As a life long lover of all things animal, I've been a cat owner for my entire life and a dog owner to several dogs in the last few years, not to mention a rotation of foster animals including sickly kittens, undersocialized puppies, and a collection of adult critters. I currently am a fur-mom to my first dog, a three-legged chihuahua; a terrier mix, a lab mix juvenile, and two rescued cats. We recently said goodbye to our hospice baby, a 15-year-old heeler mix who stole our hearts. I have 5+ years of animal shelter experience - I am well accustomed to meeting and befriending animals with a variety of temperaments. I am experienced in giving subcutaneous injections and oral medications. My pets mean the world to me and I hate being away from them. When I can't avoid it, I always want to make sure that they are receiving the best possible care. I'd love to provide that care to your pets and make sure that their time away from their people is as comfortable as possible.
