Growing up, we had purebreeds & mutts, a cat, horses, & a turtle named Pokey. My father volunteered on the wknds ar a local farm animal sanctuary caring for injured or orphaned animals. He would always take me along to help. This just solidified my love & drive to work with animals. I fell in love particularly with dogs bc of their unwavering devotion & unconditional love. Pure breed or a mix breed: they are all special. As I became older, I focused on helping neglected, abused or abandoned animals. My boyfriend used to call me Dr. Doolittle & all my friends said if they could be reincarnated, they wanted to come back as my pets. In 2012, after rescuing a sweet basset puppy, I became involved with animal rescue groups facilitating dog rescues from Shelters in the South. From that, I decided to pursue various veterinary academia to assist with my rescue pursuits. In addition to completing the year long AVMA Vet Asst course, I joined forces with several of the largest national animal advocacy groups assisting with large scale animal rescue & care operations. This work is my passion & is deeply meaningful & gratifying to me. I have also volunteered & was an active member at 2 different dog parks boards where I spearheaded several large infrastructure projects. I also was a volunteer for Meals on Wheels x2/week for 5 years. I am a graduate of the EForAll Accelerated Entrepreneurial Program & the year long Cape Leadership Institute Program. I continue to pursue Animal Advocacy Industry Certifications with both the ASPCA & The US Humane Society. I am also studying to obtain my Vet Tech Certification, & CCPDT canine obedience & training certification. My goal is achieving a BS in Animal Behavioral Science. I provide pet care services FULL TIME. I am licensed & insured thru PSI. My PRIMARY FOCUS is the animals under my care. Safety is a huge priority for me. I will take every precaution with all animals under my care. I will always notify Owners immediately if there are safety, medical or behavioral issues or concerns with your pet. For Overnight Pet Sitting: I am very conscientious & considerate of a Client’s property & home. I am organized, neat & will respect & follow all house protocols & rules. I notify owners of any concerns with their home or property. I text photos of all deliveries & notify them of all contractors or other staff on/in the property during visits as a courtesy.
