Pet Sitter in Genoa, Illinois

Well bottom line is I love animals and Always have! I grew up always wanting to watch wild life documentaries and basically anything on animal planet! I have been trying to find more jobs that involve animals. I am in recovery for depression and anxiety and being around/taking care of animals is really therapeutic for me. I go to an equine assisted psyotherapist every week; meaning the horses help me in therapy mentally not physically, which also means it's not a therapy for rehabilitating horses or anything like that- but I would actually be very interested in possibly pursueing that as a career eventually haha. I used to ride horses a lot when I was younger and then hadn't gotten the chance to be around them since, so the therapy is really nice because I have missed horses so much hahaha! But I also absolutely love dogs! Big or small I love them all! I have two dogs now, one larger and younger dog and then one smaller and older dog. I used to have two others but they passed away from old age. The youngest and largest dog I have I adopted from a shelter. Along with the dogs I have three cats (had another one but he passed away a few years ago). My oldest cat is actually a year older then me, getting pretty concerned about her and her old age, yikes. I also have had some experience with some reptiles and of course with some smaller fur animals like hamsters, rabbits, and ferrets and so on. I had a job for a small time at the horse stables I used to take lessons at. My job involved giving pony rides and keeping the petting zoos clean and safe! and it was so fun! So, I have lots of experience with all types of animals and would be more then happy to help you out with any of your pets needs! I can check in on them, stay for a few hours, and I'd even do a night visit/stay if you need! Even if you were to want to drop them off at my place (i know some people prefer that so if it's what you prefer and you and your pet are okay with the fact that I have other pets then that's alright too!) I can- feed and water them, let them out to go to the bathroom, walk/exercise them, play with and even just give them company if your pet happens to have some seperation anxiety. And my schedule is flexibal!
