Hi there! I'm a Southern transplant living in Boston with my rescue dogs Sasha and Lucy, and my dog-loving kitty Sagwa. I moved here 3 years ago to continue my work as a youth mentor, and thoroughly enjoy this little side hustle pet-sitting! I have extensive experience with rescued and family pets, after growing up volunteering for shelters and humane societies. The past few years I served as a foster parent for a rural shelter, and trained to work with reactive/traumatized animals. These skills help me support and nurture pets no matter their background! Fostering injured/disabled animals was a special passion of mine during the pandemic. Quarantine allowed me more time and space to rehabilitate many puppies, kittens, and adult dogs that needed extra support to be ready for adoption. Caring for animals with complex medical issues gave me lots of experience administering medication and accommodating special needs. Now that the world's reopened, I'm loving looking after neighborhood pets. Especially those with unique needs that need someone experienced, patient, and understanding!
