Pet Sitter in Richmond, British Columbia

I adore animals, am very kind, gentle, intuitive re their comfort & needs - i.e. socializing, hugs, attentive should they be in discomfort - know when a vet is required. I owned 2 wonderful cats (calico and tabby) for 15 years, and an equally wonderful Aussie Terrier for 13 - all pets required special health care at various points in their long lives. I recently signed up to be an SPCA volunteer in Sechelt, BC - (just completed RCMP Criminal Check). I am currently alternating living in both Richmond and the Sunshine Coast in order to care for my elderly mother. Please see below. I am well versed in: kitty litter changing, fresh water 24/7, grooming to avoid hairballs, protective as a hawk against safety/dangers - one of my cats had chronic kidney issues - I am very attentive to know when pets are experiencing discomfort - when to take to vet. I cared for my dear Aussie Terrier from 3 to 13 - she experienced deafness, blindness and dementia for 3 years. I love animals - talking with them, playing with them, and hugging them. Re: grooming this would extend to brushing only at this point since the animals would not be yet familiar with me.
