Home full-time when I do care

Pet care experience

I am a friendly nurse, who use to rescue strays as a kid. I am rediscovering my old passions. I have alot of compassion for people and animals with special needs.I have an unencumbered nursing license in Florida and VA and take care of elderly , special needs and pets. Pets with special needs are welcome. I have special needs family member so can only in my home have a dog that is good with kids. My kids are great and will enjoy having your companion in our home as a guest. And will help assist with small chores such as given water and snacks. But the complete care is provided by myself and my daughter. I provide updates and pictures during the care. I can also take care of big dogs and dogs that are not good with kids in your home. I am applying for additional insurance.And take online classes for pet care to further my knowledge and be a better caregiver.

Astrid is an excellent caregiver for pets of all needs. I've left my dogs and hamster in her care during my travels and she ensures that they are well taken care of, hydrated, fed, monitored, and temperature controlled. My pets come back happy to me and I'm grateful for all the care she's provided, thank you!
