Everyone who knows me will tell you that I have an incredible love and passion for my family life centered around children and fur-babies. I genuinely care and love above all else. I have been been caring for and rescuing animals for over 30 years. During that time I’ve worked with many rescues and local organizations to provide loving care to foster, rehabilitate, and adopt out hundreds of many cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, etc. I have worked with feral cats in clinics to fix, vet and release. I helped start the Mason Cat Coalition at George Mason University and myself have had a few hundred cats/ kittens over the years. I vetted, cared for or nursed back to health many dogs and puppies. Most found forever homes for many animals- a few adopted me and my home! I am notorious keeping the unadoptable ones! Something important to know about me is that I am extremely meticulous in my care of animals. I have never had an animal get into places, food or medications they were not supposed to, run out the door, get lost, forget to lock the door, etc. This simply does not happen because I treat them as if they were own family members. I am as vigilant as if I were watching your human child. I have experience in providing care for large all the way down to very small animals, seniors, babies and everything in between including some reptiles, hermit crabs, rabbits, small rodents, etc. I’m very patient and calm, which works well with seniors, or animals with special needs including the, administration of medication, or injections. During my visits I also offer free basic training and/or behavioral advice for dogs and cats. I am normally that go-to animal person that other pet care providers go to for questions.
