I truly believe I was born to be a caretaker. I am kind, compassionate, nurturing, loving, and always attentive to and respectful of a pet's individual needs—whether it's playtime, downtime, or sticking to their routine/schedule. I see and treat pets as kids who view us as their whole world, so I love to care for and involve them in my day-to-day life in return! The past 4 years, I co-parented two amazing black cats, King (Bombay, 8) and Nylah (Burmese, 5). Their individual personalities and quirks always bring me so much joy as a cat mom. They love playing, cuddling, sunbathing, being involved, and even talk back! I treat every pet like family! My sister is a new mom to a pug rescue (Ozzy, 1) who is a cuddle bug and ball of fun. He loves his squeaky toys and going on walks or car rides. Ozzy and I quickly created the most special bond and it’s always so heart warming to be his auntie. My friends (near and far) often rely on me to watch their cats and dogs when they go away and love how I send tons of picture updates of their fur babies! I also have stopped by the local animal rescue to give extra love and attention to those that need it. Growing up, I helped care for our two family pets, Yukon (husky, 15) and Kieta (tabby cat, 18), who both lived long, happy lives. My childhood neighbors also owned a farm with tons of animals to hangout with. I have been around animals for as long as I remember and it always brings so much joy and purpose into my life!
