I have over two decades of experience caring for all kinds of pets including dogs, rabbits, mice, and hermit crabs, as well as several months' experience caring for farm animals. And now, I live on a farm of my own! My recent move to New Freedom, PA allows me to be a stone’s throw from Baltimore while having SO much more space for animals to get the zoomies out. I love animals and spent lots of time outdoors with our own family pet, a sassy diva pug who lived to be almost 17 years old. In the past few years I have on many occasions taken in my friends' beloved pets when they are out of town, and it fills my heart with joy to provide a loving experience for an animal while their "parent" is away. I now have the heart-filling joy of being “mom” to a rescue pug named Finnegan. He is incredibly friendly and gets along very well with all animals (when he’s not sleeping…he sleeps a lot). My occupational background is in preschool and kindergarten education, so I have lots of enthusiasm and patience to boot! I currently work as a Reiki practitioner, and am able to provide animal Reiki if requested! I am a visual artist as well and am available for any pet portraits that may be needed ^_^ I feel a heartfelt connection with animals and nature, and would love to show your pets some affection in your absence :) I work part-time (8 hrs a week) caring for a tutoring two young humans in Baltimore, so I have lots of time on the farm to care for pups :) I love giving animals all the love and cuddles (if they like cuddles) that they so deserve. Walks, play time and running around on our farmland are guaranteed. When boarding in my own home, I have three dog-loving housemates who are also on Rover— so animals are sure to get lots of love and attention!
