I love animals but hey don't we all here. I have pet sat for many people including farm sitting for chickens/ducks, horses, sheep, goats. I've dog and cat sat many times. I have 2 cats of my own. I grew up around many animals, everyone else in my family owns dogs so I've been pet sitting for them since I was a kid. I've had hamsters, a rat, a rabbit and many fish. And I used to volunteer at a pet store so my knowledge of small critters is extensive.
I work full time and am usually gone during the day between 7 am and 4:30 pm. Depending on location I can house sit during the week but I don't have my own vehicle so I'd have to check that there is a reasonable bus route. Most weekends I am free. I am willing to board pets but only in special circumstances since our house already has 3 cats who have access to go outside 24/7.
