A little about me..... first and foremost I have a small medical companion dog (Pomeranian). He's 8 years old and he goes everywhere I go. I have been taking care of people off and on for 40 years. I spent my teen years babysitting and then started taking care of retired people. I love both kids and the elderly, but prefer adults. They have fun stories. I love getting to know people and "what makes them tick". My son is 22, lives out of state and has Aspergers. I have experience in many types of people. My last 2 people were in their 80's and 90's. Both women had dementia. I have many years of experience with different types of ailments. I really enjoy caregiving. I get personal satisfaction when I can help them. Just in case it matters I am a 54 year old liberal lesbian originally from Canada but have been in the states since I was 15. I'm fine if you want to do a background check. I'm a very open and honest person. In my spare time this past years I've stayed home because of covid. Normally though I run a meetup social group. We go to dinners, play cards and other games, hike, camp and basically do a little of everything. That's a little about me. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
