About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 13yrs old, both young to old and small to big in size. My love for animals makes me pet owner’s #1 call. I have also volunteered my time at my local Humane Society where I use my photography skills to photograph animals for their website and any extra time was spent in playing in the cat room and getting the dogs outside for some play time.

When your pet is with me they have my full attention whether we’re in your neighborhood or my own.

I have never not had a pet and have always made sure to do my research to ensure I am treating any pet in the best way possible along with ensuring what is and isn’t safe for different animals. I have many friends that come to me first when they need help, especially with their animals. Many of my friends have called me a dog whisperer. I currently work full time from home as an accountant. I tend to be home most weekends and my hours make it very easy to fit any animal into my schedule. I have a rabbit currently at my home and my neighbors have a dog, cats, and chickens. I would always make sure that the animal is supervised as I know how important a pet is and the responsibility necessary to ensure it stays safe.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for much of my adult life and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. In the past, I’ve house and pet sat for friends and family, but now that I have two loving dogs of my own, I only offer drop in visits or walks. My dogs are my family, and yours will be treated with the same love and kindness that I show my own. I have a hybrid work schedule that allows me to work from home half of the week. I’m able to dedicate my morning, mid day break, or afternoon and evening to caring for your pet. I am comfortable offering walks, cuddles, drop in visits, feedings, oral medication or prescription administration and any other activity your pet may need in your absence.
