Pet Sitter in Lutz, Florida

Hi there/Hola/WOOF/meow! I absolutely love animals of ALL kinds! I've had several different types of animals/fish/reptiles to care for throughout my life & have been caring for animals for about 30 years in total. From hamsters to horses, I've been around to care for them. I'm mostly a dog gal, but I currently have a 12-year-old Lilac Burmese cat named Tater I took a shine to, my personal fur baby & ESA. Tater was my late husband, William's ESA that I raised from a newborn kitten while William was going through chemo & radiation for terminal cancer. Then, sadly, William passed from cancer complications on St. Patrick's Day, 3/17/12. Tater has been around for me through tough times, very intelligent breed & picks up when he knows something is wrong or about to go wrong. Aside Tater, I have quite a few fish I care for as well. I also provide care for my father's 4-year-old Rottie mix Service Dog. My father is a 67 year-old Retired, but still kickin Automotive Mechanic & needs help with walks/bathing her. I'm overall GREAT with both cats, dogs, animals in general! They seem to be drawn towards me & listen/respond to me very well. I can also administer oral & injection medications & provide CPR in the event anything happens. I'm great with following any special or additional instructions given. I do ask questions if I have any to assure your pet is given the attention & caring he/she absolutely needs. Habla Español, bilingual...if you count dog, cat, bird & gator, I speak 6 languages! Feel free to ask about the alligator call video. It's a bit scary, but QUITE entertaining! I make sure to treat your special furbaby as if he/she were my own! Always check to make sure pets have fresh water & food. I do like to rinse bowls out before refilling food/water so there's no germs or bacteria, etc. Though, if instructed otherwise, I'll do whatever is asked. Also, whenever I see a chance to groom, I'll ask for a brush. Grooming is a nice opportunity for me to bond & help ease any anxieties if any. Helps to keep up with shedding during those heat waves! Looking forward to spending time caring for your fur baby/babies!
