. But, I will work with any and all breed types. I use to work at a kennel in my teens. Worked there for two years. Mostly in the puppy room but I also worked with the momma dogs as well. I loved the puppies and I was great at making sure their cages were cleaned and that they were all taken care of. I also administered shots and medication to the puppies as well. It is, to this day, my favorite job and the one I miss the most. My dream is to work with animals again some day. Either with horses or dogs or both. I also like cats. Mostly cats that aren't mine. I grew up with cats and had the lovely task of cleaning out the litter box and I hated it so that's probably why I have such a love/hate relationship with cats now. That's not to say that you shouldn't message me if you'd like me to take care of your cat because I would love to. Mostly because the litter box will be yours again once the day is over with. Haha! I'm available for overnight care, dog walking, feeding, or anything else that you may need. I've also trained all of my own dogs so that could be a thing as well, I just don't have any certificates or anything like that with dog training. But I wouldn't turn down a dog training job if you'd like to give me a chance in training your own dog. Whether with house training, walking on a leash, or just the standard sit, stay, roll over. I'm open to any and all things that you need help with. I can't wait to hear from you and to meet your precious little furbabies!!
