My name is Bronte, and I have been a pet owner since I was born. I grew up with animals and had a deep love and affection for them starting very early. I started dog walking in my neighborhood when I was 6 or 7 and continued to care for animals into my teenage and young adult life. I have been pet sitting since around 2020 and have taken care of a wide variety of animals of all ages. I have experience with exotic pet care, elderly animal care, fur baby care, and anything in between. I strive to care for each pet as if it were my own and I approach pet sitting with same love, care, and respect I would give any animal or person I meet.
