Former Groomer, Animal Lover
Pet care experience
I am a former dog groomer who has been working with furry friends for about 4 years now. Having someone’s fur baby in my care is something I take very serious. I’ve walked, bathed, and cared for dogs of all shapes, temperaments, and sizes. And kitties who love space and cuddles too! I’m well trained in animal behavior and being able to respect and attend to their needs. You can trust me!
Reviews
Athena is so patient and kind!
Athena is am amazing person specially around Pets being experienced with grooming and as a vet tech she is great with all kind of pets!
I found Athena a few years ago to be my dog groomer. She is always so informative and makes sure to update me through the entire process. She’s quick and efficient and super friendly. We love her and will trust her with all of our pets.
Athena has taken care of my 2 dogs on multiple occasions. She goes above and beyond and doesn’t just walk them. She plays with them in our backyard, and gives them lots of pets. They are always excited when they see her.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard and a friendly cat who is more like a dog. I can keep him separate if ever needed. My house is a little over 1,300 sq ft so there’s plenty of space. If you need your pet to be crated I am comfortable with that. As well as if any medication is needed to be given or frequent walks. I will always respect the home of the pet and owner. Just point me where I need to go with some guidance regarding you fue baby’s routine, you are in great hands!
Home
Information Athena S. would like to know about your pet
Just the general temperament and routine your pet follows. What do they enjoy doing, is there anywhere or anything they are limited in doing? Don’t be shy to share with me whatever will help you feel safer while your pet is in my care. Do you need photos of them often? Don’t hesitate to reach out!
A typical day
I love dog parks. If your pet does great with other dogs, I would love to give them that experience. If they are a dog who prefers space from socialization, nature walks are always a great way to burn energy and do a little exploring. If you have cats, I understand things work a little different. I can bring some wand toys of my own, or if you have some I will try to play with the kitty. If it’s clear they need space or time to adjust I have no issue respecting that.

Availability
I work from home part time, so your fur baby will fit in perfectly with my schedule. I am looking for something to do that will occupy more of my time, and what better way than to spend it with a new furry friend to love?!
