I am a studio art major, so I absolutely love helping little ones explore their creativity and imagination! I have about 7 years of childcare experience, and I adore every second of it.
I have two senior dogs and a hedgehog at home, and I love all pets. I am open to pet sitting and also dog walking! I have experience with cats, dogs, and other exotic pets of all ages.
I hope I can be of some help! Please feel free to reach out. :)
