About Christopher
Hello! My name is Christopher Caresquero. I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have been taking care of them since I was very young. I have dealt with a range of animals from dogs and cats to even more exotic animals like snakes and lizards in case other pets need sitting. I spent seven years in the military, where I was in charge of protecting and caring for people's lives, so I am aware of how crucial trust is especially when it comes to our animal friends. I am professional and quite knowledgeable about the requirements and care of animals.
About my service:
I have a strong passion for animals and always prioritise their needs. Exercise is crucial for the animals I look after, which can insist of a leisurely stroll around your neighbourhood or a pleasant, long trek in the UoG Arboretum. If your animal has any unique requirements or behaviours that I can cater to, please let me know. I am happy to deliver any medications or take any other actions necessary to protect your pet's health and safety.I don't have a preference for the animals I care for because I've lived with so many animals of various sizes and temperaments.All animals will be treated with the utmost care, including those with particular requirements, who will still be stimulated but in a different way.
