I've been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember, with a special love for large breed dogs and caring for orphaned or vulnerable animals. I currently have a Rottweiler and two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of providing pets with safe, loving, and reliable care. My professional experience began as a kennel technician at a veterinary clinic, where I worked for over a year caring for dogs and cats, monitoring their health and behavior, administering medications as directed, and maintaining a clean, low-stress environment. I later had the opportunity to train as a professional dog groomer, and I quickly fell in love with the craft. I've now been grooming for over two years and currently work part-time as a groomer in a veterinary clinic. Working in a veterinary setting has given me experience handling pets of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your pet is energetic, senior, shy, or requires extra patience, I'll care for them as if they were my own. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have hands-on experience caring for a variety of exotic and outdoor animals. Over the years, I've personally owned and cared for fish, birds, mice, chickens, ducks, rabbits, and pigs. If your family includes exotic pets, backyard animals, or small livestock, I'd be happy to discuss their specific care needs to see if I'm a good fit. I also have experience caring for orphaned neonatal animals, including tube feeding and providing around-the-clock supportive care when needed. If you're currently fostering orphaned babies or have special care requirements, feel free to reach out so we can discuss how I can help. My goal is always to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving you complete peace of mind.
