Compassionate, Dependable Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I believe love and positivity should be the driving forces behind caring for dogs. Being a sensitive being myself I understand that dogs are just that, hypersensitive intelligent and aware. Also being a proud dog mom of a very active 8 year old Queensland Heeler, and knowing how much my baby means to me, I love and care for each dog as if they are my own. I have over 10 years of experience as a dog caretaker, also as a nanny, and as a senior caregiver. I am empathetic, kind, loving, honest and open. I have a big beautiful home and a large fenced in yard, and love being active outdoors. I have a flexible schedule and am very adaptable. I feel comfortable and an equal love for dogs of all sizes and ages, and I would love the opportunity to work with you and yours!

Athena is a compassionate and responsible doggie caretaker. She excercises her dog by taking her on lovely hikes up in the hills around her home. I have been fortunate enough to have her care for my fur babies and felt totally at ease with them in her care. I would recommend Athena highly! Julianne Kohn

I've known Athena for many years. She's a kind, caring compassionate person with a deep love for animals and children alike. She's taken care of my apprehensive fearful Pomchi with ease and understanding, and is now one of my dogs favorite people! Trust Athena 100% with my pets.

Athena has helped care for my dog in the past and she has always done an awesome job ! Not only is she very caring with animals, but she genuinely loves and cares for their well being. Athena has always been very flexible and willing to work with my schedule. Also, there has been a few times where I needed her help last minute and she came through in the clutch. Needless to say, she has been there for me when things got a bit "ruff". I would highly recommend Athena's services to anyone.

I enthusiastically recommend Athena for your dog's caregiving needs. Athena's your gal if you're looking for a genuinely compassionate and loving dog caregiver. She is hard working, responsible, empathetic, and someone who will go the extra mile to make sure your dog's needs are well cared for. She places extra special importance on the emotional well-being of her own closest companions and will do the same for yours. Athena is a wonderful human-being who will treat your closest companion with the love she deserves.
