I’m a responsible and caring student with hands-on experience supporting both children and animals. While I don’t have formal childcare certifications yet, I’ve spent meaningful time helping care for my younger cousins—assisting with playtime, cleanup, and meal preparation. I’m patient, adaptable, and comfortable handling everyday routines that help kids feel safe and supported. I also offer elementary and middle school tutoring services, helping kids grasp concepts using examples and hands on learning experiences.

As a lifelong pet owner, I bring deep familiarity with a wide range of animals and their specific needs. I currently care for three dogs, two birds, a rabbit, and 21 chickens, and I’m confident in feeding routines, habitat maintenance, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Whether it’s daily exercise, grooming, or specialized care, I’m committed to keeping pets happy and healthy.

I’m eager to offer dependable support to families in need of childcare or pet care, and I approach every task with attention to detail and a genuine love for helping others.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Boarding Provider

Follow these handy tips for hiring a private pet boarding provider perfect for ensuring your furry family member is safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.

1. Check Their Experience

Ask how long they’ve been boarding pets and what kinds of animals they specialize in (dogs, cats, exotics).

2. Verify Training & Certifications

Look for credentials in pet CPR/first aid, animal behavior, or relevant pet care associations.

3. Tour the Boarding Environment

Visit their home or facility to confirm it’s clean, safe, and pet-friendly with secure fencing, proper ventilation, and comfortable spaces.

4. Ask About Daily Care & Routine

Understand how often pets are fed, walked, played with, and allowed outside.

5. Clarify Supervision Levels

Find out if pets are supervised overnight, how often they’re checked on, and how many pets are boarded at once.

6. Review Health & Safety Policies

Confirm vaccination requirements, flea/tick prevention, emergency protocols, and how illness or injuries are handled.

7. Discuss Special Needs Care

Ask if they can handle pets with medical conditions, medications, dietary needs, or anxiety.

Read testimonials or speak with past clients to verify reliability and quality of care.

9. Understand Communication Style

Ask if they’ll provide daily updates, photos, or videos while you’re away for peace of mind.

10. Start with a Trial Stay

Book an overnight trial to see how your pet adjusts and how attentive the provider is before committing to a longer trip.
